Fair EXCHANGE.

United States troops in France have
found two short cuts to the friendship
of the French Poilu when he hap
pens to be their neiehbor In camp or
in the line. They are flour and tobacco.
The United States soldiers, it should
be explained, are supplied with excel
lent white flour, from which they make
palatable bread almost as good as
cake. Yet, curiously enough, they pre-
fer the darker and very much coarser
article served out to the Frenchmen,
to which the latter apply the de-
scriptive name of bran ball" There
is, 1t need hardly be said, no difficulty
in arranging an exchange. AS to to-
bacco, the Yanks enjoy an unfailing
supply Of it-"United States tobacco
that smells of honey" as a French
soldier puts it-but he is willing to
swap any amount of it with his French
comrades.

Two large shipbuilding plants are be-
ing erected in southern Chile. They
will be ready for operation In Septem-
Der and the building of wooden ves-
sells will begin Immediately. The first
vessel, of 5000 tons. will be launched
In March, 1919, according to the sched-
ule, and another vessel of the same
size will leave the ways shortly after
ward.
The new shipyards are being con-
structed at Lianao. The wood to be
used in shipbuilding is native timber
Chilean oak, spruce and other woods.
The machinery for the new vessels
win be bought in the United States II

Women Are Huskjes,

hands knows no home. That is why,
when the police commissioner appoint
ed six women cops he gave them ev-
erything that man cop possesses but
n club. The new women cops will
have the same shield the regular po-
licemen wear, and each will be dressed
In suitable" blue service uniform,
carry gun and handouts and be sup
piled with summons books Just as all
cops are, but they will not be allowed
to swing club. "These women are
much needed in New York at the pres
ent time" explained the commission
er, "and, in fact, consider their serv-
Ices so necessary that l have asked
the board of estimate to give me an
appropriation for 20 more policewom-
en-" The women cops will specialize
among their own sex, especially as
guard against the temptations that
young women come in contact with in
the city. But at the same time, If any
guy gets fresh with them, they will get
aplenty, for all the women are hus-
kies and know their business.-New
