HONORING THE CONFEDERATES When the old Confederates met in i re-union in Washington, Senator J Bankhead, of Atlanta, made this motion in the Senate: "As a mark of honor and respect to the Confederate ' veterans assembled in reunion in the city of Washington, the Capital of , the United States of America, I move | that the Senate adjourn until 1 "2 o'clock on Friday next." Before making this motion Senator Bankhead made a line speech from which we make this extract: " I am grateful that God has spared me this day, when my old comrades in arms of the Confederacy are here in the Capital of that Nation which for four years they struggled desperately to I destroy hut which none in all this j great Republic are now more anxious j to preserve. "For four years I march <1 and , fought under the Stars and Bars, j Five immediate members of my fam- j ily are now enlisted under the Stars and Stripes, a son, two gland .ons, a: d j two nephews.

Within a eontury Athens hernine the center of eloipiriice, poetry, philosophy and tils erty. The Destroyer, r?lit one day a young prince from northern Mneedonln visited Athens lie marveled that the city should he like a vineyard whose purple cluster* were without a fence, whose treasure boxes were without watchmen. In that hour of avarice and ambition Philip recalled the floldters in bis fa thers army at bop>?. He believed that one Soldier could conquer dozen merchants, bankers, statesmen and scholars. Returning to Macedouia, I'hillp turned his whole people into one I vast fighting machine. iy? unit was the Mactslonlan phalanx. First came twenty-four men with short spears, then came a second twenty-four with spears of six feet, then a third twenty11 four with speurs of eight feet In length. The lust tier of men In the company had spears twenty feet long, resting upon the shoulders of the men in the front rank. Those bristling spears were invincible. The terror of tho MacedoJ nian phalanx went out into all the earth. Demosthenes was the one mnn 1 who had vision lie called the Atbe nlans together upon the public square, assembled them in the great theater. ' lie mounted the rostrum upon Mars hill and warned Athens. He pointed i out that between Athens on the south and Macedonia on the north were three buffer states. As the Macedonian army moved southward these states organ i lzed tlicir army an<l went forth in de I fense of tlieir homes and their fire i sides. Hut Demosthenes insisted that these ImlYer states were not only lighting their own buttles, but tlie battles of i Athens. If they were to fall, if their armies were t<> lie defeated, then Ath ens single handed must meet the entire force of the victorious in?st. Hut Ath ens delayed. The greatest man of his time, Demosthenes, and one of the noblest orations ever propounded were of no avail. Philip crossed the frontier The flames of the burning towns at midnight lighted up the land as a terrible warning. Those who could do so fled ami henceforth were exiles and wanderers upon the face of the earth. The populations that remained 'n the towns were annihilated to the last child. Thirty-two towns that had flourished as commercial communities vanished front the face of the earth. The whole state of t.'hahddece, answering to our modern Hclglum, became a des ert, although the mines were still work cd. Terrorized into submission, the Creeks threw down their arms and . opened the gates of their cities to Phil Ip's soldiers, who brought with them women and children In fetters that the spirit of Athens mighty be utterly broi ken. Now tell me is there any parallel , in history quite so striking as that be, tweon the organized militarism of ( Macedonia ami the subsequent ruin of ? Athens and the present organized milli tarism of < human v now at t .Mooting the ruin of llclgium. France and Hug- | land? Listen to I'rofessor von Stengel, . the German authority on international ' law: "There will he no conferenee at The Hague when this war is over. The one rendition of prosperous existence for the natives is submission to our j (Germany's) supreme direction. Under! our overlordship ail international law | would hecoine superfluous, for we of j ourselves and instinctively give to eacii one his rights." ( France Is Fighting For Hor Land. (tne of the goals for which France is fighting is to recover her lands. Noth- 1 ing witnesses tlie terror of this war ' like the fact that France's very tlelds ' have been destroyed. Forty-two ceutl. meter shells ha\e burled the rich black I earth at tJie top and Hung over it great masses ?f subsoil, sour, untitled for wheat or rye. Nor can the peasant's horse travel over the upheaved stones, tile twisted rusty wire, the shell fragments, the unexploded bombs. Great trenches, ten to twenty feet, gash the soil. No tree is left. Gone are all the vineyards, ruined the orchards. Where the little farmhouses stood there remains only the stray line of brick foundation, overgrown with weeds ami thorns. The very railwnys have become mere streaks of Iron rust. Franco la Fighting Slavary For Har Woman. " The desperation of France's flght is , inspired by her revulsion from the spectacle of Lelglans enslaved and the horrors wrought upon French women and girls. A merlon is far removed now from the battle front, but men like Mr. | Hoover, like Brand Whitlock and our ' Ib-d Cross physicians, who have re1 turned from Belgium, have spread out '? the whole story. The spectacle of t lr.oiMMi Belgians driven in slave gangs across the line Into German territory , was caleiilnted to terrorize the peas- ' ' ants of France. I.lttlo wonder that they were stirred to fury and are tight- J ing unto death. If each had a thou-| ' sand lives he would gladly give them ; r all to hold hack the foe.

