The) Leipsic Volks Zeitung says a meet. | ing of the annexationist Fatherland party at Jena was broken up by the independent Socialists, who, after | passing a vote for ‘‘a general peace | by understanding,” threw out the; members of the Fatherland party. | While pan-German petitions and | resolutions are being. rushed to the. Emperor by the wmilitarists, other | currents are active. This is instanced | by a meeting at Frankfort on Sunday of a free citizens’ committee, which | edopted a resoiution to the effect) that a lasting peace which would! really safeguard Germany’s vital eco- nomic interests would be_ possible | only on the basis of a policy of con- | ciliation, in the sense of the peace | resolution adopted by the Reichstag. The committee expressed the hope that from the negotations with Rus- sia might result a peace which, by honest adherence to the principle of self-determination of peoples, might exclude the danger of new conflicts. Dernberg Points Out Dangers. At this meeting Dr. Bernhard Dernberg, former Secretary of State for the Colonies, said that if the Vatherland party won, the war would be lost. He rejected annexations and cash indemniities and declared Ger-| many was powerless to enforce long- | term payments by installments from | America and England. Annexations; in the East, he asserted, would be a source of constant danger, as they would irritate Russia. Dr. Dernburg also urged disarmament. The Munich Post attacks the Fa- therland party and supports the atti- tude taken by President Wilson in respect of recognition of the demands | for autonomy on the part of the Slav | population of the central empires. | i | “The Russian revolution has stirred the nationalistic feeling among the Slavs of Austria-Hun- gary to the boiling point,’’ it says “The whole Slav world will rise up against us if we attempt to impose humiliating terms on Russia.” Von Tirpitz Thinks Britain Is Weak- ening. According to the Nachrichten of Dusseldorf, Admiral von Tirpitz, former Minister of Marine and one} of the leaders of the Fatherland party, in an address to politicians and journalists, expressed confidence that Germany's interests in the East should be safeguarded. He asserted the submarine warfare already was forcing Great Britain to seek peace and that it was ready to adopt any expedient for this purpose, even be- ing willing to forsake one or the Other of its allies. “Great Britain already has lessened considerably the demands put for- Ward in the interests of its allies, ir order to realize its own war aims ir | Belgium.’’ the Admiral said. “We place unconditional trust in Hinden- | burg and Ludendorff not to con- clude an unsafe peace. Renunciation | of our interests in the West would | cripple our political and economic | future.”’ ee eee LONDON, Jan. 15 (By A. P.).— The Berlin Vorwaerts, organ of the Socialists, says the militarist party in Germany is completely in the as- | cendancy and that the only question to decide is whether a great dea! of territory should be annexed in veiled | form or rather less in open form. The newspaper adds that everything now points to a military dictatorship, accompanied by the resignation of A ee a ne ne Ne nt Dr. Richard von Kuehlmann, the German Foreign Minister.

JUDGE DYER CUTS FINE AND FREES OLEO LAW VIOLATOR Philip Brante’s Wife and Two Chil- dren Need Him, Declaration I'rom Bench. Philip Brante of 3915 Virginia avenue, convicted a week ago in the Federal Court of violation -of the oleomargarine laws on three counts, was permitted to pay $600 ona $1000 fine today by Judge Dyer and go free.

FRANKFORT, Ky., Jan. 15 (By A. | P.).— Both Houses of the Kentucky tieneral Assembly yesterday ratified the proposed prohibition amendment to the Federal Constitution. Ken- tucky is the third State to ratify the amendment, the others being Missis- sippi and Virginia. The resolution passed the House, 66 to 10, and was approved in the Senate, 27 to 16. The debate in both houses was brief. COAL BROUGHT IN ON FREE BRIDGE — — Company ¢ emders sential T rucks| a to Mines 12 Miles from City. Owing to the difficulty of getting. coal from Illinois by railroad, the. Laclede Coal Co. todav started trans-| porting coal by motor truck from Twenty-first and State streets, East St. Louis, over the free bridge to this city. Four five-ton trucks were in operation. The round trip takes about two hours. O. Virden, manager of the com- pany, said he is seriously considering haujing coal direct from the compa- ny’s mines on the Belleville road, 12 miles from St. Louis, by mo- tor truck over the free bridge, unless traffic conditions are improved soon It is only a question of getting the trucks, he said. The company’s mines at that place have a capacity of 800 tons daily. tock SERBIANS HERE ~ ARE CALLED UPON TO JOIN THE ARMY ‘Head of Visiting Serbian War Mission Appeals to Men of : Military Age. by Cos- | Several clashes have occurred | Control | } | / own an- | GUESTS AT BREAKFAST _Entertained by Chamber of Com- : merce After Arrival Too Late for Victoria Meeting.

