GIFT TO
 GREECE PLEASES PARIS

Paris Oct. S22.-The Paris newspa- pers welcome Great Britain's reported offer to cede Cyprus to Greece, as a sfgn that the entente diplomacy has entered the domain of reality. Some of the papers express the opinion that the proposal to make gifts of Epirus Smyrna. and other territory is like sdispos1ng Of the bears skin before the animal is killed. but adds that Cyprus sbeIonkB to England and is a gift worth having, being the finest island in the archipe1ago.
 The Athens correspondent of the Afatin sends the following under date of Wednesday:
 The only way of inducing Greece stc take military action is to send troops to 6aIoniki in sufficient mum hers Ministers Elliot and Dernidon Respectively British and Russian Eiainisters to- Greece9 have called on Premier Zaimts. but no collective ac- tfon by the allied ministers is prob able at present for it would have 1it- tIe chanco of Succ@sss The Runaniaa.

OPPOSES BRITISH
 GIFT, OF ISLE OF CRETE TO GREECE

London. Oct 22.-Great Britain's Reported offer to cede the island of Cyprus to Greece to induce the latter country to join the entente allies is opposed by the Morning Post, which editorially characterizes the offer as bad diplomacy.
 ~ Cyprus is a very nice island with fertile soil, peaceful population, a satisfactory revenue and a hourishing' trade says the Post Now we pro pose to give it away in order to bribe Greece to fulfill her plan in the ob1i- gationss We do not like the tran saction-f It is a bad precedent and might well encourage other countries to ask d prize for their neutrality or support When the British empire is reduced to selling part of itself for military support of Greece. things might be considered as in a bad way
 Our strength in the Balkans seems to have been in nerveless, incompe- tent hands Meanwhile, Serbia strug- gles desperately against great odds and the chances of saving her grow more remote. The desperate position in the Balkans is not the result of Tnere mistakes but of inability to Htand by our conditions or to stand .up to our enemies. There is field here for courageous strategy and able dip1onacy, but if strategy takes the form of drib1ets and diplomacy the shape of gifts, our natural advantages and superior resources will not suf- afice."

Summary
 OF THE WarNews


 Greece is likely to reply to the recent representations of the en- tente allies that she will abide by her policy of armed neutrality. according to information that has reached Rome. Suggestions in the London Press that. the British fleet in the Mediterranean can be used to enforce the representa- tions made are again heard.
 Despite the odds against them Serbians are not discouraged. according to British and French officers who have been at the Serbian front in the north, a Sa- Ioniki despatch states. Serbians, on the same authority, held the Austro-German forces to an ad- vance of but eight miles in nine days in the Ralia sector.
 x Sinking by the Germans of three British steamers, the City of Berlin. the Aux and the Iris, is announced in London. The cir cunstances of the sinking are not explained.

THE YOUNG MEN
 AND THEIR CLOTHES

In looking over a trade report the other day, the statement as noticed that the young. mems clothing houses were selling certain styles. This prompted the question. Is there a, dtstinctiveIy young mans style of dress? Across the line of sex no such line appears. Elderly women fre- quent1y dress as if they were trying to call attention to fresh beauty. And young women who could afford to at tract scrutiny frequently dress very simply.
 In other orders of existence, it is quite common for the male to be decked out in fine pIumage. The male bird is apt to wear brilliant feathers, while the female may be dull grey or brown.
 The human male seems to have some 1ongings for this display, and to part from it, at least during youth. with some regret Up to the past century, mems dress clothes were of the most gorgeous rain nbow hues. In some branches of sport like, hunting and golf, red and green are still more or less popular. ture men favors 1nconspicuousness or clothes. This holds down formal dress to plain and severe black. In business life startling cnec11s and plaids are condemned as loud" and effusive. There are many young men, however, who apparently dislike to be held down by these rulings. Seeming ly they would like to array them selves in purple and fine linen. to be physic cally resplendent to the other sex.
 And so it comes about that meE's styles originate many novelties every year. They are not very pronounced as compared with women's fashions But mems dress is no nearly alike that any variation is noticeable The clothing maker who would sell to youth must stock up these changes Young men dislike to fol- low too much the beaten path. They cherish their own individuality, and seem to prefer something that em- phasizes it, and gives them some mark of distinction from their feI- lows.

