Deep down uEdcr the beauty of it,

RICHLAND FARMER WAS
in THE WAR THREE YEARS
George Williams of Canadian En-
gineers, Returns to Look After
His Ranch

The writer has had an opportunity
to learn more Of the actual details OF
the great war first hand this week
than ever so far since its close. Geo.
A. Williams, who went thru the entire
war as a member of the Canadian en-
gineers is in Richland looking after
his fine little farm north of town and
to hear Mr.. Williams detail the ex-
periences he underwent thru three
years in the service is enough to
make one appreciate, if never before,
what our boys and the other allied
armies did for those whom they hold
dear. Mr.. Williams was engaged in
the building of trenches and went
thru all the worst battles of the war
and was gassed so badly that he has
been confined to the hospital for
months, many Of which his life was
so despaired of that he was allowed
diet only of milk.
In telling of the experiences he met
with Mr.. Williams stated that the
Canadian losses at times were ire
mendous; at one time the actual
count showed in one day, in one mile,
1850 casualties in the Canadian
forces alone. Mr.. Williams will be
in Richland for few days and the
entire community is taking advantage
of this fact to have him detail as much
as so modest a-hero will Of the actual
fighting thru which he has been.
We give below a copy of personal
letter which the injured members of
Mr.. Williams regiment received from
King George of England and which
he and every other man values more
than any other trophy secured in the
great war:

Whatever the docility, the conciliatory atti-
tude of our forced hosts, the boches, ! have
yet to hear that one of them has expressed
repentance for the horrors they loosed upon
the world. If they are sorry it is not in the
sense we commonly give to that word. The
war they seem to have taken as the natural,
the unavoidable thing. just part of life, as
the gambler takes gambling, with no other
regret than that it is his bad luck to lose Like
the gambler. 'they may be sorry they made
certain moves in the game; they may be sorry
they entered the game at ALL as the gambler
would be who knew in the end that his adver-
sary had more money on his hip than he had
given him credit for in the beginning. But it
is not regret for being a gambler Did not
Netzsche say that to regret, to repent, is
sign of weakness? Unless there is something

existence on the surface. the German is still

In one sense he is good loser" in that He
begins without waste of time or vain regrets to
hedge, to make up for his folly-or his bad luck
to bend all his efforts toward quick recuper-
alton But in the other sense, that in which the
term is used in clean sport, he is decidedly
bad loser. For he has none of the generosity
toward his victors, none of the forget it" atti-
tude which characterizes the sportsman of

Why These Crocodile Tears2

Here are two poor old Italian people
robbed of the savings of years of hard labor
as they were about to pay down for home.
In the evening of life they are obliged to
begin the hard climb toward independence all
over again. Responding to the various pleas
of its readers, this newspaper consented to
receive and acknowledge the free-wl offer
ings of generous citizens anxious to help
them out in their emergency. Why should
The Bee object?-World-H Herald.
O bosh The two poor old Italian people
were not robbed of the savings of years of hard
labor but the money they had was the excess
profits of a brisk bootlegging business they have
been VIGOROUSLY conducting. No one, certainly
not The Bee, objects to anyone contributing to
funds for the relief of worthy unfortunates, bull
it is one of the duties Of newspaper to expose
imposture and fraud and to prevent we'll in

Say9,ag Daylight n, Georgia

They are having bad time with the new
time under the daylight saving law down in
Georgia, according to Congressman Landlord
of that state. This is the way he explains it,
"We were in the central time zone and
were transferred to the eastern time zone and
advanced one hour, and then under the So
called daylight saving scheme we were ad-
vanced another hour.
$50 now noon comes at 10 o'clock in the
morning and 9 o'clock in the evening comes

Another Man of Straw.

Henry Morgenthau trots out another buga-
boo to brighten timid folks into accepting the
peace treaty without dotting an q" or crossing
It." He gives it as his view that unless the
League of Nations takes on form exactly as
outlined in the covenant, the German people
will fight again. Just what the league has to
do with this is not made clear in Mr.. Morgen,
thaus remarks. Students of history have
agreed since last November that Germany ex.
poets to fight again. Defeated. but not broken
the Hun retired from unequal combat to re.
cuperate and gather new strength. At the
Paris conference the fact was uppermost in the
minds of all that arrangements for the future
should be on a basis of encountering Germany
in the field again. Examination of the struc.
ture of the covenant must convince anybody
that it is designed with the end in view of pre-
senting such formidable aspect that Germany
will think twice before engaging again in ar
effort at world-conquest. But it was MOI
deemed sufficient, and the supplemental tri
partite agreement between the United States
England and France was reached. Germany
has not been invited to become a member o.
the league, and may never be. The possibility
Of coalition of central European powers to-
gether with Russia has not been dissipated by
any recent event, nor will it disappear when til,
League of Nations is erected. While these
things are 50 obvious, the Morgenthau man o.
straw may serve to deceive few, but thinking
Americans will realize that national safety ma,
still be found in the Roosevelt maxim, wall
softly, but carry a big stick"

THE SALVATION ARMY,

Present day reading might convey the i'm
preston that the Salvation Army is develop
ment of the world war. Boosters lay great
stress on the doughnut and pie service per-
formed in the front lines and otherwise extol
the war activities of the Army. As matter Of
fact, however great and timely its help to the
soldiers, the Salvation Army has done its most
wonderful work in peace times.
When everything is going well, the prosper
Gus are occupied with plans and devices OF their
own, forgetful of what goes on just outside the
little circle in which they move. Poverty. sin
and suffering are ever present, though, and
against these the cohorts of the Salvation Army
wage eternal war. Street corner meetings, with
bass drum and tambourine music, are but the
advertising features of the organization Its life
reaches deeper than this.
Men and women wearing the uniform of the
Army 60 into the lowest pits of degradation,
seeking to bring to clear light and pure air
again some bits of the human wreckage from
the bottom. The respondent man, the betrayed
and deserted girl, the down and outer" poor
devils without hope or energy, all are sought
out and helped by the Army. Into the Sums,
avoided by responsibility, its soldiers plunge,
lighted on their way by hope of helping
others Many of them have come from just
such conditions as they are trying to overcome,
and it is with unquenchabe zeal they seek ways
Of reaching those who are lost in dark places.
Soup, Soap and Salvation" its great war
cry from the first. still is sounded in advance Of
the Salvation Army's never ceasing contest
against the evil that turks where poverty con-
trolls. Its lassies won much fame on the fields
in France, but the luster OF that glory paes
alongside the splendor that is theirs because
of less spectacular but harder won triumphs
below the surface of things, where life is ele-
mental and the sordd struggle is not for gain
or power, but for something to eat

Sunday" Grocery Stores.

The ~mayor has instructed the chief of police
to again enforce the city ordinance that pro-
hibits the sale of meats or groceries on Sunday.
This goes back to the time when the Israeltes
were required to gather on the sixth day suf-
6cient of mama to carry them over to the first,
as none fell on the seventh day. 1t ignores the
more recent instance, in which Christ and His
disciples plucked and ate the ears Of corn on
the Sabbath to the intense horror of the super
good who looked on. AS a practical PROPOSE
ton in connection with modern housekeeping
it works decided hardship on many The Bee
has several times called attention to this fact
Not all householders are equipped to carry a
very large supply of food on hand, and it is a
decided convenience to be permitted to pur-
chase perishable articles from day to day as
they are consumed. To be sure the coming OF
cooler weather makes it easier to preserve food
at home, but this does not entirely remedy the
matter. Decent observance Of the Sabbath day
may be had without depriving considerable
part of the community of the privilege of buy
ing food as they may need it.
