Instructs the Prince of Wales

When the war began, one of the most experienced x-members of the British army former gunner. retired. was per forming the exceedingly unmartial duties connected with the management of a picture palace in small town in Cambridgeshire. This veteran, prior to his retirement, had served in practically all Britain's little wars'' of the past 20 years, having distinguished himself particularly in the Ashanti campaign, during which. by the bye, he had the best of chances of becoming a native god had he so desired.
 As soon as the war started, he re- enlisted and Is now a master gunner at the No. base of the British expedi- tionary force in France, at Rouen, to be exact As such he is in complete charge of the ordnance there and the other day, so he tells in a letter to his wife (who with the assistance of their daughter Is now running the cinema,) has just re- ceived. a young officer was brought to him to whom, he was told. he was to communicate full details regarding the workings of his department" It was not however, until questions and an- swers had been exchanged for 20 min utes or so that 1t dawned upon the master gunner that his visitor was no other than the Prince of Wales.
 "He is without exception the most in- tellfgent young man I have ever met declares the soldier. land he squeezed me absolutely dry insisting upon know ing every last detail that I would be able to tell Through it all too, he was kindly courtesy itself.'
 The chance of this soldier, whose name I have omitted by request, to be a native deity, came to him thus: While fighting against the Ashnntees, he and 10 of his companions became separated from the remainder of their corps and wandered about in the jungle for several days. being. in the time, re- duced to only four. Suddenly this little band found itself surrounded by the hostile natives who were considering polishing them off when our hero, whose pipe had gone out, carelessly struck a match to relight 1t. Instantly the blacks prostrated themselves before this super man who could produce fire from the air and from that moment on they were the humble slaves of the amazed and amused Brfton. They offered him all sorts of gifts, some of which he has to this day. to perform the miracle again. which when the bidding had gone high enough. he oblfgingly did, and tried to persuade him to remais with them as a permanent god, but the Cambridgeshirc man, while flattered, was obliged to de- cline, and, as soon as possible, returned to his regiment which had given him and his companions up as dead.

Who Is Eyewitness ?"

Although much mystery seems to surround the personality of Eye Wit ness" the official English chronicler of the deeds of the British army in France and Belgium, there is really no doubt as to his identity. Various ac- counts have been printed in the press here claiming the honors for any num- Der of amateur and professional writers from Lord Percy to world famous newspaper man and auohtr.
 As a matter of fact, Eye Witness is Col. Ernest Dunlop Swinton, D. s. O., of the royal engineers, assistant secretary and librarian of the imperial committee of defense. His immediate family has contributed several members to the army. two brothers serving in India.
 Swinton made a name for himself in South Africa and gathered the material for several intensely interesting novels Under the pseudonym of "Ole Luk- -oie' he now has an international reputa- ton as writer of military stories. One of his best novels is "The Green Curve" and he Is still busy turning them out despite his activities at the front.
 When the history of this great war comes to be written Colonel Swinton will undoubtedly have large hand in It's shaping.

The Best for the Beautiful
By Hop

From the Philadelphia Ledger
 Of all ealllngs farming is the most beautiful Mining has wonder and might in its potentialltles. but It's raw pictures are of grime and gloom. The Is epic and romantic. but II lacks variety, and 1t mourns even when l. signs. But ngriculture--the third of the great sources of mans sustenance and riches--is the whole range of joy ous nature rioting in every form of beauty. It has not single aspect of ugliness not a suggestion of monotony. It has the colors of the flowers, the music of the birds, the miracles Of tho soil, with beauty everywhere. Why fs 1t, then, that agriculture seems to have corner on most of the bad printing, cheap paper and pale illus tratioHs? Look for the proof in asri- cultural reports and bulletins. No wonder they are thrown away. And that is not quite all Here is the an- nual report of the agricultural depart ment of Pennsylvania being distributed fn 1915. It Is dated f91i but the con tents are almost wholly for 19l3 with many pages running back to 1912
 This moribund document of 6S4 pages is supposed to represent a state whose farmers have attractive homes and whose farm papers are well printed We do not ask that agricultural re. ports shall be filled with chromos, but 1t Ia high time that ugliness and cheap ness should sbe eliminated and that the reports should be either issued promptly or not printed at all. t

London. January 2o.-tSpecial.) )--Ad- New York. has been proposed for the military medal and promotion to rank of lieutenant. He has been on duty day and night for several months at Noisy, one of the most important military supply and ammunition stations in France, assisting Colonel Bellengcr. the military commissioner of the station at Noisy. His functions are numerous, but he accomplishes them all with a smile that won't wear off. Ha has been astonishing several thousand em- ployes, civilians and soldiers by his wonderful stamina and hustling for more than three months.
 Adjutant Netter is well known in the states as former secretary of the Ge- neva White Cross society and assist ant to Dr. Harvey w Wiley in the international pure food agitation. The first thing he did on arriving at Noisy was to build kitchens for the purpose of supplying hot soup and nourlshing food to all troops passing through. More than 100000 soldiers of France have been fed by these kitchens which are working day and night.
 English troops passing through Noisy get special attention from Adiutant Netter. He always has tea, toast and crackers ready for them also English tobacco and cigarettes and even Eng fish and American newspapers. Those who met Adjutant Netter in New York he was a well known figure at the Lafayette and Louis Martins in Forty second street-will not be surprised at the success of his hustling powers but how he has managed to do 20 hours work a day for three months is a mystery to all in Paris. He does not expect to get rest until the war is over. Tn fact he is the nearest thing to perpetual motion ever seen in France.

An Expensive Layer of Clay

From the Philadelphia Ledger
 It seemed safe bet that you could bore a hole anywhere on the beach al Atlantic City 800 feet deep and find nothing but sand. The unexpected thin layer of elay-was struck by the men who were putting down the foundations, for the new Traymore hotel.
 That seeming trifle now bull1s up in the shape of $57,o00. The contractors as l am informed, were to forfeit $500 d day for every day after q certain date that the big hotel should remain unfinished. They were also to get d bonus if it were completed on time.
 The unlooked-for stratum of clay made a difference of 3S days in getting down the piles upon which the huge concrete structure will rest. In the spirit that everybody likes to see n horse win race in the face of handi- eapse. so l trust the builders will yet beat old father time in spite of that cl& and so win the bonus. And it looks now as if they will do it.

Children's Games

From the London Chronicle
 Watching the youngsters in the parks during the holiday time, l have been struck by the change that has taken place in childrens games. 1 hope l am not unduly pessimistic. but 1t does not seem a change for the better. Boys play ericlx- ct. girls seem to have no recognize games at all and the impression give. the onloolser Is one of almlessness ano monotony Why Is 1t that our boys no longer play "overhaeks, "prisoners base" weak horse,' "widdy- widdy way and other like strenuous games which some of us enjoyed immensely no more than decade ago? And why have the girls forgotten tag" and ''ee' and ring a-ring-a- roses?"
