STOLEN" MUSIC.

Perhaps few people know that the
tune set to "My Country 'Tis of
Thee" our national hymn, is a British
tune, sung to "God Save the King"
The words of "Amorica" were writ
ten by Rev. Samuel +. Smith, di-
vinity student at Andover, in 1892
Just when it was sung TO the present
tune for the first time, or how it
came about that we "stole" the Brit
ismh music, is not known.
y now tune has been composed for
any Country IT'S of Thee" and is
being widely used in different part.
of the country. The composer of the
new music is Prof. James r. McCabe
Il district superintendent of schools
of New York. The new tune is grad
ually working its way into public IA
vor. And while we are at it, the tune
of the Star Spangled Banner lacks
much of being pleasing to the ear as
n musical composition. The words
were written in 1914, and set to ar
old English drinking song-anothe.
instance of plagiarism from the Brit.
ish. Let somebody write new music
easy to sing and pleasing to the i'm.
mortal words.

WOOUNOW WILSUN.
BY the President,
ROBERT LANSING,
Secretary of State.
ROOSEVELT WANTS BODY OF
SON TO REMAIN IN FRANCE.

New York, Nov. 18.-Colonel Theo-
dore Roosevelt has authorized the an
nouncement that he and Mrs. Roose-
welt would visit the grave of their
son, Lieutenant Quentin Roosevelt,
who was buried in France at the
spot where he fell after his aeroplanc
had been shot down by the Germans.
Colonel Roosevelt at the same time
made public an emphatic protest he
had sent to General Peyton C. March,
chief of staff of the United States
army, against the planned removal of
his sons body to this country.
General March, in replying to Col.
Roosevelt, consented that Lieutenant
Rooseveltn's body should remain in
the grave in which it was buried by
the Germans. He said he had in
structed General Pershing to carry
out Colonel Roosevclts wishes and
lad given the commander of the
American forces general authority to
take the same action in regard to
bodies of other soldiers, whose rela-
tives wished it. He said, however, that
it was the policy of the government to
lcturn to this country bodies of SOL
diers killed in France.
In his letter to General March, the
former president referred to the re
port that the American dead would
be taken home after the war, and
continued:
"Mrs. Roosevelt and | wish to en-
ter most respectful but most en-
phatic protest against the proposed
course so far as our son, Quentin L,
concerned.
We have always believed that:
"Where the tree falls
There let it lie"
We know that many good persons
feel entirely different, but to us it is
painful and narrowing long afte,
death to move the poor body from
which the soul has fed. We greatly
prefer that Quentin shall continue to
lie Gil the spot where he fell in bat
Re and where the fceman buried him.
After the war is over Mrs. Roose-
welt and / intend to visit the grave
end then to have a small stone put
M saying it is put up by US, but not
disturbing what has already been
erected to his memory by his friends
and American comrades in arms"

HERR ERZBERGER.
(Roanoke Tires.)

1t may not be amiss to remind
those emotional brethren who are
waxing ecstatic over tn alleged vir-
tues of the new regime that has been
set up in Germany that once upon :.
time wolf for purposes deemed
good and sifiucient got himself up in
sleeps clothing. Thus camouflaged
he carried out to highly satisfac-
tory conclusion the enterprise upon
which he had embarked.
Herr Erzberger, who lately was
weeping copiously and with impair
tial grief for the victims of this cruel
war, is a member of the new Gov
ernment which the socialists have
constructed in Germany. He ESQ
was member of the late Imperial
Government that has gone to the
bowwows. In February, 1915, when
the goose was hanging high and the
prospects seemed lovely for the sue
cess CT Kultur, this same Herr Ecz-
berger wrote over his own signature:
eff it should be possible to destroy
tie whole of London. that would be
mere humane than To allow one of
our countrymcn to bleed to death or
the battlefield. England has stolen
from lis more than 400 merchant
ships. The answer to this should be
that for every German merchantmen
one English town or one English vii
lage should be destroyed by the bomb
of airmen."
a good memory sometimes proves
decidedly inconvenient for the other
fellow, especially when he's trying
to put something over on you. The
English have good memories, we
doubt not.

