It is with regret, of course, that American soldiers should be taken Prisoners before they have besn as- signed to any definite place along the bagtleline in France or Belgium, and while they are getting their final in- structions i trench warfare. but such of course was to be anticipated. It is part of the great war business and it is to be realizea that our soidiers are ne more immune than those of other . countries. As members of a patrol . party they were engaged in dangerous werk but it is work that has to be dome and it iz training that must of neeessity be had if they aré going to %egp proper watch of the ememy and to adequately protect their own posi- tioms. The circumstances under which they were taken are not likeiv to be as- certained at an early date. What- _ever information they may have ee- curetl is going to be kept from their comrades and their officers by the fact that they are prisoners. It is in fact mot going to be learned whether they wern over zealous and failed to exercise Adue eaution or not, but their capture is due to arouse their com- rades to a deeper realization of the services which must be performed. They are fully aware of the grim bu: in’ certain rudiments of fighting and they have now been made aware In a new way that the ememy for the samec purposes that are, and that they must be just bit the cleverer to win. The capture of this patrol is therefore not going to be depressing but it will serve to arouse the American troops to greater determination than ever. ANOTHER STRATEGIC RETREAT The fact that the German forces which have been fighting so strenu ousiy for the keeping of the French from getting the full benefit of the Chemin des Dames plateau, have fallen hack upon the north bank of the Af- Jette river along a fromt of about 15 miles shows the real meaning of the, recent French success in thelr drive which captured Malmaison and other vantage points in that region. This move, following the largé loss in men and guns which was suffered at the hands of the French, indicates plain- iy enough the realization of the peril in attempting to remain where they were: They had gool reason to an- ticipate that Genera! Petain would his recent advance and they were not disposed to take any further chances. The French have been bit- ing into the German iine at that lo- cality in a manner which placed the. . Germans in a serious position and a { strategic retreat was the only thing ‘which would save the army. How extensive this giving of terri- tory is going 1o be remains to be seen. The French are brought so .much mearer to Laon, but the wedge whieh the British have driven into the line further merth makes it ovi- dent that it will not be long before the same sort of a move will have to be made there, for as surely as the French have forced this retreat fo « the Allette. the British are sradually driving them to it east of Ypres where they will not have to push for- ward a much greater distance before the Beigian coastline will have to be abandoned. The Germans heve ecer- tainly started on the backward move- ment again, even as they 4id from Bapaume and Peronns, but it cannot y be told vet where it will stop, REDUCING THE U-BOATS. ‘While every eumbl-(hilkr :t v-w-‘: of n.wtnll‘ new lllu. order to meet tramsportation ts as well a5 th combat the with_the ‘large number of _vessels whieh are getting past the underwa- ter boats and the big tonnage which is being put forth to replace those sunk that there is a diminishing prospect that the submarine policy will be able to accomplish what was expected of it. Although he made no direct men- tion of that fact, the reference of Lord Geddes to the destruction of more swbmarines In the past three months than in ail of 1916 is open to the in- feremce that this country through its devices and destroyers is playing its nart in healing the U-boata since it is within that time that our help hi been furnished. But whether it is tin Job Offfce 35-2.| through American or English opera. tions, or the combined effects of both, it is gratifying to learn that the sub- marines” are not having evervthing their own way. RUSSIA NOT QUITTING. It was an unfortunate statement which Kerensky made when in refer- ring to the load which Russia has been carrying and the handicaps which it is experiencing at-the present time, fe permitted the impression to get abroad that his country was ready to or was getting ready to quit. It is to be remembered that Kerensky did not say in so many words that Rus sia was to get out of the war. He referred to the fact that it had en- tered the war early, that it was worn out by the strain and that the allies must now do more than they have heen doipg in bearing the burden and this led to the hasty eonclusion that Russia was going to drop out, ar- ~ang> a separate peace or somethins like that and quit the war. Such, however is not the fact and-it was only the incomplete manner in which the first report of this statement was iandled that such an interpretation ~5uld be placed upon It. And even |in that Kerensky does not say that lussia is going to quit but the con- tions in that couktry and the disor- anization of the army taken in con- .nection with his statement encour- aged such an idea. What Kerensky was unquestionably endeavoring to cmphasize is the fact that Russia needs help, and in spite of what it has been getting it needs more. It faces mot only the conduct of the war but it has enough futer- nal tsouble to require ail its attention even if no war existed. But even if Russia_engages in no offensives at a time when such could be carried on with zood results, it is mot believed that it will get out of the war. The present zovernment has committed itself to stick to the end and the con- fidence of the United States therein is duly reflected 1 the additional credit whieh has been granted it at this time, BY ALL MEANS ACCEPT IT. The Bestbn Symphonv orchestra has been given much additienal and not 2itoxether favorable puyblicity be- raussa of the stand which has been taken by its leader concerning the playing of the Star Spangled Banner.