This dries the ‘scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is yery harmful. Just plain mulsified cocoanut oil (which is pure and entire- ly greaseless), is much better than the /most expensive soap or anything else ‘you can use for shampoing, as this ean ’t possibly injure the hair. Simply moisten your hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoon- fuls will make an abundance of rich, ,ereamy lather, and cleanses the hair ahd scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man- age. : a ou cam get mulsifted cocoanut oil at ‘most any drug store.

Ruesia is now Germany’s enemy, | | ude of France, is to prove that one has a reason for keeping one’s eyes | closed. France—France is the ene- my! Eduard Bernstein, who ts sincere- ly trying to justify the political stand taken by the German Social Democ- racy, draws the following conclu- sions: Were Germany under a demo- cratic rule, there would be no doubt as to how to settle accounts with Czarism. A democratic, Germany would conduct a revolutionary war on the Bast. It would call on the nations oppressed by Russia to reé- sist the tyrant and would give them the means wherewith to wage & pow- erful fight fer freedom. (Quite right!) However, Germany is not a democracy, and therefore it would be a utopian dream (Exactly) to ex- pect any such policy with all its consequences from Germany as she is. (Vorwarts, Aug. 28.) Very well then! But right'here Bernstein sud- denly breaks off his analysis of the- factual German policy “with all its consequences.” After showing up the biatant contradiction in the position of the German Secial Democracy, he closes with the unexpected hope that a reactionary Germany may accom- plish what none but a revolutionary Germany could accomplish. Credo quia absurdum. Liberty’s Helpful Foes. Nevertheless, it might be said in ‘epposition to this that while the ruling class in Germany has natural- ly no interest in fighting Czarism, and, quite independently of the will of the Hohenzollerns, the victory of Germany over Russia might result in the great weakening, if not the complete overthrow of Czarism. Long live Hindenburg, the great uncon- scious instrument of the Russian Revolution, we might cry along with the Chemnitz Volksstimme. Long ‘live the Prussian Crown Prince—also 'a quite unconscious instrument. Long ‘live the Sultan of Turkey who is now serving in the cause of the revolu- tion by bombarding the Russian cities around the Black Sea. Happy Russian revolution—how quickly the ranks of her army are growing! Was as Agent of Progress. However, let us see if there is not something really to be said on this side of the question. Is it not pos- sible that the defeat of Czarism might actually aid the cause of the revolution ? | sian war. As to such a possibility, there {s nothing to be said against it. The Mikado and his Samurai were not in the least interested in freeing Rus- sia, yet the Russo-Japanese War gave a powerful impetus to the revo- lutionary events that followed. Consequently similar results may be expected from the German-Rus- But to place the right political esti- mate upon these historical possibili- ‘ties we must take the following cir- cumstances Into consideration. Those who believe that the Russc~- Japanese war brought on the revolu- tion neither know nor understand historical events and their relations. The war merely hastened the out- break of the revolution; but for that very reason it also weakened it. For had the revolution developed as a re- sult of the organic growth of inner forces, it would have come fater, but would have been far stronger and more systematic. Therefore, revolu- tion has no real interest {n war. This is the first consideration. And the second thing is, that while the Russo- Japanese war weakened eczarism, it strengthened Japanese militarism. The same considerations apply in a still higher degree to the present Ger- man-Russian war. The Leaven of Revolution. In the course of 1912-1914 Russia’s enormous industrial deyvelopmert once for all pulled the country out of its state of counter-revolutionary de- pression. The growth of the revolutionary movement on the foundation of the economic and political condition of the laboring masses, the growth of opposition in broad strata of the pop- ulation, led to a new period of storm and stress. But in contrast te the years 1902-1905, this movement de- veloped in a far more conscious, sys- tematic manner, and, what is more, was based on a,far broader social foundation. It néeded time to ma- ture, but it did not need the lances of the Prussian Samural. On the contrary, the Prussian Samurai gave the Czar the opportunity of playing the role of defender of the Serbs, the Belgians and the French. If we presuppose a catastropha!l Russian defeat, the war may bring a quicker outbreak of the Revolution, but at the cost of its inner weakness. And if the Revolution should even gain the upper hand undar such cir- cumstances, then the bayonets of the Hohenzollern armies would be turned on the Revolution. Such a prospect can hardly fall to paralyze Russia’s revolutionary forces; for it {s impos- sible to deny the fact that the party of the German proletariat stands be- hind the Héhenzolletfn bayonets. But this is only one side of the question. The defeat of Russia necessarily pre- supposes decisive victories by Ger- many and Austria on the other bat- tlefields, and this would mean the enforced preservation of the na- ST.

