very little to do in the winter time,
wish 1t were spring" And then
he hoped over to the Old Mill Pond.
The ice was smooth and shiny, Just
as shiny as the plate glass window
in the three and one cent store, so
the little rabbit opened his knapsack
and took out hs skates, and then off
he went over the pond as gracefully
as Hans Brinker on his silver skates.
And when the little rabbit reached
the old mill, he looked inside to see
IL there was any corn left, because
he was little hungry, for rabbits
are always hungry, believe, just
like little boys and girls:
But / guess the Miller's Boy had
swept up everything, for there was
nothing on the floor but an old iron
nail. So the little rabbit hoped
away and by and by he came to the
woody hill where Daddy Fox had his
home. Now don't get worried, for
that dreadful old fox WAS away on a
visit and so was Mrs. Fox. Only SLY
Boots and Bushy Tail. their two little
sons were at home and Billy Bunny
wasn't afraid of them. oh my. no!
They were too young to know much
about hunting, and Billy Bunny
knew too much to be caught by a
baby fox. let me tell you.
"Ielloa," said the little rabbit,
when the two little foxes looked out
of their den. Where is Daddy
Fox?"
"He's not home" said SLY Boots.
"How's Nanny Fox?" asked Billy
Bunny, But what Bushy Tail an
swered you must wait to hear in the
next story.

THE KAIsER's CASE.

The culpabilIty of the ex-kaiser for
the horrors of the world war con-
tinues to be discussed among all peo-
pie, not In the bloodthirst Of re-
venge, but in the sober thought OF
men who desire a just punishment
for thoe responsible for so much
desolation and misery. That the ex-
kaiser and his advisers, who have
been proved beyond all question the
deliberate planners Of the war shall
go scot free, seems to be by common
consent unthinkable, and that VIII
liam HohenZollern can be extradict-
ed, or IL need be forcibly taken from
Holland for trial appears to be borne
out by law and precedent. In fact
the Austrian republic will bring to
trial those leaders OF her people most
closely identified with events leading
up to the war.
In this connection reference is
made to the opinion given by Vattel
the great French authority on the
laws of nations and the first codifler
Of the right and duties OF nations,
who wrote before the French revolu-
ton. and who in his chapter on
Unjust War" covers the case Of
the ex-kaiser as though Vattel was
contemporary judge. as his remarks
could marvelously we'll be applied to
the case in point. He says:
Whoever takes arms without a
lawful cause can absolutely have no
kind of right. all the host!lities he
commits are unjust.
He is chargeable with all the evils,
all the horrors of all the effusion of
blood, the desolation of families, the
rapine, the violences. the ravages, the
burnings, are his works and his
crimes. He is guilty toward the en-
emy of attacking, depressing, mas
sacring them, without cause; guilty
towards his people of drawing them
into acts OF injustice, exposing their
lives without necessity, without rea-
son, towards that part Of his sub
jects whom the war ruins, or who
are great sufferers by it, of losing
their lives, their fortune or their
health. Lastly, he is guilty towards
all mankind of disturbing their quiet
and setting a pernicious example.
But how can he repair so many
injuries? The princes personal
wealth will not answer the demand;
shall he give away that Of his sub
jects, which does not belong to him?
Shall he sacrifice the net lands, a
part of the state? But the state is
not his patrimony. He cannot dis
pose OF it at will. 1t Is a strange
kind Of justice to repair injuries at
the expense Of a third person; this
is no more than changing the object
of his injustice. The sovereign alone
is guilty"
American, British and present
French authorities concur in the view
that the ex-kaiser's offenses are not
only extraditable but punishable in
any criminal court in Christendom.

"EYEs 'FRONT.'"

With Thanksgiving came a sort
of apex to uneasy times. For over
four years the world has been upset
by the great war, and for a year
and half this country has been un-
der high pressure through partici-
patton In that cataclysrn. But cares
OF that period are now a thing of
1.-THE past and, while there is yet much
! to do before we can fully return
TO pre-war activities, there seems to
be a healthy disposition to enter into
plans for going forward" in all
! lines OF development.
Aside from the problems of recon
gtruction our minds are clarified for
the tasks locally and nationally. and
already many development projects,
abandoned because Of wars necessi-
ties, vii now be taken up where left
OFF, and we can confidently expect
that next spring will see Fargo re-
new her building activities and con-
tinue in the steady, substantial
growth that has made her name the
synonym for progress and prosper
fly.
The war has brought the people
closer together. We have all learned
the lesson of interdependence
through our war activities. The
community spirit is stronger thah ever
and the signing of the peace protocol
next spring ought to bring with it a
greater spirit of accomplishment than
even known here before. The good
fortune OF Fargo in location, and
above all the sterling character Other
people, are two elements which mus
make for communal and individual,
success. so, having devoted ourselves
to Thanksgiving for the end of the
war and the nations brilliant par
ia bringing 1t about let all now &c
forward facing the future with con-
fidence and the will to succeed.

