If Italy would make no better showing
fighting the world than she did fighting the
Huns then the good God be merciful
1t looks to us as if President Wilson will
get in jam if he does not get out of
Europe post haste
1t looks very much like that Mrs. Wells
will involve another bunch Of Seattle police
men in another big whiskey scandal Unless
Chief Warren begins to recruit his much de-
pleted force the city will soon be without
adequate police protection. We are still Of
the opinion that if the average colored man

Despite the fact the Y M G.. A. went with
our dOughbOys over there that they might
be ever mindful of pure Christianity yet the
Y. NJ. c. A. secretaries took 50 much of the
doughboys' dough that now those doughboys

on fellows and the people at the next cleo
ton will remove Wilson, Burleson and the
whole dam family.
1t might be well that the signing of the
peace treaty be not deferred too long lest
in the meantime the peace pact go to pieces.
If would-be flyers across the Atlantic
ocean will be forced to wait for favorable
wind and weather then flying to Europe