An enforced disarmament for France, billions in indemni- ties, enforced tariff walls around the conquered nations and an enforced commercial treaty with Russia, all this in conjunction would make German imperialism master of theesituation for many decades. Germany’s new policy, which be- gan with the capitulation of the party of the proletariat to national- istic militariem, would be strength- ened for years to come. The German working class would feed itself, materially and spiritually, on the crumbs from the table of victorious imperialism, while the cause of the social revolution would have re- ceived a mortal blow.

BRAN-EATA is an original patented cereal food that everyone will enjoy—it combines all the strength-giving qualities of crisply toasted corn flakes—all the natural laxative virtues of clean, sterilized bran—all blended with syrup and sha into biscuit form—crisply toasted and ready to eat. The Food With A Purpose Although BRAN-EATA contains more than 50% bran, you would never know it by the taste, so skillfully has the bran been blended with other delicious and nutritive ingredients. But the bran is there—rich in those essential phos- phates, lime and other salts which are necessary to build muscle, bone and brain—and supplying a plentiful amount of roughage to assure regu- lar, normal action of the intestinal tract. Saves Sugar—Saves Wheat BRAN-EATA is already sweetened and saves Povtaee ced - sugar. It is ready to eat and saves cooking. 7 'l, a LE It contains corn flakes and bran and there- “4 fore saves wheat. And Bran-eata Biscuits are economical—six full servings for 10¢. Try Bran-eata For A Week Get acquainted with this greatest of all cereal foods—/earn what bran will do for you. Geta box from your grocer today—serve them tothe entire family—} udge them by the good they do. There are no substitutes for Bran-eata Biscuits —nothing to compare with them on the market. They are original and fully protected by United States patents. !