This dpesn’t place the director iIn a very faverable light. He has con- tended that the nmational anthem had no place in such a programme as the orchestra gives and ‘im. fact the pro- grammes are made up long in ad- vance. - Ne one will cantend that the Star Spangléd Banner is in a class with eperatic and classieal music and under ordinary eonditions there would be no thought of asking for It, but it is ridiculous to eclatm ‘that a place cannot be found for it. There is far more reason for it than there is for elimina‘ing German operas, . which some peopie are ciamoring for, and if Director Muck cannot find a place for it on his programme or is not willing t0'lead the grehestra when it is played then the only thing to do te aceept his resignation amd do so at onee, even If he is a great director and musical artist. ~ There is ilitle chance that the work of some. of the great German com- posers il ever be discarded bpcause of imternational complications’ but un- der existing conditions Director Muck or any other leader of such a musical organization ought to be able to sp- preciate American feeling and respond seeordingiy. There s apparently no danger that it weuld make him any the less loval to German: 5 for our national anthem can be mad in mest any programme i thero is the disposition. EDITORIAL NOTES.

SUGGESTIONS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE ‘Wood ashes are splendid for remov- ing flower pot stains from the win- dow sill. Every family should own at least one thermos bottle and two or three are better. It is a good idea to keep a piece of sandpaper over the sink to clean pots and pans with. Frocks of a delicate color always look better if washed in bran water, no soap being used. Lime powder well sprinkled over a place where cockroaches abound will drive them aw Mix bluing with hot water before adding it to the rinsing water and the clothes will not streak. e When the zinc tops of fruit jars are no longer useful’ burn them’ in the kitchen range with a view to clearing the chimney. There are square dishes of porcelain that will fit into the refrigerator, and much more can be put in than if you use all shapes and sizes. Use a rubber tipped scraper instead of a knife for scraping plates before washing them, and one unpleasant kitchen noise will be eliminated. Crisped crackers are always sood with salad. Dip them in cold water, butter one side, then brown in a hot oven. Unbleached muslin, with a eross- stitch bordered in old blue, makes de- lichtful and cheap curtains for a hed- room. To keep silver that Is not in_ use, wrap each piece separately in tissue paper and then wrap all together in flannel. Insist on having every “speck” of the trimmings from the meat you pur- chase; they make soups! sood foundation for Plant the seeds of dates and oranges if you would have some unusual and irteresting house plants at no ex- pense. If the shoe polish becomes hardened in the tin box, do not moisten with water: use ‘milk, and it will improve the polish.

