bends on the links with its base. Four months of fighting in France has tested the business side of the British war department to the ut most. It Is impossible to bestow too much praise upon the men responsi- ble for it. In less than a month the position at the front was consolidated, and in that month hundreds of staff officers have been working to per feet, enlarge, and weld into one mag nificent business organization the whole transport system. Ships, rail- ways, and motor transports must run like clockwork in order to keep men at the front in fighting trim.
 The constant fighting for four months has been a severe strain upon the thousands of motor vehicles brought over. There was time when the roadsides were strewn with dere- lict motor cars, lorries, vans, pleas ure cars, Red Cross cars ,and even motor bicycles.
 Those days of inevitable v'astage, due to the pressure of ceaseless fight ing and swift movement of troops, are over.
 The mechanical transport depart ment of the Army Service Corps have got to work and the roads, leading 10 the front, are being cleared of dere- lict cars by breakdown equipment, such as one might find at a railway smash.
 A travelling workshop has been set up with everything that can be want ed for repairs or even rebuilding, aud the highest efficiency is being dis played.
 Much more difficult than the repair ing of defective machinery, however, is the saving of horses. The army veterinary department is doing a great and humane work behind the lines. Rest camps for horses have been established, and the poor brutes, broken in wars, are collected and so well looked after that at one hospital camp I was told about 70 per cent. of the horses that were treated recovered.
 On the battlefield horse takes his chance with the man. It is war for both, but for both there awaits skill ed treatment. If, however, horse is wounded beyond recovery, it is mercifully destroyed.

POLAND'S NEEDS.

The first $5,O00 raised by Americans for the relief of the Poles left Bos- ton early last week. AS compared with the sums raised for the relief of the Belgians, but little is going from this country save that contributed Dy Poles resident in the United States. Yet. of the two countries it is doubt full whether Belgium has suffered more than has Poland from the present war.
 While Belgium has been the m tin arena of the war in the west, Poland has been the scene of nearly all of the wars of the eastern line. The fighting which has taken place in Ger many has been nearly all in that DOT tion of Poland which was taken over by Frederick the Great at the time of the partition of Poland. That DOT tion of Austria invaded was Austrian Poland, and the only part of Russia which has had a foe in it's territory is Russian Poland.
 Poles are also serving in all three of the armies of the East. There are over a million of them in the Russian army and proportlonately similar numbers in the armies of Ger many and Austria, fighting against their kindred and in aid of their op- pressors in every case.
 In the three portions of Poland there are 25,OOO,OOO people, as com pared with the 7,O00,000 Belgians, and occupying a vastly larger territory, the larger portion of which has been overrun by hostile armies. The viii lages have been burned, the crops de- stroyed and the country reduced al most to a desert along 300 miles of a battle line.
 Should the final results of the war be favorable to the Allies, the one thing certain is that Germany will be compelled to pay full indemnity to Belgium for all of the material losses of the war. Poland has be- fore it no hope of compensation nc matter who may be successful. The one and only possible advantage which may flow to it is that in the event of the success of the Allies, the Russian promise may be kept for a recreation of the old kingdom of Pc land and the resurrection of the Poles as an independent nation. Perhaps that may be considered compensation for present losses, fin time. But fol the present their sufferings are as great as those of Belgium.-Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

LOSSES IN BATTLE.
Men Called "Missing" Are Not Always
 Dead or Wounded.


 In accounts of battles one almost in- variably reads of the dead, wounded and missing" That the latter are not always among the dead or wounded. nor even among the prisoners taken by the enemy. is shown in this extract paigning With Grant,
 I've learned something at Shiloh about the way in which reports of losses are sometimes exaggerated ill battle. At the close of the first days fight Sherman met a colonel of one of his regiments with only about a hun dred of his soldiers in ranks and said to him. why. where are your menT
 "The colonel cast his eyes sadly along the line. wiped a tear from his cheek and replied in whmperins voice, We went in 800 strong and that's all that's left of us.'
 "'You don't tell me" exclaimed Sher- man. beginning to be deeply affected by the fearful carnage.
 "'Yes,' said the colonel. the rebs appeared to have special spite against us.'
 Sherman passed along some hours afterward when the commissary was issuing rations and found the coloners men returning on the run from under the bank of the river. where they had taken shelter from the firing. and in q few minutes nearly all of the lost 700 had reioined and were boiling coffee and eating hearty meal with an ap- petite that showed they were still very much alive"

 In general the style is good when 1t fits the thought so we'll that the style itself does not attract attention. AS soon as you begin to be consoi ious or the style-unless, of course, you are reading with that end in view-you may be pretty sure it's bad style. Style is something like clothes or fur niture.

They Made Attack.
 PARIS, Jan. 14.-Describing the capture of line of trenches in the north, non-commissioned officer writes home of an unusual piece of strategy.
 "The evening before there had been a heavy fall of snow," he said, "and the bright moonlight showed up ev- cry object with extraordinary clear ness against the white background. The 126th infantry, which had plan- ned a raid on the enemy's trenches, only 20 yards away. found it's project compromised, but corporal was struck by brilliant idea; every man pulled off his outer clothes and pulled his shirt on over jacket and vest: thus they crept through the snow up to the edge of the German trenches with out being seen, and carried the en- tire line."
