Only Quibbling On the
Peace Terms.
!AcIviccB from Turin any that the
German pence delegates show n gen
eral willinnesH to nreo to tlio nliied
terms, except that they itiHist they
will not pay an indemnity.
This determination may not ha ho
serious, an it sounds. It is largely
matter of definition. lly "indemnity"
the Germans are said Lo mean ''punl
, tivo damages," a payment made hy
way of fine or punishment. They me
ftaid to he willing to pay any reason
able Bum that it put down as ''reparn
tlon,' that is, compenHnliori for com
jmtahle tlumnes inflicted by them in
the course of the war.
This acorns to ho somewhat of n
quihlile. It is drawing pi'titty fine
dislim'tiann. Tlie Century Dictionary
defines "indemnity" na "compensa
tion for loss, damnpo or injury sus
tained which seems to he just nboul
what most people, including tho Ger
mans, mean when they speak of "rep
aration," Hut, after all, it matters little what
technical terms are used. All the
Germans can possibly pay will not
equal the actual "loss, damage or in
jury" they have infiicled on the Al
JieH. If the Huns prefer the mild
word, "reparation," therefore, there
need ho no dispute. In any event,,-tho
result will bo the same. They will
pay all that can he squeezed out at
them.
All Soldiers Are Welcome
On Wednesday.
It is to he understood without res
ervation that all who have been in
the service- who have returned home
ure Invited to the reception that is tu
be given in honor, of the Hospital,
Unit, All who had a part in the
common cause may safely feel that
they are held in the highest appre
ciation. When the hoys were leaving, it was
the rule for I.u Grande to, give them j
a farewell reception, and that feelinjt
has in no way diminished, although
as n "function" it was more practic
able to honor tho forth-going soldier.s
in considerable numbers at n time
than it is lo celebrate their return,
ns they come home in much smaller
groups or as is the principal rule, one
at n time.
The occasion is now offered when
the hospital unit, is coming home al
most in n body as it left, to not only
honor the members of that unit, but
fill others who were in the serv.ice.
This is the i 1 1 1 o 1 1 i . n all the way
throu-rh. It is to be an occasion foe
mutual rejuii-iniT all tv.mul, and all
who have buvn in the service are cor

a new energy, a new economy and a

answer to those questions.

NEWSl'AI'EU AUVEUTlSINt;
The. volume of advertising in the;S
last few months, through the United -g
State3 as a whole, has been unprece- 3
dented. Statistics collected from u , fa
number of sources show that greater 3
use, of advertising is being made than p
ever before. fe
-The Information . and Education fej
Service of the Department of Labor i a!
commends heartily the present use of
advertising as a most patriotic public
service. During the war the depart- f
ment and other e-overninont.-il :!-eiie;c y
were compelled to ask pcopfe not to
buy anything not actually essential,
because the war had to go on; but .
now, when it is of the greatest im
portance that the wheels of iml'e-.try
start running smoothly, advertia n;;
and buying are the. processes mosi
necessary to start them.
Hy advertising extensively the seller
informs his market what goods c;in
bo bought to advantage, lly careful
reading of the advertisements the pur
chaser is enabled to choose discrimi
natingly, in order that his own needs
may be best met and in order that,
his money may be utilized to best
purposes.
The Information Service is doiotr,
what it can to cooperale witli news
papers, advertisers, and the ennsum-
ling public, in order that the interests
of all three may be served through the
stimulation of advertising. It .is the
view of department officials that the
effect of the, Advertising already pub
lished has been. muiUed in aiding Iho
restoration of business to normal, nod;
that through tho consistent use of ad
vertising much can bo done to achieve
national prosperity. ;i
