FIRST VICTIM OF THE WAR

A school teacher. not quite 81 years of age
was the first French soldier killed in the great
war, He Andre Peugeot, corporal. on
the afternoon of Saturday, August !, 1914, mo-
bilizatiOn of the French army was decreed. To
avoid giving Germany preteXt for declaring war
all troops along the frontier were ordered to re-
tire to distance of 10 kiOmeters from the line.
Next day Peugeot, with four men, at the
village of Joncherez. At 10 o'clock in the morn
ing he heard a girls voice cry out THE Prus-
slams! !" The corporal saw four German cavalry
men riding through a lane between two wheat
fields AS Corporal Peugeot stepped forward
TO halt the trespassers the German officer in
command of the cavalrymen fired three shots
with his revolver. Mortally wounded, PeugeOt
raised his rifle and fired at the officer, who fell
dying from his horse, A moment later Peugeot
plunged forward dead. He mentioned in
a dispatch as having stopped and dispersed the
first German patrol that had violated French

NO TEMPoRIZING

PRESIDENT WILSON'S reported response
i TO Carranza's illtimed request for with.
drawal from Mexico expresses, in a diplomatic
way, what others have said more simply. I'VE
win not get out" is the meaning, unless you
get Villa without u.s."
The troops are to stay in Mexico and to go
some way farther south. Why limit should
be fixed, as a concession TO Carranza. Is not
very clear. There is limit beyond which 1t
would be uhwlse for purely selfish reasons for
our troops TO go, and that limit may soon be
reached Obviously the President and his
Cabinet were willing TO have 1t appear that
we stood ready to agree with the First Chief.
II is equally plain that they do not propose
TO 90 to war unless they are forced to by
Carranza-
The important thing is that our troops viii
be removed from Mexico as soon as It appears
that the Carranza Government can deal better
with villa alone. The Carranza Government
has not shown itself particularly capable in
the past weeks. It has managed to convey the
inaprt sion that Villa Is lesser evil than the
expedition under Pershing, and In that frame
Of mind Carranza Is not likely TO succeed very
well With a capable and resourceful adversary.
Even II the incident at Parral was. as secre-
tary Baker hopes, local and accidental" it
calls for vigorous action from the authorities,
ana the pursuit OF YiIla-the report that he
Is dead lacks eonfrmation-ealls for more
than massing OF forces somewhere behind the
American column. The Administration knows
fhis. ana II = 70 be hoped that Carranza inds

The Fourth Dimension

Editor of ''What Do You KHoD."-Please eX-
plain the Fourth dimension" Also, please give
a detailed definition of mollycoddle."
E. NJ. MOORE
We live in three-dmensonal space-that Is
i'm popular language. in length width ana
height" or length three general directions.
We comprehend distance between two points.
like two points at corners of book cover. That
is one dimension Joining those points TO the
points at the other corners of the book cover, we
comprehend the fiat surface bounded by the four
lines as plane That is two dimensions. Erect
ed upon the plane of the book cover is the body
of the boOk-its thickness-a third dimension.
Beyond this, for practical purposes of every
day life, the average intellect has not strayed.
However, in mathematics. generalization has led
thinkers to speculate upon spaces other than
those in which we live, though reasoning in this
field is possible only by the use OF symbols.
Take a line two inches long; compose a square
figure with other lines of the same length We
can express the area by multiplying two by itself,
getting four, the square OF two" Compose
n cube with edges two inches long, and we
express the contents by multiplying the "square
of two" by two, getting eight, or the 'cube or
two" Then said the mathematicians, why not
multiply the cube by two again, and get the
fourth power of two which, in geometry, would
correspond TO body with one more dimension
than we can conceive? AS a matter of fact,
correct results can be obtained in algebra by the
use of this fourth power, and of indefinite
number of powers, multiplications by the
original number, which, in the case cited,
two. In this way the idea of fourth Tor highef)
power or dimension" Is no less tangible than
minus quantities; that Is, quantities that
given for centuries i'm England and In this eOun-
try 10 a man or big hoy who is OVerinterested
in womens work, such as dressmaking per,

male who treats himself or wants others TO treat
him with undue indulgence.

Children had rather be making of tools
