AMERICAS PART IN THE WAR

heavy losses and long casualty lists. believe, be a great force for peace, the first sign that we were slowing down might act as did the Russian revolution to arouse a German hope that the war might be won.
 A few weeks ago, when Russian sol diers were putting the front and there was still no suggestion of an American army in France. Germany believed she could win the war and adopted a pol
 icy of extreme rigor. Her statesmen and publicists proclaimed victory in sight and asserted that this victory would mean the real world domination of Germany. But the Russian soldiers returned to the battle and an American army arrived in Europe with results that are plain. There has been a profound change in German expectation and this change has shown itself in unmistakable ways.
 The submarine, the separate peace with Russia, the impotence of America-these have all proven illusions. But on the other hand, if Russia again pauses, if the United States contents itself with sending only first expedition to France. German hope may revive and German determination to fight on may return. Then we shall lose many lives, both of soldiers now in France and soldiers who will ultimately have to be sent from this country.

WHAT WOMAN SAW IN GERMANY

out of one-fourth pound. by dissolv-
 ing it and adding three tablespoonfuls
 of flour and one-half pint Of skinned
 milk War cakes were baked with one
 egg instead of four. as the recipes
 usually called for. and in our Ameri-
 can colony we enjoyed these at our
 bridge parties and afternoon sewing
 bees until toward the last of our stay,
 which ended with the declaration of
 war by America. when flour was too
 hard to obtain and the hostess could only furnish the tea. while the guests brought the sugar or saccharine. Geese worth about s2 in peace times, com manded from s15 to SIS each. Eggs could be bought on cards only, two eggs a month for each person, but,
 secretly and taking great risk, we could get them at some stores at 20
 cents a piece. Rice. instead of cents. cost 75 cents a pound. but was diff
 ficult to get at any price.
 Not only was food scarce but other necessities as well. Soap was hardly
 known. From a recipe I used, one pound of laundry soap made sin pounds, by adding one-half pound of | washing powder and few centsf worth of ammonia, potassium, sodas | and borax. the whole mixture beina | boiled 10 minutes. The great scarcity of, food and many of the necessities of life had bad effect on the morale of the people. Persons who were law-abiding, and whose character was absolutely above reproach in peace times, did not hesi- tate to stoop to underhand methods to | obtain food. This often led to dire con- sequences, as servants, janitors and employees very often denounced their employers. For this reason people were | afraid to discharge dishonest servants, who might retaliate by reporting to | the police of larders filled with for | bidden treasures. Many rich families bought hundreds of pounds of cocoa,
 sugar, coffee. and condensed milk, and many of the food riots were mainly due to the unequal and unjust division of supplies.
 1 In spite of terrible losses, Germany still has a sufficient number of fight l ing men, and though they do not look

LUKE niLuKE SAYS

Any time you hear a woman complain ing that she married badly you can bet that her husband has the same opinion.
 If small boys were killed as frequently as their mothers imagine they will be, the race would soon be exterminated.
 Once in while you will meet a man who spends so much dime wondering over the vastness of infinite space that he hasn't time to work his regular ter ritory.
 The ld-fashioned woman who spent a lot of her time preserving her fruits now has a daughter who spends all of her time preserving her complexion.
 Why is 1t that you meet the man you owe money to eight times day, and that you meet the man who owes you money about once in eight months? If a beauty sleep produces the desired results we know some women who should spend IS hours in slumbering every day. Men imagine that they are good de- teetives. But there is something wroni with a woman who hasn't discovered 8 new neighbours pedigree from to before the new neghbor has been around | for two weeks.
 | Somehow or other man never real | izes how attractive blondes are unti after he marries brunette. You have often noticed that blather. l ing ignoramuses two other men make out of themselves when they get into 2 l fool argument, haven't you? Well, tha
 is just the impression you leave on othel
 men when you get into fool argument l The man who Is always dreaming Q

 | man will wait for four months be | fore ordering the new suit that he needs But when he does order 1t he wants i | the next day.
 The reason why married man doesn' do a lot of things that he should d for his own good is because his wife ha told him to do them and he won't d them just to show that he Is independent
 The happiest marriages are those wher both parties realize that neither Is per feet and who so ahead and make tn best of what they got.

 C1fIHoUGH in Germany at the out
 break of the war, and remain
 ing there until August, 1915, we at no time saw signs of suffering on the part of the people. but when we returned to Berlin after the Christ mas of 1915. we found all changed Either a five months visit at home had materially altered our perspeSt- i've, or else something had happened to Germany's economic situation. There was a noticeable scarcity of raw ma terial rubber. leather. wool, cotton and other commodities were getting less and less plentiful. Even pack ages were no longer tied up, because string and twine, and even substi- tutes made of paper, were rarities Though food was fair and not over diff ~f1cult to obtain up to Easter, 1916, we gave up housekeeping and moved to a boarding house in order to do away with unnecessary worry and respon- sibility.
 Gradually, however. different edibles
 disappeared from our table and later
 we had substitutes or "ersatz," for the principal articles of food. A lit tie American boy at our pension saw
 the humorous side of it. and asked
 for his mothers breakfast in the fol lowing way: Please give me for my mother coffee ersatx, with milk ersatz and sugar ersatz and bread ersatz and butter ersatz." This was a good illus tration of existing condition. Instead of using coffee they had some mix. ture which had the color but none ot the injurious qualities of coffee; milk was mainly given to small childrer and to very sick people. A little skinned milk was obtainable, and alsc condensed milk at a high price. bu only by few persons Milkfilx and oth. CT substitutes were principally used They were put up as white powders oi questionable ingredients and had to bs dissolved. Saccharine. a harmless sub stitute, lacking, however, in nutrition tablet form and was usually dissolved in water. A few drops of this fluic gave sufficient sweetness to any food Bread consisted of mixture of rye and wheat flour adulterated with DO. tato or yellow turnip. Turnips were plentiful and took the place of pota, toes. which were scarce. The German. seemed to like this vegetable, ana powdered and dried, used in the bread it did not taste bad.
 The lack of fats caused the great est suffering. Butter and margarine were hardly obtainable by the poorer and middle classes. The wealthier fam lilies bought these fats secretly, pay ing as high as $2 and more for ; pound of butter and $4 or s5 for Z pound of oil. At our pension they made three-fourths pound of butte

