MISPLACED MOURNING

Germany has entered upon a
week of mourning because of the
nature of the terms of peace that
have been handed TO her. This is
n little bit of dramatic action
designed to soften the hearts of
the allied governments, and to in
fluence them to speak more
softly to the criminal who delih-
erately and for his own gain
drenched the world in blood.
If Germany had desired to en-
ter into a period Of mourning
there were several occasions in
her very recent history when she
might have availed herself of the
privilege to her very great moral
and rs il proves-to her very
great material profit.
Where was her disposition 10
mourn when she entered upon her
great criminal enterprise II was
declared in the German papers
that crowds of people danced for
JOY in the streets when war was
declared.
Where was her spirit Of mourn
ing when she invaded Belgium
Her newspapers and the utter
ances Of her public men We're
filled with ribald abuse of the
Blgian people because they dii
not throw away their manhood
and allow Germany to do what
she would with them and their
country.
Where was her spirit Of mourn
ing when her soldiers were
hutchering the innocent civilians
of France and Belgium merely for
the purpose of striking terror in
rho hearts Of those two countries.
She filled the world wiia her
abominable lies regarding the al
tacks she claimed had been made
on her soldiers by those civilians.
Where was her spirit Of mourn
ing when she sunk the InSitania I
Professions of pride and thanks
giving for the commission OF that
dastardly crime Were held III
Cologne and other German cities.
Where was her spirit of mourn
ing when she murdered Captain
Fryatt, Edith Cavell shot M IN
defended ctes of no military i'm
portance, sunk hospital ships and
committed other enormitesg
Every one Of those things was
defended and applauded by the
German press and people.
There are tfrres for laughter
and times for mourning, but Ger
many does not seem to be able TO
select them with much tact or
with credit to herself. Her real
mourning is too late. Her presen,

tended, married us. The same one
who had christened me.
felt awfully solemn. I almost
broke down and cried. 1 had to swal-
low a lump in my throat every time
bfore I made the replies. And / am
sure no one a foot away could hear
when 1 promised to love and obey
Everett-yes, that was in the service
when I was married.
But 1t was over at last, and every
one was kissing me and calling me
Mrs. Graham" Then we had re-
freshments. Just chicken salad and
dainty sandwiches. cakes and coffee.
Afterward I changed into my blue
serge tailored suit. and the next thing
1 knew we were on the train. The
reason didn't realize anything much
until then was that was crying so
hard at leaving mother. dad, and the
boys, that I didn't know what hap
peEed.
DRY your eyes now," Everett said
as he helped me off with my hat and
then turned on the spigot for me-
We had the drawing room so no one
saw my red eyes-no one but Ever
EFT.
After had bathed my face we
talked a little, then it was dinner
time. 1 wanted awfully to go into
the dining car. I never had eaten
on the train. But when 1 timidly
suggested it. he paid no attention
but ordered it served in the drawing
room.
After dinner he was real nice and
kind, but he didn't say much about
, being happy because 1 belonged to
him. or about loving me. I hardly
spoke. 1 felt strangely embarrassed
thought perhaps he did also. AL
tho he shouldn't. He had been on a
wedding trip before, and 1 hadn't.
We went to a lovely hotel in New
York. 1 was perfectly delighted with
/ everything. Yet sometimes my pleas
ure was just a little spoiled because
Everett would correct me for show
ing my feelings too plainly; or be-
cause he In way ignored me.
One evening We remained in The
