state fairs is generally true of any
parade wherein the national colors
are carried. There are a lot Of peo-
pie who do not realize they must pay
respect to the flag in this manner.
All of which goes to show that the
time is ripe for an educational cam
paign. We must teach our foreign
born population, as we'll as native
born, that Old Glory demands and
must have all the respect we can
possibly give, and that men must
take off their hats when the tlag

Politics 11r England.
(Sprin gfield- Republican

(Sprlngfeld- republican,
British Liberals are naturally ask
ing what meaning lies behind the
publication Of an article in the Lib
eral Daily Chronicle, in which Lord
Miner, who is generally charged with
autocratic methods and distrust of
democracy, is pictured as a Radical
at heart, and, in fact. almost So
cialist. Another Liberal paper hints
at Lord Miners superseding Sir Auck-
land Geddes as head of the new man
power organizations, and says that
such a step would point to the in
dustrial consumption which organized
labor suspects the government Of
having in mind. The placing Of Lord
Miner in control Of the industries Of
the nation would probably accelerate
rather than check the mysterious
revolutionary movement which, ac-
cording to the London Times, has
gained considerable momentum" AT
all events, there is apparently enough
unrest in England to result in po-
litica1 changes before long.

Germany and Ireland.
(Ruffa1o TinneSl

German love for the Irish was born
OF expediency.
The Imperial Government looked
upon Ireland as a desira BILE base of
operations and upon the Irish people
as fitting mediums for the advance
ment of Germany's plans.
Bernstorff recommended intensive
cultivation Of the spirit of unrest ex-
hibited by the Irish and to that end
urged that money and influence be
exerted by German emissaries in this
country as well as in Ireland
Easement was gulled into taking
action that cost him his life and with
the exception of rioting, led by that
body Of irreconcilables which has
ever afflicted Ireland, German plot
ting proved abortive
German propaganda failed as re-
CARDS Ireland and no wonder.
The professions of friendship and
comradeship expressed at that time
for Ireland by Germany was too pal
pably part of the German game.
The true German opinion of the
Irish may be gathered from the fol-
lowing extract culled from the great
German encyclopedia, the Converse
tlons-LeXicOn of Meyer:
The character of the genuine Irish
Is a singular mixture of opposite
traits; many of them, no doubt, de-
Veloped by their unfortunate history.
The main feature of the Irish is incon-
sistency and thoughtlessness, though
they possess such characters as are
compatible with these vices The
lrishman lacks reasoning power, per-
severance and self-control. He pos
sesses a poetical faculty and a taste
for art, music and rhetoric. He Is keen
for knowledge. cunning, clever and
witty, although for the sake of de-
ception he often pretends to the stupid
and naive. But with all his intellec-
tual powers he lacks profundity. Su-
perHcial in his actions and thoughts,
untrustworthy as a worker, lacking
perseverance, and tickle, he Is not
equal to the performance of any great
task in life and is incapable of attain
ing results commensurate with his
spasmodic activity. Those who are
not his relations or friends dare not
trust him. The proverb seems true
that when an Irishman is stabbed, an
other Irishman is always bound to
drive the dagger in. Treason has al
ways been q prominent feature in all
Irish risings. Conscientiousness Is con-
spicuously lacking in the 1rishman,
and he is not distinguished for his
love of truth. Irritable as he is and
inclined to quarrels and violence, he is
fond, too, of amusement. Hosp1table
and extravagant, he forgets to provide
for the future. Though often vic
tim of intemperance, he can put up
with dearth when necessary and is
quite contented If he only has pota-
toes to exc out hts life
That would make good reading al
the next meeting of professional Ger
man-Irish agitators who masquerade
as Friends of Irish Freedom.

THE MAYORS WARNING.

Il am convinced" says Mayor Quig-
ley in formal statement, that the
local dealers who are asking any
where from $1,000 to $11.25 per ton
are charging too much and I have
been unofficially warned that such is
the case. Therefore, as mayor of the
city l would recommend that the peo-
pie wait a week or more before
placing orders for coal at the prevail
ing prices. l think that within a
short time these prices will be mater
tally reduced
Mayor Quigley did not utter those
words merely for the sake of hear
ing himself talk. 1t is presumed that
he went over the situation carefully
considering it from all angles. He
had with him in conference men who
know just what the price of coal
should be at this time. The public
therefore will do well to follow the
advice of the Mayor.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
words of the Mayor may in sum and
substance be taken as an attack on
the coal dealers here: that they m y
in the long run curtsil the sale OF
coal, the dealers can take No excep-
ton to this official action. If the
truth We're known, the coal dealers
might welcome lull in their bust
ness just at this time when the sup
ply is scarce, when the facilities OF
Transportation are tied up, and when
the dealers have troubles of their
own.

"The Mcanest Child On Earth"
waterbury Democracy

The tired child whimpered as his
mother jerked him by one arm In
to an elevator. 1t was plain that his
short legs had been taking three steps
to her one for hours up and down the
long aisles of the big department store.
Shocked women in the elevator gazed
In establishment at the impatient
mother. What a pretty boy, VEN
tured one Of them sympathet1cally
pretty enough when he's asleep
erumbled the mother, but when he's
awake he's the meanest child on
EARTH" And all the other women
wondered if they could believe their
ears. What needless miseries three
vear-old must endure at the hands of
a mother who could say that! The
earth is full of anger the seas are
datk with wrath"-Which makes 1t
doubly necessary for reasonably hu-
man beings to cut down the great
score of the worlds small unneces-
sarv pr1efs. Hundreds of people say
thew can't; but they can reduce the
average of human sorrow greatly oy
being tender In all small ways to all
things great and small.

