WILSON'S SOLEMN FARCE.

Des Moines Capital: AS political
issue the league Of nations had a
strange experience. 1t began with
great popularity. People said. I'VE
ought to have a league OF nations"
But when they started to investigate,
to discover what was In the league
and covenant, they concluded that
we had better tend to our own bust
ness. President Wilson's appeals fell
on corresponding ears. His personal
appeals about vindicating American
promises were put down as selfish
Wilsonisms.
All the people are and were
anxious for peace. but they prefer
to place the matter in the hands of
more practical men than Wilson,
The Wilson treaty is dead, unless
Wilson accepts the Lodge amend
ments, and these amendments may
also be dead. President Wilson evil
IDENTITY thought that the league and
covenant could be put over ON purely
patriotic grounds, but he discovered
that a big argument Of patriotism
was to be found on the other side.
Every appeal for the league began

A CHANGE FOR THE BETTER.

Now that the women have demonstrated their
power as an integral part of the electorate, 1t
may occur to officials who are chosen to govern
municipalities that it behooves them to walk
in the straight and narrow path OF conduct II
they are not to feel the full force OF feminine
resentment at laxness in government. 1t must
be admitted that heretofore a city, the officials
of which assumed that they could go to lengths
because they we're ''good fellows and as
developed in all too many cases, could square
themselves, - was at the mercy Of class OF self
seeking men who paid scant heed to the voice
of conservatism. But now there is bound to be
change. Observation inclines to establish the
belief that the change will be for the better
In the coming years city officials will have to sit
tight; they will not be permitted to play under
hand politics: and doubtless the class Of men
who will be voted into Office will be OF char
actcr not inclined to give anything but the
cleanest government.

THE SUCCESSFUL NEGRO.

Down in Georgia lives David L. Howard,
seventy-one years old, a wealthy and highly re-
spected negro. He and his wife have just cele-
brated their golden wedding anniversary. This
aged negro was born slave. His former
master left him legacy of one hundred and
fifty dollars. By industry and frugality he built
himself up in a business in Atlanta and his
credit with the banks and business houses is
gilt-edged
On the occasion of his fftieth wedding ami
versary he gave very wholesome advice
to members Of his race. Among other things he
says that he never wasted his time; never
went in for wild oats; [ always attended to my
business Nor does he seek social equality
with whites. ''No ne-thinking negro wants
it, he said The chief source of racial unrest,
according to Howard, sis too many silk skirts
and too much good time
This is the quintessence of sound sense.
These principles and methods of living do honor
to the members of any race. That former
slave should be guided by precepts of clear, in
dustrious living is particularly creditable to
the man himself and to the race to which he be-
longs.
There are many negroes like David T. How
ard. Many of them have succeeded and COM

whom they come into contact They are de-

serving of great praise because they make
their way in the face of handicaps that the
white race does not have to meet.
ALBERT BAIRD CUMMINs.

The reelection of Albert Baird Cummins as
senator from Iowa is one of the things that all
should be thankful for and is rebuke to those
who sought by Misrepresentation to encompass
his defeat. Statements that white is black-that
the plain provisions of the Cummins- Esch rail-
road bill meant something that they patiently
did not-were based upon the assumption that
people are fools and not thinkers who know
what they want and want it when they want it.
Seldom in Iowa history has there been such a
vigorous battle of wrong waged against a sena-
torial candidate as waged against Senator
Cummins That he emerged a victor in the
struggle is tribute to his worth and demon
stration that majority of the people are al
ways on the side of right.

TODAY'S BIT OF VERSE
TIE ARCH.

THE ARCH.
Just where the street of the village ends,
Over the road oak-tree tall,
Curying in more than crescent, bends
with an arch like the gate of Moorish wall
Over across the river there
Looking under the arch sees
The sunshine slant through the distant air,
And the burn on the cliff and the tufted trees
Each day, hurryins through the town,
stop instant, early or late,
As cross the street, and glazing down
catch glimpse through the Moorish gate
Only moment here stand,
But look through that loop in the dusty air
Into far-of fairyland
Where all seems calm and kind, and fair.
So sometimes at the end of thought
Where with vexng doubt we've striven,
A sudden. sunny glimpse is caught
OF an open arch, and peaceful heaven.
Edward Rowland 81

to sound like an appeal for more
trouble. People looked across the
ocean to discover that the league
with twenty-six members and a long
list OF employees was doing nothing
to stop the fighting in Europe, They
concluded that the European coun-
tries were waiting for the Omitted
States to come in to take all the re-
sponsibility and to pay all the money.

ONE OF THE REASONS.

