PETROGRAD E
 Is NOW OBJECTIVE
Germans Said to Be Preparing for Military Operation Against
 Northern Russia.
Associated Press Dispatch.

New York, Feb. 15-The Bolshe- wiki having refused peace on German terms, Germany has again taken up military operations against Northern Russia. This resolution is reported to have been arrived at at a confer ence between Emperor William, the military and political leaders. Petro- grad will probably be the objective point of the new invasion. Negotia- tions at Brest-Litovsk broke up in a stormy session, after which Trotzky, the Bolsheviki leader, enunciated the plan of "no war, no peace" This was rejected by Germany, which holds that Trotzky's declaration ended the armistice. It is reported that Ger many will support the Ukraine against the Bolsheviki. Canadians again made successful raids at the northern end of the western front and the French continue their raids in the Champagne. Artillery is ac- tive on the Italian front. American and French artillerymen are active in the Champagne east of Rheims.

ONE WOMAN WHO KNOWS.

There is one German woman in Wisconsin who does not hesitate to call a spade by it's common name in commenting upon the land of her birth. A letter from Neillsville, in that state, printed in the Tribune, quotes her as follows:
 If the Germans here don't like America let them go back to Germany where the poor people live like swine. It took me three years to save enough money to get to this country, and I had to borrow little then to get a ticket for the trip. The people there wear wooden shoes, held on by strap across the top, and 1 wore a pair when came here, but saved enough out of my first weeks wages to buy pair of leather ones. That was more than could save in a month in Germany. They live like hogs over there, whole families in | two small rooms, where they dress and undress before each other. It
 seemed like heaven to me when l got to America and had room all to myself.
 "The American people have treated me fine and never one made me feel like a liekspittle, as the rich people do in Germany. The German
 people here must not take the Amer ican courtesy and forbearance for fear or cowardice-no, sir, or they will get an awful bump soon. l know the American reserve and strength better than most people of my nation ality. I think they have given us ev- cry chance in the world to get along | and prosper, and it is mean and dir ty thing now to go to bragging and encouraging our country's enemy, Germany, country that is so con ceited that it thinks it can run the world. Germany is the worst place. in the world for person to live, and I would as soon be in hell this min ute as to go back where l came from in Germany"

mucn nappier than that or the man who was pitying him, that whenever John joined a group of friends there was real welcome in every smile of greeting, that people generally un- consciously smiled when they ad- dressed him and spoke in pleasant tones, that children instinctively loved him. He knew that though John was an unusually modest man, he must often realize, with great satisfaction, that he really helped lot in his lit- tie part of the world, that a good many people were at least a little better and happier because he lived. He knew that the respect and admir- ation and affection John had earned by the courageous way in which he had met misfortunes must be great consolation-a truly great reward to him. Altogether, he wondered if John hadn't made greater success of life than any other man he knew.
 Every "poor John" finds his rich rewards, if he is clear-visioned enough to see and appreciate them. And he doesn't have to wait till the next world for them, either. Life is made up of causes and effects, and the laws of human nature, as well as of the compensating earth, make it essential that bread cast upon the waters shall return after many days. It may not come in tangible profits. It may be a more golden harvest in the hearts of his friends. And some times it may, indeed, seem many days in coming. But it will be a reward commensurate with the sowing, all the same.

VERNON CASTLE.

The news of the death of Vernon Castle near Fort Worth this morning will bring stroke of sorrow to ev- cry good American. Vernon Castle first gained renown throughout America by reason of his ability as a dancer. During the period of his dancing career he was the subject of much ridicule from that portion of the public that is quick to criticise the individual who does not toll for a living. When Vernon Castle quit the stage to take up flying in England the public was quick to appreciate his loyalty to the British emblem, and when he distinguished himself in Flanders, where he accounted for more than a dozen machines, the men, tion of his name came to be mingled with a tone of love and respect. War has worked many wonders not differ ent from this. It has brought men from obscure places and made of them figures to be nationally known. It has brought men from idleness and from the highest circles of social ac- tivity and placed them in national respect, and made heroes from mater ial least expected to make sacrifice and display patriotism.
 Fashion hints bring the news that skirts this spring and summer will be much shorter than usual, but for the sake of modesty, of which it is said there is a little yet remaining, shoes will be worn much higher. One naturally wonders how long it will be before the women are forced to wear hip boots.
