Gear Ferdinand of Bulgaria fears the coming of the
Greeks The ancient reputation Of the Hellenes has
not faded.
The Allies BlunderS

The capital mistakes made by the allies are as
follows: They believed that a friendly agree
ment with Bulgaria was possible, altho that
country was treaty -bound to Berlin and Con-
stantinople long before the war.
They cherished illusions concerning King Con-
statine, who, above all else, was brother-in-law
of the kaiser. They organized the Dardaneles
expedition, which should never have been at
tempted Even if this operation had been judged
technically feasible, its futility would have been
apparent if the allies had reazed-and it was
their arch error not to reaize-that the strategic
key to the whole European war was the
Danube
The mere occupation by the allies of the ter
ritory stretching from Montenegro thru Serbia
to Rumania, would have resolved all the essential
problems of the conflict Cut off from the central
empires, Bulgaria and Turkey, whose arsenals
were depleted by the Balkan disturbances Of
1912-1913, would have found it impossible to
make strong stand against the allies. Turkey,
who had been mprudent enough to defy them,
would have been obliged to open the straits with
in a very short time, for sheer lack of munitions
to defend them.
This opening of the straits would have been eff
fected by strong pressure by the allies ON the
south of Hungary Moreover by the same action
the central empires would have been barred from
re endorsements. and supplies from the Orient
Germany, finding herself cut off on land in the
south as she was blockaded by sea in the north,
would have been obliged to come to terms.-An-

LOS ANGELES, July Go
into business il you're looking for
thrilling adventure. So advises
Miss June Rand. inventor Of the
SASSY Jane" apron.
Miss Rand has a manufacture
ing plant that brings in $1,000 a
month. A year or SO ago all she
had was five dollars, borrowed
money-and an idea.
The longing for a trip to the
Orient was what really caused
Miss Rand to start down the
pleasant road to wealth. She had
to raise her own funds and cast
about for way.
Many time she had struggled
in and out OF an inconvenient
kitchen apron. That gave her
the idea. She decided to make
better apron-and she did.
Women friends marveled at
the chic style of the apron and
at the ease with which it was
slipped on or off. They wanted
aprons like the one Miss Rand
had.
She solicited orders to get
money for her Oriental trip. The
value of her idea was revela-
ton.
Everybody liked the Sassy
Jane" apron. Miss Rand's BUSH
ness grew so rapidly she decided
to go into 1t on a big Gale. Then
began her unusual adventure.
Sassy Jane" aprons are now
being turned out by a force of 30
women operating power sewing
machines. Miss Rand employs
one city salesman and three over
the territory west of the Missis
sippi.
In addition to the apron,
which she has copyrighted. the
enterprising young woman manu-
features 118 other varieties OF
women's and children's garments
all Of her own design.
IT use originality, quality and
lots of buttons on my products
says Miss Rand. There is an
excellent opportunity in business
for women with idea OF their
own"

ALLWAR
CABLES
(United Press Le.ssd Wire,

WASHINGTON. D. O., July s.
War censorship far broader
than the voluntary plan has been
put into force by Secretary Of
War Baker.
He calls 1t protective meas
ure.
At present oablegrams from
American correspondents with
Pershing's forces are relayed to
Washington, in care of the secre-
tary of war, and transmitted to
the bureau of public Information,
where they are vised.
Inquiries as to what authority
Secretary Baker had in installing
this new censorship are answered
by him with the statement that no
patriotic newspaper or press asso-
citation will question his author
iy when the protection Of Ameri-
can lives are involved.
The new censorship is a direct
result of premature publication of
the arrival of American contin-
gents abroad while others were
still in the danger zone.
Chairman Creel of the publicity
committee will go to New York
tonight to consult with the heads
of the press associations in IN ef-
fort to arrive at satisfactory
censorship sysem. At present
there is great delay.
Officials here say that Gen.
Pershing cannot undertake to do
all the censoring abroad. as this
involve new both from the field
and from tn arrival port.
The government has @ ontrol
over the cables. This appears to
be the sole authority upon which
the present censorship is operat-
ing.
In other words, IL a newspaper
or press association does not sub
NIT to a censorship, the govern
ment will imply close down on
its cable privileges.

A success! That, as briefly stated as possible,
Is the gist of Tacoma morning after reflections
on its Fourth Of July celebration.
The fireworks and the rest of the Stadium pro-
gram, the big parade, the weather, the crowds,
the goddess and her stars and the rest of it came
up to the expectations of the projectors of the
enterprise. They are entitled to community's
thanks for their labors.