LUPOMANIA.

They tell US that u pack of fighting
wolves will turn upon wounded
member of the pack and destroy it.
The once exalted "All Highest" the
leader of the pack" as soon as he
failed, has been turned upon by the
rest of the pack, who hive been
taught for generations that there IS
no right but might. Early German
history records that the tribes wer.
seized on occasion with what is called
"Lupomania," and while the frenzy
lasted they would destroy each other
promiscuously. Lupus" you know,
is latin for wolf. "Reverting TO type'
in these latter days Lupomania has
broken out among them again. Ger
many's ills and troubles lie too deep
to be reached and corrected from tho
outside. Salves, lotions and healing

TWO EpIDEMICS PASSED.

The epidemic (and Germany seems

few sporadic cases will still be re-
ported, but it's "back is broken" its
strength is exhausted. 1t left its

1t is not far from the truth to
say, that the epidemic produced ms
much excitement in the homes of the
people as did the war. The war was

The "flu" stalked as "a pestilenc,
that wasteth at MONDAY" right here
in our streets, homes. and places of
business, producing stagnaton every

homes.
The casualties and fatalities when
fully known will prove to have been
commensurate with those among the
American troops in France. We were

LET THE PRESIDENT STAY AT
HOME.

Shall the President attend in per-
son the Peace conference in France?
Some say, yes. A still larger num-
Der of influential papers say no. We
vote mo-" and wish our vote record
cd. AS stated, the United States will
only have a voice in moral questions
involved. The trip will be attended
by considerable danger. The Presi-
dent should take no unnecessary risks
now. And he is needed Mt home now,
every day. We vote mo"
However, the papers state that the
President will attend the opening ses-
sion Of the peace conference. lie will

and a quarter centuries for mankind
to rise to full realization of that
opportunity, but it is rising rapidly
TO 1t now. Principles of human right
and liberty, born and tested and
strengthened in the land to which
Columbus led the way, are today cir
COMMUNICATING the globe as swiftly
and surely as the great admiral's Wis
ion swetp around it.
In these Trying times, when all
worth while that mankind has
wrought in the world is in the bal
ance, tibet vision and the persever
ance of Columbus offer inspiration
and example. 1t is well for us all
to remember and KEEP fresh in mind
all through this world war, how the
sailors, after the long voyage into
an apparently boundless ocean mutt
MED; how Columbus pleaded for pust
three days more of advance, promis-
ing ut the expiration of that time to
put about and return to Spain; how
his spirit was cheered by the sight
of drifting branch with leaves up
on it, evidently fresh from some
neighboring land; how a bird CAM
across the waters while still no land
appeared and perched in the rigging;
"fN iHoiy iloW at IiBHI came from
the caravel Pinta the welcome hail,
of Land Ho!" and n waving light
across the waters showed the pres
encc of human habitation.
Today in the new decentralization
of the earth, from west to east, a
leader with still clearer, broader Wis
ION and even more purposeful and
indomitable, is in command.
The minds of men are today cloud
ed by ignorance and self-interest as
of old. The way to universal free
dom of the nations, great and small,
is all uncharted. Storms rage, the
compass sometimes falters, and COW
ards would mutiny.
But the vision of our leader we
believe to be divine and every true
American will stand steadfastly by
nm TO the triumphant end.,-Charles
Grant Miller in the Christian Her
aid.

THANKSGIVING.

November 18th has been pro-
claimed by President Wilson as Ma
tional Thanksgiving Day. 1t will be

JOY and praise, gratitude and thank
fulness to Almighty God for the
World Victory achieved on the battle
fields of France. America has boon
re-discovered-ncw nations born, the
world re-crcatcd. ooh for thous-
and tongues to sing" our victors'
matchless praise.
