tics has a great deal to do with
these matters. but they are the
things which the enemies of the
state-the Bolsheviki;ts and pro-
Teetons-eagerly seize upon in
order to serve their own ends.
Therefore, it is desirable to warn
all and to turn a deaf ear to gossip
and tittle-tattle directed against
our leaders during the war, against
such institutions as the Y. M. c.
A., whose splendid work outweighs
any small defects of organization
or individual laclles. and against
our sister nations who fought and
bled with us in the greatest of all
causes. Only by such an attitude
and a determination to be kindly
and forbearing to all F'save those
who have forfeited the right to
such treatment can we hope to in
sure peace and happiness both
within and without.-New York

A CAMPAIGN OF CALUMNY.

Now that the war is practically
over, our men are returning, the
nations are sitting down to peace
conference and we ourselves are
turning to thoughts Of domestic
affairs. it is disquieting 10 observe
that a campaign of calumny has
been started which promises to be-
come as virulent and dangerous
in its way as influenza and Bolshe-
yism are in theirs. Great organic
ations like the Y. M. c. A. are
being attacked. attempts are being
made to pit the armies and navies
of one nation against those of
another by the bestoWaf or with
drawal of credit, and some of our
greatest military leaders are being
discredited in manner which
points less to personal than to
political malice.
We know full we'll whence some
of these attacks emanate and wha,
is behind them. Germany, al
though she NAV be very busily
occupied settling with her own
revolutionists and in evading as
we'll as complying with the terms
of the armistice, and also in trying
to make trouble among the nations
represented at the peace confer
ence, is not too busy to give the
American continent a share of her
attentions. Moreover. she is rep
resented OIL this side by number
of persons who during the war
succeeded in evading the attentions
of the Department of Justice and
whoi posing as Americans. are still
doing their best to undermine the
AhS iuSoio anu PiihSiPalo Wy WulNh
this country is governed. These
persons are very busy now, sneak
ing back into society, Into clubs
into Journalism. and public resorts,
and are poisoning the public mind
by their carefully prepared State
ments and inuendoes.
The greatest harm is being done
among the returning soldiers, es-
peciaHy by making the most of any
personal grievance they may have
and seeking to prove that they are
due to deliberate disregard of their
interest by highly placed officers,
from the Commander in Chief
himself downward. Doubtless poll.

RUSSLA'S NEED
IS FOR ALLIED
INTERVENTION

VLADIVOSTOK, Feb. ia (Corre-
spondence of the Associated Press).-
The Russian nation follows with a
harsh feeling of bitterness all the eff
forts for creating league of nations
declares DR.. Vaclav Girsa, local mem
Der of the Czech National Council.
@If comprehends with difficulty how
the allied democracies can entertain
this noble but rather distant idea, and
at the same time look quietly on at
what is transpiring in Russia" con-
tinued DR.. Girsa.
Russia today is in need of assist
ance First of all she needs reorgan-
ization of her railroads. Neverthe-
less any form of assistance to Russia
is imaginable only in conjunction with
military expedition which would be
able to guarantee that the undertake
ing will not be destroyed by pernicious
rebellions and disorders which have
become chronic along the Siberian
railways.
ain order, however, that such mill
tary Intervention and economic assist
ance shall succeed, it is necessary to
carry it out according to a clearly de-
fined plan, that is to say, the removal
of the Bolshevik government from
Russia, the re-establishment and main
tenance of order and peace througho-
out the country up to the time when it
will be possible for the Russian people
TO constitute for themselves, freely
and without coercion, their desired
form of government. Such allied in
PREVENTION will be accepted with exul-
tation and with full confidence by all,
Notwithstanding its even more eff.
cient interfering with internal Rus
sian affairs
Adherence to the principle of non
interference with Russian internal af-
fairs, he said, prevented the allies
from supporting either the Siberian
government or the government of the
Ufa directorate because of lack of
assurance that either constitute gov
eminent having the confidence of the
nation Similarly, he pointed out,
neither of these governments, even
with the best programs they could
devise. were able to win the conf
dence of the nation because they
lacked the support of the allies. The
result is a deadlock and situation
affording fertile ground for new revo-
buttons calculated to strengthen Boil
shevism by driving into their ranks
the wavering left-socialism.

GERMANS SPRING HOME
STORY ON FRENCH BOYS

ATLANTA, Ga, March PA year
ago when the Sind division was in
training at Camp Gordon here an en-
terprising piano company wrote to d.
vision headquarters that it had built
a piano of such strength and lightness
that it could be carried into the first
line trenches to help while away the
hours on inactive sectors. Officers at
the camp made facetious remarks
about the instrument, one major
wllimsically suggesting organization
of the "3Oth trench piano battalion"
A local newspaper published a
humorous account of the incident,
picturing each husky private of the
S2nd goving over the top with a
trench piano" strapped to his back.
Powder puffs, rouge and lip sticks
might be added to the soldiers KNAPP
sack to make trench life more bear
able, the writer suggested. 1t caused
many laugh at the camp.
The 82nd soon went to France and
took part in some of the hardest fight
ing of the war. On August 2, 1918,
German aviators dropped into their
trenches in the Toul sector copies of
tho identical story with this solemn
comment attached:
What are you fighting for, Sammy?
While you are fighting and risking
your life, tho folk back home, instead
of backing you up with their last dol
lar and last drop of blood, ere spend
ing their time invent.ng trench pianos
and lick sticks instead of inventing
submarines and airp!anes."
Major Quimby Melton of the 82nd,
in letter to a friend here, says the
nen of the SIND fairly fought for the
German leaflets and had the heartiest
laugh of their overseas career. There
was nothing to show how a copy OF
the local papers story was trans
mitted to Germany.

TRIBUTE TO THE COW.

| Little does man realize the debt
he owes the cow. During the dark
ages of savagery and barbarism, we
find her early ancestors, natives OF
the old world. AS the bright rays OF
civilization penetrated the darkness
OF that early period, and man called
upon the COW. she came forth from
her selusion to share in the streets
that gave us greater nation and
a more enlightened people.
For two thousand years she has
been the co-partner OF man, shar-
ing alike his prosperity and adver-
sity, responding nobly to all that
was done for her, until through her
development she has become an idle
of the people. .
In 1893, when Columbus made
his second voyage to America. the
COW came with him, and from that
time to today she has been most
potent factor in making this, our
own country, one OF the greatest ma
tions.
Her sons helped till the soil OF
our ancestors, and slowly moved the
products of the farm to market.
They went with man into the dense
forests of the new world, helped to
clear them for homes, and made cul
tivation possible for the coming gen.
erations.
When the tide of immigration
turned westward, it was the OK that
hauled the belongings of the pion-
eer acros the planes and over the
great mountain ranges beyond.
The Cow Is mans greatest bene-
factor. Hail. wind. drought and
floods may come, destroy our crops
and Danish our hopes. but. from
what is left, the COW manufactures
the most nourishing and life sus-
tanning foods.
The Cow is life itself to thous-
ands OF little ones stranded upon the
hollow hearts and barren bosoms Of
modern womanhood.
We love her for her gentleness,
her beauty and her usefulness. Her
loyalty has never weakened-and If
misfortune overtake us when We be-
come bowed down with the weight
of years, we know that in the COW
we have friend that was never
known to falter. She pays the debt.
She saves the home.
