No lncumhrance.

A considerable cOmmingllng OF social
classes, writes "A correspondent OF
the Manchester Guardian, occurs ia
our village, owing 90 the townfolks'
practice OF renting summer cottages
among us, and living therein in neigh
borly fashion with the working people
for whom the places were built. In
one such case the resident from town
was AN unmarried lady; the genuine
cottager next door had husband who.
10 put il mildly, was no blessing TO her.
Making a friendly call one day, the
wife was greatly impressed by the
pleasant air Of comfort and well-being
achieved In cottage otherwise the
duplicate OF her own. She looked
round with a mildly envious air aud,
with little sigh, earnestly remarked:
"Oh, Miss Il, YOU ought 20 be up
py-no 'usband nor nothin'."

Group lmmodesty.

Why Is ii that men who lndlvldu-
ally are modest to the point Of timd-
ity are the very opposite when they
get together?
The United States has number OF
militia regiments which have attached
the words battling" and lighting" TO
their names. They did this before
they were much more than organized
and they have retained the words
though they have seen no fighting and
smelled only the powder of the tar
get ranges. There are clubs and as
sociations which gather seemingly. for
no other purpose than To absorb fiat
terry. The sense OF self-lmpOrtance
Is nowhere SO concentrated, so humor-
ously tangible. as I'm the halls where
congresses aud state legislatures con.
duct their affairs.
We suppose that our friends the
psychologists, have many. joInted
word for this group immodesty. But
we wonder II they have cure for II.
II appears TO be increasing In our
country, and II would seem wise, II
there is remedy, 10 apply IL speedily.

AFTER MANY YEARS OF WORK
Commission Finally Publishes Its

A dog once bit a boys leg, so the
latter's father promptly sued the own

ling the case was submitted TO an IN.
dependent inquiry committee, which
many years after gave their decision
as follows:
1--WE find the dog partly responsible
for the bite-not the owner, whom we
have established has no cannibalstic
tendencies. Considering the independ-
ent action OF the animal. which point

regretted that the canine intelligence
did not consider the portion of leg
between il and the said bones.

EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS

Washington-Pres Wilson, from
a sickbed Friday, ordered the arming
of merchant ships against Germany's
submarine warfare, and at the same
time issued proclamation calling an
extra session of congress to meet
April 16.
The presidents decision came fol-
lowing the action of the senate in re-
yising its rules to permit prompt &C
ton on important questions and the
submission of formal opinions by
Secretary Lansing and Attorney eGn-
eral Gregory that he has the power
to arm merchantmen without action
by congress.
The American government Saturday
began the actual preparations to arm
American merchantmen against Ger
many's submarine warfare
When the vessels sail under the pol
icy Of a-ued neutrality they will do
SO with the full backing of the adj
acknowledgements in the form
of war risk insurance and naval guns
and gunners. 1t was made clear Sat
urday that in the background will be
the entire resources of the United
States-ready for action should Ger
many attack an American ship in VIC
lation of the warning of the American
government.
The state departments view of de-
fensive armament, as expressed, was
that the mere appearance of a Ger
man submarine. of it's periscope near
an American armed vessel would en-
title the vessel to take all measures
of protection, on the presumption that
the submarines purpose was hostile.
This was based on Germany's an
nouncement that her submarines
would attack without warning any
belligerent or neutral merchantmen
encountered within the barred zone.

London.-General Frederick Stanley
Maude, in command of the entente
forces in Mesopotamia, telegraphed
Monday the welcome news for the
British of the occupation Sunday of
the city Of Bagdad, the chief Turkish
city in Mesopotamia, and formerly
the capital Of the empire of the Cal
iphs.
The fall of Bagdad, besides ending
German hopes of Near Eastern domi-
nation based on the Berlin-Bagdad
railroad will reverberate throughout
the Mohammedan empires and, it is
believed, will more than rehabilitate
British prestige in the far east, dam
aged by the earlier loss Of Kut-El-
Amara.
Perhaps no more welcome news
could come at a time when the Brit
ish public for the first time, owing to
the submarine war, is beginning to
feel the effects of the war in a gfeat-
ly reduced food supply besides being
thrown into depression by the revela-
