MARSHAL FOcH.

In ono OF the local movie houses
some pictures were shown this week
relating to the ending of the war.
The troops Of the various allied ar
mics were successfully shown on the
screen, each, according to their fam
iliarity to the onlookers, being heart
lily encored. Finally, one by one the
commanders Of the various armies
were shown, to be acclaimed as their
familiar faces appeared, and OF them
greater ovation than Marshal FToch,
the audience seeming to realize that
in the generalissimo victory was
born and brought to full fruiuon
with the gallant assistance of the
men and armies shown on the screen
just ahead Of him.
In this hour Of grateful memories,
this day Of Thanksgiving, all pay
freely to Marshal F'och his need Of
praise as the man whose genius CO.
ordinated and directed the military
forces Of the allies and the United
States to complete triumph, and be-
cause of his success this, day Of
thanks will bear especial slgnifi-
canoe,
The humiliakions of the Franco
Prussian war, in which Marshal Foch
wasa sub alternn, the agony Of France
in these more than four years, the
desperate beating back Of the in
vader, the turning of disaster into
victory, the realization Of the dream
Of nearly fifty years, the reintegra-
ton of France: these things must
have beOn in his mind and heart as he
sat at the arn1dstice conference. Did
he think also Of all the injustices
and expressions that the armies I'M
der his command have undone, Of
the freedom that they have brought
about, OF the reconstitutions and
ameliorationg in Europe. Asia, Africa,
the Pacific that their victory insures?
Did he think Of the downfall of Grim
inal or obsolete dynasties and the
cries Of government, Of the creation
of free world, and the liberation of
the conquered as well as the secur-
ity of the conquering peoples?
Remembering that in this shock Of
peoples, OF forces almost incalculable
and irresistible, every strength, re-
source, invention, the utmost subtle
ties of science, the collective wealth
and energy of whole nations have
been employed, that the nation whose
God was Might confessed it's impot-
ence by this abject surrender, did he
have time to think that till Time
runs down this surrender and the
Commander in Chief of the armies
that forced it will be associated in
the memory of mankind
Probably not. Marshal Foch is not
a man to think Of himself. He will
be in the thought of the world until
Il ends.

WAS WORTH 1T ALL.

The way the American people have
become accustomed to think in sums
OF ten and eleven figures is thus
commented upon by the Christian Sci
e1ce Monthly:
There was a time when the AM
erican people were staggered by the
phrase, "A Billion Dollar Congress"
1t was made a political campaign
cry by the opposition in ono event
ful struggle. The Sixty fifth con-
Eress, which is not yet through with
it's business, and will not be through
until March 3. next, has already vot-
ed away $4,000, 600, 900, and there is
barely a ripple on the surface of
public content. Really, it is not the
amount Of money spent that matters
to the taxpayer; it is the purpose
and manner of its spending that
count. No American worth while will
think the results OF the war dear at
the price paid, or to be paid for
them, since the world would be poor
place to live in If those results had
not been achieved"

Washington, Nov. 26.--(speclaD-
The nation is moving swiftly toward
the ''dry" haven, long in sight, by
two different routes. One is the
drying up of individual states by a
vote of the people of each common
wealth. The other is the amending
Of the United States constitution.
At the last election Ohio, Florida
Wyoming and Nevada were added to
the already long list of dry states.
There are now thirty states dry, in
Guiding Texas, where the dry law
may be held unconstitutional. and
eighteen wet Prohibition also pre-
walls in Alaska, Porto, Rica and the
Hawaiian Islands.
Several states now classed as wet,
including New Mexico, Kentucky and
New Hampshire, could almost be
classed as dry, for there are very
few sections in them where intoxi-
eating drinks can be had. Every
state in the union Is more or less
dry, for there are sections in each
state that have voted out the sa-
looms.

tional prohibition amendment by
February next now appears to be

GOOD CHEER FOR ALL.

All the allied nations Of Europe
have taken note of our Thanksgiving
day and the several governments
have arranged for their sailors to
provide special entertainment for the
American jack tars at. the many
ports where they are stationed. 1t
is a happy idea, and undoubtedly the
healths OF each nation, brought to-
gether in war, have been toasted

the unity of the liberty loving coun-

In many places on the continent
American troops will be entertained
by the civilian population and
throughout the Democratic countries
the day will be made one Of good

the soldiers and sailors are being
fated and Toasted and the spirit of
real thankfulness for the blessings Of
peace and the carly return of our
boys is manifest.

the recent elections shows that the
drys are in control in a sufficient
number of states to insure ratifica-
ton this winter. ~
When the national prohibition
resolution was adopted by congress a
time limit Of seven years was in
corporated. 1t was the idea of the
liberal leaders that it would be i'm
possible to secure ratification by the
required thirty-six states within that
time. Indications now are that rati-
ification will be an accomplished fact
within considerably less than three
years from the time of the passage
Of the resolution by congress. 3
Seeing the handwriting on the
wall, the wet leaders have given up.
Privately they admit that the ban
ishment Of the saloons throughout
the entire nation will be a fact by
March l. So confident are the dry
leaders that the necessary legtsla-

is now being framed. This legisla-
ton specifically directing the police
powers of the federal government to
the task of liquor law enforcement
will be ready for introduction in CON
