THE DEEP YELLOW (St Louis Republic)
'xassa

The German militarist, victorious, was a high riding, vicious, unbridled beast: the German militarist in de- feat is a yellow, whimpering cur. Today the would be lords of the world are furnishing the nations with a spectacle of whining, cringing hu- mility that is sickening to the point of nausea.
 From the kaiser down to the mean est of his advisers, every one is try ing to shift the responsibility for the war in order to save his own miserable skin. The crown prince, the petty pilferer, who was to have dined in Paris on the Christmas of 1916, now says that he objected to the war and wanted it stopped after the battle of the Marne. Wilhelm the Damned tries to make it appear that Bethmann-Hollweg and Won Ja- gow led him astray. Imagine one of the divinely anointed being led astray by a mere mortal cabinet minister.
 Hindenburg tries to shift the blame on Ludendorsf. and Ludendorff wants it to appear that the general staff in Berlin spoiled it all. Rupprecht of Bavaria says the Prussians are re sponsible for all the brutalities prac- ticed in the war. Everyone of them is trying to save himself from the day of wrath 10 come. To save their petty lives, they are willing to crings and whine and betray their fellow criminals. Faugh! What a spectacle!
 The showing of yellow dates from the very day of the armistice. Can you imagine the United States ac- cepting such terms as the beaten lords of Germany agreed to? Can you imagine Great Britain turning over an unscathed fleet to the enemy, no matter how critical and disheartening the situation? Can you imagine America surrendering New York with

If it is poor pay that is causing the teachers in the Marianna public schools to resign, then it is the plain duty of the board to increase the salaries. If the resignations are handed in because of friction in the faculty, it is up to the board to use it's efforts to bring about harmony and cooperation. The patrons of the school are not so much inter- ested in the causes of the trouble as they are in the fact that the school interests are bound to suffer when the faculy begins to disintegrate in the middle of the scholastic year.

Thanksgiving expresses gratitude for keep it with thoughtfulness, is an oc- casion for a little self examination and some fresh resolves.
 But Christmas is rightly day of generosity and love.
 We make the children happy with toys and candies, we think of the gift which will please mother, wife, sister, husband, and we plan pleasant home entertainments. But Christmas lacks something if our observance of it is bounded by our family circIe and our friends.
 The festival will be an especially joyous one for America this year. The shadow of great and cruel war has been lifted from us We look forward to an era of peace and pros- perity.
 But at the same time there has never been year when generosity was more needed Prices of all com modities are appallingly high, and the little income of many family has been sadly diminished by the ab- sence of one or more of it's wage earn CTS in the army. If we consider this, and, not forgetting our own dear ones, do what we can to bring relief and pleasure to those in need, we shall indeed feel the blessedness of a real Christmas. AS we have been prospered, so let us give.

 ''The influenza situation grows just a little brighter each day. For the 24 hours ending at noon today there were eight deaths in Huntsville, against F for the preceding A hours. Five other deaths were reported from the rural dis tricts, to which the disease has been scattered. Each day we are finding fewer new cases in Huntsville and the situation looks brighter than at any time since the epidemic began. We have a great many cases of pneumonia and may expect many others.
 We have secured doctors enough to handle the situation by working day and night. Eight new druggists are in the city. who have entirely relieved that shortage.
 Miss Cecil Cochran Red Cross nurse of Rochester, N. Y., died at the city hospital this morning. Miss Cochran came to Huntsville to be permanently connected with the health department. She arrived on October 3, just when our epidemic was reaching high tide Her death is one of the saddest in- stances of the epidemic"

PARCELS FOR SOLDIERS

Arrangements have finally been com pleted between the war department, the postoffice and the American Red Cross to provide overseas men with Christmas parcels
 It is the wish of the war department that each man receive only one parcel of a standard size and weight.
 The men overseas will forward to their families or friends coupon or label, which will be the authorization for shipment of the parcel. A mem Der of the family that receives label from man overseas should at once call on the Red Cross, present the label and receive a standard carton or box.
 These boxes or cartons are to be filled by the mans family or friends with the greatest care, so that the weight when filled will not exceed two pounds and 15, ounces. When the car ton is filled it must be returned to the place it was received from, with money enough to pay the parcel post charges to Hoboken, N. J. Boxes must all be returned to Red Cross by Novem- Der IS.
 Special attention should be called to the fact that these cartons will only be given out to the ones who have re- ceived the labels from overseas, and great care should be taken that these lab els received are not misplaced or lost as no parcel will be accepted without this label, and If the label Is lost nc duplicate will be issued. This rule can not be altered by anyone. If you lose the label sent to you os your soldier overseas you cannot sent a Christmas box to him.
 \ As soon as the Red Cross receives the cartons from New Orleans a no tice will be put in ethe papers, and the labels can be brought to the commit tee in charge Look in the papers fol this notice later on.
