could not defend ourselves.
We should have allowed this new
horror to become a part Of all future
wars, and have been responsible for
its Incorporation into international
law.
We should have proved that be-
cause the fire which burns up "a
farms usefulness is beyond the hori-
zon, we would submit to the kindling
Of it.
We might have accepted the sew
enty cents for wheat and the six cents
for cotton, but we could not have
done it merely because we were
commanded to do it. BY so doing
we should have accepted degrade
ton. We should have begun, after
winning our freedom in our
revolution and establishing a union
on the foundation Of liberty in the
blood and tears of our war between
the states, to knuokle under to autoc-
racyi We should have basely yielded
up our birthright as Americans.
Such a thought is intolerable. Peace
at such a price would not be peace,
but only a preparation for a future
revolt against s%ubjugation. Better
any sort Of war; better war forever,
that that.
Whenever the time comes for new
sacrifices, let us remember that we
fight, not for our liberties tomorrow,
or next year or twenty years from
now, but for our freedom today. MOI

for the right to make a living this
year.
German oppression had begun to
pinch US before we entered the war.
If we had not declared war, but had
accepted the conditions of life ordered
for us by the Kaiser, we should today
be a poverty-stricken people. Our
factories would be shut down. u
workmen unemployed, u people
starving, our farmers ruined by the
poverty of those for whose consump-
tion they grow their crops. There is
loss and sacrifice in the war. but
there would have been far more OF
loss and sacrifice in accepting the
German terms. We should have lost
more in money than We have spent
in the war, but we should have lost
something far more precious. We
should have lost our souls.

WHAT DICK PETIT SAID TO
MADGE.

MADGE.
Dicky stopped his wild rush along
the floor OF Madison Square Garden
so suddenly that I expected 20 see
him take q header over the man
nearest MIN. His face held so cha
otto a mixture Of emotions that I
almost laughed outright Relief,
chagrin, bewilderment, rage. all
were reflected in his face and eyes.
For a moment he stood perfectly
mOtiOnless, glazing up at me where
sat in the small balcony with DR..
Petit. Then he snapped his fingers
with a gesture that I knew meant
the beginning Of one of his uncon-
trOllable RACES, and, turning on his
heel, disappeared in the crowd
For a moment could hardly
believe my eyes II surely was in
credible that Dicxy, after summar-
ily leaving me in a mob such as
that which swirled around Madison
Square Garden on the night of the
presidents speech there, should re-
sent my being under me protection
Of Or. Petit
Common sense ought to have told
him that I must have met DR.. Petit
by accident in the crowd; common
decency ought 70 have made him
grateful that 1 had found some one

crush of the crowd after ne had left
my side TO rescue a girl he knew
from the danger of being killed.
But / had lived with Dicky long

reaction of finding me. safe and APP

company Of DR.. Pettit-of whom ne
always had been unreasonab bly, jeal-
ous-had been too much for his al
always uncertain temper.
"NOr Did / Care"
cast a sidelong glance at Dr.
Petit. wondering If he had recog-
nized Dicky BY a certain grim
tightening Of his lips I realized that
he must have done so. It was a
long minute before he spoke and he
had all the appearance of a man
trying 10 control himself. I knew
what was passing through his mind
as well as if he had spoken his
thoughts aloud I had long suspect
ed that the young physician did not
like Dicky. did not approve of him,
and that the reason for his attitude
was his resentment of the cavalier
treatment nv husband sometimes
accorded. At last he spoke, tensely
but quietly.
Pardon me. Mrs. Graham. would
not refer to this painful subject if
were not compelled TO. but your
husband is evidently very angry. DC

had been handed 10 us in common
with the other occupants of the lit

The demonstration lasted almost

instead of acceding to his request
every appearance of his at the front
Of the stand was the signal for re-

"The people i'm this crowd don't

DR. Petit muttered in a disguised
tone to himself. and l agreed with
him

that the president must leave in a