The Bone Dry Referendum

If Senator Williams wins his suit to add some
800 names to the referendum on the bone dry law,
and then wins a suit to knock out the application
of the Reed dry law in this state, and if congress
then fails to pass the prohibition clause in the
food control BILL refuses to tax booze to death
and few other little contingencies like this do
not happen, maybe this state will again be in the
moist group. All of which means that Johnny
,Barleycorn is dead one but Senator Williams
doesn't know it.

Dear Miss Grey: I have q
method of canning fruit
juices for use later in making
jellies which l have used
with great success for over
ten years. l thought 1t
might come in handy for a
number of people at this time
so am sending it to you to
print IL you care to:
I cook the fruit and strain
out the Juice thru a bag, just
exactly as il jell were to be
made at the time. Then heat
the juice, and can or bottle
while hot, using, of course,
sterilized bottles or cans.
When ready to make jell, add
the proper amount of sugar
and proceed as IL making Jelly
from freshly pressed juice.
By having the juices canned
you can combine different
juices thus having a great
variety of jell. Raspberry
juice combined with apple
Juice makes an excellent
jell. MRS. G. A. s.

the cost win be cent more, and the
cost viii advance cent month until
| at the end Of the year 1918 the maxi
mum cost will be $4.23. The other way
e. buy the certificates is to purchase
thrift stamps for IS cents apiece. These
stamps are pasted on q card, and when
sixteen Of them have been bought in
the course Of q year they can be ex-
changed for. o certificate, with . few
cents added. according to the date Of
the exchange, which is redeemable
January ], 1928, for IS. Under either
plan the certificates net the purchaser a
good interest on his investment.
Washington's. quota Of the two bill
lions which the Treasury expects to
raise by this plan is 7385,Ooo. If there
are 100000 people in the District today
and this is low estimate-the per
capita purchase of certificates by the
residents of Washington making up this
quota will be $1s.46. Considering that
all of this could be paid in 25-cent in
stallments this is small drain upon the
individual resources.
As an opportunity for saving this plan
is. exceptional. It is within reach of
everybody. The purchase in sixteen
payments of certificate, to be worth
S. in five years, is easily possible for
every wage Garner, however small the
income. This puts it within reach of
every individual to contribute to the
governments war revenues. It thus be-
comes patriotic opportunity.
Save your pennies and buy thrift
stamps! Everybody can do it. Every
body should do it.

Gratis might have pushed to victory their
tclaims to success at the polls. He check
mated them, heartened. his own side and
Iaid the foundations Of tine continuation
Of republican national control.
Naturally, this embittered the democ-
racy, and especially the southern wing.
It was in the south-in Florida, South
Carolina and Louisiana-that thes bat
tie; planned largely by Mr.. Chandler,
was fought. For years, throughout that
section, no man was the subject Of warm
er depunciation. -
Time, however, softened all that.
There was much more to Mr.. Chandler
than his record in that controversy. He
was a broad and very able man, and
subsequently served the country, both
in. executive and legislative Office; and
the south, along with the other sections
of the country, paid tribute to the sue
cesses he achieved. One of his closest
friends and sincerest admirers was Sena-
tor Tillman, from state where years
ago Mr.. Chambers name was never
mentioned but in dispraise.
And now that Mr. Chambers death
has brought out reviews of his public
services, another southern man testifies
most gracefully and generously to what
the country owes him. Secretary Dan
iels says:
81 have made some: study of the COM
parative services Of the distinguished
men who have held the office of Secre
tary of the Navy OF the number few
had the vision and the ability of Sec
rotary Chandler. He strengthened the
Navy and began the construction of
new types of ships, which. continued by
Whitney, gave it such ships as it had
never had before. He had an apprecia-
tion-perhaps better than any other
man who has filled the ofiiee-of the
dividing line between civil and mill
tary control in the military departments
of the government, and he gave ex-
preston to those sound American ideas
in manner that will help preserve the
best American policy and the best ma
tional traditions"
This is something the family and
friends of Mr.. Chandler will always
cherish 1t relates to a feature of Mr..
Chambers record which will grow in
importance as time passes-wiH be re-
called whenever our naval exploits are
under discussion, and honors awarded
to those associated with them-when the
Navy, dating from Mr.. Chambers adj
ministration of, the Navy Department,
shall have attained the size desired now
by all. %
