LONDON, october 26.
J ~ERMANY is not prepared for un-
conditional surrender. If she is
~ ready to ask forgiveness for her
wrongdoing and to promise to be
good in the future it is because it pays
and not because it is right. The abdica-
ton OF the Kaiser seems likely to come
soon, however the exchange of notes
finally results. Not only the Socialists, but
considerable number of Liberals, consider
him a stumbling block in the way of peace
The veteran Macmillan Harden has
raised his voice urging the Emperor to
sacrifice himself as he demanded of many
millions of his subjects. Harden said:
sion: first, enter into a new bond with
Germany and Prussia, contenting himself
hereafter with being subordinate to the
nation and, abandoning all idea of being
independent, descend from the pinnacle of
supreme lord in war, politics. Kultur and
art. He must solemnly declare that he in

Secondly, he must take UP the cross and

Kaiser Karl is in desperate situation
with apparently no possibility of holding
his empire together. Hungary is reported
to be about to open separate negotiations
There is reason to believe that the Ger

anticipation of the early withdrawal o.
Austria and Turkey.

There is almost distracting va
riety in sweaters and sweater-coats to
choose from this season. And along
with them sleeveless satin and velvet
sports coats have entered the race for
consideration. and sleeveless coats Of
silk jersey. All of which goes to
prove that a sweater. or sports coat
or both-are indispensable in the
wardrobe of today and that one can
afford to think twice and then think
again before making final choice
among them.
Where not much in the way of
warmth Is really wanted of the sweat
er and II Is worn more for smart style
than anything else, the new short,
hand-knitted, slip-overs are apt to
win approval. They are made of
heavy zephgrs, in gay colors and knit
ed on large needles. Turquoise blue
and rose pink are favorites for them
and one sees an occasional jade green.
Nearly all of them have white knit
ed collars. 1t Is left to the individ-
ual to decide for or against sleeves
and II the sleeves win, then white
knitted cuffs are theirs by right.
These sweaters fit the figure some
what closely and are worn with white
kid belts. They are much shorter
than the sweater and sweater-coat
shown In the picture, extending only
eight to ten inches below the waist
fne.
The knitted sweater pictured is a
machine-made garment, with wide
sailor collar, deep cuffs and short
,irdle all knitted. but in coarser
nd heavier stitch than the sweater.

The following is an article which ap-
peared recently In RED Cross Clip
pings" and will be of special interest
to trained nurses who are considering
the matter of Offering their services to
the Red Cross:
Miss Jane A. Delano. director of
the bureau of nursing of the American
Red Cross. points out to nurses the un-
usual opportunities offered by the in
surance law, enacted for the protection
of our army and navy. The provisions
Of the insurance bill apply equally to
nurses assigned to duty as members of
the army and navy nurse corps, and
make it possible for the nurse to Sc
cure, at nominal rates, protection for
herself as well as for designated men,
bers of her family dependent upon
her.
"A great responsibility rests upon
the nurses of the country continues
Miss Delano. They are the only group
of women recognized as Il part of the
military establishment. While thou
sands and thousands of nurses will be
needed, the number is relatively small
compared with the number of women
In America who should stand back of
them and make possible the service for
which they are So greatly needed ut
this time.
"The nurses who share in the hard
ships, the dangers and the privations
incident to war should be looked upon
as the representatives of the woman
hood of America at the front, and
these women who stand ready to sac
rifice all, even their lives If necessary,
should receive the sympathy, the sup
port and the interest of the millions of
women whose husbands, brothers and
sons are fighting for the safety of the
country. Not only should the women
of the country encourage nurses who
have this blessed opportunity for serv-
Ice to volunteer promptly. but they
should make every effort possible to
protect the nurses holding themselves
ready for service and share with them
the responsibility and sacrifices neces-
sary.
"a special appeal Is made there
tore to the nurses Of America to vol
