How Connecticut with its 195,000 head of cattle, sheep and swine, as estimated by the 1915 census of the United States department of ag- riculture, compares with the activi- ties along these lines more than T years ago is shown by this committee when it states that in 1345 there were in this state 162,717 sheep, 206,225 cat- tle and 139,000 swine.

It is folly t6 advance the claim that the railroads of the country are to blame for the freight congestion and lack of transportation facilities exist- ing at the present time. A careful in- vestizgation into the merits of the case will show that the railroads have been doing their utmost to overcome the sitnation which has developed through np cause of theirs. They have execu- tive heads who are working ceaseless- Iy to overcome the trouble and it is impossible to belittle their accomplish- ments especially when it is realized how great are the handicaps under which they are forced to work. Measures which have been put into effect which have greatly reduced the car shortage. This has been done through providing new rolling stock but also by getting better results from 1hat which is already possessed. Need- less trains have been eliminated, ship- ment of caricad lots have been re- quired, larger and heavier trains are being hauled, the speedins up of the leading and discharging of freight has been accomplished and now the rail- road war board is to undertake the operation cf the lines in the east as if they were all one system.

Bernhardt, standing at the head of her profession with inter- national ¥ame is quoted as having said: “What is it all to being a sol- dier of France?” It is not wealth of literary accomplishments which have made the world better and better fot man to live in, but the action of the men who do and dare. The men who face the foe are the saviours of all nations, and. not only the preservers of the sovereizn ideas which increase individual freedom, but the extenders of it to the oppressed everywhere.

In front of some of the Canadian troops there was a number of fansed tree slumps called by the sylvan name of Friesland Copse. They ex- pected one or two machine-guns there but found a nest of them. It was a iornet’s nest, not easily routed out. The German machine-gunners kept up a steady stream of bullets across their fleld of fire, and the Canadians suffered in trying to rush the place. Small parties of them assulted it w grim_courage. and when they fell. or tcok cover in shell craters, others| made their way forward, trying to get round the flanks of the position.
