In the Revolutionary War the Hats
Worn by the Soldiers Were of
Many Designs.

I'm our past wars there were no such
things as flying shrapnel, or airplanc3
that dropped darts of steel on the
soldiers below so American soldiers
wore ordinary army hats. But modern
warfare has made it necessary that
soldiers wear helmets of steel
In the Revolutionary war our sol
dicrs' hats were Of many designs one
Of the most common was the cooked
hat, made of black or brown felt and
turned up on the sides TO form three
corners. The Virginia riiemen wore
brown felt hats with one side turned
up, and the Maryland rihemen brown
furtrimmed hats.
The hat generally worn by the New
York rangers or rifemen was of black
felt, cap shaped turned up in front
with a plume Sometimes words were
marked on the front such. as "Liber-.
ty." death" etc. Soldiers in the
cavalry or Eight horse" OF philadel-
phia wore sportsmen's caps, ornament
ed with bucks tails.
Hats worn by the First Governors
foe guards Of Connecticut were close
ly modelled after those Of the British
Grenadiers. They were Of black fur.

Singing Tree Of Queensland Is Free
quenty Fatal to Unobservna or
Too Careless Hunter

Although the tropical shrubs Of
Queensland are luxuriant and beauti-
ful, they are not without their dan
gerous drawbacks for there is one
plant among them that is deadly in its
effects. This is the stinglng tree. If
a certain portion of the Travellers body
is burned by the stinging tree death
will follow.
Sometimes while shooting turkeys
in the scrubs have entirely forgotten

close proximity by its SMELL" said a
visitor to Queensland II was only
once stung and that very lightly. It's
effects are curious; it leaves no mark.
but the pain is maddening, and for
months afterward the part when
touched is tender, in rainy weather or
when il gets wet in washing.
81 have seen a man who treats ordi-
nary pain lightly roll on the ground in
agony after being stung, and | have
known a horse so completely mad,
after getting into grove of these
trees, that he rushed open-mouthed at
everyone who approached him and had
to be shot Dogs, when stung, will
rush about whining piteousIy biting
pieces from the affected part. The
small singing trees, a few inches high,
are as dangerous rs any, being hard
TO see and seriously impeding ones

The singing tree emits n peculiar
and disagreeable smell. 1t is best
knonn, however by its leaf, which is
nearly round and has a point at the
top.

have been revealed that were hardly
suspected in the days when study
was only one--and it sometimes
seemed not the chief-of collegiate
activities, and IL is now almost uni
yersalIy realized that military driIl
gives qualities that are quite as use
ful in peace 81 in war.
AS compared with athletics" mil
itary drill is obviously superior in
building up the physique Of the
whole student body, instead of limit
ing the benefits TO those who need
them least, and military training
has the great merit of being free
from tho demoralizing influence that
gate money always e&erts on
games and those who play them. Al
most certainly it would be worth
while TO carry out, at least to the
end Of the present collegiate year,
the sort Of discipline and instruc-
ton the lack of which was so Sc
verely felt when the United States
entered the great European con-
flict.
Ali the seventies Of the training
camps need not be maintained, as
a national exigency no longer exists.
But to drop the essential parts Of
the new system would be to waste
the time and money already devoted
to it, and 1t would be, too, return
to system with many and great i'm
perfections that are admitted even
by those who hitherto had seemingly
accepted them as an unavoidable
part of education. They are not un-
avoidabIe when the drill sergeant
becomes a member of the faculty.

Such moderation in territorial de-

But perhaps there is a shade Of
prudence IN this modesty, Alsace
and Lorraine have been a shining
fexample of the difficulty in absorb

absorbed, and Holstein is mostly set

THE ToWNLEY WAY.

