World Outlook for March,
The Galior Exhibition has Just

most interesting on record in Cen
trail India.
Mrs> Wiser with her demonstra-
tions of fruit canning and vegetable
preservation, showing the people of
India cheap, sanitary and easy
way of saving food. was much more
popular than the nautch girl. The
Maharajah brought down the ladies
of the Palace to see and learn her
methods. AS he was merely a man
he could not go in under the CANOPY
which was kept strictly purdah. The
fruit and vegetables were grown in
the palace gardens, the Jars were
made in the state pottery, common
Indian cooking vessels were used and
the little common Indian portable
stoves gave the fire for cooking and
sterilization. A few days after Mrs.
Wiser had shown the RAMS and
Princesses how to can and put up
food the Maharajah sent them back
to demonstrate to Mrs. Wiser how
well they had learned their lessons.
He wanted to be sure they had got
1t right, as he will have to eat the
things they put up.

Ledque Not Essential

1t is a gross and palpable fallacy
to assert that unless a machinery
of universal peace be established
or q simulacrum thereof-the war
was a failure and it's sacrifices a
waste. Nothing can be further from
the truth. In the destruction of the
Teuton plan of world domination,
the war was a success. In the es-
of national liberty on
a new rock foundation, it was a
triumph. The power which threat
ened the peace and liberty of Europe
for forty years is broken. Practical
proof has been given with eternal
energy, that vaulting ambition and
all embracing greed do not and can
not pay in the modern world, that
they mean only desolation and sor-
row to the people guilty of them.
Is this outcome a failure? Is any
thing wasted that went toward win
ming these results? Is not the cause
of general and lasting peace more
advanced by such moral lessons than
by any mechanical device the human
intellect can contrive?-From the
New York Evening Sun.

MEMORIAL SHADE TREES

TN A letter to the Governors of
the States, Secretary Houston at
- Washington has recommended a
nationwide observance of Arbor
Day through the planting of trees
dedicated to soldiers who died dur
ing the war. He does not believe
there is better way to keep alive
the memory of those who have
fallen.
This is a splendid suggestion in
line with previous recommended
tions of the National Forestry AS
sociation, but it should go further.
We should not only perpetuate the
memory of those who have made
the supreme sacrifice by the plant
ing of trees; it should be the effort
of every community TO also plant
trees in memory of those soldiers
who have served their country and
survived the great war and Arbor
Day is the proper day for this OBJ
servance.
Again we are reminded that no
Shade Tree Commission has yet been
provided for Harrisburg and NAV
we not hope that the City Council
will Immediately authorize such a
commission before Arbor Day this
year.

Controlling Enemy After War

lFrom the Bache Review.l
1t is to be expected that the peace
conferees have in their possession a
copy of this military
tactical book of Germany. After the
peace terms are accepted and the
armies demobilized unless this COM
mercial war has not been provided
against in the peace terms, there
is nothing to prevent Germany, con-
quered, from carrying on some such
campaign as she had planned as
the master of the world, except pos
sibly lack of funds, the burden of
paying the indemnities, or the power
OF an alliance of nations to enforce
an economic boycott.
In view of what the Germans
would have done to conquered
world, would it not be fair for a
conquering world. through the peace
terms. to impose upon German in
dustrfes some such system of Allied
overseeing superintendents and resi-
dent agents for information pur-
poses, attached to every German in
dustry, as are outlined in the Her.
Zog book, and as would have been
placed in charge all over the world
by Germany if she had won?
Undoubtedly, control of Germany
must continue for many years, until
(and it would be perfectly proper)
she has paid up her indemnitfes to
the last cent. This would be simply
following out Germany's own course
of procedure in 1871, when she in
sisted upon keeping her troops on
French soil until the Cat the time)

made upon France, was paid Then,
Germany retained control only to
humiliate France, whom she had un-
justly attacked and robbed.

