Society Submerged by the War.
Still a scrap OF paper7

From The Manchester Guardian.
Society in the old sense Of the word ha.
ceased to eXist-it has simply disappeared
The units which composed society, at any
rate as TO the women, no doubt still exist in
London, but as a corporate whole, with meet
ing places and common conventions, it has
melted into the ordinary world. 1t survived
The outbreak of the war for time and there
were attempts at keeping it together by &C.
casional dinners and small informal dances,
but even this is now all changed. There are
very few luncheons, no dinners and private
dances are not even mentioned" a fashion
able leader declared day or two ago. "As
for season-well, there won't be = trace Of
one" few women gather together occs-
sionslly for dinner and game Of bridge, but
that Is about all. One OF the most marked OF
The signs Of the times is the decline Of even
Ing dress. Nearly all young men wear khaki,
and women are more and more dispensing
with low-cut evening attire. II is felt by
some TO be out Of place in these stern times,
and others are too occupied with work that
keeps them out and about till all hours 20
blouse and skirt. London indeed is changed.

Humors of the War.

The English literature of the war Is
not without It's own humor. There is,
for instance, the sudden discovery by one
English weekly that Joffre resembles
Kitchener in all his best qualities. What
IS more, Frenchmen are exactly like Eng.
lishmen, "if the history Of the two peoples
IS carefully considered" Who ever said
that one Englishman could whip six
Frenchmen7 Then there are the Rus
SLAMS. How they have been misjudged in
the past by English writers, who did not
understand their qualities, who foolishly
suspected them of designs upon India,
now, of course, definitely Abandoned A
whole Anglo-Russian literature of huge
dimensions, beginning with "The Rus
slams at the Gate Of Herat" and including
such hamboyant fiction as "Called Back"
and such melodramas as Siberia" has
been strapped.
Then there are the Belgians. Congo
atrocities? Let US forget them, especially
England's insistence upon the charges.
They never were quite proved, anyhow.
Belgian cowardice at Waterloo Nom
sensel The raw Belgian levies did as
we'll as could be expected against Ma
poleon's veterans, and far better. AS for
the Dutch, the British press has as yet
an open mind concerning them, but their
obstinate neutrality begins to look bad
as evidence OF their national character.
Some mistakes were made in the days
of these new English enthusiasms. There
were unfortunate comparisons of the
Kaiser with Napoleon |, for instance.
Happily, Attila was ready at hand for a
substitute. He had no friends or ad-
mirers among the Allies. Then there was
that slip about the Teutonic origins Of
Russian sutocracy. It was hastily COW
cred up. As to the virtues of the Ital-
ians, Rumanians, Bulgarians and Greeks.
as of those Of the Dutch, the English
pamphleteers are as yet undecided. All
depends upon their course in the struggle.
And here at home? Who Of US now

WAR NO PARLOR GAME
No Ethics in 1t and No Answer Save
Corpses, Blood and Tears.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Being an editor, sometimes try, by
way OF getting the popular viewpoint, TO I'M
agine myself as big fool as most Of the
individuals making up the population Of the
world in order that I may better serve them
with the mental buttermilk that they need.
Unfortunately am now and then unsuccess-
full. And this war is putting my machinery
for understanding the public mind all out Of
gear.
1t appears that the German armies, in or
der to dispose of their enemies, sent noxious
gases ahead of them and as a result made
considerable gains. According to newspaper
reports, the Germans admit" that they did
this, but insist that the Allies taught them
how. The assumption is that, in the opinion
of some one, there Is discredit attached to
fighting by means OF gas.
The purpose Of war Is to win. II gas Is
more deadly than bullets-ce certainly it is far
more humane-why quarrel over who used it
first? II the Allies discovered the principle
and failed TO follow it up 1t Is very discredit-
able to them. If a man comes into my house
to murder me I shall not bubble over
whether he use steel. lead or poison-in fact,
my aesthetic sensibilities rather approve Of
the latter.
If were Germany, and fighting for my ex-
istence, no matter how came to be fighting,
should use every means at my disposal to
win. The German would be q bigger fool
than his worst enemy ever accused him of
being if he didn't. War isn't a parlor game,
and it cannot be much worse at It's worst
than it is at It's best There Is about 80 per
cent of hypocrisy in the criticism Of Germany
these days.
Nevertheless, am hoping, for the greater
good of the world, that the Allies will soon
begin to display a little OF the real fighting
quality of the Germans and crush Prussian
mlitarism. Unfortunately, a good many of
them seem TO feel that the war is to be set
tied on the basis of argument upon the ethics
of shelling catheGrals. The answer is really
to be sought In corpses, in making more
widows and orphans in Germany, in watering
the soil of the Fatherland with tears as well
as deluging it with blood. If we are going
to war let US be warriors, not milk-fed babes,

