WHAT DO YOU CALL THEM?

OF all the silly things printed re-
Gently in the New York sun, the sill
Hest, by tar is Il rebuke admins
tered by that paper to Secretary
Baker for referring to soldiers in
France as "boys'' The Sun wakes
indignant at the liberty taken by Mr..
Baker, and adds that the soldiers will
resent the use OF the term, inasmuch
as they are ''full-glown two listed,
husky men"
We are in full accord with the
New York World in its editorial COM
ment on the Suns outburst. This
morning the World gave the follow
ing reply to its metropolitan contem-
porary:
1t occurs to the indignant,
shining Sun that these soldiers
achieved mans estate before
they quit civilian life" that they
are uOlnS lldn WOTk now anu
that Ito refer to them as If they
were college undergraduates or
pupils in a High school betokens
a cloudy comprehension of their
status, physically, mentally and
socially"
We hope Secretary Baker will
accept this rebuke in a becoming
spirit and see the error Of his
ways He has, with the thought
Iesness of his official company,
placed himself on a level with
the mere mothers, fathers and
sweethearts of the Land, all pray
ing and yearning for their "boys'
over there: on a level with the
nation itself, which a couple of
generations ago became pre-
sumptuously foolish over it's
boys in blue, some Of them
gray-headed, who were engaged
in what many people took to be
the mems task of keeping the
country whole.
Most persons have been willing
to admit a plea Of fond sentiment
tally in this constituencies mis-
use of a household word. When
most people get to be as old and
as meticulously wise as the Sun
they will know better.
And we believe that, despite the
Suns apparent horror at the employ
ment of the homely phrase. the lads
in khaki will continue to be called
boys" because they understand that
It comes from the heart.

THE NEXT CONGRESS.

Judging from latest reports, the
n@xt House OF Representative will be
organized and controlled by the Re-

ne though the Democrats would re-
tain control OF the Senate by a ma

hnaI returns may produce tie. in
which case the deciding vote on all
measures would be cast by Vice
President Marshall, who is presiden
of the Senate by virtue of his office
Il the Presidents party retains con-
troll of the Senate. he is assured Of a,
free hand in peace negotiations,
which must be ratified by the upper
house Of Congress under the provf-

before the actual results are known
beyond doubt. In the mean time the

within few days, or possibly a few

THE WHITE Flag.

Runors of the cessation of hostii-
ties and immediate peace are flying
abopt thick and fast AS these lines
are written. the only positive news
received from unquestionable sources
stated merely that the German armis-
tice representatives had arrived at
the western front and had been per-
mitted to enter the lines of the AL
lies under a flag OF truce. This In
formation was supplemented by a
statement from London expressing
the belief that actual fighting will
cease within a few days.
Such are the facts at hand. There
can be no doubt that Germany is at
the end of her resources. Interior
conditions are upset by revolutions
and mutiny in the navy is reported to
have occurred. The German armies
face Overwhelming disaster in the
west where they are being surround
ed by the gallant men under Marshal
Foch. The end of hostiIities, accord
ing to authentic sources of inforna-
ton. is a matter of a few days II
Germany signs the armistice con-
ferenoes and peace negotiations will
commence forthwith, but they will last
over the best part of a year. In the
meantime. the Allies will take all
necessary measures OF precaution to
proteot their interests.
We may await developments with
supreme confidence.
