The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1915-02-20

FOch's confidence in his chiefs tacti-
cal genius is unbounded. Joffre knows
that when it comes to an offensive
movement he has an instrument in
Foch on which he can place entire re-
lance. In private life the two men
are more than comrades in arms. They
are close friends and never more
happy than when they can sit down
over pipe and discuss military remi-
n1scences. for both are veterans in the
strictest sense Of the word. Their ages
differ but by few months: their birth
places are but few miles apart.
Ferdinand Foch was born at Tarbes.
in the southern department of Gers,
on Oct. 2, 1861. His father, Napoleon
Foch, was secretary of the prefecture
at Tarbes. where his three sons, of
whom General Foch was the eldest, at
tended the local college. Each boy
chose his profession-one law. another
the church and young Ferdinand the
army. Ferdinand soon made his mark
and at the age Of twenty-six was nom
mated artillery captain. Rapidly he
rose to the post Of professor of tactics.
with the title of commandant. at the
Ecole de Guerre, or Military school.
where he remained five years. His lee
lures and military works have been
translated into many languages.
Having been created brigadier gen.
eral in 1908. Foch now succeeded to
the dictatorship of the Ecole de Guerre.
one of the most confidential positions
In the war department. He left this
post to take command Of the Thir-
teenth division and afterward Of the
Eighth corps at Bourges and finally
the Twentieth corps at Nancy.
The war did not take Foch by sur
prise. he was among those who felt it
was inevitable in the near future and
had even been looked upon by a Sec
ton Of politicians as an alarmist, much
as Lord Roberts was in England by
the corresponding political party there.
Jof1re. who has the leaders instinct in
choosing his men. Immediately selected
Foch for the responsible position Of
commander Of the Fifth army at La
Fere-C hampenoise. How he acquitted
himself here is matter of history.
Early in October Foch succeeded to
the command Of the three armies of
the north. He is now Joffre's right
hand man and Is looked upon as the
vice generaHssimo'' of the French
army.

at no time In the history Of the army
has the rate for alcoholism been so low.

as well as better hours. out of the
army than in It, be says.
1.-The reorganization of several new
field hospitals and ambulance units
during 1914" General Gorgas con-
tnues. "only in part remedies the glar-
ing defect observed in the shortage of
mobile sanitary units. Our present
personnel permits only half of the
regular army in the field to be served
by the sanitary units prescribed by
field service regulations. In view OF
the great battle losses to be expected
in modern wars it Is serious RESPONSE
bility to rely upon improvised units
that must serve at the front
1.-The great reduction In the amount
of preventable disease foreshadows

Their required phosphate. This phos-
plate unites with the sugar forming
the substance hexose-phosphate, and
this yields to the zymase and co-en-
lyme. and the result is alcohol and
carbonic acid gas. Pasteur proved that
the spelling Of wine, which occurred
In 1864, was due to the microbes. He
further found that by exposing the bot

l22 and 40 degrees F.. these microbes
lost their vitality, and the spelling Of
the wine was prevented. This process
Is called pasteurizing. In 1872 he made
a similar investigation in regard to
beer. with like result. Pasteurizing
OF beer increases its keeping qualities,
and the same process is now applied
to milk. - .'rsf.- n s.s1

PILOTS AERoPLANE TO SAFETY

Paris, April ga story of the

northern army.

had to pass over a region where Rol-

The aeroplane was piloted safely
through a storm of shells while the
sergeant dropped bombs, according to
instructions, and then turned towards
the French lines, rising to q height of
5000 feet to avoid the hal of shrapnel.
Suddenly a German shell smashed
the front wheels and hurled through
the machine, %severing the aviators'
left foot. The aeroplane began to
plunge downward, but DE Al"

CIRCUS IS COMING
(By J. e CO.

(By }. E c.
Whoopla! Hooray! for the great Circus Dav
With its tens and banner, balloons, and say
With its animals, actors and steam caliope;
Popcorn, gum, candy and all sorts of dope
And pink lemonade that tastes like soap:
The huge tents that form a creamy sky.
With ladies as angels floating on high;
Men on trapezes dangling in space
each with fear written plain on his facet
Balancing Riddles with easy grace;
Monkeys dressed up In funny costumes:
Tin bands playing music without any tunes:
Little dogs praying or dancing to rhyme;
Waiting and barking while keeping time.
thinking that they perform just fine.
Clowns with their comical faces and wigs.
Dressed up in outrageous manners and rigs.
Doing stunts backwards and making folks laugh.
Calling a mule a big long-eared cali,
Acting as If they had surely gone daft;
Big Gagged lions that roar all the While:
Clumsy elephants from some foreicn isle:
CRATES and camels and kangaroos, too,
which came to the circus from some eastern zoo;
besloes little monkeys who are cousins to YOU.
Snakes that twist always and never do tire.
With fiat heads, scaly tails and tongues like split wire
Charmers with gold hair standing up straight,
Twisting and frizzling as if leaving her pate,
watched her pet reptiles while their luncheon they ate.
Wild man, from Borneo, who lives on raw meat:
Wee, tiny deers, which the girls think $50 Sweet"
Small shetland ponies that the children can ride.
Large dappled steeds that race round side by side,
White ones which girls in the ring mount with pride.
Bicycle riders and skirt dancers, too;
CracKshooters and knife-throwers from Kalamazoo:
Japanese acrobats, t%ightrope walkers and such;
Unmelodious songsters who give selections in dutch:
Sideshows always fakes-but they do not cost much.
Plump Fatima and the fortune telling Lady;
A pretty little tatooist whom her friends cali "Sadie".
The lion tanner in the cage with panthers and a lion:
The Grassland music sweet, with selections from Zion;
The Punch and Judy show that sets the children CRYING.
The parade that comes always before the big show
For which school and stores close so that all NAV 60
ut counts a great deal before We go to the main
Then our thoughts scare revert to it again
After we've seen within the huge canvas lane)
It's grasping for money which daddy hands out;
Its selling of novelties you can't do without:
Its noise and its din that wont go away;
Its music and laughter, and Dust say
Hoop-la! Hooray! for May 1st, Circus day.

Our Girls

To bring up girl in absolute de-
pendence, goor-for-nothing, selfish in
her aims and exacting in her demands,
is sin against her and against soci-
ety. To begin at her birth and eceno-
mize and retrench in every department
for the accumulation of money in order
that this monstrous perversion of her
life may be accomplished and main
tanned is grotesQue and heathenish.
Girls thus trained will fail to attain a
high order of womanhoed. Their aims
will be petty, their ideals low, and
nothing satisfactory can be expected
of them in wifehood or motherhood.
While we carefully guard whatever is
womanly In our daughters, let them be
trained to more fiber and frmness.
Educate them to self-denial, if pecuni-
airy circumstances demand it, and net
to selfindulgence. Accustom themSto
be Of service in the household. to re-
gard economy as praiseworthy anR
even heroic, and to add to their &C
complishments practi al knowledge
of work, and the possession of some
lucrative vocation or industry by which
they can support themselves. Such
girls. when portionless, will carry to
their husbands dowries in themselves.
