ENTRANCE Willy
TURK IHTO WAR A
BIG SENSATION
OFFICIAL WASHINGTON EXPECT
ED ACT, BUT SOME ALARM is
FELT BECAUSE OF PROBABLE
FAR REACHING EFFECT UPON
THE BALKAN STATES.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Oct 3o.--Turkey's en-
trance into the field of warlike opera
tons, though not unexpected, has
caused a sensation in official circles
here because of the probable far
reaching effect of this action. Prob
ably no one factor in the great Euro
pean struggle is regarded so uncer-
tain quantity and quality as the Tur-
kish empire. The proba bility that by
yesterdays act of war against Rus
STA, the Balkan states may be drawn
into the great conflict, thereby cutting
off a vast quantity of food supplies has
brought home 20 the officials here the
realization Of the interest of the United
States in this last development.
The result of Turkeys entry upon the
scene as a belligerent as viewed by
the military experts here from pure
ly technical point Of view will be to
greatly embarrassed Russia at the out
set.
In official Washington for months It
has been known that the Ottoman gov
eminent was preparing for military
operations. No dispatches have been
received from Constantinop1e in sew
eral days
Ambassador Morgenthau previously
had reported the activities of the war
party, the efforts Of the large COM
mercial interests of Turkey, already
weakened by previous wars to pre-
serve Turkeys neutrality and Of the
critical conversations between the Tur-
ktsh foreign office and the diplomatic
OF the belligerent
countries.

TURKS WE'RE PREPARING.

Diplomatic representatives in Wash
ington of the allied powers have be-
lieved from the outset that as soon as
Turkey had fully prepared her army
and navy for the conflict she would
cast the die for war. Great Britain,
Russia and France have. through their
ambassadors, made it plain to Turkey
it is understood, what the consequences
of her entry might be. They are an
derstood to be that the Anglo French
fleet, which has been comparatively
unoccupied IN the Mediterranean would
lombard the ports OF Asia Miner,
Greece would probably join the allies
against Turkey and that the Balkan
states might be drawn into the gen
eral imhrogIio with the possibility that
Italy might be found fighting Turkey
as well.
That the conflict might extend to
Egypt, Persia or Arabia with the pos
sibility of the Japanese fleet support
ing operations Of the Allies has been
discussed here in quarters friendly to
the Allies.
When reports were current Of war
among Musselmen in India, 1t was
made clear that Japan would offer her
services to Great Britain, feeling that
the spirit of the Anglo-Japanese allt-
ance compelled her to support her ally
in maintaining the special interests or

BEST WAY TO PUT UP
A CHRISTMAS TREE

THE best and easiest way to put
II up Christmas tree has never
been patented or published-in
fact, it is so simple that it could not
be patented. Having failed one Christ
mas eve to provide suitable foot or
base for the family tree. necessity COM
PEELED me to invent one. because the
two youngest members of the family
would not hear of Christmas without
a tree.
So | sawed the butt of the tree
square, then trimmed off q few of the
lowest branches and set the tree in a
good sized stone jar. The jar was then
filled with stones, pebbles. pieces of
brick and coal. All this material was
packed down firmly and the position of
the tree so adjusted that it stood per-
fectly straight
When the tree was in position little
Gretel had a happy thought Let us
give the tree some water" she said,
''just as if it were a big flower And
we filed the jar with water Then
we covered the stones with bits of sill
yer tinsel and artificial snow, and now
our tree looked as If it was actually
growing in big jar
From time to time. as the water was
dra wn up by the tree. we reflled the
jar. and the result was that we kept
our tree green and fresh for month
Since that year our Christmas tree is
always put up in that way. and we
can keep it as long as we wish A
tin pail, Il tub or any deep vessel can
jar, and pieces of coal or coke can be
used instead of stones to hold the tree
in place

Japan's Paper Underclothinq.

The japanese are now making I'M
derclothing of finely crisped or grained
paper, the New York Weekly states.
After the paper has been cut to a
pattern, the different parts are sewn
together and hemmed, and the places
where the buttonholes are to be
formed are strengthened with calico
or linen. The paper is very strong
and at the same time very flexible.
After garment has been worn few
hours it will interfere with the per-
SEPARATION of the body no more than do
garments made of cotton fabric.
The paper is not sized, nor is it i'm
permeable. After becoming wet the
paper is difficult to tear. When an en-
deavor is made to tear it by hand II
presents almost as much resistance
as the thick skin used for making
gloves.

a piece of fruit cake or book or
magazine cover made from bits

as we'll as getting time.
Teach them particularly to
think of children whose nests
are less downy than their own.
There are SO many such. And
there is no more tragic thing in

ten on Christmas day. Is there
any picture on earth so appealing

 The State department has been making every effort to induce Gen eral Carranza to be represented at the conference and to agree to the decision of the mediators, but so far he has refused to join in the peace conference and today's information is the first that the department has had regarding the possibility of the reb- els joining with the United States and Huerta in an effort to make settle ment.