The meeting of the &t. Louis Foreign Language Newspaper Association on the occasion of the visit of Louis N. Hammerling, president of the national association, in aid of the thrift stamp campaign, was significant in proof of the extraor- dinary unanimity of our foreign-language news- papers in support of the war. Out of the clash and wrangle of national and racial sympathies and interests has come @ re- markable unity in support of the purposes of the United States in the war. The reason is clear. It is due to the high plane upon which President Wilson has placed our pur- poses and aims in prosecuting the war. He has led the nation in defending our own rights and liberties against military despotism to the defense of the rights and liberties of all peoples. Our war ¢|aims—our war platform—as defined by Mr. Wil- son appeal to the hearts and consciences of man- kind, to the deepest aspiration of all peoples, the aspiration for liberty and self-government—to all men who do not thrive on power and privi- lege. To this banner of righteousness, co-opera-~- tion and peace the people of the earth must rally. Americans of all origins who have tasted the fruits of free government and who desire that their kinsmen in Europe shal! enjoy its fruits can unite on this common ground. Of course, there are exceptions, but they are few. They prove the rule. This practical unanim- ity of the foreign-language newspapers on America’s cause in the war is peculiarly gratify- ing and valuable because the foreign-language newspapers can make a special contribution to the great service of the American press in uni- fying national sentiment and the mobilizing of our spiritual forces for effective warfare. They reach elements of the population not reached by the English-language newspapers—elements which have access to the populations of Europe, includ- ing the populations of the Central Powers. LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. Limited Cars in East St. Louis. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Your editorial in today’s paper cael. ing the attitude of East St. Loulians to- wards limited car service from other cities to St. Louis seems to contain a hint, sug- gestion or even threat that cars from and to such points should or could be routed otherwise than through East St. Louis. Citizens of Bast St. Louis would prefer to have such changes made, rather than to have them speed through the streets - of that town without stopping. Personally I don't believe that ‘the writer of the aforementioned editorial is familiar with all the conditions regarding the service in and through East St. Louis, else the article would never have been written. Now that we have your opinion on the subject, please be fair, and tell us can- didly what your attitude would be if the United Railways Co. should run parlor ears from Webster, Kirkwood, Clayton, Ferguson or any other point to a down- town terminus without stopping at any intermediary point to take on or let off passengers, while St. Louisans waited 10 ,to 20 minutes in all sorts of weather for g local car. ED. L. VENGHAUS. A Traveler’s Protest. To cho Hditor of the Post-Dispatch. I want to call your attention to the rot- ten treatment the railroads have accorded the traveling public this night. Practically no trains left the Urion Sta- tion, but no information was given by any employee that any doubt existed as to all trains eventually departing. Not unti) 4:00 a, m. Was any announcement made, and then at that hour the fact that all trains were annulled was cried. Hundreds upon hundreds of passengers . were affected. Every seat in the entiro @tation was occupied patiently awaiting thelr trains, which attaches had promised all night would be called. Large numbers of soldiers, in possession of bedding, made out to sleep on the floors. Among those who put in this useless nights’ vigil, were many women and children—in fact, the bulk of those waiting were such. It seems to me responsibility for the dis- graceful situation should be fixed. Cer- tainly there is some one who should be responsible in an emergency such as this and whose duty it should be to protect waiting passengers, and to prevent their being outraged as they have been tps night. It ig contempt such as this of the rights of the traveling public, that has turned the average man and woman against the railroads in recent years. M. R. BEVINGTON, Chief Naturalization Examiner. °4:00 a. m., Jan. 12. An Ex-Convict on Prisons. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. We criticise social, political and other conditions tn the so-called outside world, but a few people, except those experienced, realize the more or less inhuman treat- ment of those who made mistakes, which are only human. As one preacher once sald: “There are 60 per cent of you boys,” meaning convicts, “that belong on the outside and 50 per cent walking the Streets that should be in here.” So the public ought to realize the unfairness of individual treatment. Even the emall per- centage of hardened criminals ought to ‘receive a better compensation materially for their long confinement and suffering, which not only has reduced them to hard- ly 76 per cent efficiency, but tended to stunt their very souls. When they go out, ae they are more or less excluded from so- unhelped, and some in despair return to the old forbidden road. But for those that naruto slipped, mediately whom God surely forgave im ; ; is it right to make them slave for years z for a scanty board and under daily and . nightly strain, by rather Py rough and uneducated -. What does the public know of cell life, of entire loss of freedom, of terrible men- tal depression, sleepless nights, and its accompanying. physical maladies! . | weak-minded and cow- a oa or 7 oF revenatu and hardened, but the | 1916, Cafllaux published a letter denying in vig- -y| heard of him until last summer, when he was the sentiment of these elements with the nation- al sentiment of the United States, foreign-language newspapers, in conjunction with the English-lan- guage newspapers, can add tremendously to the potent moral forces which supplement the phys- ical forces working for the winning of a demo- cratic peace through victory. Unity of sentiment in war purposes and war work should result in the elimination of racial animosities and prejudices in America. We Americans representing all nationalities at war standing upon common ground and fighting to- gether for humanity and civilization, should put aside racial animosities and prejudices. We should discourage those who foment them. Fight- ‘ing for