Even those who are affected if they are the right kind of patriots and want to do their part the same as others will be entirely satisfied to do their part in that way as well as in cthers. The very fact thata person holds a velitical office furnishes no excuse for skipping him when it comes to col- lecting war taxes which are supposed to be levied upon all people. It is a well known fact that office holders whether national, state, _county or city are as a rule pretty well paid for their labors. The income tax should apply to them the same &s to other salaried men and the action of the lower house of congress in this re- spect must be regarded as based on the policy of fairness and justice to all. B T | LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Army & Benefit to Young Men. Mr. Editor: I would like to have a space in your paper to tell the benefit of the army.to young men. I have found out by experience, and experi- ence is the best teacher, that the army is 75 per cent. buiter than the city. - In the city there are so many things which will make some young men g0 wrong and forget God, home, church and aimost themselves, but in the army, instead of ruining the young man, builds him up and makes a man of him. It will mean much profit to him in the end. In the city there is the saloon, poolroom and numerous other piaces not the place for young men to go, but the army has nothing like that. The army builds up the fallen, the outcast. and makes men of them ‘all. It develops: the-brain and gives the voung man a good thinking pbwer, but of all things young men should not forget God.

There can by 10 question about the ability of the central powers obtaining peace right now if they want it but’ they must understand that it can be obtained only on the terms which the allies have put forth. There can be no German made peace or snything that resembles it.

It shows a speeding up that is certainly encouraging. Not knewing where he going to strike next, General Foch is keeping the enemy on the anxlous seat and the worry is having its effect. When General Pershing starts to mosey up the Moselle the German high command might as well pick up stakes and retire back of the Rhine. Even if Lenine and Trotzky have not delivered Russia into Germany's hands, getting Russia out of the war was worth all that it cost the impe- rial government.

But what | described as a regular_i regularity was attainable, and wdk { teature of the British training, which he had al imposed upon his ow quadron. Such, for example, was the immediate cleaning and dverhauling of | every machine on its- arrivtl in the aerodrome. ‘The general practice was to leave such tasks for a convenient moment, but he emphasized the im- portance of having every machine on nding taken instantly in hand and rendered again-fit for further use without the least delay. He instanced the spotless cleanliness of the British lorries inside and out, no matter how dusty the journey or their abiding place, as typieal of the wonders that can be achieved by ideais and disei- pline. The attack of which he told was upon an enemy aerodrome, which had | for some time evaded discovery, so cleverly was it concealed in the ground of a chateau. The chateau served as headquarters of the squadron officers, and the hangars were hidden in the| edge of the woods about the house. The American squadron, which was €scort to the bombing machines, dis- covered some half-dozen aeroplanes on the ground, most of them with their propellers running. The American machines circled about e field, sweeping it with the fire from their machine-guns, till every one of the enemy machines was blazing, and the men attending them had either been shot or driven into the wood. By this! time bombs had been dropped on al the hangers and on the chateau itself. The Americans in this squadron scored in the first fortnight in August | 26 victims, All its airmen are imbued with the British insistence on the of- fensive, always and under all circum- stances—so much so that two of them, finding themselves cut off by 20 of the enemy on their retwrn journey, instead of trying to seek safety in flight. swept up at the German machines, which were all above them, and so rattled the enemy by their unex- pected daring that they actually brought down four of his machines, and, though finally shot thémselves, were able to affect a landing behind our lines—8pecial Correspondence to the London Times. A memorial has been addressed to the British _government by the Anti- Slavery and Aborigines Protection So- ciety praying that he king may . be advised to prociaim at an early date the abolition of the legal status of | slavery in German East Africa. The memorial states that upon the outbreak of war there were approxi- mately in German East Africa 185,000 slaves, and that these were being so slowly emancipated that less than 3,- 000 were set free cach vear. It ex- presses the conviction that by making it clear that Great Britain is reso- lutely determined not to tolerate slav- ery under her rule she would enhance still further her moral prestige among the peoples of Afica and indeed among the native races of the world. ~ In addition to the signatures of tie officials of the society the memorial bears those of bishops, peers, heads of religious societies, members of Parlia- ment, and other public men There has been some activity in the Vasges_sector duting the past few days. While the Americans hive tak- en the villige of Frapells and at cer- tain small points improved their posi- tions, the Germans have organized a number of local raids in which they have been regularly defeated. The German sneers of two months ago regarding the Americans have be- come the fears of today. They have learst an instructive and di {igreeable lesson. Meanwhile new and excellent units are regularly arriving from America. They have only one fear, as they express it, and that is that theé “war will be finished before we get a chance to make the Germans hike it to Germany.” In the raid in the Vosges yesterday the Germans advanced in three col- ums, but were driven off by combined fire from rifles, machine guns, and ar- ance by sending 2600 shells into Fra- pelle. Since the Germans adopted their present methods of hoiding their for- ward positions only with scattered posts, which are often a very long distance is advance of the main line of resistance, we have consistently made it very uncomfortable for those ad- vanced posts. The Germans seem to have thought that we should always attack in force, when the advanced posts would hold us up and give warn- ing to the real line of defence be- hind.

