WONDERFUL ACHIEVEMENTS,

~The Public Square, the official
Journal OF the Cleveland Chamber
Of Commerce, in its January issue
brings an article by George Smart
Editor The Iron Trade Review
which contains the following comics.
sions:
The European war brought
a wonderful period Of prosperity ii
1915 the main. impulse has come
from the tremendous demand TOT
munitions etc. There is abundant
reason ior believing that prosperity
will continue throughout the year
unless the war should be suddenly
ended
Wonderful, truly wonderful. what
we have achieved! We have to
tremble now that a sudden peace
may break out and deprive US OF
the possibility Of further feeding the
war by the sale OF explosives and
hideoas w~ar-machines for the pur.
pose OF killing human beings at a
snug profit Of perhaps 5000 or more
per life destroyed and per widow
and orphan made in America.
But then: If that catastrophe OF a
sudden peace should really be{a1
this country OF peace there is one
slight comfort: The sooner peace
comes, the sooner those ugly words
in foreign countries about Human.
iry, American Brand, THE Vulturcs
Of the War etc. will die out. Even
now they will persist for maybe 20
or 30 years and Americans viii have
to hang their heads in shame when
they hear them; but the longer this
war-pfosperity lasts, the longer lived
those nasty phrases will become.
OF course this Is a very poor CON
ISOLATION in case Of such a disaster

The Latest English information.

January is. 1915.
In the Liverpool Weekly Post. Sat
Dec. ii. / find the following.
KAISER growing Weak
a. Germany had Enough.
b.. The Terms
"The Germans are beginning 10
feel that they have had enough.
on course the Kaiser realized be

entered the war. The German army
has not succeeded at one single point
since the war began. Entire Ger
many sees starvation staring her in
the face.
Even the German shells show the
effect Of this condition for Of late
they are Of SO poor a quality that
most OF them don't even explode, 30
OF course they do little, II any,
damage"
THE English soldiers have learned
to catch them like balls. an old Eng
fish pastime.)
But he goes on: I'VE must assert
ourselves. Our main desire is TO
put Germany out of power for one
century at least, and TO 10 this we
must exact the surrender Of the
entire German Fleet; the restoration
to us OF Heligoland and the giving
up by Germany of all her African
possessions. From all appearances
Germany win be glad to accept u
terms"
In the same issue, in an article
headed Babies & Marriages, APP
pears the following;
"A most surprising preponderance
Of male over female babies born in
England and Wales during the wal
period is shown in the Registrar
Generals Returns just published.
DR.. w. B. Colquhoun says the
phenomenon is profoundly mysterious
and seems to suggest that this is a

Nature ton English territory only

to the front and being killed Il did
not know any English we're being

(who not only knows what condi,
tons are in England, but has also
given the German condition his very
valuable attention.. Il found that
births registered in Germany have
fallen off so much that they show a
decrease of 20% or about 100000
below the normal in one year"
And now, my dear Editor. since we
have at least found out the weakness
OF the German army. the harmless.
ness Of German shells, and the fact
that Gods Providence is confined
entirely to the English in preserving
the equilibrium OF the population,
thanks are due the English writer
for this information.

IT WIS HIGH TlEE TO TAKE
THE CAST ihDlA IS kKAY.

Maybe the following paragraph
from a London correspondence in
the Newark News sheds some light
on the question, why the East
Indians were removed from the
front in Flanders:
Then there are the Indians.
They're brave men, but they get
horrible homesiek. Their scheme IS
10 hold their hands above the
trench parapets to have their finger
tips shot off by snipers 50 that they
may be sent home. We have had
whole wards Of these case-, but we
don't shoot the Indians for this
trick. We fog them and send them
back TO the trenches"
These words arc part Of an inter-
view the correspondent, Mt. Cecil l.
Dorian, had with an English hos
pital physician.

seagulls looking on, while lather flew
about his machine like furry Of
snow, Aviator II. p, Christoiferson
this afternoon few over Long Beach
at height OF 500 feet and complete
ly shaved himself as the machine
tore along at a speed OF more than
60 miles an hour. Christofferson
lays claim to being the only birdman
who ever has executed this feat. The
stunt was done to prove the stability
of the passenger-carrying biplane
which the aviator operates on the
beach here. The flight covered dis
tance OF more than ten miles.

ACTION DUE IN MEXICO.

The president says that Americans
who enter Mexico do so at their own
risk. and that the United States gov
ernment can not intervene. This
policy was a proper one so long as
the republic to the south was a hot
bed of disorganized revolt, and so
long as its government was not rec
ognized by the United States and
other governments. Then 1t was a
fight-it-out game. and the devil take
the hindmost." Americans knew con-
ditions, and those who we're willing
to assume all the chances for the
lure of gold had no complaints COM
ing If they lost their heads along
with the natives. Now, however, the
condition is entirely changed. The
Carranza government has been ac-
corded the recognition that places it
on a plane with the nations OF the
world. Wilson should have pursued
his watch and wait policy little
longer and have given the greasers
an opportunity to exterminate each
other rather than to have given the
moral support of recognition to a
faction that lacks much OF having the
trouble where it can be controlled.
There is not the stability about the
Carranza government that there was
about the Huerta regime. But hay-
ing given it the o. k. of the United
States, some action is due when
American citizens are taken out and
butchered by the score.

FEED THE BIRDS.

The state game department is send
ing out a plea for the birds. 1t asks
that during the winter days when the
ground is covered to a depth of many
feet with snow that the birds, song
sters and game birds, be fed and
cared for. Thousands Of birds are
forced down from the hills by the
heavy fall of snow, and not only are
they having trouble in finding food
but the quail and other game birds
become easy prey for the law viola
tor. Grain can be scattered under
the trees where the birds can find 1t,
or apples and other fruits placed out
for them. The cores and peelings Of
apples are especially relished by the
birds. While attention is paid to
the appetites OF the feathered, watch
should also be kept out for cats and
for the two-footed providers who
would pot whole covey Of quail or
set traps for them If they believed
they could circumvent the law in so
doing. Already a number Of in
stances Of the finding of traps are
recorded.

BOMBS ARE HURLED AT
JAPANESE PREMIER OKUNA
(By United Press Leased wire.)

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
Toxic, Jan. 13.7-Secret police to-
day hunted the man who yesterday
hurled two bombs into the carriage
of Premier Okuma, but without harm
to that official. AS soon as he had
made his attempt to kill Okuma, the
man slipped away in the crowds, and
thus far all efforts to trail him have
been unavailing.
In some quarters It was believed