Nothing is so requisite as a sound night's sleep every night in the yea: For an adult nine hours in bed with eight hours’ sleep are none too muci Quletness, darkness and good ventila- tion of the bedroom are essential. f fresh air, dress warm- but do not “overwrap,” and eat and sleep reguiarly. A person taking these Frecautions in time will be saved from probably two-thirds of his usual share f winter colds. Get plenty Golfers, or those who tramp much agter a hard day outdoors, éften suffer from tired feet. They will get great relief if they rub the feet with equal parts of lemon juice and alcohol well blended together. Callouses on the feet will'be made iess painful if they are cared for every night. The soles should be soaked for ar least ten minutes in warm water. A piece of fine pumice stone is then taken and the hard spots are rubbed until the soft flesh is reached. Then they are annointed with vaseline and a little pad of absorbent cotton bound on to prevent the grease from rubbing. Ir the morning more vaseline is put on and, if possible, a corn plaster, the Fole enlarzed pot to press on the cal ious, is put around. If the latter &7 not practicable, wearing soft feit soles in the shoes will give relief. Soaking and iubbing should be done every night if the treatment is to be efii- cacious. A BREAKFAST ROOM. I you have a little room that seems to be impossible for amything else, why not convert it into, a little breakfast room? Breakfast is usually such a disjointed meal, one eatipg at one hout and the rest at another, that a little cheerful room where one can breakfast at auy hour without disturbing the main dining room is a comfortable convenience. The expense need not be very large, 0od taste and a little time being- more i this case than actual dollars and cents. Such a room eeen recontly was so charming, so delight- fully quaint that the family got in the habit of taking their lunch there, too, using the dining room only for the main meéal. The walls were of a vel- lowich cream color and the furnifure consisted of a table and chairs painted « dull olive green. Yellow nasturtiums decorated the backs of the chairs and the sides of the table. Hand paintel furniture is of course rather ‘expensive but a vicarious painting can be effected by cutting out the flowers from wall paper, past- ing them on the” furnituro and go- ipg aver all with wvarnish. Cheese eioth was fised for the curtains, gen with a double thickness of vellow. A simple centerpiece consists of a bowl, green or yellow, holding either yel- low flowers or a green fern. A few shelves were run around the walls and on these were placed bits of china and pottery in colors to har- monize with the room. A few potted rlants placed or: the window sill and the aadition of a in its cage oi giit all heiped o make the room 2 spot of beau’y and cheer. Could one find a room better fitted in which to start the day? DICTATI! OF FASHION. Most fur trimmed sujts have coats of three-quarter length. WOMAN IN LIFE AND IN THE KITCHEN I : serge frocks with smart effect. Puthpe and spats Wil be more than ever the proper footwear. Obi sashes are one of the Japanese features frequent in dresses. There is no doubt that satins will be prominent in winter fashions. The smartest of sailor shapes.have shorter brims in the front. Velvet and short-haired furs will be vsed for ceremonious soilettes. Cyclamen-colcred chemises of crepe de Chine are the latest note. There is a sugszestion of the Em- pire line in some of the new gowns. Tan, brown »nd gray are in faver for smart footwear for autumn. Narrow belts of leather are smart if worn with tailored costumes. Short coats are worn with frocks that are widely banded with fur. CHANGE HANDKERCHIEF. One often wonders what one can do with the money for church collection or carfare. This dainty handkerchief solves the problem. A large Irish cro- chet rose is overhanded two-thirds around one corner of the handkerchief and a tiny crochet buiton and loops made to fasten this miniature pocket ior change. The edge of the handker- chief is finished with Irisa picot or any edge desired. NEW AVIATION SCARFS. These new scarfs are of one color homespun lined in Scotch plaid and cdged at the erds with varn fringe. The hewest feature is an ample overlay collar that may be _pulled about the head as g hood. or if worn as a scarf this section forms ax at- tractive square -collar, the corners of which fall jus: over the shoulder cages. TEMPTING DESSERT. Did you know that one delicious wey of cooking rice for dessert is to nee fruit juice to eook it in. such as you have left cver from a can of fruit or stewed fruit, instead of wa- ter? Rice Ccooked in raepberry juice cor syrup left from canned or stewed raspberries is delicious and attractive, as it takes up the color as well as the flayor. Served with cream, it makes a dainty dessert. Cook it in the pro- portions of one tablespoonful of raw rice to one-third or slignt more of cup of the juicé. USE FOR BLACKBOARD. One woman says: “I have a black- hoard hung in my kitchen and I copy the recipe I wish to use out of my book book. I find it saves comsiderable time and helps one to memorize the recipe, as I do_mnot remove it from the board until I am going to use an- other.” SEWING RO®OM AIDS. Keep a small pincushion hanging on the machine with pins and needles in it For an extra large hole in stockings fit a piece of netting to the hole and darn through the meshes. In making children’s dresses make the sleeve straight and put a casing on the underside about one inch frozm the hem. These may be run with rib- bons and removed when washed, mak- ing the ysleeve easy to iron. When the eves are tired- and smart talie a basin of water, dip the face in and when the eyes are completely un- Ger water open and shut them. Do this once’of twice’ and find how Te- freshed they feel. To make a knee or stocking pro- ector for bov, cut off the upper part 0f'a pair of shoes. Thsu lay a plait cn cither side of the back seam any stitch the outer edge on the sewing ma chine: this one stitching will hold plaits in placs and protset the raw cdge at the same timo. Wrap _this around the child's knee and lace up under the knoe. If the shoe has hooks it is ever better. for it is much easier to hook it tham to lace. ALL ABOUT COLOR. Midnight biue holds its own. Black is in Cemand by those who want to dress well in the afternoon and evening, hut it does not hold a high place for street suits or frocks.

