since the defeat of the Turkish Forces

Christians in Syria since the middle

than village 1t is so small that it is not
mentioned on the ordinary maps of Missouri.
Yet out of it came a man who is world

half a dozen men who have led armies of
this nation to war. There was nothing bril-
liant about General Pershing as boy. He
was not above the average, except that he
had purpose in mind, and bent his energies
to its achievement.
The boy in the small town, the boy in the
village and the boy on the farm envy the
boys of the large cities because of their sup
posed opportunities. Yet, the cities have
produced but few men of commanding worth

Back to Work.
From the Omaha World-HeraId.

Let's go to work. Work hard, willingly,
faithfully, in our respective lots and callings
Work with a determination to make tomor-
row day of gladness, for ourselves and for
our loved ones, instead of day of dearth
and danger. Let US work to fill the future
with confidence instead of foreboding. And
while we are working let US open our hearts
to an appreciation of the other fellows prob
lens, the other fellows point of view, the
other fellows rights, the other fellows
troubles and sorrows and wrongs.
Let US realize that nobody's side of a dis
pute is the only side-that there is right and
wrong on both sides. And realizing this, let
US try to get together. Let US try to under
stand that when great elements of our peo-
pie are profoundly disconnected there must
be a reason for it, and that there must be
something of truth in that reason. So I'M
derstanding let us try, the while we work,
to remove that reason.
The American people are too great and
enlightened and righteous people to go
down in ruin fighting each other. They are
too wise and just people not to be able to
''make up" their differences on the basis of
the square DEAL
But the first remedy we need in the cure
of our ills is work-just plain, hard, old
fashioned work.

hold the pruning knives is to cut down the

running the government during the next fis-
cal year to four billion dollars. He predicts
a deficit next year unless this is done There

THE EXODUS FROM THE FARMS.

From the Columbus (Ohio) Dispatch
We hear great deal about improved con-
ditions upon the farm. The telephone, rural
free delivery, good roads, the automobile,
improved machinery and labor-saving de-
vces-these things all go to make life upon
the farm more attractive. High prices for
produce go to make farming more profitable.
Yet, in the face of all this the people are
leaving the farms and coming to the cities
in such numbers that shelter cannot be pro-
vided rapidly enough to keep the rain off
their backs. In the final day of reckoning
WELL we have no desire to indulge in pes
simism. But who is going to raise the food
for the people of the world if the exodus
from the farms continues?

OLD TIME WINTER DAYS.

Before life became strenuous effort to
beat all competition the winter days were
the season of delight in the home, especial
Nv in the farm home. Industry during the
open months made relaxation possible dur
ing the winter. Stock had to receive atten-
ton. and chores had to be done. But there
were no demands for all-day efforts in wealth
er which made contact with it uncomforta-
BILE and often a misery The roaring fire
in the old time chimney threw a spirit of
contentment over the home. Streaming
breakfasts of home cooked food provided
nourishment for the body. But these and the
other two meals of the day were not the
lone dependence of the people. A basket of
apples or a plate of roasted peanuts were at
hand for those whose appetites sagged from
one meal to the other. A pitcher of cider or
persimmon beer provided a refreshing bev-
erage.
The family read and thought and studied
through these winter days. The bodies were
built up physically to meet the demands
made upon them during the next work sea-
son, but the brain underwent a more vlgor-
Gus development for the future. Down at

batting club of the community, yet depicted
in dersion by the cartoonist, met and delib-
Grated. It's arguments were blended with the
smell of unroasted coffee, brown sugar and
axle grease. But the conclusions were clear
and unequivocal. Those days seem like pages
from a rare old book. The human family
has progressed, but in its progress it has lost
much of it's simplicity and all of its romance.
No one cares to return to those delightful
winter days. Yet, many who have not yet
crossed the "silvered line of life" recall those
days when life was less strenuous and more
enjoyable than it is now; when home meant
a place in which to live, and not place in
which to eat and sleep.

Passing the Buck.
Robert Small in Washington Post.

When President Wilson told the visiting
senators recently that the burden of re-
sponsbility for the treaty of peace and the
league of nations had been shifted to other
shoulders than his own and that he was con-
tented to let it rest there for the present
he merely repeated in formal language what
he had previously stated more picturesquely
to white house caller. At that time he said :
''Now that the senate has taken the infant
from my doorstep, let the senators feed it
and nurse it for a while"
The difficulty with this proposition is,
however, that the senators insist the Child
is not in need of food, but of a nice little
shroud. The senators are certain the treaty
is dead" but the corpse keeps rafting
about the senate chamber. Officially it is ly-
ing on the table. Many of the senators hop
ed the president would send for his "child"
the day the new session opened, but the pres
ident, notwithstanding the terrible reports as
to the infants condition, seems willing for
the time being to leave the poor waif right
there on the senate table to cast an accus-
ing eye at the wrecking crew and the bat

Int saws it will acquiesce of Terrell and some

Northern district, but a prompt and en-
phatic protest was registered, and the matter
was quickly dropped. We like our Albany
neighbors very much, but Terrell county IS
very well satisfied with the present situation,

does it care to be dragged into controver-
