MEMORY IN OLD ACE
BY H. Addington Bruce
w EAKENING of memory is normal phenom
w non of old age There are some Peep

w TEAhENlNG or memory IS norman phenome-
w non of old age. There are some people
who despite advancing years, retain re-
markable memory power Cato is said to have
learned Greek at eighty.
But the rule is for the memory to weaken IN
some degree with the general weakening OF the
physique. Often it becomes quite unreliable, so
that nothing is remembered from one minute to the
next.
Old persons thus afflicted ask the same ques-
lions repeatedly because they forget not only that
the questions have been already answered, but also
that they have been already asked. When evening
comes they unable to recall what they have
been doing during the day.
This condition is pathological. 1t constitutes
real tragedy of old age And often 1t is rendered
more tragic by other defects that develop with it.
The victim of this condition of continuous am
nesia, it is medically termed, may become
strangely suspicious of all around him. Decisions
of persecution may develop, directed against those
nearest and dearest.
Under the influence of the decisions, personal
belongings, even things of the most trihing value
perpetually hidden away The hiding places
being then forgotten it is perpeualy insisted that
the hidden articles have been stolen
Life becomes hard indeed both for the
one who forgets and for the ones in whose care he
is. The latter all too likely to lose patience
and the more likely if they do not appreciate the
true state of affairs.
Reproaches will only make matters worse The
extreme forgetfuneSs, stated, is patnologlcal.
1t is rooted in diseased conditions of the cells OF
the brain. Reproaches, by causing nervous lrrlta-
bility, damage the brain cells still more
Whereas real help may be afforded by treat
moods, and the other to improving the general
health.
Observation shows that the periods of greatest
forgetfulness and suspiciousness often colncloe
with digestive disorders. Consequently II is I'M
portant to keep the eliminative organs active and
to regulate the diet carefully.
When this is done life becomes more toleraole
for all concerned False accusations are heard less
often, and temporary improvements In memory
may be noticed.
Milk eggs, and other foods that do not require
nv
it is mistaken kindness to give any sort or 1000
too abundantly. . =,
Moderation in diet is of Importance to all OLD
people 1t is of special Importance to those atnlct
ed with morbid loss of memory and deluslonal
ideas.
Sometimes, when the suspicousness reaches the
point of brain storm and there is inconerence
of speech and much restessness, sedative drug is
needed.
But on this point physicians advice should
always be taken The responsibility for admins
tering bromdes other sedatives is not lightly TO
be assumed.
And the more tactful and sympathetic the gem
eral treatment, the greater the attention paid 10
questions of diet the less frequent will be the need
for sedatives

The Fifth German Drive.

If the latest hun offensive continues inef-
fectually it has begun, the miltarists will find
themselves in high embarrassment at home.
1t is now nearly four months since they plung-
ed into the bloody adventure which they assured
the German people would bring victory and peace.
The furious Picardy drive which began on March
the twenty-irst along a front of fifty miles swept
forward for seven days and came within striking
distance of vitality important Amiens before 1t
stopped. But stopped it was, and despite
their stupendous sacrifices the Huns were really
no nearer their longed-for decision About a
fortnight later came the Flanders drive. This
penetrated to a depth of fifteen miles and came
within striking distance of the highly important
British position of Hazebrouck. But on the tenth
day this also was stopped far short of its object
i've. The Marine drive followed, beginning May
the twenty-seventh and hating finally week
later. In that essay the Huns forged forward 20
Chateau Thierry, their extreme advance mark
ing penetration of thirty miles. But they failed
to reach Paris they had failed to reach the
Channel ports to sever the Franco British COM
muncations. After a six-day ull the storm broke
again, this time in the Disc drive along a thirty
five mile front between Montdidier and Coucy le
Chateau. Three days suffced to bring this effort
to a standstil the German advance amounting at
lance being subsequently recovered.
These four plunges cost the Kaiser tremen-
dously; and at the end what did he have in way
of fulfllment of the promised victory and peace?
He had so many square miles of shell-ripped
ground and a few conquered positions of strate-
gic value. But the Allied lines, though bent were
still unbroken; all the great detectives of his four
onslaughts still unatttained; the morale of
the Allied armies was higher than before and the
the spirit of the Allied peoples more than ever
determined. Further. the American fighting
forces in the had increased to a million
men and were continually augmenting
Facing this situation, the Huns waited more
than month before attempting another forward
movement During that interim occurred two sig
nifcant episodes. First the Austrian drive on
the Italian front met with disaster; this was at
least gloomful disappointment in Germany and
source of aggravated unrest in the Dual Mon
archy. Next, the German Minister of Foreign
Affairs was dismissed for mis- offense to the war
lords in declaring to the Reichstag that peace
could not be won the battlefield Won KuehI-
mann's dismissal and the selection of the extreme
militarist, Won Hintze, his successor showed the
purpose of the Potsdam gang; plainly they were
resolved upon sticking to their old blood-lustful
brigandish Accordingly the fifth drive in
the West launched
What if it continues as it has begun? Or
what if 1t proves more decisive than those pre-
ceding? Won Kuehmann will have been justi-
fed and Ludendorff will have been condemned by
events situation that they may easily lead
to events of great potentiality within the German
empire

a
Among the well-known girls who have en-
tired the naval service are the two daughters Of
Postmaster General Burleson. One is assigned
to duty at the entrance to an admiral's office to
interview prospective visitors, and the admiral
reports that the percentage of callers who pro-
coed past the brass railing with Woman Burle-
sons consent are decidedly few.
Among the specialized women, workers in
the navy department are five finger print e1-
perts. To these young women is entrusted the
important and difficult work of taking finger
prints of enlisted men. Other women classify
and file the records, and so complete is the filing
system that prints of any in the naval
force of 100000 can be located in from three
to five minutes. The navy relies on its finger
print system to identify men in of casualty.
When properly taken, finger prints are an in
falble proof of identity, as the possibility of
two persons having the same prints is only one
in $50, 900 ,00O. -....-. r
Some of the yeoman are expert translator.
Others cable decoders, and still others are
craftsmen. No radio operators recruited as
few naval radio operators employed on
shore duty, and the navy is firm in its decision
on shore duty only for its women. So far only
one woman cook has been admitted to the ship
galleys In this case. the applicant was an ex-
pert scientific cook and was taken in instruc-
tor to ships cooks with the rank of commissary
steward. This expert food economist has turn
ed out cooks in eight days without endangering
the navy's digestion.
The need of the navy regards woman
power is stenographers, typists, and bookkeep-
ers, especially stenographers. The head OF one
navy bureau states that he could use nearly
three hundred stenographers now, while other
bureaus set no limits.
So much is said about the girl yeoman that
apt to forget that there are large num-
Der of men enlisted in the capacity Many
of these duty in the navy depart
ment, navy yards and naval training stations.
But the regulations of the navy allow enlisted
men only six months shore duty at a time. For
this reason men can be used on shore only in
temporary capacity, and after the six months al

the general opinion of navy, officers, who explain
that the yeoman ship duty may be required

Americans have good TO be proud of
the part their troops played in the fiery outset
of the latest German offensive and good reason
to be gratifed at the efficiency with which their
military machine functioned under the strain of

the organization could not be determined save by
actual test. All accounts note the smooth effec-
