EUROPEAN NEWS AND VIEWS.

London, Jan. 26-(By Union Asso-
ciated Press)-Although his peace eff
forts have been misunderstood in
many quarters, there is no denying
the fact that the sincerely Of Presi-
dent Wilson has greatly impressed
the British people. During the past
fortnight the press has assumed a
kindlier attitude toward his peace en-
beavers, so that Americans are said
to have written Washington to the
effect that ever another note would
create the impression of Mr.. Wilson's
Quitting in" Although England is
closely bound to Spain by ties Of a
r~iage-the Queen Of Spain being an
Englishwoman-as we'll as by ties Of
diplomacy, it is believed that Mr.. Will
sons peace attempts would be prefer
able to any action by Spain in the
matter.
Everywhere one hears %prophesies of
the conditions which will exist among
governments after the war.
One of the most interesting is to the
effect that in Germany there will be
a liberal form of government, because
the Germans will have lost the war
and will argue that their autocratic
form Of government has proven a fail
ure, so they will try another. But
the South German monarchies will
dispose the Kaiser from being the
head Of the German Empire and will
give their allegiance to Emperor
Charles of Austria, as Emperor of
Germany.
Poland will be united under a Rus
'ian grand duke as King Of Poland, a
hereditary title. Great Britain, which
began the war under a Liberal gov
eminent, will become Imperial and
Tory, for the British Empire has
realized that the easy going and in
ways of the Liberals were
he cause of the empire being unpre-
jared and at the mercy Of her enem-
es. So they intend to organize the
under almost an autocratic
government.

our CUssIN' THE "5Io UNs."

As an outgrowth Of demogoguery in politics, it had become quite the GUS tom for some time past among us to cuss the ''big uns" in everything. Big business was a popular target < so- clalistic view that everything CO., op- erated by design for the oppression of the little feller" was gaining ground
 Then came the day of big trials and big sacrifices, and the "big uns" began to come to the front. It has been es- tablished that the big interests are doing their bit" heroicly and will ingly.
 This not alone proved up in the war demands, but in every other line When the time came to cut the table fare in observance of meatless and wheatless days. the big hotels were the first to adopt the rule, and set the pace in it's enforcement
 But recently 1t was found that che gas supply was to be put to a severe test because of the uniform cold over the state. The big consumers were called on. They were shifted over to other fuel. They responded not alone in deed, but in spirit of gladness to make their sacrifices in behalf of the numerous small consumers who would have been menaced with the gas sup ply insufficient
 Politicians hereafter who attempt to bait the public with distorted state ments about the oppression of the ''big uns" will find that there is an entirely different view taken of things now, and that the people have come to know that humanity is much tho same whether it is in the ranks of the if nancially successful or those who have not been so fortunate in their striving

A Happy Woman.

And that is not the only good work that has come to the attention of the Stroller in the country districts, either The Moonlight Schools are rapidly growing, and the enthusiasm in them is unbounded
 There is one woman attending a school of this nature" said one of the country teachers 10 the Stroller "who is 47 years of age. She cannot read Or write, That is, she could moi until the school opened. Her prog ress has been remarkable Today she can write little sentences Of from eight to ten words, and she is learn ing to read, and she is the happiest woman, | believe, in America today, It is worth while to give ones effort to a project of this nature when the results are so great and immediate.

There will be a genuine treat in store for the people of this city Fri day. December 21, when Congressman Goodwin, of this state, will address the people of Hot Springs, speaking under the auspices of the local chap ter of the Red Cross.
 Now the Stroller realizes that Con gressmen have been here ere this. We have had United States senators and even vice president, and Teddy" has been with us, but none of them ever had the story to tell that Con gressman Goodwin will relate, for, you see, he was member of the congres- sional party that paid a visit to France, went into the trenches and was, in fact, under fire from the Ger man guns. The Stroller learned of the engagement that had been made for Congressman Goodwin from Rev. Dr. C. E. Hickok, one of the active Red Cross workers, and he, in turn, was given the glad tidings by Dr. Leonard Ellis, who received tele- gram asking if Hot Springs would care to have Congressman Goodwin speak here the night of December 21.
 Would we like to have him?" asked Rev Hickok. Say, did an overcoat feel comfortable Saturday morning? should say We would like to have him and we will arrange such a re- ception for him. under the auspices of the local Red Cross chapter, as will make him glad that he came to this city"
 Congressman Goodwin did not come home empty handed He was in France when the American gunners fired the first shot into the German ranks. He did not get the initial shell, for that was sent to Presi- went Wilson, but he brought back an empty" that was among the first fired and he treasures that shell as much as he does his certificate of election Here Is an opportunity to hear a story that cannot be told by news agencies Here is first hand in formation. and the city is to be con- graduated that Congressman Good win will detail what he saw to it's citizens.

