been feasible.
/ have had enough of ruined
towns. and was not able TO get the
awful sights out of my head ali
night, but spent my time in bad
dreams. From Vilvorde right into
Antwerp there is not town intact.
Eppeghem, Sempst, Malines, Waeh-
lem, Berchem-all RACED to the
ground. In Malines a good part of
the town is standing and ! suppose
that the Cathedral can be restored,
but the other towns are done for.
There were practically no civilians
in any of them-a few poor peas
ants poking dismally about in the
ruins, trying to find some odds and
ends that they could save from the
general wreck. There were some
children sitting on the steps of de-
serted houses and a few hungry
dogs prowling around, but no other
signs of life.
All the way from the outskirts OF
Brussels straight through to Ant
werp the road was lined with empty
bottles. They gave a pretty good
idea of what had gone on along the
line of march.
The bombardment of Antwerp
lasted from the afternoon that we
left up to Friday noon. The dam
age is pretty evenly distributed.
Houses here and there in every
street were badly smashed, and the
whole block across the street from
the Hotel St. Antoine, where we
stayed. was burned to the ground.
The Cathedral was not damaged.
When we were there last week
the streets were thronged with peo-
pie and with motors. Yesterday
there was not a soul to be seen for
blocks together. The town was
practically deserted.
This morning the Committee for
the Provisioning of Brussels came

An Arrest and
Official Search

In the course of some errands
this afternoon I dropped in on
Baronne Lambert for cup of tea.
The baron came in, and then Villa
lobar. About two minutes later
Lambert was called out of the room
to speak with a German officer, who
demanded that he accompany him
to headquarters. Villalobar went
with him to see what was up, and ]
stayed behind to see if I could be
of any use. We stood by for a lit
tie over half an hour, and then
when Nine. Lambert could stand it
no longer I jumped in my car and
went down TO see what was happen
ing. ! found Villalobar on the side
walk, getting into his car.
He was depressed and said that
he had been obliged to leave the
baron with the Germans; that he
was suspected of nobody would say
what, and that the Germans were
going to search the house. ! went
back and had them all ready for the
shock of the invasion. They were
standing by for the search party,
when in walked the baron, smiling
broadly. They had sent him home
under guard of two armed men, and
were to search the house in the
course Of few minutes. While he
was telling about it two officers ar
rived, profusely apologize, and
asked TO be shown over the Red
Cross hospital, which had been in
stalled on the ground floor They
were taken all through the place,
and found only lot Of German SOL
diers carrying off the beds and other
belongings. Then they searched
the baron's private Office and that
of his son, and withdrew after more
excuses.
There was nothing to show for
the whole performance, and nothing
had been accomplished beyond max
ing a lot of people nervous and APP
prehensive. That is the sort of
thing that everybody is subject to
these days, without any hope of re-
dress. And, of course, this was the
least serious thing that could hap
pen.

~PrSSELS. oct. II, f914.-We
X are quite up in the air about
IL what we are to do next.
Monday afternoon went
.,ound TO headquarters to get a
';.,,,.posser to take Harold Fowler
- 70 England. While the mat
=, was being attended to an officer
,sme in and told me that Baron
Won der Lancken wanted very much
- eee ne. When ! went into his
nom he said that there was moth
NO in particular that he wanted to
see me about, but that he thought |
would be interested in hearing the
,sus and in telling him something
ofmy trip.
We talked along for some time
,bout things in general, and then
he told me that the movement Of
troops toward the coast was pro-
ressing rapidly and that the Bel
nan government would soon be
driven from the country, Then,
outting the tips of his fingers to-
cether and looking me coyly in the
eve. he inquired: "And then, my
dear colleague, what will be your
oosition?" He elaborated by point
ipr out that, the government to
which we are accredited, having left
the country, we would be merely in
the position Of foreigners of distinc-
ton residing here, and that we
would have no official rank or stand
ing. The idea evidently is that
they do not care to have US around
any longer than they can help.

Quick at Repartee

! later learned that Villalobar
had been more ready than | with
his rstort. Ia the course Of a call
later in the afternoon, Lancken had
talked the same matter over with
hin, and had wound up with the
same genial question: "And then,
my dear colleague, what will be
your POSITION" Without any hest
tstion, Villalobar replied: "My sit
uation will be just the same as
yours. We are both representa-
tyss of our country in a country
not our own. We shall continue to
owe each other respect and to make
the best of conditions"
The latest news we have this
afternoon is to the effect that the
government has been driven from
0stend, presumably to the Isle of
Guernsey. II would be pleasant, in
away, to retire to a retreat of that
sort for few months rest, but |
fear there is nothing of that sort in
store.
To-day ! ran across an order
from the Governor-General forbid
ding civilians to ride bicycles. The
order concludes as follows:
Civilians who. in spite of this, con-
iinue 10 ride bicycles expose them
selves 10 being shot by German troops.
II cyclist is suspected Of planning
70 damage railroad, telegraph or tele-
phone lines. or of the intention of at
lacking German troops, he will be shot
according to martial law.
Apparently it is no longer neces-
Sry to 20 through the forms of
proving that the cyclist had any evil
intention. The mere suspicion is
CROUCH to have him shot.
In the course of a visit to Cen
eral Won Luttwitz to-day, one of the
colleagues remarked that the Ger
mans must keep the Belgians alive,
and could not allow them to starve.
LGttwitz was not at all of that mind,
Tor he said with some show of feel
ny:
The Allies are at liberty to feed
Inc Belgians. If they don't, they
are responsible for anything that
may happen. If there are bread
riots, the natural thing would be
Tor US TO drive the whole civil popu-
lation into some restricted area, like
me Province Of Luxembourg, build
osrbed wire fence around them,
and leave them TO starye in accord
Anee with the policy Of their allies. "
And as the German policy is
H'VIe or less frankly stated as a de-
termination to wipe out as many
u the enemy as possible without re-
gard 10 what is or has been consid-
''ed as permissible, it is quite within
me realm Of possibility that they
would be prepared to let the Bel
gan people starve. In any event,
you can't gamble with the lives of
wen millions Of people when all
you have to 20 on is the belief that
ss'many viii be guided by the die

How to Shop and Take Care Of Baby
at Once.
A hint for the woman who must take
her baby with her on shopping trips
will not come amiss. This is not q
practice to be encouraged, but there
are times when the baby absolutely
must go along. If she has one of
those small basket gocarts which can
be made stationary at a minutes no.
tice she will find it convenient for lift
ing the baby on and off the car, she
will not have to hold the child in her
lap, or, what is worse, stand with it in
her arms; she can wheel the cart
through the stores, and when it is time
for lunch-here is the best part Of it
she can lift the cart bodily to the chair
at table or counter and bring the baby
to convenient high chair height. A
woman who uses one Of the little carts
continually says that she has had q
straw bag made to fasten on the back
of the cart, into which she can drop
her small parcels.

A portiere that is little more intri-
