est the public in reading French--F'rench
newspapers, and especially French books.
She has collected statistics which show that
there are only $50 French books out Of
every 10000 in the libraries of the United
States. In many libraries there are no
French books at all. And this is in spite
of the fact that in the production of liter
ature France has always stood in the very
first rank.
Here is mission which deserves to sue
ceed. We have every motive for trying to
get closer to the French people, so that our
commercial relations with them may be cx-
tended and we may profit by their litera-
turc, their culture and their singular
capacity in all forms of artistic expression.
Let us give French that preference in our
schools which we have allowed German to
enjoy. If we do not do this, we shall fail
to profit by one Of the great opportunities
created by the war.

from a serial story of the same name
written by Jaques Futrelle, and pub

Despite its rather suggestive title.
there is nothing salacious about my

indirectly with the founding of "The
Order of The Carter" England's most
distinctive badge of chivalry. History
tells of an occasion in 1884, when King
Edward III was dancing with the beau
tiful Countess of Salisbury. Her grace
dropped her garter. The King re-
turned 1t, and when one of his cour-
tiers smiled rather audibly, His Mai.

In a recent issue of the London
Daily Chronicle, its representative sent
to Ireland to observe political and
economic conditions there, outlined in
detail what the Irish farmers had done
for England during the war. He
pointed out that the grain, flour, pc.
tatoes, cattle, bacon, butter, poultry
and eggs sent from ireland to the
markets Of London, Manchester, Liv-
erpool, Bristol, and elsewhere, were
virtually the mainstay of the English
people, and that without them a most
serious shortage of food, especially
food for the poor, would have result
ed. He emphasized the fact that the
Irish farmer had done much more
than the farmer in England to produce
and conserve food supply, although
his efforts were badly handicapped by
the shortage of farm labor in Ireland.
Last year, in response to the ap-
peals of the Department of Agricul-
ture and Technical Education in Ire
land and of the Irish Local Govern
ment Board, over $4,000 acres were
added to the tillage area of Ireland,
and this year a much vaster extent
will be under cultivation. To till this
land and thus keep up the urgently
needed supply Of food to the English
markets, an army of farm laborers is
needed. For generations the women
in rural Ireland have done their work
upon the farm, so that What is re-
garded in England and America as
the very essence Of patriotism is
looked upon in Ireland as an ordinary
routine and q simple matter of course.
But even with these women in
added numbers, a pressing need of
n-power exists. Farm machinery is
the exception rather than the rule in
Ireland, so that manual labor is an in
dispensable necessity. But the man.
power on Irish farms Is now lower
than at any time in many generations,
and the population Of Ireland is the
lowest in its HISTORIAN eloquent
commentary on English misrule.
