VERY right-minded American fe definite announcement from the State Department that thc t better yesterday for t! treaty of peace will provide for the public arraignment of William II. of Hohenzollern, formerly German Emperor, “for a supreme offense against international morali treaties.” To ignore the personal element in the guilt of an imperial policy that wrecked the peace of the world, that trampled Belgium into a highroad for armies, that defied all laws of humanity in its methods ‘nd instruments of warfare, that sunk the Lusitania, that made pledges and violated them in cold-blooded, lawless cruclty, would be te outrage justice as Americans understand justice, Persons accused of having exercised acts in violation of the laws and cnstoms of war are to be handed over by the German Govern the sanctity of ment to military tribunals of the allied and associated powers. ‘hat takes care of the agents and the instruments. But the power behind, the sovereignty in whose name the acts were done, was in this case concentrated with special distinctness in ope person. If Germany had triumphed that man would now be etrutting to and fro across a conquered world, claiming full and immortal eredit for the success of a national policy which he for years had made it his first thought to develop and even to personify It is only in ruin God’s chosen, commissioned to use al] means ter, barbarity to any inhuman extreme eagle above the standards of other na If Germany had succeeded he would have been acclaimed as the ene who before all othe: It is only as the cowardly fugitive from a lost cause and a wrecked empire that he abandons his followers and becomes Lhe reluctant, misled victim of their ambitior That he cannot be tried as a crimina! and hanged is no reason for leaving him where he is.

Failing to grasp the fundamental fact that proper planning will save, and not spend, the public funds, and not realizing that unrelated, haphazard effects are wasteful beyond conception, petty officials haggle over the pennics needed to make proper plans while they sacrifice thousands of dollars and the future well-being of thelr communities Ly pro- ceeding without forethought or system, making changes here and improvements elsewhere, with no logical sequence and no apparent relation to each other. “The results are disastrous to the j ublic health, conventence and finances. Proper planning would stabilize values, save much of the cost of necessary improvements, and bring much- needed revenue to the public treasury; would promote publle convenience and give greater safety from accident and fire, and save thousands of dollars by ‘ecting economies tn tran- sit and transportation; would promote health and make Ife more wholesome and the city more beautiful.” ce ission of The above is from the report of the Homestead Cor the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, onc to buy land and build homes with publi these homes on easy terms to Massachusetts workers New Yorkers will readily see that it has no possible significance for this model city, where planning has correl f whose money, afterward selling lated all improvements, perfected convenience, insured adequate housing, kept down rents,! stabilized realty and taxes, prevented speculation and unrestricted building from destroying values in particular sec filled the municipal treasury to overflowing and nx hugger-mugger movement and growth to run up values in one quarter while other|* w that I have a little | studied ae Et ry diab dn ee . pir money want to share my goods | keep boe and 8 i once busy and prosperous district wed whole blocks of empty! wisn my nla tinpes asa pi oe “smiles that m you sad” buildings, boarded doors and vacant window babies ir house than tn any ten| that is pictured In the face of this Nothing but foresight, planning, willing and wise expenditure wn, And the more ther - when k bei oF her Wale } uae ering st etter I'll be pleased.

AR uptown in New York City stands an old house) | which once was in the centre of its own broad iawns) | and was the show place of the neighborhood. Apart | ments and business blocks have crowded around it\ now, until the poor old house has the forlorn, outef- place look of an ancient Quakeress at @ tango tea. is still known to New York history as “The Jumel\\ Mansion.” On the porch of the old Jumel Mansion, nearly a com tury ago, sat @ sick young man scribbling the rough draft of a poem which a million schoolboys were destined to recite for many decades to come. ‘The invalid post was Fitzgreene Halleck. The poem was written im honor of a hero who made good, and whose name to-day might be forgotten but for that deathless verse by an American poet. The hero was Marco Bozzaris (pronounced “Bot-sar-ry"), who fought 80 gallantly for Greece's independence from Turkish chains, Do you re call the poem? Your parents or grandparents will remember it, if they went to school in this country. It begins: “At midnight in his guarded tent” (and it tells of Bozzaris's splendid blow for his country’s liberty). Bozzaris was born at Sull, in Greece, in 1790, at a time when his luckless land was groaning un der the yoke of Turkey's oppression. While Bozziris was still a child be and his family were driven from their home by a band of ruffian Turks. It was.the boy's first glimpse of Turkish cruelty. He never forgot it He vowed to devote his life to the freeing of Greece and to the punishing of her tyrants, And he made good on that childish oath, as you sb The lad grew up in an atmosphere of revolution. America had won Orr her own freedom against fearful odds. Inspired by i Fought tor i our example France tore herself free from the shackles Independence af ‘Greece. of monarchy which had fettered her for so many cen- ier turtes, These examples fired the soul of Bozzaris, He and his fellow patriots formed a secret society for the liberating of Greece, It eeemed a hopeless task on which young Bozzuris had launched his fortunes, But never once did he falter in his purpose to make good his oath, Working by stealth, so as not to arouse too soon the suspicions of their Turkish masters, Bozzaris and his colleagues raised a band of elgh hundred patriots, drilled and armed their tiny army and waited for right minute to strike, ‘The chance came when an internecine rebellion had distracted the ate tention of the Turks. Then Bozzaris and his eight hundred took The fury of their courage infected other Greeks. By crutts flocked to join the revolutionists, A Greek fleet was co-operated with the little army. Successfully Bozzaris met the Turks sent to crush the rebellion, He held the “keystone” city of Miesolonghi against a mighty Turkish force and drove off the besiegers, He foo are for feats of successful which Met Successfully. ¢ brought throngs of new recruits to var > but aroused the admiration of Europe. pathy with Greece waxed so strong everywhere that Turks capture Missolonghi by surprise, since they had not been open fight. An army under the Pascha of Scutuari moved steaithly against the city, Bozzaris heard of the proposed attack and checkmated it in his own audacious way. With a picked body of twelve hundred Sull troops he made a night assault on the He killed the Pascha and thrashed the Turkish Anny. During this night onslaught Bozzaris himself was slain. But not be- fore he won a victory which roused the applause of the whole world and made stronger countries ally themselves with Greece, see. the hu unched and his performed vator not able t iu surprise Pascha's camp. By Helen Rowland Coprright, 1919, by the Press Publishing Ca (The New York Evening World) MAN seldom breaks a woman's heart by some big cruel act; he just gradually wears it out by a lot of little foolish ones, A Most men appear to choose a wife for the force of character and brilliant mental qualities she lacks. A man always winds the alarm clack and sets It | for the finish of whatever be contemplates, from a morning nap to love's young dream. His idea of “luck in love” consists in getting out of a flirtation before he gets too far in it. In olden times, sacrifices were mde at the altar, Perbaps that’s why every bridegroom feels morally certain that he is a lamb being led to the slaughter. hal | Sateen Seas The fasbions in hats and hoisery may change and the styles ta manners and morals may be new from year to year, but a man’s Ideal Woman is the 1830 Model, to-day, yesterday, and forever. When love dies, a woman closes the door of her heart and locks it tm, bat a man closes the door of his heart and locks it OUT. A frank man may be the noblest work of heaven, but he ts as much de trop in feminine society as a woman on a fishing trip. A man may forgive a woman for hating him, but never for loving him, without his permission, Your VICTORY BOND will be your badge of hoor, your affidavit of loyalty, your certificate of good faith, and the undeniable symbol! of your good, hard common sense.