Twelve states of the "solid south had their
population underestimated by nearly three mil
lions when the draft law was put in force
Twelve northern states had their population
overestimated by over five and half millions
The draft thus took abroad, and was arranged
to take, a greater percentage OF northern than
Of southern boys. The south was in control Of
the administration ar. Baker was secretary
Of war.
Another interesting fact has come to light
Secretary Baker issued secret war department
orders which set aside the draft act as passed
by congress and allowed slackers, conscientious
DIRECTORS, communists and radicals Of every
known variety to evade military service. Under
this ruling any man-pro- German, pacihst, l.
w. w. or just the ordinary variety Of coward
who claimed to have personal scrupIes'
against fighting for the country was helped to
tevade the draft When Secretary Baker sent
his orders to this effect to the various camp
commanders he cautioned them impressively
that under no circumstances were his instruc-
tons to be given to the newspapers
The case against the secretary is complete.
He made it as easy as he could for radicals, boil
shevists, anarchists and other enemies of the
country and for pacifsts and so-called con-
iscientious DIRECTORS to stay at home when our
best blood went over the sea. But what else
could be expected Of hima In September, 1916
six months after his appointment as secretary,
he declared in public speech: ''You may
classify me as professional pacifst. I belong
to every peace society know of and it is my
contention that we ought to substitute reason
for force" A little later he made his dis
graceful speech in Jersey City when he said
that "Washingtons soldiers in the march to
Valley Forge stole everything they could lay
their hands on They stole the silver vessels
from the churches and melted them up to buy
drink They drove ministers of the gospel and
preachers out of their churches and out of the
country
At this time, as it will be recalled, Mr. Will
son was up for reelection on the platform, He
kept Us out of war; He got US into it right
after election; which was all right We should
have gone in before, and should have been pre-
pairing all along in view of the practical GER
tainty that we should have to go in. Our paci-
fist secretary could not keep out of any
longer; but he helped as far as he could to keep
our slackers with their alleged scruples against
military service out That was only one Of the
many reasons why the American people gather
ed en- masses on last Tuesday and resolved to
keep the Wilson clan out of the white house and
out of congress.

SLEEVES HAVE PART TO PLAY
Arm Coverings Of the Longer Type
Have Most Prominent Place In
Styles of Season.

Sleeves are not the least important
part Of the modes The long sleeve
has the most prominent place and is
of variety Of types.
Frocks made of soft materials pre-
fer to have their sleeves tight over
the arm even though they are kimOno
cut and loose over the sleeves.
In the heavy materials the sleeves
are very often wide as well as long.
A great favorite with the mode is
the seven-eighth sleeve. This sleeve
is frequently bell-shaped and embroid-
cred or trimmed with fur at the lower
edge.
In many of the smartest evening
gowns sleeves are conspicuous by
their absence. In others there are lit
tie Auted caps at the top of the arm.
Evening gowns for restaurant wear
choose long, loose lace sleeves. which
are often very deliberately trimmed
with metal, embroidery.

vently he recalled the merry hours
with the brood of little Dalrymples,
and one incident that mad tinged his
whole career, when he and Ivy were
alone trimming the Christmas tree.
She wore a rose colored, broad ribbon
belt, and he was steadying her on
stool. As she was adjusting some tin
sci its perfumed ends swept his face.
With an impulse he could not analyze
Evans put out one hand, seized the
bit of finery and pressed it to his
lips.
BE careful u he muttered quickly,
for Ivy had nearly lost her balance.
She had witnessed the fervent gesture
Of Evans in the mirror. She stepped
to the floor, her face crimson, her eyes
showing half fright, and breathless
with emotion. In intense tones he
whispered.
Il am thinking Of leaving Weston,
but If you care for me-" and then
Mrs. Dalrymple abruptly entered the
room and Evans had no further op.
pOrtunity of seeing Ivy alone. The
next day position with the circus
was offered and he gave heed to the
call Of ambition
His eyes glOwed now, and there was
a rapt smile on his face as he took
up pencil and filed in a telegraph
blank. 1t was to Mrs. Dalrymple.. It
read:
Santa Claus will drop in on your
dear little ones at eight O'Clock Christ
mas eve. Have them ready for the
surprise Of their lives. / hope that
pretty cousin of yours is still with
you"
ut can't offend her" reflected Evans.
at may remind. Dear girl! the big
success 1 have made shrlnks very

worth" and Evans arose to greet the
man who had charge of the shows

"I've followed your orders, Mr..
Evans" he said "The RENDERS are
in excellent shape. I've trimmed them

"Good!" nodded Evans briskly. "Tn

ed the old circus man.
One of the favorite stunts" of Ross
Evans had been to make his advance
route with the high single-seated
buggy and a pair Of the circus rein
deers. He was proud of his team.
1t was a 20-mile drive to Weston.
Late in the afternoon, arrayed in
Santa Claus costume, Evans started on
his trip. Mrs. Dalrymple had the lit
tie ones posted at the windows, and
the Christmas tree was lighted. At
the sound of sleigh bells she switched
on the outside electric light. Into the
yard roadway came the most ravishing-
~ delightful Kriss Kringle with his
wonderful RENDERS bedecked and daz-
zling with cleaning tinsel and holly.
It was like a dream, those ensuing
two hours. And Ivy assisted, and it
seemed like paradise to the wanderer
to revel amidst such joyous friendll-
ness. And when the little ones had
