GENTLE MANNERS IN NORWAY
People Are Quiet and. Customs Ar,
 Dignified

From Scribners Magazine.
 The population of Norway is 2.391, TSP, about equal to the population of Chi caso, but if the entire population met in a given area venture to say that their coming. and their going, and their meeting would not make as much noise as one may hear every fine min utes on dozens of street crossings. either in New York or Chicago. In this con nection it Is of interest to note that there are 5000 more women than men in Norway; 1.soo,o0o more men than women in the United States. and 1900, GOO more women than men in the United Kingdom. The total population of the United States Is '92.0o0,000 of the United Kingdom 45,0O0.OO0. Theorists may make such deductions as they will from the proportion of men to women in these countries, but of the comparative peace and quiet there Is no question.
 Norway Is the country of quiet voices. gentle manners and no noise. The steam- CTS dock almost without sound and de- part as silently As Christiansand, where we touched first Scandinavian soil, peo- pie got on and off the steamer, fare wells were waved. the crowd on the dock moved about deliberately: but no voice was raised. there was no shouting, no physical unrest expressed itself in squirm- ing bodies or twisted features; they were almost as calm as the stars above them. All over Sweden and Norway one is at- tracted by the smooth skies, unwrin- kled cheeks and unfurrowed brows of both the men and the women. They have placid faces. as of men and women who have not yet been in contact with our disease of striving to live all of life in a day.

AN APPEAL TO HONOR
 AND A CALL TO DUTY
By WILrEAM IT. AMERINE Captain Signal Corps. \. N. q.

Military experts, students of world affairs and others. men trained through long years of study and observation, have sounded the warning note of the woeful unpreparedness of our country for war-justifiable war. that conflict waged for the love of country. the af- lection held for home and those dear to us. for the preservation and main fenance of democratic principles so close to every American heart, for the protection of our citizens here and abroad in the peaceful pursuit of their happiness and well being; for tho de- fense and honor of our national en- blem, that it may float over the water lanes of travel and commerce unsul- lied and undefi1ed, carrying food tn starving thousands or the word of God to hosts of heathen. and that it may go out on the God-eiven and free for-all waters of the deep truly emblematic of Tn unity there lies strength" and indicative of the home of the free and the land of the brave, so that we may triumph in right and that we may say, And many an eye has danced to sec that banner on the
 
 sky" Not that sort of slaughter mis- named war brought about by kings in support of their fallacious ideas and theories of divine right nor yet that in which men prosecute that kind Of murder too base to be called warfare which means ttS. trampling under foot of the rights dF men ana the ruthless staying wlrh deadly engines of destruc- tion our fellow beings to take from them what they may hold of fertile lands, productive mines and harbors and waters rich in the fish of the sea, or to secure the latter for naval or military bases. In this connection the idea just occurs to me that I had rath- CT be the humblest private in the uni form of the United States than a gold laced field marshal where I had to do the biddings of an cratic ruler, or I had rather be a cabin boy on an American liner than an admiral of the most formidable armada some king

PRESIDENT SPEAKS
At INDIANAPOLIS
BLOOD OF THE MExICANS Is
THEIR OWN TO SPILL, SAYS
WILSON,.
WORK OUT OWN SALVATION
of Democratic Party and Almost
Announces For 1916.

indianapolis, Ind.-President Wilson
il Jackson Day speech here voiced
what his hearers interpreted as hint
that he might be a candidate for
the presidency again in 1916. The
audience of more than 1900 people
rose to the ir feet and cheered until
the President called for quiet.
The President had been discussing
the Mexican question. Referring tc
his belief that he knew the tempera-
ment and principles of the American
people, he added that he would not
be fit to stay where he was if he did
not understand them.
"There may come a TINA he said,
when American people will have to
judge whether I know what | am
talking about or not"
There was a slight pause and then
the crowd began cheering. Realizing
the construction which had been put
on his words, the President held up
his hand for silence and said:
II did not mean to stir up anything
That was merely preparatory to say
ing that for at least two more years
J. l.
can people,
Previously the President had at
tackled the Republican party, defended
the record of his Administration on
the Mexican policy, the tariff and cur
rency and declared that a careful ex-
animation of the returns from the
elections last November showed that
if it had been Presidential year a
Democrat would have had a majority
of about 80 in the electoral college.
Mr.. Wilson gravely spoke warning
to Democrats not TO break up the
solidarity of the party. He declared
those who did would gain an unen-
viable position for themselves.
eff man won't play on a team he
must get off the team" he said and
later spoke of himself as the captain

The President spoke briefly of Mex
ico He said the people there are en-
titled to liberty, mo matter how long
they take in determining it." Speak
ing slowly and carefully, he declared
that $50 far as my influence goes,
while l am President, no body shall
interfere with them

BULGARIA SEEKS TO
REACH AGREEMENT
TURKS MAKE STAND ON FROM
TIER AND FIERcELY ATTACK
THE RUSSIANS.
HAVE SUPERIOR ARTILLERY
British Official Historian Claims Al
lies Are Using All Their Big Guns
and Effectively.

London.-The British reply to the
American note occupies the attention
of the British press and public in the
absence of any important news from
the European battlefelds. The Ger
mans and French official reports of
most recent fighting in the western
field are almost repetition of those
issued on preceding days.
A British eyewitness who has been
the official historian of events at the
front, lay stress on the important
part played by the artillery and high
explosives in modern warfare and
claims superiority for the allies in ar
tillery which is being used to it's full
strength.
From the cost to the River Aise,
where the country is under water and
the rivers are flooded, the big guns
have been engaged continuously, but
the water and mud prevent the infan-
try from coming into action. Along
the Aisne Valley however, and
through the Champagne district as far
as western Argonne the French are
pushing their offensive and organizing
IAlC SAOOA4O Sod1AOO ACoC gains Ao .
been made at heavy cost.
In western Argonne the Germans
also claim to have made gains and to
have repulsed a French attempt to
carry their trenches in the Woevre
and Alsace.
The only news from the East is the
German report that the Russian often
sive toward Mlawa has failed, their
force having been driven back.
In the Caucasus the Turks have
made a stand on the frontier near
Kara-Urgan and are fercely attack
ing the Russian lines.
Seemingly the Russians believe the
report that the Turkish cruiser Goeben
has been damaged, for their Black
Sea fleet which is superior to the
Turkish fleet with the Goeben, has
been attacking Turkish ports and de-
stroying their shipping.
There is no development in the near
east beyond the report from Sofia that
M. Guenadioff, former Bulgarian min
lister of foreign affairs, is leaving for
Rome on semi-official mission, the
object of which is to ascertain the at
titude OF Italy towards the possible
future coordination of Italo-Bulgarian
interests in the war.