the principles of justice and liberty and free national co-operation, we should lay the foundation of enduring amity and peace betw all peoples. a ‘‘PRIVOLOUS’’ WAR REASONS. “Frivolous” is the word a German newspaper uses to describe the reasons for America’s declara- tion of war. It was frivolity which caused every American heart to burn with anger at every rec- ollection of the murdered babies of the Lusitania. It was frivolous to resent the piecemeal destruc- tion of our merchant marine. It was frivolous to refuse to send only one passenger ship a week to Europe and to mark that one with painted bands and keep the Stars and Stripes hanging at its stern. It was: frivolous to resent the plotting which would have set Mexico and Japan at our throats. It was frivolous to turn a sympathetic ear to the cry of Belgium’s ravished women and the plaint of her enslaved men. It was frivolous not to remain quiescent while the liberties of the world were being destroyed. It was frivolous to do anything but to stand aside in respectful aloof- ness while junkerdom was trying to overthrow every principle of fustice, humanity and inter- national law for which Americans have shed their blood since there has been an American people. It is perhaps to be regretted that there is a misunderstanding of the meanings of certain words as between us and the Germans. But if all these things are what the Germans call friv- olous, we should like to know what they would consider a serious cause for going to war! JOSEPH CAILLAUX’S TRIAL. Whether Joseph Caillaux really is an arch- traitor or is simply the victim of a formidable cabal of personal enemies, his arrest on a charge of treason was to be expected when the French Chamber of Deputies, on Dec. 23, deprived him of parliamentary immunity from imprisonment by a vote of 417 to 2. The mere fact, however, that a former Premier, former Minister of Finance, for- mer President of the Radical party and former army paymaster is in jail with such serious of- fenses alleged against him brings to light a tre- mendously interesting situation in France. Calllaux’s career has been a spectacular one. His rise to power was rapid. He became a storm center when he first proposed a radical income- tax measure. In the swirl of international poll- tics which preceded the present war he was active- ly trying to arrange a close banking and finan- cial alliance between capitalists of Paris and Serlin. Bitter attacks upon him in the Paris Figaro early in 1914 led to the dramatic assassination of Gaston Calmette, editor of that paper, by Mme, Caillaux. Her trial and acquittal in July was still the world’s greatest sensation when it was eclipsed by the breaking out of hostilities. Caillaux, who was a Sergeant in the reserves, was made army paymaster, with the rank of Lieu- tenant, in August, but was suddenly sent to Brazil on some mission, the purpose of which was never fully disclosed. : Soon after his return from Brazil in January, orous language rumors that he had been in- triguing with the Austrians and was trying to ‘separate France from her allies. Little more was accused of being close to Bolo Pasha in the famous spy affair and of being associated with Miguel Almeryda, editor of the Bonnet Rouge, among whose papers were found documents hinting at intrigues with the enemy. The culmination came when the French Ambes- sador and military and naval attaches at Rome complained of Caillaux'’s activities at the Italian capital. He was variously but vaguely accused of agitating for a separate peace between France, and AN ¢ EX-CONVICT. eén | fic over the same lines, the Interstate Commerce post-bellum alliance between them as against En- gland and Russia. Whatever the truth of the accusations against him, his forthcoming trial should clear up & great deal that has been going on behind the scenes in Europe for the past few years. OUR NAVY’S. SPLENDID The House naval inquiry was. directed editte- ularly toward the conduct of the Ordnance Bureau, but the committee, in the tribute it pays to the bureau's efficiency, has given the public the bene- fit of facts brought out in its investigation bear- ing on the general condition of our navy. It was to be expected, perhaps, that this inquiry would have more satisfactory results than some of the other inquiries in progress simultaneously. We have glways regarded the navy as our first line of defense. ~ | Then, too, the navy has opportunities in peace which are denied to the land forces. It is an active branch of service when the army is under the stagnating influence of lack of employment. “The organization of the (Naval Ordnance) Bu- reau in time of peace,” says the committee, “had been so developed as to make it an organization for war.” The methods of the bureau must be accepted as typical of the methods of other bureaus of the department, among which it cannot be assumed to be an exception. Practically all correspondence is answered on the day éf its receipt, the com- mittee found. The bureau’s sense of responsibil- ity does not end with the signing of a contract. A “follow-up” system is in force which acquaints officials with the difficulties encountered, the progress made and the extent of the departmental }co-operation needed for the promptest and best results. These methods are in lamentable contrast with thosé of some other bureaus having great re- sponsibility for the conduct of the war. That, in addition to meeting the enormously augmented needs of the navy proper, the bureau has supplied guns for 1100 merchant ships, many of them under allied flags, is a creditable showing in adequacy. Judging from the storm of criticism with which Secretary Daniels was assailed up to a few months ago, it might have been supposed that the naval record to date would be one of shocking inefficiency. That it is a record of splendid effi- ciency under adverse circumstances shows better than anything else the unfair and untruthful nature of that criticism. UP TO MB. M’ADOO NOW. Acting on the petition of towns on the west bank of the Mississippi for relief from railroad rates placing their traffic over Illinois lines at a disadvantage as compared with Chicago’s tratf- -" Commission ordered the discriminating abated. The text of the order seemed to give the rail- roads the option of lowering the rate between towns on the west bank and Chicago, which rate had previously been given the commission’s sanction, or of raising the 2-cent-a-mile rate be- tween towns on the east bank and Chicago. ™=s vo r oo a She 7 “~ “a Tae ‘ef. 2 v > os . ‘ >? = -/ Te po ay 228 b> * » Yr ahy o> o 8 ¥2 ) r 4 .

