to think that getting a whipping

SO let us plan now for what comes
later, that we may enjoy life with
no fear of despotic oppression in the
future years. We must weld a steel

about, that will keep the PruSslan

Polish Working Girl Is
Flag Bearer For People

Philadelphia, oN.v l6.-To Pol
ish working girl, Miss Rose Sew :,
was given the honor OF upholding
the Polish banner when the Declara-
ton Of Independence OF the oppress-
ed races was signed and read recent
" at Independence Hall. There were
Polish soldiers and Polish men Of
affairs present in the group in the
historic building and all would have
been proud OF the privilege OF bear
ing the flag. But T. NJ. Helincky.
representing the National Polish De-
partment at Chicago felt that the
spirit of New Poland could be best
evidenced by selecting wage-earn-
er. and woman to carry the stand

During the signing, and later c"
during the demonstration outside in
independence Square Miss Szewc
held her place and the Polish White
Eagle swayed in the breeze. The
young woman is 4 stenographer who

NO AFTERNOON TEAS.

The food administration is insist
ing again, more pointedly than be-
lore. on the desirability OF abolish
ing superfluous meals.
With the return OF peace, it j.
natural enough that people accGs-
toned to afternoon teas and late
suppers should feel free to revert
TO those pleasant institutions. But
the time for that has not yet come.
The worlds need of food is more
serious than ever. This is particular
~ true in the case OF sugar, and
therefore there is special injunc-
ton against indulging in afternoon
teas because they usually involve
the consumption OF unnecessarily
large amounts OF sugar in the form
OF cake and Sweetmeats.
The reasons for abstaining from
the late supper are almost as strong
And in asking for this abstinence
the government is not imposing any
special hardships on our people. In
England and France no meals what
ever are served after 9:50 at night
and public eating places are closed
for definite period in the afternoon.
If they can do without the fourth
meal we can.
There is no intention of limiting
sociability. 1t is expected that social
gatherings at which refreshments
are deemed desirable shall be ar
ranged to fit in naturally with one 81
the three regular meals.

THE FOREIGN LEGION
By Adolphe E. Smylie
OF The Vieilantes

Hats off to the Foreign Legion
Your health, Sergt. Michael Nc
White!
We picked your name out at random
As a rhyme co-efficient for fight"
The papers tell us you are Irish,
A popular race in New York,
Where we have more sons of old
Ireland
Than there are in your County of
Cork
We have sneaking affection, Mike
For you and your prototype Pat,
Whose coattails we prefer to side
step
When it comes to the drop OF the
hat.
We know YOU Serbian record,
Sarge,
And have followed you up ever
since,
BY the stains on your musket and
sabre,
Your bloody. tell-tale finger prints
Death scoffers, with slines on your
coat SlceeNeS
Dedicated to beloved France;
The same sangfroid in your devil
may-care
Ancient order of thrilling ro-
nance
All hail to the bold Foreign Legion,
Their home any casual trench.
With their English, Irish, Egyptia"s
Moroccans. Poles, Belgians,
French:
Americans too-some immortal
In the death that the young hero
seeks
Brave Rockew and Seeger, the poet
And Whitmore and Kelly and
Weeks !
Thrice welcome. Scared men of the
Legion,
Who honor our country today
America reveres the uniform
OF the Legion d'Honneur four
rager!

REFORMED "REDS"

Many are the fruits OF victory. One
of them is the improved situation in
Russia. The bolsheyiki seem to be
reforming.
Those pleasant gentlemen had an
nounced great massacre to take
place Nov. 10. 1t was to be a sOct
of Russian St. Bartholomew. on a
vast scale. All the bourgeois or
mddle-claSs Russians, were to be
killed al one Swoop. Such, at least,
was the report.
Instead OF this bloody climax OF
bolshevik horrors. there came word
from Pctrograd on Nov. 10. that the
bolshevik had given amnesty to all
hostages and to nearly all political
prisoners.
1t was about this same time that
the bolshevik formally announced
their readiness to make peace with
the allies who had never so much as
taken official notice OF their absurd
declaration OF war.
The assurance OF allied victory
was enough TO wean those Red
traitors from their German sympa-
thes, though those sympathies were
literally paid for with German
money. The severity OF the German
armstice terms makes them still
more mild. They will soon be COO
ing like vertable doves Of peace.
That, however, will not save them
from a stern reckoning for their un-
speakable crimes.

