JOINT REPLY is IMPROBABLE
Allies Will Send Separate Answers
to Austrian Note.

London, Sept. 23.-The Austrian note
inviting the belligerents to a confer
ence, not being a collective one but
addressed to each government separ-
ately, 1t is regarded as unlikely that
any joint reply on the part of the Allies
will be forthcoming. Moreover, 1t is
pointed out, the attitude of the various
Allied governments has been made
sufficiently clear by responsible min
listers for the European countries, as
has that Of the United States by Presi-
dent Wilson.

presidencies of half dozen public
spirited enterprises to look after in
addition to his own considerable bus
mess affairs. Now, he is in on war
work and is also leader in helping
his modest but patriotic church. There
is a saying about the sword wearing

stay in the scabbard long enough.

The Linen Shower

Are you preparing to do your share
in the nationwide linen shower which
will be held up to Oct. 9Th If so send
in your contribution any day this
week to Mrs. C. II. Lloyd at the food
administration office, opposite the
Harrington Hall hotel The Red Cross
commissioner of France has cabled
that the hospital supplies are in urg-
ent need of the following: 1,250,000
bath towels, 100000 hand towels,
], 100000 handkerchiefs, 125,O00 nap
kins. The plan to get them is a
beautiful sentiment as well as most
sensible one. This plan known as a
'linen shower" is to ask each family
to contribute one article or a set of
household linen from it's reserve
stock.
This call on US is not optional; it is
an allotment sent out by the govern
ment, and has to be met by a given
time. If the linen you donate hap
pens to be marked with your name,
no objection will be made. 1t may be
for such strange things have hap
pened-that a sheet, towel or hand
kerchief bearing your name may be
used by that son. or husband or friend
of your sover there. What thrill
of joy would be his to find a familiar
or loved name on the article so neces-
sary to him while convalescent.
To many individuals once in a life
time comes crisis in which they are
called upon to devote themselves
wholly and unreservedly to the ac-
complishment of some definite object,
when, like Hamlet, they must, for the
time being, "wipe from the tablet Of
their memory" all other things, and
make the fulfillment of this purpose

their sole business. This is situation
that confronts US now. May we so
meet it that none may surpass US In
our efforts to contribute to the COM
fort and welfare of those in the direst
distress, that when this struggle is
over, our record will be one that we
will net only be proud of, but CRATE
full fer having had the opportunity to
serve.

THE following verses were written
during the battle of Ypres, April,
1915. The author, DIR. John D. Nc
Cree of Montreal. Canada, was killed
on duty in Flanders, January %,
1872
In Flanders fields the peoples blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks. still bravely singing, fly,
Scarce heard amidst the guns below.
We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe!
To you from falling hands we throw
The torch. Be yours to hol6it high!
If we break faith with US who die
We shall not sleep, tho peoples grow
In Flanders fields.
