Moderate Terms, but Hard
Fighting.

If you are conscious that your own
objects are wholly altruistic, or that
they are at least reasonable in the ma
ture and extent of their self-Seeking,
ii does not follow that you must make
war in moderate, inoffensive fash
ion. II the enemy were also altruistiC
or reasonable in his desires, il would
be monstrous thing to make war
upon him at all, because reasonable
and generous nations must find peace
full ways to remove misunderstood
ings. We are at war with Germany be-
cause that nation is wrong both in the
objects it pursues and in the methods
by which it seeks to gain its ends. II
stakes everything upon the use OF
force guided by such intelligence and
skill as have never before been
brought to the service of warfare.
There is no moderate course, there
fore. to be pursued in meeting the
German military organization. No ar
gument can now be used against Ger
man militarism but that of an ade-
quate oppositisn expressed in terms
of military efficiency. Germany pro-
poses to achieve certain things for her
self, regardless of the rights of others,
by sheer power. This is a condition
that cannot be met by argument or a
display of sweet reasonableness.
Either German force must be sue
cessfully opposed by force, or the
world must econcile itself in advance
to the consequencesof German VIC
tory. From 'The Progress of the
World" in the American Review of
Reviews for July, 1917.

What Women Are Doing In
War.

Anna Steese Richardson who is
running the department for exchange
of ideas for patriotic service in the
Woman's Home Companion, says in
the August number:
"Women the country over are or
ganizing to serve their country. Many
of the organizations, devised to give
efficient help in desperately needed
work, nevertheless prove dissappoint-
ing to women who wish to join them.
These women find, on investigation,
that the work OF the organizations is
too complex, or that they require more
than the average woman can give,
or that the efforts are duplicated by
others, or that the output of work is
not satisfactorily distributed, or even
that ii cannot be used at all.
"Often the women who would like
to help, and whose help is really
needed, become confused by commit
tees and subcommittee and divisions
and subdivisions of subcommittee.
The intricacies of organizations are
difficult for most Of us to grasp, and
in relief work OF such vast proportions
as that occasioned by this war il is
impossible to keep the mechanical de-
tails simple and direct"

The Grand Army will assemble at

ready TO move at the moment. The
various troops Of BOY Scouts will as

and will form one Of the leading Sec
tions Of the parade They should
have their buglers and drums, carry

II has been decided that the auto
owners would prefer to drive with the
marching column rather than to form
separate parade as that would de-
tract from the enthusiasm of the oc
casi0n
The Retailers association has
asked the mayor to proclaim all busl-
ness suspended from $3.50 till 500, so
that everybody may be able to parti-

Chief Mitchell will he ihe head

chief marshal Immediately on arrival
that they may be assigned to their
proper pace in the parade.
The committee in charge of the
torehlight parade at p m sharp, has
need Of some patriotic young men who
will report to Chief Mitchell before
six that afternoon that they will take
part in the short parade through the
principal business strets. This
parade will be over in good time for
the mass meeting at the Federal

make It necessary, the mass meeting
will he held in the auditorium OF the

made by Guthrie citizens.
In most OF the cities, even smaller
than Guthrie, over the state. the en-
Tire day has been devoted to the
initial patriotic demonstration, the
entire business being suspended for
the whole day.
II is hoped and believed that
Guthrie will not fail in her full and
prompt performance OF all her duties,
and that she will make this rousing
outburst of patriotic enthusiasm such
as has never before been seen In this
city and county And that Il viii be
hut the mild beginning Of the many
similar imadents which are to follow.
