A RIGHT ABOUT FACE,

It is impossible to overlook the change which has taken place at Washington the past year. It is well remembered how in his last annual re1ort Secretary Garrison of the de- paHtment of war made a number of important recommendations in keep ink with those which had been made bys his predecessors for the strength eIdng of the army. They were sugges- tiahs which called for a considerable outlay of money "nd many changes, but solely for the benefit of this branch ofrthe nations defense. His ideas were thA result of much study and they wete advanced for the purpose of mketing the requirements of the de- pactment if it was going to be put uprn sound and sensible basis.
 E is also recalled at that time how those recommendations were ignored almost completely by President Wilson in his address to congress, although he had had the report before him fol consideration. It was considered al the time that the army was being sighted for the purpose of carrying out the political requirements, for ii the army was given the attention re- quested something else which might have a more important effect upon the people would have to be neglected.
 Now comes the announcement that the secretary's recommendation for the improvement of the army carrying an increase in the appropriation of $75,- OOo.00O and meaning a much better organization with the standing forces increased by. 10000 or more, has the approval of the president. The neces- sity of giving more serious consider ation to this as we'll as the navy il apparently sinking in. The admin istration has apparently been getting some light upon this need as it has upon some of the big mistakes which have been made in cutting the tariff

due advantage of the liberties which are allowed them, but it does call for strict obedience to the terms of the Understanding that they shall remain hero until the end of the war.
 Such acts as the reported attempt to ship on a freighter or disrespect for length of time allowed for a sail may not be grounds for punishment of such offenders. bur 1t Is reason enough for stiffensng the restrictions and by bringing about such orders the few are causing the many to suffer, even though no such acts might be con- templated by the other members of the interred party.
 If any have succeeded in getting away. or manage to in the future. it is the duty of their country should they be able to get back there to or der their return to the United States. This is requirement between nations and was recently carried out in France when a prominent aviator broke his parole, escaped and showed up at his former station ready for orders. France lost no time in sending him back whence he came.

LOOPING THE LOOP.

The disposition to take chances whether any real benefit would result from a successful accomplishment of the act attempted, is confined to no one class, country or locality, not even to the sporting element It is the same with aviation as with other things and while there would appear to be enough danger in the ordinary manipulation of flying machines with out variations, it appears to be impos- sible for certain percenta=e Of the aviators. to resist the temptation to cut didos in the air
 Looping the loop has a fascination for the daring aviator whether he is engaged in f1yins az a martcr of 5us- mess or just for pleasure. It may in- dicate the power of control ever the machine but 1t is an invitation to death by those who persist .n doing it which is invariably accepted scorer or later.
 It was only n few days ago fiat a lieutenant: hl the. government avis . tion squad lost ais-Afe white at.c.-pt- ing the trick. The report now comes from BUenos Aires that d similar fate has befallen an aviator there and if is not forgotten that it was while go- ing through such a maneuver that Lincoln Beachey brought his career tc quick end. These are only a few oi many instances where aviators have sacrificed themselves in response to the enticements of looping the loop, a stunt which they persist in trying unti success or death marks their efforts Yet in view of the lack of real berI- eft from such an attainment, it is deplorable tEi,t there s'iould be such a willingness to throw away human life

A RIRp REEuaE.

Through its laws. the establishment of a state game preserve. propagation and the distribution of various birds Connecticut is doing much for their preservation, but 1t can be appreciated that the plan of F. c. Converse to build a model bird refuge on shis big estate near Stamford is move in be- half of the song birds which calls for much commendatton. According to the announcement it is intended that the refuge will do much for the increasing of bird life in that section of the state and with the inference that this means birds which are desirable and ben eft to the state it promises excellent results.
 Insectivorous birds are important in agricultural pursuits and they greatly overbalance whatever small harm they may do in getting living. MT. Converse is not the only bird lover who recognizes the importance of do- ing something in behalf of the birds, for while he may be planning his ef- forts on a large scale, there are those individuals throughout the state who respond in similar way for the pres ervation and encouragement of bird life in their vicinity, though it may be more or less limited. There are those who regularly provide nesting places and who take delight in throw ing out the crumbs at all seasons of the year for the birds to feed upon Such may be classed as bird lovers but they mons the less represent the great army who find the world bet ter because of the presence of the pretty and entertaining songsters.
 The idea of bird refuge is nothing new. but it is to be hoped that the Stamford experiment will succeed and that the results will be all that is anticipated.

USE OF RIsson~IN coRseTs.

