WE LOVE THE LADIES

We love the ladies, God bless them,
bat so long as they insist on pulling
the colored sister along with them on
an equal footing we are, like Park
Trammell, compelled to oppose their
having equal suffrage. The following
is a bill which our state legislature
will have to pass on, and that it will
be killed there is little doubt:
"a bill to be entitled an act granting
equal suffrage in primary elections to
women of Florida, and in relation to
qualifications, registration privileges
Of voting and the canvass and return
thereof. Be it enacted by the legisla-
ture of the state of Florida:
"Section' I. That on and after the
passage and approval of this act every
person Of the age of 81 years and up
wards, that ct the time of registration

and that shall have resided and had
his or her habitation, domicile, home
and place Of permanent abode in Flor
ida for one year, and in the county for
SIX months shall in such county be
deemed qualified elector at all gem
eral and special primary elections held
for the purpose of nominating United
States senators, members of the con-
gross Of the United States, state,
county, municipal, district and sub
district officers and for the nomination
Of candidates to become delegates to

trict ard spbdistrict conventions or

RIGID DISCIPLINE
OF AMERICAN FORCES
IN GERMANY

Berlin, Mar. 18.-(Co,respondencc
Of The Associated Press -Belated
announcement of Americas action last
December IN abolishing restrictions
apon movements Of enemy aliens in
the United States is published in the
morning papers. The delay is under
STOOD 70 be due to the fact that the
German government has only just
been informed Of the action.
While the news, according to q semi
official announcement, now is publish
I'd to reassure relatives and friends
Of Germans in America, it undoubted-
~ IS intended to contribute to the very
general feeling among the Gas,aar
people that the United States is treat
ing the conquered ene-ny as fairly and
considerably as possible. 1t also is
likely to increase the realization even
among classes of which Count Revent-
low is an exponent that Germany must
rely upon the services of America as
an advocate to obtain what she con-
siders just and reasonable terms of
peace and eventual restoration to a
place in the family of nations.
Germans of all classes constantly
comment upon the courteous and con-
siderate behavior of officers and SOL
0iers of the American army of occu-
patton. Writing personal letters and
communications from the American
zone of occupation, they never fail to
emphasize this. Though disappointed
at the delay in sending food and the
amount of it eventually granted, the
American soldier or civilian in Ger
many everywhere is received as an
honored guest. The hatred and abuse
which was vented upon Americans be-
fore Americas entry into the war has
been replaced by an almost officious
friendliness.
The correspondent of the Tageblatt,
who has just visited Coblenz and the
American zone comments on the>rig-
orous discipline imposed upon Ameri-
can officers and soldiers to obviate the
possibility of annoyance to women and
to the civil population and upon the
absence of chauvinism, theatrical dis
plays of triumps or unnecessary inter
ference with the German civil author
tiles.
The correspondents chief criticism
of the Americans is based upon the
strictness with which orders are en-
forced against the exchange of gifts,
food or cigarettes between Americans
and Germans. He says that % of the
66 sentences imposed upon Germans
by the American court in Coblenz in
January were for unauthorized pos
session of American property" arising
from the enforcement of this order.
He tells of the case or one American
officer who was cashiered "merely for
putting his arm around a waitress in
a cafe"
The evening leader. (Tarpon Springs, Fla.) 191?-19??, 1919-04-15

Suppose our men who ale now serv-
ing in the army of occupation should
throw down their arms and refuse to
serve longer, what would happen?
don't you think that people at home
enjoying the comforts of life who re-
fuse to work in the Victory Loan cam
paign, or buy bonds when thy can,
and desert our million or more men
In the army and navy still on duty I'M
til peace is an assured fact, are worse
than the man who deserts his military
post? Many Of these men have been
through the hardest kind of fighting
and endured untold hardships and are
worn out with longing for home ard
comforts. We make no sacrifice which
is really worth mentioning in compari-
son. If the American people fail in
their support before the last man is
locked and returned to his home, what
should they think of us?

THE CHRIST CHILD

Across the snow the home lights glow
From the myriad hearts alight,
And through the streGt with noiseless
feet
The Christ-ehild walks tonight.
At silent gates, outside He waits.
To find fitting spot.
Be thine the shame, If through thy
blame
The Christ-child enters not.
Where joyous notes from children's
threats
The old glad song begin,
Where love impels and kindness dwells,
The Christ-child enters in.
Where hate has room, pride sits In
gloom,
And wrong invokeS unrest,
Though green the walls and bright the
halls,
He cannot be a guest
But where the thought that angels
brought
no earth's enraptured ears
Good will to men and peace, again
The Christ-chid, listening, hears.
gIe turns His feet with welcome sweet,
Enters, and there abides.
Angels know best how such are blest
Through all the Christmastides
