MEMORIAL TREES.
The unexpectedly large
army may lend additional interest to a national movement
already of large dimension the movement for planting
shade trees as memorials for tallen soldiers. It now ap
pears there are more than 50,000 eligible to this honor,
There will be others before the war is really over and all
the boys are home again.
These heroes come from every section of the United
Statesfrom every city and from almost every village
and hamlet. There is hardly a community in -America,
large or small, to which the

where natural shade trees are so plentiful, we may be in
clined to some other form of memorial for those who
died to make humanity free, but in many other sections
of the nation it appeals with striking force.
The American Forestry Association is having much
success in interesting the various states and cities. It pro-
Doses to give a new significance to the next Arbor my
On that occasion .every community will be urged to plant
a tree in memory of each man it has lost in the war.
. Some cities have already arranged to do this, though
they have not in every case gone so iar as to merge the
tree-planting with the celebration of Arbor, Day. A spec
ial avenue is, expected to be designated in the national
capital for this purpose. It may be called the "Avenue
of the Allies." Chicago is said to be planning a "Pershing
Boulevard." Cleveland has decided to consecrate an ave
nue in one of its parks to this purpose, and plant a tree
for every Clevelander killed, each tree bearing a bronze
memorial tablet.
Many mayors and also many governors of states have
written to the American Forestry Association in -warm
commendation of the plan. There seems no good reason
why anyone should really object to it, and many reasons
why it should be adopted.
Holland says: "The Netherlands government does
not believe that foreign governments whose subjects have
so often had the benefit of Dutch refuge will refuse to
respect the national tradition or to remember instances
when they themselves gave refuge to dethroned mon
archs". that sounds very well, but what Holland forgets,
or never understood, is the kind of monarch she is shel
tering. Salem will have more canneries next year which
means that the demand for fruit will be larger and bet
ter than ever before.

COMING SIDESHOWS.
The future sideshows will be great, I venture to pre
dict; 'twill make an artist strain his pate, their wonders
to depict. The marvels of the olden davs will on the dump
have gone; the bearded dame and kindred jays, the living
skeleton. There'll he an end to tattooed Greeks, Circas
sian beauties, too; and all the boneless rubber freaks will
vanish from our view. I see the barker at the door lift
up his mighty voice: "We've wonders here from every
shore! Come, see them and rejoice! We have in here a
royal Turk, the straight and honest thing! A lot of mon
archs out of work, two kaisers and a king! Such marvels
as are here, I wist, you'll ne'er again behold! Come in
and see the mailed fist that made all feet feel cold. . We
have a pair of 'submarines, the kind the Prussians build;
and you malook upon the beans the German kaiser spill
ed. We have about a million maps that show what Wil
helm planned, and hymns of hate and paper scraps, and
swords to beat the band. Come in, come in, and spend
your time with profit, while you may! It only costs ten

HUNGARY'S NEW AMBASSADOR.
In the appointment of Mme Rosika Schwimmer as
Hungarian ambassador to Switzerland, the . cause of
woman suffrage has been done great harm. No one
woman has done more to bring the whole movement of
feminine advancement into disrepute than this. clever,
brilliant, forceful woman.
Dark, handsome according to her fiery type, with, a
gift for the oratory that sways multitudes, Mme. Schwim
mer rather took by storm those who heard her in this
country before the war. It was she who instigated the
Ford peace ship idea. Nor was Henry Ford, competent
mechanic and executive, innocent as a child of great eco
nomic problems and world affairs, the only big person to
- ifrt onnari-n-nna rst Vioi.
j iail 1HLO acceptance 01 Iier,
Chapman Catt, deceived by
believed her one of the fold.
But the sinister suspicion that she was one of Von,
Bernstorffs accomplices has
the woman s activities since the war began served in any
respect to give the lie to it.
The well-meaning folk who sailed upon the peace ship
have been much laughed at. But they were not blind.
And it was after Mme Rosika Schwimmer began, cautious
ly, to show her hand, that the expedition broke up into
factions and came to nothing. They were peace-loving folk,
but they were Americans, and they were square.
The mere fact that a woman has been appointed to a
high post is not necessarily cause for rejoicing. Women
in high posts should be chosen as men are chosen, for
their fitness to fulfil the duties of such station.
The president's message contained marly good sug
gestions covering the reconstruction period but these sub
jects were treated only in a general way., Congress is
left free to propose and pass measures carrying out the
suggestions and, of course, will now proceed to play pol
itics, wrangle and jaw and do nothing. Some of the mem
bers criticise the president for not telling them, specific
ally what to do, and they would have called him a dictator
had he done so. ' ' . . i;
There is some, talk of -sending a delegation of United
States senators to Europe to hang around the corridors
outside the peace convention and keep their colleagues at
home informed about what is going orii inside. These
"wandering Willie" politicians would cut a sorry figure,
even where everything that
warmly welcomed. Our upper house of congress is becom
ing more of a joke every day. . ,, , ,,, ,

the president and is attempting, to discredit him with our
allied nations. . ' '
