teers. 1t is.only a few months less than
that since she was wounded in the field
and later won national fame by her gal

THE MEN IN THE TRENCHES

bothering themselves about Russia,
They wanted none of the territory of
these countries and, above all, they had
no desire to kill their inhabitants. The
Russian had no designs on Germany or
Austria. The average citizen of each of
the belligerent nations only wanted to be
let alone to pursue his vocation and re.
main with his loved ones.
The princes, mobiles and politicians how
ever, having nothing to do in the way of
lettering conditions in the world, living
to the lives and happiness of the toilng
masses of their respective countries, fear
full lest prolonged peace might jeopardize
their prerogatives and privileges, swayed
by ambitions, jealousies and intrigue,
knowing that they could stir the patriot
ism of the masses and embroil them,
touched the spark that set the world afire.
From sense of duty and because they
have no other alternative the men in the
trenches fight like true soldiers ali.
They have illustrated time and again
the splendid virtues of the race, as they
have gone to death by the hundreds of
thousands. They are the men who in the
battles lull can meet each other as
brothers. not as foes, but as common vic
tins of outworn autocracy, sacrificed to
ignoble ambition and to the everlasting
shame of the princes who have deluged
the earth with blood.

Diversification and Farm Settlers

Few immigrants have settled in the
south in recent years but many north
ern families have sought homes in this
section. The Illinois Central railroad
alone has done good work in inducing
homeseekers to buy farms in Alabama
and Mississippi.
The cheapness of lands in this state,
compared with the price of lands in
the north, together with the fertility
of the soil and our favorable climatic
conditions should make it easy to bring
farm settlers here.
The work of filling up the waste
places will be greatly advanced when
crop diversification is fully developed.
Several largetracts of land in Alabama
have been purchased recently and d.
vided into 40-acre farms. A thrifty
northern farmer who understands in
tensive agriculture can make 40-acre
tract well improved pay for itself in
three or four years, and in 10 years he
will be known as rich man in his
community.
Truck farming and poultry farming
in Alabama are still in their infancy.
The few who have given much at
tention to poultry have found it ex-
ceptionally profitable. The crop di-
versification campaign now in prog
ress will be pushed, and the result will
be a great increase of wealth in Ala
bama. And in connection with that cam
paign the states immigration depart
ment and the states agricultural de-
partment should cooperate with the
railroads and with the farm commit
tee of the Birmingham Chamber of
Commerce in an effort to make Ala
bama one of the greatest agricultural
states in the union.

English women do not intend to go to
the front, but it is planned to SO organ
ize them that they may take the place
and do the work of men who can then be
sent to the front. At meeting held at
the Mansion house in London, the Wom-
ems Volunteer reserve was orga nized, the
object of which is. according to the lord
mayor, to provide trained and highly
efficient body of women whose services
can be offered to the state IL required.
Among the things which women may be
trained to do as effectively as men, are
signaling, dispatch riding. telegraphing,
motoring, and camp cooking, thus releas-
ing an equal number of men for service
on the firing line. In case of q German
invasion of England. which is not beyond
the range of possibility it is probable
that these women will be armed for the
defence of their homes. No experience
could be harder for women than to sit at
home with folded hands while their loved
ones have gone to the front to suffer or
to die. Woman has always done her part
in time of war. in nursing the wounded
and carrying on the work at home, but
the organization of the women of England
into volunteer reserve force to serve in
case their country Is invaded brings
home the awful realities of war A. nothing
else has done.

Effect of Sentiment on Bushes.

