DESCRIBES PRESENT
war As BIG CRUSADE
DR.. Bruce Taylor Addresses
Engineering Committee
Defense Council.
U. S. MUST GIVE ALL
Cessation Now Would Mean
Waste of'All the Nations
Have Given.

Philadelphia, Oct. 28.-Cessation Of
the world war at this time would mean
the waste Of all that the nations have
given to defeat Germany. DR.. Bruce
Taylor, principal of Queen university
and former chaplain Of the Forty
second Canadian Highlanders, de-
clared here today at conference OF
the committee on engineering of the
council of national defense.
Canada is now handing the torch
to the United States" said DIR. Taylor,
after describing his experiences on
the European battle fronts. 1.-The
present conflict Is no ordinary war,
but a crusade and the United States
must give all it has for we are almost
spent"
The speaker deplored the frightful
loss among college men, who, he said
were sent from Canada merely to
stop a gap and die obscured, with
their technical training of no avail"
But they served their PURPOSE" he
added. for they stopped the first Ger
man rush."

mately $4,000 more this year. Mr.
Peterson explained that this sum
would be necessary this year to take
care OF the added expense for caring
for the poor Of the county, which in
cludes the county hospital expense and
the poor farm. The mothers pensions
have also been increased. which win
cause the county additional expense.
he said.
| when the state announced that all
property would be assessed on it's ac-
tual valuation" said MIR. Peterson
,, Yesterday ut was believed that the tax
levy would be decreased. This was
done in most cases. The county low
,, cred the levy two mills. the city low
cred one and one-half mills, but the
school board did not lower it's levy, nor
did the state reduce it's levy.
With the school tax for district No.
! the same and with the state levy
the same, it means that the property
owners will have to pay % per cent
more into these two funds this wear.
II the property owners will stop 10 fig
ure what this will amount to. they
will find that almost all this additional!
tax expense will be taken up in these
two funds.
"Of course, the county is getting
several thousand dollars more this
year. but the poor fund and the moth
ers' pensions will probably take all
this extra sum"
Why Not Cut Down.
L. i. Harris, Clerk of the school
poaro Tor district No. !, was appealed
to last night for an explanation of The
boards side Of the question and ne
declared that the levy was not reduced
this year because the district would
need the extra money to meet the ad-
ditional expenses this year and also to
redeem $4,000 in school bonds.
THE school board will have approxi-
mately $4,000 more this year" said
Mr.. Harris. but with the addition of
new teaches and the higher cost of |
material and coal, together with the
desire OF the board to redeem more
school bonds. the additional sum will
be needed. Next year the district will
need new schools and it is up to the
school board to lower the amount Of
the, outstanding bonds to enable them
to issue more bonds for new build
ings."

Thrust the left hand under the rear curtain and grasp the lowest curtain fastener between the thumb and first finger. Give up trying to loosen this after five minutes and try the next. Give this up, also. With the thumb and finger of the left hand grasp the door :landle laying the right hand on the door, Pull back the handle and allow the door to open two inches. To divert the audiences attention. which is essential to the success of your next move, start rapid batter. Lay the left hand beside the right on the door. Making sure that the audience is listening to you, give a quick yank at the door with all your strength. This will at once open the door and rip the curtains loose. Throw the curtain under the car to conceal it. Reach inside the tonneau and grasp the wrist of the lady you wish to assist Tell her to rise and assume a stopping position facing you. When she has done so, grasp her wrist with the other hand and proceed as with the door. If the maneuver is correctly executed, the lady will bump her head against the top. This will remove her hat and her cOnscientiousness simultaneously. Re- suscitate as in a drowning case.

GERMANS WRECKED
 1O7 FRENCH TOWNS

In the reconquered section behind the French lines, 107 towns or villages out of 296 are completely destroyed, according to Morris Leeds, the Phila- delphia Quaker, who is assisting in re- construction work in the war zone. The information was contained in a letter he wRote to one hundred young men of the American Society of Friends at Haverford, Pa, who will sail soon to assist him in his work
 The letter also says 10S other towns and villages which were in the path of the German invasion had been partly destroyed and only eightyone had escaped damage
 No civilian is allowed to go back to his village unless he has place to stay, MT. Leeds wrote. and in cases of destruction, therefore, there are no civilians at all-only soldiers who are camped near or who have built tenn pQrary huts or are using built up sta bles.
