England was kept In the dark for nearly three years. The people were blinded by the fatuous optimism of soldiers politiclans who, while eficlent in Ppeace, were incompetent in war. The people were not permitted to: know the truth, and when the truth findlly emerged out of costly blunders and sacrifice, they were loth. to acecept it. “I hope that America may permit her newspaper and ine writers to be absolutely frank about what ix going o!

For one thing—and we have found it out from sctual experience—it is a gréat stimulus for the men fighting in the fleld to know that they ‘are belng written about at home and that the country they are fighting for knows Pprecisely what they are doing. “Hvery man' with a pen in hand and a printing press nearby can do & patriotic service to his country by awak his people to the fact that this ‘war is beginning and that every -ounce energy, that every revolution of America’s vast indus- trial machine, ang, what is equally |. important, every sgallon of gisoline, ‘will be needed to hring the war to a wuccessful end.

Doyen . ‘Washington, June 29.—The United States marines who are going to France will think many times of the kindness of American women in adding’ to ‘their comfort and ‘health by Providing them with “extra gar- ments and comfort outfits, says Major General George Barnett, comman- dant of marines, in a letter received today by Mrs, James Carroll Fraser, chairman of the comforts committee of the Navy League. Every marine in the expeditionary force has been provided with extra woolen clothing knitted by the women of the Navy League. It was necessary to_rush this work thyough so rapidly’ that Colonel C. A. Doyen, in com: d of the marine expeditionary regim ‘in thanking the league for this ser- vice, said that the - quickness and efficlency of these volunteer workers seemed to him “little short of a miracle.” Here 1s Major General - Barnett's letter, . which is really addressed to each of the many thousands of Ameri- can women now engaged in this work under the direction of the comforts committee '0f the Navy League: Headquarters U. 8/ Marine Carps, Commandant’s Office, Washington. My Dear 'Mrs, Fraser: Let me thank you most sin- cerely for all you -have done towards furnishing 2,700 sweaters needed for the marines who are going to France with my first expedition. I want you to know that not only I, as commandant of the Marine Corps, but that all of the officers and men of the corps very greéatly appreciate your efforty and the efforts of those - ‘who assisted you in this great ‘work. I am sure that the men who are going will think many times of your kindness in doing 860 much to add to their comfort and health. Through you let me wish very much that you woulll Jet me have the names and ad- dresses of the different units that ‘Were working with you in. mlklllx . . sweaters, so that I may at least send my thanks and appreéiation to those units, ¥ I am sure that it will add. . very much to the efficiency of the men at the front to know that so many friends at home are ready and ‘willing to work for their comfort. Again thanking you maost cor. dially, Very sincerely yours, (Signed) GEORGE BARNETT, Major' General Commandant. GERMAN WIRELESS IN NORWAY. Secret Apparatus Found on Island 4 Outside Arendal, " Christiana, June 29.—In the inves- tigation into the German espionage system a pecret wireless station has been discovered on an island outside of Arendal, with a wide view of the sea. Suspicious characters have been arrested in various places in Norway, and many of them have been sent | scross the border because they were unable to give a satisfactory explana- tion of their doings. 3 In the Storting the government has been criticised for its lack of control over foreigners, ‘who travel unmo- Jested or work as laborers. The crew of the interned German auxiliary cruiser Berlin at Trondhjem have re- celved more liberal leaves of absence than the Norwegian soldiers mnllnt them. One paper urges & diplomatic bruk it Germany does not make satisfac- tory explanation of the bomb plots, disclosed by the arrest of Rautenféls and others and -the seisure of large quantities of explosives which had ‘been brought from Germany to Nor- way. Many Norweglans in the small coast towns, who have been acting as German consuls or agents, have re- signed. A aispatch from Vadgoe says that two' Russian mafl boats plying be- tween Archangel and Vadsoe have been left undisturbed by the U-boats, and that Russians favoring a separate peace assert there is a secret agree- ment that no Russian veasel is to be sunk pending negotiations, 'G.FOX & CO. ces on Pratt, Church and Trumbull Streets ”’;.Sample Hand Embroidered Scarfs, Made-up | Children’s Wear 75 Per Cent.
