Ed Riggin received copy of the
"Stars and Stripes" newspaper
published in France by the Amer
ican Expeditionary Forces. We are
publishing an editorial clipped
from the columns of this paper,
which should be taken to heart by
some of us here at home who are
grumbling because the burden of
the war is becoming too heavy to
bear The contrast between our
own secure, well-fed and prosper
Gus conditions, to the hardsbips our
boys in France are undergoing. is
enough to cause a feeling of shame
that we are shirking any of the re-
sponsibilities that we could assume.
"Once in a while the temptation
to grumble seems overpowering.
Back home or back of the lines
where monotony often enters, some
piece of drudgrey or some sacrifice
may bring out complaint.
Whatever the temptation to
grumble may be. take look at this
picture before doing so.
In recent push to the Vesle a
Yank outfit fought its way forward
for six days, chasing the beaten
Hun.
For six days it tackled machine
gun nests, faced rifle and shell fire,
and yet moved so swiftly that none
of its field kitchens could keep up
the pace.
So for six days in addition to it's
many other burdens, this oragniza-
tion went unfed except for a few
cold morsels dealt out sparingly to
preserve existence. Yet when the
first mess sergeant finally caught up
with the detachment he heard no
grumbling, no complaining, no bit
terness of any sort. He found each
man accepting the situation as part
of the game he was playing, as part
of the burden he had come to carry,
as part of the sacrifice he had to

Some idea of what this tremendous velocity means may be gathered when one reflects that it is equivalent to about one mile a second If we should be able to increase this velocity just five times projectile could be thrown high enough to revolve externally about the earth as a satellite. Increase the velocity of the shell from the German gun just seven times and the projectile would go hurt ling into space beyond the attraction of the earth with Arcturus or Aldebaran
 One of our magazine writers refers to the bombardment of Paris by the German lopg-range gun when he observes that
 day after day those shells from the Big Bertha guns, whose scream was so much worse than their bite, fell in irregular pattern over the city" One wonders whether the writer really heard the scream of those shells or whether. because other big shells can be heard coming, he imagined this particular shell also gave warning of its approach Accurate call culation shows that the German shell with an initial velocity had whatSthe ar tillerists call a remaining velocity of about 200o feet per second, which is just about two and one-haf times the rate at which sound travels. In this it was like lightning in that when you hear the crash the bolt has already landed

RECALLING 1884

 One does not have to be very old to remember when Carl Millockers opera The Black Hussar," was the talk of this town. The evergreen Cottrely en- faded from memory except De Wolf Hopper in the part of an anxious inn. Keeper in the Rhineland. He had had a sign painted, on one side of which gloomed the features of Napoleon, while the other emblazoned the wooden implacl ability of Frederick William When ever the Prussian troops marched through the town the innkeeper, who was also mayor or postmaster, we forget which turned Frederick William to their gaze, and spoke eloquently of Prussian libera tion; when the French marched in, he to the newcomers, and thrilled them with arias about the empire and the con federation of the Rhine. At last the French and Prussians began chasing each other through the town, and Mir. Hopper grew so busy batting the sign around l ehot HC sNoiiei dttctt utTNOuS pFOSlTaLlOn.
 This verto-be-forgotten offering of the dead and gone McCaull Opera com pany rises immediately before us when We read such headlines as Rhine Popu- lations Welcome Allies Is the old mayor of "The Black Hussar" still on the job? The sign seems to be swinging withsa celerity that dumbfounds the Brit ish as they move past the inn door,
 "As we approach. the Rhine our recep. ton becomes more surprising. The au. thorities in such places as Duren say undisguisedly that they rejoice at our arrival"
 The authorities are slow at swinging the sign Tho people grow impa tient, and hang around it themselves so as to show King Georges face unmistakably where Kaiser Wilhelm's shone forth of yorc:
 The mayors and their staffs act with admirable dignity, but much of the pop ulation is almost obsequious and servile to our men"

It would make Christ mas less of a nightmare for grown up people with responsibilities and limited means and it would spare many an aching little heart which can not understand why one child should get so many more toys than another.

LUKE M,LukE SAYS

Maybe the reason why g woman is usually so loyal to her husband is be- cause he isn't that way to her.
 Any time you call on a girl and she comes to the front door to meet you dressed In a greasy kimono and minus half of her hair it Is sign that you are about as popular as the flu as far as she Is concerned.
 The trouble with the youth who is wearing an almost mustache is that he imagines he looks as human as you do.
 A lot of the Ohio drys who voted to take drinks away from other men are now indignating about the intolerance of the other non smoking drys who have started in to take cigarettes away from the drys who smoke.
 It may seem paradoxicai. But the less wife costs man the dearer she is to him.
 If you want a man to be glad to gee you again always let him do all the talking while you are with him.
 Any husband can tell you that the reason rich man is rich is because when a wife knows that she can't afford to buy things she doesn't want them.
 When fat woman tries to act kit tenish she should be reminded that an elephant is respected because it has sense enough to act dignified.
 When a mans underwear gets rag gedy he throws it away. But when a womans underwear gets raggedy she saves 1t and wears it around the house. |,
 A Stuff announces that she wants a mans vote and not his name But a smart woman marries a man and gets both.
 After man sizes himself up in the mirror he either admits that he is good looking or that he is clever.
 Don't get the idea that girl is good- natured just because she is smiling all the time Maybe she has dimples.
 And what has become of the Q. {. autograph album in which girl made you write a lot of mush?

