THE PRIVILEGE OF SERVICE

THE PRIVILEGE OF SERVICE.
II Service be a Privilege. why then
This is a time most blest of all the
ages.
For on all sides we hear the cries
of men
Above the fields where conflict
madly RACES;
The groans of women in deep de-
spair.
The call of little children full of
sorrow,
Imploring help, and all the loving
care
That We can give. or beg. or steal,
or borrow.
No service is too small for use to
heed.
No man need go no matter what his
station
without his share in softening the
need
or those who grope in tears and
tribulation.

Don't take these stories of declining morale in the
German armies too seriously. Put them up the shelf
and wait for tangible proof of their accuracy Don't
let your thinking about the and its issues be affect
ed by them.
II matters little that such world authority as the
London Times sponsors them. II must be remembered
that the correspondent of the Thunderer the West
ern front probably got his information from German
prisoners and through the devious and msy processes
of gossip and report. He has no way of speaking
thoritatvey of conditions in Germany and of
reports similar those that being cabled from
Flanders have found their way into the newspapers in
the past three years.
Germany may be deliberately inspiring these numer-
stories of her decentralization Her propagandists
are capable of any stratagem affect the prepara
tons in the United States Not only have liberty

feced by reports that Germany is about crack" but
infinite retardaton of our preparations might
be effected if popular impression created that
there really is need of them, because Germany will
give up the fight before have opportunity to make
our power felt.
1t is true that Germany has been prolific of peace
talk lately, and has not concealed her eagerness

that has been tricing out of London lately that the
submarine sting had been largely extracted through
the excellent work of the American destroyers and the
devices for protecting merchant ships.
But the immediate of Won Capele's resigna-

where the dread specter of muSiny has broken out
That INSTRUMENTATION has been stamped out with
tomary Teuton thoroughness; but the attempt to

power in the Reichstag has been boomerang of the
type which has so often made German diplomacy

They flame with indignation the charge that they
could plot treason to their country and foment

Became a Bit Wearied.

The conversation at a recent social affair turned
to the beautiful indifference of some children when
this story was fittngly related by Representative
Frank L. Greene, of Vermont.
Recently small party named Bessie had birth
day, and little girl friend of her own age was
invited to come around and help her celebrate the
glad occasion. Both given cake and things and
afterwards they happily pranced off to the upper part
of the house
Two hours later the mother of Bessie went to look
for the children and found her sweet child sitting
alone in great armchair nibbling on a remnant Of
the dainty repast.

of the little giant from Wisconsin.
there are strong indications that with
out much difficulty the report could
be made to recommend expulsion
with the chance that 1t might carry
surprisingly strong vote with 1t IN
the Senate.
Tuesday when La Toilette himself
will appear before the committee
that is, IL he accepts the commit
tees invitation to be there on that
day. II he shows that he is as dis
loyal as some of the members Of the
Senate now believe with all their
hearts that he is, he may be treated
to anything but a whitewash. But
IL he shows slight traces OF American
ism It is probable he will be allowed
to remain In the upper house.
From the statements of some OF the
members today it appears that La
Toilette would have stood much bet
ter with his colleagues had he con-
fined his remarks to the Senate floor.
When he went out on the open stump
and breathed sedition and disloyalty
he lost the sympathy OF some of the
men who have been with him to this
date. Likewise he lost support when
1t was found that he disregarded the
explicit instructions of the invitation
committee at the St Paul farmers
meeting, aand went ahead and talked
on lines which the committeeman
urged him to avoid.
La Toilette himself is chipper as a
new recruit in the army. He smokes
his cigars and laughs and cracks
jokes up and down the halls of the
Senate Office building. He appears to
be laboring under no strain at all
not merely as great a strain as some
OF the Senators think he should labor
under, under the circumstances.
