What Victory of
Germans May Mean

Contributed by Arthur somers
Roche to the National Security
Leagues campaign of Patriotism
Through Education.)
I have a son two years old. want
him to be a sportsman. I want him
to be able win like a gentleman, to
lose like a man. I want him to grow
up in world where a victory gained
by foul tactics is incomprehensible
want him to feel, always, that his
word is sacred, that no advantage, to
himself or others, justifies the viola
| ton of his oath. [ want him to rev.
i erence the memory of his mother. to
| look upon all women with clean eyes.
1 want him to grant, as a matter of
fact, the demands of weakness upon
strength. I want him to look upon
human beings as individuals, to accept
cheerfully another's right to a belief
contrary to his own. I want him to
gain his own beliefs through search
ing his own soul, not by blindly ac-
cepting the dicta of others. I want
him to believe in a generous God, a
God Who as a Gentleman. not a de-
moniac God who plays favorites.
One judges a man by his professed
beliefs, by his acknowledged deeds.
One judges a race in the same man
ner. By their professed beliefs, by
their acknowledged deeds, I Judge the
Germans. And I firmly believe that
world ruled by them would be a
world in which it would be impossible
for my son to grow up to be the man
I want him to be.

BOZ. SHEvIKI RADA
Wants GERMANS
TO HALT March

Moscow, Saturday, March % (By
the Associated Press)-According to
an unconfrmed report the Ukrainian
bourgeois, rada (Which was response
Bile for the peace treaty with Russia
and is opposed by the Bolshevik
rada) has officially requested Ger
many to stop the advance of her
troops in Ukraine, as it tended tc
shake the confidence of the popula-
ton in the government. Germany
is said to have replied that she was
invited to restore order and could moi
leave until this was accomplished.
The Austro-Germa forces advanc-
ing in Ukraine are moving from both
the northwest and southwest agains
Kharkov, a transportation center, the
capture of which would isolate the
south of Russia from the north. The
Austrians have occupied Znamenka
about $50 miles southwest of khar-
kov, and Konotop, an equal distance
northwest of that city.
A dispatch from Dvinsk announces
that German officers, at a conference
presided over by Field Marshal Vor
Hindenburg, reached a decision te
continue the operations in Ukraine
until the power of the Bolshevik
there had been eliminated.

To be possessed of head of heavy,
beautiful hair; soft, lustrous, fluffy,
wavy and free from dandruff is mere
ly matter of using a little Dander-
inc.
1t is easy and inexpensive to have
nice, soft hair and lots of it. Just get
a small bottle of Knowlton's Dander-
inc now-it costs but a few cents-all
drug stores recommend it-apply a
little as directed and within ten min
utes there will be an appearance of
abundance, freshness, fluffiness and
an Incompatible gloss and lustre, and
try as you will you can not find a
trace of dandruff or falling hair; but
your real surprise will be after about
two weeks use, when you will see
new hair-fine and downy at first
yes-but really new hair-sprouting
out all over your scalp-Danderine is.
I'VE believe, the only sure hair grower,
destroyer of dandruff and cure for
itchy scalp, and it never fails to stop
falling hair at once.
If you want to prove how pretty
and soft your hair really is, moisten
cloth with little Danderine and
carefully draw it through your hair
taking one small strand at a time,
Your hair will be soft, glossy and
beautiful in just few moments-a
delightful surprise awaits everyone
who tries this.-Adv.

At the mouth of the Amazon they
picked UP Lopez and one of his adj
venturer captains, and under their
protection the ships made the little
river port without interference.
Happy Lopez; Poor Lopez!
During the entire journey Lopez
never left me for a moment. He was
happy, happy, he had obtained arms
for his enterprising Republic, happy,
because he found true partner! Poor
Lopezl Great disappointments we-te
awaiting him.
Al lac. =a reached his river port
where the material was unloaded by
Lopez and his scallawags, and the
transport of it into the desert interior
where the Kunani railway extends its
rusty rails through the wilderness be-
gan. The men of Kunani were care
less, for they had no cause to antiei-
pate danger of any kind.
During the journey across the des-
ert to Kunani a strong band of Ger
man Reservists, well supported by
Indians, who had been thoroughly or
ganized under the direction of Adler,
set upon Lopez guards. The Kunani
men put up a good fight but the at
lacking Germans were too numerous.
Many of the Kunani men were cap
tured and carried away while few
were killed in the fight. 1t, however
belonged, not to this story, but to
the miraculous story of the Republic
of Kunani.
Ferried to German Stronghold
The arms were loaded on flat bot
toned Scows, and tugged up tributar-
les of the Amazon almost unknown to
the geographer; the River of death,
the river of Ghosts, and the River OF
Dreams. The portage was made, and
on big RATS of logs, such as the In
dams float down to the trackless
plains of the South for sale, the rifles,
machine guns. and ammunition were
ferried to South of Brazil, where /
had finally the pleasure of seeing
them stored in the depots provided for
them.