German AdmiraL
Not AWGre of
His Surrender
CBy Associated Press.) }

London, Thursday, Nov. 2S.-Ad-
miral Won Reuter-, commander of the
German fleet which surrendered to
the allies on Nov 81, has protested
against the order of Admiral Sir
David Beatty, of the British fleet,
directing that the German flag be
hauled down. He points out, accord
ing to an admiralty statement, that
internment in a British harbor is,
under the terms of the armistice,
equivalent to internment in neu-
tral port where, in accordance with
precedent, flags are allowed to re-
main hoisted. He adds:
'I esteem it unjustifiable and con-
trary to international custom to or
der the striking of the flag on, Ger
man ships. Moreover, in my opin-
ion, the order to strike the flag was
not in keeping with the idea OF chiv-
airy between the two honorable op-
ponents.'
Admiral Beatty, calling attention
to the fact that the armistice merely
suspended hostilities and that a
state of war still exists between
Germany and the allies, has replied:
Under the circumstances no enc
my vessel can be permitted to fly its
national ensign in British ports while
under custody"

King George expressed his great
pleasure in being in Paris. the capital
of the country with which he and his
people had shared the misfortunes as
we'll as the victories of war. He re-

Both nations, he added, had strug-

THE GLORIOUS HOME COMING.

Fifth avenue, New York, made his
toric by the many patriotic parades
OF the past year and half, is to be-
come even more the scene OF gala
events as the boys return from "over
there" For the time being the
name of the avenue has been chang
ed to the /"Avenue of States" be-
cause each state is to take,a block and
decorate 1t in honor OF the return
ing soldiers. Already about a third
OF the states, including South Da-
kota, have joined with the metro
polls in the scheme and from the
time when the first contingent Of
veterans march down the avenue un-
I'll all are back from overseas and
have paraded under the banners and
heard the welcoming shouts Of thou
sands of their grateful countrymen,
no spot in America will see such
euberance of joy.
There will be the first formal
greeting to the gallant men who
have carried our banner with SO
much honor. but with all its thun-
ders of welcome, no greeting it can
give will equal the outpourinR of
Joy when the boys reach their home
states and receive the blessings Of
their very own" Verify it will be a
tfriumphal march across the coun-
try as the men from the west speed
homeward from the point OF de-
barkation, for the victory has been
big enough and the glory so enfolds
us all that Others boys are our
boys" and we will speed on their
way those living beyond us as our
very own have been blessed in
transit by the red-blooded Americans
TO the east OF us. And to this end
arrangements should be made where
ny Fargo people should know when
the troop trains will come along, for
none viii be too busy to turn out
and give the brave fellows a word of
greeting as they hurry back to home
and dear ones.
And how different will be this
homecoming OF the Americans from
that of the Germans. With song
and arrogant heads held high the
mighty hosts OF the kaiser four years
ago tramped trough Belgium on the
way to Paris, gloating in a might
that could with impunity defy treaty
mandates and international de-
cency. Today, while the returning
soldiers of France, Britain, Italy,
Belgium and America, for the first
time are turning back, the German
hordes are going home to find they
know not what, embittered, but not
repentant, whipped and cowed, with
banners trailing in the dust.
The right has prevailed over
might and our sons and brothers and
fathers are coming back glorified by
the knowledge that theirs was the
most magnificent fight Of history,
tor they fought for no conquest Of
territory, but for the grand cause of
liberty for all the world. Not only
the dove of peace, but surely Gods
angels will lead them on the home
ward journey, while glad hosannas
ring through Heaven: Peace on
earth; good will to men"

Dandruffy Heads
Become Hairless

If you want plenty of thick, beau
tiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all
means get rid of dandruff, Tor it will
starve your hair and ruin it If you
don't.
II doesn't do much good to try
to brush or wash it out. The only
sure way to get rid of dandruff is to
dissolve it, then you destroy it en-
tirely. To do this, get about four
ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; ap-
ply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub
it in gently with the finger tips.
BY morning, most If not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications will
completely dissolve and entirely de-
stroy every single sign and trace
of it.
You will find. too. that all Itch
ine and digging of the scalp will
stop, and your hair will look and
feel a hundred times better. You
car get liquid arvon at any drug
store. It is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need, no mat
ter how much dandruff you have.
This simple remedy never fails.
