A FIGHTER'S PLEA FOB PEACE
THE s(niji;li) for world peuce cuu expect lit lie uKMNtiinui'
from the theoretical pacifist. Kor projircus in such a move
ment depends upon pulilic opinion, nnd public opinion instinct
ively suspects the individual, mini or woiiimi, who, its u matter
of principle, refuses to i'ilit.
ll'elp must come, not from the individual, who refuses to
fight, hut from the individual, who is not only willihir, under
certain cireumstanees to fight, but who has fought" for his coun
try in the past. In other words, from the war veterans, from
those who oppose war, because they know what war means, be-eaiit-e
they arc convinced not only of its horror, but its futility.
That is why we regard the following article written for Me
Call's Magazine by (.'apt. John V. Tliomason, .Jr., of the I'. S.
Marines, who saw active service in the World War, as of such
outstanding importance. It is written not from the standpoint
of a pacifist, but from the standpoint of a two-fisted scrapper,
who was in the thick of the muss, at Chateau Thierry, was
wounded in action three weeks later, and who was cited for
bravery at liallcnux Wood. J '
Here it is: .
Most of the men who went to war served obscurely, withdrawn
from .the high places where thu statesmen and the generals or
dered events. They were told, It is for France, Invaded. Or for
England, whose honor and presently, whose life is at stnko.
Or it is for Old Herman Uind, stifled by n ring of foes. Or for
' Mother Iltissia Holy Russia. Or Ilnlln rtiidentln! Or, 11 Is In
make tho world safe for Democracy. So they fought, obediently
and valiantly, and with amazing patience.
Now, the years between have made dim the memory of many
thingB: the old war cries sound far-off und strange; and there
are divided opinions as to what it was all about, exactly, nnd aa
. to whether the rewnrds of victory wero In keeping with tho sacri
fice, l'ut the men who fought, and the world after them, bave
drawn from their battles the knowledge of tli3 universal decency,
the honesty and the worthiness of the common man.
The soldiers have this knowledge first, for their duty takes
them to the point of contact. The enemy is no longer the fear
some -creature of propaganda, about. whoso lust and cruelty and
evil courses all the stories aro told. Ho Is an Individual who
shoots at you, personally, and you are armed, yourself. Presently
you seo him lying dead, surprisingly small and crumpled, and nut
fierce, with the look on his dead face that you saw on your com
rade's face, who fell back yonder. .
With no lessening devotion, you can respect the man you fight,
because 1 e believes In something, of his own. One of you must
be beaten: and there is no second prize in battle. Hut after it
1b over, you can meet on common ground. -
All the authentic veterans that I have known are extremely
peaceable folk, moderate and kind or their opinions of the men -who
fought them. The hoiie of the world is that the lessons of
decency nnd tolerance which one generation lenrna from lis war
may be transmitted to the next. And when the unblooded chll
. tlren roullzo that the people across the border, barring minor vari
ations In language and uniform nnd local cusloni, are milch the
same klhd of folks, then, J think, we enn solve our problems by
discussion lather than by killing off tho misguided fellows who
disagree with us.
SAFETY ON
IT is gratifying that the automobile associations and clubs' are
devoting much attention to an investigation of the basic
principles of safely and responsibility in the operation of motor
cars. The automobile is still in coniparajive infancy, from the
standpoint of traffic safety, and, as ;n the case'of the railroad
and other nieclrtinical inventions, is at times" destructive of life
and property in this preliminary stage. In the ease of the
automobile, as with rnijroad and factory machinery, progress
will be made not by prohibiting the inventions but by. minimiz
ing as far as possible their injurious consequences. '
After years of improvement, railroad accidents were brought
down to very small percentages. 3t will hc. .thq amo With the
motor vehicle. ' . ' ' . ; ' '..'"'' ' ' .
Prevention of accidents and the solution of traffic problems
have many strictly engineering features. Hut Ihe'human and
regulatory aspects are just as important.; . (Iradually the law
must, close down not only upon the rcc"l(less luittipou the finan
cially irresponsible driver. 1
One fact emerges crystal-clear; the impelling necessity for
substantially uniform regulations in these matters. No longer
is automobile traffic intrastate; it moves across boundaries at
will. Yet traffic laws treat the problem as strietlv intrastate.

HOW (UltLK GKT TOLTJII
A newspaper special from Ur
bana, HI., announces a great dis
covery of -Thomas A. Clark, dean
of men at the University of Illi
nois. IrufoHur Clark warns tho
callow 'freshmen
to be sure to put
on their heavy
underwear pretty j
soon now, 'catiKc
last winter qul'n j
a number of the
preoiuus Infants i
who f o o 1 1 s h!y j
wore fllniHy un-1

