WILSON TORN BY
EMOTION, HITS
ENEMIES
Wartime President Delivers
Second Speech in Period
of % Hours.

His voice scarcely audible. his
speech faltering and his lips witch
ing in efforts to hold back tears,
Woodrow Wilson, Americas war
time executive, presented a pathetic
picture before hundreds Of admirers
who yesterday afternoon gathered
in front of his S street residence
TO pay him their annual Arn1istice
Day tribute.
Despite his fragile physical con-
dition which enabled him to devote
only two Of the eleven minutes ne
stood on his doorstep to speak, the
former President musterd sufficient
strength to hurl singing DEFY TO
his enemies in the following words:
Fools Destroyed Before.
''T have seen fools resist Provi-
dence before and I have seen their
destruction, as will come upon these
again-utter destruction and con-
tempt. That we shall prevail is as
sure as that God reigns."
In his second address in less tnan
twenty-four hours and the third ne
has made since he left the White
House. the nations one-time leader
said:
"I am indeed deeply touched and
honored by this extradinary exhibit
ton that I wish you would transfer
your homage from me to the men
who made Armistice Day possible.
It was possible because our boys had
beaten the enemy to a standst1li.
You know-if you viii permit me to
be didactic for q moment-'armlstice'
merely means 'standstill Of arms.

''I am proud to remember that /

army ever thrown together" Here
Mr.. Wilson'S eyes filled with tears
and he stopped for a moment.
Pardon my emotion" he inter-
polated. then picking up the thread
of his thought again, although the
direct command was in my great
friend Pershing. I would gladly
transfer to him the laurels Of victory.
] thank you with all my heart for
your kindness"
When he had concluded these
WOToS, the CTOWQ OuTSC In cnOGrS
and the band struck up a popular
tune, but Mr.. Wilson, replacing his
hat and hanging his cane in his
upper ceat pocket, continued, this
time making the tart retort which
gave evidence that he has the ut
most faith in the ultimate triumph
o. the principles for which he nas
stood.
Senator Glass Speaks.
As he concluded, Mr.. Wilson said
In low voice to those near him,
That's about all I can do" and
slowly re-entered the house. Sena-
tor Glass of Virginia acted as
spokesman for the visitors in their
salutation to their leader.
In the second-story window Of the

GERMANY CHANGES HER TUNE

Ever since the Treaty of Versailles
was signed the Germans have been
whining the old ditty familiar to
street corner beggars-"Won't you
give a deserving man the price of a
bed and a meal?" But the police
have proven beyond a shadow of a
doubt that most of such panhandlers
have fortunes tucked away in mat
tresses and old shoes.
Likewise Germany has been proven
TO be better off financially than the
other nations of Europe who engaged
in the World War. Their manufac-
turtles have increased amazingly---the
exports have gone up in leaps and
bounds. And ms fast as they reaped
their harvests Of gold they shipped
it out to Swiss and Holland banks.
In the meantime they were working
their presses overtime to print marks
tina were hardly worth the paper
they were printed on.
Now that France has invaded the
richest part Of Germany just as Ger
many invaded France in 1870, it has
been found by the Germans that their
bluff is played out. So they are ask
ing for a conference to arrange the
payments Of their just debts. They
promise 10 be good il France will
ease off little, "a kicked dog al
ways howls!"

A GRATIFYING AWAKENING

Tuesday newspapers contained the
statement that Secretary Hughes has
Informed the British, French, Ital-
ian and Greek governments that the
American Red Cross will terminate
its emergency relief work in Greece
on June 30 next" He said that the
relief problem in the Near East "can
hardly lie in measures of temporary
relief alone and that refugees should
''be absorbed as rapidly as possible
unto the normal life of the country
where they find themselves
II is gratifying that the United
States Government is waking UP to
the fact that we have been made a
nation of suckers. After this gov
eminent contributed fifty million of
dollars to Russian Relief last year, il
was later discovered that Russia was
exporting their grain to other coun-
tries and getting good prices for it.
1t is rank idiocy for the United
States to neglect it's own needy by
helping the needy of other nations.
Russia has vast coal deposits, but
Russia did not send us coal during
the famine that made all of us suf-
fer.
1t is time that we put away NOR
bid sentiment and substituted in it's
stead a little sane reason. Secre-
tary Hughes action may be the he
ginning of systematic use of our
money among our own needy peo-
pies.

