PRESIDENT WILSON AND
THE PEACE COMMISSION

President Wilson's trip abroad to at
tend the peace conference is a wise
and appropriate undertaking. There
are several reasons why he should be
Mt hand.
In the first place, the German adj
vances for peace have been made to
him and presented to the Allies
through his agency.
In the second place. at the confer
ence many questions will naturally
come up which will be subject to
marked differences of opinion. The
Allies. necessarily harmonious in
time of war, may disagree in regard to
the terms of peace. President Wilson's
authority and personality are likely to
be strong factor in composing any
such differences. The fact that Ameri-
ca has nothing to ask for herself will
strengthen his position.
In the third place. though America
seeks neither indemnity nor annexa-
ton of territory, she has a real and
grave interest in many of the adjust
ments to be made. No one can handle
these matters as well as Mr.. Wilson.

ter weeping: Rachel weeping for her
children refused to be comforted for
her children, because they were not.
Refrain thy voice from weeping, and
thine eyes from tears: for thy work

And there is hope in thine end, saith
the Lord, that thy children shall come

WHY QUIT

The total production of the war
gardens was so enormous that it was
hardly credible. II represented the eff
fort of amateur backyard
agriculturists who never did anything
OF the kind before and probably never
will again.
But why shouldn't they? If we are
capable of producing it. or something
equally necessary?
The same applies to all our war
time efforts. With similar standards
of production and achievement main
tanned everybody in the country would
have an automobile. steam yacht and

Worlds Work for December.
The coming of peace makes possible
the publication Of much information
properly could not be printed in war
times-a fact which permits Popular
Mechanics Magazine for January to
present several articles of unsurpassed
interest, that will give the reader a
better understanding of how our brave
men and our Allies achieved glorious
victory In addition to these accounts
there is wealth of articles and pic
lures dealing not alone with the war
and the coming of peace but with I'M
usual events, new mechanical achieve
ments, and scientific discoveries in all
parts of the world.
Just now rehabilitation is a phase
of military activity in which every
American has a supreme interest. All
of this country's plans for that great
undertaking are not yet perfected, but
Great Britain for some time has had
method of procedure carefully mapped
out and what is more, has rehearsed
it carefully. In "Dissolving World
Army this important program is most
interestingly set forth.
Good Housekeeping for December
contains number of very interesting
stories and articles. What is perhaps
the most striking story of the year is
contributed by Mary Raymond Ship
man Andrews the author of the famous
Lincoln story, THE Perfect Tribute"
Ano her splendid story with humo-
rous twist is Major Bobbin, Spug"
by Margaret Belle Houston. There is
also fiction by James Oliver Curwood
and Kathleen Norris. There is verse
by Grace G. Bostwick. Margaret E.
Sangster and Grace Hazard Conkling.
There are special articles by Dorothy
Dix. Clara Savage. Henry P. Dawson
and Dr. Harvey w. Wiley. The agi-
tation against German-made toys
makes especially significant an article
on playthings by Sarah Comstock.
There are Is pages of very interesting
household suggestions and articles
prepared by Good Housekeeping In
stitute. There is an equal number of
pages devo.ed to fashions This de-
partment is edited in New York and
