MIR. Meece's New Idea

Pickens, $. c., May IL, 'ls.
TO the readers of tho United States and
the Allied Nations:
That the entire minds of the world
may be cast in with mine, God has
made me to believe that there is
power in the upper space, above the
earth. We can see how it burns and
how powerful it u.s. Would it be pos
siblc to reach up in the upper space by
the balloon with n hose pipe and by
means of pump bring down the upper
AIR or GAS? 1t might be used to the
winning of the great battle of the
world. Open your minds and look up
from whence all powers come and see
if there isn't something in the upper
space that would beS Of great
value to the world, and if this power
can be obtained, give God the honor
first then j. r. Niece.

The wedding was quiet home affair.
There were no attendants and the cere-
mony was witnessed by only the imme
date relatives and n few friends The
impressive ceremony was performed
by Rev. Sam Jones Of Greenvlle The
bride was lovely in tailored suit of
gray with georgette blouse and all ac.
cessories to match. She wore cor
sage bouquet Of Brides roses and lilies
of the valley. The groom wore the
uniform of the United States army.
There is an interesting coincidence

Mrs. Farmer is the baby and onl,
daughter of her parents. She has one

"Second-Their aim is to defend and
develop what has been accomplished by
the revolution and to suppress all coun-
ter revolutionary activity"
Thus orders DR.. Liebknecht, the leader
of the so-called Spartacus group, well
named from the predatory bandits who
made life miserable for the Romans. He
proposes to suppress all counter revolu-
tionary activity" What he proposes is
that he will suppress any attempt to
bring about representative government;
that he will prevent any legislation save
I directed by his own group; and that
the people at large, particularly the vast
middle class of merchants, artisans and
profession people, will be denied voice.
And so bolshevism proposes the blood
lest of tyrannies. But there is conceiv-
ably lenient form Of tyranny; for an ar
istocracy implies intelligence and possible
cruelty; but bolshevism implies tyranny
of ignorance and certain cruelty. Where
fore there is not defense for it.
Broadly speaking, the soldiers apd
sailors in New York provided the rem
edy. There is no more hope Of convert
g. a bolsheYist to sanity than of convert
ing Turk to sanitation. But there Is
hope Of warning the sober, thinking and
patriotic Americans to be on their guard
and to take measures against the wolves.
America must not foster sedition that is
as dangerous in peace as in war. Who

FORGETTING THE KAISER

Great Britain at this moment seems to
be very much concerned with WHAT'S re-
garded as an omission in the terms of
the armistice. The world at large, to
great extent, will share the uneasiness
which is felt by our ally. Great Britain
lis not entirely satisfied with the fate of
the kaiser. His end is left too much to
himself and Germany to satisfy the Brit
ish people. They regret the fact that the
kaiser and his sons were permitted to es-
cape without surrender.
Naturally the world cannot feel that
full justice has been done so long as the
kaiser remains free from the penalty of
war; While it is true that he has lost
smuch in the defeat, it is also true that he
has been spared the privations and suf-
terings which were heaped upon the un-
fprtunates Of war. The discovery of
great stores Of foodstuffs in the kaiser's
Berlin palace, while all Germany starv-
ed, has brought the lesson home to the
German people. The begin to realize
what dupes they have been.
This, however, brings no punishment
to the kaiser and his ilk. The kaiser is
free from the suffering which is felt in
German homes as well as in the homes
Of the allied nations. Great Britain sus-
poets treachery, anticipating an effort
to reinstall the kaiser as the head Of the
government. While the world does not
share this view it is bound toagree that
the kaiser thus far has escaped with
light sentence. AS result it feels that
full justice has not yet been accorded be-
cause the guilty have escaped. Those
most responsible for the bloodshed and
terror Of the past four years have gone
unpublished. The surrender Of the kais-
err should have been an essential part Of
the settlement, but coming as an after
thought, no good comes of the suggestion
The kaiser must be left to the ways Of
the world. If he escapes the assassin's
bullet, his punishment must come from
his conscience and the regrets he must
feel in his daily living.-Salt Lake Her.

We do not generally look to Mr..
Bennett for attractive characters, but
We must confess that we had scarcely
expected to find even in his works
cutie so repulsive degenerate pervert
as the "hero" of this tale. Plenty of
sorted with the loose fish of the streets
and music halls. But when a man
goes to tell supposedly decent young
woman Of her husbands death in the
war, and instantly begins lasciviously
speculating upon her sexual charms,
we beg to draw the line. So, too, we
are accustomed, without protest, to see
courtesans exploited in romance; but
we must protest that no requirement
of literary "art"-even "for arts sake"
calls for the exploitation of un-
lovers in their bedchambers.
Mr.. Bennett has unauestioned skill
of portraiture, and at times rare
dramatic power. and these qualities are
opulently displayed in this volume.
But the whole thing is feverish and
hectic with abnormal sexuality Even
the stupendous issues of the war and
the inscrutable mysteries of life and
death can never auench the sex-con-
seriousness of his characters or cause
them to rise above sensual desire. Tie
"slow working of conscience" effects
some changes in them, hut never are
they convincingly removed from the
plane Of physiological passion. To

Old-F ashioned Romance

TTIH ENCHANTED BARN. BY Grace Livingston
Nm Iutz. With colored frontispiece limo pp.
3l3 The ]. B. Iippincott Company
Do you like an old-fashioned ro-
nance, in which there are no problems,
no morbid discussions of sociology, no
changes rung on the wornout triangle,
but in which in clean, wholesome way
rich young man falls in love with a
poor young woman, and they get mar
ried and live together happily ever
after? Maybe it seems trite and
threadbare to some sophisticated souls;
but after all it is no more so than
human life itself. And are we not told
that the novel should portray human
life? Go to, therefore, all who would
scorn the old-fashioned romance of the
girl who lived in barn and was
wooed and welded by the young mil
lionaire who came in motor car. For
us we reckon it good reading, which,
If it does not throw you into psyche
logical spasms, at least does not give
you moral headache nor leave you
with bad taste in the mouth.