THE WAR PRIMER By National Geographic Society. Church of St. of such world-wide fame as the thedral of Rheims, and although lacks the sectacular historic assccia- tions of the great structure which saw the culmination of Joan of Arc’s of forts, the Collegiate Church of i Quentin, so recently ravaged by the Germans, is one of the finest Gothic structures in all France’” says to- day’s war geography builetin _issued ty the National Geographic Society concerning the burning of the St Quentin structure after it had been stripped of its art treasures by the invading vandals “Situated to the east of the Ilotel de Ville, the Church of- St. Quentin suffers from the fact that it is (or was) closely surrounded by numerou: smaller and unattractive buildings making it imposeible to gain a com- prehensive view of the structure. Un- like the cathedral at Rheims, whose west facade was its chief glory, the Church of St. Puentin has no west facade, but terminates in this direc- tion with a tower and a portal of 1’omanesque arghitecture. The sia- tues which formerly decoraied tre portal have disappeared. “One of the odd features of thi great structure, which is 370 feet long und 180 feet high. is its double tran- septs, rarely found in Gothic churches. “The choir of the church closely re- sembled that of the Rheims cathedral, and was quit: elaborately decorated with polychronic paintings, while in bas relief on the beautiful choir screen was depicted the story of the martyrdom of St. Quentin. “It_took four centuries to complete the St. Quentin cathedral and per- haps four hous to destroy it. Work began in 1114, and the choir was completed in 1:57. The nave was finished two hundred years later, and the south portal in 1477, ‘Strikingly beautiful features of the buidings were the seven apsidal chapels_and the wonderful stained glass windows in the principal tran- sept. “In the 11th century ervpt (rebuilt in the 13th century) werc the tombs and stone sarcophagi of St. Quentin ond his fellow martyrs Victoricus and Gentianus.

There has been a consistent tale from our men of brave fighting by the etemy. One officer told me he saw a | hine gunner who within ten yards ted witlr his fingers trigger of his ma- | chine-gun. Our men simply made Iul!‘au:ht at him. There was no time or need for orders, the men made up their minds for themselves and swung 1t in, a fair number dropping, but within a few second they reached him, killed him and passed him. Scores of such smali fights occurred, though the Germans generally gays up when our men were within 20 yards. Our men were nderfully cocl. coming uj, tp ask officers some | qrestion, speaking naturally. and without hurry through a thick bar- rage. No troops living coud have re sisted them benind that barrago. #mhe Cermans in the front line who were waiting to attack were slmply over- run.

He found three big Vietorians just looking down into the trench. He told his captors he could not support the disgrace of capture, as he was to have been pro- ioted captain next day. From a captured order we know that lines, of German assault-troops were waitlng in No Man’s Land. They had not delayed the advance one min- ute. The orders to th German pattalions were: “Units will advance with fixed bayonets. and will assault lcudly shouting, ‘Hurrah!'—experience ha proved that the TEnglish have rever been able to withstand an at- tack of that sort.”” Another order instructed stretcher- hearers to work under the Red Cross flag, “as the Erglish always respect it 3 OTHER VIEW POINTS Warning has been given to govern- ment food officials that potatoes have ieen bought up in large quantities o1l through New England and are ap- serently being left undug or to rot on ihe ground.
