Old WORK OF h.6H ORDER
Designs Wrought by Ancient Peruvian
Dyers Have Been Given Much
Praise by Experts.

The anclents OF Peru, by a curious
coincidence-for there could not pos
sibly have been any intercourse with
their contemporaries in India and
Egypt-seem to have used much the
same kind OF processes In printing
their designs upon the fabrics they
manufactured. Both Herodotus and
Pliny, among early historians, have
told us about the cloths OF vegetable
fiber made by the ancients; but in all
likelihood the fabrics of the Peruvians
were of even more remote date. In
some respects the methods Of today
bear strong resemblance to the older
practice. The chief difference con-
sists In the patterns now being en-
graved upon copper rollers and several
colors being printed at one time. Just
as today the coloring matter OF dyes
is not affixed by merely printing 1t on
the material, but Is secured by means
of substance known as mordant, so
did the Peruvians make use of prop
erty which caused the dye to adhere
and to withstand a test of thousands
of years wear and tear. Experts have
declared that in the direction of tech
nical and artistic value the designs In
question have no equal.

Parls.-Back In 1914, when there
was no war, nor whispers of it, In a
certain sunny village in France, lived
Marie Rose, nine years old. Beside
Marie Rose, there were her father,
mother and brother, and happy fam
lily ii was, indeed.
Then, on one dark day in August,
war came, and its smoke of horror
and misery and death seeped into Ma
RE Roses village. The st. Mihiel sal

Rose quite hemmed in.
The Germans took her brother away
with hundreds of other young men, on
fine morning, and Marie Rose babe
him farewell. She has never seen him
since. Marie Roses father worked on
his little farm, and her mother kept the
house in the village and cooked for the
German officers, who took the family's
bedrooms with polite suavity.
Marie Studied German.
OF course, there were no schools; so
Marie Rose studied German, which the
bored young officers volunteered to
teach her. She was told that the Ger
man language was very pretty and that
before many years all the world would
speak German.

quently told her of the great day that
was coming when the Germans would
be driven back and the village would
again be part of their beloved
France. A German lieutenant, who
overheard, laughed seornfully.
"There will be no more French
army to. come" he said, gayly; "all
will be Germans, and of Germany"
Marie Rose ran TO her mother and
repeated what the German officer had
said. Don't you believe it," said Ma

CROWDER'S OPINION

Provost Marshal General Crowder
is of the opinion that work of the
American Red Cross will be increased
rather than diminished by the arriv-
al of peace. Discussing the Christ
mas roll call of the Red Cross recent

regarding the necessity of the or
ganizing continuing it's work abroad
and at home.
'"The need for the Red Cross does
not terminate with the cessation of
Observation-Disclosures are its useful
ness and its scope increased. With
the war at an end, the Red Cross must
turn it's hand to the rehabilitation of
devastated Europe not only in the
theatres of operation but in all those
fields just delivered from hostile oc-
cupation and among all those people
who more than four years have felt
the heel of German oppression. To
embarrass its activities at this time
is to add misery to suffering.

The Red Cross has for years been
associated with hospitals, doctols, SOL
diers, sailors, battles, disasters but it
is only within the last few months
that those who do not come under
any Of these classes have come to real
ize the importance of the assistance
rendered by the Red Cross.
Soldiers and sailors must be encour-
aged to carry on Their morale
must be upheld. The sailor or soldier
who is worrying about the welfare of
his family is not able to put his mind
on the business before him. For this
reason the Home Service Section of
the American Red Cross has been or
ganized, and to the folks at home 1t
means neighborliness, counsel and aid
the nations assurance to the enlist
ed man that his family shall suffer for
no essential thing that is within its
power to give.
In practically every large city Of the
United States there Is already class
for training the workers of the Home
Service section, so that they may be
able to efficiently deal with the very
real problems that are before them.
1t is not the policy of the section to
force upon families the aid of the Red
Cross nor to burden them with inter-
ference No family should be ap-'
preached unless some member of the
family or some person capable of
speaking for them has asked for the
service. Because it is the desire of
the Committee on Civilian Relief, I'M
der whose direction this work comes,
to keep the service Of the bureau
strictly confidential, the wearing Of
any uniform by the Home Service
workers has been discouraged. They
call simply as friends and try to call
Immediately when requested.
In no instance Is visitor permit
ted to pry into the secrets Of the fam
lily. Help is always ready, and the call
usually comes from the man in the
service himself Through the work
ers in the camp or at the front he
learns that his family may be assisted,

encouragingly he is quite apt to talk
over with the Red Cross man or wo-
man the affairs of his home when he

