REASON FOR His DRAGGING
British Soldier .elt Ne Had to Lie
About His WONDERFUL Cecds
In The Field.

An officer was surprised one day
when searching the letters of his de
tachment to read in on of them
passage that was something like this:
I'VE have just got out of shell-fire
for the first timo for two months. 1t
has been o hard time. The Germans
were determined to take our field bak-
cry, but, by geel we would not let
them. We killed them in thousands" ."
This was {. letter from ono of the
bakers to his wife. None of the de-
tachment had been a mile from the
base, and they ha6 never seen a Ger
man. except as a prisoner. My friend
knew the writer well. and could not
help (although it WIS none of his bust
ness) asking him why he told such
terrible lies to his poor wife. The SOL
der said:
It's quite true what you say, but
it's like this, sir. When my wife and
the wives of the other men in the
place where l live are talking it all
over in the morning / couldn't think

VAGUE AS 70 CAUSES OF WAR
Anecdotes Would Seem TO Reveal
Confusion OF the Average
irish Mind.

In many districts of Ireland there
are practically no books and almost
nobody reads newspapers For months
there were people in Ireland who
thought England was fighting on the
same side as Germany.
Here IS an illustration of popular
ignorance of which I have personal
knowledge.
group of villagers we're in black
smith shop, discussing the news. FL
nally one asked And how did this
bloody war begin?'
The blacksmith was the scholar of
the gathering. You see.' said he. ''it
was like this. Tho king Of the Servi-
tudcs took woman of the Morgaus
to wife. and so tho Servitudos killed
them both and that is the way the
thing began"
Which. after all. is much after the
manner of Herodotus.
Still conining myself TO incidents
that / know TO be true / will add
another anecdote to Illustrate the way
the Irish mind takes hold of an inter
national situation. A man was defend
ing himself for having fought with
the British troops against the Beers.
He explained that he started to Join
the Beers. but that he could not get
through the lines, GO he Joined the
British.

PHYSICALLY FIT.

Many comemnts by the nurses at the front and by correspondents Of the English press emphasize the ex- cellent physical condition of the French soldiers. This condition is not a matter of accident and could not have been achieved in few weeks of special training. On the occasion of the National Congress of Physical Educa tion held at Paris in the spring of 1913 reports were made and demonstrations given showing a revival of interest in physical welfare extending over the entire nation. Gymnastic colleges and societies have multiplied during the past fifteen years. The Club Athletique de Ia Societe Generale, established in 1904, gained in less than a decade near ly 1000 members. Lieut.. Herbert re- gently established system of exer- cises in the navy that has command ed the admiration of sportsmen and physicians alike At Jeinville the old-fashioned method of drill was changed in 1910 to the most approved modern instruction in gymnastics.for the army. The. young men of Paris have practiced for number of years the "boxe anglaise," and have con. fessed to hiding, each: in his inner most heart, the desire for athletic .prowess." Writing in Le Temps a year ago, the Marquis de, Polignac frankly expressed his hope that his countrymen would persist in their new cult of physical energy until they could compete, with the English.
 While there has been no such de- liberate preparation for war as in Germany, the sentiment in favor of physical training in France undoubt- edly has been strengthened by the thought that in a clash of armies the foe would be physically redoubtable Many have echoed the words of Gen. Chanzy at Reims in 1882: Give us men and we will make soldiers of them" France for the past quarter of a century has been making men, EX

high rates of marine insurance. But that a few rowing submarines can destroy the sea power of a country that itself has twice as many subma- rines as the German navy possesses. it is preposterous to imagine. Not even the German chancellor could be- lieve it.. If the German cruisers and battleships dare not come out to con- test the command of the sea, it is ridiculous to suppose that England can be blockaded and starved out in the way threatened
 The serious aspect is not military, but legal and humane. The order avows the determination to sink lev cry enemy merchant ship" without regard to the safety of "the crew and passengers" No one knows better than the German government that this would be clear violation of the rules of war at sea. These have been, till now scrupulously observed by German cruisers, and even sub- marines. The captains of both the Emden and the Karlsruhe were ex- ceptionally careful in their treatment of the crews and passengers of the merchant vessels which they captur- ed. In few instances, where there was no way of providing for the non- combatants, the German officers let the ships go. But now it is propos- ed to launch torpedo at merch- ant vessel as ruthlessly as if she were a warship. And it is even in- timated that the same thing will be done to neutral ships on their way to English ports. The Berlin Post goes beyond the extact terms of the government order, and declares that, after the date notified, February Is, linen and freight not only on Brit ish ships, but under neutral flag, are doomed to sink" If this is not braggadocio, it is brutality It is also arrant stupidity, for, if it were not held to be sheer piracy, it would be an act of war against neutrals- or, at least, an act which, if not in- stantly apologized foE with an indem- nifty offered, would lead straight to war. And even in their maddest mo- ments of exaltation and restlessness German rulers can hardly wish their country to .be regarded las hostis generis humani.-Ex.

THE WHITE FEATHER.

The practice in London of present ing a white feather to men of mili- tary age. who are not in uniform has reached an absurd extreme. Be- cause a man is not in uniform does not necessarily mean that it is be- cause he lacks courage There may be intimate reasons for remaining at home, reasons of which the public has no idea.
 The captain of an English warshir who was at home on leave of ab sence, his ship having been destroy ed, was publicly disgraced and brand ed by the mob as a coward having to wear the white feather. The ones who engineered the hazing, for il amounts to the same thing, did not know that the victim was a naval officer of distinguished valor.
 The government has now stepped in and those who are detained al home on business connected with the government are furnished with g badge bearing the significant words "On war service "-Memphis Com mercial-Appeal.