China Will Ship
 Beef For Soldiers
 in the Philippines

Peking, Oct. 22-China will prob ably supply the American troops in the Philippines with fresh beef after this year. Major Hugh Gallagher of the United States army and several veterinarian ms recently made visits to different parts of China for the pur- pose of inspecting beef animals and determining whether Chinese beef is suitable for the American army, 1 which is very particular about the i quality of meat supplied to it's men. ! Contractors in China have .signi- fled their willingness to compete for the army contract in the Philippines. As the Australians, who have been supplying fresh. beef to the United States troops, will not be able to com pete next year for the contract be- cause of the embargo Great Britain has placed on the exportation of beef, it is likely China will land the beef contract in Manila
 Chinese beef cattle are not as large as the cattle which have been sup piled from Australia. The Chinese animals dress. only about 45O pounds each, but are said to be fair grade of grass-fed beef Manchuria and Shantung Province are the chief cat tie raising sections of China. Russia is now drawing large quantities of beef for it's army from both of these sections. Beef cattle are shipped on
 
 Province to V1adivostok. Before the war there was small packing con cern in Tsing-tao, but it is not oper- ating now.
 Facilities for slaughtering are also limited in the Manchurian cities near the grazing lands. The American army prefers to have it's beef killed before it reaches the islands, because of the difficulties of shipping live ami na1s into the tropics and the quaran- tine troub1esc liable to arise out of such shipments However, it may be necessary for the Americans to change their specifications in order to obtain the required meat.
 Within recent years there have been several agitations in China for an embargo upon the exportation of beef animals. The complaint has fre- quentIy been made in various prov inces that meat separations raised the price of cattle so high that it was impossible for poor farmers to buy the cattle required by them to blow and cultivate their fields. It has been urged that it is quite necessary to put an embargo upon the exportation of cattle as it was upon the exportatfon of rice, but the Central government has not taken any definite step in the matter.

THREE-FOLD PURPOSE
 TN SERBIAN INVASION

Paris. Oct. 22-The Petit Journal today publishes an interview with Dr. M. R. Vesnitch, Serbian minister to France, in which the minister is quot ed as saying that Emperor William desires to effect three things byI an attack on Serbia These things are:
 First, a, junction with Turkey in or der to recruit soldiers from Asia Minor; next, to impress strongly the imagination of the Mussulman and lastly, to restore the German arny's prestige, lowered by the failure on the eastern and western war fronts.

AUTOMOBILE COMPETITION.

Railroads that do a heavy tourist business have been complaining about their losses through automobile com petition. With a good sized family the saving by using motor can De very considerable. It is one of the economies which people plan in ad- vance to offset the cost of the car But as a matter of fact there may not be much saving here. The average motor party probably spends as much in hotel bills and garage fees as it saves But they think they are saw ing the price of the railroad passa ge which amounts to the same thing The effect is seen in the passenger earn ings of any line doing a tourist busi- ness. In the commuter towns around the large cities. the motor partly takes the place of the train. Tn the pIainer communities, the working people still scramble for the train for the city as they did of yore. But in weaIthier neighborhoods the sociable sight of the whole masculine element rushing sen masse for trains is no more. The swift moving motor gives the business man five niutes longer over his egg and coffee.
 The railroads for the time being will be hadd put to it to make .econo- mics to counterbalance this loss. Per- haps they could cut off some nearly empty sleeping and parlor cars. Many or these are hauIed over long dis tances with three or four people in solitary grandeur. These cars are heavy and it costs good money to haul them.
 The railroads will always continue to be the great democratic highway for the mass of the people. Long tours in motor car have zest for a time. But in time it ceases to be a, novelty. The train covers the dis tance in the least time and the great est certainty. It costs more and more money to build a railroad, so that an existing right of way gets more and more valuable. The country is grow ing and there will be many freight shipments additional for every motor party that is lost.
