A Great Danger to World Morali

A Peace Without Punishment.
' (The following editorial from last
week's Manufacturers' Record was en-
dorsed at a meeting of the mayor and
, town commissioners of Lumberton
i last Friday and The Robesonian was
i requested to publish it. which it is
j glad to do, for it expresses this paper's
i sentiments exactly. Editor.)
j The glorious news which comes from
i France, telling of how our troops and
those of our Allies have beaten back
j the army of invaders who have curse
i ea every foot of ground ovor which
wsey nave trod, may well rive heart j
to the nation and to all civilization.!
lit would, however, be a serious nrs-j
i take for us to imagine that this
means the ending of the war, for it I
I does not. We are a long way from j
! Berlin, and until the A merican flag I
; f iies over Berlin as a conquered city, j
vvd the terms of peace are written!
: there, and the Hohenzollerns, rhej
Hapsburgs aaJ their leaders in trisj
world horror have paid with their!
' ,-)'.; u lives the penalty for their un
speakable crime?, it :-ould t-e prema- j
tur. to do much shouting.
The fight is yet a long and des-'
: perate one j
We may rest assured that before our i
troops cross the Rhine and break down
the barriers ah.,-ad cf us there will be
; ea f ul losses, and we shall have to:
slPx-1 our hearts t, a full realization
of the magnitude of the task.
Germany, the blackest criminal in
the world's history, through every in.'
j fluence which it can exert in this" and ;
; every other country, seeks to secure
; peace whenever its military leaders
find that they are doomed. "We shall!
have peace talk from some weak-
minded ministers of the Gospel, but,j
thank God! their number is few. We!
shall have peace talk from many pa
pers some moved oy pro-German in
fluence, some by sickly neurotic sen-
. timent against punishment of crime
I and wherever pro-German deviltrv can
j carry on its work we may rest assured!
it will be done, for many men, claim- j
ling the livery of Heaven, will be en-i
I gaged in the work of the devil,
i Many will seek to create an impress

; from its military leaders, when every
; intelligent man who has studied the
I situation now knows that the people
I and the military leaders are one and
i the same in the support of this war.
i The unspeakable individual crimes
which marked the movement of the

BECAUSE the Highland Scot, wading through the
wet weather oi the mountains, found Kilts kept drier.
Before the Roman soldier, himself a Kiltie, came,
Lowland and Highland folk wore Kilts.
tWh? n modern toned the Lowlands to trousers,
the wet mountain heather held the Highlands to Kilts.
But his wet weather, had Goodrich been founded
