Judge Frank Allen.
Superintendent Cavett charged that

SHOP EARLY and SENSIBLY

The War Industries Board. having
yielded to the pressure Of merchants
and manufacturers in the matter of
its early campaign against Christ
mas giving, now asks that Christmas
givers commence their shopping at
once because the shops will not be
able to handle the business il every
body waits until day or so before
Christmas to do the necessary buy
ing. The board also thinks, very
rightly, too, that IL the people begin
at once to do their shopping, the bills
will not rest so heavily upon them,
they will be far more likely to pur-
chase only useful gifts. and the holi-
days viii be much better served all
the way around.

Tell Us Some More.

A member of the senate com
mittee on foreign relations has
spoken with extreme frankness on
the subject Of Germany's answer to
the presidents questions regarding
Prince Maximilian's peace proposals
He said in part: "The great trou-
BILE with the acceptance OF, the presi-
dents address, leaving the details to
be settled, is that the details are the
whole question. There is not a word
in the address Of Jan. 8; or in any
subsequent address which demands
PREPARATION. All the allies. and par
ticularly France and England. thru
Clemenceau and Lloyd George, have
ieclared again and again that the
terms Of peace must contain both
restitution and PREPARATION"
We may take il that the subject of
separation was contained by i'm
plieation in the presidents words,
and rational mind can read them
here; but we can be confident that
Berlin WIN construe them differently.
The retreating German armies
were engaged in orgies of destrue-
ion while the proposals were under
sonside ration. but the devastation
was of little military importance. It
Indicated sheer wantonness and
nalienity.

PerShng'S Command.
nendatiOn

The first of a great series of separate American
armies has taken its place in the field under
the orders of General Pershing, who, again, acts
under the supreme command of Marshal Foch. Thus
an historic event has been accomplished. American
troops have been engaged at many points of the
front in the past year. Everywhere they have been
welcomed by the allies and have won golden opinions
from their comrades by their modesty and their
bravery Now not isolated battaIions divisions,
than that which Grant led to Richmond. goes into
the line.
1t is good for the allies to reflect the fact that
at the present moment there are 100000 American
troops in France and thai under President Wilson
plans the total early next year will be raised to
5000 600 with such magnificent energy has
America worked that the whole situation has been
changed With these millions preparing for action,
Marshal Foch's plans can be made with the Ger
tanty that ample reserves will be available to drive
home the blows which the British and French armies
may deal
For the British race it is good to reflect that the
Union Jack is now flying side by side the battle
zone with the Stars and Stripes. and that in this
struggle bring back peace and establish freedom
on earth, all branches of the EngHsh-speaking peo-
pies are together facing wounds and death Our
eyes are witnessing the fulfllment Of the glorious
dream which has always haunted our seers. The
estrangement which began on the battlefield seven
score years ago. is being ended. hope. forever,
on the battlefelds of this war.-London Daily Mail