America in France

I France and Belgium sowed with
their blood the peace which is now
belng reaped. Magniticently did the
"GankS" set about their task. when.
on that wonderful Fourth of july,
suddenly, hurled through the dawn,
comes the cry Iusitania!'
| can think that somewhere beneath
the Atlantic the bodies of murdered
children sat up at that cry.
'Lusitania" the white-hot anger of
chtvalry was in it."
j, America is in France to act as
the revenge of God" For nearly
four years England had remained
tolerant, refraining from hate: but
when hospitals had been bombed.
and the women who came TO nurse
us slaughtered" the old tolerance
died. Germany then entered a new
phase or the war-the phase which
scared her doom. 1t had been Gre
ated oy her own persistent brutal
ity. We are not her com
rades; we never shall be again, so
long as race-memory lasts" And
now the note of triumph changes
from expectancy to realization. as
the allied armies sweep on after the
retreating Hun. Then, on September
1, the great day when the Canad-
lans broke the Hindenburg line.
Lieutenant Dawson was again
wounded. Very vividly does he de-
scribe the superb attack-but no
more vividly than he does his Jour
ney from the front to the hospital
journey made in company with
captured German officers, and which
served to demonstrate again for him
the fact that the German is incor-
rigible. He was born a boor and he
can never respond to courtesy.
Kindness and mercy are wasted on
him; he accepts them as his right.
and becomes domineering." And
this, which epitomizes the testimony
of practically all of those who have
come in contact with the Boche,
should not be forgotten now,
1t is to be wished that at this mo-
ment, when "camouf1aged pacifists"
and pro-Germans are using fine
phrases about generous treatment of
fallen foe, the last few pages
of this book could be thrust upon
the attention of every American
citizen. For magnanimity is indeed
an alluring word; it fiatters our ma
uonal vanity to regard ourselves as
actlng generously to the conquered.
But it is impossible to act generous
ly with IAN enemy who flies the flag
of true that he may stab you in the
back" 1t is not against q nation
or against any individual, but
against "a fortified vileness' that
the civilized world has been strug-
Cling; and this vileness is not les
sened one whit by an ostentatiously
changed form of government.

A Beldfed Admission
[From the Philadelphia Press1

[From the Philadelphia Pressl
At last even the Post Office De-
partment seems to appreciate the
fact that the country is UP in arms
against the quality of the postal SER
vice that is being given to the people.
A meeting of postmasters and postal
officials and representatives of busi-
for next month at Washington to
devise methods to improve the SER
vice. Why this has not been done
before, only Mr.. Burleson can an
swer. That there was dire need of
improvement has long been the ver-
dict of the whole nation. That there
has been general impairment of the
postal service is the unanimous
voice. That the trouble is not with
the employees, but with the men who
are managing the department, is the
universal opinion.
There is delay in the mail which
the country has not known before.
1t is delay that in many respects
lis without Justification. Even the
local mails have not been handled
expeditiously. Matters of import
ance7 have been delayed, and the
whole service has reached a con-
dition which needs q radical change.
1t was found necessary to take from
the Post Office Department the de-
livery of mail on the other side, and
turn ii over to the War Department,
In the first part of the war, very
frequently mails were six weeks
reaching those to whom they were
directed in Europe. 1t probably is
the first time in the history of the
Government that a service has been
taken away from the department
which has it in control under the
law and turned over to another de-
partment of the Government which
heretofore had nothing whatever to
do with il, because of failure to per-
form suitable service.
Having proven its inability to take
care of its own business, the Post
Office Department reached out to
take upon itself new and unneceS-
sary responsibilities. 1t took over
services with which it had never had
any experience in dealing. 1t seized
hold of the telegraph and the tele-
phone. Then it acquired possession
of the cables. The result has been
the natural and inevitable one. The
wire service of the country is fall
ing to the standard of the Burleson
postal service. Up to this time, COM
ment of the Post Office Department
have fallen upon deaf ears at Wash
ington. 1t is to be hoped that the
calling of this meeting means a
realization of conditions and facts,
and a genuine desire to bring about
improvement, late, it is true, but
better than never.
