WAR BRINGS IMPORTANT
 NEW INDUSTRY TO J. s.
America Has Become the Center of Silk Manufacturing, but Japan is
 Largest Producer.

Washington, May 25.-The United States has become the silk manufac- turing center of the world as result of the war. which has stimulated the manufacture of silk here and in the Far East at the expense of Europe
 A study of the silk industry, the first official inquiry of the kind, has just been completed by the Tarlff Commission.
 Japan continues to lead the world in the production of silk, while the United States. first among the nations in it's manufacture. does net produce a single pound of the material, france continues the chief European manu- facturer ol silk and the princlpai source of American imports, Japan ranking second
 The annual requirements Of the American silk industry are 2o,0oo tons of silk and silk waste, 10000 tons ot cotton and other yarns, and 1000 tons of metallic tin for weightlng Most striking of all the developments due to the war has been the expansion Of the spun-silk industry. The govern ment is requiring vast amounts or coarse silk cloth, made from silk noil, for making powder bags for the big guns.
 Many finer varieties of silk manu- facturers are not made in this country or else manufactured In very small

London, May 25.-tCorrcspondcncc Of the Associated Press). The ob- jcct of the war is to carry the spirit of President Wilson into the hearts and minds of the people of Germany declared Professor Sponsor Wilkinson of Oxford in an address on the "Idaa of This War; he said:
 "'Fhe German EmperGl' and Prcsi- dent Wilson are each of them at the head of a great nation, and each of them wields in that nation supreme authority.
 But the two men stand for two antagonistic systems. The German Emperor is never tired of proclaiming that he has received special com mission from God Almighty to cdu- cate and instruct the German people and other peoples, after his armies shall have crushed them
 "Mr. Wilson on the other hand, was chosen by the people of the United States to preside over their govern ment. He has no commission tG cdu- cate them. Their idea is to be allow cd to grow and to develop their pow CTS by doing their work. Here is Mr.. Wilson's conception of his missions:
 "I feel nothing so much as the in l tcnsity of the common man, l can pick out in every audience the men who are at ease in their fortunes. But there are in every cxowd other men who are listening to hear somebody speak the thing that is stirring in ther hearts and minds. It makes a mans heart ache to think that he cannot be sure he is doing it for them to wonder whether they are longing for something he does not understand. He pravs God that something will bring into his conscience what is in theirs, so that the whole nation may feel at least that there is no invisible force holding it back from it's goal, feel at last that there is hope and confidence, and that the road may be trodden as if they were brothers, shoulder to shoulder not asking each other anything about differences of class, not contestng for any selfish advance, but united in the common

Lovers of well-sweetened coffee who suffered curtailment of their usual quota during the recent sugar shortage, are casting about for sub- stitutes against the coming of an- other sweetless period. A more ex- tensivc use of maple sugar is sug- gested. This suggestion emanates no doubt from sources unacquainted with the limited output f maple sugar, the amount of labor connect ed with it's manufacture and the re- sultant high cost. Cheap maple sugar or syrup means adulteration.
 From four to SIX gallons of sap are required to make one pound of sugar. Three gallons of sap is the average daily yield per tree, or one pound of sugar in two days. The average lgar yield f 2 maple is

 'I have superintended the renova- ting of large casino, which will be used as a club by our troops during their leave period. Owing to the place not being occupied for ten years or more it was in deplorable state. l was compelled to clean it up from top to bottom, and l experienced great difficulty in securing help. but l managed after some delay to secure the help of dozen French women and then by great physical effort, such as waving of the arms, sliding around the floors, in fact going through all the warming up exercises known to man, my arms and hands playing the chief role. succeeded in conveying to them what l wanted, after that battle which tired me physically but left me in command of few French eXpressions.'
 In addition to experimenting jobs of paper hanging, painting and the installation of a motion picture pro- lection machine Bill had found time up to the time of writing to con struct two volley ball courts, hand. ball courts, dozen quoit grounds. basketball court and indocr baseball field
 The difference in the game Bill has been playing and the one in which he is now engaged, he expresses as follows:
 ''I have met number of our men here, and they are without exception a wonderful bunch of representative American youths. As they were the first had seen from home I choked up like a kid, sensation I never experienced in all the years I played ball, and I was up in the rinches a good many times, tOo."

That would make 24 play CTS, allowing three pitchers and two catchers for each club. That would be sufficient, as they would not be scheduled daily

 Reports from overseas that Y. NJ. C. A. secretaries are real tackles of all trades are verified by Bill. He says all kinds of jobs fall to the lot of the hut secretaries, and it is d for tunate man who has the all round ability to cope with the situations as they present themselves. Although specializing in physical training Bill has found the pace considerably fast CT than in his previous work

four pounds per year. This requires seven days work of collecting the sap and many hours of careful cooking before 1t is ready to be marketed. The result is maple sugar at 27 cents per pound in the shops of the maple districts.
 The bulk of maple sugar and syrup tlat finds its way onto our tables today is prepared in piosaic, hy- genie factories. The sap is poured into great pans having corrugated bottoms, partt.rned off to give a zig-zag course to the sap. These pans ar. designed with a view to rapid evaporation and economy of fuel.
 Canada is the stronghold of the maple sugar industry. It is esti- mated that 55,00O growers engage in this production and the annual output is placed at two million dol
