WHAT Is PEACE2

The world talks of peace as though it
was already an accomplished fact, and that
the immediate future were not tinged with
the red clouds of war. But there is no peace
even now In the bigger things of war the
people have forgotten the smaller ones.
Aside from the chaos of Russia and the an
archy of Germany the war goes on, limited
only by the number of people engaged, and
with threats of its perpetuation unless ma
tons get all they demand without reference
to the rights of the world.
A Polish army has entered Prussia and
sought by force that which was its by right
Not willing to leave the question of an open
port to the peace conference, Poland re-
sorts to arms to take Danzig. A Ruthenian
army has attacked Lemberg, while Estho-
mans defend themselves against red army
from Russia, Sweden and Finland are at
swords points over the disposition of the
Aland islands. Czcho-Slavs are fighting boil
shevists in Russia, while American, British
and French troops are doing the same in
the Archangel region.
Serbia, once bled white by German pow
er, announces that if the Dalmatian coast
is given to Italy against the interests of the
Jugo-Slav nation just created Serbia will
fight the world in defense of its kindred
nationality. Bavaria, the backbone of Ger
man military tenacity, threatens to fight
unless the late petty kingdom is permitted
to exist in peace.
The dove of peace hovers over Versailles
while the war eagles fly over all Europe
east of the Rhine. Will those who sit at the
peace table be able to bring order and peace
out of the bitterness and turbulence of dis
satisfied and beI1igerent natonalities? Or
will the peace for which the world waits be
one which must be enforced by war? Will
the dominating nations, after providing for
their own security from the war, leave the
ores created out of the struggle to battle
among themselves? After ALL is peace not
a relative condition? Can it be brought to
all nations at all times and under all con-
ditions so that national and racial struggles
will cease and men will accept the good of
the whole world as the guide of all individ-
ual actions?

The Joys of Peace.
From Golfers Weekly.

How pleasant it is to go back to the little
ways of peace. One can idle an hour or two
away with a frivilous book and do it with
clear conscience. without substratum of
thought running through the mind that we
should be actively up and doing, engaged in
one of the innumerable ways of winning the
war. One can drift into a playhouse and
watch musical comedy's mild ambIings and
light tunes without feeling that perhaps it
is not just the thing to do in days of dark
ness and sorrow, The lights-the bright,
white, reassuring lights-are here again be-
fore the theater, telling us that fuel econo-
my is no longer imperative, that evenings
after full days labor can again be spent
idly and luxuriOusly. One can even invest
an idle dollar in box of chocolates because
one feels that sugar saving is no longer
quite so necessary. These, of course are
days of reaction. Soon we will return to
the sterner things. We will worry about the
league of nations and the freedom of the
seas; we will be precipitated into the prob
lens of reconstruction. But a little lull has
insidiOusly placed itself between the grave
days that are to come. And this little lull,
we find, is welcome and thing to be cher
ished

High-Priced Meat, Cheap Hogs.
Somebody Is Making killing" at the
Expense of South Georgia Producers.
From the Camilla Enterprise.

The disparity in the price of hogs on the
South Georgia market and the price of ba-
con in the stores is topic of general dis
cussion these days, and the more it is dis
cussed the greater the mystery. When the
farmer goes to sell his hogs he is told that
they are not worth as much as western hogs
because they are fattened on peanuts, but
when the town man goes to the store and
inquiries the price of peanut fed meat he
finds that there is none, but that all meat
is sold on basis of Chicago prices
The retail price of good white meat in
Camilla is 40c pound. The price of good
fat hogs weighing 1875 pounds and better is
12c a pound. Dry salt ribs can be bought
at wholesale for % 1ac, medium bellies at
&c. The price of good lard at wholesale
is from 29c to Sic. Lard substitute COM
pounds are 241ac
1t will be seen from the above prices
that the retail merchants of the city are not
getting more than fair profit, though 25
per cent is pretty wTde margin for retail
profit on meat. But it appears to the or
binary consumer when hogs are selling at
from &c to 12c on the foot that when it
gets back to the retail consumer it ought
not to cost more than 24c at retail
A certain large packer in its advertise
ments recently stated that the packers were
trying to serve the farmers as we'll as the
consumers as cheaply as possible, and that
on account of their scientific management
of the by-products of their plants the meat
could be sold back to the consumers at a
difference of about &c pound, if our mem
DRY serves us right. The writer must have
misunderstood the advertisement or he may
have been ignorant of the basis on which
the figures for the advertisement were
made, but looking at the advertisement and
then turning to the retailers and wholesal-
] ers for their meat prices one wonders why
peanut-fed meat, the kind that is sold to
| the packers in South Georgia, sells so high.
No person who read this particular ad-
vertisement in this section believed a line
! of it. When hogs in Camilla are sold for
! 8, 10, IL and IL cents, according to grade,
and the grocer is asking 4Oc a pound for
plain side meat it is enough to make one
skeptical
The packers and stock yards people claim
! that a peanut-fed hog is worth something
like &c pound less than western corn-fed
hog, but this does not explain the difference
between TIC in Chicago and 12c in South
Georgia. There is only one thing that will
convince the farmer and the consumer that
| he is getting square deal from the meat
packers, and that is for them to explain
what they do with the peanut-fed hogs and
their by-products, and to whom and at what
they are sold for. At least 90 per cent. of
| the hogs sold in South Georgia are fed on
peanuts and apparently the packers have no
trouble in finding a market for the meat.
for they buy thousands of tons of this class
, of hogs each year.

HIGHER RATES IN PROSPECT.