Judge Landis threw the case out. On appeal the Federal Supreme Court has affirmed Judge Lan- dis’ view. It added that the Federal commission’s rate could not be given precedence over a State rate established by law, “except where it is clear and is made to remove a disparity between a state and an interstate rate.” The decision is interesting as one of the few recent instances in which state authority has: been upheld in a conflict with Federal authority in railroad matters and because it was handed down after the Government took over railroad operation as one of its functions. Should the commission rescind its order against discrimination, the charge for tickets between St. Louis and Chicago might continue to be $1.33 more than for tickets between East St. Louis and Chicago. But if the order stands, as presumably it will, the two rates must be equalized. To do that, apparently, both must’be given the benefit of the 2-cent rate, as Counsel Folk suggested in the trial of the case in the local Federal court. In principle St. Louis wins its case. Just how the principle will be applied is a further point. As to that, much now depends on Railroad Di- rector McAdoo. DRAFT AND GRAFT. The curious discovery has been made that many members of draft boards, otherwise intelligent and well fitted for their positions, spell so badly that their usefulness is seriously impaired. It has been found that they fall down on draft, spelling it g-r-a-f-t. If the effects were only orthographical it might be put up with, but every time a board member puts a “g” where a “d” ought to be, in violation of the recognized law of phonetic change, it costs the Government a lot of money and the Govern- ments needs its money to fight the Germans with. When the draft boards were appointed it was supposed that they all were patriots and there- fore capable of telling the difference between draft and graft and the Government took a chance with them. A maximum of $150 a month was allowed for each member, exclusive of clerical help. It was expected, of course, that the members would be as punctilious about their minimum as the Government was liberal with its maximum, but the bad spellers among the members wanted to be as generous as the Government and they made out their expense accounts on the maximum basis, regardless of whether they had registered many or few. Gen. Crowder saw something would’ have to be done about it or there would not be any money left to buy guns and overcoats for the soldiers, so he made the drafters, spelled with a “g,”’ look like 30 cents. He made a new rule that boards should have 30 cents for each man registered and the members could divide it among them as they pleased, provided no one member received more than 15 cents and no two members more than 25 cents, If the Government wants to teach the drafters how to spell draft it might draft a few of the Italy and the Central Powers and proposing a| drafters who spell it graft. , | PROSE POEM. ACKWARD, turn backward, O Time in thy flight! Let us have peace again just for to- night. Let us contrast it, with all of its ills, to this time of war and its terrible bills. Are Wwe Pp rogressing, or say do we slip? Where are we bound, and how long is the trip? Is it for better, or is it for worse, and when shall our troubles desist and dis- perse? Sometimes we're tickled, and other times blue. Who would have guessed there was so much to do? Who would have said that to set the world ‘right half of creation would get in the fight?. Say if the Czar were a virtue or fault. Sometimes we wonder just what to exalt. What of the Kaiser, O Time past recall? Did he believe he could wallop us a1? The seas are imperilled, the land is a fright. The sky giveth bombs in the watches of night. The nations are busted, the millions are dead, and still the great war goeth blithely ahead. Hast read Mr. Wil- son, who went to the mat with Wilhelm last Wednes- day? What prospect of that? We find that we wob- ble, though doing our best. Turn backward, O Time, for a second of rest. We want to back up and come forward on low, reviewing the matter again as we go. One hurried adventure was hardly enough; we want to go smoothly, avoiding the rough. It still may be worth all we have to endure, but backward, turn back- ward—we want to be sure. * Heroic attempt to ease the food situation at Hurst, Sold Here. : Years ago, before ates hunting had been organteed and put on an efficiency basis, this one was one of the ee ee Sale Stable | : en?

