We cannot, will not, permit the millions who have made the great sacrifice to have died in vain. I Our duty to ruined Belgium, devastated France, threatened humanity, brought us into this frightful struggle at an appalling . cost. Our duty is not yet fully performed. Old Belgium, as near ly as may be. must be restored. The beautiful France of yester year must be rebuilt. Poland must be free. AH of the Eussias must be returned to their rightful owners. There is much, very, very much, to be done. It is impossible for Germany ever to pay her ghastly debt of the last four years. But an absolutely defeated, properly penitent Germany must pay every dollar for the full work of reparation, restoration, restitution, no matter how many generations yet un born must be mortgaged to meet these unmistakable demands of justice. The righteous war of America and the allies continues. Berlin is still our objective. - Again, and yet again, "On to Berlin!" MJ.B.Coffee Sii''m'S ' ijy I A Story of Married Life REVELATIONS OF A WIFE By Adele Garrison SHE MUST NOT ESCAPE aERMANY. AT BAY, cannot, must not, escape the full IT. penalty for her world-murder, world-rape, world-ravage. lne strongle-hold which the Central Powers through 40 years of cold-blooded premeditation and secret preparation was able to fasten on civilized, commercial, peaceful nations, through sud den, unexpected assault, and the illegal, criminal abrogation of sacred treaties as "mere scraps of paper," has been lost forever, Yesterday's "Deutschland uber Alles" and its threat of rightfulness have passed into oblivion. By the grace of God, and the higher courage as well as the superior forces of America and her allies, this now harmless, meaningless "menace" has become the "Deutschland unter Al les" of today. " - " All possibility of the waging of victorious warfare by Ger many haa vanished. Prussian militarism is at an end. The final sunset of pan- Germanism, the selfish, cruel, monstrous dream of the kaiser for world domination and "Mittel aEuropa" has, at last, darkened the furthermost corners of the fatherland in which it was so brutal ly conceived. The successful, advancing, conquering warfare of Germany has given way to retrenchment, reverse tactics, "strategic re treat" Defeated by superior forces in the field and a higher, cleaner form of valor than Huns may ever know, she now turns, vanquished, from the fields of war, and resorts to campaigns of peace proposals, peace acceptances and discussions "to agree up on practical details of the application of these terms." To these palpably plain subterfuges for delaying the inevitable, escaping full payment for the cost of her heinous sins, and saving what vestiges may remain of a broken and dismembered empire, she now, cowardly, resorts. This Is the real voice speaking in the latest acceptance of President Wilson's terms by Chancellor Maximilian "in the name of the German government and the German people." The successful, advancing, victorious warfare of America and her allies is still on. The promise to evacuate conquered territory, hurrying as it does fait on the heels of razed cities, burning villages and dev astated territory having no possible military advantage, comes too late. What la this so-called German government and German peo ple f Is it the same authority which would sing acceptances of peace with the left hand while it shells lifeboats, filled with wo men and children, with the right T There is absolutely nothing in the 14 provisions of Presi dent Wilson's' address of January 8 to warrant any such fright , tul construction of his message. He demanded voluntary evacua tionnot withdrawal and retirement, dictated alone by military nfaWty and self-preservation before even giving considera tion to any German peace proposal. Nor was there any promise of accepting the first offer of a hemmed-in and rapidly dissolv ing German empire. President Wilson stated plainly, at that time, the conditions that must be accepted, and insisted that the responsibility, the full, properly accredited responsibility of those making the offer must be clearly established beyond all possibility of doubt A few days ago the president not only questioned the re sponsibility of Chancellor Max. but demanded indorsement of properly qualified and official recognized authorities to any fut ure note of correspondence. The mere signature, "The German government and the German people," is so flearly an evasion that even the layman sees it at a glance. Addressed to the head of the American nation, it is nothing less than an added insult to Germany's long and vividly remembered list. We entered this war from no selfish motive, but to end it properly and keep this world "a decent place to live in," as Pres ident Wilson so clearly stated. We are still in this war and will continue until it is properly ended. Invincible on land and sea, as right is ever ultimately in vincible, Germany need not hope to challenge our intelligence and Integrity ad Cfenpo the same inevitable reward that is her due. President Wilson will not so much as consider anything less. The slow to anger are invariably plenteous in wrath. Wa do not want one American or allied soldier to die un- T Whom OK Oloky Tileuhene? "Is there anything the u.u:.