MURDER TRIAL FOR
WILHELM

There is much speculation as to
what the fate Of the former German
kaiser will be. In all the allied coun-
tries there is feeling that he should
be tried and punished for his crimes,
if there is any way 10 do it. Some OF
our statesmen at Washington are
interesting themselves in the ques-
ton from legal standpoint.
No doubt a way can be found, il
the allied governments care enough
about it. Wilhelm is not necessarily
immune because he sought refuge
in a neutral country. Holland would
be glad OF any good preteXt to rid
herself OF him. lie is there now on
sufferance. lie might be eNtradited
to England or America to be tried
for a capital offenSe.
He already stands charged with
murder in England, as a result Of
the Lusitania sinking. which he or
dered or authorized. He is open %
similar charges for Zeppelin raids
and other atrocities committed in
England in defiance OF international
and British law There are sugges-
tions, too, that he be tried for piracy
on which charge good case might
easily be made out.
Ii would be an excellent thing TO
bring the naughty Hohenzollern 20
justice in some such way and punish
him like the ordinary mortal he is.
1t is time the whole world learned
that a ruler, whatever his title or
lineage, has no divine right to
commit crimes forbidden to other
men.
The severest penalty inflicted en-
this arch-criminal could not atone
for one millionth of the harm ht has
done al the pain and sorrow he has
inflicte e should like to see him
brough t, Nial in this country.

FORWARD, MARCH!

1t is Forward, march" for bust
ness now. The government has
eased its war restrictions. There are
no longer any 'non-essential indus
tries All those which have been
restricted are permitted at once to
increase their output so per cent OF
the amount Of curtailment. Soon that
limitation will be removed and bust
ness will be thrown wide open
again.
The automobile industry affords
a good example. Last summer it was
reduced 10 half its normal produc-
ton. Now it may operate at IS per
cent OF normal capacity. Next jan
uary, when the former ruling would
have shut off production altogether,
it may jump to 100 per cent.
Every business is being encour-
aged to get under way, with full
head OF STAN, just as rapidly as
conditions permit. The government
is cooperating to that end. War
production is not being stopped all
at once-that would be unwise, eco
nomically, even though it were wise
militarily. AS the output of warstuff
is curtailed, peace production will
take its place. The war department.
and the business mems war board

ter we'll in hand.
There is plenty OF work for every
body. There are plenty OF orders. old
and new. There is plenty OF credi;
for proper purposes. There need not
even be a temporary pause in our
prosperity. if business men keep coo,
and take advantage OF their oppoi-
tunities.

plished, We shall have larger vol

PLAY BALL!

oh JOY! Oh boy! Peace was de-
clared just in time to get the ball
teams together for the winter train
ing.
OF course, there were a lot OF
people who felt that any man who
told the ball players they must eithc-
work or fight had never seen good
game. but war is war;
Anyway, we can all agree now
that, next to seeing the soldiers
come home, watching the home
team parade around the field at the
opening game is certainly the great
est OF outdoor sports.

IN REMEMBRANCE

In these happy days when sounds
of gladnesS are heard everywhere,
let us turn aside Tor moment to
weep with those who weep. Death
has been in our midst and wish
ruthless hand has taken the strong
est and most promising Of our young
manhood and we. the members OF
the Presbyterian church, keenly feel
their loss. The old and the weak are
expected to die, but when the young
and vigorous are suddenly taken
away, we are stunned at such an
unexpected event. In this epidemic
of influenza we have lost three Of
our young men.
Walter Simpson grew up among
us from boyhood, we watched him
develop character by the gradual
but steady elimination of that which
retards, and the accumulation OF
that which helps to make the best
in man. He had reached the prime
Of manhood, was happy husband
and father; a good business man
who had the confidence and esteem
Of his associates and the warm
friendship and loyalty OF his en-
ployes. TO develop a competent,
useful man is the work of years, and
thus to lose one, is hard to bear
but we know that God has a wise
purpose in death or it would not be
sent equally to all. Walter has left
us. but the memory of his whole
souled, cheerful lie is with us. Our
sincerest sympathy is extended TO
those who are left to mourn.
Everett Cruce. Another young
husband and father, fell in the prime
of his strength. An efficient, compe
tent worker in his chosen field OF
labor. He was popular among his
associates and universally respected
and trusted for his ability and in
tegrity In the dark days when his
beloved wife was going through her
serious sickness, he spared no tine
nor means to bring about her re-
covery. 1t seemed as though his
rugged strength would insure him
many more years OF vigor and use
fulness. He will be greatly missed
by his bereaved family and we weep
with them in this time Of great trial

boys, born in Ardmore, a studer-
in our schools, boy known to all 0f

mother, father, and sister. in their
