SECRETARY RAkER,s vIslr.

There are reasons for believing that much good will result from the pres snt visit of Secretary Baker to France. He has gone to that country to confer with General Pershing, to see condi- tions as they exist along the battle front and to get better understand ing of the needs and situation. Such it must be realized is highly important to the one who is expected to direct the affairs of this important depart ment and particularly so when it is realized that the broad Atlantic in- tervenes between Washington and the point where the war is going on. By this visit he will be able to see and better understand the problems which the American forces are en- countering there. He will thus be better able to understand the steps which are being taken to meet them and why they are being taken. Il means the bringing of the head of the war department and the head of the lighting forces in the field into closer understanding than would be possibl< through cable communications oi .tt-SNeh tiio SAPiahoeionS ol ftpTeSen- tatires. The experience will therefor, be of the greatest value to the countr, in the; conduct of the war
 Representatives of the United State: legislature have been informing them selves upon many of these same thing which the secretary of the war vii now be able to get first handed. Thi military mission is of course one q peril but 1t is likewise one of neces sfty. It should make him a bette war secretary.

WHAT THEY DID NOT WEAR

ly got away with them with quite an air in the bargain, and her face was a normal pink and white instead of the usual feminine magenta of those days.
 And I heard of one girl who really
 took to woolen stockings, but was
 never able to run her down. In the
 first place everybody wears her shoes
 so tight over her thin silk hosiery that if she put on wool she'd have to buy new shoes and bigger ones--and you
 can't get a woman to ask for 8 larger size of shoe. The only way they can be forced on her is to chloroform her first.
 "One stern father nabbed his high l school daughter as she started out of the parental front door one blizzardy , morn with demand that she put on her rubbers. After she had gone 1 through the process of wailing that none of the other girls did it, that her shoes were horribly thick and warm and that, anyhow, she didn't own any rubbers, she was obliged to accept a dollar, with stern instructions to buy a pair at the shoe store eae block away as she proceeded to school.
 "'The insane idea said her ezas- perated parent, that you are going to l wade through drifts all day and sit with wet feetl l won't have it. Get I those rtibbeFs--understan Yes, papa Inournfully said daughter. She came homa that night with the rub bers on. We'll said her parent. l guess you found out I was right. I'll bet your feet were surprised and warm and dry far once. By the way, you got them this nerning?' Daughter looked innocently surprised. Oh, my
 no!' she told him. I didn't have tims
 this morning. I met one of the girl:
 and she talked so long that couldn'
 stop or I'd have been late. got then
 just now as I came hoIne.' "She had worn those rubbers oni
 block and her father faded away vitl
 a dull groan. And she hasn't wer1 : them since
 "Of course. it is possible for ; , strong, husky male parent to put rub , hers on his child's feet by main force l but that won't stop her from earefull losing them at the first crossing Q l slowing them behind a eonveHien ' water spout. Why, the druggist tol me, that the number of high schoe girls who limped in on their frozel
 feet begging for help was somethin l enormous
 5 "H'm!" said the patient listener ! Just what were you doing in tn f drug store yourself?"
 2 The girl who likes to talk blusheS l What nuisance you are!" she sai r irritabiy. If you. must know. I wen ? in to see if he knew of any applicatio e that would stop ones feet from hun e ing. You know, simply can't get an l. rubbers that fit nicely over these lo7 ', heels I wear. Now what are 70 : laughing at?"-Chicago News.
