CONDITIONS CHANGED
AT TROUVILLE, FRANCE

II TROUVILLE, France, Sept. L.
The horse show, horse races and
other social attractions which have
brought the elite of society here at
this season every year are lackinS,
but the famous resort is still lively
with a throng OF the broad walk
that is made up largely of conval-
escent soldiers and their nurses.
Some of the biggest hotels are hos
pitfalls, some of the elegant villas
also, but there are enough children
to prevent the beach from being
submerged in gloom.
The sands of Trouville are also
the scene of interesting military OF
e~rations. All along the beach from
Deauville to Trouville there is an
almost uninterrupted series OF
trenches built by the contingents OF
1880 to 1895, now in their fifth to
tenth rear, who are working undor
the direction of convalescent SOL
diers. Bathers are obliged to give
the counter sign in order to pass,
and then they are distinctly inform
ed, it is at their W risk and per-
il for there are labyrinths every
where in imitation of those at the
front. If a high west wind fills the
trenches with sea water, recalling
the winter campaign along the User,
it heightens the joy of the five TO
ten year old "poilus" who jump in
to them in their bathing suits and
make more noise than ever

Poland was three times partitioned.
The final apportionment was made al
the Congress of Vienna in 1915, which
left to Russia 22O,5OO, Prussia, $4,000
and Austria, $4,000 square miles. A.
ter this distribution, the conquerurs
sought to blet out all memories of the
Kingdom, Poland, and Mr.. Showalter
enumerates among the repress1ve
measures employed to this end those
forbidding the use of the Polish Ian
guage, the use Of the national dress
even at carnivals-the singing OF
national songs and the displaying OF
national coats-of-arms.
The Poles last their place among
the family of nations because they
were the victims Of an unrestrained
individualism. Yet, where the Poles
are willing to surrender some part OF
their individualism in the service OF
an idea-as in the case Of the United
States,-they make the best of citi

POLAND AN EMPIRE
OF THE YESTERDAYS
MUCH PARTirIoNED COUNTRY is
FIGHTING UNDER THREE
DIFFERENT FLAGS.

washington. u. C., FEB. 17.-Amerl- |
can sympathy can be given without
reserve to "partitioned Poland" the |
magnificent, much-promising Empire
of yesterday. the keen suffering bat
tlefield of today, whose farms and in
dustry, villages and cities are being
made war-offerings and whose people
are fighting one another under three
different flags; for Poland is the least
concerned sacrifice in the European
struggle. Polish lands comprise al
most the entire eastern war-theater.
This people, their chequered, turbu
lent history, their proud boasts and
dearest hopes, and their peculiar char
acteristics are carefully explained to
Americans in a historico-geographical
study made for the National Geograph
ic Society by William Joseph Showal-
ter.
Mr.. Showalter says of the brilliant
MiddleEuropean kingdom of yester-
day:
I'm size she outranked nearly every
nation of the continent Even now
Russia alone of the European nations
is larger than Poland was at her
greatest. In population she stood at
the forefront of Europe; only Russia
! and Germany today have greater pop
ulations than are to be found in the
lands that once we're Poland; for un-
partitioned Poland had an area of
| 2S2,00O square miles, and the lands
| that once lay within her boundaries
now support a population of so mil
lion. In area she was as large as the
German Empire, Switzerland, Belgium,
Holland and Denmark together; and
! within what were her borders there
dwells present population larger
than those OF France, Belgium and
Holland combined"
Though III years have gone by since
the final partition of Poland among
Russia, Austria and Germany, and
though the conquerors have made the
most vigorous efforts to assimilate the
Polish people, the Pole today, if any
way changed, is more intensely nation
al, Mr.. Showalter points out more pas
sionately devoted to an ideal Of re
established Poland than ever before
The Pole has fervent love for al
things Polish, this writer continues
He will tell you that their cookint
, is better than that of Paris; that thei1
} scenery is more beautiful than tina
