"AMERICAN PERIL"
Europe Apprehensive of Combined
German-American Attack.

Rome, Oct. 10. The fear that
America may build vast navy is
causing great worry to some OF the
European nations now at war.
1t is argued that larger Ameri-
can navy will oblige England to find
a way to avoid being pinched at some
future day between German fleet
and a United States fleet.
Prof. Pantaleoni, who holds the
chair of political economy in the
Rome University, in an article pub
lished- in the monthly Vita Italiana,
says:
"The birth of new sea power OF
the first rank is inevitable, and as
such must be considered by the allies
as most important political factor
Obviously, he continues, the United
States cannot be officially admitted
to the peace conference, but account
should be taken of it's interests and
desire. The only way to avoid the
American peril is then to impose dis
armament on Germany. Europe must
not be exposed to combined German
American attack.
These two nations have already
worked together in Manchuria, where
only the intervention of France and
England compelled them to submit to

To All Democrats:

The undersigned were appointed by
the National Democratic Committee
as Auxiliary Finance Committee, Tor
the City of Alexandria, and have re-
ceived an urgent request that We call
upon all Democrats to help the cause
Alexandria Democrats have thus
far done nothing.
We, therefore, call upon every
democrat in Alexandria and sur
rounding country to send US such
contribution as he or she can, wheth-
er large or small.
Send something, if only few
cents, and show your interest. We
will thankfully receive any AID
whether $500 or 10 cents.
Remember that this is a big coun-
trv and that there are many close
and doubtful states; and the Nation
al Committee must have large means
70 carry on a successful fight.
The Republicans have large inter-
ests that contribute to their over
flowing treasury.
The Democrats must depend upon
voluntary offerings, and mainly upon
great number of small ones, to
make up their necessitous treasury
Send your contribution to any men,
Der of the Committee, and, whether
it be large or small please send at
once.
It is greatly needed.
This is call to women as well as
men. Respectfully,

POULTRY ON THE FARM.

No other form of intensive aori
culture is better suited to hell
feed our rapidly increasing pop
citation than poultry raising. A
very small area devoted to poul-
try raising will produce enough
to supply a family. Could the
entire farm produce as much ac-
cording to the area as that which
Is used to raise poultry, there
would be larger crops and better
profits for those who till the soil.
A small flock of fowls even under
conditions of low prices and little
attention given to the folws may
afford considerable revenue.
The fowls on the average farm
usually have few restrictions.
They must let the crops and the
stored grain alone. but with this
exception they may have the
courtesy Of the farm; roost where
they choose and eat what they
can find.

EASTER COMES LATE THIS

think t the unusually late date
that Easter falls on this year:
in 1913, only three Years ago.
Easter came on the 23rd OF
March, the earliest in 81 years;
and this year 1916. it comes a
full month later, the BIRD of
April, which is the latest date
for Easter in - years.
The larger merchants through

what effect a late Easter would
have on the retail trade. and the
majority look at it in this way:

MAKING OVER LAST YEAR S
CLOTHES.

The collars this year are high
and close around the neck, most
of the coat collars being of fur.
The sleeves are long, set in al
the shoulder and tight at the
wrist. Some of them have cuffs
and some flare little at the bot
tom over the hand, though most
of them have a simple strip of
fur around the bottom at the
wrist. In fact. fur has been
worn more than it is this year.
At is especially seen at the bot
tom of the skirts, the sleeves
and around the neck. and at the
bottom of the coat. which comes
a little above the knee.
Most of the coats give a sug

are not always of the same mat
erial; if you had a long, rather
worn coat last winter, you can
make it into one of this winters

blend with it, for suit.
The jumper effects are still
worn. have recently came from
New York, and one of the fash

part of lace or chiffon, folded in.
Any thin summer frock can be
used for the upper portion par
ticularly if it looks soft and
silky. The skirts, of course,
are full.
Buttons are good deal used, so
get out any old buttons you may
have put away; also, steam up
any scraps of velvet you have and
use them for edging the belt
or skirt.
If your skirts is very skinny
buy enough chiffon to make a
