THANKSGIVING WEEK

TOVERNOR BRUMBAUGH has
" asked the people of the Com
monwealth to observe to-mor-
row as Thanksgiving Day for the
passing of the influenza epidemic.
That is a good thought, but why not
enlarge upon it? Why not make the
whole of next week a Thanksgiving
period for the victory that has come
to the Allied arms and the preserva-
ton of civilization?
! The man who is truly thankful
gives. The ancient Hebrews offered
up sacrifices of the best that God had
given them. Let us emulate that
worthy example by giving something
of our plenty to those who need it,
and with the War Work committee
asking for s1s0,0OO from the city
alone, it will not be difficult to de-
eide where your gifts should go.
Be thankful TO the soldiers and
sailors who have made our civiliza-
ton secure and register the fervency
of your prayers by the number of the
dollars you give for their welfare.
Give as you pray.

OF THE OLD SCHOOL

THE Telegraph published last
evening a poem by Prof. J. H.
Kurzenknabe, of Camp Hill, long
resident of this city and known
and loved by thousands. If all the
people native to Germany were of
the kindly nature of the aged
musician there never would have
been a war.
As Mr.. Morgenthau, tie dis
tinguished former ambassador to
Turkey, said during his address in
Chestnut street hall Thursday. the
German life of a half-century back
has been crushed by the military
teachers, who took the children at
the cradle and instilled into their
hearts and minds the damnable doc
trines that almost ruined civiliza-
ton and are about to destroy the
forces that set them in motion.
Just now we are so sore over the
atrocities of the modern Germans
that we have forgotten for the
moment the older, kinder Germany.
but we are not so vengeful but that
we hope the old days will return
and after a period in sackcloth and
ashes the Germans may again come
into their own. Prof. Kurzenknabe is
of the old school of Germans, but
he is OF the modern school OF
Americans, all wool and a yard
wide.

GERMANY BEATEN

TIME end OF the war is so plainly
in sight that fighting may come
to an end before these words
reach the public. Germany has been
unable to procure an armistice be-
fore the defeat of her armies. The
military supremacy of the Allies has
been clearly proved. German SOL
diers are utterly defeated and in
panic-stricken flight. Even though
actual warfare ends to-day, the world
knows that the Allies have smashed
the German military machine, and
that it is trying desperately to save
the remnants from utter annihila-
ton. That is the big thing that his
story will record of these momentous
days. The legend of German invinci-
bility is shattered.
And the next biggest thing is the
plight in which the German empire
finds itself. It is in grave danger of
going the way Russia has gone. II
will be to the interests of the Allies
to save the nation from this disaster.
The Bolshevik is a menace to the
world. Bolshevikism must be put
down If civilization is to live. A quick
cessation OF the war. the occupation
OF German territory by Allied forces.
the abdication of the Kaiser and a
complete characterization of Ger
many alone can save the country
from a deluge of blood from within.
We have no great pity for the Ger
man people IN the misfortune that
has overcome them, but It is our
duty to the world and to ourselves
to put down the international GRIM
inal wherever he may be found, and
the Bolshevik is as bad as the Kaiser
himself.

ITALIA IRRIDENTA

IFrom the Kansas City Starl
The complete and decisive victory
achieved by Italian arms, a victory
which, measured by its direct and
immediate results, must be account
ed one of the greatest in the wars
annals, will be accorded the fullest
recognition by the Allies and by his
tory. A year after the defeat of
Caporetto, in which German treach-
cry accomplished what German and
Austrian arms could not do, the
army has shown the world how
slight was the crack opened up in
the Italian defense by the elaborate
propaganda and barrage of lies with
which the enemy had sought to
break it down, and how steadfast
and unshaken Italian nationalism
and the character of the Italian
people remained Throughout the or
deal.
The resolute stand on the Piave,
after the retreat from the Isonzo,
deprived the enemy of all the ex-
pected fruits of his victory, pur-
chased by deceit and intrigue. The
army did not break, the nation stood
firm and, instead of the sack of
Venice and the triumphant march to
Rome the enemy had promised him
SELF he was forced to devote his
whole strength to holding a line
that profted him nothing and kept
from Germany the help that had
been anticipated from a released
Austrian army.
If Italy had done no more for the
Allied cause, this canceling of Aus
trian cooperation with the German
forces in other theaters would have
been an ample measure of service
from nation without large econo-
mic resources and deficient in war
material, such as coal and steel.
But Italy was not content with
that effort. Her soil was invaded.
Her ancient provinces were unre-
deemed and she had lost the line of
her first brilliant advance. She re-
sumed the offensive, forced the pass
age of the Piave, defeated and routed
a great Austrian army that occupied
a front of more than a hundred
miles, and in a campaign of but a
few days, laid Austria's military
power in the dust Germany's last
ally, the power closest to her and on
which which she counted the most,
was put out of the war, and, by
poetic justice, put out by the ma
ton the Austrians had long oppress-
ed and despoiled.
Italy is redeemed. The Italian
flag again floats in Trieste and the
Trentino. and in the acclaim of the
Italian people over this victory of
justice every Allied people swill
heartily join its voice.

THE ONION CROP

wy ESTERN Pennsylvania far
wv mers complain that they have
no market for the $4,000
bushels of onions they raised this
year, and they are at loss to under
stand why. We think we know. Most
likely its because of the scarcity Of
good beefsteak. Steak smothered in
onions used to be a favorite dish in
many restaurants. But when the
army went to France and most of the
fine cuts of beef followed, and what
was left at home shot up beyond
the price we once paid for turkey,
the consumption of onions suffered
likewise. The remedy is equally
simple and scientific. Let the far
mers who complain raise steers on
one half the farm and onions on the
other, and-presto-the problem is
solved.
Or. the war coming to an end and
the supply of beef for home con-
sumption being gradually increased,
why not an advertising campaign to
popularize the consumption of beef
steak smothered in onions, in which
