R. c. HELPS SOLDIERS
TO SHOP IN FRANCE:

The American soldier in France IS
a good fighting man. But when he
faces the French hopkeeper-ithat
quick-tongued, sharp-eyed little
woman who keeps the till as full as
she can while her husband fights, he
is glad enough to have an American
woman beside him.
So the Red Cross women at the
line-of-communication canteens have
a new job, They take the boys out
shopping.
There are a string of towns along
the railroads where it is common
sight now to see hundreds OF Ameri-
can soldiers hurriyng about the
streets, using their precious quarter
hour or SO, while they wait for con-
nections in laying in stock of to-
bacco or food or sweets. And head
ing a group of a score here and a
dozen there you will see an Ameri-
can woman shepherding the whole
crowd like new kind of non-com,;
marching them into the shops, trans
lating their wants into shop-keepers
French, counting their change for
them and generally serving as a
guide, interpreter, and guardian.
There is usually a troop OF young
sters bringing up the rear, chatter
ing and gi2giing and scrambling nov
and then for the coppers that The
soldiers throw among them.
"h's Just like going shopping with
my sister at home" said one CRATE

That gas masks hold high place
among the war souvenirs Of the men
back from No Mans Land is well ex-
planned by the photographs made
when Major A. ". Owen found his
own old gas masks in the hands Of

davs Of Ku Klux clans were recal lied

Major Owen, officer commanding
western division of the Britisa-Can-
adian Recruiting Mission, was asked
by T j. Wall of the Canadian Pacific
Railway, to explain the intricacies
OF his two souvenir masks from
France" To interest some recruits,
Major Owen undertook TO do 50 and
discovered two old comrades OF
trench raids-his own masks. Now
he knows how he looked TO the Ger

OF the recruits is shown in the zest

Macdonald Says Republicans
Set Precedent for Wilson Plea
sy syec,ol Correspondent.

sv Special CORRESPONDENT
TRENTON. Oct 31:-Presldeht
Wilson had ample Republican prece-
dent when he appealed to the country
for a Democratic congress, oeelaIeu
Democratic State Chairman Charles
f. Mcdonald in @ statement Issued
here today. He calls attention 70
what President Mckinley said in kSgS
when he declared: This is no time
for divided councils" Roosevelt and
former President Harrison, Senator
Lodge and others all made fervid ap-
peals to the country to return q con-
gress at the close of the Spanlsn-
American War In harmony with
President Mckinley. II contend that
what a Republican President may do
in this respect may likewise be done
in full propriety by a Democratic
President" said the state chairman.
1.-THE efforts of the Republican
leaders to assume q Mortified attitude
at President Wilson's appeal to thu
voters of the nation is ~laughable in
view of the uncontrovertible fact that
President Wilson, in sending out such
an appeal for the election of a DEM
~ocratic congress was merely following
Republican ~precedents," said the
statement of Mcdonald. History
proves this. President Mckinley in
1898, pleading for a sympathetic con-
gress, said: This is no time for d.
vided councils He was supported in
this appeal by Theodore Roosevelt,
then a candidate for governor of New
York; by ex-President Harrison, Sem
ator Lodge and other Republican
leaders. Roosevelt In 1906 during his
second presidenti>i term declared
that a change in the control of con-
gress would lead to purposeless con-
fusion. He asked the nation to give
him a congress dominated by his own
political party. In 1908 Mr.. Roose-
welt asked for a Republican congress
for President Taft, declaring that an
opposing congress would be certain
ito thwart and battle the President
on every possible occasion" Presi-
dent Taft in 1910 asked for a con
gress of his own party upon the plea
that such q congress would strength
en- confidence In his administration.
Such are the Republican ~precedents,
and it is very difficult to see wherein
the Republican leaders are justified
in criticising President Wilson In ref
erence to a course of action that was
followed by Presidents Mckinley,
Roosevelt and Taft. President WILL
son, furthermore, has not impugned
the patriotism or loyalty Of the men
of any party, but he has asked for
expression of approval of his lead
ership as was similarly done by his
distinguished Republican predecess@
ors," concluded Mr.. Mcdonald.