The word psychology has been
overworked in these recent years
Psychology as science will always be
studied in the class room, but its
common use as applied to every phase
of life and to every crisis in the
worlds affairs often makes one smile
No one, however, will gainsay the
fact that sentiment or psychology OF
attitude of mind plays a helpful part
in business recovery after a period OF
depression. But for the optimistic
sentiment manifested by many in.
dustrial and financial leaders, the bust.
ness depression of last fall would have
been more serious than it was. The
hopeful views expressed from time to
time and the optimistic forecasts of in
dustrial revival, have had practical re-
suits.
Business is improving steadily, and
the more sentiment there is on the
side of continued recovery the more
rapid will be the approach of new
era of prosperity.
Two months ago it was quite usual
to hear prophets Of prosperity say that
in the near future all the wheels of in.
dustry in important manufacturing
centers would be humming. Since the
holidays concrete facts have been in
evidence from day to day showing
that the business situation has actual.
ly improved
Those who have been predicting
that prosperity would be in full swing
in all parts of the country before the
end of the first half of the year will
see their prediction fulfilled.

From the Houston Post.
~ EPoRTs from Berlin tell us that
tx the German authorities have is
= = sued a general order prohibiting
in future troops in the field from frater-
nizing with forces of the enemy, as they
did at several points of the war on
Christmas. 1t is said that to such an ex-
tent was this fraternizing carried out
that at one place where the Germans and
British played football Christmas day,
they agreed to suspend hostilities for two
days more.
There is nothing new about troops of
opposing armies fraternizing. 1t happens
in nearly every war, and was common,
indeed, during the great war between the
sections in the United States.
The case reported from Berlin is but
one of many that have occurred during
the present war From the very begin
ming, the men in the trenches have when
opportunities favored suspended HOSTILE
ties long enough to mingle with each
other.
1t proves what is well known.
The anger and hatred of the present war
is confined for the most part to the rul-
ing classes and the noncombatants.
The men in the field do not hate each
other, and they have never had cause to
hate each other

August l, the German people were not

1t is reported that immense herds of
caribou, such as once roamed the forests
of Maine, may again be found in that
state after a few years. Hunting guides
and game wardens in the northern part
of Maine and along the Canadian border
state that evidences of caribou in increas-
ing numbers have been found. Such
stories have been current for the past
two years Herbert Spencer a warden
who is located near the ST. John waters
says he observed a herd of about 80
caribou in a certain section on the Maine
side OF the st. Lawrence river. They
belonged to the woodland variety which
DO not wander as much as the Newfound-
land caribou. Mr. Spencer thinks this
herd has increased from a smaller herd
OF six or seven animals which he saw six
years ago. Game officials are in doubt
as to whether the herd has survived from
the caribou that were at one time plenti-
ful in Maine, or whether they have en-
croached on the Maine border from New
Brunswick

best work will doubt but that he had
gifts to start with which he has since
developed.
Mr.. Cobb does not think college
education necessary to the making of
a good newspaper writer, although he
regrets missing the training and the
experiences it would have given him at
an impressionistic age. Neither does
he scorn the school of journalism, as
a great many old fashioned newspaper
men do. He thinks that a young man
prepared for the newspaper game"
in a school of journalism would stand
a better chance eventually of becom-
ing a finished newspaper man than
one of equal ability who had not
taken such course"
Zone of the best features of a
course in journalism" declares Mr..
Cobb, "is that it is good as an antidote
for too much study of English. The
tendency of many courses in literature
is to give the idea that the English
language is an end and not means"
Furthermore, he thinks that good re-
porters are scarce and the good re-
porter's best asset is good memory.
These facts have been brought out
before but are interesting as coming
from man who has just won fresh
laurels as a war correspondent after
having established himself as hu-
morist and writer of some of the best
short stories produced in this country
in decade.

IT ITALY SHOULD FIGHT

Frank Simonds in the New Republic.
If Italy should enter the war there
would be all instant moral effect which
might bring peace. If this failed, Ger
many would be forced to surrender her
offensive on both fronts and probably to
evacuate not alone Poland and Belgium,
but East Prussia and her trans-Rhenane
territories. Prolongation of the war would
probably destroy the Austrian empire,
but Germany might endure all and con-
tinue to the end, confident that the dis
solution of Austria must be the first step
In still more complete unification of

For Italy this last consideration might
well make her continued neutrality, for
If Austria vanished, she would have to
