REVENGE.

What is it the mob always
seeks? Not justice, but revenge.
Punishment according to law will
not suffice. 1t is torture that is
demanded. Of course perfect
justice the law may seldom secure.
1t may take life for a life; it
cannot make reparation for the in
expressible spiritual suffering a
crime, involving murder, for ex-
ample, may have caused. But
beyond the punishment provided
by the law men and nations may
not 60. They may not make even
the slightest approach toward Il
punishment inspired by the spirit
Of revenge. The idea Of subject
ing the criminal to physical tor
ment as par ito his penalty is
obhorrent both to a right minded
man and just tribunal.
When, however. one reads to-
day to comments Of many an
American newspaper, and the re-
ports Of the public utterances OF
more or less distinguished poll
ticians, ministers, and others. he
is startled to see the old spirit OF
the mob asserting itself. The en-
emies of the Allies must not sim.
ply be punished, made to make
reparation wherever reparatlon
can be made, we are told, but
their cities must be burned, Their
land laid waste, that is, we must
commit the same crimes they have
committed, and which have hor
rified Us and outraged our sense
of justice. Then what better are
we than they? How much furth
err toward the truth and the light
has our "Kultur led us than
theirs has led them!
1t is out Of this spirit that
springs the desire to see the war
ended. not when the things the
Allies have fought for are fully
attained, but only when with the
ends attained, there can be pres
ent also the consciousness on the
part of the victors that they have
had their revenge. Shall this war
brutalize us, or shall we come out
of it with our ideals of justice and
honor still unimpaired Our
Dumb Animals.

SUBMARINE SPOTTING FROM
THE AIR.

Submarine hunting was a fas
cinating war sport if one was OF
a patrol boat or fast torpedo-boa'
destroyer, but it was doubly so Il
the hunt took place in the air II
a big naval seaplane. says Henry
4. Eamo. in the January Popular
Mechanics Magazine.
To understand just how excl,
inc submarine spotting really was
it will be necessary for me t.
transport you to an isolated spot
Oh the coast of Northumberland,
in the north of England. Hid
den in a small bay, and cleVerely
camoufaged, are several large
hangers with runWays leading
into the water. It is almost day
light and one Of the seaplanes IS
pushed out Of its hungar and IS
soon resting on the water.
The plane is well out of sight
of land now. Are there any sub
marines in the vicinity? All five
of the crew are eagerly scanning
the sea, each hoping to be the first
to spot the hidden enemy. Down
glides the plane, 500, 600, 400
feet, then up again to over a
thousand. The second pilot sud
denly points downward. Has he
discovered submarine? He must
make sure. There it is A dark
shadow. not even showing a per-
iscope. Again the wireless call
flashes out, this time with news
that the enemy has been located
at such and such d point. From
five different courses the patrol
boats turn and speed toward the
spot. The pilot Of the seaplanc
is not idle; down he swoops near
err and nearer to the water. lie
waits until he is a little ahead Of
the submarine, then dives like a
hawk toward the surface Of the
sea. The second pilot and one
gunner, each at bomb release,
pull back the levers and two depth
bombs drop like plummetS \
quick bank and the plane rocks
from the explosion; then, with the
motor throttled, the machine
dashes down in a nose dive. No,
the pilot is not hit by his own
bombs; he wants to observe the
damage done. Up from the depths
comes the submarine, a big one,
rolling like a log and evidently
badly holed.

We have seen signs that ind
cate that gambling of various
kinds is getting foothold in the
community. Notice the effect Of
this crime upon domestic happi-
ness. 1t has sent y it's ruthless
plowshare thru hundreds of fam
lilies, until the wife sat in rags,
and the daughters were disgraceG,
and the sons grew up to the same
Infamous practices or took a
short cut to the destruction across
the murderer's scaffold. Home
has lost all charms for the
gambler. How tame are chill
dren's caresses and wifes devo-
ton to the gambler! How
dearly the fire burns on the do
nestle hearth! There must be
louder laughter, and something
to win and something ia lose, an
excitement to drive the heart
faster and fill the blood and fire
the imagination. No home, how
ever bright, can keep back the
gamester. The sweet call Of love
bounds back from the iron soul,
and all endearments are con
in the fame Of his passion.

KRAMER HATCH IN THE
THICK OF THE BATTLES

we reproduce herewith, a mil
ltary document given to Nh.
Kramer Hatch, a son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. W. G. Hatch of this City by
General Menoher Of the EXpedi-
tlonary Forces in France. Mr..
Hatch volunteered at the early
outbreak Of the war. and be-
came a member Of the famous
Rainbow Division which won such
fame in France in the thickness Of
the battles before the armistice
was signed:
- Headquarters. 42nd Division,
e American Expeditionary Foc-
ces, France, Aug. 13, 1918.
To the Officers and Men of The 42d
Division:
A year has elapsed since the
formation Of your organization.
1t is, therefore, fitting to consid-
err what you have accomplished
as a combat division and what
you should prepare to accomr-
fish in the future.
Your first elements entered the
trenches in Lorraine on February
21st. You served on that front
for 10 days. You were the first
American division to hold a dl-
vlsional sector and when you lett
the sector June 2lst, you had
served continuously as a division
in the trenches for longer time
than any other Americ an division.
Although you entered the sector
without experience in actual war
fare. You so conducted yourselves
as to win the respect and affection
f the French veterans with
whom you fought. Under gas
and bombardment, in raids, III
patrols, in the heat Of hand to
hand combat and in the long dull
hours Of trench routine SO trying
to a soldiers spirit, you bore
yourselves in a manner worthy
of the traditions Of our country.
You were withdrawn from Lor-
raine and moved Immediately to
the Champagne front where dur
ing the critical days from July
14th to July 18th, you had the
honor Of being the only American
division to fight in General Col
raud's Army which SO glorlouslv
obeyed his order, owe will stand
or de- and by its iron defense
crushed the German assault and
made possible the offensive OF
july 18th to the west Of Reims.
From Champagne you were
called to take part in exploiting
the success north of the Marine.
Fresh from the battle front be-
fore Chalons, you were thrown
against the picked troops of Ger
many. For eight consecutive
days. you attacked skillfully pre-
pared positions. You captured
great stores Of farms and NUM-
lions. You forced the crossings
of the Ourcq. You took Hill PIP,
Sergy, Meurcy Ferme and Sc
ringes by assault. You drove the
enemy, including an Imperial
Guard Division, before you for a
depth Of fifteen kilometers. When
your infantry was relieved, it was
in full pursuit of the retreating
Germans. and your artillery con-
tinued to progress and support
another American division in the
advance to the Vesle.
For your services in Lorraine,
your division was formally COM
mended in General Orders by the
French Army Corps under which
you served. For your services in /
Champagne. your assembled Off
GERS received the personal thanks
and commentator of General
Gouraud himself. For your serE-
ices on the Ourcq. your division
