gunfire. There have been numerous
ear protectors submitted. some of
which have been in use for some
time. An ear protector, known as the
| Tommy. which has been used by the
fsnd forces tn Europe engaged in
heavy artillery, has been tested out
by the United States navy and has
given excellent results. No formal
adoption OF this device has yet been
made. but 1t appears to be the most
satisfactory of all the protectors
which have been used.

II Is very plain that Germany
cannot hope to make headway with
the American people so long as it
stands on soil 1t occupies wrong
fully or continues to evince a dis
position to battle with the, forces
of right .. .... --e r...
Americas purpose is the purpose,
too. of the allies. This means that
the world is bound together to pun
ish Germany for its gross indiscre-
tions of the past four years.
The Kaiser Is doomed. He sees
IL, probably. but is loathe to admit
it. His people see it, however, and
they will likely have greater say
than he will when the time comes
to get out of this awful mess into
which he precipitated them. =
A study of the German constitu--
tion- is of Interest at this time be-
cause IL shows to what extreme
lengths the people went in giving
power to the Emperor. He Is not
only the gifted man of the land. by
right of family. but he has every
power that can be heaped upon him..
The power is very express. too, in
the matter of military aHairs and he
can plunge the people into war by
merely taking the notion. The docu-
ment looms up now as the one
horrible example Of autocracy but
its life is short. from all irdiea-
tions, and it will soon pass into his
tory and be known merely as "a
thing to avoid not to pay attention
to as a live constitution obeyed by
peoples of the present day, ~
Peace, under this constitution,
cannot be Consented to until the
council has spoken and 1t cannot
become valid and binding until the
diet has ratified II. The constitu-
tion makes no mention Of the ini-
tlatiYe which the people may ex-
htbit in approaching peace. We I'M
agine that in this respect the docu-
ment Will be changed to such an
extent that 1t win never again be
recogniza BILE. The people will not
only be the moving power for peace
but they will be the moving power
in the constant preservation of
peace. The assurance that peace
will be long in years will mean
more TO them than the mere promise
that peace will soon result out OF
the present dIsa gre Bic mix And
there will be enough sadness
thrown into the German cup for
sonls time TO come that every day
will add to Germanys hope that
peace will last as long as the ma
tion shall last. And it probably
will for the German nation win be
changed and more apt to last on
the new basis.
Serbian authorities still maintain
that it would have been better to treat
With the Bulgars after the allies had
won military victories in sufficient
quantity to compel It. Serbian troops
advancing north of Nish, for instance.
found strong opposition to their pass
age. Austro-German troops have ap-
parently taken the situation in hand
and are not yet ready to allow the
Serbs entrance into the country sup
posed to have been vacated by the
Bnlgars. This Is just a little inkhns
which confirms our previously an
nounced Judgment that it would be
better to delay our dealing with the
entire German outfit until We have
convinced the Germans that they are
licked-and they show they are con-
WINGED by laying down" to the last
man. The term Unconditional Sur
