THE TIDAL WAVE

When Germany launched her tidal
wave of destruction on August l,
1914, the rush of the kaiser's armies
seemed irresistible-and was almost
so. The swash of German arms up
on Belgium was as the laundering
force of waves upon bank of sand.
The flower of Belgium's manhood
was destroyed, the virtue of women
polluted by the redhanded hordes
turned loose upon civilization.
Swept back through the Mazurian
swamps by the Prussian wave, the
legions of Russia were murdered in
their tracks as they stood in the mire
and broken ice, hands raised high,
praying for mercy-coarse laughter
was the answer. They were shot
down in inanimate masses, victims Of
the merciless machine gun.
The wave gained momentum,
surged further south and Serbia and
Roumania were left bleeding and
ravished, the lustful invaders writ
ing in blood and flame the word
"kultur" to the southwark until
they Joined hands with the Turks,
murders of virtue and everything
bearing the name of Christianity.
The waves of hell were also beat
ing ceaselessly against the rock-rib'
bed foundations of France and Eng
land. Countless thousands of brave
men fell before the tide of blood wa
checked; countless thousands o
women and girls met worse fate
than death on the battlefield; onl.
charred and crumbling ruins nov
stand where beautiful French cite
formerly graced the landscape.
Then the unexpected happened
for Germany. Hundreds of ship
loaded with the bravest soldiers tha
ever faced a battle line were sen
across the Atlantic and the ebb It'd
of the German tidal wave was sc
in motion. And like the oceans tid'
the subsiding Of the Hun waves
leaving the country leveled; forest
and cities are destroyed; everythin
is put to the torch--everything ra
ed. But the ebb tide will be as grei
as the tidal wave which gained i
incipiency at Berlin. The red watel
will not still until they have reache
the place of their inception, the pa
aces Of Berlin.
The French and Belgians ha'
avowed vengeance-and Vengean'
is rightfully theirs. The Prussiar

SHE[[-SHOCKED SOLDIERS ARE
 BEING CURED

A CHATEAU IN LORRAINE, July II (by maiD D.-American soldiers sui fering from shell shock now are hur. ried in the shortest possible time to a base hospital established here for the special treatment of such cases. The element of time is regarded by the specialists attached to this hos pital as of prime importance. Efforts are made to deliver such cases to the hospitals within forty-eight hours after the first symptoms develop. A special ambulance service has been organized for that purpose. Once here, the shocked soldier remains here until the treatment of his case is fin ished

If It is not curable 1t is because the case was not brought here soon enough OT because II nau CNTOnlC louHua tion before the patient went into the army. Nervous symptoms resembling what has been called shell shock have developed under the simple strain Of service in soldiers who have never heard a shell explode.
 Base Hospital IF treats both these aspects of war neurosis, and only ac- cording to the highest standards or neurological science. Hypnosis IS seldom used. No dangerous expert ments are allowed, and isolation IS not followed excepting as simple ward routing. The patients are kept to- gether and the nurses are kept with them, giving their company as well as their experienced care, and both are part of the cure.
 The patients themselves, when they

have recovered sufficiently, become ex officio members of the stan; they cooperate with the doctors and nurses in helping the other boys out of their muddled condition of mind and their unsteady state of nerves.
 The most obvious part of the treat ment is the use of tools or the in- struments of sport. A shaking hand that Is unable to retain anything in 1t gradually steadies with patient grip ping exercise, and this method has the advantage of occupying the mind while it re-educates the hand.
 One boy whose head and hands were shaking constantly was seen weaving things out of dyed ends of string on a loom made for him out of odds and ends of lumber by other patients. Through his attention to the work and by the growing firmness of grip he Is obtaining through prac- tice he Is gaining control Of his nerves and will be cured in a few days. A machine shop with turning lathes, tailoring shop and the ambulance garage furnish occupations for many,
 All cases of palsy and paralysis re- sulting from concussion are cured here when taken in time.

LEWIS MAY HEAD
TELEGRAPH LINES
Probable That BurlesOn Will Be
Nominal Director Put
Not Active.
LEWIS is A SPECIALIST
Grew Up From Coal Miner to
Congressman and His Mind
Runs to Figures and Econo-
mics.

Washington, July 1S.-The Presi-
dent has signed the joint resolution
or congress authorizing him to take
over and operate the telegraph and
telephone lines, and co-incidently
there came trustworthy reports that
former Representative David J.
Lewis, of Maryland, will be the act
uai operating head of the wire sys-
TENS under government control.
Because of his position as chief of
the service of communication nv
mail it is expected that Postmaster
General Burleson will be the nom
inal director general of the telegraph
and telephone systems Indications
are, however, that Mr.. Lewis will he
the actual director general and will
have practically complete authority
over the lines.
Mr.. Lewis is now a member of th.
united States tariff commission with
little to do. The tariff situation has
been all upset by the. war He would
relish the telephone AID telegraph
job above everything else and is re-
garded in Washington as the logical
man to put In charge Of the govern
ment system.
WIRE Communication His Speciality.
For many years Mr.. Lewis has spe-
cialized Inf study OF communication
ny wire. He has long been an advo-
cate or government OWNERSHIP OF
telegraph and telephone lines and
while in congress the Maryland re-
preventative. was the acknowledged
authority on such matters. He was
also specialist in parcel post rates
and was part author of the parce
post law.
Mr. Lewis has a mind which runs
to figures, economies and the on
Grafton of public utilities. He has
always insisted that the government,
couid operate the wire systems at =
great saving to the public and the
companies. If Mr.. Lewis is put in
active charge of the wire systems the
companies may expect economies al,
along the line.
Mr.. Lewis began hfe as a coal
miner. He came to the house and
was chairman of the committee on
labor when he entered a senatorial
contest in Maryland and was defeat
ed. Shortly thereafter he was an
pointed by President Wilson as a
member of the tariff commission. a
position he now holds.
Mr.. Lewis investigation of com
munication by wire in the various
countries of the world is regarded as
largely responsible for the repeated
recommendations OF the postmaster
general that the wire systen.s be ta-
ken over. This was not done In time
OF peace but war probably will give
the two an opportunity to try out
their theories about government op-
erations.
