That the United States viii Dictate Peace Terms

lfered before. That may be so; no
one can tell.
But one thing is certain, and that
Is II peace proposals are made the
civilized world will listen TO the
voice OF Woodrow wilson. His
word will be accepted by France
and England and Belgium, and back
| OF the line. where the enemy is
battling against civilization his
words will be greeted with respect" 4"
"ln England and France" con-
tinued Mr.. Cobb, "men asked me this
question; Whom have we here to
whom all the people will listen? We
have no such man. Now, we do not
know what you Americans think
about 1t, but you have man in
Washington to whom we will listen,
and that man Is your president Mr.,
WILSON,"
All Defer TO Wilson.
Plainly Mr.. Cobb brought back
evidence--if evidence were needed
that the allies and even the Hun
clearly recognize the part which the
president. as the leader of the allied
nations, is playing and will play in
the war.
Now for the boys over there. Mr..
Cobb figures that America need not
drape crepe on its front door be-
cause we have sent nearly mil
lion OF our lads across the sea. Ger
tainly, he says, we can have a little
heartache when we miss them COM
ing late to breakfast in the morning,
but he wishes to inform every one
that they are just as we'll as could
be expected.
Happy? Sure they are happy"
he said. They are fun OF that in
effable happiness which every man
feels when he is doing his job with
grin. Wait until they get into
the game. I'm not going TO say
they have more courage than the
fellows of France and England. The
supreme test of courage Is for a
man to face fire at the cost of his
life. We all know what the Eng
lish and French have done along
that line.
But our boys are fresh. They are
full OF life. They have that exuber-
ant Yankee spirit which means so
much I'M a Crisis, Wnicn you can ue'
scribe in words, but which you ad-
mire in action.
THE whole thing is joke to our
lads. They kid themselves when
they are weary of kidding the other
fellow. What is gold lace to them? =?
A joke. Suppose bacon or tobacco
is short for twenty-four hours
that's just anothsr joke.
Carry Humor to Battle Line.
The difference between the spirit
Of our men and the spirits of the
fighting men OF France and England
is that the American boys, as
stated, are fresh. They are younger
and have not gone through the most
terrible trials which could be visited
upon humanity. The men OF France
and England are war weary. They
are not tired of fighting. When
fighting is the thing to be done. they
fight like, heroes. But they are
weary of the crush and burden of
war, the seemingly never ending
hustle apd jostle OF the grim game
in which they are engaged. They
