DANGEROUS FOOLERY. A young1 man narrowly scapd lynching by an ar.sry crcv. 1 in Brdclyn. N.

It if. undeniable that there are a sood many lcvatel station.

Yet something ?eem to lnpire young fools with the rtrsirc to preacl nrodl-5.s alarm. All over the country offiria'.H are beins warned by letters and tele0hon rnefsat;5? that certain buildings will W Mown dp at stated hours. Whro th authorities are wis hey are taking no chances, and guards are staMoned at dozens of places to prevent danger anJ Iot. It is right to stiard apalnt the bare chanco rt the varnlnp having been j-lncere. and justified, rut meanwhile the? men are taken from regular posts of puardin? lifo and property, , and burplaries and tratric accidents multiply. In many communities it has been made a misdemeanor, puni.-hable by law, to give a fals- alarm of rire. It DiUht a pood thinpr to make such orfinances ccver fabc alarms in general.

PREST WILSON'S BELATED EXPOSE. Prea't Wllt-on'a appeal to the American people to consider well the league of Nations covenant in the light of truth, now that it is up to a preat national referendum. f"r which the voters must astumc responsibility, should favorably impress every honest and fair-minded American citizen nvor including rer ublican editor and politicians. Pres't Wilson, however, has made, on? mistake, end that one he made two years aeo when, after issuing hi appeal to the people for a democratic senate onl congress, he did not come back with a secend appt-al and -xposo th:- damnable criminal conspiracy, which he knew to exist, and to which he evasively referred, in anticipation of the opposition to nnteriillzation of our war ideal.'; opposition that has j-lnce v. en m.ide manifest. The men who conspired to erect a southern confederacy and overthrow the union, were, no rsj traitors to America as a whole, than are the men v?ho constituting themselves a "senat oligarchy," have undertaken throueh prevarication, misrepresentation, and the spreading of fear, to take over the Americin fovrrnmcr.t, dethrone reason, moral responHibi! ity. ar.d, suatTirp pr.p cf their "stool piyeon?" in the -nhite houe, to pave, the way to rc-erart. th enm of l f 1 perhaps with the United States and areh offender Kxactly as the pre.-ident h.i? said in his appeal. FruFJ-h wis never more rrissiine?,ue than tho United States would b under republim rule, if ruled according to thtr cimpin precept-. Treaties, international obligations, understandings, everything, f.itter about as "mere scraps of paper." even to our shipping agrrt err.ents, when thy ? ind in the way of fat contributors to republican campaign funds. We are facing th autocracy of the plutocrat a truly a? Gerr.-.ar.y ever fell under the thumb of th? military autocracy, cr Kue-sia under the heel of the rroletsriat. Trest Wilsnn had :n mind at the time of his appeal in 1M . th s-tme oligarchy that dictated ths rt-pub'.i-an plitfcrm in Chicago in 1?20 and nominated that party's candidate for the presidencythree month? in advance. TI hid in mind the same, senate olU.irchj-, that flooded Hurope with propaganda befor the Teac conference hid assembled, intent upon destroying America's intTuence. and making the fulfillment d our vows to the world on which we had prosecuted our part in the war. an impossibility. He had in mind the unscrupulous and un-American cabal in the eer.atf that signed a "round robin" and tent it to Tariv desperate at the consideration that was being given the American president by foreign diplomat, and at the suece lie wis having In moulding them int.- an ailiinc. to keen faith with the world. II had in mind the unmanly, unprincif led. and un-American gar.g of s.er.atoml huhbir.d':. wh couldn't wait to have the tre.ity and League cov--r.ant placed before them frcm an authoritative eourcf, but employing their underground conr.ctlcns with the house of Hoher.zo'.Iern, secured fio.ii uch enemy hand a draft of these documnts, inonpUta, and inaccurate, which they had read into
the Conpr ssier.al Hcord before th president hil returned home with th certified text. The president could have told the American people in 191s. and should have told them specify, whit brand of conspirators were seeking control of the ser.ate and tho rcngrtss. and the penalty thu v. would pay. and whih w now have paid i.i consuinption of poison, in national unrest, and international di.-::r.ier. by virtue of the popular failure to" hred the appal of that hour. Hi r'cer. appeal is merely belated by two years. He speaks today in retrospection instead of anticipation, but th" cards were stacked, even that long ago. and by no less moraüy traitorous hinds than were thoe of Gov. VVLe of Virginia, Robert Toomb? of Georgia, or Jefferson Davis of Mississippi. Anything that Wilson hater? may nay today, aupers merely fot the salt of truth smarting beneath their dirty hides. It is just another l'russianecque Americanization of the Hohenzollern ' Gott .Strafe Wilson. Three years ago we fent people to J ill for preaching the gospel that they are preaching now. Today they ak us to elect them ?o public office; ;he one who has just escaped from his front porch, we mean not the more manly one still incarcerated at Atlanta.
TRYING PANACEA OF WORK. German conridence In generalization ia unshaken and trust in obedience to all demands Of generalization vhen undertaken in the interest of national prosperity is as firm under the republic as when the Ilohenzollerns gave orders. Democratic Germany has substituted univeital work service for universal military eriee for all within the former military .'igeand expects a more willing response, although tho history of compulsory labor does not contain much that is encouraging. The idea, of the ministry of economics ii that if Germans between certain ages were willing to glv a certain number of years to arbitrary military service, from which they gathered nothing hut promises, they should be more willing to contribute one year's work .service, the results of which the ministrj- believes cannot fall to be beneficial to individual citizens and national welfare. Except for the difference in actual occupation the law proponed by the ministry, for which aprroval by the reichstag will be asked, is somewhat similar in its conditions to the old mil tary servieo law. For one full year all citizens between certain ages are to be subject to work service at whatever occupation assigned by official judgment. The scheme, is the first of tho preparatory steps for tho complete reconstruction of Germany in which every able-bodied citizen is expected to cooperate. Vhether the law will include women has not been determined, but in view of the short.? go of male labor power it Ls possible Germany is one of .the few countries in which such a plan may bo tried with any hope of success and results will nöt be without strong interest for all nations.

