We do not wish to provoke or pro

ring to the Editorial in that excellent
pa?e-, the herald this week, on Wi
son. War &C, which was in part a,
follows:
Yes. the President kept us
QUO VI wal two years-something
possibly no other man in the
United States could have done
and 1t is to him that we owe
our not being in war sooner. AS
to Mr.. Wilson being elected
'for that special purpose and
upon that special plea" that is
something new to us.
Yes, He kept us out of war; Elect
Wilson and have peace; Elect Hughes
and have war. Great Scott, Mr.. Her.

stuff is news to you. / would have
almost been willing to miss a covet-
ed week down on Grassy, TO have
been with you, out of ear shot Of
that constant and continuous cry.
Why friend? l can almost hear it
now, and it's news to you, you are
certainly one lucky man. AS to our
reasons for being in war, before God
and man, do you believe that we had
any better reasons for being in war in
March OF this year than we had in
Sept, OF last year Il grant you that
we had a few more reasons, but none
better and is ii exactly to
our credit that we waited so long,
two years, to take up for ourselves
and the under dog?" 1t is not only
my opinion. but really think it is
yours as WELL that we would have
been 500 per cent better off if we
had performed our plain duty and
severed relations with certain people
earlier in the game, we had reasons
in plenty two years ago, not quite so
many, but good alright-Hughes and
Wall Street, yes, politics plays per-
haps too large a part with a lot Of
us at times and those with beams in
their optics are as six of one and
half dozen of the other. All of this
will probably not be appreciated at
it's highest worth by our devoted?
readers. Then too, we may not have
quite understood the intent Of, or
interpreted the tone of the
Herald's original article, really we
rather hope we did not.

This announcement was issued:
THE Navy Department at ) o'clock
this afternoon received word of the
safe arrival at French port of the

information was released announce

ports were twice attacked by sub

life was lost, and while the navy

of toys this year. Then-just when these factories began filling Santas order for millions of dollars worth of toys-the United States entered the war. The American factories were also transformed into war factories Work on the toys was stopped-al- most entirely. The steel, tin and other materials of which toys are made were needed for war purposes. But Santa hurriedly arranged things with the war king and in short time the toy factories were running full blast.
 The toys made here in the United States cost more-Santa Claus will tell you that-but the children will tell you the toys are better than the made in Germany" kind
 In fact the American made toys are so much better that a great part of $4,00O,0O0 worth of toys made in Germany but held up in Rotterdam by the war until just in time to be brought over to this country on the Xmas boat were not used at all and are still occupying shelf space in toy shops throughout the country.
 So you see when it comes to toys , the war had little or no effect on the American youngsters Xmas.

WAR DIDN'T UPSET
 SANTA'S SCHEDULE
Arrived on Time, as Usual, and Makes American Youngsters Happy-TOymakes Busy Max ing Guns and Ammunition.

New York. Dec. 26.-When it comes to overcoming all obstacles and ''get- ting there" Santa Claus can always be counted on.
 He arrived right on time yesterday morning, although nearly one half of the world is engaged in fighting the other half. Many figured the war would delay Santa Claus-that he would have hard time getting around but he was here, there and every where Christmas Eve as the young sters will testify. Transportation problems that would baffle the worlds greatest railway expert were easy for him
 His great trouble this year was with the toy makers. His great toy fac tories in Germany where for many years the majority of Xmas toys were made was otherwise engaged this year Santa's best workmen instead of manufacturing toys for the children of the world were either fighting on the European battlefelds or making guns, shells. submarines and other im- plements of war with which men are killing mec,
 Practically all the great toy fac tories in Europe had long ago ceased manufacturing toys and like the fac tories in Germany were turning out war materials.
 For 8 while this did not worry Santa to any great extent. He was counting on American factories for his supply

GERMANS RUSH|NG
 TROOPS WESTWARD
TrOtsky Tells Peace Delegation of Transfer From East Front - Bolsheviki Commissioners Stop War Preparations.

Petrograd, December 24-Ensign Krylenko, commander in chief of the army, reported to the Bolsheviki head quarters Sunday that the Germans are transferring troops in very large num- bers and as quickly as possible to the western front against the allies and also to the southwestern Russian front
 Leon Trotsky, the Bolsheviki for eign minister, has called the attention of the peace delegation to this fact. A special dispatch from Brest-Litovsk announces the Germans were not ready yet to reply to the Russian peace terms and consequently the meeting of the peace delegates was postponed until Monday afternoon.
 Minister Trotsky has sent tele- gram to his delegates at Brest-Lit- ovsk, in this connection, declaring that if the Germans refused their Social ists passports, this would create such bad impression in Petrograd that it was deemed necessary that the Ger man official delegation which is ex- pected here Thursday should go to Stockholm instead.
 The Bolsheviki commissioners have issued manifesto to all Russian workingmen declaring that as the ar mistice probably will be transformed at an early date into a general demo- cratic peace to all the European peo- pies, preparation of military equip ment is a waste of national labor and funds and that consequently the out but must be stopped immediately and replaced by the production of peace supplies. which the country needs.
 The newspapers announce that delegation from the enemy powers is coming to Petrograd to participate in a conference presided over by Trot- sky. to discuss the political aspects of Ian eventual peace conference.

WAR SERVICE BOARD
 ADDS TWO WORKERS

Little Rock, Dec. 26-As Camp Pike grows, so grows the interests which are associated with Camp Pike. Thus the work of the War Service Board grows. At the beginning the Fosdick Commission was represented by Geo. J. Owen, a Yale man who has been for many months in training camps. Re gently the work has become so heavy that two additional workers were added under Mir. Owen, Messrs. Or chard and Philbrick, both well known Chautauqua and welfare workers be- ing assigned to the local work.
 The War Service Board will soon open its Camp Pike Theater, an inn mense structure seating 4,500, where the soldier for twenty-five cents can see all the big theatrical productions that are being sent the rounds of the cantonments This board is also put ting the finishing touches to the sol diers' club rooms in Little Rock This is maintained by the citizens of Little Rock, though it is under military con trol.
 Mr. Owen has been drafted in Ohio, and while the Fosdick Commission was endeavoring to secure a special detail for him, he was calked up as a deserter. This has been adjusted and Major General S. D. Sturgis has made a request that Mir. Owen be trans ferred to Camp Pike, and he will then be detailed to do the work he is at tending to at present. Mr. Owen has been the prime mover in the program which has brought the people of Lit tie Rock into close touch with the Camp Piker. and much of the relief work that is being done can be traced directly to him.