OF course, it is none Of our darned
business how Townley runs his
league, but. nevertheless, we cannot
help but marvel at the wrong end to-
way in which his convention put
over his election to the presidency
OF the national league. Ordinarily in
elections the election system is
worked out first and then everyone
Is given o chance to run for the fat
offices. but in this case the president
is elected first by a selected few
and sometime later the membership
will be given a chance to express
their delight It will now be in or
der for the army of organizers to
grease the skids for the triumphal
crowning of the great apostle. But
in the meantime the League papers
will report the great joy universal
among the members over the Demo-
cratlzation of the League. Just
think Of a. national election being
held on that system!

since by that attack OF the American
armies the Sedan Megieres railway,
the main artery OF the German sup
ply system, was cut. The entire
available strength of the American
army In France, 28 divisions, were in
line In the second week of October,
he says, making yard by. yard prog

OF the drive the strategic conception

tered the outskirts of Sedan to be
Joined there the next day by the

"The meeting of French and
American troops on this historic
spot" Mr.. Baker says, "signalized
the defeat of the German arms. a
defeat as decisive and humiliating as
that forced upon France ~ years be-
fore at the same spot. If there had
been questions before as to the ac-
ceptance of the arnistice terms, the
allied advance eliminating in this

the matter"
In sketching the building up of the
war army, Mr.. Baker selects a few
striking figures as illustrations of
what each step meant and what has
been accomplished. On the day the
armistice was signed, he declares
more than % per cent Of the entire
male population of the country be-
tween the ages of Is and 81 was in
the military service, the army having
reached a. total of 3,664,000 men,
more than 100000 of whom were in
Europe, as compared with strength
of 1864 in March 1917 a week be-
fore war was declared.
To illustrate the speed of this ex-
pansion, the report cites the fact
that the British army in France
had reached it's high mark in
the summer of 1917, three years after
the beginning Of the war, and that
figure was Slightly more than o.
100000 men," 1t took 10 months for
the United States to reach the same
strength there, but Mr.. Baker points
out that during those years of bat
tie, British manpower had been
heavily called upon to replace cas-
ualties, while for many months the
flow of American troops all went to
augment the force being assembled.

ON A LONG ROAD.

y while there has as yet been moth
6 fng that has come out of Official
life in Germany to show regret or
shame for the Yillianies that coun-
Try has committed, once in awhile
a gifmmer OF sanity appears. which
leads to the hope that eventually the
Huns will come to see themselves
las others see them. There are signs
Ifaat that part of the German people
(which was comparatively sane be-
fore the war, and which offers the
sEeest hope for Germany in the future,
rs beginning to see light. The Ger
sEEnan modeTates, who are the middle
stclass Democrats, are on their way
hack to state of mind that can be
taived with Zach day they pitch
ktheir tent q days march nearer the
fVtewpoant OF enlightened ciyiliza-
kion.
But the road ahead Of them is
1ong one for when the Germans de-
Afviated from the pathway Of respec-
liability they travelled fast and far.
Il The most hopeful thing in the
kcentral empire seems to be the es-
Establishment of the Democratic
party, which aims TO support the re-
public and furnish a rallying point
flor the middle classes and keep them
FROM the clutches of the Bolsheviki.
TT will advocate the cutting up Of
dhe large estates for distribution
8among the soldiers, but unlike the
Isussian reds. expects to pay the
Owners.
1. This 10 q fair start, but better yet
sss the decision to bar from leader
Iship men who have been known az
tBupporterS OF the military party, or
Iof the unrestricted submarine war
Some of the German newspapers
Ihave also seen the light. although it
19s somewhat shaded as yet, and
4swhile advocating moderation and
Reconsideration for the rights of ALL
IgtilI betray the great gulf lying be-
tween even the saner Germans and
the rest of mankind.
= For instance The F'rankfurter
SEeltunE says "Hen you take your
grandchildren on your knees and tell
s1hem of the last four years. then you
sliall not be ashamed" And doubtless
they will not: but If Germany is to
be a nation that can be lived with
and trusted we must expect the
grandchildren WILL be ashamed.
Until the idea penetratcs the
German consciousness that the uni
versal loathing for things German
is due quite as much to the means
by which her army and navy made
war as to the reasons why her gov
eminent made war, Germany can
hardly be readmitted into the fell
flowglrfp OF civilization.
