If now. when as a nation we are in universal condemnation of j Hunism, yet do we hold out our hands to accept his works, wnai win ne think and with what measure shall he estimate the sincerity of our ex pressions of repugnance and horror at what he has done since the sun rose this morning? What mitigation can we claim in the thought that Am erica was not yet overseas when these trinkets were fashioned? Kven while the gaudy paint was yet fresh upon these trinkets were Ilelgian girls be ing dragged Into slavery worse than death." We do not lack for toys; toys by traliiloads made in American factor ies, by hands which are clean; toys also by carloads made by our ally In Japan, where childhood is sacred, and love, not hate, is taught at mothers' breasts. Kven were there none, far better our boys and girls go without them than figil pleasure In the handi work of a nation which made public holiday to celebrate the loss of the Lusitania. and which in these latter days is steeped in the "glory" of mon- strocities. Could our little men who sacrifice many a childish pleasure to buy war stamps and contribute pen nies to the Ked Cross, and our little mothers who knit so patiently with hands that can barely hold the needles, would one of these knowing ly find any pleasure ou a toy "made in Germany?" H. H. WINDSOR. THE WORLD MOVES With the Hapsburg family sinking into oblivion, because of the signing f peace terms by representatives of the dual monarchy, the radical steps toward rule of the people in many of the smaller countries in Europe, the abdication of Wilhelm of Ger many, which is just now In the proc ess of taking place, and the Czar of Russia, a character that is of interest to students of European history only, there can be but one conclusion, and that is that the monarchs of Europe, those who held the, whip hand over millions of people, have succeeded in digging their own graves during the fast four yer.rs, and that the world is Infinitely better oft for that reas n, at least, Of course the appalling loss of life tannot be excused, but that result is ure to be a wonderful advancement to coming generations in those coun tries, an improvement that seeming ly would not have been possible in any other way. Just what the result will be no one an foretell. The history of the revo lution In France Is being repeated in Russia today. The fact that five or more separate and self governed states seem to be forming out ot Austria-Hungary, and with these the promise of revolution ary and evolutionary practices, all ot which will no doubt lead to greatly improved conditions there, leads one to speculate on Just what turn the evolution will take in Germany prop er. That Prussia wil be a separate gov ernment seems assured, and no doubt many of the agonies through which every country seems destined to pass before it is fitted for self rule, will ke necessary before the people of Ger- mnay are on a plane that will ap nroach that ot much of the peoples of the earth. Where is the super man ot which we at one time heard? To be sure he is faund far, far away from, the "fatherland." CAS GERMANY MAKE OUR TOYS? SIDELIGHTS OX THE "El.U" EPIDEMIC IX PIUNEVII.I.E "New York, Oct. 23. Several thousand cases of German-made toys arrived here today, Associated Press." Toys! For whom?