sending Tobacco to Europe

T find that the public fails to under stand that cigarettes and tobacco cannot be sent by parcel post to France, unless they are going specifically to soldiers or those actually in the employ of the American government in some military capacity" said J. A. Smith, foreman of the parcel post department at the Bir- mingham postoffice.
 Tt seems that the French government has a monopoly of the tobacco industry and gets big revenue from it, but witf true French poiteness is willing for Uncle Sams boys to have their smokes and chews without paying a tax, while making her own sons come across.
 We are still receiving parcel post for the neutral countries, and for England, France and Italy, but at present the service to Greece for some cause has been discontinued.n

(Charlevoix Harbor) By Sara 1easdale. Here by the blue lake harbor
 watch the ships steam in; Up the clear wind of morning
 Their smoke climbs black and thin. Their whistles break the brittle air;
 They beat an angry track; But oh, the gentle sailing ships
 That never will come back! Where is the scarlet Rosabelle That brought the mill its grain, Her white sails dripping with the sun, Or grayed against the rain? Where is the Northern Lady, With cedar logs weighed down, Whose captain with a wooden leg Went clicking up and down? And the little Queen of England, That had so fresh an air When the captains wife leaned on the rail With the sunshine on her hair?

 Where are you anchored now?

Showing Made
 at Fort MePhersom

Im IRMINGHAM will soon vel ID come home for brief visit be- fore they report for active duty her young men who have undergone in- tensive training at Fort McPherson for commissions in the national army.
 After strict weeding-out process, 1900 men remain at the training camp and will receive commissions this afternoon. Among them will be two young men from The Age-Herald, who have stood the test and come out with flying colors.
 Birmingham is proud of her young officers-to-be, who turned from va- rious callings and professions to adopt military career. While some of them had had no previous military training, and others, as result of close confinement to offices and desks, were not in the best physical condition, yet they buckled down to rigorous discipline with a cheerful spirit and an enthusiasm that noth- ing could dampen.
 The hardships of military life, in their case being intensified because of the limited time allowed for whipping the rockies into shape, soon ceased to be irksome, as their strength and stamina increased.
 They are as fine a body of young men as anyone would care to see and they will give a good account of them- selves, whether they serve at home or abroad.

"JEs A FOOL NrGGER,

From the Pittsburg Post.
 "Jes fool nigger from Norfolk, va," was responsible for Gmany starving ble stomachfu1 of corn bread His name is Washinton Smith He was discovered by Prof Robinson Smith, formerly of Yale, who was one of Herbert c. Hoover's most valuable aids when he was administering the work of the Belgian relief commission.
 Washington Smith was standing dis consolately against what had once been a lamp post in a section of Bel gium that had been overrun by the Germans. Prof. Robinson Smith came along in an automobile. He saw the bedraggled Washington Smith and asked him what he was doing in that region The negro explained that he had been wanderer for the greater part of his life and that when the war broke out he foud himself in Belgium and had been unable to get out. | Professor Smith had been an expert on dietetics and he had been eudgel- l ing his brain how to teach the Bel gians to eat corn instead of wheat. The relief commission had been quite suc- cessful in getting corn, but wheat was almost unavailable.
 DO you know anything about cook ling?" asked the professor
 Deed ah do, vas, sah deed ah do,'' replied Washington Smith.
 l Questioning him, Professor Smith discovered that the negro had been a cook for several years and had been a chef in several southern cities. How ever, he described himself as quoted "Jes a fool nigger."
 Professor Smith, who has been more or less of an adventurer himself, took a chance Washington Smith was in a district from which it was impossible to take him without permit from the

Marketing Crops
 to Be Made Easy

1T' HE experience gained this year
 1 in marketing food crops in Ala hama will be worth a great deal to the farmers and to the public in gen. eral. The food preparedness bureau of Birmingham, which is working to bring the men who produce the crops and the men who will handle them into close touch is encouraged at the progress being reported. Mar keting will be made easy.
 One of the most important things to be done is to induce the farmers to prepare their crops, especially their surplus corn crop, for market. The corn should be shelled and sacked" in two-bushel bags. A corn sheller is a comparatively inexpensive machine and in this day of business-like meth ods on the farm it is indispensable. Crops of various sorts should likewise be properly prepared for market.
 Now that Alabama's corn produc- ton has gone beyond the 10000, ,000- bushel mark, an extraordinary effort should be made to increase it to 100,- 900, ,000 bushels in 1918. Another i'm. portant food crop that should be in creased in Alabama is wheat. One million bushels harvested last year and about the same quantity threshee this year, beats the production of 1915 by something like 100 per cent. But . million bushels is far below wha1 would be expected of Alabama. There are fine wheat areas in this state. II
