Ambassador Gerard made i plain’ that he did not br a com- munication to this government from Germany endeavoring to interest this country in starting a movement for peace. It is likewise evident that the trip of the 1 was not for pur- pose of deliv: a mesdage of such a ‘character. Officials of both y @nd Great Britain, to say nothing of the latter’s allies; have been emphatic in their declarations that the war must go to a finish, and these nations have been taking the nec @ary steps to meet ncial Quirements in_that connection Germany’s latest loan was a suc- cess, despite the predictions to the contrary, and now the British house of commons has been asked to vote another bil m and a half for the car- rying on of the war. In making his application for this new credit Pre- mier Asquith -apparently thought it was necessary. to supplement the re- cent stitement of David Lloyd George regarding that country’s attitude to- wards the tall of peace pegotiations for he took occasion to say “This war cannot end in a patched up, precari- ous, dishonorable compromise, mas- querading under the name of peace. The allies are not vindictive, but they will require from their enemics ade- quate reparation for thé past and se- curity for the future.” There is no geiting behind the facts in this statement. Whatever talk there has been about peace, it is evi- dent from such a declaration, that it has not seciired and Is not getting any en- couragement in London, and with Ger- many eq determined it can hard- ly be claimed that the end of the war is in sight THE BAYONNE STRIKE. It is a most unfortunate situation which has developed at Bayonne, N J., in connection with th, rike of the oil and chemical work: The resort to force for the purpose of se- curing demands can get little sym- pathy and it is most distressing that conditions are such that lives arc taken and people badly injured in the preservatin of law and order. It cannot help being thought that those who are in charge of the strik- vorkmen have either furnished some bad advice or else they have completely failed in their efforts to suppress the viclous minded. That the men have a right to strike cannot be ried out in China, declared that Ja- pan would have the welfare and de- velopment of China at heart. This in view of the treaty between Japan and Russia leaves much to be demon- strated as to what will actually be done that will preserve the independ- ence of the Chinese. . As to this country Terauchi asserts that there will be no agsression against the United States unless the dignity and vital interests of Japan are attacked, that Japan is perfectly satisfied to have this country hold the Philippines and that there is no de- sire on the part of his gountry to step in and take control there. This does not indicate a warlike spirit on the part of the new premier but rather a disposition to seek peace and pursue it and it is of course to be hoped that such will characterize Japan's action whether he or someone else is at the head of the cabinet. THE CHAMPION RED SOX. Nothing throughout the whole base- ball season arouses fandom like the world's series. The championship con- tests In the respective leagues do not fail to get their share of attention but when the two best teams in the country get together to decide which is the better there is assured some of the greatest ball playing that can be seen. As world’s champions the Boston American league team had gonc through the season displaying their old time form. They had given con- fidence to their supporters that they woula be able to successfully defend the honor and the masterly game which they have played in each of the five contests in the world's series this vear justified the faith with which they were backed. In the retention of the world's cham- pionship the Red Sox are entitled to it. They played much more consistent ball than their opponents, and while many would liked to have seen the honor go to Brooklyn for the benefit of the game, it must be recognized that the better team has won. Bos- ton played a strong uphill game at all stages, which was in marked con- trast to Brooklyn especially in the last two games. Not by any Juke but by clever ball playing does Boston retain the banner. The Red Sox are a clever azgregation . of baseball artisis who with their manager deserve the honor which goes to them, while it must ba fully realized that it is no disgrace for Brooklyn to take second honors to such a team, PROTECTING THE REAR. It has been apparent for'a long time that Greece has not been movins fast encuzh towards war to suit the en- tente powers. Ever since the allied forces landed at Saloniki, by. permis- | sion of Premier Venizelos, pressure | has been exerted to bring that country | into the war. Gradually Greece ha been ylelding but it has been slow The allies secured st impor tant advs brough about the demobilization of the Gre: army that the danger of that forc being turned agair m might bel overcome, 5 nce been moving more re Greece has failed to b self into | full sympathy with the entente an otiations which have been un- | rway have I | t is because o®this and the reali- tion that the menace rear of to the the & entir of th rende and cert llied Iy rmy come, o 1 uance which was taken torces in tur Greex garrisons been but the allies realize that e bush and they have no disposition ke any further chances with th dawdling CGreek government.

