stand that the issuss involved in this dreadful war must be set tied and settled right before the world may hope for abiding peace.
 Therefore, if anyone asks you what you think about the war, re- ply as follows:
 President Wilson was right when hs said the world must be made safe for democracy. The Ameri- can people have no desire to de- stroy Germany or prevent it from resaining commercial importance. They want Germany to restore the stolen property and go home in chasteued mood. They want 10 jam the knowledge into every close cropped Prussian head that just be- cause a man owns a high-priced au-- tomatic gun and has lot or am intuition and college education he has no right to go out and shoot up his neighbors. The American people are hoping to make it clear to the Kaiser and the Grown Prince and the various squar-jawed Hlnd- enburgs that it is highly improper to form q partnership with God as silent partner. As to the final outcome, the Battle of the Marne was the beginning of the end. For 200 years all the big events of his- tory have marked an irresdble ad- vance toward the establishment or democracy. When the Germans failed in their mad rush of 1914, it meant that an All-Wise ProYi- deuce and the laws of evolution were not to be thwarted by milt- tsry despot with 8 bristling mus tache. Germany can not win and therefore Germany must lose. She end of blooGshed and sacrifice and wides bread terror will come as socn as the United States of Am erica begins to strike aggressive blows. The more men We send to the front, the fewer we will lose. Our greatest enemy at present IS Indecision. Our strongest ally is Speed. Our most needful watchwoN Faith. We ale going to end the war and then sit at the council ta- ble to repress greed and curb in justice"
 or course, the foregoing will sound rather hifaluting to come from a six-year-old child, but it will be the truth, and the truth is needed in large doses at present, eS- Ipecially by people more than six years of age.
 That will be all for today, chil- dreu. You may run along and play

DOLLY SUFFERS;
 UNCLE PROFITS

Many hands make light work" and it surely was LIGHT work that the many little hands were making W hen a man from the Alaskan office happened by the Red Cross rooms yesterday where some score or more little Amrican patriots were busily engaged in making fluffy pillows which are intended for use by the Red Cross nurses in caring for the wounded soldiers in France.
 These little lassies were all cut ting narrow strips of clean white cloth into tiny squares, and then unrayeling each bit until nothing but a heap of the finest and whit est and cleaneSt lint remained. The4e heaps wre put into little pillow slips and daintily tied shut. Then a seam was sewed longitudinally through the center, making a fluffy puff with a valley in the center.
 Say. you grown ups, you great big strong men, remember these ardent little workers. Remember that they go direct from their lessons to the Red Cross rooms without first running home for the proyerbial piece of bread and jam. Stop and think what lot of joy you would take out of sending a trifling box of goodies to the rooms for little four o'clock lunch. Do your bit, and better still, just happen Rround and see with what earnest zeal, and glowing pride each one of these Skagway jewles is Doing Her Bit, and also remember that while these little girls are working for Uncle Sam, dolly's fall sewing is being sadly neglected.

Advice to Americans Six Years of
 Age and Under

Can mere child be of service to his or her country while We are trying to make the Kaiser behave?
 Undoubtedly,
 How?
 By observing the conduct of weak kueed, hysterical, and complaining adults and then being just as differ euI trt m them as possible.
 This war Is neither 8 joke nor a protracted funeral.
 You will notice that some of the older people refuse to accept it as a fact. while others move about in 6 blue funk, exclatming, between sobs, that the L. s. A. is going to the boE-wows.
 Let the very young children set their elders a good example by re- maining calm but determined.
 If you pick up the morning paper and read that the U-boatj bagged l7 ships instead of the customary l. and the Canadians captured only one line of trenches instead of two do not shake your head and declare that the Germans never can De licked.
 Set a good example to your fath- srs and mothers and uncles and auuts by renewing your faith daily, in spite of an occasional setback.
 Quote to them the words of Abra- ham Lincoln: Let us have faith that right makes might and in that faith let Us, to the end, dare to do our duty"
 You might remind your groWn-up relatives that all during the Civil War the Northern States haroored |" good many well-meaning people WhO went about moaning that the Un- ion never could be preserved and We had better accept peace at any price.

BERLIN PAPERS
STILL HOPEFUL.
FOR PEACE SOON

Berlin, Jan. 3.-The reply Of the en-
tente peace proposals Of the central
powers were discussed at great length
this morning by the newspapers. The
papers are unanimous in saying that
the answer of the entente is only what
was to be expected in view of the at
titude Of statesmen for the hostile ma
tons. I
The Tageblatt believes that the idea
OF peace retains it's vitality, saying:
Even though the attempt be made
to bury it under a thousand argu-
ments, peace will continue to rise up
mightier than ever after every failure
to achieve expected victory"
The Socialist newspaper Vorwaerts,
which has been the leading peace or
gan OF Germany for many months,
still holds that the policy of attempts
ing to find new means of TERMINATING,
the war must continue but that tho
defense Of the country must go ON
without tagging. It contends that the
responsibility for continuance OF the
war rests with the entente
