June has kept pace with her sister months

this month on which rain has not fallen,

Tuesday night and Wednesday we were
blessed with u down-pour. Although this
rain was not actually necessary it will no
doubt be of untold use to the island, helping
to keep open the springs and soaking the

in the future. We once heard IN Old planter

treasures of bare necessities. Lit
tie donkeys brought in large sacks of
-four and wheat
Hay Obtained for the Cattle.
Most of the horses in the city had
already been seized by the govern
ment, but few were found to bring
hay for the COWS, which had to be
put in the basement of our old school
building as our small stable was full.
We have had such a rainy spring that
the ground was too wet to store goods
outside so we packed the easements
of our new school buildings from floor
to ceiling with boxes, bedding and
bags Of wheat and -four, reserving all
rooms above for the people we knew
would need them.
Before we had dressed Monday we
had had applications for rooms from
half a dozen families and by night
we in our houses had a regular hotel
of more than seventy people, while
attic, wood room and halls were piled
with goods of every description.
Our family are all together in the
middle bedroom, which is barricaded
by wall of large oil cans filed with
earth. This shuts out most of the
sunlight, but the windows are down
from the top, and with three open
doors we can get good ventilation.
The sitting room windows are pro-
tected by bags of flour piled up on the
wide stills and triple hanging of
heavy blankets across the bay win
dows to keep out the stray bullets.
Bullet Holes in the Walls.
THE need of such protection is evil
denced by the many broken tiles on
our roof, and forty or more bullet
holes in the walls and the broken
windows through which four balls
have entered our living rooms. Some
times the air huns with the constant
flying of bullets over and through the
premises, and it is miracle that so
few have been hurt. 1t was an ex-
citing moment when an unexpected
cannon ball struck the wall of our
house only ten inches above the head
of the mayors wife, who was outside
the study door, and fell harmless at
her feet. The same morning another
cannon ball fell into the stable yard
few feet from where Neville CDR.

Germans Prepare for Battle
With Great Precision.
Decide on Certain Plan, Provide Nee
essary Soldiers and Equipment
With Margin for MiscaIcuIaton,
but No More, Never Less.

Petrograd.-In an interview with
correspondent a Russian general who
fought in the Galician battles has just
explained the German plan of cam
paign which has resulted so success
fully this summer
He said the Germans plan battles
as builders plan houses. A builder
gets together his blue prints and his
estimates, engages sufficient number
of workmen and certain quantity OF
material and sets to work. He doesn't
try to build a bigger house than he
has materials or labor for. OF course,
accidents or bankruptcy may prevent
the execution of the plan.
Similarly the Germans plan that q
certain thing shall be done; they
bring up the necessary soldiers and
! the necessary guns, shells and bullets,
with margin for miscalculation, but
no more and never less.
They may, through accident or mis-
calculation, fail But they never start
fighting on the principle of doing the
best with the men and shells they
have
To revert to the house parallel:
The house may collapse during con-
struction, owing to mistake. But
the builders will not decide suddenly
that they have not enough material
and dock the house off one story,
nor will they abandon the house
half built, because of lack of work
men or material. They know what
they want to do. The battle planned
and prepared for months in advance
is a precise work.
The whole eastern campaign shows
this. When the Germans won at Tan
nenberg they planned the march on
the Lower Vistula. which ended near
Warsaw. Hardly had they retreated
when they tried a new vast and clear
cut operation from Thorn. When that
stagnated on the Bzura they were
preparing the battle of the Masurjar
lakes. which ~GE & gr-aS victory, and

PLAN LIKE BUILDER

hardly was over when they were send
Dunajec
"The Germans, in short" said the
general, never start fighting on the
principle that would make them say
we have so many men, so many guns
let us have a shot at the foe and do
him as much harm as we can with
these men and guns. They plan the
shot first, see that they have the men
and guns to execute the plan, and do
not touch a plan which is from the
first plainly beyond their strength.
Thus, they never once tried to
crush our army as a whole. That is
beyond them. Even admitting their
technical superiority and good NUM-
ton supply, they would want, in order
to crush US by one operation, at least
as many men as we have. Their way
10 to plan relatively small operations,
which attack only one section of our
front, in the hope Of destroying this
section before we can strengthen it.
"The battle of the Dunajec shows
that the enemy planned to take
these lines and to reach the San. He
prepared everything for this, and
something over, but did not intend to
march straight to Lemberg. When
he reached the San he had to stop
apart from our attempts to counter
attack
Then he brought up, no doubt,
shells, food and men for his next OBJ
Grafton. He treated the next opera
ton as self-contained thing, and
until it succeeded or failed he would
attempt no more. Also he will not
attempt a modified plan. If he feels
too weak he will try something new.
which, according to his judgment. is
within his strength"

POCKETS RETURN TO FAVOR
Women viii Welcome Change in FASH
ion That Has Marked Tendency
to Increase Comfort.

