A LL. over the country thie morning Americans halled with deep tatirfaction and relief the news that Federa) euthority has taken the firet definite etep to stamp out sedition of the sort that hee shown iteelf in the sinister activities of 1.

The Federal Attorney General promises that wherever the evidence warrants indictments end prosecutions will ewiftly follow. New York notes with special satisfaction that I. W.

Striving to de-Americanize New York wage- earners has come to be recognized by the soclety’s expert agitators as an unprofitable job. Yesterday's action of the Department of Justice should have im- mediate and far-reaching effect. It makes territories of the United Bates look ominously unsafo for pro-German propagandists and all preachers of sedition. ——___ 4. ARCH ENEMIES OF PEACE. “H’ WHO, from the standpoint of peace, condemns Mr. Wilson’s note has sold his soul to the war devil and does not wish pefice, from the Hungarian viewpoint. There- fore he is the enemy of peace.” No wonder the Imperial German press is disgusted with Hun- arian newspaper editors who thus dare to imply that human beings within the territories of the Central Powers are using the intelligence God gave them to look beyond the precepts of Prussianism. The fact remains, however, that all the blare of scorn and Gefiance with which autocracy’s publicity agents greeted President {Wilson’s rejection of the Vatican peace proposals has failed to prevent the message from reaching those to whom it was addressed. What is more, evidences multiply that in many quarters the Meuton mind to a significant extent was prepared for the message and ready to react to the stimulus of what it suggested. Even in Germany iteelf the Imperial press was inable to conceal the sudden further leap of liberalism which came like a galvanio response to the President’s note. -—-~ Hungarian understanding of the message was to be expected. But the Magyar editor puts it in a form for all nationalities: * le who condemns Mr, Wilson's note has sold his soul to the war devil and is the enemy of peace. With ever-increasing certainty the hope of ending the conflict in the establishment of a lasting and well-guarded peace is seen to He in ‘the plain talk of people to people. The worst enemies of peace are, therefore, ministers, mouth- pieces, and inspired organs of autocracy whose essential function is to interpose themselves when the suffering, overburdened millions of —_——-+- TIMES AND PERSONS. ar-wrung nations grope for some basis of human understanding. «Who have the same effect.

But the (National Security League has adequately summed up the cause of them in its summing up of Mayor William Hale Thompson: In our opinion he is a disloyal citizen, In his words and actions since the outbreak of the war he has adhered to the enemies of his country, giving them aid and comfort.

(The New York Evening World), YOUNG girl writes to me as follows: “I have @ very good friend who has nothing to talk about to any young man. She isn't very pretty; but she is not stupid. “She is now about to graduate from @ well-known business schoo! with high marks. Bhe lives with her parents, and has two older brothers and one younger sister, If her brothers bring their friends to her home it is always the same—nothing to talk about. “There is no reason that I can see for this, for she is very compantona- ble with those with whom she asso- clates. If you can think of anything that can help my dear friend please write something in The Evening World, “Perhaps tf something t printed in the paper she will take the bint and 6o make her as dear to others as she is to me.” ‘The trouble with this girl in quee- tion, Is being too self-conscious, When she ts with close friends she docs not think of herself, and therefore IS herself, which 1s the first requisite of arousing interest. She does not overreach to pleaso and having @ nice disposition makes those close to her readily find her “companionable.” How many thére are who practi- cally go through life tongue-tied. You will find them in many places, They are the wall-flowers on the dance floor and the Cinderetlas of the home. ‘ How many heart-breaking hours could be averted if a girl would only practice a Uttle FORGETFULNESS OF SELF. Times without number I have stated in these columns that girls do not need to be wall-flowere nor the sit-by-the-fire variety. Most of the time it is the girl's own mistake in not being able to overcome this self- consciousness. Tho trouble ia that such young wemen are forever fighting the feel- ing of what’ others are thinking about them and alwaye FEAR that they may make the wrong impression. Thies causes them to appear ill at ease, They lose poise and are startled when people talk to them. They are unnatural and not true to a ~ selves. The eastest way to overcome this in to decide that you are not going to mind how the other person is viewing you, but are just gol) to say the things you think that mi! be of interest to others and let the impression take care of itself.

Bachelor Girl Reflections By Helen Rowland Coprright, 1917, by the Prem Publishing Oo, (Ihe Mew York Brening World), \OURTSHIP is like travelling in the front seat behind the windshield; marriage, like sitting in the rear, where you got all the jolts, all the Jars and all the wind, and haven't a chance to jump when the amash- up comes, To make @ man change his mind, begin by telling him how firm he ts, One comfort in being a married woman is that when you sit around the piazza at a summer resort you don't feel obliged to resort to a flirtation with anything in sight in order to appease your vanity: Never worry about having “crushed” a man’s heart at this time of year. Before October it will have sprung MAL mow lane. right back into shape again, dearie, A bachelor’s idea of Heaven is @ place where he will never be bored; a married man's, a place where he will never be nagged, “found out” or made to wear evening clothes, Alas! there are lots of people in the world whom one has not the pleasure of knowing—and, thank Heaven, also a lot whom one has the pleasure of NOT knowing. If a married pair would consider one another's personal liberty in the matter of mcal hours, habits and opinions as sacred as they consider one another's toothbrushes and table napkins, love's young dream might last for quite a while, To be able to carry on @ summer flirtation with a steady head is an art; to be able to write “Finis” at its natural conclusion with a steady hand is the quintessence of savoir faire and the mark of a thoroughbred, At last we have found something more fascinating than a coat lapel to cry on! What? Why, a shoulder strap, of course! of going shopping—to have the money to shop and not buy anything, for then one realizes one is hard to please, But to go shopping and know you haven't any money to buy anything, THEN a woman wants @v- erything ebe sees!” ‘This feminine psychology of not wanting anything when able to buy, and wanting everything when not able to was too much for Mr. Jarr. Ho parried it by asking Mrs, Jarr tf sbe had been taking a ride to get the fresh alr. “No, I haven't,” replied Mrs, Jarr. “T've been down to the depot with Cora Hickett. I chaperoned her. She went to meet young Harold Dilge: You know he has enlisted in the fly- ing corps and he may have to go to training camp any day now.” “Wasn't he going the day that you went down to the depot with Miss Hickett to see him off?” asked Mr. Jarr, “He won't go for a week, but Cora’s mother doesn't like Harold Dilger. She thinks Cora is wasting her time on @ young man who 18 going to the war and she won't let him come to the house, And Cora came to me crying, and I thought if Harold Dil- ger was manly and brave enough to enlist in the flying squadron ne de- served that much. So I went to the depot with Cora to meet him, I don't care what Mrs. Hiokett says. She wants Cora to set her cap for ack Silver because Jack has money Np you know as well as I do that Jack Silver 1s @ confirmed bachelor, and any girl who bothers with him wastes her time!” “Where was Harold Dilger going if he wasn't going to the aeronautt- cal training camp?" asked Mr, Jarr. “He wasn't going anywhere. Cora meets him at the depot twice a week,” Mrs, Jarr explained, “Ig he a travelling salesman?’ Mr, Jarr inquired, “Certainly not," aid Mrs, Jarr. “Mrs, Hickett won't let him coms to the house, 60 Cora meets Harold at the depot. Lots of young people meet there.” . “I never knew the depots and ra!l- road stations generally were lovers’ Janes before,” remarked the puzzled Mr, Jarr. “There's a lot of things you don't j know,” said Mrs. Jarr, “When you without @ chaperon, can meet her young man ac a depot and can say a word, even if tag eee geen.” ° “Seen; how?
