ITO Take French Leave" Is
Phrase of Uncertain Origin.

The origin of the phrase "to take
French leave" has been the signal for
many a Pathological contest, but the
outcome of them. for the most part,
has been TO increase interest in the
question. 1t has been plausibly sug-
gested that the custom of disappearing
unobtrusiveiy from a crowded recep-
ton, instead of Glowing ones way
through a throng of people, to reach
the hostess, is a custom which was the
natural outgrowth of courteous consid-
GRAFTON for everyone involved, was bor-
rowed by the English from the French.
Again, il has been suggested that the
French, in the phrase French leave"
has no connection with the French peo-
pie, except to the extent of what is
implied in the etymology of the word
frank" meaning free, and that the
expression may mean simply II per-
mission not granted but assumed. But
the question is further muddled by the
fact that the French have a phrase
"prendre congo q la maniere Anglaise,"
or use retirer a PAnglaise," With pre-
cisely the same significance, with the
hit at the English. In Germany the
phrase is identical with the English.
From Hilpert's German dictionary it
would appear that it is more than 100
years old, while the custom which it
celebrates, Withdrawing without final
leave taking, was an established prac-
tice in Germ my 300 years ago.

Now Famous War Tank Said
To Have Had q F0rerunner
In the Nineteenth Century.

jules Verne in '%Twenty Thousand
Leagues Under the Sea" gave an ink
ling OF the present-day activities of
the submarine boats. 1T. G. Wells pre-
u1cted the work of air raiders, and
now q historical deliver comes forward
with the statement that the tank had a
forerunner in the sixteenth century.
John Napier, laird of Murchison, the
mathematician who invented loga-
r1thms, devised a war engine some
thing after the style Of the tank.
Napier confided to Bacon's elder
brother certain secret Inventions
for the purpose of confounding "ene-
mics of Gods truth" They included
burning mirrors and a chariot of metal
double musket proof, the motion of
which was controlled by those within
and from which shot was discharged
through small holes, "the enemy be-
ing ahaSed and uncertain what de-
Tense to make against q moving mouth
of metal
the early type of tank and the con
forming of the enemy, as predicted
by Napier, was to have been accom-
plished by the tanks of the British
when they first appeared among the
Germans. Napiel's engine never went
into action, for the Scottish inventor
directed that his weird instrument Of
war be kept secret unless necessity
compelled its use. Napier, who was
born in 1850, died In 1917.

worn out with tile efforts Russia has

worn cut with tile efforts Russia has
put forth thus far in the war.
Compared to Russia. France has
done more in a single year than Rus
sia has done since its first mohiliza-
Ition order was given. Germany's
main attack has been centeTed on
France, for it has realized that
France is~tise keystone of the allied
attack. For Russia, Germany has
only contempt, believing Russia to
be potent only in mar power and
natural resources but a poor enemy
from a standpoint of military power.
There is no doubt but that in this
war Britain. France and Italy have
left Russia to bear the brnnt of the
lighting on the east front. When
Germany struck Russia those terrific
Blows shat swept Galicia clear Russia
vas left to stand the shock unaided
by q counter offensive on the west
front. But that was because Russia's
allies had spent their strength for the
time ia a futile attempt TO break the
German line. Again, Russia should
remember that fighting conditions
on the west and east fronts have been
Numerically different, Germany
has fought a trench warfare, entirely
defensive, on the west. On the east
the German armies have remained
mobile and haveneger for more than
a few days abandoned the offensive,
even when not actively battering
against the Russian lines.
Russia's illness is not exhaustion.
1t is indigestion. Russia's members
are still as STRONG as when it entered
the war, but it is suffering from in
ternsl dissensioDs that have crippled
its power exactly as q mans lighting
strength would be Slapped by q disor-
dered stomach.
What Russia needs it will not &C
cept from its allies-that is advice
and assistance III settling its Internal
difficulties. M. Kepensky is asking
from Russia's allies what Russia
needs least-military hid. Kerensky's
diagnosis ia at fault. He has worked
too long and TOO hard at one job. He
has lost his perspective.

In contrast with the failure of Con-
gress to take any action toward curb
ing of war profiteerine by landlords.
the fact is noteworthy that Great
Britain has attempted, though in q
crude and ~unscientilic manner, to
protect her people from such eStor-
ton. The British law forbids collec-
ton of rents in excess of what was
charged at the time that war began,
unless additional improvements have
been made. In other words, the
landlord may not add anything to
ground rent. While the practical
value of the Law may be questioned,
it is commendable inasmuch as it re-
cognizes the principle that landless
workers are entitled. in wartime at
least, to q place Oh the earth without
submitting entirely to tho landoWn-
ers' terms. Is Is Interesting to note
that the independent Labor party is
keeping tenants advised Of their legal
rights under this act, that they can
not be eyicted for refusal to pay in
advance, and that excess rents actual
" paid May be recovered through
civil suit. AT most. however, the
law can give but temporary help, and
II is not surprising that it has been
evadsd in many cases. But this is
better than nothing.
