ONLY ONE CONDITION

If Bulgaria is sincere and wants peace she has
only to read President Wilson's address made in
New York Saturday. In matchless logic, it sets
forth the only terms upon which the enemy can
hope to meet the allies.
The United States is not technically at war
with Bulgaria and President Wilson made no ref
erence in his address to the request for an armis
tice which according to press reports has been
granted upon the terms laid down by Great
Britain.
Bulgaria must first lay down its arms and next
she must forever renounce conquests under the
direction of the HUN. She must be ready to SUBJ
nit the entire question of the Balkan future to
League of Nations to be settled the basis of
justice so empathatically enunciated by Woodrow
Wilson.
If Bulgaria's action is merely feeler for Ger
many, the acid test of President Wilson's terms
should soon apply the remedy. There need be
only an honest application of those principles to
smoke out the HUN ruse if any exists.
The stage was well set for President Wilson's
address, News from across the sea was reassur-
ing and public confidence in the final outcome ran
high. This then was the inspiration of the hour
and the nation now has spread upon it's records
one of the greatest addresses ever delivered by
any chief executive, state document that mas
ures up to those of Lincoln and Washington.
OF course through all the uncertainties that
surround these overtures for peace, only one
ground is possible that of an open, just, clean de-
cision-- "a victorious peace
President Wilson has revived the idea of a
League of Nations at most suspicious moment.
He has lifted it from the realm of doubt and
clothed it with such attributes that none can mis-
understand. Under his Interpretation league of
nations must become an integral part of the peace
terms In no other way can peace be guaranteed
and the nation rid Of the HUN war lust

Minor Scales.

There are two forms of the minor
scale, viz, the melodic and harmonic!
The, former is simetimes called the
vocal minor scale, because it is easier
to sing than the harmonic. The latter
has an augmented second between the
sixth and seventh, degree. and this is
difficult to sing until one has acquired
certain degree Of proficiency. The
harmonic minor scale is more used In
instrumental than In vocal music.

HOW TO BUY NEWSPAPERS

When buying newspaper the new owner should
be on the safe side and announce to the public at
once where the money to make the purchase came
from and how far he remains under financial OBJ
legations to interests in the background If Ar
thur. Brisbane had done this many months ago
when he bought the Washington Times it would
not have been necessary for him to make the an
nouncement on Wednesday of last week that C. w.
Fiegenspan. Newark brewer, had loaned him sew
eral hundred thousands of dollars with which to
buy the paper. With the senate about to investi-
gate the propaganda and political activities of the
brewing interests, the Brisbane announcement was
doubtless "better late than never" yet the fact
remains that there's nothing so good as publicity
in season in these matters
Newspaper ownership should not be masked.
The recent German government control of the New
York Mail and now the exposure Of the brewery
interest in the Washington Times are regrettable
incidents calculated to impair public confidence in
the press. Contrasted with these cases the immed-
late public avowal that member Of the firm Of
J. P. Morgan & Co. had bought the New York
Evening Post was an admirable example of frank
ness and honesty-Springfield Republican.

himself with the forces opposed to the
appearance in New York of DR.. Karl
Muck, director of the Boston Symphony
Orchestra, has been an active figure IN
patriotic movements since the beginning
of the war. He was one of the strongest
supporters of the allied cause, it is said,
between the outbreak of the war and
Americas entry into it, and was particu-
larly prominent in the movement of pro-
test against the Belgian deportations IN
the winter of 1916. He was an advocate
of conscription long before that measure
was adopted. Since last December he
has been serving as voluntary chaplain
at Camp Upton. His term expired the
first week in March, but at the request of
Upton officers he is to continue at his
post in the cantonment.
DR.. Manning was born in England in
1866, but came to the United States when
a boy of ten, and is an American citizen.
In 1903 he came to New York as vicar
OF St. Agnes Chapel of Trinity Parish
in West Ninety-second Street. The fol-
lowing year he was elected assistant rec
tor, and upon the death of the Rev. DR..
Morgan Dix in 1908 he succeeded to the
rectorship of Trinity.

iislsc that you cannot supply the place of
the tralned farmer on the farm with the
clty-bred, inexperienced man. As I have
heretofore stated, I think nothing will con-
tribute more to the cause we are all 50
oeply interested in now as sending these
men back to the farm and permitting them
10 remain there until they shall make a
crop-produce the stuff necessary to clothe
ana feed the army which we now have and
the army yet to be organized. This seems
10 DC one of the most important questions
that has engaged the attention of this bodv
Tor some time. The Congress cannot afford
to make mistake in a matter of such far
reaching and vital concern. If you want to
strengthen the army and support our allies
there must be food and clothing for all.
and we cannot have food and clothing fo,
all unless the man power is supplied to
produce it, Talk is cheap and verbal pa
trlotism is all right unless it should mis-
lead us into some serious error of omis-
sion. But if this war is to be won it is

and bread, clothing and courage, prudent

chaotic, sometimes almost non-existent.
The company does not exaggerate when.
appealing for operators by placards in
the street cars, it assures young women
that work in the exchange is a genuine
patriotic service to ones country. The
streetcars, contrived with cruel in
genulty for close packing, are crowded
IN way that would do credit even to
New York's rush hour in the subway. The
express companies are distracted: goods
confided to them may be considered as
put in safe deposit rather than set in mo-
ton. The battle for food in the hotel
restaurants is bitter. The churches are
not absolutely congested yet, but they
admit to having been considerably "sped
up since the war began. Indeed, if proof
were needed of the extra works of right
eousness entailed by this new influx. it
need only be said that the usual vast, low

way station, and Mr.. Billy Sunday tried

If the impression has been given that
Washington now consists wholly of people
who came there last week to live, this is
exactly what is meant. The old Washing

of course, having let their houses advan-
tageously, have retired on a competence
and are gone altogether But though the
others are here still, they cannot in this
tumult successfully put forth any claim
to be aristocracy of the vieille roche, for
to have had residence in Washington as
far back as May, 1917, is quite enough to
give one this spring the feeling and char
acter Of an early settler.

famous 'floaters" of New York almost
sink into insignificance. Washington has
never been thought theatre town." But
this last winter, while the playhouses else
where have been sparsely patronized, those

profitably filled. The audiences are CO.'S

ever come when they "try it on the dog"
in New York before they risk the Wash
ingtonian verdict?
In other ways the capital has become
agreeably metropolitan. Just as soon as
she felt she could risk it Washington be-
gan to tear up the streets-quite in the
New York way. Inhabitants of that pro-
