We have had experience with both. are their re- Another thing the' Germans beginning to realize is that Allles don't like them either, marks the New York Sun. When the shouting comes--and it may not be tong delayed--only those who have subseribed to the Victory Loan should be heard. An honor flag will be ours if we reach our quota. A twenty-five per cent. over-sub¥cription will bring another crown. Come on, Kings- ton! All the words in the German Peace proposal were carefully look- 6d up in the dietionary in advance to make sure they all had a number of different meanings. ; It will likely be a Victory Loan indeed; the mext™ over will be a Péace Loan. Canada has a loug Way to travel yet to keep herseif financed and industrious. Canada has sent over 425,000 men overseas. Her war expenditure now averages In excess of $1,000, 000 a day. The need of raising the full $500,000,000 of . war loan is very apparent. The Canadians.at the front are making- history. They "ave won additional glory by the capture of Valenciennes.

And f due time the verdicts will be en forced. The fact is Metabiy ocea~ sioning his royal. highness some sleeplessness o'-nights A few misguided people have de- plored the tendency to curse the kaiser and all the abominations that he stands for. But, according to Dr, James RK. Day, of Syracuse University, "It is religious to hate the kaiser, because the Bible teaca- es ug to hate the devil and all nis works."

AN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. The entire press of Canada will read with deep interest and genuine pleasure the generous appreciation of its war time services, as voiced in to-day's Whig by his lordship the Bishop of Ontario. These words of kindly consideration and commen- dation are all the more valued by the press because they come, not only from one occupying a high position in the religious world, but because they are the gratuitous tri- bute of one who has closely followed the course of the press since war began. His lordship shows clear derstanding of the many and pars plexing problems that confront the newspaper publisher, problems that have been intensified many-fold - by war conditions. He realizes the constant demands made upon .th Rewspapers by the. advocates of every public and patriotic cause, and pays a kindly tribute to the gener- ous manner in which these demands 'have been met. We believe the Can- adian press, with fcarcely an ex- ception," has loyally endeavored io do its full duty to the Dominion and the Empire. It put country first. For that reason,~and for that reason alone, it supported Union Govetnment. Bishop Bidwell touch- €8 'upon this point, and expresses his belief that the newspapers suf- fered much in consequence. That thet attitude was misunderstood [b¥-gome and cursed by others, ne publisher will deny. It was realiz- ed, however, that the path of right and Justice has ever been a hard one to tread, and in that spirit criticism was met and endured. Oniy by unity of action on the part of the Allies could this war be won; simi- larly, only hy unity of action could Canada do her part The press, which almost unanimously sapport- ed union, would have miserably failed in its duty had it taken any other course. ) In his lordship's appreciation he also refers to the absence of "yel- low journalism" in Canada. 'The public, no less than the publishers, will appreciate this fact. Journalism has been kept on a high plane in Canada, perhaps largely because the people demanded . accuracy and honesty in the papers they admitted into "their homes. The bishop's tribute will be read with pleasure and gratitude in every sanctum, Its message Is one of cheer and en- cauragement---something that the press is rarely privileged to receive. We can only express oar grateful acknowledgement and voice the hope that the. Canadian pr will ever be worthy of the fie wolds of appreciation spoken to-day by the Bishop of Ontario. me --------_ es.
