Dardanelles Expedition.

Mr.. Asquith said the Dardanelles ex-
pedition was primarily naval one, be-
cause Lord Kitchener proved to the
satisfaction of the war council that
troops to make it joint military and
naval undertaking were not available.
The war council spent three weeks in
examining the country's available re-
sources in men and in obtaining opinions
of experts. British and French naval
expert opinion favored the enterprise.
The adverse view of Lord Fisher. then
first sea lord, was not founded on
technical naval objections, but upon his
preference for a different objective in
a totally different sphere of operations.
The delay in sending troops. Mr. As
uuith continued, was due to the Rus
sian position, which was then bad, and
pressure was brought to bear by both
the British and French commanders-in-
chief to keep their troops in France.
Mr.. Asquith asserted the Dardanelles
operations had saved the situation in
the Caucasus, prevented for months the
detection of Bulgaria to the central
powers. kept 100000 Turks mobilized,
destroyed some of the finest troops in
the Turkish army and contributed to
the favorable events witnessed in
Egypt, Mesopotamia and Persia.

LONDON. March 21.-An energetic

Lord Kitchener was a masterful man.

and disposed by nature to keep his own
counsel" said Mr.. Asquith. But il is
mistake to suggest that he lived in lsola-

as to the conduct of the war That is un-
true but it is true that during the early
months of the war he acted as his own
chief of stan.
when war broke out the general stan

were taken by officers who had been in

the attacks made on Lord Kitchener,

But the greatest honor was conferred upon the ELGIN SIX
when Secretary Of War Newton D. Baker in a personal letter
appointed it the Official Scout Car to report transcontinental
road conditions to the War Department-to gather information
that may prove most valuable to the War Department in emer

unbelevable-added a crucial test.
Such engine and car performance was deemed impossible by
those who KNOW motor cars. 1t is difficult, therefore, to convey
TO those unfamiliar with cars just what this record, or rather this
series of records, really means.
The record breaking run from Chicago to Miami, Florida, the

Lemons Beauty!
Strain lemon juice we'll before
mixing and massage face,
neck, arms, hands.

Here is told how to prepare an in.
expensive lemon lotion which can be
used to bring back to any skin the
sweet freshness Of which it has been
robbed by trying atmospheric condi
tions. Wind-chafe, roughness, tan
and redness are warded off and those
tell-tale lines Of care or of age are
softened away.
The juice of two fresh lemons
strained into bottle containing three
ounces of orchard white makes a
whole quarter pint of the most re-
markable lemon skin beautifier at
about the cost one must pay for a
small jar Of the ordinary cold creams.
Care should be taken to strain the
lemon juice through a fine cloth so
no lemon pulp gets in, then this To-
ton will keep fresh for months.
Every woman knows that lemon juice
is used to bleach and remove such
blemishes as freck1es. sallowness and
tan, and is the ideal skin softener,
smoothener and beauti6er.
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up quarter pint of this sweetly fra
grant lemon lotion and massage it
daily into the face, neck, arms and
hands, and see for yourself.
