Kaiserism Must 60.

We publish in another
column President Wilson's
reply to the proposition for
an arrnistice for peace. in or.
der that there might be a
discussion of the terms of
peace between the bellige-
rents, made by the Chancel-
lor Of the Imperial German
Government. The Presidents
reply is a straight, clear and
direct rejection Of the propo.
sition. 1t, in our opinion,
should end the matter, aud
convince our crafty enemy
that there can be no cessa.
tion Of hostilities-no discus
sion IF peace between the al
lied nations and the govern
ment of the Kaiser. Peace
with him and his military
mini0ns will be a dictated
peace, made after their IN.
conditional surrender. AT.
tor the obstruction Of the
monster evil that has throt.
tied their liberties, the freed
and free German people will
get q fair benefit of i,lst and
lsstiag peace which will come
With it's blessings to all the
hberty.loving peoples Of the
earth.
As we understand it, this
war should and will continue,
not only until the Kaiser and
his militarism is destroyed,
bat until the government of
the Autocrat anywhere on
earth, is made impossible.

THOUGHT THAT CAME
TO OUR MIND.

While Mr.. Cliff Williams ard the
two gentlemen who were accompany
ing him were addressing the meeting
in the interest of labor conservation
and Everybody work." at the Court
, House on Thursday night of last week
the thought came to US that if the ar
gun,ent which was being offered by
MI. Williams was sound-and We
heartily subscribe to ito let the
women do it" wherever possible so
as to allow more men for War work,
why not let the women take the places
of these gentlemen Also? What is
good sauce in One place for the geese
should also do tolersbly we'll at least
for the gandefs elsewhere. OF course
we are not attempting to pass upon
the military fitness Of any n of
these gentlemen, but certainly two of
them have the appearance Of the abili.
ty to perform at least raoderate Mill
tary duties.
Now what will apply IN this case
will apply in every other. We are
heart and soul with the Government
in every movement and we APPRECIATE
fully the great Importance ST the
work entrusted to Mr.. Cliff Williams
and his coadjutory, but we confess
to having little patience or sympathy
for those fellows, capable of military
service, who have wiggled into places
whether it be Red Cross, Y. M. C. A..
or any other war activity that means.
safety from war ~hardahips. The.
Government does NOT always know
who is being recommended. We are
sure it is no. the .intenvionl of the
Washington authorities to allow any
man to slip into a safe retreat lob
who is subject to military duty. But
we know some who have.

IN the conservation order the nool

TOWN LADIES DEFER
SATURDAY TRADING

A committe representing the mer
chants of Grenada waited on We Edi.
tor Monday afternoon requesting that
he say a few words to the good ladies
OF Grenada about their shopping on
days other than Saturdays.
1t is a we'll known fact that helm is
scarce and that every line of business
is suffering from this fact. The mer-
chants state that so many of the. la
dies OF Grenada do a part of their
shopping on Saturdays, whereas they
could just as well wait until Monday.
or some other day in the week. Help
IN all the stores is so scarce that if is
not possible to give the town ladies
the attention they could get on any
other day in the week. The country
people, many of them, find it more
convenient to come to town on Satur-
day than any other day.
Another matter also is the item of
delivering parcels. The merchants
ask that their customers be a little
hasty in demanding immediate
delivery. This is becoming more and
more a problem with the merchants
and the good ladies should as far as
possible be ready and anxious to CO.
operate with the merchants and carry
heir w parcels.
The Sentinel feels that any seeming
ack OF cooperation on the part of
'ur ladies', is caused more by thought
essness than from any other cause
md that after it is brought to their
.ttentlon .~theywill do their part and
it well.

OXFORD EAGLE
CHANGES 'FRONT.'.

The Oxford Eagle has seer a light
and has reached that point where it
has actually written an editorial d.
rectlng attention to seditious utter
ances. This calls to mind the fee-
ing flcher who cried out to the DO
lice while pointing towards another
man, stop the thief" We are
glad that the Eagle has had itself
shaken up enough by the recent
earthquake primary to make it real
lze that at least something should be
said about the damage to our country
OF harmful criticisms of the Govern
ment. Only a few weeks back there
vas matter in the editorial columns
OF the Eagle that ran dangerously
near "seditious." Possibly the Ea-
giles latest deliverance is meant to
enter a plea of "'having acted with
out knowledge or information"
