istry of the United States Department
Of Agriculture holds that the label is
no obstacle against such products be-

commerce they must be so denatured

Another opinion deals with pros

George II. Jewett, whose return from
London Thursday evening was MOTTO
ed in Fridays Journal found time
during the day to call on old friends
in the Journal office. Quite naturally
he was most of the time piled with
questions about the war, but it was
with difficulty that we could gain
much information, because, in spite of
the fact that he was formerly a news
paper man and with the Journal he is
still a modest young man.
By constant questioning, however, it
was ascertained that he had gained by
observation, conversation and reading
during the war period up to the time
of sailing-Sept. 22-many impressions
that are practically new to our people
and decidedly interesting they are.
It was not because Mr. Jewett was
not interested that he failed to be
walking war encyclopedia because he
is decidedly pro- English in his view
of the situation-but the English peo-
pie as a rule have been kept in the
dark even more than on this side of
the Atlantic. And many of the things
he mentioned were not allowed to be
sent out as news.
One thing that has been impressed
upon him from the start is that every
Englishman is emphatic and united on
the fact that it must and will be a fight
to a finish and until the bug-bear OF
Europe, the threatener of the peace OF
the world the German Emperor, is
crushed and removed from the. scene.
That decision is final.
The spirit of patriotism that now
prevails England is something so re-
markable as to be almost unbelievable
to an outsider. During the first few
weeks of the war, all the news was
suppressed and the grumbling became
loud and louder. A change in that
policy came and with it the announce
ment of the gallant work of the Brit
ish in the great battle of Mons. That
turned the tide and there came such
rush of volunteers that they could
not be taken care of. Thousands and
tens of thousands of men stormed the
recruiting offices and the genuine pat
ri0tism was evident everywhere.
The recruits in England have been
so numerous that they had to be drill
ed during so much of the day, without