-r w'th our telephone, Margaret ?" Couain Agatha aaked the question hurriedly aa abe came in frore the wa,k which ah took every morning unlets the weather wn tmpoaiibly Inclement Her whole manner waa full of sup preaied excitement, and there waa i apeculatively curious look in her eyea 1 did not like, and that warned me to tie careful in my anawer. "There may be," I replied non-com initially. "1 haven't bad occaiion to aik for a number thia morning." I refrained from mentioning that Mra. Durkee had telephoned to ma but a few minutea be fore. "Well, you will probably find out that here ia," ahe aaid, "for aa I went Into the drug atore Juat now, Richard waa in a booth talking away like mad. He didn't notice me, and, of courae, I didn't bother him." "Ob, that wouldn't prove our 'phone waa out of order," I countered amooth ly. "If you had lived in the aame houae with Dicky long you would know that he la an lnveteraite telephone fiend. He went out for a walk a few minutea ago, and I auppoaa he thought of aomething ha wlihed to aay to aome one in New York, and you know hia impatience. He would nover wait to come home. But 1 will teat the telephone if you are worried about it." I walked ateadlly to the telephone, took down the receiver and when L.beard the operator murmur "Number" I aaid cour teoualy: "W1U you give me the time plcaae " "Nine forty-eight." "Thank you." I hung up the receiver and faced Couain Agatha's c 'loua, craf ty eyea. "The telephone la all right, you aee," I aaid with aa indifferent an air aa I could manage, and going to the table where I had laid my knitting I gathers It up and atarted leiaurely up the atalra. A Momentous Queaitno. I waa conacloua Couain Agatha'a eyea were fixed upon my retreating back, and I beard a malevolent aniff. But ahe didn't aay anything more, for which I waa truly grateful, and I reached the abetter of my room and locked the door behind me before throwing off the sem blanca of nonchalance I had ao care fully assumed. I laid my knitting down with handa that trembled in aptte of my effort to keep them quiet and walking up to my mirror, looked Into It aa I mentally ques tioned myaelf. It ia a queer habU of mine whenever I am troubled thua to face my own reflection aa I atudy out my problrma. It la to me aa if the re flection in the morror were a very real person, who could anawer mf ncationa. There waa but one queation confront ing me, but it waa a momentous one: Why had Dicky rushed to a tcivph me aa Boon aa be could get nut uf uie houae, after telling me that he Couldn't reach by telephone the people with whum he had an engagement for the eveniug. but muat acquaint them by a note of hia change of plana? There waa only onf; answer, t.'ie could be but one. He did not v.ih me to know the identity of the pil with whom he had the engagement That it waa an engagement he wry much wished to keep, t tniar from the manner in which he bad rtfotved my announcement that Mra. Durket and hi r son were coming over to spend the ?vo ning wrth ua before Alfred'a departure for the officers' training cuuip at L'htt burg. He had been very much put out at the thought of tbeir coming, although the Durkeea are old frienda of hia, and he ia very fond of both Mra. Dnrkee and her son. There were two possible explanation of Dicky's behavior, and neither of throi waa calculated to bring anything but humiliation and aorrow to me. The pet eon with whom he had the engagement and whoae identity he waa careful) ' abielding from me, muat be either Grat Draper or Edith Fairfax. Dicky kev that I didn't object to hia Slaving aociU engagementa which did not include me, indeed, to have accompanied t.m to ihe "partiea" of aome of hia studio arqjaint ancea would have bored me infinitely While be did not make a jimc-tii- uf going out aocially without me, yet tere had been a number of occaaions when he had done ao, and he always told me all about his plana. Can It Be. Grace Draper'a name had not been mentioned between ua for uany wombs. If It hadn't been for the recent ph.'to- yraph of her I had found tucked into the box of Dicky'e possessions which waa hidden behind the rafters of the Brennan houae from where we had mov ed I ahould not have thought of her in connection with thia vtrauge behavior of Dicky's, dangeroua aa she undobuted ly, was, determined to make trouble be tween Dicky and me, aa I knew her to be. Dlcky'a friendship with Edith Fair fax, the Virginia art atudent, whoae atu- dio waa in the aame building with his, had grieved and had annoyed me by the secrecy which Dicky had seen fl; to throw around it. But aa I looked at my aelf in the mirror I knew I would give a great deal to be aasured that the per aon, to whom my huaband waa tele phoning was pretty, inoffensive Edith Fairfax. I did not dare analyse the fear that consumed me as I faced the possibility of Dicky's again meeting the. woman I ao dreaded. It involved something far more imprtant than even the atab.lity of Dicky'a love for me. 1 waa very anre that Grace Draper waa In the employ of our country's enemies. My huaband had shown a curious apathy, or ao I had Imagined, toward the entry if Amer tea into the world war. With a little shudder I flung my bands over my face aa I atood in front of the looking flats. I couldn't look into the reflection of my own eyea and aee the terrified doubt mirrored there! Why?
