necessarily. 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!"

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.

"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!
