POOR ARMENIA!

No country in all the world has suf-
fered as has Armenia. A prey to the
despicable Turk, the country has been
despoiled, and what little opportunity
the people had to rise and take for
ward step before the war got started
has been taken away by the rapacity
of the Turks. Women are today hid
ing in the mountains, living on husks
or just what they can get to eat, chill
dren are dying, and their masters are
still allowed to exist as nation. 1t
looks to be the most reasonable thing
the Paris conference could do would
be to wipe out the Turk forever from
civilization. Their religious fanati-
cism has led them to be more than bru-
tai and uncivilized. The mothers of
Armenia have care on their hands
with hosts of children that American
mothers know little of. If every man
in this country knew the actual facts
of the bad conditions now existing in
Armenia they could scarcely believe
them.

VILLAGE GOSSIP
ATE HOMEOPATHIC MEDICINE.

when ! was a little girl, 'slsaid a
Palisade lady the other day, zone of
my sisters and my two brothers went
upstairs, where we kept a medicine
chest-a homeopathy chest, all filed
with little bottles of every kind for all
sorts of sickness. Some of the little
long bottles were filed with poison
medicine, and so marked. But we
children just tasted one Of the bottles
filled with the little white pellets, and
then we had our fill of the sweet little
treat. Then we went downstairs and
told mother all about our frolic and
find. She was terribly frightened, and
screamed that we were all poisoned.
She at once sent for the doctor, and
when he came and was told what we
had done he merely sat there and
laughed. He said we would not be
hurt at all, that what we had eaten
would not hurt us, and so we felt
greatly relieved So did mother. But
when the doctor left she hid the medi-
cine chest

HOW GERMAN SOLDIERS GOT
BACK TO BERLIN.

That was a fine welcome given the
returning victorious (!!??** !?D Ger
man army in Berlin the other day.
"Come, my unbeaten whelps, to our
welcoming arms said Ebert, the pre-
mier of the shaky affair they have over
there called government. Then the
victory lads were told they were still
the proud boast of the empire, that
they never allowed the hated enemy
to put foot on German soil, that they
were to kill the fdtted calf and have
a helofatime generally-these fellows
home from the war
The situation reminds us of two
comical stories. The first was where
the fellow came home to his wife after
fight he'd had He was all bandaged
up about the head, his eyes black, his
hands torn, his walk lame, his hair
tousled. In word, he was all done
up His wife asked: "And how did
you get such a licking?"
Licking? You ought to see the 9TH
er fellowp' he drawled.
The other story was where a boy
had been asked by a gallant beau in
the minstrel show to take a note to
Miss Beasely. He took it, but came
back complete wreck following an
interview with the Beasely bulldog.
His face was scratched and he was
almost mangle from being dragged
over the lot by the dog. The rival to
the first beau came upon the scene
with another note to Miss Beasely
"Say, boy, do you know where
Beasely lives?"
The boy looked at him out of his
one eye and in forlorn voice asked /:
"DO know where Beasely lives?"
That's how the German soldiers got
back to Berlin.

A STUDY IN ATTITUDES.

A study of the mental attitude of
the New York city press over the
presidents visit to Europe would puz-
zle Philadelphia lawyer. Such a
thing as clear understanding of their
editorial utterances is out of the ques-
tion-that is, the motive of the attack.
A mention of the newspapers and their
position on Mr. Wilson's visit to Paris
might prove interesting here.
The Sun, disdainful, doubtful, hyper
critical satirical to the last degree.
The Herald, coldly silent, holding
the President in AFFECT contempt.
The Evening Sun, treating the sit
uation in its own wien Of sighting
and freakish thrusts of would be hui
NOR.
The Morning World, frOwning be-
cause Mr.. Wilson went away of his
own accord, didn't tell why he went,
what he proposes, shouldn't have gone
anyway, his Paris reception mere pif-
fe.
The Tribune, keeping it's mouth
shut completely, as a Wilson hater
should, but only every other day. Be
ing at leeast ethical.
The Evening Globe, very. very dis
tant, going off into realms of historic
parallels, citing authorities to prove
Wilson is borrower of ideas and in
no way proud of the visit or it's mean
ing.
The Evening Mail, blowing hot and
cold, supporting Wilson in one breath,
damning him in another.
The Times, says little to prove its
faith in the President and member
of the band of critics who don't see
why he went away.
The American, dumb with Hearst
camouflaging, as usual
In chorus they all have the same
wall about Wilson not telling his Sc
crets, as though he had any to tell.
1t seems to us the fourteen points
tell enough, only they don't. He might
have gone to establish these, but he
didn't. Clemenceau, so the wires tell
us, is in accord with the fourteen. It
ally is of the same mind. The truth
about England is unknown Nobody
knows what she thinks.
Now, if the fourteen points have q
meaning; if they are elaborated by
Mr.. Wilson further; if he tells what
they mean and his Interpretation is
acceptable to the entente powers, and
Mr.. Wilson gets the peace ratification
to Congress before March A, and it is
all signed and accepted by the senate,
won't he be doing something worth
while? But even then wouldn't his
critics continue to howl and tell him
how?
A final thought is that the fourteen
points; could have been so glorious
when uttered, so easily understood
then and SO completely battling now

FREEDOM OF THE SEAS.

