 Omnibus Drivers Are Heroes
 The London motor bus men who vol- unteered at the beginning of the war Tor service with the communicated buses which are responsible for most of the feeding of the troops are the most envied men in the army. They are doing highly skilled and highly responsible work, and Kitchener was determined that they should receive pay commensurate with the responsibiI- ity of their duties and the risks which they have to run. Each of these men received bonus of $125 on joining and received $17.50 week as pay, in ad- dition to his rations and clothing. When one reflects that their pay in civilian life is only about $10 a week one can easily see that they are en- thusiastic over their job. There are about 1000 of these London men at the front, and. of course, many thousands more drawn from other parts of the country. A territorial who is now serv- ing in France wrote home the other day that he had ride on bus from the line which he took every morning going to his work at home, and that the boards advertising the American play. Potash and Perlmutter" had not been removed from It.
 The work of replacing these buses and the other motor vehicles comman- deered at the beginning of the war is making the motor trade one of the busiest in England The manager of q large factory near London which spe- cializes in commercial vehicles, told mo yesterday that his factory is now run niDg with three shifts of workmen right round the clock. The motor cycle firms last week divided an order for 5000 machines placed by the Rus sian government and the Belgian and French governments have also placed heavy orders in England. while. of course. the British government is buy ing heavily.

told the German military experts as plain ly as print could tell them that British troops were in Antwerp.
 Preparing for Zeppelin Raids"
 About the only use that Antwerp may be to the Germans is as the base for a Zeppelin raid on England, and that the British authorities are anticipating this is evident from the increased stringency of the orders about dimming the lights of the city at night. Even in the outly- ing suburbs now the streets lamps are out and the shop windows curtained. There has been a rush, too, by householders to insure against damage by aircraft and Lloyd's have been writing policies at s2 cents per $l00 of risk covered The risk, of course, is exceedingly small, as it has been proved already in this war that the damage which a Zeppelin bomb dropper can do is very limited in extent. It is also no secret that the preparations about London to give the visiting Zeppelins a hot reception are uncommonly complete.
 The Willy Von Kluck
 A story which has come over from France, which has not been allowed to see the light here, is that when President Poincare went to the front last week, he fully expected to assist at the surrender of Von Klucks army. The allies had been gaining successes for some time and there is no doubt that the German gen. eral was hard pressed indeed. One morn- ling he was reported to have sent par liamentaire to the French commander to ask for terms of surrender. The reply vas that his surrender must be uncondi- tional, and must include men, guns and stores.
 Von Kluck managed to spend day in talking it over and then pretended to ac- cept the terms, but said that he must have authority from Berlin and the allied com manders gave him another day to secure 1t. The willy German general utilized the two days thus gained to rush up rein- forcements by train and motor car and to give his exhausted troops a rest. Then he broke off negotiations and President Poincare went back. The next time Won Kiuck asks for terms he will be given an hour to come in or be annihilated.

The second semester opens with
two new instructors added to the
teaching force of the State College.
Mr.. Ebert Kincaid, former gradu-
ate of the college, has an assistant
instructorship in history, taking the
place made vacant by the leave of
absence granted to DR.. F. A. Colder,
who is pursuing historical investiga-
ton in st. Petersburg, Russia. Mr..
Kincaid did two years of work at
Harvard, taking the Masters degree
earning his doctorate the second. In
the second year he was a student
assistant at Harvard, did research
and collaboration on historical
photography for DR.. Albert Bushnell
Hart, and was elected instructor in
history at Clark University, Wor-
| cester, Mass, a position which he
declined. Prior to his coming to
w. S. C. several years ago, his home
town was Palouse.
Miss Alice r. Walden has begun
her work as instructor in piano at
the college, taking the place of Miss
! Sawyer, resigned.
Miss Walden com es exceptionally
well recommended, both as a soloist
and teacher. She is a graduate of
the University School of Music at
Madison, Wisconsin, and studied
| later with Teichmueller at Leipzig.
Germany.
She has devoted three years to
concert work and has had extensive
| teaching experience, her last position
being with the Kansas State Normal
School at Emporia.
A few press comments follow:
Post, Seattle, Wash.-Miss Alice
R. Walden is pianist who combines
an excellent technique with a fine
musical understanding. Her inter-
probation is marked by purity of tone
and artistic expression, showing per-
sonality and culture.
World, Omaha, Nebr.-Miss Wal
den has astounding power and Yields
| 1t with an ease that is bewildering,
and she also has an exquisite dainti-
ness and delicacy of touch.
State Journal, Madison, Wis
Miss Walden's recital was an artis-
tic triumph. Having ample tech
nical facilities, a refined style in
phrasing and an infallible memory,
she is enviably equipped for the art
of piano playing.
