"Salaried" Man Hit Hardest.
(Spartanburg Journal.)

NSpai
An interesting discussion has been
taken up by some employers, in con-
nection with increasing the remun-
Grafton of their employees, 80 that
these employees may cope with the
increased cost OF living. Some OF
the largest business houses in the
north, after making a careful survey
Of the increased cost in all direc-
tions, have determined to advance
salaries in all departments approxi-
mately 40 per cent
The most interesting feature in
connection with the discussion is
that of who has suffered the most as
a result of the higher prices, the
man on a wage or the man on sal
airy. Figures are said to show that
the salaried employe is bearing the
heavier burden because the demand
for manual labor created by the war
has had the effect Of materially boost
ing wages, while this reckoning will
not hold good IN a majority of the
salaried employees cases

mother for living a life of self-indul-

SCISSORS AND PASTE.
Murderers to BE Handed Over.
Charlotte Observer

1t will be interesting to know what
is to be done in the case of Germans
who were guilty of atrocities during
the war. The suggestion by Fred
erick Edward Smith, the British at
torney general for the organization
of allied representatives, constituted
of both civil and military autbori-
ties, to try these parties and punish
them, settles one vexed question to
the satisfaction of the American
mind. 1t indicates that these male
factors are not to go scot free, but
that demand will be made upon Ger
many for their surrender into allied
power, just as was arranged with
Turkey. That we are going to have
few court martials and an attend
ant train OF subsequent proceedings
now seems pretty well assured

The people OF this country shud-

turned up in Boston harbor with
cargo of children's toys made in

1t mattered little that the toys
were carved and pasted together. In

many The playthings came from
the cities Of the Huns, they were
manufactured by hands kindred to
those that fashioned bombs and
poison gas and other deviltries, and
they were shipped to the children Of
America after many children had
been murdered on the Lusitania.
No other cargo from Germany

could have been charged with such
sinister suggestion or could have
stirred such bitter memories. The
Huns could have added horror to
the incident by sending the ship OF
toys into Belgian port for the dead
innocents Of that country.
The shudder over the thing will
result in ultimate harm to Germany
and benefit to this country, for
America has already begun to make
her own toys for her own children.

since, but, as in many other things

Before the bar Of humanity he has
been adjudged guilty of the greatest
crime since the crucifxion, and even
though no punishment may be

Following is biographical sketch
of the fallen war lord:

Upon him and the tremendous mill

he was the embodiment, the expon-

war the world has ever seen.
1t did not matter to the word
that the emperor's personal share
in the swift events Immediately pre-
ceding the war had been obscured.
The world convicted him of organ
izing, directing and maintaining at
the top notch of efficiency the great
German military machine. 1t re-
membered that he signed the order
for the German mobilization that he

Civilization will never forget that
it was the minions OF the emperor
who officially shot to death Edith

friended the Belgians in Brussels
Against these his cry "I did not
will the war" availed as nothing.
Before the bar of humanity William
was adjudged guilty Of the greatest
crime since the crucifixion. In him
humanity saw the last of the auto
Gratis, the final Caesar Assertions
that he was at heart peaceful, so
persistently circulated for years as
to give them the stamp Of German
propaganda, became branded as GER
tainly false. He who had long pro-
claimed himself the prince of peace
stood revealed as humanity's
scourge. and against him and all
that he represented rose the new
world of democracy and freedom
Many doubt whether William was
entirely sane. He said repeatedly
that he possessed a divine mandate
to rule. that the Almighty was his

is not entirely clear whether such
Outgivings were the product of a
disordered brain or were due to un-
bounded egotism and an effort to
impress his subjects with the idea Of
