NO NEED no MINCE WORDS.

There has been no doubt from the
first I'm the minds of sudious men
that Germany was really guilty Of
planning and provoking the present
great war. For long time people of
sober minds hcsitatcd To express a
belief to that effect for In trying to
bc fair with Germany and earn rep
utation for neutral intent We have
leaned over the other way and have
been more disposed to give the benefit
of every doubt to the kaiscr's govern
mcnt than TO be absolutely lust to
tho kaiscr's enemies But that time
is past. There IS no longer any need
Of glossing over German duplicity and
barbarity nor of minimizing Ger
mauy's ovcrwecninE ambition to con
trol the world. Not that her oppo-
nents are without blame In many
WAYS. but the actual cucouragcmont
of every tendency that led toward n
test Of strength between the govern
mental principle represented by the
central powers and the democratic
lcanincs of the rest of Europe was
the work OF those entrusted with the
control of the German empire.
Some people yet resent the imputa-
tion that Germany has for forty
years planned and prepared for this
event The fact that they strained
every nerve to make their nation IN
yincille and irresistible might be ac-
counted for by the undeniahle fact
that they rested in n hotbcd OF in
tcrnntional jcalousies and grudges
which might at any time flame out
into war. Yet 1t is equally undeniahlc
that they did not wait for anybody TO
challenge their power. but threw
down the gauntlet nj n time OF their
own choosing II is n fable that the
killing OF prince 10y Serbian
fanatic caused the war. II only fur
nished the pretcNt for which Ger
many was looking and gave her an
excuse to strike at a time when the
advantage was strongly In her favor
The diplomats knew that the insist
ence OF Austria on Furnishing Serbia
hy force OF arms would meet with u
substantial protest from Russia, and
the first move of Russia furnished a
rreteNt for German interference and
involved France.
Students of events agree that the
entrance Of England into tho war was
not on the German program, but then
II was not thot that her Interference
I'm view Of her well known unpre-
paredness could have much weight In
the result. which II would not had not
the unexpected strength of Belgium $
resistance delayed the German ad-
vance and given her enemies chance
to catch their breath. These things
have been gone over many times since
they happened. with varying opinions
as to motives and facts, hut as time
goes on and clearer vision supercedes
conjecture Il becomes more and more
apparent that Kaiser wilhelm Is
guilty of provoking the greatest crime
OF the century.

A SHOT THAT COUNTS.

Naturally everybody is Gratificd al
the news that German submarine
has been sunk 10y n shot fired 10y an
American gunner from the deck OF an
American ship. 1t Is further crafty
ing that the shot was not inspired
solely by the fact that the two ma
tons are at war. but was n matter ~
getting the drop on an enemy who
was seekng to attack. Altogether II
IS n croditahlo performance and one
that can cause no regrets. We are
pleased that I'm this first bolligerent
encounter between armed vessels or
the two powers ours should have
come off victor The sinking Of one
submarine is not such great thing
In itself-in fact, It is only drop In
the bucket OF the Job We have under
taken to do but the moral effect OF
this encounter will be much greater
than any material damage we have
done to the enemy.

One Exception.

"While the farmers are deploring the
shortage of help we have a vast army
Of able-bodied men performing useless
tasks" stated Professor Pate. "Take
the solicitors who come to our doors
with labor-savng utensils that abso-
lutely must be in every household in
the land, who take our cherished tin
types and return enlarged crayon
copies of the same that look like mo-
body on earth or in the waters under
the earth, and so forth. If such futile
trades were abolished these industrial
slackers might be persuaded to help
feed the nation in this crisis. ! have
purposely refrained from including in
the list the suave gent who offers or
nate literary works to the few people
In each community who are Of suf-
ficient culture to appreciate them. In
order to remain normal and keep well
we are obliged TO have somebody to
hate, and for that purpose the book
agent Is ideal."-Kansas City Star.

TESTED THE DENTISTS WORK
khedive of Egypt Had Followers
Teeth Pulled So He Could See
Whether 1t Would Hurt.
Markham 81 Markham,
Plaintiffs Attorneys.

To illustrate Oriental habits Of
thought, Lord Cromer tells, in the
Quarterly Review, this story Of Ismall
Pasha, the khedive of Egypt. 1t once
happened that Ismail was suffering
from toothache. He sent for a Euro
pean dentist, who told him that he
ought to have the tooth out. Ismail
said that he was afraid it would be
very painful. He was informed in
reply that, if he would allow the den
list to administer laughing gas to him,
he would feel nothing. He still doubt
ed, but told the dentist to bring his
apparatus to the palace and he would
then discuss the question.
The dentist complied, and explained
the process to the khedive. Ismail then
summoned an attendant and told him
to send up the sentry who was at his
door.
When the man arrived the khediye
ordered him to sit down in a chair,
and requested the dentist to take out
a tooth on either side of his jaw.
Ismail then asked the man whether
he had felt anything, and the man
told him that he had not. But Ismail
was not yet satisfied. He said that
the sentry was young, strong man,
and that he would like to see the ex-
pertinent tried on someone of weaker
physique.
Accordingly he summoned a slave
girl from the harem and had the den
fist extract two of her teeth. Find
ing that she did not show evidence of
extreme suffering, he then consented
to have his own tooth out. 1t is re-
lated, although possibly that part of
the story is apocryphal, that the den
fist then received an order on the
Egyptian treasury for one thousand
pounds.

