Ir THere WERE no war on and the atrocities now 
being perpetrated in Armenia were to have the right of 
way in the press of the journals of the United States 
there would be a storm of protest raised against the cruel- 
ties and barbarities being committed. The magnitude of 
the war has dwarfed all other operations. The United 
States, however, has made a protest to the German Im- 
perial government. Requests have been made to that 
power to use its influence in putting an end to Armenian 
massacres. Now that the group of men who favored a 
ecuel submarine warfare have been retired, America may 
begin to have some confidence that the protest will be giv- 
en a favorable hearing. It is useless to expect that 
Germany can control all of the operations of its Allies, 
but a sharp note from the Imperial German government 
could help matters in Armenia. 
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 24, is Hospital Sunday and every 
one is requested to carry to his or her church a contribu- 
tion for the benefit of the Beverly Hospital. On Sunday, 
Oct. 17, envelopes will be distributed to be returned the 
following Sunday containing a contribution. The Bev- 
erly Hospital has won a place in the work of the North 
Shore communities. All should help in his or her way 
to maintain it. The Hospital has served the communities 
along the Shore efficiently and it should receive the cord- 
ial support of the North Shore towns. 
Tur O_p Country Fairs have had their day, but the 
newer enterprises such as are held at Salem (N. H.) and 
Brockton are taking their places. Apart from the attrac- 
tions, insane, daring and otherwise, such enterprises are 
educational. It affords a way for agriculturalists to ob- 
serve the work of other men, and affords merchants a 
convenient and efhcient opportunity to operate. 
Br Ir REMEMBERED that Dr. Dumba sailed on Tues- 
Cay with a guarantee of safe conduct to his home in 
Austria. Thus an unpleasant episode in the annuals of 
tae war is ended. Incidentally the residents of Lenox 
are relieved of an embarrassing social problem. 
Tuer ALLIES are pounding away in the Dardanelles 
with a supply of ammunition equal to the demands being 
made, but Turkey will eventually have to face an ammuni- 
tion problem. Men and ammunition will win this war. 
Tue AMMUNITION WORKMEN who have been labor- 
ing night and day to equip the Allies for their contest are 
beginning to see the results of their labor.

Ir 1s A Prry that this country does not conserve its 
wealth by law in great emergencies. The large number 
of horses shipped to Africa during the Boer War was a 
calamity. This war is now depleting the present supply 
of horses in America. America is being remunerated in 
i.oney for the horses shipped of course, but America 
vould be wealthier by retaining its horses and refusing 
the money offers. The time may come when a stop wiil 
be made to the shipments of horses by law. 
Jupce Dusugur REFUSED to commit the sentence of 
a young man who had stolen an automobile. He said, 
“ordinarily in the case of a first offense probation would 
be satisfactory. We are dealing with an offence whica 
We are 
duty bound to put a stop to it.” A jail sentence was im- 
posed. One judge knows how to prescribe for the epi- 
demic. 
THe WIRELESS TELEPHONE as a mechanical inven- 
tion is a success; yet there is much work to be done to 
make it a practicable, commercial apparatus. Now that 
its possibility has been demonstrated the telephone com- 
pany may be depended upon to push the investigations 
that are being made. No man can conceive the advan- 
tages and economy of telephone connections that will 
make wiring unnecessary. 
THe NEw ENGLAND CLIMATE has many disagreeable 
features which have to be put up with, but as a place in 
which to live it compares favorably with any section of 
the country. The terrible storms in the South arouse 
the sympathies of all and makes the thoughtful thankful 
that their lot in life has placed them in a section of the 
country so well favored as our own. 
WuiLe A Great War is being waged in Europe the 
veterans of our own war, after fifty years of peace, 
marched through the streets of Washington. May there 
be fifty years more of peace and still fifty years after 
that before our land is engaged in a bloody war. 
Tur Way 1n Wuicn Russia and Japan buried their 
differences and the present spirit of good will that exists 
in America between the North and the South are hopeful 
signs for the future peace of Europe. Enmity and ill-will 
never did anybody or any nation good. 
Tue Newspapers that are featuring a war scare in- 
volving the United States and Japan are unworthy of 
respect. Such articles are a disgrace to honest and legiti- 
mate journalism and violate the instincts of true patri-— 
otism. 
EVIDENTLY THE REPUBLICAN Party does not think 
that the time has arrived for adopting the prohibition 
plank, judging from the results of the primaries, and the 
state convention last Saturday. 
THE SUCCESSFUL OPERATION of a wireless telephone 
will place the year of 1916 in a conspicuous place in the 
annals of scientific achievements.
