MARSHALL REPRESENTS PRESIDENT

During the illness Of President
Wilson, Vice President Thomas E:R.
Marshall represents the president in
many matters. though he does, not
sign any documents which require the
signature of the president. nor does
he in any way trespass on the pre-
negatives of the president.
Recently Vice President Marshall
received King Albert and Queen Eliz-
abeth of Belgium when they arrived In
New York to visit the United States.
Mr.. Marshall received the distin-
guished visitors in the name of the
president of the United States.
This represents in general way
the sort of service he will continue to
do for the president until Mr.. Wilson
is able to return to his duties. For
the time being Vice President Marshall
is not scheduled to meet with. the
cabinet. The business of the general
executive departments, it is said, is in
excellent shape and the cabinet will

IRELAND. MUST WAIT a BIT.

Former President Taft well stat
ed. the American attitude toward
ireland when he said, in a New York
speech, in answer to question
whether the Peace Conference should
not grant Ireland self-determination
along with Poland:
seNo. ireland is not in the sphere
Of war.
.swe have sympathy a-plenty for
Ire1and's past sufferings, but the
question of what government she
shall have is a question for future
settlement. I don't think it is helpful
to the president or to the Peace Con-
ference to try to introduce at Paris
matters of internal and domestic
concern.
I'VE must do one thing at time
The job now is to bring peace TO tbs
nations which were at war with Ger
many and Austria in the sphere II
which the war took place
When the basic war settlemeas:
have been made and the foun&at;on:

JUSTICE FOR GERMANY.

The Peace Conference seems 10
be making rapid progress lately IN
determining the Allies policy toward
Germany, and that policy as announc-
ed is one in which the United States
will take profound satisfaction. There
has been. ali along. g fear that GER
MANY would be let off too easily. There
IS certainly no mildness, in such
8erms as these:
The German army to be perma-
nently reduced to 100000 men. raised

FOR long period of years. in ORDER
to prevent the training of many men

SANE CANNING.

Last year women were urged TO
can their surplus vegetables ana
fruits from the war gardens. A good
many extra cans of vegetables and
Jars of fruit and jams We're saved up
for the coming winter in that way
The chief purpose of the war gardens,
however, was not to supply material
for canning, but to increase the sup
ply of perishable foodstuffs for I'M
mediate home consumption, releasing
great quantities of canned and staple
goods for the war needs Of our
army and our allies.
The story is told Of one woman who
made a canning record but failed ut
terly to get the point Of the whole
movement. Her husband cultivated
an unusually fine back yard vegetable
garden. All through the summer
! there were crops Of fresh vegetables
