Friendships !.

And little King Karl the young man who only recently ascended to the ancient Austrian throne, what of him? There is no word of him in the surrender terms His armies have been taken captive and his domains divided into many separate states What will he do with this brand new crown3 Wherever this little man is, he is doubtless thinking of the old adage about evil companions. He was the devils dupe. The stronger mind at Berlin ruled the weaker mind at Vienna Karl talked mighty fine when he ascended to the Haps- burg throne, but Wilhelm flattered him in one breath and threatened him in the next. as only Hohenzollern can do, and he de- clared undying friendship and allegiance to the Prussian power In the life of kings as we'll as common men, friendships make or break The boy in school may be known by his friendships. The young man in col lege also. The business man and the la borer, all are known by their intimacies with other men. They are known by their acts, their frame of mind, their path, their , thoughts and fancies Always mans friendships and associations lift and help and strengthen him, much or little along his way, or they drag him down or hamper or weaken him, much or little, in all his work or play.

Thus enrereth the fifth week of the local quarantine for the influenza epidemic. It Is a stubborn, as well as deadly scourge, and has been relentless in its siege of every community upon which it has made an att tack. But the peak has been passed here, and conditions are reported as much better all over the state, even in the north, where the disease was at its worst. Boards of health in the west have generally been slow to lift the quafantine. In the east where the disease was many times worse than in the west quarantine was lifted promptly with the passing of the peak. Far be 1t from this column to try to even argue with any board of health, much less tell these learned medical gentlemen what to do, but to man up tree; to a spokesman for community closed and dull, it would urge the lifting of the ban and the lower ing of the bars as soon as may be. his quarantine is most severe hardship upon many business men and people of the com munity Its usefulness has been served. Some announcement should surely be made soon, as to the date of its suspension. The grippe and the pneumonia we have with us all winter long, and have always had these twin plaques. But when the sickness passes the epidemic stage quar- antine is little short of tyranny.

The British Navy

The British navy made Waterloo pos sible, and therefore kept Napoleon from conquering England long years before the fateful Belgium battle. But it had to fight two terrible sea engagements, the one at the Nile and the other at Trafalgar, before its supremacy was assured But in this war the British Navy brought about Ger many's defeat without it being necessary to fight any real battle at sea. It's suprem- acy has never been questioned. In the ut land fight only a small part of the British fleet was engaged, the German navy seek ing safety in flight before Admiral Jelli coe's eager bulldogs of the sea could reach the scene of the battle From the first day of the war up to this time, not single German keel, excepting raider or two, which we're soon destroyed, has appeared. upon the seas. The British grand fleet has more completely commanded the high seas than ever they were commanded before in war between maritime powers. And in spite of the German under sea boats, Brit ish control of the seas for all purposes has never even been imperiled. Who won the war? An admiring world points to France and her heroism in bearing the brunt for the first two years. Yes. France did bear the brunt and save the day, but Germany would have taken Paris but for the British fleet Who won the war9 Many think that American men and material decided it. Yes, but without the British fleet not a man from America or pound of food could have been transported to France. Who won the war? Many thoughtful per sons believe that British valor and staying qualities and bulldog pluck saved the day. But without the British fleet to bridge the channel British valor would have rusted at home awaiting the Hunnish invasion. Doubt it not; the British fleet was the mightiest factor in the winning of the war For four long, terrible years Germany far excelled all allied effort upon land, but never for an hour of that period did she even attempt to dispute the allied posses sion of the sea. And no great nation since the world was made ever won great war with closed ports.

No one who has not read of Italy's strug- gles fSr freedom from the Austrian yoke, off and on, for theIp past 60-years or so, can fully appreciate ltaly's joy and pride and deep thanksgiving this day. For years and cities along the rivers and on the Lombardy plains were garrisoned by Austrian troops and oppressed by Austrian rule. Venice, Florence, Verona, Padua and even Milan were at the mercy of the hated whitecoats, as the Austrian troops were designated by the Italian patriots of those days. And the redshirts, which Is to say, the vinedressers and tinkers and princes and peasants and singers and poets of that fair land, fought often against odds and died by the thou sands under Garibaldi and others for free dom They won back part, but never all. Italian blood and Italian land were held by Austria until yesterday. And Italian spirit and pride could never be satisfied entirely until the house of Hapsburg fell. This col umn has never been able to get excited over the fighting qualities of the Italians in this, or any war, since Rome fell and the old legionaries exchanged their short
 
 the tomb. But at that, Italy has been a tower of help to the allied cause ever since the flaming voices of her poets and her peasants and her princes brought her into the war She has been through dark days. Her coal and munition supplies failed. She was defeated by treachery after a year of toll and sacrifice in taking mountain fast nesses. But, sustained by some lingering flashes of that spirit of old Rome, she came back in morale and held the line of the Piave and sustained the worst that Aus tria could do last summer, and then, when Foch gave the word, she struck right home at the Austrian forces like the lightning blast and gained the quickest and most spectacular victory of the entire war
 It Is true that she had only Austrian troops to beat, but, with the collapse of Russia she was the sole allied dependence outside of the western battle front. She had suffered much and sacrificed in the war, but great has been her reward. Never again will she have Austria to fear. Her national spirit and unity of interest and pride of achievement will bear her on to a finer place than she has held among the nations since the days of her ancient great ness. Her loyalty and devotion to the al- lied cause will never be forgotten in the great nations of England, France and America Consider; with Germany hum bled, Russia in a state of chaos and Aus tria dismembered.