Announcement from Washington that
deficit of S25O,000,0OO may be expected in
the operation of railways this year and that
important increases in freight and passen-
ger rates are contemplated is disquieting.
A few weeks ago Mr.. MGAdoo thought there
might be some reductions, but it seems that
he was not aware of the figures which have
Just been computed. The so-caled revolving
fund of $5O0,OO0,OOO has been exhausted,
and unless congress grants more the rail-
way systems will be unable to pay their
bills.
1t was supposed, says the Philadelphia In
quirer, ''that practically all of the increases
in cost of operation had been reached last
year, but we are informed that this is not
the case More demands have been made
which must be met in some way. Operating
revenues are decreasing, in spite of the
fact that the gross for the Last six months
was $4,000, 100000 and for the fiscal year
is expected to reach twice that amount. We
seem to be proceeding in vicious circle by
raising costs of transportation to the public,
and then increasing expenses to greater de-
gree"
No one knows where this is to end. Some
thing should be done-anything is better
than to let things drift as they are

A CLEANER DAWSON.

fine spirit of cooperation is being
shown by the public in the movement for
a cleaner Dawson. The attitude even of
those who were recently fined for disre-
garding sanitary measures is admirable. To
the. reporter one of the well-known mer-
chants who had to "come across" volunteer
ed the statement that the enforcement of the
sanitary measures was vital to the city's
best interests, and he was glad to be called
to account for his carelessness in the mat
ter of allowing trash to accumulate about
his place of business. The people are al
most solidly behind Mayor McNulty in his
vigorous campaign for "the spotless town"

THE VAMPIRE

The vampire may be good drawer for
the moving pictures, but we venture the
guess that she would be a poor sort of a
mother, and that she could get hardly a
passing grade as breadmaker, or that she
would gladly fit out of bed at the first pipe
of the lark and buckle into household du-
ties Of course, the vampire is all right in
light and shadow on a screen when it comes
to lifting the hair of the spectators. but on
ironing day it is safe to say she would not
be so regally splendid. Things run that way
in this strange world. The magnificent fe-
male reduced to common everyday life is
apt to prove a magnificent failure, while the
little old mothers of the cross of toll keep
the world alive and its wheels in motion.
Cleopatra may have been a queenly witch
when it came to pulling the wool over the
eyes of Anthony and Caesar, but she was a
failure at putting up things for winter, or
getting the youngsters ready for school.
Some are born under flashing, kissing me-
teors, while others-and God is thanked for
them-enter this vale of time beneath quiet
stars that clearly point to the fireside. The
latter, it is believed, are still in the major
ity May they ever so remain should be
humanity's prayer.

The Gentle Art of Kissing.
From the Fountain Inn Is. c. Tribune.

Kissing is pleasure, a habit, an ecstacy,
duty, sin, crime, depending altogether
on the circumstances or the point of view.
kissing baby is about the sweetest kiss
ing on earth, but it's mighty hard on the
baby-he gets such lot of it. Pretty girls
kiss him; old bachelors kiss him-everybody
does it. If he were big enough to assert
himself he wouldn't stand for it-not all of
it, anyway. But, then, if he were bigger
perhaps no one would care to kiss him.
Kissing a girl whose lips are like warm
velvet and whose cheeks are as soft as a
doves breast would be about the niftiest
kissing except for the fact that no one gets
to kiss that kind of girl except raw, half
grown boys who haven't learned how to
kiss.
Kissing ones wife is about as near per-
feet enjoyment as a mere mortal need hope
to get; but it's custom not generally fol-
lowed. Some men never kiss their wives;
and, OF course, some naughty men kiss 9TH
er mems wives. The man who doesn't kiss
his wife at least ten times day doesn't de-
serve her. The woman who doesn't want to
be kissed at least ten times a day doesn't
deserve a husband And vet if the old man
keeps quid of tobacco in his jaw the wife
who stands for ten kisses a day deserves a
halo and a cushioned seat along with Job
in the New Jerusalem.
There are many ways to kiss. A baby
merely opens its mouth and slobhers. A coy
maiden closes her eyes and lips tight and
lets things drift. An old maid ties her lips
into a hard knot and pecks at the victim
like woOdpecker An old bachelor Fuckers
up his mouth and smacks like an exhaust
of steam engine Wives-real wives-kiss
like the lingering clasp of hands between
men friends who know how to love- And
mothers? All, the kiss of mother is like
the soft beating of angels wings-like the
soothing notes of some celestial harp tink-
ling through the twilight.

SOME ANTLWAR TREATIES

On the gathering of the peace congress,
one of the duties of which is the develop
ment of principles to prevent war as far as
this can be accomplished, it is well to recall
the fact that there is now tentative league
of nations bound together by treaties, the
provisions of which seek to reduce the pos
sibilities of war through lapse of time until
national passions cool and by means of jul
dicial inquiry and acceptance of judicial
DEGREES. On September Is, 1914, William
Jennings Bryan, then secretary of state, on
behalf of the United States signed treaties.
which have been ratified by the senate, with
Great Britain, France, Spain and China in

The high contracting parties have

of every nature whatsoever, to the set
tlement of which previous arbitration
treaties or agreements do not apply in
their terms, or are not applied in fact,
shall, when diplomatic methods of ad-
justment have failed, be referred for in
vestigation and report to a permanent
international commission
Treaties of like import and similar
wording have been signed since that time by
representatives of twenty-three other ma
tions, including Italy, Switzerland, Norway,
Denmark and Portugal. These treaties are
in effect at this time, and if lived up to
would prevent war among the contracting
governments except after all methods of
physical force have been exhausted
