RUSSIA'S PREDICAMENT.

Hope for complete victory over Germany is
expressed in a communication received by
President Wilson from the Russo-American
Chamber of Commerce at Moscow, which says in
part
1.-The Russian people, after being inflicted with
such serious wounds in such a tragic manner
temporarily paralyzing country, firmly relies
upon actual support from the allies in an eco
nomical sense, which may prove of special i'm
portance in the restoration of normal conditions
of Russian life, for the reconstruction of the
power of Russia
Events in Russian territory have produced a
revival of interest in the situation and there are
the dangers that threaten to grow out of a
policy of permitting the Germans to conduct
their Russian policy unhindered.
If it's all right to retire generals on account
of age, what's wrong with retiring senator's be-
cause of senility?
We are still pestered with patriots who think
everything England does is all right and every
thing we do is all wrong.
BY the way, isn't it about time for the Fed
eral Trade Commission to call Heney back to
finish that job the food hogs?

belly in advance with fatted calf T. R. would

Wartime Pies.

The wartime pie is a disaster
methinks its crust is made of
plaster; the filling isn't sweeten-
ed rightly, for sugar must be
handled lightly. l eat my pie OF
peach or cherry, of apricot or
loganberry, and in the eating
find no pleasure, but rather an
guish without measure. 1t tastes
as though the peach or cherry
was doped by an apothecary.
How long, l ask, while l am eat
ing, will armies on red fields be
meeting? How long will col
onels and commanders, and all
potential Alexanders across the
battlefield go securing? Be
cause of them we are devouring
tough pies which look like iron
wedges, and set our teeth on
brittle edges. Because some
kings and kindred geezers were
stuck on lining up as Caesars,
we are consuming pies of leath-
er, all riveted and glued to-
gether. Because the kaiser had
a vision, dream which seemed
to his elysian, dream of Ger
man flags a-floating wherever
human skates are voting, from
far ,Cathay to Athabasco, from
Cork to Omaha, Nebraska, we're
eating pies which break our jaw
bones and send US waiting to the
sawbones. The grip of war our
souls is pinching; we're brave
and strong, but not unainching
some burdens are too sore and
grievous to bear without a sigh,
believe us. We miss the pies
that mother made US, and who, l
ask you, shall upbraid US?

WHERE WOUNDED MEN
YIELD TO DAY DREAMS

Homes.

me surgeon has extracted the I'M
partially distributed bits of shrapnel
from your works. The wounds have
healed. The wheels go round again,
and the clock ticks.
But il doesn't keep correct time.
This business of calling "Time I" on
the Boche means so many broken clocks
nowadays that the master-menders
cant keep them on their tables after
they're mended. So the question where
they shall sit around while they're be-
ing regulated looms large.
The Red Cross answers that cues
ton with its convalescent homes. 1t
mas six OF these in operation. A suit
able place is sometimes do
nated-and management and equip
ment are provided by the Red Cross,
willis the Army has furnished disci-
pine and never-failing supply of con
yalescents.
These homes mean that men who
are scarcely hospital subjects. yet who
can by no means so back to their du-
ties, have a place that does what
ii ome" does for the French or Eng
lish soldier, what "home" does for
any one, in fact, when the doctor gets
through.
You know. He says: You're all
right now. It's only a matter of nurs-
ing and food"
But you know he's only looking at
the works he's tinkered. and that the
soul within you is grousing as II never
did when the body was down and out.
1t wants something, and it doesn't
know what it is. But If 1t doesn't get
1t pretty quick the works are going TO
get gummed again. You know your
mother could find out what that dog
gone thing is right away and hand it
to you on plate. But General Per
shing Won't let you go TO her.
And the War Department won't let her
come to you
Then you're taken TO q Red Cross
convalescent homeland there is the
very thing you wanted! But you
couldn't describe 1t even then TO save
your life.
1t is bit of ccddling, and pretty
surroundings, and women's faces, and
light laughter and time to play and all
that sort of thing. 1t is forgetting the
crash Of war and remembering that
there are pleasant, soft voices. It's
even such things as gaily-foNered sofa
pillows to jam into corner and make
nice lolling place while you read
and smoke and -alk. It's slippers in
stead of trench boots, or day-dreams
in place of the nightmare of killing.

THE RED CROSS GORDON.

An American Red Cross worker who
was among those volunteering TO help
in the hospitals and at the station
where the hospital trains arrived, over
heard some of the wounded talking
about the American Red Cross.
"Geel We'd a starved if it hadn't
been for the Red Gross" said one boy,
and then, laughing at his own exagger-
alton, he went on to explain the cir
cumstances under which the Red Cross
representative with his division had
done some timely service. The Ger
mans, of course, were to blame, for
they retreated so rapidly that it was
practically impossible for the supplies
to keep up with the pursuing Ameri-
cans.

less than two hours, another reclining
figure explained, "and they were still
going when l was knocked out. For

but hard tack, and for some days be-
