THE PURPOSE OF REGISTRATION

The purpose Of the registration next Thursday is not
to render persons liable to military service. That liabil-
ity exists already, and congress has the right to say how
and when men may be called on for the service to which
all men OF military age are liable. The registration is a
sort Of census Of the man-power Of the country, By
means of 1t the government ascertains how many men
there are in the country between certain ages, and as
certains certain facts with reference to them. On the
basis Of this information it selects from the entire num-
Der those who may most properly be called into actual
service first, and it groups the others into various class
es according to the order in which they stand with ref
erence to availability.
With the exception Of persons already in the ser
vice Of the United States in certain designated military
or civil capacities. all male residents must register, and
must answer the questions which are propounded on the
registration thanks. That being done, the rest will be
handled by the appointed agents OF the government.
1t cannot be too strongly urged that every person
within the prescribed ages. IS to IS. inclusive. present
themselves at their polling places and register as pre-
scribed by law. To fail to do this will be to incur penal
ties, and failure to register will in No sense avoid mill
.ary liability. The Individual who fails to register, -
addition to .upjc:'ing himself to fin, or inhrrisc nment.
or both. win. when detected. be registered in any case.
and he will have impaired his standing as a e4,zen W
his failure.

THE CZECHO-SLOYAK NATION

The Allies are committed to the establishment on
q secure basis of a self-governing Czecho-slovak nation.
The larger nations engaged in this war as our associates
have recognized the Czecho-slovak forces now operat-
ing in Russia as a regularly constituted body, and the
United States has gone a step further, and declared the
Righteousness Of the demand of these people to a ma
tional home, a place where they can live and govern
themselves in their own way. The same principle is
either expressed or implied in the notes of recognition
issued by other powers.
The inference is that Bohemia and some Of the
neighboring provinces will be separated entirely from
the Austrian empire. and that there will be erected be-
tween the Teutonic empires and reconstructed RUSSIA
= new nation or group Of nations, one, perhaps, that
of the Czecho-Slovaks. and another an independent Po-
land. Poland, as it will be when the Allies have fin
ished up with Germany will not be the Poland which
was some time ago shaped by German hands, a mere
adjunct to the German empire. but a truly independent
state; with a government created by it's own people. and
managing its own affairs. Bohemia and its %neighbor
provinces will be another such nation, and both will be,
not merely buffer states, but real nations.
The wanderings Of the Czecho-Slovaks who are
now in Russia are worthy Of the pen Of a Homer. These
men, driven into a war which was not their war, and for
which they had no liking, took advantage Of the oppor-
tunity, after their entry into Russia, to assert their own
independence, and to take steps to work their way back
to the western seat Of war, there to participate in the
struggle which was to free their own land from the
domination Of the Hun. One group Of them started for
the distant Pacific coast, and another for the Arctic,
each planning to gain the seacoast and find their way to
France. The undertaking was one to stagger the stout
est, for continents had to be crossed by men who starred
out with only their bare hands. We who have lived in
peace and security, and who have enjoyed a country and
may we'll take off our hats to this little band Of devoted
men. ~

THE ST.. GOBAN FOREST

The fact that the Allies are now on the borders Of
the forest Of St Gobain brings to mind the fact that a
few months ago that forest was believed to be the place
where one Of the German super-guns that bombarded
Paris from long range was located. Fragments of shells
that fell on Paris were subjected to careful examination,
and from these and the surrounding facts was deduced
the theory that the gun which fired the shots was sit
uated in the forest Of st. Gobain, near Laon.
An anatomist has been known 70 take a single
bone, and with that as a basis to reconstruct the entire
skeleton Of the animal from which it came, the confor-
nation Of the fragment which he had indicating the
form Of the text, each being governed by the conditions
of the period in which the animal lived. In a somewhat
similar way our artillery experts have been able, from
q mere fragment of broken metal, to learn whence it
came, and the direction and speed of its travel.
When the Allies cleared the Marine salient Of Ger
mans they found near the center of that salient the con-
and power, together with the carriage by means Of
which the gun had been moved and aimed. The gun it.
self had been removed, but the Germans were in too
great haste to take away the carriage or destroy the
base. 1t is supposed that this gun was one of several
by means of which shells were dropped on Paris. At
the present rate of going the forest Of st. Gobain will
soon be in the hands of the. Allies, and it will be inter-
esting to learn whether or not any indications are found
Of the presence of another Of these great guns. The
one, OF these pieces, the weapon is gone before now, and
for the Germans have become accustomed to retreating,
and may be supposed to have made preparations for it
some time in advance. ~
