They are now as- suming an uncertain attitude toward the Allied campaign in Siberia.

For nearly 20 years afterward she continued her battle, teaching schools in Philadelphia, Syracuse and Troy until, at the age of Al years she be- came the wife of Russell Sage, then 2 frugal banker at Waterviiet, N Y.
 Their home life was simple, despite their great wealth. Mrs Sage took such a deep interest in her husband 5 affairs that he turned over to her five years before his death complete con- trol of his business and found that his faith was borne out by her suc- cessful operations. But she was the proudest of her ability to support her self altogether independent of wealth, and of her housekeeping.
 Mrs. Sage was @ "woman's wom- an" and her charities were largely directed to the aid of women and children. She became widely known as a lady bountifur' and was so be- sieged with requests for money that she had to retire finally to seclusion Begging letters have been received at her Fifth avenue home at the rate of 500 day. So insistent were the hordes that they sometimes gathered in numbers about her doors.
 Mrs. Sage was a little woman and extremely self-controlled. She gave, and gave Hberally but was so determ- ined that her giving should be done wisely afted her husbands death she established the Russell Sage Founda- tion with S10,OO0,OOO for the improve ment of social and living conditions in the United States. Outside of this she had made large gifts including S1,000,000 to the Emma Willard Sem mary, s1,000,0 900 to Rensselare Poly technic Institute, $35O,OOO to the Y. M. and Y. w. c. A, $15O,OOO to the American SeamaHs Institute, $15O.- 900 to the, Northfield, Mass, Sem mary, S30O,000 to the Sage Institute of Pathology of the New York City Hospital. s250,O0O for a home for in digent women, and $10O,OOO to Syra- cuse University.
 She was born Sept. 8, 1928, eighth in descent, through her father, from Miles Standish, and on her materna! side a descendant of Col. Henry Pier son of Sag Harbor, N. Y, founder of the public school system in America in 17S7.

GRAND CANYON TO BE NATIONAL PARK. .OF 6OO,OOO ACRES.

Washington, Nov. 4-Congress seems at last about to make the Grand Canyon of Arizona, National Park. For years the canyon has been quite generally regarded as a park, but officially it is a section of two national forests, game refuge and a national monument.
 Tt has never been managed as part of the peace system, and has nev- CT been susceptible of developmen5 as such," says the House public lands committee in reporting favorably a Senate bill that would dedicate $50 square miles-6O0,0O0 acres-in northern Arizona as the Grand Can yon National park. This magnifi- cent gorge should now take it's place as link in the national park chain which already includes most of the nations wonderful and extraordinary natural features"
 It was thirty-two years last Jan uady that the first bill to make the Grand Canyon a national park was introduced in the Senate by the late eX-President Benjamin Harrison, then a senator from Indiana. Since then the proposal has been presented to Congress from time to time.
 Ut appears that there never has been a valid objection advanced against it, declares Secretary Lane, in statement favoring the project. Nor can such an objection be urg- ed, because the Grand Canyon be- longs to the Federal Government and any attempt to thwart a change in its status, which would distinctly re- dound to its advantage, must be by some private interest.
 Private resources have accomplish ed limited development Thousands of tourists visit the Canyon annually, but due to the lack of roads, trails and side-trip destinations the throngs have little opportunity to enjoy in full measure the marvellous grandeur of the region.
 Less than 400 of the 600,0O acres that the proposed legislation would place in the park are now in private ownership, these being held in small parcels near the rim. Obviously, the greater park of the land lies within the enormous gulf, measuring at some points 20 miles across the top. Sufficient land is to be included back of the north and south rims to make possible road development.

It now appears that the Germans who have been holding the line run ming westward through the Cham paign country cannot retreat east ward but must be diverted northward through Belgium.
 In Belgium, the fall of Ghent is imminent, for the Belgians, French, British and Americans are moving ahead rapidly. The Scheldt has been crossed at Welden southwest of Ghent while the Belgians are moving toward the Scheldt northeast of the city. This advance, if continued, threatens the whole German army in France, since it's retreat eastward through Sedan and Montmedy seems about to be cut off.
 East of the Mouse, the roads are crowded with retreating Germans, apparently indicating a retirement to the Briey defenses north of Metz.