An Effective Weapon.

To the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir: It seems strange that German inge-
nuity should have overlooked any method Of
warfare that would have decsvely defeated
and utterly COMPOUNDED the allied armies. No
doubt 1t would be esteemed both a duty and
pleasure to Ambassador Bernstorff. DR.
Dernburg and Herman Ridder to put the
Kaiser in possession Of a means Of attack
that would drive the Allies frantically from
their trenches at q high and reckless rate Of
speed, never TO return to the conflict
If so, they might hasten TO call the Kai..r.

sirable result could be speedily accompli,bed

Educational Department.

Sir: A little girl contracted whoopns
cough some time before the Christmas hol!.
days. She apparently has been entirely re-
covered for many weeks. On Sunday she was
examined by her uncle, a well known sp..
cialist, who pronounced her absolutely cured
and said it would be satisfactory for her to
return to school.
She returned TO school yesterday morning,
but her teacher, in q spirit Of caution, sent
her downstairs to the principals Office, ae-
companied By little boy who was broken out
in an advanced stage Of chickenpox The
little girl waited in the superintendent otlcs
nearly an hour IN company with five or IN
other Suspects" and was then sent homo be-
cause she had been exposed to the contatsn
Of chickenpox Yet they Danish q little girl
for calling ooh You" at teacher. Many Of
us who are parents would not stop where the
little girl did, but would like TO add few
explosives. Fl. G. Il.

Shooting the Chutes."

Though unemployment has lessened
with the improvement of business and the
possibility Of resuming outdoor labor, 1t
has not become extinct by any means.
Though the number Of persons needing aid
is smaller than il was in December and jan
uary and February, the need for aid is not
less acute It is to be hoped, therefore,
that the "Shoot the Chutes" scheme Of col
lecting money to help those out Of work
devised by Miss Anne Morgan and her
associates will amass q goodly sum to
maintain these unfortunates whose eff
forts-through no fault of theirs-can't
provide food and clothes and shelter for
themselves.
While there is suffering in this city be-
cause men and women striving to get jobs
cant find work-and there is such suffer-
ing-it is no time to discuss, as some
have been doing, the desirability or lack
of desirablity Of charity. Doubtless most
of those who have had to take money or
its equivalent from the public have not
relished it. The cold fact remains that
human beings, here in a topsy-turvy
world, can't starve and aren't to be per-
mitted TO starve.
The city and state authorities and
philanthropic organizations are doing all
they can to help. The rest Of the burden
must come on those members Of the pub
lie fortunate enough to have work and
good incomes. So let the nickels and
dimes, the quarters and dollars roll down
the chutes, with the hope that in some
distant day nobody need experience the
pleasure Of giving to one less fortunate
because nobody will be unfortunate
enough to need charity"

Rosamund.


Not Of the rose that through the curtained
dawn,
In magic splendor burns its clouded way,
To fade in beauty ere the sun has gone
Above the hills that guard the gates Of
day,
Not of the rose that crimsons Ger the
skies,
When the hot sun dips in the Kissing sea,
Flaunts its proud pageantry and lingering
dies,
Not of the poets flower, that lavshly
Filings its brief incense to the summer air,
Not of all these the dreams that mock re-
pose.
Hope, the artifcer, from wild despair,
Forged me vision of deathless rose,
Born when the planets into space were
hurled,
Rose of the dawn and dark. Rose of the
World.
