WHO LOST THE WAR

AS the Allies grow weary of disputng about who
the Germans take the question of who lost it.
Unlike the Allies they argue not about nations classes
but about individuals.
First they inclined to blame the Kaiser the
Crown Prince for their defeat. Now many of them
making scapegoat of Ludendorff In recent article
written for the New Yorw World Prof Hans Debrueck,
member of the Reichstag committee appointed to find the
real of defeat holds Gen. Ludendof responsible be-
cause of his bad strategy.

the judgment of history.
1t seems more and clear to openminded stu
the that single small group of men
could have been responsible for starting the Or for the
of waging it for the losing of it. The response
bty apparently must be placed the German nation
whole The nation may have been given wrong tendency
in the first place by ambitious unscrupuous and short
sighted leaders, but the nation adopted the doctrine of
triumph through force, made that doctrine its acted
and has had to suffer the inevitable consequences
The of the when unimportant details
ignored nothing less than sinful PRIDE 1t the
arrogant assumption the part of 70000000 people that
the greatest in the world and the only
that in the scheme of things and had right

The rest followed naturally. Pride goeth before
fall" Neither God will tolerate arrogance long
Other nations combined subdue Germany they will
combine again subdue any nation that makes the
rash venture.
Thus all attempt to fix the blame individuals is
futile What allied Germany arrogance, and the
is repentance which may lead in truth to dignity and
power.

'Uncle Wiggily, I don't like to find

one day, as she looked at the bunny
rabbit gentleman, "but you II have to
do something about your room. y
"'What about it ~ asked Uncle Wig
gily. "Do you want me to stand my
room on its head so the ceiling is where
the floor ought to be?'
"Nonsense! OF course not!' laughed
Nurse Jane. "But | mean You II have

Uncle Wiggily only laughed and
twinkled his pink nose. Then he hop
ped up to his room and saw that, in
deed, as Nurse Jane had said, the floor
was covered with waste paper and trash.
Uncle sWiggily had Il habit, when he
finished reading a paper, of dropping
it on the floor. In time the floor was
covered with papers.
''What basket shall |. put the papers

there were so many papers in my

Though the basket was full it wai
not heavy, for papers are light, yo'

hopped with the paper basket, and

NORTH STATION
Radio and Observation Sta
ton at Baffin Bay is
. Suggested.

Washington X An internationally
owned and operated wireless station
and weather observation station on
the shores Of Baffin Bay, to supply
data Of the worlds weather services,
has been proposed. and Aeps are be-
ing taken to insure its installation.
Baffin Bay is pretty far. north, as a
tinent will show, cold winds blow
cheerlessly much of the time. ice and
snow hold sway over the land and sea
for. a good portion of the year, and
the life of those stationed there, cut
off from the worlf except by radio,
would not be OF the easiest; but the
value Of their services to-the world
would be inestimable. it IL said.
Oniciels Enthusiastic.
Officials, Of the United States wealth
err bureau are enthusiastic over the
proposal and will urge the partieipA-
ton of the. government In the co-op-
erative scheme. They point out the
valuable work Of the International

lonely little island Of Jan Mayen, OF
the southeast coast Of Greenland,
where. reports are sent to all the Eu-
services, as well as to the Canadian
and United States weather bureaus. =

PHILOSOPHY.

Philosophy Is good enough, when
everything Is. fair,
To help US see the greater plan be-
hind LIES grief and care;
It's good for talking purposes when
friends drop in to+chat.<
And 1t Is fne to hear them say: Il
never thought of that"
But when q fellows in the mud, be-
.yond the slightest doubt. ,
The best sort of philosophy is first to
help him out.
It's fine ito All your pipe and smoke
and ponder various things,
To find the hidden benefit which every
burden brings;
To build your faith in what is good
and see the distant goal,
And learn that every test /of care is
tonic for the soul;
But when a friend is fighting hard and
being put to rout,
The best sort OF philosophy is first to
help him out.
You take a man in trouble, doubt, OF
danger, or distress.
He doesn't want a lecture on his fu-
ture happiness
When he Is up against 1t hard and
faint and failing fast.
IT'S M use then to call to mind the
errors Of his past;
He doesn't want a moralizlng. preach.
ing friend about,
He desperately needs a chap who'll try
to help him out.
We should be philosophical. All mer
should try to see
The purpose back of every care and
Sall that haste be;
But many a philosopher stands on thu

And dalmly tells a drowning man thai
he must swim or sink;
