THE NEW BOOKS
The Devils Cradle.

The new novel by Mrs. Alfred Sidg-
wick. The Devils Cradle" is thus de-
scribed by its publishers:
There is an old saying: The hand
that rocks the cradle rules the world
1t would seem that the Devil himself
rocked the cradle of the German race.
Shall his hand also rule the world
Here's a story that tells the truth.
II is. in effect. simple. straightfOr-
ward narrative. 1t reveals the Ger
man life and character with an as
toniShing intimacy Of detail. which
cOnvincas the reader even while it
appals him. The novel dwells on the
stark facts Of war as they have been
developed in the present conflict. The
writer presents nothing in the way of
argument. the account does not read
as a partisan presentment. Only here
Is told the truth concerning the in
dlyiduai German, concerning his race.
concerning his country. That truth is
not pleasant: it is indeed, revolving.
terrifying. II Is because of that truth
that today our nation is turning all
its energies toward war.
As one reads the absorbing and ac-
curate exposition of the German mind
and mood, he comes to realize with
new intensity the necessity for fight

THE UNSPOKEN CALL

An unspOken call comes from the
battlefelds of France This unspOken
call lodges in every American head.
It is spur on to greater effort or be
traitors to the memory of our sacred

Americans at home must not rest on
the laurels of our soldiers in France.
They must not. for the unspOken call
comes from the recent events in Eu-
rOpe-sent forth by the successes of
American arms on the Marne
1t is calling for every sacrifice and
eycrtion to aid the cause for which our
soldiers are dying.
Listen. hear the call? Increase pro-

this supports, strengthens and aids
our own in France, so spur on to

and crushing them like oornstalks,
bridging bitches, and bursting through

Popular Mechanics gives this eXplana-
ton: It seems Sir William Triton,
the inventor, desired to keep from the
world the need for the kind of tractor
he was building. In the shops it was
styled The Little Willie, and in shop
orders the hull was written water
carrier for the Mesopotamia" This
phrase was too much of a mouthful
for the daily food of the workmen, so
was shortened to the Tank"

THE TAN on ART

Not for a moment would we attempt
to evade a tax deemed necessary by
congress. We realize it is difficult
task to draw the line between essen
tials and nonessentiaIs. We do plead,
however, against CHASING among non
essentials anything that relates to Art
and Education.
As the French asserted at the begin
ming of their entrance into the war,
This is war against war" To de-
velOp a people to whom war is unnec-
essary we must educate them in a
love for justice and all things beauti-
full The cultivation of an aesthetic
judgment is the root Of all civiliza-
tion. We are retarding lasting peace
if we in any way retard the means 10
create this judgment which leads to
the formation of right ideals.

BEHIND BRITISH LINES IN
FRANCE, July q (by maiD Neither
fatigue duty nor working parties are
popular with the soldier but they serve
a great purpose because in modern
war mans greatest enemy is likely to
be his own imagination.
The only antidote to depression lies
in action and activity. 1t is this that
the working party supplies. and in
spite of the generally abusive terms
applied to it by the soldier, it is really
doing him a service.
1t is the British soldiers historic

he calls it. But his complainings
must not be taken TO indicate a state
of low morale.
Exactly the reverse, for it is an I'M
written law in the British army that
a man may complain only when things
are going well. In danger and adver-
sity there is no complaining, only that
logged determination which makes
the British soldier such a formidable
opponent.

SMALL COMFORT FOR sLACKERs
Those in Mexico Beg or Work at Most
Menial Jobs.


JUAREZ, Mex, Aug. 1O.-Deserters,
Graft evaders and prO-Germans who
seek refuge in Mexico find little well
cCme or comfort here. They sit around
the old passenger depot waiting for a
chance to steal a ride south, walk up
and down the main street begging
money for meals, or work at the most
menial jobs.
Recently three draft evaders who
appeared on the streets here were
true types of the many who have come
to Mexico since the United States en-
tered the war. One was a German
boy of 20 who had fed from Germany
to escape army service, had lived with
an uncle in Chicago and finally crossed
the border to prevent being interned.
A second was an Italian shoe factory
worker from Boston who had failed 10
register and had fed. A third was an
American Of the tramp type who was
demented from lack of food and wOr-
ry. All were dirty. unshaven and des-