Frivoline, in L'Art ct la Mode,
speaks of the fashion of pockets. 1--WE
are going to have pockets again" she
writes, (which is logical outcome of
the return to short dresses that de-
mand absolute freedom of movement
and liberty, in view of the simple life
we are adopting.
Pockets already existed, numerous
and of all sizes, in our tailored coats,
but this summer it is on our skirts
themselves that, varied, embroidered
or plain, little or big, we must have
them. For the moment they are very
apparent, marked by stitching or a
little braid; generally they are round
ed and placed very near the waist
line.
"Others, more amusing, accompany
ing the robes of blue serge, are placed
a little further back on each hip, like
the flying pockets of the Brittany and
Normandy fisher folk. 1t is a very
good way to bring last years skirts
up to date, if they are too narrow"

GIVES DOUBLE SERVICE
GOWN DESIGNED FOR AFTER
NOON OR EVENING WEAR.
Fine White SILK Net Employed In
Making the Blouse-Tunic and
Sash Give Unusual Features
to Attractive Costume.

An interesting gown is shown in the
accompanying cut, one of that variety
designed for no particular occasion,
but which, possibly, for that very rea-
son, gives more than double the serv-
ice of the other kind. 1t may be worn
in the afternoon or evening, for for
NAL or informal affairs, without ever
booking out of place.
Fine white silk net is used for the
full guimpe blouse, mounted over 1esh-
colored net, while for the skirt lace
bordered net is joined to hem OF
white taffeta by band of lace inser-
ton, upon which a zigzag line of pearl
beads appears to lace the two edges to-
gether. The blouse is shirred around
the top, and the neck finished with an
outstanding frill some four or five
inches high across the back, that grad
ually narrows until it is no more than
a heading in front. The sleeves are
long and of the bishop style, gathered
in at the wrists under double ruffie
of the same material.
Over the blouse is worn a quaint lit
tie jacket vest of prune-colored satin
or taffeta, made with a deep V neck
that has slight flare across the back,
to give a partial effect of a collar-a
much more becoming line than the

that point the lower edge describes a

features in this design. The former

How Armenians Make Ammunition.
THE Armenians have shown won

der, dynamite bombs and servlceable
bullets They make a mortar to throw
bombs, and now are at work on four
cannon, the only weapons the Turks
have which they have not. | visited
their cartridge factory last week. 1t
was most interesting to see the proc
ess from the start, when disks or
copper were cut from plates, to the I'M
ished product of a polished cartridge
with even English lettering on the
end. Everything was handmade, but
between 1000 and 5000 cartridges is
the daily output.
81 never imagined that. could be
so interested in munitions Of war, or
hope so fervently that the revolution
lists should win, but it is now ques-
ton of saving the remnant of the peo-
pie from massacre and starvation, or
defending their lives and homes from
fendish cruelty, and we exnlt over
every advance of the little band and
pray that in some way permanent help
may come to them.
After three weeks of fighting in
the city the Armenians have the adj
vantage. But in the defenseless vii
lagos the story is very different. 1t
is wholesale and systematic massacre
of as many as possible and the taking
of many prisoners and sending them
later to the head of the revolutionsts
to be fed. In this way starvation will
finish the slaughter.
From the first the most of our refu-
gees were villagers, some from many
miles away. When our premises could
hold no more the houses near by and
protected by the positions held by
the revolutionists were filed. 1t is
estimated that at least 10000 fugitives
are being fed in the gardens. 1t is
impossible to do justice to their con-
dition. Fleeing without time to col
lect their food, they come to US rag
ged, barefoot, hungry and sick from
exposure and fear.
Many of the, regular Turkish sol
diers are averse to butchery, so the
vail has promised plumber and glory
to the lawless Kurds, who are nothing
loath to do his will. One morning
40 women and children, dying or
wounded from Turkish bullets, were
brought to our hospital. Little ones
crying pitifully for their mothers, who
were killed while fleeing, and moth
ers mourning for their children whom
they had to leave behind on the plains.
Some of our orphan girls ask us If
God will forgive them for leaving one
child thus when as they were carry
ing one and leading another they
could not manage the third. I could
tell you stories which would simply
break your hearts, but it is needless
to harrow your feelings"
