Those who are direct the Ger- man forces make it evident that they realize the seriousness of the offensive which is being conducted by the Brit h and French appreciate ng back of th wests ady means r armies not only in loss of territory which they are now occupying but in the effect whi bound to have upon the German soldicrs and the German people as soon as it is un- are unable to checic advance of the allied forces. New aivisions in large numbers, in- me of the best fichting men that Germany possesses, are being i fray in a desperate to hurl back the encmy. At a scrifice they have micceeded s, but they have not nevertheless been able to halt their advance or to regain mueh of the coveted ground. The British in the region of Arras are them persistently with their ced artillery and gradually are they moving forward and galning possession of the vantage points which have been relied upon to insure the holding of the much talked of Hin- denburs line ing ahead with the same co while the death list of the Germans rolls up in appaling numbers. Try as thes will the kaiser’s divisions cannot stem the tide that is setting against them. It is a Erand tussle for su- premacy but the balance at the pres- ent time hanzs in favor of the allies, ana there is 1 many can change it The French are mov- istency tle to indicate that Ger- THE IRISH QUESTION.

REORGANIZING MEXICAN GOV- ERNMENT. In view of the interest which this country takes in Mexican affairs, be- cause the republic to the south is a neighbor and one of the nations in the western hemisphere, the people of the United States are anxious for the time to come when order of a per- manent character will take the place of the revolutionary conditions which have prevailed there for the past sev- eral years. For that reason-new attention 1s ai- récted to the efforts which are being made in that country to brins about a better handling of its affairs, and particularly ~to the announcement which has. been made that Henry Bruere, a well known New Yorker who has had much to do with affairs in that municipality, has been called to Mexico City by Carranza for the pur- pose of reorganizing ‘his sovernment. It is not surprising that Carranza has come to the realization that there is need of reorganization. TIt-1s a step which cannot be undertaken any too soon. That Mr. Bruere is qualified to give Carranza good advice in re- gard to such changes as ought to be made In order to establish the most effective movernment cannot be ques- tioned, but it will be interesting.to note what sort of a reception will be given to such -suggestions as Mr. Bruere may make. If there is a will- Ingness to accept Mr. Bruere's advice, and there is no reason to belleve but what he will glve Carranza his best, the effort which the Mexican president is making. should bear excellent fruit, and for the good of Mexico, the wel- fare of its people and the rebuildiig of a badly torn country it is to be hoped that the greatest success will attend this undertaking. THE RUSSIAN CRISIS. From cresent indications, certain at least of the troubles of Russia bid fair to be adjusted by the creation of a coalition government. With the rep- resentatives of all the parties in touch with and having a hand in the running of the government much of the mis- understanding that has been prevail- ing in the recent past ouzht to be eliminated and- with -the acceptance of the policy of the new government by the radicals the prospects are good that such wiil result. Some idea of the uncertainty which has existed in the minds of the peo- ple of Russia and particularly those in the army is furnished by the dec- larations of the army generals to the effect that the soldiers had gotten the idea that the new government was not in favor of offensive warfare. It ha haqd the effect of destroying au- thority and ruining discipiine but that his condition would be overcome by the forminz of a coalition govern- ment which they not only favored but vrged is generally admitted. The changed attitude on the part of the workmen's and soldiers’ dele- gates and the naming of members of other parties to the ministry has al- ready had the effect of bringing about the recall of their resignations by certain of the Russian generals and the announcement that other impend- ing resignations would not take place. There are reasons for believing that the new government has been greatly strengthened by the loan which has been made to that country by the United States. This change in the Russian situa- tion is therefore gratifying. It must cause Tuch relief at home and it cer- tainly does among the nations of which Russia is an important ally. If the real crisis has passed Russia is to be congratulated. EDITORIAL NOTES. The man on the corner says: One doesn’t have to travel far to fing we- man nature in all its ramificatrons. The call of the kaiser for his Amer- ican dentist may be preliminary to the recognition on his part that he must soon bite granite. Now that the general assembly has adjourned it is zoins to be a trifie hard for a good many residents of the state to settle down to the conduct of their personal affairs. With one congressman declaring that it will be five weeks before there is action on the revenue bill, it looks as if that body didn't understand the meaning of speed. When the announcement is made that no more Zeppelins are to be built. in Germany, it is impossible to look upon this otherwise than an ad- mission of faflure. By a new method the Germans are planning to raise the ships which have been torpedoed, but what will they do when they encounter the American censorship? It is all right to complain about the cool weather, but those who are doing the most talking on that sub- ject will be the first to register a kick just as soon as it begins to warm up a bit. If 1t is true that Turkey Is willing to give up its control of the Darda- nrelles so that Russia can have full and free use thereof, the Sick Man of Eu- rope must indeed be in a precarious condition. With the withdrawal of 43 divisions from the Russian front, Germany ap- pears to be satisfled that its eastern neighbor is in no mood to put up a fight, but what a surprise party theve would be if the new government should suddenly start an offensive. It is doubtful if a man can be a Gecent Christian without health. In mortal life everything seems