Not for many years has ribbon been employed for forming corsets. and when last 1t was popular it formed the girdles that young girls and women with slight figures adopt ed. It is now used to form whole corsets.
 Some of the new corsets not only lace in the hack. but the. front as well. while others. lacing in the front lace in the back from the waist down to the "end of the corset. There is a tendency to oust the back laced cor set. for more than ever are women convinced that the front lacing is more comfortable and gives better lines than the garment that laces in the back It would seem that the corset that laces In the front with the half back lacing would meet every requirement of the most difl- cult figure. To fit the very full fig- ure with the new short-hipped corset would be disastrous. for the hips are to be confined no matter if the waist Is to be fitted snugly. so the woman of ample proportions should continue to wear the long-hipped garment The bust remains of medium height with the high bust affair in the lead from four to five inches does the the high model measure above the waist line

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
The object of the Serbian Campaign.

The Object of the Serbian Campaign.
 Mir Editor: In your editorial in The Bulletin of Oct. 14th, entitled The Drive Into Serbia" notice that you say in regard to Greece and Rumania. Both of these countries know that If they are going to profit from the war 1t is going to be through the success of the entente allies" This might sound very we'll in the ears of these Balkan countries. but the entente al- lies have got to back up their state ments with something more than promises. and if Rumania and Greece join with the entente allies and re- ce!ve a severe chastisement from the central powers. what will bccoufe Of them? Small wonder that the Balkan states are remaining on the fence as long as possible. so that they might cast their lot with the winning side
 Germany's big drive Into Russia had two reasons: one was the seising of winning of the Balkan states to her side. And in both she has been 60 far successful. for we find Russian Poland now in Teutonic control and Bulgaria now arraigned on the side of the cen- tral powers. suicide not to join the triple alliance. and in fact, 1t would be nothing short of that for if Bulgaria joined the en- tente what spells is she going to get in the partition after the war; Serbia holds one of her most valued provinces -Macedonia, which Russia allowed Serbia to take from Bulgaria after the Balkan league wars with Turkey. Bulgaria asked for 1t. her demands were refused so Bulgaria prepared to take by force. while Serbia was severe ly handicapped. the province won by her arms from Turkish hands.
 The hostiHties began In Bulgaria when the Russian Black sea fleet bom- barded the Bulgarian port of varna- Now we find the Bulgarian army in the field against Serbia We are reminded that Greece has a treaty with Serbia

Small success has attended the allied operations on the GallipoH peninsula for despite their news despatches reiat- ing to brilliant victories and small losses a look at the war map shows them no nearer Constantinople-
 The war will not be decided on the battIenelds of northern Europe. but somewhere in the near east, where neutral buffer states move about like pawns on a chessboard at the will Of their more powerful masters.
 If the Serbian campaign succeeds and Greece remains neutral. tt means the complete annihilation of the Ser b9an army: Prussians lighting for the defense of Constantinopie. and the two kaisers Nith their hands on Suez-the throat of the British empire.

THE WAR PRIMER By National Geographic Society

Varna, the latest port city to feel the burdens of war. Bulsarta's Tsack Sea port is described as follows in a war primer just given out by the Na- tionnl Geographic society:
 ~varna is the first seaport of Bul- garia- It is situated in the north. near the present boundary of Iiuma- mia. on the bay of Varna, a capacious, sheltered inlet of the Black Sea. It is connected by rail with all of the i'm portant regions of the country which 1t has long served as principal outlet harbor than Dedeagatch- the Aegean port of Bulgaria, from whose develop ment SO much future advantage Is ex- pected.

HOW AUSTRALIA FEELS.

As far as known Australia has not been consulted as to the manner in which any of the campaigns of the ai- lies should be conducted. It has never theless furnished funds. vessels and men, the latter in large numbers for the carrying on of the conflict A great number of them have lost their lives in the effort to open the Dar- danelles and that country is naturally interested in the success of that par tfcular undertaking.
 Thus it can be appreciated that the Sydney Telegraph represents the at titude of Australia when it resents the suggestion that the forces of the al- lies be withdrawn from the Gallipoli peninsula and sent into Servia to check the oncoming forces of General Mackensen, who are endeavoring to open up the line which will give re- lief to the Turkish army, and declares that evacuation now would be evil dence of gross incompetence.
 It is impossible to underestimate from the allies standpoint the neces- sity of checking the Teutonic drive which means a future control of tha; region, and as yet there has been nc official endorsement of the idea oi abandoning the Gallipoli campaign, ol any indication that 1t Is likely to fol. low, but Australia cannot become recQnciled to any move which woul6 mean the loss of ground which ha! been gained at such a great cost. | may be that Australia is borrowins trouble and getting nervous oyel something which will not transpire but there is TO use trying to disguis, its feelings. Tn the opinion oT sha country the need for forces in tn, Balkans should be met in another wa, and 1t uncuestionably should if ther, is another way.
