Germany's Emphatic Demand . The demand of Germany that the United States fulfill its obligations under the Monroe doctrine by protecting the lives and property of foreigners in Mexico, is just. If the Monroe doctrine is to mean a free western hemisphere, then must the United States guarantee peaceful and livable1 conditions in this half of the world. No other nation than this would stand onetenth of the murdering and pillaging of its citizens by any country as Mexico has done to citizens of the United States living within her bord

ers. What American pride and justice has failed to do, European impatience and disgust will accomplish. The United States has very politely been told to do her duty or, by pretty plain implication, she may step aside and one or more nations of Europe will go into Mexico and restore peaceful conditions. Of course, there is another side to the question raised by Germany. For some time the suspicion has been growing that Germany's great naval activity instead of being aimed at England is in reality directed against the United States. As has been pointed out, Germany's population is increasing at an enormous rate every year. The population is too big for the present boundaries of that empire and it is overflowing into other countries. Some 12,000,000 of the best citizens of our own country are Germans or descendants of German emigrants. Now Germany would rather her sons and daughters should find new homes in German colonies. But there are no German colonies worth speaking of. England has felt that the secret of Germany's naval activity lay in her desire to take by force of arms some of the English colonial possessions. Now, however, the feeling is gradually spreading that Germany's real colonial intentions are directed towards South America. In this case she would be preparing for war with the United States as the Monroe doctrine means for European monarchies to keep their hands off South America or fight us. There is a possibility that Germany's righteous demands regarding our plain duty in Mexico may be the beginning of a policy that will lead to the testing of our ability to uphold that doctrine which guarantees the freedom of the western hemisphere. If it does we are, as usual, woefully unprepared for the trial that lies before us. We have allowed Germany to outstrip us in the construction of dreadnaughts, aeroplanes and dirigible ariships. Our army is still inefficient, thanks to being continued as the plaything of the porkbarrel legislators. If Germany's policy should cause war, we wonder how long it wpuld be before Mr. Bryan's two dreadnaughts, Fellowship and Friendship, would be sent smashing to the bottom of the sea ? After 2,000 Years According to last evening's press reports, Greece may seize the whole northern coast of the Aegean sea, a territory that fell by right of conquest to Bulgaria during the recent BalkanTurkish war. During the present war between the former allies the Greek army has driven out the Bulgarians from this territory and now holds it. That Greece may not be able to gain this great accession of territory without a struggle is hinted. Servia, balked by Austria from an outlet to the sea through Albania, in all probability will desire a strip of land giving it an outlet on the Aegean. Such an arrangement undoubtedly will not be

tolerated by Greece without a fight. It would weaken the latter country fatally, as it would divide what would otherwise be a homogeneous Greek kingdom or empire. That Servia could succeed in undertaking to obtain this territory is not very likely. Since Roumania's entry into the Balkan war it looks very much as though King Constantine of Greece is a pastmaster at the game of international politics. Roumania, naturally, would have been very foolish to have failed to take advantage of so good an opportunity not only to gain large additions of territory at Bulgaria's expense, but also to profit immeasurably by assisting in the utter annihilation of her strong neighbor's military strength. If King Constantine arranged for the co-operation of the Roumanians in helping subjugate Bulgaria, then he is undoubtedly sure of a secret ally in case Servia is disposed at the conclusion of hostilities to demand territory that is absolutely necessary to a greater Greek kingdom or empire. Roumania will be no more anxious to see Servia become the strong nation of the Balkans