It all depends where you are as to what you are called. In France they call you a “bomber” and give you medals, while in neutral countries they call you an anarchist and give you “‘life.”’ From the very start the Germans were well equipped with effective tombs and trained bomb-throwers, put the English army was as little prepared in this important depart- ment of fighting as in many other.

If the fuse took a notion tu burn too quickly, they generally »uried the bomb maker the next lay. So making bombs could not be" salled a “cushy” or safe job. Bombs Sometimes Returned. After making several bombs, the professor instructs the platoon in throwing them. He takes a “jam tin’ from the fire step, trembling a little, because it is nervous work, especially when new at it, lights the fuse on his striker. The fuse begins to “sizz” and sputter and a spiral of smoke, like that from a smoldering }fag, rises from it. The platoon splits in two and ducks around the traverse nearest to them. They don't like the looks and sound of the burning fuse. When that fuse begins to smoke and “sizz,”” you want to say good-by to it as soon as possible, so Tommy with all his might chucks it over the top and crouches against the parapet, waiting for the explosion, Lots of times in bombing, the “jam tin” would be picked up by Red Man Grows Rich. HE recent heavy contributions made by the Indians to the Second Liberty Loan has drawn at- tention to the large sums held by Uncle Sam for his Indian wards. There are several thousand Indian bank depositors in the United States, with total deposits of more than $18,000,000. Something in excess of $4,000,000 is on deposit for various tribes. The combined sum is held by 725 banks, scattered through 13 states. And the increase for last year alone amounted to $2,000,000. The Bureau of Indian Affairs in Washington has supervision over all this business, and it is the proud claim of the bureau that no red man has lost a single dollar of the,money handled for him.

America ought to send propaganda to Russia and the best propaganda would be shoes and such necessaries. All of North- ern Russia is suffering for want of everything for which they formerly depended upon the outside world. Such supplies as go over by way of Viadivostok always are intercepted at Petrograd if they get that far and never reach Northern Russia. It is estimated that 30,000 persons died in the north of Russia from starvation and privation last year.” Mmé. Lomonossoff hoped to form the nucleus of an organization for relief in Northern Russia, and she has the promise of the co-operation of Miss Jane Addams in such a move- ment. . Mme. Lomonossoff was not a pro- /fessional or working woman in any sense, just the wife of a professor of engiheering in peace times, but the first day of the war she put on a nurse’s uniform and did not lay it aside until the anesthetics with which it was her task to treat 10 or 12 patients every day affected her heart and she had to retire. HE report had spread that before T the revolution she had worked side by side in the hospital with the daughters of the Czar and I per- sistently introduced this subject for enlightenment. But all she could seem to remember about them was that they acted just like any other women.’ “T think the rumor that they are to come to America is preposterous,” she remarked. “If they should at- tempt to do such a thing, of course they will be terribly snubbed, for it is well known that they are every o-German.” Oe ucarée, I thought they would, audibly.