The M. D.'s have been busy all of the time "shooting" the people in the arms and to date there seems bo ces sation in the demand for the treat ment, There Is no harm at all in the set urn and it has been proven that there is a great deal of good In It in the reduction of the seriousness ot the attacks ! not in the absolute pre vention. Soma of the remarks heap! were funny; sorjo were foolish and some were iodiotical on this subject. A girl said: "Oh, Doctor, can't you freeze my arm so it won't hurt so terribly? Another 3aid; "I hope these dead germs wont give me blood poison." A man w jo is suposed to have a good education said: "All foolishness. The sum and substance ot the knowl edge of the medical profession is to administer habit-forming drugs and these serums. They are all hysteri cal. These treatments are all as old as the hills and they do not do a bit of good." A lady remarked: "No indeed, I would not take the 'serium.' I am afraid it was taken from some animal that wasn't healthy. I would rather take my chances with influenza." A boy, about ten: "Say, Doc, is this going to hurt me? I ain't afraid but I want to know first. If it hurts I aint goin' to have it done." A man, about 200 lbs. dead weight: "Say, Doc My heart isn't very gooo Don't you think I had better have a little drink of something before you start in?" The doctor told him to take a drink of water. Lady, anxiously: "Is it true, doctor. that the Germans have poisoned a lot of this serum with Influenza germs, and that that is the reason the dis ease is spreading so fast? One man wanted to patent a mach ine gun hypodermic syringe so that the doctor could shoot a whole office full at one shot. One boy wanted his dad to have a double shot because be was looking for an interview in the woodshed with him and he wanted the handicap of a sore arm in his favor. If anyone thinks the doctor isn't a tired man let him sit at the outside of the office and hear this steady stream of patients comment. s. s officers? For those French boyg and girls with pitiful sightless eyes? For those whose little bodies rest in the churchyards of Italy, that died in pain from poisoned Hun candy? P"or those other children slowly starved to death in Poland or massacred in Ar menia? Toys? Toys made by Huns to whom innocence and childhood are but toys to be played with and then crushed and broken? Toys whose very con tact contaminates and leaves upon the touch of babyhood invisible clots of blood? As well bring a deadly ser- nt into the home to spew its venom o.i the cradle. Why shall we befoul and taint the purity . of American tliildhood with a reminder of the fiendish treatment the Huns have gloried in ever since that fateful Aug ust of 1914? Can one ever look upon a Noah's Ark "Made in Germany" and put from his mind those hun dreds of helpless innocents whose lilken locks are twined with sea weed? Can one hold a German doll in her arms and forget the thousands dead from famine who once made glad a mother's arms? Can a boy de light in the contortions of a mechan ical Hun clown and forget those brave young men who writhed in ag ny when crucified on castle walls by these same Huns? Can a ball col ored with the .red of the Huns fail to suggest the flame from bursting grendaes hurled by arms uplifted in the 'attitude of "kamarad?" Let those who would invite fear some ghosts into the home to hover around the Christmas tree buy Ger man toys. If one would hang the bonghs with evil omens, and bid the wail of agonized spirits float through the branches and fan the flickering flame of candles, let him buy German toys. Let those who can, make mer ry with the product of those very hands which even at this moment are flegerly filling shells with poison Eas 'tt and deadly flames and hurling them against our own flesh and blood. And what of the merchant who for fordid gain would barter these sou venirs of a loathsome nation and in sult the loyalty of lisping lips? What could more delight the cunning Hun.J what more quickly bring .the sneering smile to cruel faces, or gladden the MODIFIES PRESENT RULES To all County Administrators: The following wire has been re ceived which will modify tee rules to public eating places: "Referring to public eating places mince pie, larded sweetbread i, larded filet of beef, hash, goulash, meat cakes, meat pies, etc., containing two or more kinds of meats, dc.apa and trimmings, may be served without vi olating general order number Four. It has been decided that following combinations: liver and bacon, chick en and Virginia ham, and ulub sand wiches may be served; also that a variety of sandwiches containing dif ferent meats mey be served; also that a variety of sandwiches containing different meats may be sold at one time. This supercedes previous in structions regarding the interpreta tion of general order Four. a We expect that you will discon tinue absolutely the issuance of sugar for canning purposes after October 31- t W. 8. 8. NEVER A. NIGHT BEFORE AWAY FROM HOME - The whole town was gathered on the platform that morning to see the train pull out men, women and children, waving and cheering and trying hard to keep on smiling tn rough their tears. Out of the car windows leaned the boys to wave & last good-bye. Just average, cli ar-eyed country town boys; twenty of them altogeth er. And seventeen of them had nev er slept a night away from home be fore. They are dwelling in a strange land tonight, whose language they cannot understand. But across the mud and the snow a light gleams warm from a hut on the edge of the town, and inside good cheer and happiness are ready for whoever will come in to claim them. Friendship dwells in the hut; and keeps its warm fires burning bright this winter. Let it be perfectly clear to the men over there that you have not forgotten. To the men that only a little while ago were boys who had never slept a nignt away from home.
