MR.. CHERADAME'S
TEN POINTS
He Says There Can Be No En-
during Peace if They Are
Disregdrded

For more than twenty years Andre
Cheradame has been studying the Ger
man menace in Europe and for more
than fifteen years he has been writing
about It. His warnings, however. fell
on deaf ears until the war broke out.
Then It was discovered that he knew
what he was talking about. While the
war was in progress he wrote W or
three books repeating his warning and
calling attention to the fact that the Ger
man net was spread from Berlin to
Bagdad, and that German success
meant a German world. There was n
disposition in some quarters to regard
him as an alarmtst, but the working out
OF the German plans and the German
boast made his assertions seem
moderate. He has just written a book
on The Essentials of an Enduring
Peace" which ought tobe read by every
one who wishes to understand the perils
with which the Peace Conference Is con-
fronted. He reviews the skillful German
propaganda during recent years intended
to deceive the Entente Allies, and asserts
that that propaganda Is still going on.
He suggests that the armistice was
signed when II became evident TO the
Germans that a victory in the field was
impossible and hat an attempt Is nov
made to win a negotiated peace at the
council table which will give to GER
many substantially all that she hoped
to win under arms. In order to prevent
such a victory he law down the ten

must be based. Here they are:
Written acceptances by the Germans
and the foundation of the republic in
Germany should not modify in any
way the program of guarantees ana
realizations of all kinds demanded by
the Allies.
The Allies ought to be thoroughly
convinced that the German people is
just as responsible for the war as the
Kaiser himself.
Any negotiated peace should be
resolutely and absolutely rejected, as
it would make impossible a complete
victory for the Allies.
To understand realistically the con-
ditions of a program OF lasting peace;
To realize n concrete program or
peace conditions having for Its object:
First, to prevent a further outbreak or
the war; second, to repair as far as
possible the deep injuries caused by
German aggression.
To understand that the presence OF
Allied soldiers in Germany and
Austria Hungary is absolutely IN
dispensable to a thorough and per-
manent victory.
To admit that to enable the Germans
to repair the damage they have caused
they should not be placed under a gem
eral boycott.
To consider the league Of nations
from a realistic and not a utopian
standpoint.
To understand that the pacifists are
as dangerous to the establishment OF
a durable peace as the Pan-German-
lists.
Not to allow ourselves to be de-
ceived as to the character of the Boil
shevist danger.

validity.

VAR HAS ALSO A
SIDE
Mr.. Waldo Has Exhibited IL in
a Book That Has All the
Elements of Popularity

Fullerton l.. Waldo, we'll known in
this city, has written a war book which
has in 1t all the elements Of popularity.
He went to Europe last summer on a
transport, stopped in London for a while,
and then visited the whole battlefront
from the Vosges Mountains to FLANDERS
He does not talk of battles n cam
paigns, but he devotes his attention 10
the human side Of war. Nothing has
been written which shows better the
JOYOUS, ~jocular, care-free side or SOL
diering than his first chapter OF life on
the transport. Mr.. Waldo produces MS
effect by piling incident on incident n
joke on joke, and yet he does not fall TO
take account of the serious note that
every now and then made itself heard'
His description of the work OF the \.
NJ. c. A.. hut in London Is a STUDY IN
human kindness at work. It Is humor-
Gus with a humor that at times Is close
to tears and always escapes mawklsh
sentimentality. Every soldier and every
friend of n soldier will want to read
these two chapters, for they will recall
to the soldier pleasant experiences and
will reveal to the friends the kindly
solicltude with which the men In uni

side.
Mr.. Waldo was in Paris on Bastille
Day, and his description of the celebra-
ton is remarkable as much for what
it leaves out as for what 1t Includes
Here, as in the rest OF the book, he lays
emphasis on the human side. 1t was
not a gorgeous spectacle that he saw,
but a multitude OF people whose land
was in danger, %crowding the line of
march to pay their tribute of gratitude
to the men who were risking their lives
to repel the invader. What he writes
of the fighting line traverses the ground
that haa been covered from day to day
in the dispatches, but he manage to
make 1t all interesting with incident and
anecdote that reveal the heroism OF the
men and their apparent Inconsistencies
that they were doing anything except
what they ought to do. 1t is just the
kind of a war book which those have
been seeking who have wanted to. know
how their friends were standing the
strain under which they have been la
boring.

The Lighter Side Of Soldering

Mrs. Rinehart's delightfully."- humorous
tale of twenty-three and a half hours
leave of a soldier about to sail to France
is doubtless based on authentic informa-
ton about the lighter side of soldier
ing gained from direct contact with the
soldiers themselves. This does not mean
that the plot is based on actual events.
but that the point Of view Of the men
and the details of camp life are true.
It Is written around the adventurous
disposition of Sergeant Gray Of the
troop attached to the headquarters of a
general. In a m or %rashness the
sergeant bet hat he. would eat bran
mullins for breakfast with the general.
He wins his bet, and also the acquaint-
ance of a charming young woman and
brought about the arrest Of two German
spies. To tell how he did 1t would be
to tell the story. The pleasure of finding
out must be reserved for those who read
the book.

WONDER L
FOR ALL AGES
Mr.. Walker Has Produced a
Charming Combination Of Pic
lures and Fairy Tales

Dugald Stewart Walker, who has
been illustrating fairy stories with
POLITICALLY Imaginative drawings, has
developed the ability to make stories of
his own as imaginative and as poetic
as his illustrations. He has gathered
a lot of them in a book which he calls
Dream Boats,' that will please both
the children and the adults. The chill
dren will be delighted with the story and
the adults with the poetic telling, while
now and then a child will feel the beauty
of the tale itself.
Mr.. Walker has a whimsical magma
ton. as illustrated by the little essay on
Second Teeth He says that "Fauns
and fairies and fishes do not shed their
first teeth and so they cannot shed their
youth and Joy. Babies do shed their first
teeth because they know that second
teeth will come, and nearly always in
this distractlng adventure they make a
mistake and shed both their youth and
Joy. But now n then a baby will not
shed his youth and JOY until his second
teeth are firmly rooted. 1t is these de-
lightful creatures who can balance on
a fish's nose and pipe little songs that
are in the bubbles bursting in the foam"
This fantastic quality runs through
everything in the book from the slight
sketches to the longer and more formal
fairy stories such as THE Magic Dew
drop" which tells of a child with a
hump on his back that stayed there I'M
til some one looked into his eyes with
love, when he was transformed into a
beautiful youth. The book can be COM
mended to all lovers of wonder tales
whatever their age may be.
