LONDON, July 2-For the first time
in several months the name Of the Ger
man Crown Prince is mentioned in the
official report of the German h%eadquar-

in the Argonne, where the German forces
were led by the Kaiser's eldest son.
II is considered probable here hat the
lack of mention OF the Crow Prince in
the reports for the last few months,
which gave rise TO rumors that he was
either dead or badly wounded, has been
due TO the social stigma said 10 be at

LONDON, June IO.-The appearance of
mattresses In London clubs, mentioned
in a recent letter. is not the only way
In which these institutions have been
affected by the war. The rapid increase
In the prices OF all provisions has
caused wholesale changes in the menus
and the prices charged for meals in
clubs where these things have been
stereotyped for many years.
The London club has never LOOKED to
the sale Of provisions for making a
profit; in fact, the rood Is generally
sold at a loss. But with the increase
In the price OF all provisions. that loss
became so substantial that, clubs could
nc. longer face IT. There were. OF course.
many contributory causes which have
seriously affected the financial position
Of practically all London clubs.
In the irst place n great number
of the younger members are either at
the front or training in camps. Many
members beyond military age are also

pacity or other for the armies. Then

A very serious loss to the revenue Of

of this law in club may perhaps be "A

II is In ordinary licensed houses. but
still the law has to be observed. and
the loss Is perhaps the most serious one
the clubs have to face.
The increase in the price OF provisions

the length and breadth OF the country.

gone up enormously. Fat bullocks are
