ARID WEST VIRGINIA

West Virginian statesmen have
an ingenuity, a subtlety, and
humor that make limited Dryness
almost Bacchic. The Legislature
has passed a bill restricting to
rs gallons the wine that any one
person may make for himself in
a year. Much, little enough, too
much, twill serve. The same bill
makes it an offense for a nom
resident dealer in intoxicants to
sell any of them that he knows
are to be carried into West Vir-
ginia. How West Virginia is GO
ing to punish non-residents, how
she is to prove that the nom
resident vendor of sin knows
whittier it is to be directed who
knows?
The romantic charm of the
measure, however, is the pro-
vision giving State, county,
tand city officers authority to
nconfscate all aircraft used for
the purpose of transporting

THE CHANGING YEAR

How fast the world does move
in these times of change and
crises may be dimly sensed
through rejecting that year
ago to-day the German army at
its high tide of power had smash
ed the British line and was
plunging on to Amiens at a pace
that was terrifying the Allied
world. Paris was under lombard
ment. Territory gained by price
less blood and fearful sacrifice of
two hard fought years was be-
ing again taken by force of arms
against which il seemed no des-
perate effort of Briton or French
could possibly avail. The fore
boding that America had enter
ed the lists Of war too late was
prevalent everywhere.
To-day a saddler rules a Berlin
down whose streets armed mobs
wage guerilla warfare at least as
the Kaiser's once shining legions.
German power and prestige
seems to have gone into dis
astrous eclipse. In Amerongen
castle a frightened man with
shaven face and withered arm
has just celebrated the saving
of his thousandth log.
