CORRESPONDENTS LOOK TAME WHEN TOMMY" WRITES

LONDON, March 31.-Those lurid descriptions of the famous "taalls" which war correspondents racked their brains to produce some months ago are cast into the shade by the en- tirely untruthful account of the mon Sters contained in a letter from a private in the Middlesex regiment to his mother. He alleges of the new war engines:
 "They can do up the prisoners in bundles like straw binders. and. ia ad- dition have an adaptation of a Goss printing machine which enables them to catch the Huns, fold, count and de- liver them in quires, every thirteenth man being thrown out little further than the others. The tanks can truss refractory prisoners like fowls pre- pared for cooking, while their equip ment renders it possible for thenl to charge into a crowd of Huns, and, by shooting out thousand spikes, Ike porcupine quillS, to carry off an op ponent on each. Though stuck up,' the prisoners are, needless to say, by no means proud of their position.
 "The cars in question can chew up barbed wire and turn it into muni' tiops. As they run they slash their tails and clear away trees, houses, howitzers and anything else in the vicinity. They turn over on 'heil backs and catch live shells in tIcir caterpillar feet, and can ce easily adapted as submarines; indeed, most of them cross the channel in this guise.
 "They loop the loop, travei forward, sideways and backwards not only with equal speed, but at the same time They spin round like top, but ia" more quickly, bury themselves, scoop out tunnel, and come out again ten miles further off in half an hour.
 "The tanks can do anything and everything; in fact, if there issany- thing which can't be done the tanks can do it"

WOMEN IN UNIFORM DO WAR WORK FOR TOMMY IN FRENCH TRENCHES

PARIS, March 3I.-One of the most prominent features of the British army on the continent now is the woman soldier. The women do no actual fighting in the trenches, but they wear military uniforms, are un- der discipline of army officers and perform military work of importance,
 It has just been decided to increase these regiments of British women, who attend to the housekeeping, cook ing and wellbeing of the "Tommies."
 The women prove to have keen spirit of patriotism and they show fine sense of subordination to discip- line and bear themselves as betitS their position in a national army. The women will be employed in every ca pacity where it is found they are able to do the work, thus releasing thou sands of fit men for the trenches.
 There are kitchens and canteenS which women can run quite as we'll as men. There are offices and pay depart ments where the clerical work can be undertaken by girls in every respect as we'll as by men clerks.
 Women are qualified in these days to drive motor cars and to take charge of technical stores.
 If this innovation had been Sug- gested at the start of the war the opinion undoubtedly would have pre- vailed that when brought into close touch with the Soldiery women would grow frivolous, irresponsible and un- disciplined. Experience has proved the contrary,
 The idea of enrolling British women to work in units on military lines Ori- ginated with themselves. Several women leaders came forward with carefully worked-out schemes, the women quickly offered their services, and in very little while there were number of organizations carrying on useful war work where the women wore uniforms and were supervised on lines of military discipline.
 It has been found that putting women in uniform and housing them in huts is immensely successful. The mere fact of wearing uniforms incul- cates a sense of military discipline. The women are extremely proud of their position They show themselves perfectly ready to adapt themselves to novel conditions. DiScomforts are treated with smile A woman ploughing her way through seas of mud in camp where the ground has become a veritable morasS will treat it as a joke.
 Without uniform it would naturally be impossible to keep control, and the sentrieS on duty would not be able to

distinguish the legitimate workers from strangers.
 It is no longer the woman'S duty to sit at home and watch and wait. The call has come for her to be up and do- ing, to equip herself as soldier, and have a soldiers sense of responsibility and the stern necessity for discipline and obedience to orders.

The question may seem to, be enc
of only academic interest, for at the
present moment there is little indica-
ton that Germany purposes to sho"
anv consideration either for our, YES
sells or those Of any other nation
EBut there are few happenings
which suggest that she may be as
posed to avoid hostilities with the
United States, if that can be done
without interfering with her subna-
rine warfare plans. The treatment
accorded the crew of the Housaton: C
is one of these, though inasmuch as
that sinking occurred before the
plans of the Germans had been put
fully into effect it is not as slgnifl-
cant as it might otherwise be. The

for the release of American sailors
captured on vessels seized by the
German raider is another. Still
others are the changes in the boun-
dar:es of the barred zone and the

The short and simple annals of
The Door is an open book all the year
round. Many plod on without com
planning, when it is apparent to ali
they meet that their condition Is
serious. Several families were sent
shivering into the street yesterday by
fre-that warm friend but terrible
enemy.
We realize that Alexandria per-
forms her part in the way OF helping
the unfortunate. And we also know
that our people cheerfuliy respond 70
the many appeals made to them
throughout the year, but as the "a
zette has done for years, we call at
tention to the work of the Co-opera-
tive Charities, the members of which
have much to do but with little al
their disposal. They again ask oul
people to take part with them II
their work. Old clothes, suitable toi
winter, would be especially welcome
at this time, as there are many &c
whom they minister who would re-
ioice to receive anything in the way
of seasonable apparel. John the
Baptist while preaching at the river
Jordan said, "He that hath two coats
let him impart to him that hath none
and he that hath meat let him &c
likewise" Here's an opportunity to
respond to- the above.

! the statement n Mr.. Mencken's dis

above, there is ground for faint
