(Established 1S73) THE SUNSHINE OF PEACE. PEACE! The world has been upside down. Mankind has been killing off its best lives instead of conserving them. It has been shooting its wealth away in the roar of guns and bombs. Its hands have been de voted to destruction. Its wheels of progress have been stopped. Its attitude toward almost every thing in this life has undergone tremendous changes. Even its thoughts have been twisted and warped. Peace finds the world in chaos. Before us is a new beginning, with revolution, in large or small degree, probable in every one of our economic, in dustrial, and social relations, and Solomon himself vWe America pays her share of the price in thou sands of precious lives and enormous treasure. Clearly our first problem is to reclemocratize America. No peace time president should hold the auto cratic power wisely and justifiably granted Presi dent Wilson as a vital necessity in the prosecution of" war business. It was a test of democracy to seek to draft twelve to fifteen million men. It was a test of democracy to empower a board to say how little sugar and how much bran a hundred millions of people should eat.

But through the confusion and uncertainty our Of the huts with their warm fires burning of duty appears clear. must rebuild the house in which we live more wisely and permanently. We must have a house to fit all of a common fam ily, not one so cramped by caste architecture that a large part of the family must sleep and eat out in the woodshed. We must scrub the blood off our doorstep and sweep the garbage of hate from the comers of our rooms. Where the battlesmoke has blackened the windows, doors, and furnishings, we must repaint in colors of beauty. And we must dedicate the house to the bloodily demonstrated principle that right is might and shall prevail, in peace or war. Yet, although peace finals our land undevastated, white paper spaces with nice long words, spell there are very few other nations among the late belligerents that are confronted today by greater problems. Nations like Germany, Belgium, Aus tria and Serbia, for instance, begin the new order with little or nothing. Common misery produces a commonalty in the human aninutl as well as in others. We begin with our political, economic, and industrial factions practically intact, awake, and vigorous. But the great war efforts in com mon have brought us closer together and we will settle every one of our problems right if we hold fast to the fundamental principle that all men are equal, equally entitled to consideration and opportunity.

The Almighty had not only enabled us to stop the frightful destruction and suffering, but he gives us peace as a glorious opportunity for progress. Let us rebuild our American house with the determination that its foundation shall be equality. Let us try every new sill and joist with the plumbline of exact justice. Let us plane/ sandpaper, and paint as copartners in patriotism. Let us partition for apartments for the whole family with private parlors for none. Let us put about it all the beautiful flowers of brotherly love we possibly can. And that house will endure. It will endure as the highest example of human wis dom and civilization. It will stand as a radiant monument to our dear ones who laid down their lives or their careers in the cause of freedom, for all, forever. HOME IS WHERE THE BOY IS By Bruce Barton I visited a home where a service flag hangs and while we ate we talked of the boy who is over there. "I wonder if he is cold tonight," the mother said, "I wonder if he has a place to warm him self and dry his clothes and something good to eat." "What wouldn't I give to be with him," she said and we were silent, knowing her heart. But I thought of the Soldiers of Friendliness who that very night would crawl out across No the great lecturers and preachers and actors and motion pictures that are over there. And I thought to -myself: "There is a*differ ence between this and every other war. For. when the boys have marched away before, the influence of their homs has stopped at the front gate and could go no farther. Home is where the boy is. From every town and village the lines of helpfulness run out. And no boy leaves his home behind him: step by step it travels with him, financed by the folks behind him—a token of their love. Situation wanted: By large'number of military experts, able to draw lines on maps, cover vacant names of Flemish villages or qualify as fortune tellers' assistants It is hereby moved, seconded and carried that the name "spiz" is as objectionable as the disease, and th^t "flu" henceforth be the standardised vocable throughout these United States.

Herfc-s United States Senator Kenyon actually proposing a budget system to avoid waste of public funds! Police will aid the campaign to check influenza in many cities. May we soon epect to see patrol loads of germs dashing through the streets? Flu has silenced the gas attacks of the poli ticians, so why blame it on the Huns.

Everything for which America has fought has been accomplished.

They haye earned Jhe best and most that we can give them. An American who will not give all he can is unworthy our noble army and navy and the holy cause for wh ch they fought. It would be a groat mistake to think that the end of the war will diminish-'need of the work of the seven organizations that have done so much for the comfort and welfare -our soldiers and Sailors stop.

Through their tireless energy, thougtfffulness and devotion they have carried cheer comfort and assistance to our m.en.jnd they are worthy of itaMuaaort of every loyal American.

THEODORE ROOSEVELT "Between the close of the war and, demobilization is a period when men at the front will need every thing done for them by precisely such organizations as those for which this drive is undertaken. It would be: a dreadful act of ingratitude if this nation failed in its -duty* at this tifhe and gave our soldiers to believe that we forget them as soon as they ceased risking their lives.

"It's Never Too Late to L'e Sorry," which,, in ppin: of he3rt-felt interest is said to be the most pro nounced hit written hi some time. The song conveys the story of fem inine fidelity, and, although some af firm that the.'text defends the wom an rather, than the man. the sense of uncertainy makes it interesting. Fol* lowing are a few line3 of the-verse: "I watched a sweet rose droop and die For want of rain and wondered why The rain drops when at last they came Could not" restore the ijloom again. You're like the rose, I'm like the Tain, You wanted me and called in vain, And here is a part of the music. It's Never Too Late To Be Sorry i. It'sner-cr too late to be sor IT.....
