few who escaped with life wounds
were annihilated. These few remain
ing heroes are strangely very much
the same as other men, but for their
number of wound stripes and their
medals of honor and their funny little
hats. One has hard time realizing
when he looks at one of these little
men that he is facing a genuine hero.

at the further end my attention was
drawn by the presence of some women
who were apparently in prayer before
some kind of a shrine. There were
Pickering candles on each side of an
other receptacle in the wall where
were enclosed some rich tapestries
and large crucitix. The women
would come in, halt before these burn
ing candles and remain standing there
for some time. 1t was evident that
they were in prayer for after a brief
period they would turn, always with
a mournful look and pass on out the
exit. The pathetic part of this was
that nearly everyone of the women
were in heavy mourning. Some were
very young who no doubt were mourn

Rioting and Voting

TO the Editor Of the Epening Public Led1er:
Sir-It is more than certain that the mob
violence at Strawberry Mansion, extending
over a district reaching to Twenty-seventh
and York streets and resulting in damage
to property, the inhiction of bodily injury.
etc. will not lead any well-balanced person
to argue that men should never have been
permitted to enjoy the vote. Nor will any
one be likely to recommend depriving even
the rioters themselves OF the vote In a few
days the whole affair will be hushed up
Why Is 1t. therefore. that the action of a
handful of women at Washington-action
attended neither with damage to property
nor assault and battery. etc.-should lead
your editor to fear that some votes for the
suffrage amendment will be lost in the United
States Senate?
Are the methods of reasoning used by men
like Senator Thomas fmsy that small.
tame affair like that Of last week can cause
them to withhold their vote from a measure
affecting the women of the entire nation? It
looks very much as If Senator Thomas has
not been a real friend of suffrage for
twenty-five years. Real friends do not reason
in this way. They are not SO emotional (D
as to permit the misdeeds of a few to blind
them to the rights Of the many. They are
governed by eternal principles always and
not by human perversities. AS for Senator
Reed. it appears that he rejoices greatly
over the bad behavior of the forty-eight He

Airplane View of a Battle

Major w. A. Bishop. king of all armen,
with seventy-two confirmed machines to his
credit was In the air during the battle of
Arras and in his book, Winged Warfare"
he describes the extraordinary effect of
artillery fire when Viewed from a height
The flames from the guns gave the
impression of long ribbon of incandescent
light. and the air seemed literally filled with
shells But the spectacle Of the advancing
infantry was the most remarkable:
"The waves of attacking infantry as they
came out of their trenches and trudged for
ward behind the curtain of shells laid down
by the artillery were an amazing sight. The
men seemed to wander across No Mans
Land and into the enemy trenches II
the battle was a great bore to them. From
the air 1t looked as though they did not
realize that they were at war and were
taking 1t all entirely too quietly. That Is the
way with clock-work warfare These troops
had been drilled to move forward at a given
pace. They had been timed over and over
again in marching a certain distance. and
from this timing the creeping or rolling
barrage, which moved in front of them, had
been mathematically worked out. And the
battle, so calmly entered into, was one OF
the tensest. bitterest of the entire world
war"

EXPERIMENTATION IN AUGUST

ing and we would not have opened it save
for the fact that relief from servitude is
demonstrable on patriotic grounds.
Over in Germany a man named Simon
inscribed on his classification card a false
measurement of his neclband. The fact
that this offense landed him in Jail is
sufficient evidence of the collars sanctity
in Hunland. Doubtless Herr Simon, whose
name, appropriately enough, is August
merely wished to wear his bonds size
larger. Teuton tyranny squelched him
thereby registering it's approval of one of
male humanity's most deplorable shackles
1t is obvious then that collars, like every