TELL YOUR WIFE
CORNS LIFT OFF
Doesn't hurt a bit to lift corns
or calluSeS off with
fingers

Not a twinge of pain or soreness
before applying, or afterwards. This
may sound like a dream to corn
pestered men and women who have
been cutting, filing and wearing tor
turous plasters. Yes! Corns lift out
and cal1uses peel off as if by magic,
says this Cincinnati authority.
A quarter ounce of freezone costs
but a few cents at any drug store. APP
ply apply a few drops directly upon
your tender corn or callus, and in
stantly the soreness disappears; then
shortly the corn or callus will be so
loose that it lifts off.
Freezone dries instantly. 1t doesn't
eat out the corn or callus, but Just
shrivels it up so it lifts away without
even irritating the surrounding skin.
Women should keep it on the dresser
and never let a corn or caIlus ache
twice.-Adv.

JAILED FOR FLYING
THE GERMAN FLAG

New York, March 27-A German
flag flying from the fire escape of a
Harlem apartment today led to the
arrest of Mrs. Mary Taken and her
arrangement on a charge of disorderly
conduct. A magistrate told her he be-
lieved she was celebrating the Ger
man advance in France and sent her
to Jail for six months, saying he
wished the law permitted him to i'm
pose a more severe penalty as warn
ing to German sympathizers.
Neighbors testified that Mrs. Takeh
hauled in an American flag which
another tenant had insisted on flying
from her window. Mrs. Taken said
she had merely washed the German
emblem and put it out to dry.
The Interstate Commerce Commit
tee approved the increased demurrage
charges in New York.

Ne gods and ne dead, observes an
exchange.
The Greeks and Romans later began
the practice Of drinking to each other,
and from this arose the custom of
toasting living men. But health drink
ing In its modern form, originating In
England In the registering days of
Charles II, begins with the custom Of
drinking to the ladies or to any wom-
an who happened to be the reigning
belle Of the court
Many and various were the quaint
customs associated with the toasts of
those days. For example, In certain
companies Of military officers etiquette
demanded that the cup should be pass

ONLY HUMAN BEINGS cRUEl
Proud Man the Sole Living Creature
Capable Of Deliberately inflIctin0
Suffering on Others.

A cruel person is one who exults In
the pain, mental or bodily, suffered by
another. Cruelty has its basis I'm anger
(and thus is related to the combative
instinct), though there is cold-blood-
ed form of cruelty which may be en-
joyed without any obtrusive feeling Of
anger, Henry Campbell writes In the
Lancet, London.
Cruelty, implying as 1t does self
consciousness 1.-The ability to realize
the feelings of others-is essentially q
human attribute. Children who Inn
pale frogs and eviscerate flies cannot
be said to be cruel, for they know not
what they do. Nor are the lower ami
mails cruel, seeing that they are wholly
unconscious Of the sufferings of 9TH
ers. Thus the charge of cruelty against
the carnivora is unjust. These animals
generally destroy their victims out
right and In the rare cases (e. g., cat
and mouse) where they prolong the
suffering they have no knowledge OF
the pain they are causing. When
therefore, we stigmatize the conduct Of
the cruel man as brutal we wrong
the brutes.
The animal which attacks another,
and In so doing causes pain. merely
responds to a blind, unthinking In
stinct; but man, proud man, who looks
before and after, is able to realize and
take pleasure inSthe pain he deltber
ately, and by subtle means maybe. set
out to cause. It Is clearly absurd tt

Rather should we call 1t devilish, thu

If Life Worth Living?

Alfred Austin, who was made poet
laureate of England in 1890, and died
in 1913, at SO years of age. tells why
life is worth living in the following
serve:
Is life worth living? Yes, so long
As there is wrong to right,
Wall of the weak against the strong
OF tyranny to fight;
Long as there fingers gloom to chase
Or streaming tears to dry,
One kindred woe, one sorrowing face
That smiles as we. draw nigh;
Long as a tale of anguish swells
The heart and lids grow wet,
And at the sound of Christmas bells
We pardon and forget;
So long as faith with freedom reigns
And loyal hope survives,
And gracious charity remains
To leaven lowly lives,
While there is one untrodden tract
For intellect and will,
And men are free TO think and act,
Life is worth living still.
