ALL ARE OOOa

One of the war dispatches today says that near Gulscard the Fr«nch mowed down and put to flight German "storm troops" which had been freshly brought up*. The "Sitorm troops" do not seem to be living up to their names. They encounter the storm all right, but not te the sense In which their title was conferred on them.

The military system of the allies is wiser. It assumes that each private is the equal, in strength and in courage, •f his fellows. The result is a homogeneous army. The weaker and less courageous soldiers are inspired by their worthier comrades, till every man becomes a potential hero.

The democracies have no need to tpick "storm troops." Every regiment, |every company, is competent to carry ,1 through the work in hand. If there is 5 "storm" work to be done it is not neea-

1

ful to select this or that regiment. Whatever troops are most readily "5 available will serve whatever purpose $• the commander may have In mind.

It is the difference between the autocratic and the democratic appraisal if: of men. Democracy propounds the 4 theory that all men are equal, and works thereon till experience proves that some individuals are "unworthy.

Autocracy is based on the Idea of hu« man classification. Some are flit to rule, some are fit to be fat and idle lunkers. some are fit to be store keepers and ii lawyers and doctors, others are fit only to be serfs. On this basis Prussian SP efficiency has been built. And on this basis Prussian efficiency, is now crumb•j lin*

will give some honwr to the

"storm troops" of 1918, brave men who threw away their lives In a vile cause

f: but history will give no honor to the :.i men who devised the "storm troop" system. Iilkc all the systems of autocracy it is based on fundamental mis^\eonception of the proper utility of huknankind.

s* THE LITTLE THINGS.

A seemingly trifling transaction with the grocery boy at the back door has its effccts for good or evil all the way to the front line trench in France.

The wise buyer plays a vital part of victory. Every pound taken from the transportation system means a saving

s

of men to handle it, of equipment, coal, gasoline and tires. It means more space for war goods, for the delivery wagon, the railroad, the transAtlantic ships and the array trucks ever there.

The nation's "spending money" is in -the hands of the women. Thoughtful .manipulation of the purse strings will hasten the winning of the war. It will •v also have a more Immediate benefit— it will bring down the ever soaring 'v. price of things, because prices are determined by the amount of work re"5 quired from producer to consumer.

An example of this is the fact that some grocers give cash discounts to self-serve customers who come armed r* with their market baskets, thus saving the cost of paper, string and delivery.

A NEW FORCE.

Recognition by the United States of the Cecho-Slovaks as a de facto belligerent government wifl be widely hailed as an act of justice and a further *ign of allied unity. The action of the Washington government follows similar action by the principal entente powers. It completes the process of raising the Cecho-Slovaks to practically full sisterhood in the league to suppress Hunnism.

These newly recognized enemies of the central powers have won by hard, constructive effort the recognition nor/ accorded them. It was they who first raised the entente banner in the disorganized realm of Russia and served first notice on Germany that her illgotten prize on the east would not be left In her possession without a fight. The achievements of the Cecho-Slov-aks in the former empire of the czar constitute one of the brightest chapters of the war from the standpoint of the allies.

The Cecho-Slovaks hate Germany and Austria, and their hatred is born of intimate acquaintance. They know the Hun as a neighbor and oppressor. They fight with the zeal of men long enslaved but now free. It is an act both of justice and utility for the entente governments to extend to them the hand of fellowship and to recognize them as co-belligerents against the common enemies of mankind.

PRACTICAL SCHOOLING.

A. bit of practical education is proposed by the school board of Cleveland|in the resolution to teach pupils at the beginning of the fall term how to avoid the traffic peril at street corners. Crossing city highways is rather precarious business at best, even for individuals of mature mind and conservative demeanor it is double hazardous for lightly skipping children to whom tlie perils of earth are for the moment as unreal as fairyland. "Each year," says a writer in the Cleveland Plain Tealer, "President Thomsen of the board notes, the number of children killed in traffic accidents cqudls or surpasses the number

WE ALSO CARRY ON.

Every word you read about the war makes your purchase of Thift Stamps and Liberty Bonds loom larger and makes one feel a great pride in every patriotic investment he has made.

