content remained. Some who had gone
to America and returned with savings
enough to set themselves up in BUSH

American idea.
Annuneiata listened to the end. She
felt no pity for those who would bet

her resentment she included the king
himself. He should have done better.

THE GUILTY SHOULD BE PUNISHED.

In the articles of the armstce revised by General
Foch article has been seemingly changed very ma
teriay from the original draft Apparently that article
foresas any attempt to punish the leaders respon
sibe for the published and generally believed at
rocities committed especially in Belgium and northern
France as well as those responsible for the sinking of
the Lusana with its attendant loss of life of innocent
non-combatants.
Naturally this article is very much criticised by those
who believe that will enable the guilty to escape
ited punishment
And in this connection, the punishment of the lead
ers of PrusSan mitariSm and rhesSness raises an in
teresting question
Who was personally responsible for the beginning
of the war and the barbarous fashion in which it in
many instances prosecuted?
We must remember that Germany was, up to the
abdcation of the kaiser under almost despotc govern
ment Everybody was taught from childhood to obey
orders The petty official delivered his orders to the
civilian and obedience to the letter was required and
given This official received his orders from above
him and he from another higher up and so on up the lad
der to the very highest power in the empire.
The soldiers who committed atrocities in Belgium
and France abeyed orders and those who gave the orders
received the mfrom commanders higher up. The Ger
did not know how to dsobey order matter how
dstastefu or apparently unjust seemed to be- 1t was
an order to be obeyed without question
Then the responsibility really reached up to the
kaiser and the mitarsts who surrounded him. the class
which ruled Germany with an iron hand and to dis
obey whom meant dire punishment death If the dis
obeyance was regarded as of serious consequence.
If there is punishment to be meted out the kaiser
Hindenburg Ludendorff Mackensen, Won Tirpitz and
few more of that inner exclusive circle of the high priests
of mitarsm should suffer it. The men who actually
committed the crimes of frghtfuness that caused our
own early Indian outrages to pale in comparison were
mere puppets Most of them thought for an in
stant that it in the bounds Of possibility to dsobey
the orders of the high command
The men who drenched the world in blood and left at
the end of the nightmare of death and violence torn and
bleeding people to beg for mercy of outraged world
should not go unpunshed There should be no aib for
them
Let us hope that article VII of the armistice terms
is generally misinterpreted

Ruth was surprised at her aunt IS
attitude. Surprised and pleased, she
had expected she would be SO opposed
to her going to work, that it might
make her visit unpleasant. She well
eomed the change without, in the least.
appreeiating the cause. Her aunt had
come North with the sole intention of
seeing if she could not persuade her
niece to give up her work and return
South with her. Her meeting with
Arthur Mandel, her quick appreciation
OF his feelings toward Ruth, had cause d
her to change her mind, and also to de-
sist from disparaging remarks about
women who went out into tho world
I! and worked.
In general she had in no wise chang
ed her deep-rooted opinions or dismiss
ed her prejudice against women work
ing outside of the home. But her cley
er wit had seen at once that for Ruth
to continue, was in time to bev-s.s dis
contented with Brian, and to realize
Mandel's superionty-at least she per-
suaded herself that this would happen.
Not that she disliked Brian Hackett for
any particular thing he had done; but
because of his failure to succeed flnsn-
cially, she looked upon him as almost
a nonentity, one not to be considered
, in her plans.
When Brian heard that Mrs. Clay
born was to extend htr visit he groaned
inwardedly. He was not unaware of
her attitude toward him, and altho he
resented it, he did not allow himself
to show that he did. She was rela-
tive of Ruth s, almost the only one she
had. He would be as gracious as he
could for Ruth s sake. But the very
next day he called Mollie King UP and
lasked her to lunch with him, and con-
fided to her sympathetic ears the way
he felt because of his inability to be
with her as often as he had been of late
