WORSE OFF THAN COLLEAGUE
British Indian Army Officer Not Well
Treated in Matter Of Pay and
Allowances.

London-"When all the deductions
ordered have been made from the I'M
fortunate Indian army officers pay"
says London Truth, "it will be found
that in many cases he is positively
worse off than his British army col
league, inasmuch as he is not entitled
to draw field allowances, and this in
face of the fact that the majority Of
Indian officers are married, and have
had to break up their homes in India
and send their wives and children to
England at great expense. When the
war broke out, the principle laid down
by government was that no officer or
soldier ought to be in worse posi-
ton during the war than he was be-
fore it, but the government of India
has ignored this principle, and treated
it's officers in way which any civil
employer of labor in England would
be ashamed Of"

Hours Off Duty Watching Them

VIENNA German officer stationed
at Lille, France, writes an interesting
letter to the Prague Daily News, in
which he speaks of conditions in that
city, and becomes quite enthusiastic
over the pretty girls and their ele-
gance of attire.
when l first entered Lille" he
says, Il was amazed at the devasta-
ton wrought by cur shells Street
after street of ruined houses met my
gaze, but, nevertheless, the inhabitants
are happy and gay.
81 marvel at the elegance of the
women of Lille. In the Rue Rationale
there is every afternoon a regular
parade of women the like of which
have never seen. Low shoes appear
to be the fashion-shoes of gold
en- bronze, with marvellous stockings.
For hours l sit in the cafe of the
Restaurant de Strassbourg and watch
these elegant women. They are gay
and happy, despite the fact that the
roar of cannon is constantly heard,
and their demeanor is such as if there
was no such thing as dreadful and
horrible war right in their midst"