For example, I think at least 2,000,000 fresh women must enter American industry. N I women are directly replacing men in industry. About 1,000,- 000 women are making munitions. Two hundred and fifty-eight thou- sand three hundred women are working on the land. There are 10,- 000 recruits a month for the Wom- en’s Army Auxiliary Corps. There are 8000 women trained nurses and at least 60,000 V. A. D.’s.” ‘What,’ I asked, “are the V. A. D.’s?” ‘The full name of them is the Voluntary Aid Detachment of the Red Cross,” explained Miss Fraser. “And I understand you have nothing like them in this country. They are women who voluntarily’ § trained themselves to perform all sorts of hospital service, except the most dif- ficult and delicate nursing, for which England today 1,250,000 essary. IGHT hundred E. throughout England are now in charge of the V. A. D.'s. They care for all except the most se- riously wounded men, and for many of our sick. The V. A. D.’s work in detachments, each detachment in charge of a commandant. Certain detachments who have had three or six months of hospital training serve in the wards. Other detachments cook, others arrange and carry in the food-trays, others do the scrap- ping and the dishwashing. “Women of all classes work to- gether harmoniously in the V. A. D.’s. Punch printed a funny but true picture of two women in a VY. A. D. kitchen, and the little cockney girl was saying to the other, ‘Noy, then, Lady Alexandra, hurry up with those plates.’ Naturally, most of the V. A. D. work has to be done by women whe can afford to give their time without pay. I know so many girle and women serving cheerfully and faithfully as cooks and kitchen- maids who before the war never in their Mves prepared a meal or washed a dish. “When I asked if there were workers of this sort here I was told you had all the trained nurses you wanted,” Miss Fraser added. “I didn’t suppose any country ever had all the nurses ft wanted, and I'm afraid you'll find a lack of them of the hotels and shops are women. | They are in the quarries. Of course they are in offices and factories. Since the beginning of the war the Government has taken 83,000 addi- tional women into its civil service. Nor are these women all clerks and stenographers; many hold positions of grave executive responsibility. “Women are on all our important committeeg,’”’ Miss Fraser pointed out. “Two women are working with Lord Rhondda in national food con- servation. I should think you could very well use women in that work here. They think and work § in- stinctively for the interests of the housewife and mother. The author- ity of our food committees is yery strong, and we use it.”’ It has occurred to me that if our food censors had given women real power among them the average housewife might receive, in return for her pledged economy, something more helpful than an empty sugar bowl, increasingly expensive milk and “suggested” prices which hyp- notize no food seller. HAT advice have you for the American woman who wants to serve her country?’ I asked final- ly. “Tet her train, train, train,” Miss Fraser replied emphatically. ‘The a long course of preparation is nec-| oniy really brilliant thing accom- | plished by our women was that they hospitals | trained themselves for work long be- fore they were needed, and so were ready when the need came.

Tommy read the order—he read@s them all, but after he ignited the fuse and it began to smoke—orders were forgotten, and away she went in record time and back she came to the further discomfort of the throw- er. Then another order was issued to count, “100! 200! 300!” but Tommy didn’t care if the order read to count up to a thousand by quarters he was going to get rid of that “jam tin,’ becauge from experience he had learned not to trust it.

Pete Herman is coming out of his shell. According to Minne- apols dispatches, he has _ con- sented to meet Johnny Ertle for the world’s championship in a bout at New Orleans, Feb. 4. If this match goes through it will be the first title defense of the season for any of the cham- pions of the pugilistic world. This match was made neces- sary on the part of Herman when Ertle recently gave a de- cisive beating to Kid Williams, in the latter’s home town, al- most knockine out the former title holder. In the match by which Her- man acquired the title, the New Orleans bantam was given a 20- round decision over Williams which was generally discredited everywhere. Even New Oreans fans refused to wax enthusiastic about it, and practically every ringside authority agreed that Williamg had won.

The conundrum + vot ‘Russian negotiations’ Wall Street = has given up. But conjecture was left .» to busy itself with such questions as , the possible effect on incorporated in- ' dustries of the proposed discrimina- ‘tion, in fuel allotments for instance, ; nst ‘non essential industries,’ and . there Was the usual further array of doubtful questions, “All this affected today rather the smood of the market than its reasoned Fo eekened In the main, the market ".. weakened today because Wall Street 4 st not see anything on the imme- /'*’ diate horizon to put it up. ; “On a very inactive market, prices coy fetocks moved irregularly through- ' »eout the day, with the familiar down- . ‘ward tendency toward the closing, but even in the last hour, there were eg irregular recoveries which gave to ~* the general market an txtremely un- ¥ ,.eertain appearance. ~~" “The Mercantile Marine preferre] |. #hares showed positive strength dur- = ing most of the day; while one or two ).0f the tobacco stocks declined | heavily.

Copper prices were fixed at the “Government conference recently with the copper producers, for the next four months at 23% cents. Word comes from Washington that _ the Director-General of the Railroads will permit the purcHasing depart- », ments of the varivus lineg to place or- s ders for cars and locomotives as well _ 48 for rails, bridge work and other "supplies, The significant state.nent is made, however, that the financial condition of®the various roads will not “‘aterfere with placing of contracts for needed equipment.
