DOG Days are over for the year
1914, that is, so far as most dogs are
concerned, but Jack, a big white bull

week. In some un%accountable way
he was struck and run over by an
auto, the wheels passing over his
hind legs. He rolled around in the
dust Of the street and his cries soon
brought several little boys and girls
to his side, ranging in age from three
to eight years. Jack was able to
reach the side Of the road where he
lay down in the grass, surrounded
by his small but very sympathetic

Surprising a great battle Is fought
all along the line of the French and
German frontier, in which the allies
are uniformly successful; that is to
say, the German army is worsted to
such an extent that it cannot again
take the offensive. Surprising after
such a battle Kaiser Wilhelm and his
advisers, seeing that the game Of az.
gression has shot its bolt, endeavor to
come to immediate terms. What are
the conditions Of peace for which we
must ASK,
France must have the line of the
Rhine as her new frontier. She will
take nothing else as the return 70.

GUM must have rectified the viola
ton Of her frontier and also compen-
sation for 1.-The immense damage IL
flicted on her population. England,
II we cannot destroy it by fighting,
must insist upon the surrender of the
German fleet, for. without the destruc-
ton or surrender Of it, any peace
would be a hollow sham.
Probably England and France
would insist upon war indemnity,
and. at the other end Of Europe, Rus
STA will also demand territory and
guarantees for the future. These
must be the minimum terms for the
allies. They must seem severe, but
they are essential to the maintenance
of peace in the future.
Now, does any n for a moment
suppose Kaiser Wilhelm will accept
these conditions Just because the Ger.
man offense has broken down? I:
would mean the loss of his remaining
prestige and probably Of his throne an
well. What will happen then? We
shall be called upon to assume the of.

UNNECESSARILY add to the difficulties
OF the military situation.
In such a case Lord Kitchener's
plan to raise 100000 men is of vital
Importance. France has already mo.
bilized to almost her last man, and
the brunt Of the fighting is about to
fall on the French army. Their loss.

Jane Arson. Her maiden name was
Ellen Louise Arson. She was edu-
Gated by her parents and was grad
uated from Shorter college in Rome.
Ga. Her father was the pastor of the
Presbyterian church in Rome.
Married In Birthplace.
In 1885 Thomas Woodrow Wilson.
then young lawyer, and long a
friend of the Axsons, went to New
York and took Miss Arson back
South with him. They were married
In the parsonage Of the Independent
Presbyterian church at Savannah,
where Mrs. Wilson was born.
Mrs. Wilson discharged the duties
of the household without assistance
for more than FIVE years, and even
while mistress Of the White House
she took a keen interest In the man.
agement of its affairs.
Mrs. Wilson was never socially In
clined. The Wilson's always have
lived simply, without flourish. Mrs.
Wilson insisted after she became the
first lady In the, land that 1t was
possible for her to dress In keeping
with the high position which she held
on $1,000 a year. She always de-
signed her own dresses and those of
her three daughters.
During all Of her married life Mrs.
Wilson found time to continue at
her painting. Her canvasses are in
the Art institute. Chicago. In New
York, Philadelphia and Indianapolis.
But while always attracted toward
art, philanthropy was her hobby.
Shortly after going to Washington
Mrs. Wilson began study Of condi.
lions in the poorer districts. Stun
ming parties were conducted and II
was not long before q change for the
better became evident.
Perhaps the most striking example
of Mrs. Wilson's simplicity and dis
like for society and social functions
was the abandoing Of the inaugural
ball and other semtpublic affairs
which had been considered part OF
the obligations of presidents wife.

as 1t least t7;67s,012. counting only

According to Dean r. 8. Shaw 81.b
