What sort of peculiarities does one Private Percy R. Starks, third training company, casual detachment, possess? Evidently one like a yoke of oxen, but who i8 it? In June of this year Private Starks was tried before a general court-martial on two charges, specification one and two of the fitst charge being for wilfully disobeying orders to go out and drill at Camp Cody, New Mexico. Specification one of the second charge reads that he had in his posséssion “certain seditions books of literature designed for distribution to the prejudice of good order and military discipline,” which we have been taught to beleve a most serious offense in a soldier. He was found guilty on all specification and sentenced ‘“to be shot to death by musketry,” two-thirds of the court con- cu 5 The case was forwarded by the convening authority with sentence approved, but.recommending it be commuted to dis- honorable discharge, forfeiture of all pay and allowances, and confinement to hard labor during the period of his natural life, signed by the brigadier general commanding. President Wilson thereupon digapproved the findings and, sentence, and ordered ‘“Private Starks will be released from confinement and restored to duty.” A fine association for his loyal companions! Knowing George Creel’s attitude toward Hun propaganda, and aware of the easy treatment accorded by the attorney general to those guilty of sedition, it is wondered which of these gentlemen, if either, interceded for Private Starks. Some country news- papers have been treated with more rigor than that, simply for political criticism of the administration. ¢ 0 A WORD TO CHRISTMAS SHOPPERS AND SHOPS. (New York Sun.) The war over, men coming home from the camps every day by the thousands, thousands more on their way back across the sea, &till other thousands to follow in ship after ship, there never was any doubt that the American people as a whole would make of this the most joyous Christmas of their lives. Theré never was any doubt that after restricting the clothes they wore and the food they ate as their part of helping to win the war the Aniérican people this year would yield themgelves to a great, big burst of Christmas shopping. Now that the government has taken off the lid, giving a free rein to industrial, wholesale and retail interests for holiday trade, there isn’t any doubt that many of the shops are going to be swamped under the Christmas shopping. Our people feel that they will be justified in buying this year somewhat in the enthusiastic man- ner they bought savings stamps and bonds; and they will be. They have learned to borrow money, to buy Liberty bonds. They have learned to go into debt to pay their income taxes. They will be justified, at this time, if ever, even in going into debt to do their Christmas giving. So in this matter of Christmas shopping there must be double preparedness. The shops must have the articles for their Christmas business and they must have the labor to handle it. The public must begin earlier than ever before to do their buying. Let both sides go to it! 0 According to an exchange, a film showing Uncle Sam’s mailing system is being exhibited, it being a Minneapolis pro- duction, and in a account the paper states, “There are many valuable suggestions for the public in the film.” We wonder if there are scenes showing the reasons for long delays in de- livering mail and numerous other things about which the public ig yelling its head off. Can’t kid anybody with a film like that. 3 D The reputation of the former crown prince preceded him to Holland. That country assigned him a home in a small hamlet on the lonely island of Wieringen.
