This paper has enlisted
with the government in the
cause of America for the
period of the war..............
WHAT YOU SAY.
Whnt result from what you say la
ijo. ■ important than what you mean
I what you say, says Chicago News.
Thus in everyday language may be ex
pressed the theory on which the United
States department of justice bases Its
claim that more rigorous federal
statutes are necessary in order that
propaganda injurious to the conduct
of the war may be successfully com
bated. A memorandum of the depart
ment says: “All questions of motive
should be most carefully excluded from
those provisions of the statute under
which the more subtle, dangerous and
effective types of antiwar propaganda
will have to be fought.” It is pointed
out that the practice of courts in the
Interpretation of war statutes is to in
struct juries “to be careful and not mix
motive with intent.” This is clear. It
means putting acts of the civilian pop
ulation on practically the same basis
as acts of the military, when those acts
bear upon the success or Injury of the
conduct of the war. The sleeping sen
try is seldom—almost never—guilty of
Intent to help the enemy kill his soldier
comrades. And there are civilians
thoroughly sincere In their affection
for America and possessed of profound
hatred for Prussianlsm who let their
tongues wag. who prattle and proclaim
things helpful to the enemy. The rea
soning of the department of Justice Is
that the one who is unintentionally
pro-German must be held responsible
without relation to motive, precisely
as the army holds responsible the sen
try who did not mean to go to sleep on
duty.
“America, the melting pot”—much
had been written about that pot, and
then the war.
And when the war
came we found our admirable pot not
so admirable; somehow or other the
crucible had failed to work. Nor was
It the fault wholly of the newcomer
from Europe. Largely It was the fault
of those whose fathers had fought to
preserve the Union and whose fore
fathers had fought to establish It, says
Washington Herald.
The pot was
here all right, but those who for gen
erations had boasted themselves Amer
icans had failed to build a fire under
it Instead they had bullded each his
own selfish fire. Love of the common
country, the cherishing and developing
of the principles and ideas for which
historically America stands, were out
of fashion. What could the newcom
er learn of our Ideals when we our
selves had forgotten them?
Major Bishop, the Canadian aviator,
has been appointed (<• the admfnistra-
tlve air board in London. When he
left the front and received his Victoria
cross some months ago, after shooting
down nearly fifty German planes and
two balloons, it was supposed that his
days as a fighting aviator at the front
were over; but he went to France
again as the commander of a new Brit
ish squadron and Is reported to have
added to his string of victories. Major
Bishop won distinction by his combina
tion of bravery with coo! caution. His
victories were due not to reckless risk,
but to painstaking intelligence.
He
has now reached the highest post at
tainable by a British war aviator.
Somebody says rats will not stay in
a room where mosquitoes are. AVell,
mosquitoes won’t stay in a room where
bats are and bats won't stay where rats
are, so what are we going to do about
It!
"CAREERS FOR OIRLS."
Already It sounds old-fashlonetl to
refer to “carvers for girl»." since vir
tually all careers are now for girls.
Instead of the quest being f'r Jobs,
the Jobs are looking for the girls, says
Kansas City Star. A potash produc
ing company hits been hunting high
and low for a woman competent to test
the daily output, weighing and other
wise computing the quality. Salaries
in the new fields of work are generally
higher than those in the old.
The
dressmaker, schoolteacher, stenogra
pher, newspaper woman, saleswoman,
waitress, and garment milker are not
receiving much more than they did five
years ago Even the woman lawyer
and the woman doctor may not find
themselves prepared to raise their fees
materially, but the munitions worker,
the electrician, all workers in indus
trial plants are paid the same salaries
men formerly were paid. It Is an era
of prosperity for women and the old
reasons why girls leave home do not
compare with the new war reasons.
“The pathetic part of It is," said a
Kansas City man the other day. “that
they never will go back home again—
to stay.
What is to become of the
homes! Wil! there be Any! And yet
I cannot blame the women. They had
the worst of It. It has been a man’s
world. Now I very much fear it is
going to be a woman's world.”
The peasants In Russia will probably
never lose the land. Frederic C. Howe
writes in New Republic. For tn ev
ery country in Europe In which the
land has been distributed, distribution
has remained intact. The French rev
olution distributed the land among the
French peasants.
There have been
monarchies and reactions since then,
The Bourbons nnd Napoleon came
back. But the land never went back.
And the essentia! democracy of France
has never changed from a democracy
of peasant owners. The same Is true
of Holland. Switzerland and Denmark.
Once destroyed, feudalism cannot come
back. And when destroyed, the feudal
classes lose their political power be
cause their economic power Is- gone.
The only aristocracies In Europe that
exercise any material Influence in the
politics of their states are those aris
tocracies that have clnng to th<-'r ’’
feudalestates, 'ad weir
!y expect th
’
iu Rus
sia.
The German foreign minister In his
rqjent speech, shifted the blame for
the beginning of the war from England
back to Russia, the original goat.
Hymns of hate were dropped long ago.
so the Huns must have concluded that
policy is not a paying one. and that
there is no use in irritating more than
is possible an enemy who will have
a great deal to say about peace terms
when the time for making peace comes
Russia being down and out, more or
less laid upon her will not mntter, and
such a little matter as consistency and
truth never did trouble Teutonic
psychology.
There Is a pathetic note of human In
terest In the Information that only
wives, mothers and sisters of soldiers
are making gas masks for the Amer
ican army. This precaution of love
In the work has made the entrance of
treachery In the slightest degree hu
manly Impossible.
A lady writes that men are taking en
tirely too keen an Interest in feminine
j wearing apparel. We think so, too;
but so long as ladies wear the kind
| of clothes that are In fashion now it is
simply Impossible to keep masculine
attention diverted.

Successful home canning of sweet
