No Compromise

II Germany could bring about peace by negotiation before she
is finally and thoroughly beaten, she would Immediately get busy
preparing for the next war.
And the next war might throw the bulk of the burden on us.
There would be opportunities, in the meantime, for German
diplomacy to make new alliance and to split up the allies who are
now fighting her.
Anyhow, no dependence could be placed on any peace agree
nent the German government would make, so long as that govern
ment is controlled by the gang that throws treaties to the wind as so
many scraps of paper.
SO long IS the German people submit to the overlordship of the
lIohenzollerns-so long as they continue to believe in the brutal
philosophy on which the Wanted German kultur is based-just Sc
long will they be unfit for fellowship in a league of nations whose aim
is 10 preserve world peace.
Unless prevented by a premature peace, Germanys defeat is GER
tain. She is on the run now. She has passed the peak of power and
Is on the down grade. The job must be finished There can be nc

Today We Celebrate

The Beheading OF John the Baptist.
In the Catholic calendar today Is
set apart in COMMUNICATION OF the be-
heading of st. John the Baptist. In
former times 1t was the custom 10 OBJ
serve the day with ceremonies In
which the Baptist. Herod and Hero
dias Salome and the executioner hg-
ured. and this grisly drama is stin per-
petuated in some OF the remote Sec
tons of Europe.
The Decollation of st. John the
Baptist has been the theme of many
great works in literature n art
The dramatic story of the Baptists
execution and the part therein played
by the dancing Salome. Is thus briefly
set forth in st. Mathew:
A that seaso Herod the tet-
raroh heard the export concerning
Jesus, and said unto his servants.
This Is John he Baptist: he is risen
from the dead; and therefore do these
powers work in him. For Herod had
laid hold of John. and bound him. and
put him in prison for the sake of
Herodias. stb rother Philips wife.
For John said unto him. 1t Is not law-
fur for thee to have her. And when
he would have put him to death. ne
feared the multitude, because they
counted him as a prophet. But when
Herod's birthday came. the daughter
OF Herodias danced In the midst, and
! pleased Herod. Whereupon he prom
ised with an oath to give her whatso-
ever she should ask. And she, being
put forward by her mother. saith,
Give me here In a charger the head
OF John the Baptist And the king
was grieved: but for the sake OF
hts oaths. and of them which sat at
meat with him, he commanded Il TO
be given: and he sent and beheaded
John In the prison. And his head was
brought In a charger. and given to the
damsel; and she brought II to her
mother"
J Many additions and embellishments
TO this account OF the execution OF
John the Baptist have been made by
sacred and profane writer's. 81. Jer-
ONE relates that the furious Herodias
made II her pasttme TO prick the
tongue OF the saint with a bodkin.