WAR'S DISCARDS AND THE LEAGUE. The breakup of the Austro-Hungarian empire and the revolution in T.'assia 1 ft half a million war prisoners without a government to care for them. The swift changes in power kept the governments engrossed in problems it home, with little thought to spare for lost, war prisoners. Now the ritlfttl plight of this half million has engaged the attention of humanitarians. The American Ited Cross has contributed $1.000,000 and various governmental agencies other sums to equip rnejujs for restoring these unfortunates to their homes. These half million souls, good enough for "cannon fodder" once, captured by the enemy, have been allowed to languish since November, 191S. in alien lands under heartbreaking conditions. These prisoners of war are victims of the war's aftermath. It is a reproach that their repatriation has been fo long postponed. And why was it postponed? Ask the U. "senate, oligarchy." which by withholding ratification of the Taris treatv. and delaying our joining the League of Nations, has delayed the League coming into active operation for more than a year. Europe, determining to wait no longer for "slacker" America or "slacker republicanism" in America. is going ahead to care for these prisoners, the starvation of whom for many months las literally at the senate's doer. o Half the pecrl in the United Satc- could almost b rers-iaded to accept a monarchy for tho Kike of avoiding these wearisome quadrennial campaigns.

More Truth Than Poetry
By JAMES J. MONTAGUE
When ' I was six or eight years ora I very frequently was told That cold or hot mince pie was not A salutary diet. And in the watches of the night when things were often far from right Within my turn, this caused mo some Foreboding and disquiet. When people shuffled off the stage . before attaining middle age Beneath my belt I often felt An apprehension fill me That pie that had brought them to their doom, and steeped in bleak abysmal gloom My heart would sink as I would think That pie perhaps would kill me. But now a man who leads the lists of jrastroenterologists Says pie's a good and wholesome food And that beyond a question There's nothing tucked beneath its lids that's harmful to the frailesl kids Or interfere with their careers By crabbing their digestion. If, when an adolescent youth I'd known this scientific truth. My conscious micht have been more light. But still I don't regret it. x
For though I f e It quite satisfied;
that gastronomls suicide Would be a sin. packed t in Whenever I could get it. (Copvricht. 19.")

MIKIAM. The exquisite name of Miriam seems to be a predecessor of Mary. It too signifies "bitter" and comes from the Hebrew word marah. which has that translation. But Miriam, according to the Scriptures, antedates Mary. Miriam first named the sister of Moses and Aaron, who led the songs of the Israelites when they saw their enemies dead upon the seashore. It was not repeated until after the captivity, when it took the Greek forms of Marian and Mariamne, and became much used by Jewish women. The Asmonean princess in whom the bravo Macca-
bean lone was Herod the Great, iam. Later it is
extinguished by
was called Marfound designating
the poor toul who is cited as having fulfilled the most terrib'e of all the woes denounced by Mösts upon tho daughters of Jerusalem. Miriam was at one time the name by which the Blessed Virgin herself was called and also it named two popular saints; the Magdalen and the Tenitent of Egypt. Mariamne. Jhe derivative, is .sufficiently important to be discuased separately at a later date. The pearl is Miriam's talismanio gem.' It's legacy of tears will be set aside for Miriam, to whom it will bring sweetness. charm and tru friendships. Monday in her lii'-ky day and seven her lucky number. (Copyright, 1320.)