A WORD TO PAeIFIsTs
om the New York Telegram.

from the New fork Telegram.
 When the Rev. Henry Van Dyke, one- time minister to the Netherlands, wants to bar pacifists from voicing their policies at the peace table, he suggests something that will appeal strongly all over the world. ;,
 One time minister to the Netherlands, pr. Van Dyke has been lover there" and knows conditions, and the fact that he IS. minister of the gospel and wearing the uniform of the United States navy as a chaplain with rank of commander did not prevent him saying:
 Not one anaemic pacifist did anything to win this war, and not one anaen1ic pacifist shall have anything to do with settling the terms of peace"
 pr. Van Dyke reeited several cases of German atrocities that came to his at- tenton while he was in Europe at the beginning of the war. When he told the. story. of German soldier bayonetting Belgian child of two or three years who was in his way. and later crucifying 1t on the fathers barn door, women .n the galleries gritted their teeth Dr Van Dyke said he heard the story from lhs chllds father and the facts were later verified by an attache of the legation
 No time, no extension of the arnlstices must be permitted to blot out Of mind the awful crimes professional pacifists and trade mongers and vote getters are so anxious to have forgotten :

A TRIP TO THE MOON

From the Louisville Courier-Journal. 6T1O those familiar from childhood
 with the adventures of Captain
 S Memo in the Nautilus" the devel- opment of the modern submarine brought no particular surprise. Who shall say, therefore, that we may ffot some day see realized in some measure the dream of "De La Terre La Lune?' It will be recalled that Jules vernes hero went to the moon in a shell fired at velocity so great that it got beyond the attrac- tion of the earth and went .scooting to it's destination.
 The great war, through the instrument tality of the German supercannon, gave us something unprecedented in the mattel of high velocities. The muzzle velocity of the American 3-inch gun is 17o0 feet per second. Some 30 years ago Sir Andrew Noble of England, secured an initial ve- locity of 32o0s feet per second with 6- inch gun, and 4O00 feet per second was secured In 1904 by British artillerists testing air resistance, but these velocities were not with weapons fitted for the ordinary uses of warfare. The French s75'' has approximately the same initial velocity as our 3-inch piece-1I00 feet per second The great German guns how ever, developed a muzzle velocity or 5000 feet per second.

BEER IN CHINA

From the New York World
 Brewers, it appears from a, statement by the president of their state associae ton in California, their occupation here now being under ban, fare looking to China as the best place to go." He him self is leaving in a few lays for that country to arrange for the construction of g, 100000 plant and 'other brewers are making similar arrangements" China. having forbidden the sale of opium, should find beer help to the strict enforcement of the decree As the lesser of two evils, perhaps even pro- hibitionist sentiment will condone the
 introduction in the orient of the beverage now prescribed in this country of more
 sensitive moral regulation No doubt travellers from dry America making the tour of the world will find it convent ent to include the mandarin land in their intinerary.
 But the significant thing about beer in China Is it's bearing on the future of the country's social and ethical evolution With breweries and saloons in full blast there will inevitably arise an Anti-S Saloon league, and with this improving moral force at work the old order of things will undergo a new ferment Prohipl- tion and personal liberty will become the vital issues of legislation. and civilization in the -lowery republic will attain lts highest state of occidental development

ilhelm Left Behind Extensive Wardrobe

A N Associated Press dispatch, SGA quoting a Berlin newspaper, avs bare some interesting details re- arding the famous imperial wardrobe If the former Kaiser. At various times the number of his uniforms has .a . stated and commented upon, and
 humber of his castles, but recent events have made it possible for pro- fane hands to be laid on Wilhelm's arade clothes. It is said that there ere found in his wardrobe 598 Ger an and foreign military and naval Informs. Truly an imposing assort- mt, both in point of numbers and s4rtorial splendor.
 The ex-Kaiser, while hopefully waiting and planning to take his place in the sun, contrived to keep always n the public eye. What more natural an that he should have a uniform every time and every occasion, lether it were hobnobbing with his ture brother-in-arm the Sultan, marching grandly into Jerusalem or ;trutting on the deck of battleship? What is royalty, anyhow, without the rappings? A dull show, indeed, little
 apted to the kingly purpose of giv-
 one's subjects something to talk
 put.
 Now, we are informed that Wilhelm, termed in Holland and wondering hat the future holds in store, wears le drab attire befitting his altered ,-tunes. On rare occasions he has cen photographed in civilian clothes, ut neither the sitter nor the pho- ,grapher appears to have been hap y. Those were not the photographs 'ilhelm autographed and scattered bout the world with a lavish hand. fter seeing one of those pictures, ho could blame him for wishing to ep them shut fast in the family aun?