Greece at last appears to have a cabinet that has profited from the ex- perience of others. | With the arrival of much cooler weather, the odor of the mothball is zain abroad in the land. The Italian generals must be con- vinced that their men fight better af- ter periodical breathing spells. That southern judze who declares that bad boys need the rog more than vy do the court must be a firm be- liever in the essence of birch, From the way in which those passes alons the Transylvania border change hands it is apparent that they do not bear the usual word ‘“non-transfera- -ble. Considering the recent submarine success, it is possible that Germany would be willing to stage one of those North sea fights off the New England coast. The Rumanians have put a stop to the advance of the Teutonic forces in Transylvania, which indicates that they can fight better in their own questioned. They cannot be forced to work under conditions which they will not accept, but that does not give them the right to destroy property, to attack¥by missiles and firearms those whose duty it is to maintain order or to encourage riots and bloodshed. The folly of such methods have been fully demonstrated in the past and the duty of those who are directing the strikers in the demands which they are making is to urge them to an orderly conduct of their strike. Ba- yonne appears to be having a small revolution and certain sections of the city are unsafe for the public to visit, but it is apparent that conditions are ,such that a firm policy must be ex- ercised. Rioting strikers cannot be tolerated and the soomer those in Ba- yonne are brought to this realization the better it will be for all concerned. PRE! R TERAUCHI'S POSITION The new premier of Japan has or- ganized his cabinet and he has made » statement regarding certain features f the policy which it is intended to follow. Premier Terauchi has been called to his new post from his dutles as governor general in Korea. The fact that the emperor dssignated him lo form a cabinet has not won the approval of many of the lwmders in Japan and both in and out of his country his recard as a militarist is fully known. In the interview which he granted, Terauchi, as if suspecting that his ac- tors in Korea might be interpreted #s meaning that such would be car- backyard, The demand which the French ad- miral made for the Greek navy and the quick, favorable response indicates that the whole thing was fixed up ahead of time. The captain of the British ship Strathdene says that his ship was fired upon without warning. There are a lot of other sea captains who can sympathize with him, The man on the corner says: Very few people have trouble enough with which to entertain an audience, but there are a lot of them who can keep individuals spellbound. - . What is the German submarine commander going to depend upon to insure the safety of humanity after it has been set adrift in boats, if no United States ships happen to be around? There were some of the Mutual Wel- fare Leaguers who left Sing Sing without even resigning as Mr. Os- borne has done, and who thought bet- ter of it and returned. Possibly Mr. Osborne will yet change his mind. Walking out from in back of a ve- hicle directly in the path of another, or possibly an auto, has resulted in many deaths of late, It shows in- stances where too little care is exer- ciseq by the individual in crossing s wiry plants cushion over vhich sand w: a very practicable r n some pia where too loose and deep for were and © the watered positions which they took up some miles in front of Romani the ritish were ready and waiting for | them.

As for gossip, it's awful! When I lived in town I could do as I wished and nobowy patd any attention to me, but out where we are living at present the interest one excites is wonderful. I have half a mind to move back.” “What on earth have you been up to now?" Simmons asked with amuse- ment. “I never thought you a person to keep a town awake with your ca- pers. In fact, I should have called you a model jittle man. Out with it and you'll feel better! “What's the use of being what you call & model man when folks will tallk about you the first chance they get " Henderson asked, bitterly. . "It makes me feel like kicking over the traces and beating my wife or something so as to live up to the reputation I am rapidly acquiring. “Well, go ahead and tell me about You see, my father came to make use a visit” Henderson began his story with a sigh. “He’s used to stir- ring times and when he's at home he lives in a small city where there's enough going on to make it entertain- ing merely to sit at the window and look out. He landed hefé during the hot spell and, of course, he and my wife stayed in most of the day. Father broke his glasses and couldn’t read withcut them, so when my wife was Dbusy. there wasn't much for him to do but sit at the window and look out. “He did not find this very interest- ing, and when I came home he said he neyer saw so dead a place in his life, nobody passing for nearly an hour and awfully stupid. I couldn’t stand for that, because we are proud of our little village and think it's a flourish- STORIES OF THE WAR New Features of War in, Egypt. Unique features of warfarc were de- veloped, according to military men, in the recent battle of Romani in Egypt in which the tish defeated _the Turks, the invaders losing some 9,000 in dead, wounded and prisoners out of their total of approximately 14,900 men, as has been told in cable ad- i The crossing of the Sinai lesert with biz suns and otner war cquipment during the heat of summer was an unprecedented achievement.

