VICTOR BERGER.

Although he occupies an editorial chair in MiIws ulxee. several thousand miles from war-stricken Europe, Vic tor Berger's opinions on the great com fIict are highly interesting. The American socialist leader, editor, and first socialist congressman, is a native Of Austria, and will be fifty five years old tomorr ow. Far from believing that the socialist movement will be destroyed by the war, MT. Berger be- 1ieyes that it will emerge from the wreckage more powerful than ever. and that among the first results of the renewed activity of the Marxian party will be the overthrow of the Hohen- zo1Iern dynasty and the establishment of a German republic Ultimately, he predicts, all the monarchies of Europe will be destroyed, and there will be a. United States of Europe MT. Berger believes that it would have been futile for the German socialists to oppose the war. for in that event, he thinks the Car would have gone to the assist ance of the Kaiser "A nationalist war, miIitarist war, and a capitalist war the famous American socialist defines the great struggle of the cen- turies. In the chaos Immediately fol- lowing the conclusion of peace Mr. Berger admits, the German Junkers'' may succeed in their plan to strength en the monarchy and abolish parlia- mentary government, but this will not last long. Then will follow the over throw of the Hohenzollern dynasty the abolition of the feudaI aristocracy and the establishments of democratic government in Germany-no neces- sarfly .. socialist republic, but in any event 9 democracy much more liberal than the United States This, Mr. Berger thinks, may bring on another war with Russia. sIn such a war; says MT. Berger, "the German people would naturally have the support of France and England '' As to his na- tive land MT. Berger says: .tAustris, will go to pieces, whether Germany loses or wins. There is no such thing as an Austrian nation, and it has no excuse for existence',

ELLEN TERRY, 67 TODAY, IS KNITTING
 FOR SOLDIERS

An elderly, amiab1e, grandmotherly women, sitting in a rocking chair, knitting, her whole mind concentrated on the problem of 'sone over. two un-. der. one back,''-this is the picture of Ellen Terry, once the most noted of English actresses, as drawn by the New York reporters who recently in tervfewed her. Miss Terry, who is Mrs. James Carew in private life, will pass her sixty-seventh milestone today, having been born Feb. 27s 1848, in Coventry, England. Last year she visited Australia, and on her way back to England has been, spending some time visiting her friends in America She spends most of her time in knit ting for the soldiers, but the work is new to her, and she laughingly ad- nitted that she never knows whether the product of her busy needles will be a bandage for an obese soldier at his widest circumference or a garter for a Scotehnan. Miss Terry is des- cended of old theatrical stock, and both her parents were stage people. Her first husband was G. F. Watts, the celebrated painter, but they soon agreed to disagree and a divorce fol- lowed. Miss Terry then became the bride of Charles Kelly Warde1l, an actor. Her last matrimonial alliance was contracted in Pittsburgh in 1907, when Miss Terry was married to
 
 James Carew, a young American act or who had been a member of her company. As leading woman with Sir Henry Irving she attained internation- al celebrity.

I hate that word tremendously. Then the war started and I came to America. by way of British CoIumbia.' Miss Terry isn't worrying about the outcome of the war, and described the Herman threats against England as "au poppy- cockn Meanwhile she is industrious plying the knitting needles, ana if the war lasts until next Winter she ex- poets to have something completed but she doesn't quite know what it will be.

PUBLIC OPINION

To the Editor of The Farmer.
 Sfr-While passing through our main avenues Is noticed large posters placed on the bill boards, extoIling the merits of good housing and the bene- fcient effect that would result to the lower class, increased efficiency being one of the most valuable from the standpoint of the employer. Sc far fail to see any active steps being ta- ken to bring about this. great i'm provement in the housing conditions of our city. We have no building or the planning and erection of better homes or that would condemn unsan-i itary and slum-creating conditions.
 A great deal of mental energy has been expended by some of our public spirited citizens of late in advocating different lines of civic improvement. Eminent experts have been brought here to instruct the public. do not object to education but think more practice and less theory would bring about more immediate results. The city beautiful is a beautiful ideal, but let US first strive to make it the clean city. We as citizens have right to demand of the officials and employees of the city more efficient service for which they are well paid. The con- duct of our fire department meets with general approval, but T cannot say this of the police department. In the minds of the general public it ex- ists as a benevolent institution for those who render faithful service to the party.
 I think it is time that a little more consideration should be shown to the honest industrious and frugal work fngnnan who is struggling to maintain a little home for his family and who in the end pays for it all by his hard labor J. M SANGER
