FRENCH PRESS COOL
 TO PoPE's PEACE PLAN
Figaro Says the Note Will Cause the Central Powers to Set Forth War Aims.

Paris, Aug. 1.-The peace proposals of Pope Benedict have met with a cool reception in the French press. Newspapers which, without being clerical or Catholic, are not satisfied. The EclaiA the strongest clerical morning paper. limits it's comment to speaking enthusiastically of tsle claus es in regard to arbitration and a so- ciety of nations. The Figaro says the popes note eventually will cause the central overs to set forth their war aims, those of the entente being all ready well known.
 The Matin draws attention to the point that there is no reference by name to Alsace and Lorraine. It con- cIudes: What the pope has trans mitted to us are the peace offers of the central powers"
 The Catholic Gaulois makes dis tinction between the solemn office of the pontiff in decreeing articles of faith and the expression of purely hu- man opinion by the pastor of the peo- ples, which constitutes a political act and says the peace note belongs to the second. category.
 The Petit Parisien, the most wide ly read morning newspaper. says the note is even more vague than was in dicated by the forecasts. It express es astonishment that crimes of the war are not denounced.

BIG BROTHER MOVEMENT
 AMONG LOCAL SCOUTS.
Boys Are to Render Whatever Service
 they Can to Soldiers Families.

For some time ''big brother" move ment has been under way in Boy Scout circles, and on Friday announce ment was made from New York coli corning the matter.
 Each of the Boy Scouts of America will adopt a "big brother" from the men who have been called for military service, according to the New York amour ncement.
 It will be the duty of the Boy Scout to call at the home of his "big brother at least twice each week to see whether he can do anything for the family. and particularly if there is no one in the home but aged people. He will also charge himself with keeping the sol- dier informed as to the news of his home town, including baseball. If the soldier has not relatives to whom he can write concerning his needs, he will be particularly urged by the orga niza- lion to take advantage of the little brother who will be named for him. The movement is meeting with local favor.