These | sert a the y decided that he would 1 length of time and then force the issue if the Turks had not dvanced. It seemed almost like a forlorn hope that the Turks, with their astute German leadership, would be led to an atiack on the Romani posi- tion, for whole country in this sec- tion’ is covered with great steep dunes, some of which cannot be citmbed in ces because of the sliding sand: All these dunes were well protected by the British. However, as had been hoped, at midnight' on August 8 the Turks began the attack which ended in complete disaster for them on August 5. Just what persuaded the Turks tos try to take this apparently impregna- ble position is a matter of considerable speculation. Some express the opinion that they were misinformed as to the nature of the battleground. Others think they misjudged the British strength and hoped, despite the diffi- culties presented, to take thes position and establish a base fronf wnich_they could work against the canal. How- ever, that may be, they were cleverly arawn into the sand dune trap. They fouzht bravely ana tnefr ar- tillery shooting was very accurate and effective in places. but no body of at- tacking troops could hope to fight their way through these dunes when opposed by artillery, machine guns, cavalry and entrenched ‘infantry The Turks suffered from lack of water since ‘they had to advance from their base laden as lightly as possible, Both sides undoubtedly underwent al- most the limit of human endurance from the great heat. The climax of the battle was the charge of the Anzac light horse who arrayed themselves on a ridge some two miles and a half in length and hurled themselves down upon the Turks who were stragsling forward in the sandy trap, and were defenceless against the terrible on- slaught. The general opinion is that the Turks must have proved to their own satisfaction that while ‘thev might bring troops across the desert. yet they could hope for no success during the hot season unless they had com- munication railways established back of them. For this reason, it is be- lieved, that they will not venture to attack again in force during the stwm- mer. A Turkish prisoner of war, a major who was captured at Romani, gave the correspondent-an explanation of the Turiish’ expedition: The major de- clared that it was merely a reconnoit- ering force sent out to pave the way for a real advance which would take place shortly. The 14,000 men were to size up the British stfength and make preparatfons along the way for the bigger army which was to_follow. But his somewhat startling dssertion lost same of its force when a fellow offi- cer sitting bestde him made an:inef- fectual attempt,to hide a smile, | he ing town, with lots of life for such a small place. “The next day was Saeturday, so I got home early and slipped around to the back door and_into the house without being seen. Down cellar I had an old suit that I wear when I carry out the ashes and I put that on and an old disreputable hat and walked past my own house twice. I could see my father sitting in the window 100k- ing out, so I knew that he saw me, but without his glasses he could not rec- ognize me. When I went in again I changed the outfit and put on an old overcoat and a fur cap and promenad- ed agaln. You can imagine that I was a little warm with the mercury at 96 that afternoon. “It showed your devotion to your village,” said Simmons. Yes” sald Henderson. “Then 1 went back and got into my palm beach suit and raincoat and, pulling my hat down over my eves, walked up the street and back again three times. I found my wife had gone out, so I wds able to get to my room to get what T wanted, and T found it amus- ing to ring the changes on the small wardrobe that happens to be mine, borrowseg a few things from my father's closet occasionally. It grew to a regular game and I enjoved it thoroughly. “When I thought father was suffi- clently impressed I gave 1 _up and went in. I was beginning to meet peo- ple who were coming from the 4.10 and I was willing to let them be the ob- jects of father’s attention for a while So_that I could cool off. “When T went in by the front door, boldly and making a good deal of noige as If T were just coming from the 4.19, 1 found my father very much excited because he had seen several men g0 around to our back door and was sure he had heard somewhere upstairs steps that worrfed him. It took me over an hour to show him there had been no burglary, particularly as ne was cer- tain one of the men had gone oOff wear- ing his new smoking jacket. But that asn't the worst.” “Let’s have it. “We get it everywhere now,” hen- derson said, sadly. “You see. I met a lot of people coming from the 4.10, as 1 told you. Well, it seems that some of them recosnized me and you can imggine how it sounds to say that Henderson was seen going along Main street in_a winter overcoat with h hat over his eves when the thermome ter stood at 96. > “Then, too, there was a nefghbor of ours who sits at her window most of her waking hours and sees everything that has or hasn't happened in cur town. 1 don’t wish to be unreasonab'e, me her for think- 0dd that I shourd weem find my own house on a rnoon she £o T can’t exactly bl it unable very declares T fovr fo her certain Jze, and that when I ceme out I séemed uncertain what T had to do and went right back That is the way things are | and T don’t know whether it will er to move away or to stay and down.

He has “quick intuitions” —so quick that/they are frequently wrong, and have to be charged with suden completeness. He has the “power to guess almost on,the spur of the moment”—but with dadgerous fre. quency he guesses wrongz. For more than a year he guessed wrong on how to deal with the sub- marine question.

