his commission as ambassador accredited
him to Germany a nation that had no
existence. He should have been accred-

will recall his discussion of the title of
the emperor when the empire was pro-

In the title finally adopted concession
was made to the local pride of the rulers
OF the smaller German states, who felt
they would be less subordinated If the
head of the state We're regarded as Ger
man emperor than If he We're proclaimed
emperor OF their country.
Apparently their expectations did not
work out. The German emperor mas
welded al! the authority an emperor OF
Germany COULD possibly have assumed.
For this authority he has claimed divine
approval. The war is likely to do some
revising in the substance. If not in the
name of things. The allies are not par

HERE'S "REClPE" FOR
TRENCH CAP KNITTING

Following a recent request sent out
from Red Cross headquarters for more
trench caps instead Of sweaters and
muffiers, a large number OF Sioux City
women nave besieged the central work
rooms with questions as to the
trench caps are and how they are
made
The trench caps are knitted caps
which are worn under the steel helmets
by the soldiers in the trenches. Be
cause OF their warmth and comfort
they are at present needed far more
h sweaters and mufiers as there
seems to be a fairly large supply of
these latter articles.
For the benefit of all knitters who
desire to work on trench caps the fol-
lowing recipe" is given which the
women are asked to cut ont and paste
in their bonnetS:
