THE NEW WAR America Has Transformed the Purposes of Ihc World's Greatest Conflict TT WAS on July 28, four years npo, that Austrin dcclnrcd war upon Serbia and started the flame that has enwrapped more than half the world. Tomoirow, therefore, is one of tho black anniver saries of history. Yet it can have other meanings for America. It has remained for America to trans form all the aims of the war and to make them glorioui. The war thnt wc ate fifchtiiiR now is not tho war that it was in the licRinnine;. All its purposes arc changed. All the old Roals are forRotten for a better one. The couia&c of President Wilson, main tained by the mass consciousness of America, has brought the miracle to pass. Itace hatieds and suspicions, the pic meditated villainies of continental diplo macy, ieliRioU3 trends, national cjjo and trade livahies were involved at the out set of the war for bcttlcmcnt by the sword I Over and above the German Govern ment and some of the other Govern ments for that matter there cisted invisible and supciior forces that fotced action and decisions. These forces were noted not in industi ialism, but in the peculiar mania of commercial ndvcntui ousness intei nationally oiRanicd, exalted and in the impel lal mood. Tho I'.illins and the Kiupps, the Noith Get man Lloyd interests and the concession hold ers in Deilin typified the invisible rov crnment of the European continent. They wctc mobilized in a collective apency (hat is moic povvtiful than rov eminent. It c.rittcd above the (Gov ernment and yet it had none of the rcpomibilitic? of goicrnmevt. Foices like these held themselves superior to the State. The poisonous philosophy of secict diplomacy and the madness of kings weic their weapons of offense and defense. Industry alone cannot make a State, because ifs cnei gy must alnays be greater than its whdom. -Labor alone cannot make a State, because labor is essentially a co-opctative function. Labor and industry and commeicc and all the creative forces of work on the one hand and money on the other must be subject to the intelligent guidance of mass judgment as expiesed through the medium of a ficc government for the common good. The typical commoicial oligarchy in Europe held itself superior to the State. It set up checks and balances and sacri ficed whole peoples to maintain these balances. It deluded weak-minded kings. It became an organism of immeasuiablc power and lesourccfulness without eyes to sec or a heart to feel. This, essen tially, is the monstrous thing that America has set its face against. The reiterated policy of self-determination of nations promulgated by America, op posed so often, doubted so often and still questioned at times even in America, lepresents nothing more than a progiam devised to make this agency of destruc tion forever helpless and forever inactive. The United Staten jiieoiis by exery pronouncement and agi cement that it has made since its entry into tlic war that life is more important than the means of life. It has held that the processes of inter national commerce must be left to develop in a course of natural evolution. It has thrown its matchless stiength into the stiuggle to insure a state of affairs under which the mass judgment and tho common concerns of all the people demo cratically represented and expicsscd shall direct the processes of government and diplomacy uther than the whims of idiot kings and their confederates. And it seems that we aic indeed a nation of destiny. Because tho confla giation ovci all Europe frightened the unciowncd kings into a sense of their own madness when America enteied the war. And they seem dis posed for tneir salvation to accept the American view and arc following our leadership in most of the things that we propose and plan. The fires of war have buined away many of the barriers that existed be tween America and Europe. And the American people have looked beyond and they have seen in the stricken peoples their brotheis and their sisters in heart. The triumph of America has been that it has made this war a matter of the na tional will, an adventure of deliverance upo-i which the national spirit has gone out gladly without doubts or fears. Tho only admissible alternative name for Hog Island would be Goat Island, because it's getting the Kaiser's. DAYS OrF QNE o V-f that of those unansweiable questions make llfo sweet for tho pundits has darted up out of the newspapers. Somebody wants to know what a drum major does on his day off; Can the civ 11 lzed order hold any pastime adeejuate to amuse so btately a person or cause him to unbend? A drum-major on his day off probably seeks out a high mountain iv hereon he may sit and view the world disdainful!). The habits of almost any man, his trends and his aspirations and the nature of his character are pretty cleaily revealed In his use of a twenty-four hour vacation wheedled or bullied or tricked at intervals from the boss. Patient men go fishing, roolish men spend half their day going to a place a'nd the other half getting back home. Wise men do not toll on a day off, even In a hunt for diversion. They Just He around. This Is thi season of days off. And one Is .moved tn wonder what days off and vacations will be like when the bolshevikl realize 'their drsam and rid the world of work. ., In all likelihood, since man Is a restles being and never satlslied, you will find tho bolshevik of the future, 0X1 haustcd by a season of utter Idleness, tell ing of tho blltho vucatlon ho expects to enjoy as a piano mover or babbling in gleo over n prospective week-end nt Baldwin's.

The consent of the governed seems to be becoming more than an empty phrase in Russia, THE CHAFFING DISH "Tvn. linNUY T. SCHN1TTKIND, Ph.

' Wo thought the best thing we could do with this ltuitiiry would bo to refer It to ouh favorite contributor, Dove Dulcot, who has had moie "experiences" than nny au thor wc know and who has attained the unliiuo success ofnevor -having anything rejected bv the Chaffing Dish. Mr. Dulict's Confession It is vcr.v agreeable to me, writes Mr. Dulcet, to look back on the early days of my career, befote the Chaffing Dish raised nio to tho eminence wheie I now stand, Mj first ambition was to linvo a poem aceeirtul by the Pacific Monthly. I wrote one and submitted it to the editor, taking precaution not to Inclose any stamps, so that he could not return It. To my amaze ment the editor tcleginphcd mo to come to see him at once. 1 did so. Ho took mc to bis club for lunch and with tears In bis eves begged me not to continue writing. "If I wcie to publish this poem," he said, 'all tin readeis would insist on every thing else In the m.ig.ilnc coming up to tho s line high stand ml. That would be Im possible and the magazine would be lUlneJ. v, mi would spoil our readers' taste for the simple little things we aie able to piocure for them I Implmc sou, Mr. Dulcet" (ho said) 'to embaik upon another career. .No mm of voui majestic, na.v , eiur prodigious talent, has any right tn mill tho piospects of the thousands of other writers who arc living to do their best. Ameilcan liteiature would he disorganized by the appcaranco ol such a piece as this. Better Hint sou should starve than all the other writers of this hemisphere should bo thrown out of emplovinent nt one sweep" Shaking with emotion, he pressed the manuscript into mv band .and lied. , I did not question the slneetltv of this pie il man (lontinues Mr. Dulcet) and for a long time I respected his entreaty. I did not epille see however, why I should lose the pleasuie of seeing mj work in piint lust because Alfietl Nov es, l'lla Vilin and llcniv van Dike would 10m uiit suklde when tliej saw mj stuff. Ifippilv (Mr. Dulcet proceeds) there was established later on In mv native city an e-nterpilslng lestnuiant which pioposed In pel simile tho public into its dining looms In a liberal use of tho seductions of lhvme The propiietoi- of the cafe offered In cmploj me to vvilto a ilnilv poem ex tolling the special dishes of the dav. Tho veisc was to be biicf, ccellent In lhjmo and ih.vthm, and lettered laigely on dodgers of paper which vveio to be pasted on tho front of the plate glass show win dows As nil added attraction, instead of the custom.ir.v white capped chef cooking gildelle lakes in the window, I was to sit theie at a desk with my pen and ink, toss ing off the lhvme for the net dav. As nt the time when this offer readied mo I had not eaten fen two elavs, vou may imagine I accepted without hesitation and my pledge to the editor of the Pacific was tin own to the winds It is pMcasant (observes Mi. Dulcet) to recall that time but It was veiy trjlng to epericnce I was not paid in cash, but in meal checks, and these were not given me until I hid finished the dav's epiota of verses I was given the chef's menu for the following dnv, and sunoundeii by the maddenlnglv succulent odois of chops and steaks and frkvling onions, I sat in the window endcav cuing to find ihjmes for such awkw.ud words as portci house and cassciole. My invention was sharpened by hunger and bv the curious gaze of the thiongs who watched me through tho win dows. I shall nevei -forget some of those ditties: they sometimes recur to me even now when I sit down to luxurious meals in company witli the editors of the Chaffing Dish, the North American Review, the New Republic and the Investor's Annual. Here are some of them: Our rumps and flanks Deserve our thanks; Our cabbage, too. Would tame u sinew. Tasty blts'll Pass jour bridle; Tryour schnitzel And a seldel. Sing n ballad Of lobster salad. Let the public Know jou've chovved: Our fried onions Thin the croud Fresh baked shad Is far fiom bad. I have always thought (resumes Mr. Dul cet) that my knack was rather for the' epigrammatic and terse. Often I was spurred by tho pangs of hunger to ejacu late couplets that have laroly been sur passed for stinging bievlty and point. To wit: Ham and suet No need to chew It, Pilot of solo Will plug that hole. Peed jour face With pickled plaice. Tripe and knuckles Your widow chuckles. Our table d'hote Will Bet jour goat. Bggs fried double. An end of trouble. I feel sure by tills time (Mr. Dulcet con cludes) that tho editor of the Pacific was not entirely sincere In what he said. For though I continued writing these salvos for the Rhyming Restaurant for more than a jean, Henry van Dyke and the others did not even whimper. In fact, I might have been doing It still had not the restaurant failed and I turned to higher forms of art. I hope this Is tho kind of thing Doctor Schnlttklnd wants. We .hope so, too. gOC RATES. ' ' ;f l -TUDdE !fH i ft SITELESS CAMPING By T. Mortis Lnngstrcth Maniac Lodge. D13AR LOONHR: I quite agree with jou that tho temp tations of gasoline far exceed tho3e of al cohol. Any follow- with a cruse of oil, a gas tank and a mouse-power motor will leave his home and happy occupation for the white-hot way. Theie he'll mile away tho time until the gas gives out or the police turn him in. I ALSO agree with jou that camping out by motoi turns the ordinary beads of rwcat into a sort of primrosary of c6ol enjojment. No more of this tump-lino torture for me. If the modern motorist rends enough periodicals lie is sure to take his tent nnd griddle along with him sooner oi later. But ou know