that he will not vouch for the ac-
curacy Of it:
ut was when the president was
merely Mr.. Secretary and was visit

fast asleep in a hammock by annoy

film was being shown at a county. fair

In spite of the great sacrifices made
by the women of France, who, since
the war began, have undertaken agri-
cultural work hitherto performed by
men, there was for long period
serious lack of hands This has been
remedied to great extent by the
initiative of NJ Millerand, the min
lister Of war, who put at the disposal
of farmers territorial troops and the
men in the depots who are unfit for
the fighting line. Permission has also
been granted to men in the trenches
to return to the farms for seed time,

NOT EASY TO p6f ON PAPER FIRST TO BUILD TRENCHES
Romans Instituted System of field
Fortificatons Which Are Used by
the Armies Today.

The Romans, who were the first to
| make real science and art of war,
were responsible for one of the prin-
cipal features in western Europe-the
fortified frontier. This does not mean
the ordinary fortified frontier as it
strong fortified camps with unin-
trenched gaps between them. 1t was
in southwestern Germany that the
Romans built, as protection against
the inroads of German barbarians,
what was the prototype OF the line
of trenches which today runs from
Switzerland to the North sea. And
just as the German trenches in
France and Belgium are to all intents
and purposes the frontier of themGer-
man empire, SO the Roman trenches
the lines Germanicus-were part of
the frontier of the Roman empire.
The northern-known in ancient
times as the Pfahlengraben Or pals
ade ditch-ran from the east bank of
the Rhine, near Bonn, across the
Taurus mountains and the Main in
a general southeasterly direction
south to near Stuttgart 1t consisted
of an earthen wall, with a ditch-the
trench being, of course, on the out
side and the wall being the position
of the defenders. The wall was topped
by pa1isade, and at intervals there
were toWers-burgi-occu by
small bodies of troops, who patroled
the intervening sections Of wall. At
longer intervals were stone redoubts
-castella-where larger bodies OF
guaf~ss were stationed. One of the Pc
culfarities Of this frontier-which in
its detail, represented, Of course, an
artificial boundary through what at
the time was very sparsely settled
country-was that stretch of about
fifty miles in length ran in straight
line due north. 1t has been referred
to in English and German writings as
one of the earliest known boundaries
on the American plan. ~.
Near Stuttgart the Pfahlengraben
meets the Teufelsmauer-the DEVILS
wall-which was the name given in
medieval Germany to the other half
of the lines Germanicus-a rampant

Untheatrical Commanders,

Great generals in these crucial hours
are not posing for the movies" They
are not animated portrait busts be-
plastered with medallions and ribbons
to astound lay audiences of civilians at
long range. General Joffre, after %
hours of abstinence from sleep or food,
as he follows over the telephone the
varying fortunes of battle, calmly says
to his staff, TT is over. Let US go take

rapher might fill the mouth of his god

not rhetoric, is the field marshal in

Many Lovers Entirely Unable to Ex-
press the Tendencies OF Love
With Pen.

In the confession Of a certain IA
nous man it is recorded that during
his engagement to the woman whom
he afterward happily married, he
never once ventured to write to her
except on a postcard.
Emma would have heard from me
frequently" he says, according to
writer in the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
"but that had morbid fear that she
would expect what is called love let

account of my affairs by the pen, but

this masculine popularity and make
adequate allowance for it? There is
g convention between betrothed cou-
pies that an ardent correspondence
should contain some assurance of at.
