the last great sacrifice was started by
Germany only to crafty the selfish
greed of a people who had been taught
that might is right.
I realized the tragic interest Of
America in these graves as I walked
over the hilltop at Guillimont farm,
near the village of Bony, and found
there two large cemeteries in which
American dead lie buried. realized
it anew as Gen. Henry Rawlinson.
commanding the Fourth British army,
recounted to me the incidents of that
battle in which American troops made
the first break in the Hindenburg line,
and when he told me of the wonderful
gallantry of those American boys, "the
most gallant troops that ever fought
on a battlefield"
Today more than 1000 of those gall
liant American boys are buried in sol
der graves on that battlefield, and lit
tie wooden crosses mark their resting
places.
Severe Lesson for Germany.
German money cannot pay for those
lives, but that spirit of greed, of wan
tonness, of selfish ambition, that pro-
duced the senseless, needless war in
which they died, must be crushed, and
it can be crushed only by making the
German pay, and pay, and pay, until
he has learned that might is not right
and that war for the purposes of con-
quest and domination is not profitable.
An American regiment, TO which /
had belonged some years ago, and in
which were enrolled many personal
friends, had fought on that field. As
| l walked beside the long rows of
wooden crosses, and knew that some
of them marked the resting places of
my friends, felt. as any other Ameri-
can would have felt under the same
conditions, that Germany must pay in
order that Germany should learn that
might is not right.
I am sure that every father, every
mother, every brother, every sister
every relative and friend OF those
! American boys who are buried on Eu-
| ropean battlefields viii feel that Ger.

the desolation she has caused through.
out the world.
There is on the Semme battlefields
not far from what once was the beau
tifuI little city of Peronne, s soldiers
cemetery in which British troops are
buried. On each little wooden cross
had been painted the name of the sol
der buried beneath it, as well as the
letter of his company and the number
of his battalion. In the onrush of the
Huns last March this cemetery was
taken, and the wanton cruelty of the
Boche is nowise better illustrated thar
by the fact that he went through that
cemetery and painted out the name;
of these British dead.
Should Pay to the Limit.
should the Boche not pay for sucl
dastardly work as that? Should hi
not pay for attempting to deprive tn,
relatives and friends of those British
soldiers of knowing their final resting

will not be successful? He must pa!

DISPUTE BETWEEN TWO POLISH
FACTIONS EMBARRASSES.
IN undertaking to place upon tho
program of business for tho inter
allied peace conference the subject
of plans for the protection of Poland
from the invasion Of the Bolshevil1i,
the supreme council finds itself en-
barrassed by the conflicting claims
for recognition Of the Polish national
committee in Paris, headed by r. V.
Dmowski. on the one hand, and the
present de facto government at War
saw under General Pilsudsl1i, On the
other.
The Warsaw government was the
creation Of the people in Poland,
themselves, while the Polish national
committee has been largely supported
by the Poles in America, and has
among it's members some OF tho most
eminent Polish leaders.
NJ Dmowski contends the Warsaw
government is not representative, be-
cause it inherits it's powers from the
Germans and is exclusively socialis-
tic and popularistic. General Pilsud
ski charges that the other party is
rcactionary, nntiJSemitic and unac
ceptablc to the people at large.
The French Government has refus

ment until it reaches all agreement
with the national committee. In or

The supreme council OF the peace
congress at yesterdays session took
up the question OF the procedure for

discussion dwclt largely upon tho

AMERICAN DELEGATION STILL
OF FIRST OPINION.
II appears from the DEVELOPMENTS
OF the supreme council yesterday no
statement from any of the represent
tativcS in Paris OF tho various govern
mcnts participating in the conference
has altered the determination of tho
American delegation to urge that the
league of nations should BIO one of
the first questions to be considered
by tho supreme council, and also to
insist that it have the first place on
the program submitted for the up
prevail OF tho inter allied conference.
1t, therefore, is considered probable
the suggestion that the question: DO
dealt with by special commission
will not appeal to the American dele
cation, unless it is clearly shown
there is no danger Of the subject
being sidetracked.
No decision has yet been rendered
regarding the status Of Japan in tho
preliminary proceedings. Thus far.
only the United States, Great Britain
France and Italy arc represented i'll
the council.
Reports that tho American dolega
ton has agreed on working plan
for league Of nations, and that it
will be one Of the first things to be
laid before the congress, have been
current III Paris. All outward evi
denccs in official quarters point in the
other direction. 1t is known that as
late as President Wilson'S return
from Italy he was not prepared to
lay down working plan, and That
he preferred to have other plans orig
mating among the entente delegates
offered first
1t was felt such q procedure, be-
sides having Il tactical advantage,
would show desirable Difference to
the European statesmen having plans
to submit.

BLOT ON WARRIORS FAME
Miltiades, Victor at Marathon, Victim
of Overdue Eagerness for Other
Military Successes.

Miltiades. the first great soldier of
Greece, is thought of by the world as
the heroic warrior who won the battle
of Marathon, B. c., 400. This battle
marked an important step toward the
ascendancy of Athens in Greece, and
Greece in the civilization of the world.
Besides superior numbers, the Persians
ut Marathon were supported by their
fleet, but Pats and Artaphernes, their
commanders, were foiled at every point
and their army defeated with great
slaughter by Miltiades. In his exalted
position, flushed with honor, he prom
ised the Athenians other victories.
Being granted ships and an expedition,
he proceeded against the island Of
Paros. which had helped Persia during
the war, and where he hoped to obtain
an abundance of gold. He failed in his
purpose there and was charged with
deceiying his countrymen, but died
from wounds received on the trip to
Paros before his fine of so talents was
paid. History places Miltiades as a
great hero of his time and not as one
who was SO inconsiderate in making q
foolish request, for the Athenians were
just as inconsiderate in granting such
request.

Peace and Righteousness.

Righteousness means victory with
the help of the Spirit Of God over our
selves, over our inclinations. our pas
sions. our tempers, our whole sinful
natures. There is no peace without
victory in the spiritual life. and am
inclined to think that holds good be-
tween men and nations. There is no
peace until righteousness is done. The
Prophet said: ''They have healed also
the hurt of my people slightly, saying
Peace. Peace. when there is no peace"
There must be righteousness toward
God and our fellowmen If there is to
be peace and good will on earth.

that her sisters cook had called her

home and cornered the cook. Not

piled:
II did say that, but, honey, don't let
it worry you. No woman is educated
until she's lived with a husband for six
months"
The temper of the teacher was not
improved by this assertion.
'Then you think husbands are an

piled. TITS this way: Have you ever
