HINDENBURG,s ARMY

Won Hindenburgs plan to form a peoples guard or national
army to restore order in Germany may not be the ideal solution
for the vexatious problems confronting or endured by that coun-
try, but it at least has the semblance of common sense, which is
more than can be said for any other plan that has been sug-
gested.
We take it that persons of every nationality would like to
see Germany institute a sane government, if for no other reason
than to pull itself together and pay the allied nations the
Indemnity they have a right to require.
1t has never been the intention of this country to dictate the
form of government that the Germans should adopt. We could
mot defend before the world our belief in the right OF the people
to rule and deny to the people OF Germany or any other nation
President Wilson maintained from the beginning that he
would not discuss peace with those who were responsible for
the war, nor with one who was not the chosen spokesman Tor
the people. 1t was that determination, often reiterated, too often
some thought at the time, that made Wilhelm a wanderer upon
1.-THE face of the earth, and an outcast from his own nation.
1t was that determination of Wilson's, expressed in the
magic of his language, that removed the crown from the Hohen-
izollerns as deity as though he had lifted it with his hands. 1t
was not that the German people wanted to be rid of the kaiser
and his kind, but that they wanted peace more, and there was
no other way to get it, so, however reluctant they might have
been to lose their rulers, they were sacrificed for that which they
desired more, and for which they had a greater need,
The menace Of German miltarism is gone forever, so far
tas those now living are concerned. The military caste is in the
discard. Hindenburg, we recall was one OF the first to align
himself with the new order and announce his support of a demo-
Icratic government, 1t is not unlikely that vigorous measures
will be required to stamp out the infection that Germany
lendeavored to spread among other nations and which naturally
hgained some Roadway on her own soil.
Bolshevism is one Of the posons made in Germany. 1t

BY MRS. WILSON WOODROW,
The world famous writer on Vital subjects.

Dear Mrs, Woodrow: Please. please
read my letter and give me a little
advice, Circumstances are such that
either have to go to work or marry.
The man ! care for most has recently
failed In his business, and, although
! love him dearly, | cant bear the
thought Of marrying a man who could
hardly provide the necessities Of life.
There Is another man, though, who
begs mo to marry him; but | do not
know what to do. ] have never worked
In my life, ! just long for a home. |
crave beautiful things and ! am not
happy, unless have them. Sometimes
| think 1t would be the best thing for
me to do to SO out and work; but
am not strong. and | haven't n single
gift, Oh, do tell me which way to
decide. And with all my heart ] will
thank o a million times, ~"
There is an old and famous fable,
La Cigale," the story or the grass
hopper who played all summer long and
scorned the busy ants thrifty laying
up their winters store. But summer
came to an end as summers have u
way of doing. and the g~rasshopper found
herself shelterless, foodless, her gauzy
wings bodraggled In the autumn storms.
| leave 1t to your consideration, 1t
is an excellent thing, for pretty little
Srssshoppers to ponder over: -.
worth while advice as to the next move
on the chessboard OF life. For instance,
you might marry either Of your %suitors,
and discover that by sheer chance you
had done the wlsest possible thing for
all concerned; or you might be making
n ghastly and irrevocable mistake OF n
lifetime,
| must confess, however, that you
appear to be n most reckless gambler.
You are stalking your youth, beauty
and powers OF attraction to win a man
with sufficient money TO provide you
with the beautiful things you crave,
but riches have wings. No one can
| predict how well off he may be next
year or 10 years from now You are
| seriously considering discardiug one
| sutton because he has failed in bust
ness; but you can not so easily get
rid OF n husband who might encounter
financial wreck,
It is even within the bounds Of pos
sibility that you might find yourself
with an invalid husband and several
| little children to support. What would
you do about 1t, then?

into the vale he went. And down
there he found himself surrounded with

thlngS. AS he looked upon them he
sa" that they were the i~ncarnations of

long ago committed, showing their
threatening teeth before him!
Ihen he heard Someone approaching
and instinctively he knew it was the
Lord! And he felt so ashamed that he
drew a cloak over his face, and stood
IN silence. And the Presence came
nearer and nearer, until He, too, stood
silent. After a while my friend mas

Presence; and 10! all the loathsome
things were on Him!