than she has been to relinquish the opportunity to help drive Bulgaria from that proud position. Greece seems sure of being the strong nation to the south and Roumania apparently is to occupy a like position in the north. After an interval covering more than two thousand years, Greece appears to be coming into her own once more. Over two thousand years ago, Greece was the proud mistress of a great Mediterranean empire. Overthrown from her lofty position she became the slave of Rome and its long line of rulers. Conquered by the Turks in their mighty invasion of Europe in 1453, Greece underwent all the tortures of subjugation common to Mohammedan rule. In 1821 she threw off the Turkish yoke. ' Many years elapsed before Greece again attempted to assert herself. And when she did, disaster overtook her. In 1897 Greece became involved in war with Turkey and was humiliatingly defeated. A strange irony was that King Constantine, who has shown himself to be a great military leader in the present wars, as crown prince was in command of that 1897 Greek army that was so easily overwhelmed. After many centuries another Constantine rules over a Greek country that may not be very many years away from occupying that city founded by the first Constantine, the present

Turkish capital, Constantinople.

THE WABASH

There is a river singing in between Bright fringes of pawpaw and sycamore, That stir to fragrant winds on either shore Where tall blue herons stretch lithe necks, and lean Over clear currents flowing cool and thin Through the clean furrows of the pebbly floor. My own glad river. Though unclassic, still Haunted of merry gods whose pipings fill With music all thy golden willow-brakes! Above thee halcyon lifts his regal crest; The tulip-tree flings thee its flower-flakes, The tall flag over thee its lances shakes! With every charm of beauty thou art blest, O happiest river of the happy West. Maurice Thompson.

PROMOTE WHOLESALE BUSINESS BY TWO WELL KNOWN METHODS

Richmond Is Just Starting to Grow and Is Now in Need of More Wholesale Concerns.

"I see," said Mrs. Martin, '"by the Dark Hollow Weekly Struggle that a lot of chickens in Chicago are turkey trotting." Shucks!" said Mr. Martin, with ineffable disdain. ' That's just another mistake in one of those bulletins that the dinged, crazy department of agriculture sends out. They're always trying to tell us farmers something that's absolutely contrary to nature." The Popular Magazine.

For a thing that springs mostly from badly digested misinformation, public sentiment is amazingly often right. Puck.

A gentleman in a club in Grand Rapids, Mich., had formed the hopeless and harmful habit of taking too much to drink alcoholically speaking before he went home every evening. "How does he know what time to go home?" asked a stranger in the club one night. "It's this way. explained amember. "He goes to the head of that long flight cf stairs leading to the street. If he falls down them, he knows it's time to go home." The Popular Magazine.

By FRANK PARKER STOCKBRIDGE It is hard to find a town so small that it has no wholesale business. There is no town so large that it does not want more wholesale business. The experience of commercial organizations that have made special efforts to build up wholesale trade for their towns, has demonstrated that there is no way in which this desirable class of business can be stimulated and increased so effectively as through the co-operation of the merchants of the town through their commercial organization. There are two principal methods that have been adopted with success

by chambers of commerce throughout the country, in promoting wholesale business. One way is for the heads of the wholesale houses themselves to go out on trade extension trips, visiting their present and prospective customers and thus establishing personal contact without trying to sell goods at the time. If any proof of the value of personal contact in business were needed, the experience of the big cities and small ones too that have conducted these trade excursion trips would settle the question. The other way is to offer special inducements to bring buyers from the retail houses to this town to make their purchases. A very effective way of doing this is for the Chamber of Commerce to arrange to pay the railroad fares of every buyer whose purchases from the wholesale house amount to a given sum. Another way is to arrange with the passenger association that controls passenger traffic in your territory, to offer reduced railroad rates for a given period for buyers. If your town is big enough and the attractions of your wholesale houses are good enough and your organization is strongly enough financed so that you can safely guarantee to the passenger association a reasonable number of passengers within a given time, you will have little trouble, in obtaining reduced rates. "All very well," you say, "but I am not a wholesaler and this does not interest me." It ought to interest you. It doesn't make any difference whether you are

a wholesaler, a retailer, a manufacturer, a professional man, a salaried man or a wage worker everything that l benefits Richmond benefits its merj chants. ! That is why it is your business to