President Wilson, in speaking to a visiting foreign commission the other day, said: "Our guests yesterday visited the gfeat government shipbuilding pla.nts at Hog Island. They saw there a single yard, with a capacity four times as great as our whole 'shipbuilding capacity the year before the war broke out. They saw more than a mile of shipways, where fifty great ships are In construction at one time. They saw yards so huge that 70 miles of track ar© heeded to distribute the material. There are to be turned out ISO ships in the next year. There should be a huge merchant f?l|1p launched on an average of every 37 hour3 for a year. Now the whole cost of building these yards and this great fleet of ships has been provided, in the last sixty days by the sale of Thrift Stamps."

of victims of the Collinwood disaster, and the beginning of the school year always sees the peril accentuated. Well may the school authorities devote some attention to thte task of reducing this annual sacrifice as far as possible."

The children of school age can be made to realize the fact that heedless crossing of streets puts their lives in Jeopardy and can be taught how simple a thing it is, after all, to watch traffic and crnss practically in safety, a great reduction in such accidents will result. Drivers of trucks and pleasufe cars also need to be reminded that in the vicinity of a school children are likely to be found in the street, and that extraordinary caution on their part will conserve the public good.

AUTOMOBILES USED TO CHASE FLEEING ENEMY

American Forces Have Difficulty

Leave Great Stores.

"Between the Marne and the Vesle the Germans had left great stores of supplies and ammunition because of their ha.sty withdrawal.

The roads on the plateau north of the Vesle were in fairly good condition. although in some places over ravines the Germans had endeavored to destroy small bridges. "Engineers quickly replaced the roads and Americans on foot and on horseback and mule teams, automobile trucks and motorcycles went head-long through grain fields overrun with weeds and passed villages and houses shot to pieces, but nowhere encountering anything of military value.

The plateau for every few miles was dotted with frames of German airdromes from some of which the Americans said the German raiders who bombed Paris evidently operated. Three or four of these frames stand in aviation fields at a score of places. The American officers believe that this plateau must have been tlie principal German aviation site for operating against Paris and the districts in between.

The canvas 'covering for the hangars were taken by the Germans when they retired and tlie wooden frames were so damaged by shell that they are virtually worthless. •Country is 'Cesolate.

Before the advancing Americans in the dc.solate valley of the Vc3lc between Baaoches and Fismette. the Germans burned the freight cars along the railroad and the twisted skeletons of the cars are standing on the tracks. The trees along the roadwa.y between Ra7.ochrs and Fismette had been cut down by German saws and German shells. The stone houses in Fismette have shell holes in their sides and roofs and some were smashed by German bombers who vainly endeavored to drive out the Americans.

Keeping Up With Huns In Mad Flight.

WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES ON THI] AIRNB FRONT, Friday Sept. 6.—(By the Associated Press.)— In their endeavor to keep up with the Germans who are retiring beyond the River AJsne, the Americans have organized automobile machine gun detachments with three inen to each car. More than thirty cars were operating north of the Vesle river early today.

As not much German infantry had been sighted, the automobile machine gunners were uncertain just where the advance might lead them. The outfit has supplies of food and equipment to enable them to keep after the Germans for days.

As the Americans pressed forward it was a different sight than that which had greeted them in their advance from the Marne to the Vesle. From the Vesle northward over the plateau the Germans had cleaned up everything, taking with them all of value or of use and were burning that which they could not move northward or which might be of use to the French and Americans.

Sunday, September 8,

The culmination of Mars in square to Saturn in the seventh house and Uranus in the ascendent at Washington is read as presaging for the autumn quarter many extraordinary events of a most sensational character.

Treachery on the part of a foreign power is foreshadowed, but this will not be of serious consequence.

Persons whose bJrthdate it is will probably meet with much success in the coming year. Young women should be exceedingly discreet.

According to astrology this is an unimportant day in planetary direction. While Mars and the sun are in benefic aspect. Mercury is adverse, but the sway is not a strong one.

This rule of the stars should bring good news from the battle front, but the reports may be of general progress rather than any special victory.

It is a fortunate direction for army officers, who will benefit greatly in the next month.

There is a lucky sign for meeting friends or relatives who may be of service in important matters. New acquaintances made under this configuration should be helpful. .betters written on this day should be sent forth cautiously as they are under an evil direction. It is forecast that a public man will lose place because of some indiscreet writing.

Hospitals have a sign making* for increase of benefits. They who manace them and work with them have a rule making for intense activity toward improvement as well as in routine work.

Nurses have the best possible government of the stars. New rank and honors are presaged for them.