THE WAR PRIMER By National Geographic Socloty If Szelely-Udvarhely proved as hard for the Roumanians to capture as is the mastery of its pronunciation for Americans the latest entrants into .the world struggle achieved quite a victory recently, when, according to despatches from news sources of the Entente Allies, the Transylvanian town was occupied. Concerning this Ynteresting town near the head waters of the Great Kokel river the National Geographic society gives the following information in a war geography bulletin issued from Washington. “Most of the 8,000 inhabitants of the thriving little industrial town of Szekely-Udvarhely, the capital of a county of Transylvania, are Szeklers, !

Well, dom't bother. If your stomach is in a revolt; if sour, gassy and upset, and what you Jjust ate has fermented into stubborn lumps; head dizzy and aches; beich gases and acids and eructate undigest- ed food; breath foul, tongue coated— Just take a little Pape's Diapepsin and in five minutes you wonder what be- came of the indigestion and distress. Millions of men and women today know that it is needless to have a bad stomach. A little Diapepsin occasion- ally keeps this delicate organ regulated and they eat thelr favorite foods with- out fear. If your stomach doesn’t take care of your liberal limit without rebellion; if your food is a damage instead of a help, remember the quickest, surest, most harmless relief is Pape's Diapep- sin which costs only fifty cents for a large case at drug stores. It's truly wonderful — it digests food and sets things straight, so gently and easily that it is really astonishing. Please for your sake, don’t go on and on with a_weaig, (disordered stomach; it's so unnecessary, —_— one of the many Kinspeople of the Magyars about whom there has been heated controversy for years. Szekely- Udvarhely is in the heart of the Szelders, 430,000 of whom are closely settled in the mountainous region ex- tending from Kronstadt on the south near_the Roumanian border, fo Ma- ros-Vasarhely to the northwest. “According to the traditions of the Szekely-Udvarhely citizens themselves, the Szeklers are descended from 4 band of Attila’s Huns who settled in this part of Hungary after u severe reverse of their leader, perhaps fol- lowing his great defeat by Aetius and Theodoric on the Catalaunian plains, near the French city of Troyes, on which occasion the number of slain in_one day’s fichting was varously estimated at from 175000 to 300,009, But a much more interesting account of the Szeklers origin and one which wakens in them a more responsive chord of patriotism is that they were Magyars who were transplanted to rugged region in _the eleventh century to .act as a frontier guard ainst the constant encroachments of the Pechenegs and other savage tribes that threatened the kingdom of Hun- gary. Ladisieus 1 is credited with the scheme of this frontier guard, and it was only one of the many acts dur- ing his’ reign which made him the most widely beloved ruler of his coun- try during the middle azes. All Hun- gary was plunged into mourninz fo three vears after his death, which oc- curred in 1095, and he was worshiped as a saint long before he was form- ally canonized. “Szekely-Udvarhely is 45 miles north of Kronstadt and about the same dis- tance southwest of the Gyimes Pass one 'of the rocky, northern gateway between Roumania and Transylvanis The important Saxon town of Sege: (pronounced Sheggesh-var, but pre- senting fewer linzual iculties 1 ted by its German name Se only 30 miles by.rail to ihe +"Was noar the 1 tier city, that the great Hunga 1y poet Petofi fell in battle with the Russians in 1% His body was nev- er found and it is assumed th Youth (he was only 25 at the 0 his death) " was buried in ihe fnon erave of the Honveds (1 | Fian soldiers) in the nearvhy e of Feherozyhaz. welve miles to the east of Szel Iy-Udvarhely athe of Hom- or springs popular for thei n ios. “One traditions Udvarhely is that the t derives its bifurcated name from the fact tha at one time Attila was went fo hold his court here, Udvarhely meaning ‘place of the court'.” LETTERS TO THE EDITOR .

In twenty-five vears our Connecticut game birds will have de- parted into oblivion with the once- numerous_carrier pigeon, and offer like the above will be in order. Last winter was a hard one for the birds, and the few survivors had aiffi- culty in raising their broods on ac- count of a wet spring. Therefore, the game birds this year are even more scarce than in previous vears. It is distinctly up to the present-day sportsman to do his part toward thc conservation of our fast-vanishing game birds. Although much has been done toward the advancement of game propagation, the results accomplished have been far overbalanced by the number of birds killed. This year marks a crisis in the game conditions of our state; therefore, brother sportsman, when you go into the field this year remember the faic of the wild carrier pigeon. Kill onl a few birds this year; or better stii put a closed season on birds and giv¢ them a chance to recuperate.
