Moral and Religious Situation There
Declared to Be Excellent, and
Will Stay That Way.

Chaplains Francis B. Doherty and
Lyman Rollins have just returned
from France on a military mission to
the United States.
Chaplain Doherty is attached to gen
eral headquarters in France, being as
sociated With Bishop Charles II. Brent
and Chaplain Paul Dwight Moody (son
of the well-known evangelist OF that
name) in the general headquarters
chaplains' Office. The function of this
Office is. declares the religious public
ity committee, the direction and dis
tribution Of chaHlans' activities in
Frarce TO the end Of TIE attainment Of
the best and special Interests OF a..
concerned. under General PcrShinS.
THIS work carries with it considerable
travcl ard :S:ves an intimate knowledge
of the s;tuation FROM a religious ana
moral point cf view.
From this broad knowledge Chap
l&in Doherty says: Everywhere we
find the same situation, here the san,o
story: the condition and the spirit Of
the men are excellent" When leaving
France on his present mission the
chaplain asked General Pershins:
MAY Ne not tell our people in Amer
lea that the moral and religious situa-
ton here is eminently high and very
satisfactory?" The reply was: eyes,
and you may say furthermore, that it
is going to be kept up to that"
.Chaplains Doherty and Rollins spoke
enthusiastically Of the altogether adj
mirable spirit of fraternity existing
between those who are ministering to
our soldiers. The Catholic chaplafns,
they say, are not merely looking to
the good of the Catholic boys ror the
Protestant to that of the Protestant
boys; each is working for the best in
terest Of every man.

POLES FIGHT FOR FREEDOM
Legion of Soldiers of That Nation
aIity Are Cooperating With the
Allies in France.

Napoleon once said of the Polish
army, cit is the best" Almost since
the beginning of the war it has been
the ambition of the Poles again TO
distinguish themselves in the field, re-
gain their ancient prestige and win
from the world the admission that
their services entitle theiS nation to
autonomy and independence.
Russia for political reasons discouf-
aged the idea of s distinctive Polish
army beth under the rule of the car
and under Kerensky. Of course under
the bolsheviki the agitation ended. So
the Poles turned to France, which
bade them welcome and in an order
dated June 4, 1917, decreed the crea-
ton Of a distinct Polish legion.
Now the legion, which has grown so
fast that it is really an army, is about
to take its place on the battle line,
having been modified in a great camp
named Sille-le-Guillaume near LIE
Mans. The uniform is the same as
the French, with the exception of a
distinctive headdress, the "czapka." :"
The officers are Frenchmen and Poles
who have served in France.
It will be news to most Americans
that since the early days Of January
large detachments of well-drilled Poles
have been arriving in France from the
United States. They are the regi-
ments which Ignace Paderewski was
tireless and devoted in recruiting.

@ceIiuIon," New Wood Pulp Fiber.
There has. says the Board of Trade


Journal, been much discussion in the
German press during recent weeks con-
cerning a wood pulp fiber named "Cel-
lulon," for which large claims are
made as an efficient substitute for jute,
cotton and other fibers. 1t appears to
be certain that the fiber is not made
by spinning long strips of paper run
Off reels through water in the manner
which German paper textile substi-
tutes have made familiar. The ac-
counts agree in describing the proc
ess, or processes, as a direct manu-
faeture from wood pulp. The con-
sui general at Zurich. who has pre-
sented a report to the foreign Office,
states that the method employed op-
crates on the same general lines as
that used for artificial silk manufac-
ture-that is, by squeezing pulp un-
der high pressure through small holes
in plates.-Engineer.

Nails Turned Out in Quantities.

Formerly the metal for making nails
was cut into strips and then forged in.
to shape with hammers, and an expert
took about one minute and a half for
each nail. Today they are made of
steel and are lighter and stronger.
Strips are cut with steam shears and
fed into automatic nail machines. One
man, who tends three machines, drops
a nail every second.

Still the sentry did not get II. So
the Australian carefully explained to
me-so that Fritz could hear-that the
Germans had no blankets and were
using the flag 20 wrap their cold feet

This started a fight. Of course-the
German idea Of a fight, that Is. The
sentry. being a very brave man for q
German, blew his whistle very loudly,
and sentries came from all directions.
So we beat IL to the Australians bar

CHAPTER Xxi
A vlsIt From Mr.. Gerard.

Late that night we arrived at Dull
men. Westphalia. We were rousted
out Of the carriages. mustered on the
platform. counted. then drilled through
the streets. In spite of the lateness.
the streets were pretty well filled with
people, and they ~zig'zagged us through
all the streets they could. so that all
the people would have a chance to see
the crazy men. as they called us. Most
Of the people were women, and as soon
as they saw US coming. they began
singing the watch on the Rhine" or
some other German song. and II was
funny to see windows opening and fat
fraus. with night-caps on. sticking
their heads out Of the windows. They
would give US a quick ~once-over. and
pipe up like a boatswain: "Schwein-
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. am Rhein"
all kinds Of things and all mixed up.
So we gave them '.Tipperary" and
"Pack Up Your Troubles" and
showed them how to sing. Our guards
had no ear for music and tried to stop
us, but though they knocked several
men down. we did not stop until we
had finished the song. Then. after we
had admitted to each other that we
were not downhearted. we shut up.
We would have done so. anyway. be-
cause by this time we were on the out
skirts of the town. and we needed all
the breath we had. The road we were
on was Just q long sheet Of Ice. and

Germans were so easy on those who
tried to run away that / almost thought
they were encouraging them. One
chap was doing his ten days In the
guardhouse for the sixth time while
{ was there-that Is. he had Just about
completed his period of detention. Hs
claimed that the sixth time he had
really got across the border and was
arrested In a little town by the Dutch
authorities and turned owe to the Ger
Mans. That is against the law In
most countries. but he swore II was the

got away for the seventh time while

I had quite a tar with a sentry In

and at the same time my clothes were
given a boiling. which was good for
them.
Then I was forced into my wet
clothes and marched back 10 the bar

There were all the diseases you can
think OF In this camp. including black
cholera and typhus and somebody was
