EUROPEAN NEWS AND VIEWS.

London. Jan. England has been
getting its delayed Christmas mail
from the trenches this week and II
has been unusually heavy. While a
number OF letters sent from the front
contain money orders for loved ones
at home. there has been an unusual
number OF souvenirs OF the battle.
fields and trenches. Some idea OF the
army postal problems may be gained
from the fact that nearly 100000
letters and post cards and $4,000 par.
cells are sent daily. Every soldier re.
ceives an average OF four letters a
week and writes one.

Is Japanese macaroni. which seems to
be replacing the Italian product. It
is called "wundon." and is very white