how soon he succumbs to the call of the kitchen range! Unless he's made of sterner stuffing than most lie 11 call off ltis foi might of free dom in about four daj-s. But I tell jou, Looncr my bov, when you come up I'm going to show jou a new sport which I call slteless camping. QOMG of the bojs dropped in on Maniac sJ last night and we got to arguing about enjoyments. Had a legujar symposium, mostly sjmp. Arthur tells how his (the Universal) car can do tho universe in twelve dajs Bono explains how he likes to settle down by his sylvan pool and just run back to the farm for vegetables every day. Cassldy swore he could pack all his .duds under the hood, and Drooler took him up nnd saldthat you couldn't get ical comfort withcat the tireless cooker and tho refrigerator nnd the vacuum cleaner tiaillng behind. Dtnest likes to sleep on tho ground nnd I'Ischer intends to tiun die a brass bed after his new twin-twelve. I kept quiet until they were nil talked out. Then I sprang my slteless jcamplng on 'cm. YOU know, L.ooner, whether jou are going to camp out with a blanket or decamp with tho contents of half a house, every fellow gets face to face with 5 o'clock sooner or later. You've always got to set up housekeeping. You may do with out wood or without water, but jou can't pitch a tent without a tent site. Wo'vo swallowed horseless motion and wireless telephony, but placoless tent-pitching well, ou know why the bojs call my shack Maniac Lodge. AS I was saying, the motor camper has .to quit at dusk to browso for a tent site. But does lie? Does a man, maddened by a matchless road, a purring motor and a hopping landscape, stop to pick out six feet of level dirt to sleep on? As our old geometry used to sa-, It Is absurd. No, sir, Old Scotcli never got half so Intoxl eating as the Good Gulf Gas. But look now at the other side of the picture. ABOUT 8 he stops, dusty, hungry, sav--age. Ho gropes for wood. Ho swal lows a mess called food. He then tries to pitch his tent. It Is the darkest hour of night, called pitch dark, when he tries It. He makes a night of It a long night. It is a curious fact of nature that night lasts twice as long on the ground as two feet above it. We've had that odious experience together, Looner, Remember the Upper Ausable? But yet that man, by 4 o'clock of the next afternoon, will have forgot the necessities of stopping early and will go careening on Into the dark and7 uninhab itable hours. I used to, but I don't now. My car yes, Looner, still that (.make of imperishable fame, that model so like our glorious Republic, -on and UiwtruoOW, r YEflre-:. ni w.'A 'birw-ft.Mj . SINE DIE tool proof, of the people my car is dlf feient now. With it I can camp, site unseen. T FIXED it tills wn - and sawed down t aj : I tooK my i-orei the hack of the fiont seat near the sides, hinged it at the bot tom, stowed back the upholstery nnd tacked it down. Then I made two sup ports of wood which I attached to tho bot tom front of the back seat and sawed them off just the height of the metal edge. Tho front seat's back will fold over on to the supports on the back seat's front. There is a crevice in the middle, but this can be stuffed full of blankets nnd there jou have a sleeping car that gives jou a new liiMiiy of camping out: sleeping while jou sleep. fTUiAT fool Drooler said it wouldn't work for two men. But I took him out, diaped up the mosquito netting, let down the curtains when it rained, poked my own feet under the steering wheel, stowed his clothes in the cavitj' beneath our bunk and noticed that it took him about a minute to get to sleep. That's the next thing I'te got to invent, a snore-mask; but Drooler had nothing to say the next morning except that if I'd loan Ihim the connivance ho guessed Mattle'ii like to go with him for a fishing trip along the Bouquet now that she could have a Pull man lower backed right up to tho river. now, Looner, what do jou think '" of si pretty nice iinpicmptu vacation, doesn't It? Dirt easj-. Ford cheap and the most poi table summer bungalow in the world. It is a sort of shamo to call it camping. I'll never go back on the real thing: the trail with a canoe at the end, the fire by the lake and the wilderness all about. But this slipping along slick roads with thermos-cooled delights at hand and no bother for tho evening, it may not be camping, this slteless stuff, but it comes mighty near being a new sport.

A basin of rum was bi ought him and jou ought to have seen his face: "The Lord," said Kelly with icvetcnce, "put lvirj thing in Its place, Andy He plver Intituled thot liijuor" wa had to check him bj force; Unicconclled tp the outrage old Kelly re mained, of course. But after a time a twinkle came and re lighted his eye. And his lips tugged in at the cornets with a humor unbeatably slj-; He sighed nnd looked all about him and down at the wasted mm; "I don' molnd tho fingers," said Kjelly, "but thot was a pretty good thumb!" Lo, a magnificent gesture, denying the body's defeat By the laughing zest of the spit it that has its own standards to meet; Old Kelly legretfully gazing down at his hand in the rum, Saying, "I don' molnd the flngets, but that was a pretty good thumb!" I After all, we may still Jie victors even when we're laid low, Wo can slip one over on Fate Just, by tho way we go; We can often laugh in our torments or . grin if they stilke us dumb, Like Kellj' forgetting three fingers by moaning the loss of a thumbi New Hun blows are predicted by tho critics, who ma j' or maj' not have reference to another vocat effort by the Kaiser.
