WILSON AND THE SOLDIERS

1t was characteristic of President Wilson to
make his first formal statement of agreement
among the allied and American conferees as to
terms of peace in an address to the American
soldiers who took so large part in winning the
peace While there has been going through this
land an uneasy feeling that there might be radi-
cal differences brought to light at the peace
table, the statement comes with satisfactory re-
assurance that the ultimate settlement viii be
one we can accept gladly.
"A peoples peace is the Presidents descrip-
ton of what he has set his heart upon. No mas
tiers in peace as there have been no masters in
war, on the entente side, is his creed, in brief.
Reduced to such simple terms, it is remarkable
how closely the fourteen points of the original
draft adhere to that basic formula.
There seems no reason to doubt that the asso-
ciated powers will support sucii plan when the
formal conference opens. There are always the
means to be considered the instrumentalties
by which the goal is to be reached. In arriving
at decisions these there can not fail to be dis
agreements. The President says he finds no
fundamental departure in any official quarter
from the preliminary understanding. If any
one is in position to know, it is Woodrow VIII
son. His leadership thus far has not failed and
we would be unWise to encourage worry and dis
content now over stories that no doubt are un-
founded and idle. When there is real danger
of the peace plans going awry, should there
ever be such danger, Woodrow Wilson will be
the first to make the fact known.

FOCHS CLOTHES.

Marshal Foch has added to his fame by call
ing on President Wilson attired in "a well l-worn
blue Uniform and an old forage cap" Paris
seems to have been somewhat scandalized by this
lack of formality, and excuses it only on the
ground that Foch being general naturally has
his little eccentricities, and being also great
national benefactor must have them treated in
diligently"
As far as Americans are concerned, this par
ticular breach of etiquette serves to commend
Marshal Foch. 1t is so utterly different from all
that the ordinary American instinctively associ-
ates with military power. Here is the greatest
soldier in the world, commanding the largest
army ever assembled in history. And he appears
in GARD which scarcely distinguishes him from
his humblest soldier
It is not affectation, either. From all accounts
Foch is SO sincere democrat that he is uncon-
scious of such matters as dress. 1t does not even
jar him into self consciousness when the occasion
is one of formal greeting to the head of great,
friendly nation.
Gold lace and decorations and all the blazonry
Haunted by many military leaders are for auto
Gratis or pretenders. They are for kaisers not
for Fochs. With the great French commander
tie man is ali that counts. In his simplicity of
dress, which harmonizes with his simplicity of
conduct and speech, is seen his true greatness.

HINDY SPIT.S FIRE

General Hindenburg has announced to the
Berlin soldiers and workmen's government that
he will establish a new front inside the neutral
zone fixed by the armistice terms His intention
is to dig in there, six miles from the army Of
occupation and await the outcome Of the peace
negotiations.
The announcement is fraught with p0ssibil
ties, probably but it also has its ridiculous side
If Hindenburg has an idea that he can pull to-
gether the morale Of the German people by
brandishing again the defeated sword of the
military party he is badly mistaken. If he be-
lieves he could put up a front that will have any
effect on the outcome of the peace conferences,
he is again mistaken. The peace negotiations
will go on without the slightest regard for him
or for his army. Germany is at the mercy Of
the Allies if the kaiser's former leader makes
any hostile movement Within few days his
new front could be smashed beneath the attack
of armies now pouring into the occupied zone.
Before he could eall upon the scattered forces
of Germany 10 again enter the trenches the

NEVER TOO OLD TO ADVERTISE

There are now appearing in the newspapers
and magzines series of illustrated advertise
ments put out by well known mercantile house
that was established in 1928 They deal with
phases OF the cOmpanys business which are not
generally known to the purchasing public, snow
ing the method of collecting the raw material
the adventurous life of its agents, episodes ir
remote lands, etc., all of which are interesting
because they possess the charm of novelty
Reference is made to the matter here not
because such advertising is new, which, of course,
it is not but because this long established insti
tuition, lacking only five years of being two cen
turies old, feels that it is well worth while to keen
its name constantly before the public. New com
petitors are constantly rising and only by meet
ing changed conditions in the spirit of the day
can the old-timer hold his own.
This is point which should not be lost upon
any line of business Age carries with it no great
privilege in trade, but must hustle to keep the
place it has won. Advertising, well-managed, is
prodigious help nthis direction. If this famous
cid house, dating from 1928, before Washington
was born, finds printers ink essential to its pros
perlty how much more important must such an
aid be to the individual firm or corporation that