to de- pend_upon it, to_be discolored without it. Sickness represents violated law. just as truly as dyspepsia is the re- morse of a guilty stomach. We are not taught as we should be that the preservation of health is a moral and religious duty. Think of a professing Christian slopping around with wet feet, thinking he is within the law and invoking God’s love n he is Dlast the best zift the Lord has siven him. A sound mind is the ta- ernacle uf a sound body, and is above price; and being temperate. in all things is the price of keeping it. Some people are made invalids by lack of exercise. and some by lack of sense, these last being driven to insanity or suicide by their lack of self control. When health has been squandered| there is nothing left to be enjoyed, since there is no pleasure without it. Health is not preserved by. prayer, but by God’s sunshine and pure air, and bodily exercise. Have you noticed when vou walk in the path of kindliness you do not-have to carry a gun or yearn for peace, for you have found it. There is no good reason upon earth why people- should- not be kind except-that in their blind- ness they repudiate wisdom. Kindness is not inspired by a secular education or to be bought with gold. It is of the heart mot of books, and the one essence which is of the kingdom of heaven. It stands closely related to charity and it discounts to a degree both faith and hape because it rep- resents divine action, as charity rep- resents divine mind. Kindness is the child of love—the equipment of an- gels. Kindness is cooperative and Where exercised comes back like an echo of the voice, not in_the fulness perhaps, but true to quality. Conflict always marks its absence. Christ was the embodiment of kindness and. the world has never been able- to put an indellible stain upon Him. Have you ever asked yourself: “For what avail the plow or sail, or land or life, if fresdom fail?” Our opportuni- ties, our privileges, our strength of character, our joy and well-being in every direction, depend upon our free- dom. When, freedom is menaced how can any free-born soul remain passive? It is doubtful if any man loved free- dom or peace more than Abraham Lin- coln, and when he met the represent- atives of the confederacy and it was agreed not a word of that conference should ever be put upon paper, it is recorded that he asked permission to write one ‘word ;and; having obtained permission, he wrote - “Unior,” tiie word nearest:and- dearest - to -every American heart, hoping the pscych logical effect would be to bring home to America’s recalcitrant sons a ra- tional picture of peace and progress and prosperity. No heart there was then receptive to the magic word which would have saved- our brethren many future woes and which would have made us a united, free and happy family. This great emancipator be- lieved in freedom. “No man,” said he, “is good enough to govern another man without that other’s consent.” It is this mutuality, this sovereignty ‘of the individuai we all stand for. If freedom should fall, of what avail is all the rest? ¢ It has been remarked that occasion- ung man hds so much com- mon se that a college education doesn’t ‘unfit him for a useful career. A college graduate who doesn’t realize he isn't it, but that he only represents preparedness in its days of verdancy and inexperience starts with an. em- barrassing handicap. The voutn who prides himself upon his diploma more than upon his grasp upon knowledge as an instrument of skill, usually be- comes. more noted for “the front” he puts up than for his forensic force or intellectual achievements. The coliege graduate who is conscious of the sac- rifices his father and mother made to have him fitted to fill a larger sphere in life than they were capable of fill- ing, and realizes their foresight and ambitions forms the cornerstone of any intellectual structure he is capable of raising, has laid the foundation of the finest possible character and career and is sure of success. We all owe an unredeemable debt to those who have striven before us. No man can tell why the average man would rather pay $10 for a fish- erman’s outfit than to pay $5 for pew rent; or why a professed Christian finds more joy in paying $150 in law to have his own way than he can muster up for the payment of $25 ta demonstrate the beauty of the golden rule. To speak the truth the cave man —the savage—still has a strong hold upon most of us, and despite our pre- tenses reveals himself- at times and places to. show how thin the veneer of civilization is. Many of us can con- form to the conventionalities as easily as a tralned dog can perform his stunts; but when we are confronted Wwith a'real test of character and ought to be confident and calm and forceful we are shrinkers. We do not want to Dbe tested. We want to be praised—to, be recognized at our own éstimate In- stead of shown up by the standard of manhood. We are not what we think we are, but what our action showe we are. What do you know about one today being worth an eternity of yesterdays? That depends I guess wholly upon the character of the yesterdays. The value of vesterdays depends upon what we put intc them. A slackers yesterday may be a_ bauble while the yester- day of a_deyeloping soul may glow with goodness and. spiritualty. Our vesterdays are just as good or just as worthless as we are. Today is_ an open opportunity—vesterdav may have been a lost opportunity of it may be concreted evidence of our growth and promise. Yesterday ~is a photo- sphere of time upon which our color is reflected, and many of us have as many colors us we have days. I can imagine vesterdiys ns black as night and as harassing as a guilty con- science; and other yesterdays mir- rowing Christian character as s lake mirrows the ferns lining-its shores or stirring and" viriable like the rain- bow because of their purity and worth. it was Thomas Paine who wrote: "Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but of strong hearts to be firm.

Sunday Morning Talk = TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING. We grasp the pofnt 6f the contention even though the bemevolence of Kaiser. dom o fec'ingly referred to has thus far escaped our notlec. We believe that Germany has taken a potentlally good thing and through distorted per- spective and reckless practice made it an essentially bad thing.
