UP TO HIS OLD TRICKS

The greatest gains of the Contra
Powers in the war that has beer
Waglng since 1914 have resulted from
perfdy. When the tide was not flow
ing the right way at Verdun, German
treachery began to work, ard d peace
offering was put out to tempt the Al
lies Accompanied by the intrigues Of
spies Al d the spreading of propaganda
n Allied coutries, this peace fceler re
suited in conditions that brought the
Allies close to the brink of disaster
Russia was made to fall into the traI
of Bolshevik pIunderers and Italian
morale was all but undermined.
Again the armies of the kaiser, aftel
he Allies by dint of grind and strug-
gle have recovered from that former
insincere peace move, are being shot
in the rear as they retreat, and the
kaiser, hopeful of success from in
trigues, of which he thinks himself
The master but he isn't is launching
a new peace offensive. That is what
il is and nothing else, peace often
sive a Judas-waving of the white
lag.
But the Allies take the word of the
kaiser today at its face value, not
worth a tinker's dam, and there will
not be a repetition of disintegraton
that followed the former peace move.
The kaiser has won the name Of arch
butcher, but he must pay, and he will.

DELINQUENT PUBLICATION PRACTICAL

The publication of the delinquent ta>
list has been found "a practical econ
omy in almost every commonwealth II
the Union.
The Oregonian last week called at
tention to the effect of publication oi
the names Of slackers in the Iibertl
Loan campaign in Portland The
names of four slackers were otfereo
by the Portland committee to the
newspapers. Only three appeared il
print The fourth heard of the coming
publicity and he hurried to make q
substantial subscription.

The anti-delinquent tax publication

possible from vacant garden plots,

all instances a fire lot of products this
summer and fall.
Pretty soon the United States Food
Administration is going to announce
its new food saving program Because
Germany is 'possuming and trying
to win a victory through insincere
peace proposals, one should not reach
the conclusion that we are going to

THE MODERN MIRACLE

the children of Israel under Moses
were hard pressed and faced utter de
feat on the shores Of the Red Set
when. as the interesting chronicles Of
Scripture unroll for us, the Lord of
Hosts, answering the prayer of Moses
rolled up on either hand the waters
and dry lane was made for the Isra
elites As a result Of the great mir
acle Moses and his followers reached
safety and the pursuing ones, as the
waters rolled back into place, were
drowned.
A modern miracle has been worked
a miracle affecting not a little pond,
hut one of the five oceans. America
shpbuilders have worked the miracle
Of bridging the 5000 mie.wide Allan

million people have been answerd by
the working Of this modern miracle
So stupendous has been the greal
achievement that we can scarcely com.
prehend it. From nearly every ham

An interesting phase of the fruit

for the wide margin between the Wic,

to the retailer There is too wide L
margin, and the man or the corpora
tion should be reached who is keeping
the price to the grower too low and al
the same time is keeping the price t,