VITAL QUESTIONS
DISCUSSED BY
LEADING EDITORS
OF THE COUNTRY
PROBLEM OF THE SLACK Err
VOTE

By dint of much urging and adver-
tising large number of citizens fin
ally voted in the recent election, al
though their interest was slow to
kindle and many put in an eleventh
hour appearance. The apathy of the
American voter has become more
serious problem than is generally
realized.
In the election of November, 1920,
for example, when popular interest
was keyed to a high pitch, 26 mil
lion voters went TO the polls out of
possible 81 million. There were
hundred and fifty thousand citizens
who voted two years ago in Minne-
sofa and failed to vote at the recent
election The attendance at the pri-
maries and at local elections makes
poorer showing. We lack in this
country the sense of patriotism that
takes the maximum number to the
polls.
Other countries faced by the same
problem, have resorted to various
ways of meeting it, according to
Samuel Spring, writing in Earper's
of 1.-THE Voter Who Will Not Vote"
Belgium has had compulsory voting
since 1892 Absence from the polls
is punishHi in Belgium by fines and
by posting the names of negligent
voters.
Spain alsc Furnishes The delinquent
voters ra.Ic, and if the oifense is
repeated adds two pc cent to HRS
tax. In s,e cantons r Switzerland
compulsory voting is enforced, and
even this measure gets out only from
70 to 80 per cent of the possible
vote. Illinois has the rather unique
provision that only those who refuse
to vote shall be liable to jury luty.
But this tends to lower the quality
Of jurors.
The problem of the Stacker voter
that has perplexed other countries
appears to be facing this nation. Will
the United States have to come to
system of fines, tax increases or pub
lie reprimands in order to get voters
out to the polls? Getting the voter
TO the polls is only the first step in
making democracy safe for itself.
The second and no less essential step
is that of securing an intelligent
vote, when it is finally cast.-Min-
neapolis journal.

The American Legion has pledged
100000 by May Both as a permanent
endowment fund, the income from
which will be devoted to the. decora-
ton of these graves on Memorial
Day.
1t is the belief of the members of
Flemington Post 159 that the people
of Hunterdon County will be proud
of the privilege of sharing in the
raising of this fund. We cannot, all
of us, personally decorate grave to
show our respect and honor for the
defender of the nation who lies
there, but we can each share in max
ing possible the perpetuation of this
beautiful ceremony. So we ask that
every citizen of Hunterdon county
contribute Ten Cents, no more.
Ten cents is not much, and every
one should consider it duty as we'll
as a privilege to subscribe to so sac
red a cause.
1t will obviously be impossible 10
thank each Individual contributor, but
the total sum received, both by the
Post and the National Treasurer of
the Legion will be published as soon
as the figures are available.
Boxes for these contributions will
be in most schools and many stores.
We ask that all boxes be sent by APP
ril 80 to Harold Gale, Chairman Me
mortal Fund Committee, Ringoes, N.

some time ago by the Bucks County
Council for the Promotion of Peace is
now under way, and will close the

tain it. To each of the. four grades
in the High Schools two prizes will
be awarded, of $40 and SIS respect
lively, and to each of the 18th and 9th
grades, two prizes of SIS and $3.50
each. The contest has the hearty
support of Co. Supt. J. II. Hoffman
and his assistants, and it is hoped
there may be a general response on
the part of the pupils. The contest
committee of the Council, Of which
Mrs. Hannah G. C. Pickering, of
Woodbourne, is chairman, is getting
in touch with the various high and
grammar school teachers of the

tors will lend their cooperation to the
affair.

WHEN Is WOMAN THE LEGITI.
MATE PREY FOR MAN?

A great joke has been made of
the attitude taken by fond parents
when boy begins to pay attentions
to their daughter. young man, what
are your attentions towards our Mel
lie," has been the question over
which we have laughed when some
young Lothario has been turned Grim
son with embarrassment as he is put
thru the third degree"
And yet that question supported as
it is by the jealous care natural
parent should feel and show, is the
fundamental principle upon which is
built the fabric of moral relationship
in marriage. 1t is perfectly just and
natural attitude for a parent to
take parent owes it to daughter
to protect her from the flippancies
and designs that may be directed at
her by tricky males.
Still more significant is it, il that
daughter is in business and her en-
ployer begins to show interest in her.
At this time of the spring when the
sap is rising, there are lot Of emo
tons also stirring in the human sap
which needs to be guarded against.
When the boss begins to pat his
stenographer's hand in fatherly
way, it is time that stenpgrapher
should begin to look around for
another boss if the present one is
already married.
The sphere Of women has broad
ened astoundingly during these last
few years. Especially in business.
But the old idea that a woman in
business is the legitimate prey for
any designing male has not changed.
Only man can know the thickness
of man. And tho it is generally un-
derstood that 'us men must stand
together" it is the wise husband and
father who interprets certain mascu-
line actions for those he loves.
The world is full of men who take
advantage of the women who are
thrown into close proximity to them
thru business channels. The wise
woman will demand that the "busi-
ness man" confine his familiarities
to HIS BUSINESS.
