Speedy Action


Fairness to Armenia and to our late
allies requires a speedy response to
the request transmitted from San
Reno for this country to- accept a
mandate over Armenia.
What the answer will be is already
known and there is no reason for pro-
longed debate. Armenia, whose in
dependence our State Department has
recognized, is grayely injured by I'M
certainty as TO her fate, and Great
Britain, France and Italy have many
things to attend to.
Distance does not lend enchartment
to the Armenian project. 1t is no Sc
eret that the Turks and kurds have 10
intention of leaving Armenia alone
and the Bolshevist armies are press
ing forward from the Caucasus. A.
ceptance of the mandate would plunge
us into one war, and perhaps into two
Moreover, in the region assigned to
Armenia are many Turks and others
who are in possession, of lands the
Armenians claim to be theirs. We
would be expected to carry on grea,
dispossess proceedings or become "a,

How Properly to
Hang Old GLORY

Capt Silas Adams. patriotic in.
struetor of the Department of Maine
1rand Army of the Republic, has
made a careful study Of the custom
OF hanging the flag on all occasions
which have been adopted by Ions
usage but for which Congress has
passed no laws only as far as it re-
lates to the military service. Can
tain Adams, who has often noticed
nass hung contrary to these rules
which are appended, has given these
general instructions which cover all
ordinary cases, and which will be of
interest to many, especially at this
time, when SO many flags are to be
hung.
From careful study and observa-
ton as to the hanging Of the Amer
lean nag. the following may be re-
garded as fundamental rules to fol-

The pe1hls Anniversary

The fact that Memorial Day exer-
cises this year will be conducted both
Sunday and Monday lends special
impressiveness to the solemnity of
the holiday set apart for the COM
memoration- Of the brave deeds Of
Americas loyal sons.
Before the world war Memorial
Day was especially and peculiarly a
day sacred to the boys of 81 and SIS,
although the boys of '9s receivedtheir
honor and reverence too. Since
1917 Memorial Day will always have
the doubly sacred appeal of the SOL
diers Of long ago and Of the sturdy
brown lads who gave their lives on
the fields of France for the cause of
liberty throughout the earth. We
add Chateau Thierry. ST. Mihiel. the
Argonne, and Sedan to Gettysburg,

pomatox.

ton and enjoyment, and become SIM
ply days OF vacation which must be
flled full Of high powered amuse-
ments in order that they may not
pail upon the nervously excited con-
dition which we have made almost
normal to ourselves. This is per-
haps a little less true of Memorial
Day than Of some other holidays, but
OF all solemn and sacred days Memo
rial Day is one of the most holy.
1t may be that the double anniver-
sary Of the present week is ordained
auspiciously-lest we forget.

Congratulations to Gen. Wood
Boston Ira n scrjpD

Concerning the contributions that
have been made by voluntary sue
scribers in every State in the Union
who wish to see Leonard Wood in
the White House, the New York
World, in its editorial today upon the
Senate committees investigation,
says:
There Is no evidence whatever that
any Of this money has been employed
corruptly. On the contrary, it is fair
to infer that it was ALI expended IN
accordance with the law as the law
now stands.
1t was the World which first pub
iished the charges concerning the
contributors to General Woods cam
paign fund that brought about the
Senate's so-called impartial" inves-
fisation. II was the World which
gave its readers, to understand that
fraud and corruption were rampant
IN the Wood campaign. 1t was the
World which spread the stories of
expenditures in Michigan and other
states which were represented as in
violation of the letter and spirit of
existing law The failure of the in
vestigation to prove the charges of
the World. and the confession Of the
world that its charges were proved
TO be false. entitle General Wood to
the congratulations Of every Ameri-
can who loves the truth and fair pla "
regardless of whether he is affiliated
With the Republican or the Demo
cratic party.

from the presidential contest. which
IS the sole purpose of the ~Uriah

conducted in obedience to the prima
~ laws in the several states will rail-

Help the Farmer.

Anyone conversant with current
news realizes that there is wide
spread apprehension respecting a
threatened shortage of foodstuffs
the coming winter. The State
Chamber Of Commerce is urging men
In the cities to plan to spend their
summer vacations working on some
farm: an editor suggests that men be
drafted as for service in the army
and meanwhile the opportunity for
planting the crops is swiftly passing
and the trains bringing meagre
amounts Of fertilizer are slowly COM
ing.
The first suggestion evidently re-
fefs to the male sex; but there would
be need of women as we'll, good
cooks and blitheson,e lasses to wait
on the table and wash the dishes.
And there is the enormous quantity
Of food the city man taking exercise

sumo: and the physicians bill by no

appear to think that nature, when it
made man. made farmer all
quipped to till thu sell. those ac-
quainted with farming know full well
that the average city man would not
be able to earn much more than his
salt the first two weeks on the land.
The draft suggestion is the better,
but there is no likelihood Of it being
adopted this year. Nevertheless, in
emergency it is best to do what we
can. not waiting to estimate results.
Farm gardens may not be expected
10 yield much return, but are better
than nothing unless fertilizer and
seed are used only to be wasted
through lack Of cultivation. Un-
douhtedly many instances viii occur
