Humorous Side of It.
There is a somewhat humorous fea-

poster of warning and instruction.
One great sheet has on it in black sill
houettes the types of the alien air
ships and those of the home land. The
people are asked to study them and to
learn the differences. A man might
as well try to commit to memory the

other countries, has in numbers. The

masters knows more of camp cam
paigning and battle matters than any
of the commissioned ones under tutel

the insignia of rank for the first time
seemingly are much in earnest. They
have a lot to learn, but they are try

sion is given to It, tl4At whichever side
wins in this fight win know that IL has
been in a fight. The German does not
belittle the fighting qualities of the
Englishman, nor does the Englishman
say one word In depreciation of the
prowess of the German.
London is a queer place in some
ways these days, but no queerer prob
ably than New York or Chicago would
be In circumstances akin to those ex'
isting here, The Englishman is great
for freedom Of speech and this Is why,
probably, that men are allowed to
speak publicly in Hyde Park and Re-
gents park against war; and so
strongly In favor of immediate peace
without much regard 10 terms that II
would seem to the stranger and the
pilgrim that the utterances from the
point of view Of authority would be
almost treason.
Side by side IN the parks with the

pire, the righteousness of the war and
the necessity for filling up the ranks

pleted.
attended morning service on East
er day in st. Paurs cathedral. The
words of the ante-communion service
barely had been intoned before a
voice, high pitched, rose from the cen
ter of the great edifice interrupting the
service and directing the attention Of
the praying congregation to an anti
war meeting which was to be held in
Hyde park that afternoon. The dean
had left the altar to go to the pulpit.
He paid no attention to the voice that
was raised in the midst of the thou
sands of people in the edifice
Two soldiers among the worshipers
sprang at the man who had interrupt
ed the service, but, quick as they
were two vergers, or sections as we
call them in America, were quicker
and had the intruder by the collar and
the slack of his trousers and were
making him walk in the so-called
Spanish fashion toward the nearest
entrance. This incident was consid-
cred hardly strange or interesting
enough for comment by the London
newspapers, for they gave it only one
line mention, and yet such thing in
the United States would probably have
been given a column.
Has Big Home Guard.
England has a big home guard and
London has its share of it. The vol
unteers in its ranks are men still fit
for comparatively active service, but
untitled by the advance of years or
by some slight physical ailment to un-
dertake the hardships incident to cam
paigning at the front.
1t is interesting to see these men at
their work in the field. They go after
business hours to the outlying parks,
where they are instructed and drilled
by veteran regulars who have learned
their lessons in foreign fields. The
boy of seventeen or eighteen, just un-
der the age for active service, drills
side by side with the man of forty
five, at whose time of life the heyday
in the soldier blood is supposed to be

mind the trifling variations in con-
struction and contour of the airship
of the enemy and Of the airship of
the friend. When night has fallen the
task of differentiation would be null
tiplied until learning the Bible back
wards, with Shakespeare, Moliere and
the dictionary of all the languages of
the world thrown in, would be job of
comparatively easy accomplishment.
London is not so full Of marching
troops as once it was. The volunteers
go quickly to the training camps. The
enlistment efforts are as energetic as
they have been at any time in the
past, but, of course, as the material,
or at any rate the willing material, is
used up, the recruits diminish in num-
ber, at least such seems to be the case
in this big city where, in certain parts
at least, one seldom meets an able
bodied man Of soldier age.
English ingenuity has been taxed to
get new and striking word allurements
to draw men to the recruiting offices.
One recruiting poster which was sup
posed to be a paragon Of strength
either has been torn down or has been
covered up in nearly all instances. 1t
was an appeal in these words: Give
your strong right arm to your coun-
try" Above the words was the pic
ture of a strong right arm, but, unhap-
PLY, the arm was detached from the
shoulder, and the significance of the
thing was such that the military au-
thorities had n second thought and
withdrew the amputated arm from the
service for which it was intended.

tame, London, and all England for
that matter, has made its preparation
for defense from invasion, whether
the invader comes through the air or
over the sea- Invasion by actual
armed bodies of men is not looked
upon here as a probability, but l have
heard it spoken of as possible by a
man in public speech within twenty
four hours.
England is still wrathful over the
submarine attacks on it's merchant
marine. The recent sinking of pas
senger ship the Falaba, has maddened
men here. To a considerable extent
at this time of writing the land opera
tions and the possible shadowing of
this town by the wings of a hostile
war bird have been forgotten in the
excitement and resentment because
of the activities in the channel and
the Irish sea of the under-the-water
boats of the Germans.
1t seems to be recognized by English
men that the hunting down of the sub
marines is about the hardest job that
was ever given man to accomplish.
Someone has said that submarine
hunting ought to be no more difficult
than whaling, but the man who has the
task in hand knows that when whale
comes to the surface it has to stay
there a certain length of time in order
to spout, while submarine needs only
to poke it's periscope above the water

look at the surface of the sea and
then to go down and to, stay there
