Already little Willie, otherwise known as the Yellow Kid, eee to grab all the it when e is establi Li when tia tastes are signed, Willie will say: “I did it.” : Let us look at this Willie person a little more closely. : E Was it not Willie who demanded war with Mexico a few weeks ago, cried for it night and day, and finally viciously caricatured the president because he ignored Willie’simpertient commands? Was it not little Willie who tried his puny best to jockey us into a war with Great Britain when the Pa- nama canal tolls dispute was a red-hot issue? K Was it not little Willie who sneered in public at Mr. Bryan because he advocated peace, and was it not in little Willie’s organs that we beheld, each morning, disgusted representations of Mr. Bryan, with eggs laid by the dove of peace entangled in his hair? Was it not little Willie who took that flag saluting incident and printed cartoons of American canon-balls tearing holes through everything Mexican, and who lampooned and ridiculed Wilson for months, nastily attacking his “watchful waiting” policy and trying to make a national joke out of it? 99 OF weeks to plunge this nation I SAME CONDITION HE TODAY, WITH UNEX- AMPLED HYPOCRISY, DE) Hearst stands convicted! newspaper convict him! And today, we find this same little Willie bleating about the crime of war. Today we find him deploring and abhorring the very things he advocated as good and pure and holy only a few weeks back. Today we find him urging that Mr. Bryan (whom he nicknamed Admiral Juice author of “The Prints of Peace”) be sent as pease com- missioner to Europe. Why, what on earth has come over our Willie? Perhaps he has no real estate holdings in Europe. But, jesting aside, folks, disgusting’?

For the big war is the immediate work of men who for years have been think- ing of war—thinking of it with such intentness that their hearts have been steeled against its anguish, its brutalities;) thinking of it till they developed a mania of suspicion, dis- cannot trust, even hatred of other nations, other men—men quite| like themselves | A joining of all peace lovers in a prayer for peace might not halt a single bullet at the time; but the rebound from it would none the s be tremendous. It would stimulate with renewed zeal the world’s thinking for peace; and from thought ‘to action is but tep Into t! atmosphere of battle and slaughter it would put circulating with increased energy the purifying cur gents of better aspirations Because so many of us are thinking in terms of war and getting our ideals stained and gory, it doubly behooves the rest of us to think harder than ever in terms of peace—the peace of justice, of righteousness, of mercy, of fraternity For whether the war be short or long, a time must come when peace will be sought. And when it comes, the better ‘opinion, the better idealism of mankind, should be on its tip- toes to make the peace a just and righteous peace, calculated to help, not hinder, the coming of a better day So if we heed the president's invitation to pray together on October 4, let it be not only for the warring brothers, but equally for wisdom and clear vision for ourselves, that we may see the way to peace when it opens and, seeing it, show others F, le THE SHOE REPAIR MAN “216 Union St--2 Shops—110 Madison f| IN THIS CAR GoT A PAIR OF SCISSORS?
