At a time when the country is ex- periencing a falling off in revenue and when it is being forced to consider new taxation for the purpose of meet- ing the large expenses which condi- tions make necessary, it is impossible to overlook the action which has, bgen taken by the citizens of Riponm, Wis- consin, where the ambition has pre- vailed for some time, as in many other cities of its size, to have a fed- erai building. This city, which has a population of 5,000, sought after a slice of the public buildirg appropriation and is, if the measure goes through as pro- to get $75,000 for a postoffice Recognizing that the coun- reater need for its funds in directions the people of that community have petitioned congress, ng that this appropriation be rned towards national defense. This is a bit of seif sacrifice, which will not build a battleship or provide for the maintenance of an army in e fleld for a very long period, but it helps in meeting such oltlays as the country must muke if it is going to properly protect itself. The best part of it all is that there is recognition of the fact that there no need for undue haste in the erection of a public building in Ri- pon. Su try has other h a proposition can wait. It is a large item for such a small 1t no more than others are see nd willing to take despite the better 5 which the money could be this time for the good of the country.

Austria claims that if the Russians had captured as many as they;claim- ed . there wouldn't be any Austrian army now. Yet from’the way in which Russia has gone forward in Bukowina .that appears to be about the size of it. When 1t is realized what an impor- tant part the aeroplanes are.playing in the new allled drive, it must be somewhat distressing for the heads of our army,to think of the meager equipment which is provided’for them to make a respectable showing. In view of the report that the com- mander of the submarine that. attack- ed the.Sussex, and his crew, are pris- oners in Scotland, there is more in- terest than ever in the further re- | quest that h3s been made of Germany to set forth just what punishment he received. THE STAY AT JORDAN'S Jordan’s was a fashionable summer resort. Time was when familles on neighboring ranches and dwellers in the nearby towns luxuriated for a month each summer under its magni- ficent oaks, reveling in miles of views, a delightful atmosphere and the pleas- ures that only a fine lake can give. That, though, was when tepees were the bed chambers and all out-doors was kitchen, dining room and sitting room. That too, was when Ruth and Lettie Davidson and their mother were regular visitors and knew and loved every foot of the beautiful nook. Good_old times, . those, but forever gone. It took money now to go to Jordan’s, a thing the Davidsons knew little about. Ruth, a teacher in the city, needed every cent of her salary. Lettie, 17, was counting the weeks till her 18tn birtnday. That important moment was to see her metamorphos- ed into a ‘“capable” and also into a breadwinner for the family. The majesty of the law was involved in he one event; the school board of her had promised responsi- ile, was assistant to amstress e ind before either ber, but was a mat- should be n t ving : out till Le ole had lon: T | THE | THE | By National i PRIMER the tide of barbarians 0 fromn i la or th erence slavery.

E. Dalgas, an engineer officer of the Denish army, was the leading spirit in the organization of‘the Dan- ish Heath soclety, which began to plant trees -throughout the peninsula, a movement ‘which,is still goinz for- ward which has proved to be the sal- vation of the land. Mountain firs were first planted and these were succeeded by red spruce from America. These trees serve as a living barrier against the flerce sand-driving ‘gales from the North Sea. The, interior of the penin- sula is fast losing its barren aspect, more” than 2,500 square miles having been redeemed by afforestation. Oats, barley, beetroots and rye are now. grown profitably, eattlo:and. sheep.find good pasturage,.and the: forestasteem with deer and wood pigeons. T¥pical of the growth of towns in this reju- venated area is Herning, a settloment of 40 souls in.1866 and now a thriving community with a population of 5,000. “Jutland has a familiar ring in the ear of every schoolboy, for he remem- bers that the Angles and the Jutes were among the first Germanic pcoples to emigrate ifrom_the shores of _!_a_\l_l}c and;sef e!’m;gflnn:.:,\’ ~ wealthy. She was a woman of quick perception, too, and with a will of her own. At the end of the week she came from the room where Ruth was packing. “Jennie,” she said, “you made a mess of your marriage.

They had been in the thick of it from 18,30 a. m. till 1.30 p. m. on June 2nd, right in the apex of the. Ypres salient, that bend in the line which had stuck out as invitingly to the Germans as the Verdun salient for more than a year. The Germans could arrange their guns in a fan-shape around it.as they could at Verdun; and they did. When their guns began to speak the British guns spoke back; and even the old in- habitants of the Ypres salient agreed that it was the worst ever. Nobody on the spot ever supposed that there were so many guns in either the Ger- man or the British army. But the officer inside the farmhouse sitting at the farmer:s dining room table couid tell all about it—his small part of it. He and his men had been in and out of the trenches on_ their shifts till they were quite used to the monotuny of the trench life and_the | daily wastage. The morning of June 2nd was very quiet. A general who was taken prisoner afterward was making an inspection. An occasional crack of a builet over head and an oc- casional shot in answer!
