There is nothing tp break the speil: not a sound penetrates from outer London. Horace Walpole would be writing a new “Castle of Otranto” be- fore he was here five minutes. And. indeed, the Thelemites seated round the table in the refectory are doing, as Rabelais planned, just what they like that is to say, they are devising s to make things pleasant for overseas officers in the several clubs in the neighborhood. These are the American club at § Chesterfield gar- dens, the Canadian club at 8 Chester- field gardens, the New Zealand club at 35 Hill street, the South African and Rhodesian club at 48 Grosvenor square, -The Australian club is a little farther off, at 138 Piccadiliy.

H But the signal triumph of this “as we were” hospitaiity lles elsewhere and makes a plegsant tale. Lady FHilda Murray and Sir Ernest Hatch, the in- | spiring and organizing spirits of the | “Beyond ~ Se: organization, were | struck some time ago by the thought that they had left somebody out. This | somebody was the overseas woman; the wife of the overseas officer, and she who had come to England to nurse or do other war work. “At this mo- ment,” they told themselves, “she is sitting in lodgings, wanting compan- ionship, longing perhaps for something to brighten her dull leisure hours” They resolved that she. too. must have a club, and that it must be a club worthy of England.

We walked over the duck-boards, and entered one of the huts, where we met' Major Flint | of the Yale Medical school in command | of the unit. And what a welcome we got from the fifteen Yale physicians and the eighty Yale boys under them and even the fiteen Connecticut train- cheer, which latter. no doubt. aston ished our friends the énemy In their trenches in the distant hill “Yale should be proud of her hos- pital, which has the henor of being closest to the front line of any hospital in France. It speaks well for Yale and the Yale spirit of servicz that this ploncer organization has been aceent- ed by the United States Government as the model of its kind and that Ma- jor Flint has been put in charge of this division of the Army with thee rank of Lieutenant-Colonel.” OTHER VIEW POINTS By a strange irony, the champion dog-hater of Connecticut appears ie be the man who occupies the post of Commissioner of Domestic Animals. The dog is 2 domestic animal, and the Commissioner has more power over the dogs (apd _through them, their owners) than ever czar or kaiser and he is using that power more despoti- ally than ever the czar or Kaiser. Whether he means it or not, he is pushing through a brutal program that, carried to its conclusion will mean the extinction of every pet dog in the state of Connecticut. Some people think that the Com- missioner's programme is deliberate and intended. Others think that he does not realize what he is doing. But to the doge—or their owners—his mo- tives do not make much real differ- ence,—the effect is the same. Now, if the Commissioner held an elective office, and he were now com- | ing before the public for re-election. | we should guarantee him certain sup- | port. He would get the . votes: Of every sneak thief; of every burglar; of every tramp: of every ruffian; of every second-story worker; of every yezg-man; of malefactors in general, and in particular those human beings with warped minds, who. seem to ex- trac a most poisonous and perverted | pleasure out of the infliction of any kind of torment on any dumb animal, brute, beast, or even on such of their own kind as are unfortuate enough to ingredients not found in any other powder. 250 at the Vinol and cther drug stores The Comfort Powder Co,, Boston, Mass.
