Who won the war? This is one Of
the questions that the peace confer
ence failed to answer.
President Wilson gave the American
answer In speech on board the
George Washington July 4.
Field Marshal gaig gave the Brit
lsh answer in an address In Newcas-
tie.
President Wilson said:
"Then America went In, and If 1t
had not been for America the war
would not have been won. My heart
swells with pride that l cannot ex-
press when l think OF the men who
crossed the seas from America TO fight

General Hnig said:

Ancient Chinese Poetry
as written Pictures"

Several translations OF sixteenth,
eighteenth and nineteenth century Chi
nese poems, which have just been
printed In an American magazine of
verse, will strike many casual read
ers as being very much like occiden-
tai vers llbre; and IL Is also notice
able. that these poems, widely apart
IN time, are very near together In
feeling and technical manner. The
Chinese poet, In fact, seems to have
anticipated by several centuries the
"latest thing" In Western verse ex-
preston. And perhaps this is really
the case. The Chinese term for such
poems is, literally translated. "writ-
ten pictures" which will also seem
to many modern readers good work

Fighting Heart Of lack
Dempsey is an Heirloom
From the Days of Feuds

Jack Dempsey, heavyweight cham
pion of the world, although born in
Manassa, Col, sprang from the purest
type of West Virginia mountaineer
stock. The champions grandfather
Ance Dempsey, was a pioneer settler
of Logan county.
The report widely circulated that
Dempsey was born near Williamson,
w. Va. is incorrect. 1t is slightly over
n quarter of century since ii. /.
Dempsey and the mother of the new
champion left their old home there.
Jack was born about year after mis-
parents arrived in the West
The old Dempsey homestead in the
mountains is located only short dis
tance from the abode of Devil" Ance
Hatfield, who gained widespread no.
toriety during the Hatfield-McCoy
feud.
Although there are still many close
relatives of the Dempsey family re-
siding in that vicinity, the present
champion has never visited them.
Both Dempsey's father and grand
father were farmers and woodsmen
and are remembered by old residents
there as fearless mountaineers who
stood high In community where
courage was demanded of all.
At the present time there are two
uncles and several cousins Of the
champion residing In Mingo county.

Human Will and Wages of Labor.

Self-confdent the modern has become in presence those cosmc energies before which his used to quail in terror no one has dared to claim ability to abolish or to alter single natural. But every day and almost every hour we are learning how utilize and control them.
 It certainly is presumptuous and even tenant to aviator "go against the laws of gravitation if it were the enactment of town council or a Womans club.
 Whatever other laws man has dared to challenge combat with his will, he has not had the temer- ity hitherto to defy those of the economic realm More invioable they have seemed than those of the Medes and Persians That one of demand and supply, for exampel Who would dare to dispute it's universal ity and invincibility?
 But now the labor leaders have flung down the gauntlet at the very feet of that inviolate ordain- ment! Instead of leaving it to operate freely they demanded that the descent be arrested at cer tain point, the point of 'the minimum wage" by the unaided power of the human will!
 It seems like standing before thermometer on clustering winter day and forbidding the mercury to fall below the freezing point.
 Hjalmer Branthing, the Swedish Socialist, has even dared to express the ambitious hope that the Peace Conference would establish minimum wage" for the entire world.
 But he acknowledges the limitations of the will of control the law that governs wages-'beyond a certain point!"
 'They cannot be standardized for the human race, . says because of the differing conditions in such nations those of America and Europe"
 Nor set them aside or control them abso- lutely here. However much we may long to have the present maintained, however much may dread to see the rewards the aborer drop below the line of and comfort, there are forces at work too powerful to be controlled by mans volition. He may standardize minimum, but not maximum wage! He may will and enact and ordain and command, but there conditions which he cannot possibly control as yet, at least The mercury will go down in the thermometer and the wages in the payroom in spite of the strongest and most intelligent efforts And yet, with the ever-increasing enlightenment of the human mind and through the growing comprehension of economic laws it is not unreasonable to hope that q more generous reward for effort be achieved and more enduring stability maintained.

Luke McLuke Says


 Some husbands are so henpecked that they would rather eat a bad egg for breakfast than take a chance on telling Friend Wife that she didn't know what she was doing when she bought the egg.
 Marriage is something that turns Perfect 36 into a Middle-Aged Spread and turns Golden Presses into plan Red Hair.
 A woman always means what she says when she says it. But she'll go right ahead and change her mind
 You cant fool a man into buying an oilless oil well or a goddess gold mine twice. But the durn fool will go and get married a second time.
 A well-trained husband is sup posed to spend one half the year emptying ashes and the other half emptying the pan under the ice box
 A highbrow announces that the vocabulary of the ordinary woman is about 600 words. Bpt any mar ried man can tell you that she uses the same 600 words a day 600 times
 Before they wed she thinks that he is marrying her because he needs her great inspiration. But a few years later she can tell you that he married her because he needed a cook, chambermaid and valet.
 It doesn't hurt to tell the truth once in a while. A big 200-pound man is just as scared of his 100 pound wife as little 100-pound man is of his big 200pound wife.
 And any time a wife trusts her husband with another woman the betting is that the other woman looks more like man than a wo man.