ther had to entri
thi' hisiltul. The little boys murti
not tliluk they can do as tho eirls
do. Not at all. The co-eds have'
built up their "reai-stance' by many
years, oh. I dare say ax many a
three or four years In some cases,
of chasing around in the winter
time with nothing mentlonable on
under their coats. So If mamma
or papa has neglected to warn tho
dear children about this, the dean
reminds them now that this wear
ing of scantU's in the whiter Ik n
new fad, and the timorous tike who!
tries It Is likely to find himself!
sick abed. !
So that's the way llllnl glrlti
get so tough.
Alung with this illuminating an-j
nouneemcnt of Dean Clark's dis-i
co very a reader who likes humor
kimkI.1 a corner from a merchant;
advertisement. I take it, which
gives the public a daily health inU
to-wit, that the wearing of fur
garmcntH (oo early In the season
tend.s to cold because the body be
comes overheated. This also an
plies to wool clothing, the merchant
informs the public Perhaps the
merchant sells only cotton or silk
thinuH.
Well. I reckon men and .women
alike do ninny foolish things, but
the wearing of woid clothing or fur
Kiirment.N really has nothing what
ever to do with one's health If
one h foolish enough to wear sucn
thlngH when they arc uncomfortable-,
all right. Lei him enjoy him
self. It can't hurt his health.
.hist ns truly be It said that if
fellow prefenH to ease through the
cold spoil in a dainty bit of nain
sook of sheer whaehaoallit. that's
his pleasure and nobody's, funeral
at nil. , . ' j - '. ; .
This explanation the merchant
gives for the diro effects ho ns
oriboH to wearing a. Cup coat' too
early In tho season, namely, thut
It "overheats. " Is the veriest bunk,
old grandma stuff. , ' .'. ., :

It isn't, n o nuttier how warm yon

It? Krom thut point on the. phil

out for herself. No doubt the ten
der children in the freshman class
at 1. of I. will comprehend at oneu
Just how one takes cold. In th il
way. Probably "sudden k-htlllnV?
Is implied. ' ; ;
There Is only one precaution A
sensible person need ever take
about that. If you get "warmed
j up" by physical exercise, then be
careful about any sudden chilling,
' for that is likely to leave your nius
1 etes lame and sore. Hut if you get
I warmed up by excessive clothing
or In an overheated place, the dis
comfort "yon feel light then is pos

full from the experience Cool oft
as suddenly as you like. It Is per
fectly healthful to do so.

a red rose would seem the same
color as a green or blue object.
That is why a test for color blind
ness Is ncceisury for. every person
who would drive an engine, or .1
motor car or other vehicle. Tho
make-believe vision tests applied
by tho clerks In auto license bu
reaus usually omit 1 tho red nnd
green Ihrht test, and many a color
blind Individual gets by, simply by
following the moves of other driv
ers who mind tho traffic signals.
Color blindness may be congeni
tal (present at birth) or acquired.
Among railroad men the excessive
use of tobacco Is a rosocgnlzed
cause of acquired color blindness.
Four per cent of all mules are more

addition of chicory, of which, i
think, you have approved. Mis.
II. M. A.
Answer. There. We clean for
got the chicory the last time we
served coffee here. It is all right
to add a spoonful or two of chic
ory If you like: it seems to me
to improve the flavor, though not
enotigh to bother with it. Grind
your own coffee when you're ready
to brew H. Throw as much ground
coffee as you like Into the pot with
coJd water. Let stand a while cold
if there is time; then add bit of egg,
stir up. set pot on fire, watch po:,
yank off from fire Just before it
boils up and over, let stand a few
moments, and serve. How mucn
coffee, water, egg, or chicory to
use Is entirely a matter of Indi
vidual taste. Tho big secret is to
see that the coffee does NOT boil.
If you can sniff the aroma of cof

the cook Is spoiling another day
for you.

The visitor cume walking
through tho Held, and as he came
the grass began to blow and the
air grew very much colder.
As he saw the
Little Black Clock
ho waved and the
Little HIack Clock
waved back. Then
John and Peggy ,
waved. -
As the. visitor
came near, car-
rying a suitcase
In each hand, he
HHld, "Hello."
Just s a y i n g
that. one worxl
seemed to send a'
gust of chilly a'.r
right t h'r o u g li
them.
The Little IJIock Clock nsked
him to sit down. He wus tall and
thin. His clothes looked rather
blown and untidy as if they wcro
not completely dry and had nevor
been pressed.
From his hat were feathers that
looked like they .might have been
made of frost, and at the edges of
his cuffs were trimmings that re
minded Peggy and Jim of , small,
thin Icicles. ;
"Hello." he said again. John
and Peggy said 4'Hello," too.
"It was nice of you to ask me
to stop here for a bit, and take ."t
rest before continuing my journey,"
he told the Little Hlack Clock.
"It's a nice morning, isn't It?" Ire
asked.
The children knew from this that
the Little Hlack Clock, had turue.l
the time back to tho morning.
"I have to come to get every
thing ready for my family." the
visitor went on. "You know how
people choose someone to go ahead
and open up a house that has been
closed for a season, or someone
has to open up a school after the
holidays well. I'm somewhat like
that. Only I'm very, very differ
ent." "C.ooilness:" said the Little Plack
Hlock. "You will certainly puzzle
John and Peggy. "Won't you ex
plain yourself more clearly?"
"Surely,' came the answer.
And he did.
