HOW AUSTRALIA FEELS. As far as known Australia has not been consulted as to the manner in ‘which any of the campaigns of the al- lles should be conducted.

Thus it can be appreciated that the Sydney Teiegraph represents the at- titude of Australia when it resents the suggestion that the forces of the al- lies be withdrawn from the Gallipoli to chetk the oncoming forces of General Magkensen, who are endeavoring to open up the line which will give re- lief to the Turkish army, and declares that evacuation now would be evi- periinsula and sent into Servia dence of gross incompetence.

Mr. Converse is not the only bird lover ‘who recognizes the importance of do- ing something in behalf of the birds, | with for while he may be planning his ‘ef- forts on a large scale; there are those individuals throughout the state who respond in a similar way for the pres- ervation and encouragement of bird life in their vicinity, though it may be.more or less limited. There:are those who regularly provide nesting places and who take delight in throw- ing out the crumbs at all seasons of the year for the birds to feed upon. Such may be classed as bird lovers but they nons the less represent the great army who find the world bet- pretty and entertaining songsters. The idea of a bird refuge is nothing new, but it is to be hoped that the Stamford experiment will succeed and that the results will be all that is anticipated. LOOPING THE LOOP. The disposition to take chances whether any real benefit would result from a successful accomplishment of the act attempted, is confined to no one class, country or locality, not even to the sporting element. It is the same with aviation as with other things and while there would appear to be enough danger in the ordinary manipulation of flying machines with- efit to the state it promises excellent - results. - To put a gloes Iike new on white silk, wash and rinse well, then put into ‘water containing a methylated and iron whil ‘When a little tomato sauce is left in it.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR The Object of the Serbian Campaign. Mr. Editor: In your editorial in The Bulletin of Oct. 14th, entitled “The Drive Into Serbla,” I notice that you say in regard to Greece and Rumania, “Both of these countries know that if they are going to profit from the war, it is going to be through the wuccess of the entente allies” This might sound very well in the eats of these Balkan countries, but the ertente al lies have got to back up their state- ments with something more promises, and if Rumania and Greece join with the entente ailies and re- ceive a severe chastisement from the central powers, what will bec of them? Small wonder that the Balkan dtates are remaining on the fence as ie, so that they might big drive into Russia had reasons; ons was the selzing of Russian Poland, and the other was the winning of the Balkan states to her side. And in both she has been so far successful, for we find Russian Poland now in Teutonic control and Bulgaria now arraigned on the side of the cen- tral powers. ’ Builgarians claim that it would be defense of Constantinople, and the two kaisers With their hands on Suez—the throat of the British empire.
