FRIDAYS CALENDAR
Always So With Women

When Mrs. Adam used to roam,
About her lovely country home,
She had a wide and swinging stride,
Uncramped by clinging garments.
She read no fashion magazine,
Her clothes we're suited to her
means,
and left her knees free to rise and
flee
From snakes and other varmints.
But when the fashions first were born,
Ewes daughters fastened to adorn
Themselves with clothes and furbe'
lows
That cramped their every action.
The more their husbands fused at
this,
The greater grew the ladies' bliss,
And newer styles aroused glad smiles
OF inward satisfaction.
When Jeremiah grew distressed
About the way the ladies dressed
And sternly cried that sinful pride
Had placed them all past saving,
The women left off baking pies.
And toiled like beavers TO devise
New things to wear TO make men
stare
And let them go on raving.
And so. though men may rage and
storm,
And writhe and preach on dress re
form,
They might as well go out and tell
Their troubles to the breezes,
For women still, with placid smiles

WELLINGTON BARRED
TOBACCO IN ARMY
But Even "Lancet" Applauds Its Use
Now.

LONDON, Nov. 1O.-There was a
time when the sender of tobacco to the
army would not have received the
thanks of the authorities at the war
Office. Such charity would never have
done for he Duke of Dellington. In
1S45, for instance, Wellington issued
the order: "The commander-in-chief
has been informed that the practice Of
smoking has become prevalent among
the officers of the army, which is not
only in itself a specie Of intoxication
occasioned by the fumes of tobacco,
but undoubtedly occasions drinking
and tipping by those who acquire the
habit, and he entreats the officers COM
handing regiments to prevent smoking
in the messrooms and to discourage
the practice among tie officers of jun
ior rank in the regiments" Today
even the Lancet applauds practice with
the pipe.
Alcohol used to play an important
part in the dietary of British troops
stationed in India On Nov. II, 1927,
the commander-in-chie of the Indian
army wrote to the war Office I'VE
have just received your letter respect
ing dram drinking There is one diff
ficulty in putting stop to the practice
which you have not contemplated;
that is, that it is physically impossible
for an old Indian soldier to stand for
morning before he has had his dram,
and that not of pure arrack, but
strongly favored with chrillies. l saw
an instance the other day of man
who had turned out before he got his
usual dose; he could not stand on
parade He went to his barracks,
primed himself, and was as we'll as
ever"

RUSSIA WOULD PURCHASE
PH|LADELPH|A's ICEB0AT

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 10.-The Rus
siam government, through agents in
this country, is endeavoring to purch-
ase the city ice-boat John Weaver, for
use in keeping Archangel, Russia's
most northerly port, open in winter
time
Whether the city will sell the ice
boat depends upon the action of coun-
ellis. The John Weaver is a propeller
ice breaker, built in 1906
Russia's naval experts have made
measurements of the vessel and find
that she is especially adapted for the
work in the ice at Archangel
They are ready to pay round sum
for the ice breaker at any time that the
city is ready to dispose of her.

100000 ARMY CANTEENs

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 10.-An order
has been placed here by representa-

100000 army canteens. Part of a
700,0 contract for harness for the
British army was sublet to several
saddlery manufacturing companies.
The Russian government, whose
agent was in the city yesterday, is
about to distribute an order calling for
approximately 100000 Illuminating caps
to be used in war operations in con-
nection with floating mines.
Inquiries on the part of the French
government were made for large guam
titles of surgical dressings and rubber
goods.
The Greek government is financing
it's purchases by means of an arrange
ment with a number Of American
banks to cooperate with the National
Bank of Greece. The large order for
canteens, which it is required shall be
made of aluminium, generally is credit
ed to the United States Aluminium

NEW Y0RK'S COLD STOCK

office claimed the remaining $25,000,-
600 in bars. Added to the gold which
was sent from Denver last week, this

transferred from West to East within
fortnight.
The movement is a record one for
50 short a period. 1t is said to mark

LITTLE KEN IN BIG JOBS.

One o. the great criticisms CT
the American Government is that
political Offices are too frequent
ly filled by inferior men. whose
character and capacity do not
properly fit them for the bust
ness OF passing just and wise
laws. These men creep into
Congress and the State Legisla-
lures by playing to the gallery
for votes and popularity, and in
stead of helping to pass good
greatest number of people, seek
merely to advance their personal
power ana prestige by advocat-
ing laws that ignore fundamental
principles of business and are
economically unsound and de-
st-uctive in their effect on every
toGr. Class legislation is given
in r turn for political debts, and
g0ccial laws are urged faVorlrg
political henchmen or pork bar
rel contractors at home. Such
advantage but are always dis
covered and eventually retired.
Those who have made long, hon.
OrabIe records in public life were
above this type.
Economic conditions a d II
themselves under most any kind
of laws, and in the long run, the
order of things is bound to
ecualiZe in some form of square
deal. Class legislation always re-
ats on the people who are sup
posed to benefit by it.
What we need in our legisla-
tive halls is a class of men who
do not seek to advance special
interests or who do not seek too
much personal prestige, men
Who are level-headed, honest and
urprejudiced on any social, polit-
III or economic question, famil-
lar with the fundamental princi-
rs Ct business and industry and
are willing to work for faVors

LONDON, Nov. 10-Modern fighting
strategy, at first rather helpless be-
fore the aerial and artillery factors,
is beginning to adapt itself to the new
conditions and along the great Aisne
battle front many fertile brains have
been busy devising schemes to meet
these problems. Probably the most
useful work of the aeroplane has been
the location of positions and conse-
quent direction of artillery fire often
resulting in terrible losses to the at
tackled army.
According to a distinguished Lon

ALLIES TRICK GERMANS
into WASTING GUN FIRE

my figures and guns are left in them
patiently awaiting the German aero
plane scouts. Believing he has dis
covered new position the aviator sig
nails to the nearest German battery,
and a storm of shells fall upon the
unoccupied trenches. 1t is usually
only after a great waste of valuable
ammunition that the trick is discov-
cred.
Another favorite devise is the in
vention of British signaller whereby
a heliograph can be operated at a dis
lance of two miles by means or teie-
graph wire. This heliograph begins to
send out messages purporting to ema-
nate from headquarters staff and be-
lieving they have located the brains
of the British army the German ar
tillery devotes its attention to the spot
marked by the flashes from the hello
graph. Sometimes the heliograph is
destroyed, but usually the operator
ceases work when the fire becomes Sc
heavy that no staff in its senses would
remain in the vicinity. A new appa-
ratus is set up in some position where
the staff would be Likely 49, remove

they advance as close as possible and

tactics are repeated.
