The exact order matters little

WHAT BRITAIN HAS DONE.

John Masefield, the English novelist, writes as follows to the New York Times to set that paper straight on Britain ac- complishments and sacrifices in this war:
 In your issue of today in the leading article, headed Changing the Draft Ages, your leader writer uses the following words:
 Great Britain, which has put 100000 men into uniform and into war work at home, and must have lost a good many more than 100000 men at the front, etc.
 Will you allow me to say that your lead had he written, Great Britain, which has put nearly 8,000,000 men into the armies and navy, and hardly less than another 8,000,000 men and women into war work at home and abroad and as actually lost in the field and at sea more than Z, 2,50O,0O0 men, besides some hundreds of thousands incapacitated through sickness" etc.?
 If preparations already under way may be taken as criterion, the coming Fourth of July will be celebrated by the French in a manner which Is unprecedented. Maurice Damour, member of the chamber of deputies, has written a long article for the Journal calling upon all Frenchmen to join in the celebration He writes: The Fourth of July is as much a French hol- iday as American. It Is a world holiday France must not content itself with few official manifestations The whole people of France must celebrate. All the houses in Paris, and the provinces must be decor ated with French and American flags. Pro- sessions must be organized in Paris. Flow CTS must be deposited before the statue of Washington and the American flag must be raised at the same hour in all cities towns, and villages of France. In all the schools at the same moment, the teachers should explain the meaning of the celebra- ton and the reasons why France and Amer ica should remain united forever. Let us celebrate July Fourth, which in l776 saw the birth of American liberty and one of the noblest nations of the world

FRENCH UP TO DATE

u -. r. o8gGrs
During the present world crisis, lam
guage, In common with all things per-
tanning to the human family, is undergo
ing a definite Transformation. This is
already noticeable in our own tongue
Perhaps. however. the nations of Europe
have been more affected by 1t than the
United States. as they have been closer to
It, To a student of language who has
been at all familiar with the vocabulary
of camp and cantonment there has come
the certainty that In many ways English
dictionaries are far from adequate When
peace Is finally declared 1t will be found
necessary to revise our standards of
word usage considerably In order to bring
our language UP to date. The pursst may
be shocked at the liberties that have
been taken with a historic tongue and
the pedant may hold up his hands in hor-
ror, but the dictum of several millions of
men will have to be needed.
or all the European nations directly in
touch with the hardships and the thrills
France has felt 1t the most and has re-
ceived most definite impression from It,
For nearly four years the tide OF battle
has surged over a few square miles Of
her fertile soil. The entire burden of the
struggle, territorially has largely fallen
on her shoulders in the western front
The boom of cannon, the whistle of bull
let's and the rattle Of musketry have be-
sound to the humble peasant and quiet
villager of north France This is now a
part OF his life and he translates 1t into
the language which he speaks as he en-
cages In his daily tasks.
In addition to the civilian viewpoint
we must also look at the soldiers side OF
the question. Millions OF the flower OF
the youth Of France have been torn
from their wonted duties and cast into
the. seething caldron Of fierce and saw
age warfare. Suddenly. and almost with
out warning. they have been snatched
by the grim necessity OF war from the
retirement Of a neat and comfortable
home In village and hamlet and depos-
tied in the abnormal environments OF mud
and filth that goes with trench fighting
of today
Under these conditions is 1t to be Won
dered at that the ideals of the past are
lost in the requirements of the present?
The French are Jealous OF their language
and doubtless bewatl the fact that 1t is
being subjected to rough usage at the
hands of Its friends. But this Is no time
for clubbing and the fancy of the mo-
ment oyerthrowS the established custom
of centuries. Many cherished idol Is
being cast down from its lofty pedestal,
and, may we be pardoned for saying 1t,
perhaps the language will be no loser
thereby There is sure to come from
this melting pot of race and nation

Eclipse of the Sun.

The moon came near hiding
the sun from view in this section
last Saturday afternoon, at one
time leaving barely a fourth Of
Old Sol to peep forth. Promptly
at OBS the first small slice ap.
peared to be cut from the sun.
This slice grew and grew, and
many of our people watched it
through smoked pieces of glass.
The moon in its journey across
the path reserved for the sun
began at the right side, slowly
worked its way to the left, cross.
ed its path and then ended toward
the upper half. At the greatest
point of the eclipse the sun an.
peared as a crescent, about 7:45
o'clock. In Florida and thence
westward over a fifty-mile width
strip the eclipse was total; dark.
ness descended, and lights were
necessary; and then after the
eclipse the sun came forth as
bright as ever.