The German Press publishes the fol- lowing telegram from Stockholm:— By order of the Czecho-Slovak au- thorities, the body of the ex-Tsar, which had been buried in the suicides’ cemetery, was solemnly re-interred in consecrated ground, in the presence of thousands of people from Ekaterin- burg and the surrounding country. Herr Maximillian Harden, in an arti- cle in the Zukunft on “The Will to Right,” moralizes upon the life and death of the ex-Emporer Nicholas, a destiny, he suggests, with which the fate of Louis XV compares as a Watteau compares with a Memling. The world, he says, will not forget that it was Nicholas who pracured for | the idea of disarmament a resounding annunciation and that the opening of s for him as the dawn of life. Retrospect may di cefrn in his character many signs of flickering weakness, but no ignoble trait of will.

Nicholas Alexandrovitch, whom only light minds can already name the last of the Tsars, the last even of the Gottorps, sought to establish peace firm as a rock, summoned the nations to disarm, and banned alcohol from Russia. That he willed these three things history will some day write down to his credit in her book.

But Russia is not dead yet. Never forget, he continues, that the might of Russia, still ungainly and like a child, cannot be *broken from with. out,, nor, as our generals testify, has it been broken even in this war by any superior strength of Germany; only from within has this power been par- alyzed for a season by the incom- prehensible miracle or, it you will, by the poison of Leninite world-com- munism. Hardes The Brest treaties, Herr declares, are a crime, the unredeem- able sin of Austro-German diplomacy as represented by Count Czernin and Herr von Kuhlmann. The “Wyo” News, published ‘“spas- modieally" on board the T. S. S. Wyo- ming, reflects the abundant cheerful- ness and the earnestness of purpose which inspire the seamen of the Amer- ican Navy. The first two numbers are brimful of wit and humorous allusion, much of which appeals esoterically to the members of the ship's company, but there are some pithy sayings also which everybody can apgreciate. Thus, “Opportunity knocks once at every man’s door, but never picks the lock,” and again, “When you are eat- ing your stew, think of the boys in the trenches and you will ‘think you are eating at Delmonico’s.” Some verses entitled “Nostalgia™ tell of the sailor's yearning for home: What good to learn new idioms, “Old thing” and quite alright,” And “two and six” and “Blymme,” With Broadway out of sight? _ The second number has an interest- ing article on the king's visit recent- ly to the American fleet, and printed very lightly over it is a half-tone por- trait of his majesty in uniform as an admiral of the fleet. The “Wyo" News also contains several comica} illustrations.—London Times. : German | | to bed late, T either hadyto go hungry jor satisty healthy Young appetite at a confiserie.