The Tragedy of Rheims. j The unneeessary destruetioii by an Invading army of France's noblest ca ] thedrals and art treasures has fed the fires of battle for the French. The ) whole world has always umlcrstowd that the destnictlon of the Cathedral of , itheims wirs wrought for no other rea > son than tliaf it was the finest art I treasure possessed by Fram e Nootli I er building erpiahsi it In wealth of or nanietit, richness of sculpture. Its carvings were as delicate as luce and as majestic as mountains. The glorl ous cathedral was dear to the French people because there her kings luu been crowned nnd there .lotin of Art the little peasant girl, stood hesiil ' Charles VII. and hogged the nuuuirel that now her work was done she might lay aside her arms and go hack it peace to her flocks and her postures A great cathedral Is a gift of (>od t? society.

France and Holland. The peril that has overtaken Flol land to the north has strengthened the lighting spirit in Prunce. Some dun gers there are that seem to spread like a contagion and to ride upon the wings of the wind. For months the people In France have anticipated the In vasion of Holland. It has not escaped their observation that the Gerniun army bus dug great trendies on the frontier line back of Amsterdam, The Hague and Rotterdam. Stores of nui munition have been accumulated and great guns put in place. Germany is now ready to attack Holland in the rear. In front, upon the North sea are Germany's submarines. Already they have sunk 20 per cent of Holland's shipping, and not Pngland herself Is more dependent than Holland upon Imports of wheat. The French authorities believe that Germany is uvn?viuit'i,v tuning nit; i 'iiicu people to the point of desperation. Then, j when some trifling outbreak takes _ pluce upon the part of the people crushed between the upper and nether millstones, a German army lu the 4 rear of Holland and German suhma rines on Its front, some compulsory ? onthrenk enn he used as an excuse for J Invading Holland. What Germany 4 wanted most was France's Iron mines J and Holland's harbors and the mouth 4 of the Ithlne at Rotterdam. But Bel- J glum had Iron mines close to those of ? France, and Holland could wait. Itot- J terdnni has grown In commerce and * shipping fnr more rapidly than Ham- J burg. Because of her control of the 4 mouth of the ithlne her trade and com merce have advanced by leaps nnd 4 bounds. Future events are "upon the lap of the gods." , Dolay and Indecision In the Hour of 4 Peril. 4 In his history of Greece (the fifth 4 volume, page 27.'?i the German hlsto- J riati ('rutins I11 explaining how the mil- 4 itarism of Macedonia finally destroyed J Athens and brought on the dark ages 4 nt once praises and blames Phocion. j I'll is Greek oil neat or had been accustomed all his life to deal with immature minds. He was spoken of as "the lionest man." Phoclon's chief excelenee was in public speaking. Seventylive per cent of his strength was In his speaking power and 2."? per cent in Tactical oflieieney. Crutlus says that liis great weakness was that "he was i supporter of the peace policy" and a m:iill pmp of the party of Eubulus, who was at onee secretary of war and secretary <>f tlie navy. In tho very hour when Macedonian regiments were marching southward tlie pacifists, led l?y I'hoelotj. were weaving laurel leaves iiml urging that Athens' mission was Intellect, culture, art. eloquence, poetry and philosophy The Inevitable result of the peace policy wns that the Iron hand of militarism snuffed out every flaming torch in the temple of genius nml doomed the human race to the dark ages. Phodon and Eubulus postponed and watched and waited. Hlowly the Iron regiments from the north moved southward. One by one the | buffer states and cities were crushed. ' Flnnlli the whole force of victorious Macedonian militarism was launched upon Athens, the unprepared city. ( Thus two men pulled Athens down I about their own heads and turned the j splendid city Into a blackened shell, ; for states, like Hamlet, are slain by indecision. It wns energy and the faculty for instant decision that made Lincoln and Grant. The lesson of the hour for America is the necessity of Instant decision, instant action. Our Duty la That of Immediate Action. When the war began Germany's In > " ciilentnl needs were harbors hi Hoi- / land, the steel plants of Belgium, the Iron ores of northern France nnd yet all these were merely secondary. The true treasures of a nation are justice, humanity, obedience to law, recognition of the rights of others.