help build up the wholesale trade of this town just as much as it is the business of the wholesaler. We have in Richmond a commercial organization that is trying to do things for the town. This building up of wholesale trade is one of the things it can do if everybody in the town helps. And even if it did nothing else, it would still be true if you and everyone else who does his share toward making your town's development organization effective, you would get out of it all you put in and more. You want to keep this in mind. too. Richmond has only just begun to grow. I don't care where it is or how far it is from any other place if it in in the United States of America it is an infant. We have'nt any grown-up cities in this country yet. Even New York and Chicago are unfinished tCwns. I was in Chicago a few weeks ago and saw them tearing down a twelve story steel building to make room for one of thirty stories, and they were doing that kind of thing all over the business district. It will be a thousand years yet before the cities of America reach their greatest possible development perhaps longer than that. Every village of today has within itself the possibilities of a metropolis, and one of the things that makes a metropolis is the wholesale trade. The great city of St. Louis owes its growth and its prosperity almost entirely to the fact that it has

been for half a century a wholesale center of distribution for the great Southwest. Yet even with this start over its rivals, St. Iouis nd He f. ganized men have had to fight all the time to hold and increase their wholesale trade. And what they are Uoing in this line is putting dollars directly into the pockets of every inhabitant of St. Louis. You can be a town builder by helping to put the commercial organization in a position to develop the wholesale trade of Richmond.

Palace. For today's feature the Palace offers the big two reel K-B the "Banshee." This wonderfully costumed and staged Irish play stamps the Kay-Bee company as one of the best and most versatile in the world it presents a weird plot, dealing with the simple-hearted Irish peasantry, with its superstition of the "Banshee" a visionary witch-like creature whose very name brought terror to the good people. This picture demonstrates that regardless of theme or country where the plot is laid, the Kay-Bee feature will always stand out with the quality and dramatic rendition which has made K-B films famous the world over. Also is shown a screamingly funny Keystone comedy "The Tell Tale Light."

Paid In Full. "Paid in Full" has made good its name and the Francis Sayles Players are presenting it at the Murray this week in a way that Is a credit to any 6tock organisation. There are only seven characters in the play, however each of the characters are well taken, and shows that the members of this popular stock company are capable of putting on the very best plays. On Friday night this company will celebrate their 100 performance at the Murray this season and a handsome silk program will be given to the patrons.

Ifr. Grouch "I'm going to have th gas range taken out! I went pay another bill this size! It's using the range all day on washday that costs so much." infy Drudgt "Do stop fussing about that bill! Just get your wife a cake of Fels-Naptha Soap. You won't have any more quarrels, because she doesnt need to use hot water, and can save gas." Certainly no woman would deliberately make part of her work twice as hard and take twice as long as is necessary. Yet that is what the woman is doing who clings to the old - fashioned way of washing clothes. r e 1 s - N a p t h a Soap will do all the hard work, will get the dirt out of the clothes without boilingor hard rubbing, in half the time, and in cool or lukewarm water.

The Man From Home. Booth Tarkington and Harry Leon Wilson, both prominent in the realm of literature, are the authors of "The Man From Home" which the Francis Sayles Players will offer at the Murray theatre the week of July 2S. The play has broken all attendance records in New York, Chicago, Philadelphia and Boston. The scenes are laid in Italy and the principal character is an Indiana lawyer who handles some delicate situations in an able manner. It is considered one of

the best efforts of either writer.

When the wrapper is removed the same signature appears on both sides of the bottle in red. Parents who hTe used Castoria for their little ones in the past years need no warning against counterfeits and imitations, but our present duty is to call the attention of the younger genefctkm to the great danger of introducing into their families spurious medicines. It is to be regretted that there are people who are now engaged in the nefarious business of putting up and selling all sorts of substitutes, or what should more properly be termed counterfeits, for medicinal preparations not only for adults, but worse yet, for children's medicines. It therefore devolves on the mother to scrutinize closely what she gives her child. Adults can do