The meaning of Freedom of the
son in his memorable fourteen points
peace plea, has been so criticised that
it is puzzling a world to know it's real
meaning. The most clarified statement
we have seen on the subject is con-
tanned in paragraph of the New
The World says:
1.-THE United States went to war
with Germany over the freedom of the
seas. That was the vital issue be-
tween the two nations. Had the I'm
perial German government respected
the rule of visit and search; had it
refrained from employing it's subma-
rines in ruthless attacks on merchant
ships, enemy and neutral alike; had it
respected the rights of noncombatants
to life and property, no legitimate
cause of war would have existed.
"From the day that the Lusitania
was sunk until the day that the Presi-
dent appeared before Congress to urge
a declaration of war against the I'm
perial German government, our con-
trOversies with the Junker autocracy
all turned on the freedom of the seas
There is nothing mysterious about
this Interpretation. 1t is what Presi.
dent Wilson has said was the meaning.
Perhaps it will be better understood
at the final conference over peace.
Let us hope so. Yet it seems clear
enough.

after about five days of fog and rain
that came in ample downpours was
one of those rare outbursts of natures
effulgent efforts that amaze, please
and mystify. What makes a sunset?
All sorts Of theories there are as to
their cause, but in reality most of it is
guesswork. Many theories of science
that have lasted for long periods have
finally yielded to some new thought on
the same subject. But that last Mon
days sunset was wonderful because of
its rarity. Near the lower edges of
the horizon, and perhaps a full degree
above it, there were long openings of
soft, mellow light streaked with filmy
clouds, while light, delicate pink hued
the sky, not far up, but in most tender
tone, while the center of the opening
was shot through and through with a
brilliant opal tint Of great luster. From
deep southwest to shade beyond the
northwest the line of light ran, and
those who came across the 5 o'clock
ferry witnessed the rare spectacle in
wonderment and joy. Over in West
Palisade residents called up their
neighbors to call their attention to the
great display. The sky in all other
portions was deep gray and had been
all day.
Little George Clark has been laid up
with cold for over a week, but is all
right again-that is, he is over 1t all,
little weak, and still the only inimita-
BILE George.
Lucky people to go through to this
point Of the winter and have scarcely
enough use for coal to keep the house
warm. Up to last Tuesday the season
had been unusually warm, several de-
grees below normal.

OUR PRESIDENT IN FRANCE.

The first formal welcome given to
President Wilson in Europe was in
France, our long time friend and suf-
fering ally in the present war.
France, ever gallant and loving peace,
had on her holiday attire and her
most gracious mood in taking to her
heart our American chief magistrate.
The Joy of the historic occasion was
made all the more feeling in the re-
production of BarthOldis statue of
Liberty as touch of tender appeal to
the coming guest. The dispatches tell
us the sun broke through the clouds
that had hung low as the Presidents

THIS CHRISTMAS.

Christmas, 1918, will undoubtedly be
the most important and interesting as
we'll as the most feeling celebration of
the great natal day of Christ ever re-
corded. The ending of the war makes
the occasion this year, coming as it
did in the most gracious victory for
the liberation of mankind and under
the very shadow of the holiday season,
an event of the most pretentiOus im-
pOrtance. 1t is time always when
the whole world got into it's happiest
moment, but this year the occasion
marks the passing of the most terri
bic war of all time, and one that dis
rupted civilization itself And now
that peace is come again, with what
rejoicings everywhere does humanity
welcome the coming of Christmas, the
day of all days on the calendar when
all peoples of all countries lay aside all
cares for the nonce and enter the
spirit of good cheer, good will and hap
piness. The time will be welcome one
this year when the festival may mean
so much more than it ever meant be-
fore. The association of peace was
always with Christmas, but never be-
fore has genuine peace meant so
much. God be praised for this great
period of happiness and gratitude for
what has been wrought through the
appalling sacrifice in the war that is
now gone into history to await the
verdict Of the future.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

At great meeting in Albert Hall,
London, December 8, attended only by
women, Premier Lloyd George made a
strong appeal for votes for women.
During his address he, called attention
to the fact that the manner in which
the 100000 or more women of Great
Britain. vote will determine the course
of her future legislation. He also de-
clared himself in favor of placing wo-
men on an equality with men in the
matter of work, wages and marriage
laws, as well as suffrage
