Geography All Changed In
Europe and Must Now
Be Reclaimed.

The geography of Europe will
have to be unlearned and relearned
now that the articles of peace have
been signed. How many people
have known what Lithuania is,
where it is, who the Lithuanians
are, and what their. history has
been? Not many, and yet Lithuania
has had a dramatic, if a rather un-
chronicled. record.
Lithuania is the northernmost
barrier. between Russia and Ger
many, strategic position, which, if
it is independent, shuts the gate be-
tween East Prussia and Russia, and
if it is overwhelmed, opens the gate.
Lithuania is north of Poland with
a sea coast line of 100 miles on the
Baltic sea.
Lithuania has retained its national
characteristics in spite of hundreds
of years of attempted de-nationaliza-
ton by Germans, Poles, and Rus
slams SUCCESSFULLY. Edicts against
its language, its religion, its customs,
political repression and economic
tyranny have all failed to keep down
the little racial nation of 100000
people.
Lithuania's people are NEITHER
Teutonic or Slavic, but are a separ-
ate branch of the Indo- European

a single twist of his mouth, throw
the entire audience into laughter and
bursts of applause, she might have
felt pang of jealousy. Tor baby
swayed the audience as no movie
star could.
Nor was it the most beautiful
baby, or the most richly dressed,
that drew the most prize-winning
applause. One tiny infant spied a
small rocking chair on the stage,
squirmed from its mothers arms,
crawled into the chair and rocked
notwithstanding the GREATNESS att
dience completely. 1t received suf-
tlcient applause to win prize.
On one day the audience proved
itself very tickle by choosing Edgar
Milton Hylen and overlooking
Edgars twin sister. But sister
didn't mind, and was just as amiable
after her twin brother received his
prize as before.
Dorothy Byers, tiny daughter of
Sergt. H. H. Byers, 1920 Pinkney
street, overseas eight months with
the olst infantry, won the girls prize
on one day. Her soldier-father was

Babies-over 800 laughing, cooling,
dimpled, adorable bits of humanity
participated in the Rialto theater
baby contest held all last week.
The baby show was held under
the auspices of the Rialto theater
and the Brandeis stores. Two prizes
were awarded each day to the most
popular baby--one to boy and one
to girl.
Babies from one to six months
old held sway on Monday. On Tues
day the largest number of babies
of any day during the entire week
was present. They were from six
months to one year old. Wednes-
day babies from on to two years
and Thursday from to to three years
of age We'd for applause. Three to
four-year-old children entered the
contest Friday.
1t was difficult to tell whether
the audience or the babies enjoyed
the show most. Had Mary Pick
ford, darling of thousands of movie
fans, and showing in Daddy Long
Legs" at the Rialto last week, been
present in person to see baby. with

present to congratulate her.
Mothers generally accompanied
their babies to the stage, but on one
occasion several fathers marched
bravely up. They were greeted with
salvos of applause. On this oc-
casion the applause for two baby
boys was so near the same that two
prizes had to be awarded.
The babies from the South Side
won prizes, and four from the Vi
cinity of Pinkney street, in the north
part of the city, were picked as

prize winners by the audience, show

with popularity.
Yesterday all prize winning babies
assembled to compete for the grand
prize.
Frederick F. Pechac, jr., ? years

WHY didn't They Think About H.

From The Southwest American.
In view of the many complaints of
the people of the Central empires that
they cannot meet the requirements Of
the allies in the matter of Preparations,
one wonders why they did not think
about it when the war was being
waged. Here is late complaint from
a delegation of Germans that it will
enslave the whole empire to make
good the losses caused by their sub
marines. Why didn't they think about
enslavement when they were sinking
the ships?
1t was as certain as anything could
be that if Germany lost the war she
would have to replace every ship she
sank during the struggle. ton for
toni" That was the warning of Great
Britain to the Germans every time
there was a ship unlawfully sent to
the bottom. But the Germans needed
nothing; they went right ahead sink
ing ships illegally as if there were no
such thing as judgment day. A sim
pie minded child ought to have known
that there is in this old world such
thing as retributive justine
Little Norway alone lost more than
a million tons of shipping at the hands
of the Germans during the war, prac-
tically all of it destroyed contrary to
the usages of international law. Medi-
tating upon the figures, the Germans
cry out, eve can not replace it; it will
enslave uslp And yet these same peo-
pie had four years in which to think
about it. We could have more sympa-
thy for the people of the Central en-
pires if once during the war they had
manifested any evidence of humanity
or sympathy; or had stopped to think
about the consequences of their evil
deeds.
