THE DUTY OF THE HOUR.

We hope fervently that the events that are now TAX
ing place in Europe will not permit the people OF Lake
county-in its every city and town. on every farm and
cross road-to forget for a moment that they must put
their hands in their pockets and contribute within the
der boys abroad. These boys will not be home till next
year and perhaps longer and our duty to them is by no
means ended.
America, united in one vast, embracing organiza-
ton for the sole purpose of service to our fighting men
which will raise their morale and strengthen their arms
for a speedy victory of democracy, is the objective OF the
United War Work campaign. In a stirring appeal issued
from the United War Work campaign headquarters. DR..
Mott, who is chief executive of the Y. M. C. A. War Work
Courcil. has called upon all men and women who love
America to stand together and merge their strength for

ness with which the seven great war work organizations
at the request of President Wilson merged their drives

War Work Council Of the Y. NJ. G. A., War Work Council
of the Y. W. C. a., the National Catholic War Work
Council Of the Jewish Welfare Board, the War Camp
Community Service. the American Library Association
and the Salvation Army. With the endorsement of the
government they are seeking a combined fund to continue

lighting with our backs to the wall"
Germany has sent to us another note so full
of hypocrisy and transparent deceit that it seems
as If no citizen of America with the interests of
civilization nj heart could give 1t even a passing
thought. And yet there are many who are anxi-
GUS and wait with dread the outcome.
With four sons in the service / believe the
power is given me TO interpret the hearts OF
women. DO men know what we are suffering?
There is a knife thrust in the heart OF every
mother in America today. and yet have you heard
one word from any one mother that to assuage
her grief she would ask for an armistice or a
peace which would leave Germany unrepentant?
God forbid! Our crusader sons would shame to
own our motherhood were we to fall so lowi

to the market with my basket. It is a novel ex-
pertence. for il brings me in contact with all
classes of women. This morning | waited my
turn, for a little old lady had precedence. She
was ~pitifully poor; her hair had blown wildly
about her face. She was wrinkled and her eyes
were dull and her hands We're trembling. She
was one the crowd would pass and never see.
She talked to the marketman. / overheard, Il
got a letter today. Mike. and two postalcards
from Jimmie. All, that boyl He is a fighter,
Mike. He says he is a-runnin' them. And he is
in the front. But, Mike, I've been readin' in the
paper that they're talkin' of peace Then all
the age seemed TO fly from her eyes. A flush ran
TO the roots of her hair, the little trembling
hands clenched. 1t was the last flame of her life
that sprang into fire that moment. She took
Mikes arm. and l saw that she shook with a
deep emotion-"Oh, Mike, you don't think they
will be stoppin' Jimmie before he gets TO Ber-
linz"

meal. and went with a rushing spirit down to the
lonely beach where | could talk undisturbed with
my Great Companion.
A vast immensely was about me. A terrible
expanse of sea and boundless sky. I turned in
every direction. and it seemed to me that from
every zone ! could hear those unexpressed cries
of dauntless women-those who are old and
lonely and poor, who have no one to speak for
them. yet in whose souls there burns the divine
fire of courage which has always been given to
women TO posses. felt the spirit of their sacri-
fee, and / knew IL was a sacrifice which would
endure to the end of time. | gathered together
all of their silent tears, all of their mute prayers
for victory. all Of their heroism. all OF their
silences, which are greater than the deeds Of the
mighty. and | put them into a golden chalice
There by the lonely sea, in the immensely,
in the glory of a new day, l lifted my arms to
Heaven. and I cried aloud and my voice was
heard above the roar of waves. for those others
were with me, those who watch and wait and
pray for victory, those gathered with me, a vast
company of the unexpressed motherhood.

The United States Demands
an Unconditional Surrender.
THAT ARMIsTicE cANARo

That this newspaper unwittingly, and certainly to It's
iEtense chagrin. misled its readers because of its pre-
mature publication Of an armistice arrangement between
the allies and Germany is a matter to it Of utmost regret.
That it was imposed upon with hundreds Of other news
papers does not lessen that regret.
The Times has taken no small pride in the absolute
dependability of its foreign news since the Sarajevo as
sassination and by the vigilant and jealous exercise of
care in its news service has during the four years OF
strife acquired a prestige for reliability far more precious
TO It than gold, because the latter cannot buy confidence
of its clientele. Many times during the past few weeks
of volcanic diplomatic disturbance when Kingdoms have
fallen like tenpins, it has declined to be stampeded by
wild rumors. The fact that the United Press has always
been cautious in its service and ultra-conservative in its
reports from the theater Of war makes the regrettable
incident of Thursday easier to understand. The hun
dreds of newspapers using United Press banked on the
armistice cable because they had no reason to doubt it.
1t had been as much above suspicion as Caesars wife.
This paper even then proceeded with caution. The
stock ticker news, the first two wire flashes, the scream
ing factory sirens. the news that a hundred cities were
already celebrating were not convincing. The Times
awaited the second. and even the third verifcation. from
the United Press before reporting the news.
When the state department announced that the news
was not confrmable and that it was in ignorance of any
signatory pact among the warning powers. the Times
was on the street Immediately with that news and stop
ped plans for further celebration on the part of the
public.
We can offer an apology for neither q. S. N. Ad-
miral Wilson nor the United Press. The story was a
canard. The cables undoubtedly delayed the news
agency's explanation and qualification of its pointblank
statement that an armistice was signed. but that the
first news came from President Howard OF the new.
agency himself. and Simms, one of the most reputable
war writer's in Europe. makes it all the more inexcus-
able. The first cable should have said that Admiral
Wilson reported the signatories. An admiral in a sea
port town far from the scene Of negotiations is not in
falnbie. nor is a cracking wireless. and even a bare tit
is-reported that" would have saved the country from news
which though sent in the best Of faith and with laudably
ambitious motive. might have been disastrous. The first
thing that an editor pounds into the head of the tyro re
porter is that he must be sure of his facts, and certainly
the head Of the United Press should have been sure of
his in an international crisis when the world wants fact
instead of fiction. It was a laundering hoax.

THEY WON'T BE TOLERATED.

There is a rumor afoat to the effect that the Deutsche
Bank intends, after the war, to move its main foreign
financial headquarters from London to New York, the
design being to erect a fine building for It's housing in the
American city. In this way the Deutsche Bank directors,
doubtless. intend to rebuke London and to compliment
New York. But they would do well to feel their way very
carefully before tkaing decisive steps in this enterprise
1t is true that the government and people of the United
States were exceedingly careless about the planting OF
German Institutions on their territory before the war. but
recently they have been roofing most of these out, and,
unless they are as gullible as the Germans think them
even yet. they will keep them out. The temper OF the
United States is very deceptive If there is going TO be any
federation in the country hereafter of German establish
ments of any kind. German banks. German insurance
German manufacturing plants. and German
breweries must in the future, unless sentiment grearrJ
changes, find sites and opportunities elsewhere, says the
Christian Science Monitor, and those sentiments will be
pretty closely subscribed to all over this country. The
sooner Germans realize that the less trouble they viii
store up for themselves.