Does This Interest You.

The Stroller is in receipt Of a con- munication from the war department, calling attention to the 10000 expert mechanics of various trades now ur- gently needed for the United States air service. The following ought to be of interest to those men who are subject to the next draft who could qualify for this part of the service:

The U. $. air service (official title, aviation section of the signal corps, U. s. army) needs 10000 ex- pert mechanics of various trades All who have not been required to regis ter can volunteer at any time they desire to do so, but those who are within the draft age must enlist be- fore December 15. lf they do not en- list before this date, they cannot

choose the branch of the service they desire. All men desiring to enlist should report 10 the nearest recruiting officer, before the 18th of December, to give time for making out all the necessary papers in their case, so that every thing can be completed before the 18th.
 2 The army air service must have mechanics who can be absolutely trusted If the training of these men is not utilized just so much adyan- tage is gained by the enemy and s certain number of lives must be paid as the price. This means is being taken to keep these men from being drafted and (their ability not being known), assigned where they would not be so useful to their country.
 3. This service is the newest and probably the most interesting oi all branches of the army, and the public seems always anxious to know what is being done in it. Voluntary en- listment for this branch of the ser vice was closed some six months ago, but has now been reopened for d short period (from now to December 15) and for this reason it Is desired to give every qualified man the chance of availing himself of this op- portunity

Is Gettlnn Results.

There is a great deal of patriotic work being done in this county of which little or nothing is said, and like all big features of worthy kind, it is getting results. The Stroller re fers to the campaign of education that is going on in the country, which was arranged by County Superintendent David Crockett. Several weeks ago attorneys and other men who have been making public speeches since the war started agreed to accept en- agreements in country districts and they have been faithful in this re spect Last Sunday the Stroller at tended a meeting of this nature down at Lawrence, and today, in spite Of the cold weather, there will be speeches made in various sections of the country.

Hot Springs is proud of this rec ord. We are proud to have been able to make such a showing within the first seven months of the war, and we hope that for every seven months of the war We will be able to make az substantial a showing in financial support Of each and every demand that this war has created.
 But there Is another and practical side of the situation that is now be- ing considered by the business inter cts, and that practical side is along the line of how to keep up this record of helpiuH ess. The only way to be able to help is to supply the home hsse, and because of this, every man, who is not so short sighted as to be blind to bis own interests. should not alone feel. but echo a spirit of co -op- eration for the things that will make Hot Springs prosperous

PHHLS ARE ABOUT
OUT OF RUNNING

New York. Sept. 6.-All doubt re-
garding the ability of the Giants to
hold the advantage they have gain
ed in the National League race has
been swept aside today.
The decisive manner in which Nc
Graw's team disposed OF the Phillies
on Tuesday is looked on as an indi-
cation OF what may be expected of
them during the remainder of the race.
The Giants have their heads up now.
They are full of fight and ginger and
they are as good as in with the
pennant, for should they do no bet
ter than break even for the remainder
of the season the Phillies would have
to win twenty-five out Of thirty-two
games to beat them out.
The Boston Red SoX are still play
ing with dogged persistence in their
efforts to catch Chicago in the Amer
lean League, but with the passing OF
each day their chances are dwindling.
Meanwhile the White SoX are putting
up the best brand of baseball they
have played all season. Rowland S
team is hitting and fielding in flashy
form, and his strong pitching stan
shows no signs Of wavering.
