Things Have CJianged. -.,
During th? late war., in the month of
March, 1918, England, in fear and
trembling for its own safety, hoisted
the signal of distrress and called upon
America to help win the war.
On Dec 2, 1920, Mr. Bonar Law
said: "I hope it will long be remem
bered to President Wilson's credit that
an affirmative answer came immediate
ly. It was one of the vital factors
in turning the tide of that hour."
Yet after the war is over, Lloyd
George declares the English navy won
the war. But had it not been for
America's quick response when Eng
land was in distress, she would not
now be in a position to give Lloyd
George the opportunity of saying that
England was the greatest empire in
the world and at the height of its
power and in the greatest day of its
glory, and would not now be able
to crush and exterminate defenseless
Irish people in their effort to maintain
the principle of government for which
the late war was supposed to have
been fought.
When. England called on American
soldiers to risk their lives in battle,
England h- 150,000 soldiers in Ire
land that could quickly have been
transferred to the battle-fields of
Flanders. But England was telling
the world that this terrible war was to
avenge Belgium and safeguard the
rights of small nations, and at that
very*moment her cwn military forces
did their utmost to ci ush Ireland's
hope for self-determination and hope
for national existence.
The Anglo-Saxon Humbug. .-•,• •..,
One of the greatest humbugs ever
perpetrated upon the American people
is that which pretends that the Engl'sh
speaking inhabitants of the United
States are all Anjrlo-.Saxons.
During the tercentenary celebra
tion now upon us, every effort is being
made to show that nil the goodness,
all. the greatness, and all the progress
thaythe United States has made since
we separated from Great Britain' has
been due to the Anglo-Saxon'element.
It is the duty of every citizen who loves
the truth, whether he can really say
he is of English descent or not, to take
a stand against this humbug, and to
show that this is not the United-States
of England, but the United States of
America.
Over in England there is not half
as much flub-dub uttered about the
Anglo-Saxonism of the United States
as there is here among ourselves
and were it not for the political ad
vantages to be gained therefrom/there
would be very little glorification over
there about the Pilgrims and the May
flower.
For instance, the correspondent in
England cf the Congregationalist,
the organ of the descendants, reli
giously at least, of the Pilgrims in
this comtry, says in a recent letter to
that paper:
"I w's I could report that the com
memont on had really stirred the
deep waters of our national life. But
the truth would not be in such a state
ment."
^In ether words, the British people
themselves are not bothering them
selves much about the tercententary
celebration of the Pilgrim Fathers
and the waole thing.so far as England
is corvcerned,is an artificially stimu
lated affair.
Of cou se the official classses see in
it an oppoituniy to play at being great
packages
friends and cousins of Americans
But the correspondent just quoted exr
presses his dislike-for some features
of that participation'." For example, he
says that at the Southampton cele
brations, Lord Reading appeared as a
speaker. It was rather ludicrous that
Lord Reading, a Jew, should have
been chosen for the occasion, says the
correspondent, particularly as he con
fessed only a few months ago that he
thought George Washington went to
America with.the Pilgrims! %:,-, '. S
This is on a par with what happened
in one of the .English encyclopedias
about Geroge Washington, once upon
a time. The publication in question
claimed that George Washington was
born England.
There is qufte a rage to make an
Englishman out or George now, but
when he took the" field against the
British there was no such eagerness
to claim him. Anglo-Saxon blood,
now so. often referred to as being
thicker than water, did not prevent
the ruling class of England from going
after Wahington and his associates
with all the power thjsy could muster
or hire.
That the Mayflower Pilgrims were
good and worthy men, according to
their lights, no one wjll deny but to
try to make out that they were the
apostles here of all the good. .that^has
come to America since, is pine bun
combe.
MUTT AND JEFF AT THE RACES.
Those perennial favorites, Mutt and
Jeff, made famous by Gus. Hill, will
be seen at the Turner Theatre, Sunday
Jan. 16. This season's offering is

tous laughter, three hours of solid fun,
mvsic, revelry, surprises, and mirth
are promised. From all accounts this
new Gus Hill production involving
the adventures, pranks, foibles and
rollicking powers of "Bud" Fischer's
famous cartoon creations will be great
ly enjoyed by the many lovers of this
fv nny pair, whose grotesque character
istics and funny actions are known
to every man, woman or child in ever vr
nook and /corner of the woild.
Twenty jingly, humming and whist
ling numbers have been contributed by

Carroll. The cast is a large and cap
able one ^including a beauty chorus
of young misses who are well versed
in the art of singing and dancing.
CLUBMEN ENTERTAIN.
The members of the Concordia Clubj