THURSDAY, JULY u 1917

One OF the most deplorable phases OF
that horrible affair at East st. Louis,
H., Is the effect it must have on race
relations in this country at time when
we all, black and white and every shade
between, ought TO forget prejud.ces
and overlook compilations in our e1hi-
bition Of national unity and devotion
to our common flag. An American
citizen is no less an American citizen
because he is black, but it is difficult
to make him feel that way when he
sees men and women of his race butch
cred because of their color. Such out
RACES as this inevitably must have the
effect Of filing our colOred citizens
with resentment when we expect them
TO be filed with patriotic fervor, Can
we expect negroes to love and honor
the flag when under it they fail to find
protection against assault and murderY
Can we expect enthusiastic response
from them to the call for national ser
vice with the memory OF East St.
Louis literally burned into their
minds?
IT is regrettable when a mob wreaks
summary vengeance upon an indiydu
al for crime richly meriting the Sc
verest punishment, but when a commu-
nifty permits lawless inhabitants to
indulge unhndered in a wholesale car
nival OF arson and murder to satisfy
its hatred OF black skins, it is not
merely regrettable-it is crime
against the country. 1t reeks with
dangerous menace for our future.
In justice to the colored people Of
the United States; in justice TO all
law abiding citizens, black or white;
in the name Of common decency and
all humane instincts, the East ST. Louis
crime cannot be condoned, excused or
overlooked. Failing to satisfy, by our
action in this case, the outraged sense
Of justice Of our colored citizens-fail-
ing to convince them that a negro still
has rights in this boosted land Of hu.
man liberty, and that he is not an out
cast and outlaw, TO be prosecuted or
killed with impunity-we shall have
laid the foundations for grave domestic
trouble at time when we stand In
need Of national unity. Two weeks
ago the American negroes were re-
sponsive to that need Today thanks
TO east st. Louis their enthusiasm has
changed to doubt, and many Of them
are sullen. what? 1t is
for us TO decide?

5000 VOLUMES IN ONE WORK
Encyclopedia of the Literature of
China, Covering % Centuries, Is
Remarkable Production.

The Chinese department of the Brit
ish museum library contains a single
work which occupies no fewer than
5000 volumes. This wonderful pro-
duction of the Chinese press was pur-
chased some years ago for $500, and
is one of only a very small number of
copies now in existence.
1t is an encyclopedia of the litera-
ture of China, covering a period of 2S
centuries. 1t owes its origin to the
literary procllvities of the Emperor
kang-he, who reigned from 1862 till
1922. In the course of his studies of
the ancient literature of his country
Kang-he discovered that extensive cor
ruptlOns had been allowed to creep in
to the modern editions, and conceived
the idea of having the text of the or
iglnals reproduced and preserved In
an authorized form.
This was a mighty conception, truly,
and in the execution it remains unique
down to the present time. For the
purpose of carrying out the work,
Kang-he appointed a commission Of
learned men to select and collate the
writings to be reproduced, and en-
ployed the Jesuit missionaries to cast
copper types with which to execute
the printing. The commission was oc-
cupied for 40 years in Its great task.
Before the work was completed
Kang-he died. but he had provided that
his successor should see the book COM
pleted, and he faithfully carried out
his trust. The book is arranged in
six divisions, each dealing with par
tcular branch of knowledge.

Cats as Hunters.

Dr. A. A. Allen, professor of birds
Mt Cornell, suggests that anyone who
Is skeptical about the hunting ability
Of the cat should go out in the early
fall morning after a light snow fall
and track the wild animals of the
nearby woods. Perhaps you will find
the tracks Of red squirrel; squirrels
are very clever and usually manage
20 exist even in cities. Perhaps you
will find the tracks Of a cottOntail or
two; rabbits are very prolific and
stand Il great deal of persecution.
Probably you will find the tracks of a
few rats and mice ; but be assured you
will find Puss-in-Boots In force, her
tracks crossing and recrossing. Doc
tor Allen does not believe there is a
place in the eastern United States
within five miles of human habita-
ton where you will not find the tracks
of the domestic cat more frequently
than those of any wild animals, squlr-
rels, rabbits, mice excepted. Trappers
catch them In their traps set in the
wildS far from houseS.-Grlt.
