Rather let us ‘continue talking v Peace talk has its origin in Ger- _ , and it is the sort of peace that one may expect issu-| rom beyond the Rhine while Germany holds even one} of conquered territory. It begins and ends with: “No ity, no annexation.” That is not now a basis for peace. R - We find a better foundation for peace set forth in a ec book entitled, “What We Must Know to Win,” written a very thoughtful Frenchman, Andre Cheradame. He says: | _ “To the lying German formula, ‘no annexations, no in- ? ities,’ the allies must oppose the democratic formula, | - that is to say: | > £“Expiation for crime. : “Reparation for damage. “Guarantees against a renewal of war. “Expiation, reparation, guarantees—these three words titute the formula of common sense, of justice, and of , | Until Germany comes across with peace talk based on} her expiation, reparation and guaranty, we shall have to ‘on fighting—fighting harder than before, for no other ce will be more than a scrap of paper and will be merely a forerunner of another and even more horrible war. | Knowing German rulers, we do not believe they will) ecep such peace terms until driven to their lair—until| is shed on German soil and the west front is east) of the Rhine.

Howard Taft. Formerly a radical tionary, Taft is now showing by his actions on the| labor board that he believes in unions, the minimum| and the basic eight-hour day and is opposed to trust nations in restraint of trade. | ~ But, really there’s no mystery about the positive! nges in Taft’s views. Of late, for the first time in his ‘aft has been in close touch with the workings of the| it heart of the plain people. Formerly, he knew the workingman only thru seeing! n pass by with his dinner pail. Now, he knows the man,| jows what’s in his pail and knows how darned hard it was put it there. But, what’s true of Taft, ex-president, is, in degree, | oe, % the majority of us. Many of us are content to around upon the eddies of our own particular little! d with little view of the outside wherein the millions truggling, rising and falling. Mighty few of us actual- know what our brothers FEEL. When the shoe of war pinches you a little take com- fort in knowing that it squeezes the German hoof a lot ‘more. " What's in a Name? A year or so ago we began calling ’em, “Sammies.” Some of ’em didn’t like the name. They said they wanted to be called “Yanks.” And, whenever we didn’t forget and call ’em “Sam- mies,” we called ’em “Yanks.” But now “over there” they have started calling them ys.?” All this confuses us. It’s like having three handles to _ @ pan, one wastes a lot of time trying to decide which le to grab. And before long these brave sons be winners.

With Weston, his faithful valet, keeping the door against the bailiffs, the great beau shaved serenely on. Prince of the Dandies to the last, he finished the job with the utmost care. Then, carefully wiping dry the precious blade and affectionately placing it in its case, he turned to Weston with the command: ‘‘Now let the roguesin.” The razor that Beau Brummell used was a shaving tool of wonderful balance.