HITTING THE SUBMARINE T..

Something has happened to the
submarine. 1t is not half so deadly
now as it was a year ago. The news
dispatches of the past six months, in
PARTICULAR, have heralded the decline
of this menace. Now, on top of all
this comes the United States with an
announcement that there will be put
in effect Immediately a reduction of
twenty-five per cent. in the war-risk
insurance rate on steamers and their
cargoes plying between this country
and points on the other side of the
knowledgemen that the submarine
peril has been combatted until it is
not so rampant as before
1t was within the past year that
to her knees within six months, and
this by the persistent use of the sub
marine. Germany was going to starve
out the Entente Allies. Germany was
from America. Yet today the OPP
posite is the case. Germany is the
one which faces starvation, if any
nation does Germany it is who cam
not get shipments from America or
from South America, or from any of
the neutral nations within the shadow
Of her border.
The submarine has been con-
quered to this extent: it is not twenty
five per cent as efficient as it was
at the beginning Of the war Then it
had to fight against unarmed mer-
chantmen. Then it practiced it's arts
and wiles upon passenger ships
carrying non-comb atants innocent
men, women and children. Now the
submarine must go up against fight
ing craft armed with the best guns
money can buy, the guns manned by
the best marksmen in the world,
American tackles. In the last an
alysis it will be found that the
American gunner was the prime
cause of the Gripping of German
submarines and the rendering of them
practically helpless.

The Days Work.
Edgar S. Guest)

edgar s. GueSt).
Is anybody happier because you
passed his way?
Does anyone remember that you spoke
to him today?
This day is almost over and its toiling
time is through;
Is there any one to utter now a kindly
word of you?
Did you give a cheerful greeting to
the friend who came along,
Or a churlish sort of "hoWdy' and
then vanish in the throng?
Were you selfish, pure and simple, as
you rushed along the way,
Or is someone mighty grateful for a
deed you did today?
Can you say tonight in parting with
the day that's slipping fast,
That you helped a single brother of
the many that you passed?
Is a single heart rejoicing over what
you did Or said?
Does a man whose hopes were fad
ing now with courage look
ahead?
Did you waste the day or lose it, was
it we'll or poorly spent?
Did you leave trail of kindness or
scar Of discomfort?
YOU think that God would say
You have earned one more tom orroW
by the work you did today.

The Only Peace.

Continually we hear rumors of
peace. I think the circulation Of
such rumors is injurious to Amer
lea and to the cause Of decency
and democracy. We should make
1t clearly understood that the
conduct of Germany has been
such that we regard as enemies
OF mankind all people who would
strive to bring about peace
based upon treating Germany,
Austria and Turkey on the one
hand, and the Allies on the other,
as standing on footing of equal
Eity. The only peace that will
make the world safe for democ-
|racy is a peace based upon the
complete overthrow of Germany
land the dissolution Of Austria and
Turkey.

Dixie's Land.

The term "Dixie's Land" originated
in New York in the early part of the
past century. 1t is said to have come
into general use when Texas joined
the Union, and the negroes sang OF II
as Dixie
In the popular mythology OF New
yorl, CITY Dixie was the Negroes para
disc on earth in times when slavery
and the slave trade were f1ourishing In
that quarter. Dixie owned a tract OF
land on Manhattan Island. and also g.
large number Of slaves and his slaves
increased faster than his land, an emil
grafton ensued and naturally negroes
who left it for distant parts looked so
It AZ a. place of unalloyed happiness,
and it was the "old Virginny' Of the
negroes of that day; hence Dixie be-
came synonymous with an ideal local
itv combining ineffable happiness and
everv imaginable requisite of earthly
beatitude Press.

S'By Gum, That's Me-"
fWashington Star)

1t is related that in certain news
paper office as a linotype operator was
setting numbers of those drafted, his
eye reached his own number, and
without hating his fingers in their
flying task he exclaimed to his neigh
Dor: by, gum, that's mel" and went
on with his work without further COM

great majority of the young Americans
have taken the news that they are in

Any one Of the men who were
drafted may in a few months be in
the trenches in France, may be facing
the horrid hail of shells and bombs
and the waves of gas and the jets of
liquid fire, may be sent out Of the
trenches across no mans land to storm
the German positions Or may be re-
quired to stand steadfast in the face
of a German attack in force. Any one
Of them may be sent aloft in a swift
airplane to scout over the German
lines and perhaps battle In the air
with a German f1ier. Any one of them
in fact may face death in a thou

comes.
"By gum, that's mel" The prospect
of being one of those in France in all
the perils of war, perhaps to die in
stantly from a shot or shell or to be
manned for life, did not ruffle this
mans nerves or cause him to miss his
stroke on the keys for the fraction of
a second. And the tens of thousands
who i'll a few days will be presenting
themselves before the exemption