informants, for they know through the

ARMY DECENTRALIZATION
May Consume A Number of Years

Even before the armistice agree
ment was signed by Germany, govern
ment officials, realizing that peace
was near, began preparations for the
rehabilitation of Americas big war
forces and, now that permanent peace
is assured, the work of returning to
civil no longer needed in our army
and navy is being pushed forward as
rapidly as possible.
Aside from our overseas force OF
more than two million men the trans
portation problem incident to the dis
bandment of the nearly two million
soldiers under training here is
enormous, and the taking
involved in the returning to this
country of our big army now in Eur
one is far more difficult than any
similar undertaking in the worlds
history.
In this connection it is interesting
to note the fact that, after the Civil
War, it took seventeen months to
disband the Northern Army, although
that army smaller than the one now
under training in this country. Ow-
ing, however, to greatly improved
transportation facilities it is proba-
BILE that the rehabilitation of the pre-
sent forces in America will be accom-
plished in less than half the time
required for similar purposes at the
end of the Civil War.
Rehabilitation after the Franco
Prussion War, even though no over
sea transportation was necessary
consumed two years and four months.
The disarmament of the Turko-
Russian armies took about eighteen
months.
AT the end of the Russo-Japanese
War, Russia consumed thirteen
months and Japan eight months in
] getting their armies back home.
Although the Spanish-American
War required the overseas transpor-
tation of only comparatively small
number of troops, sixteen months
elapsed after the close of the war
before the last American forces were
demobilized.
The work of bringing Eagland's
troops back home after the Boer war
extended over period of ten months.
The above facts would seem to in
dictate that, even under the most fav-
orable conditions since the Amer
lean army in Europe is many times
greater than any other fighting force
ever before sent overseas-the return
of our European army will necessari-
ly take ct least a year. However, in
view of the fact that it will probably
be necessary for America, as well as
England, France and possibly other
countries to maintain very consid-
cradle forces in or on the borders of
Germany for considerable period
in order to see to it that the terms
of peace are complied with, it seems
quite possible that large number
of American soldiers may remain in
Europe and thus delay complete demo-
Utilization of the expeditionary force
for a number of years possibly a
dozen or more.

Frightened and pitiful, they walk apart

Hand clasped in hand, they hear weird echoes start
From ruined homes Fear dunbs each small, child heart
No tears rain down like dew to ease their woe
Horror has dried the wells from which they spran0
Like crusaders of the long ago.
Their phantom banners in the breezes blow.
# one should call out Follow they would run,
Crime Of the highway on their tiny feet,
Needless alike of dust and blazing sun,
Forget, as dreams, the horrors that were done.
None calls; weary they rest within the shade,
The ruined church, where once they learned to pray
Long years before the had come, and laid
Their homes in ruins, made their hearts afraid
Before the Holy Mother low they bow,
Perhaps she hears and soon will bring them aid.
It must be she whose voice is calling now,
For see the cross is shining on her brow!

Red Cross worker, not from Heaven they know
Yet Mary heard and sent her here it seems
To lead them home to shelter and to dreams.

tween the fortress of Metz and his
troops in northern France and Bel
gium is by the success of the Am
ericaa Army no longer open to him"
In such words the American COM
munique published last Friday morn
ing announced the cutting in two Of
the German army on the western
front, and accomplishment Of one
of the principal detectives Of the
great attack at the enemy's vitals
which the American Army launched
on September 26 between the Meuse
and the Argonne, the post of honor
in the last grand offensive of the
war.
Another prime objective of the Am
erican attack the greatest battle in
American history, both in intensity
and number of troops engaged was
the penetration of the German posi-
tons in the Meuse-Argonne region
to depth sufficient to bring about
the capture of the enemy forces be-
tween the Argonne and the sea, or, by
the threat of such capture, to compel
the withdrawal of the enemy holding
that portion of the line from France
and the greater part Of Belgium.
A third important objective Of the
American attack was to wrest from
the Boche the precious Briey basin,
the source of three fourths Of Eur
ope's iron supply.
Despite the desperate efforts of
the enemy to keep us from cutting
his army in two, we cut it in two.
With equal determination, we were
driving the enemy's divisions before
us in the sure achievement of all our
detectives when the finger Of Time
on Monday morning pointed to II
o'clock and fighting ceased all along
the front under the terms of the arm
istice dictated to and accepted by
the enemy.
But the hand of Time can never
erase from the pages of history what
American divisions did at the post
of honor in the world war of 1914
1918 from September 26 to November
II, 1918. The story of American val
or along the Meuse and in the Ar
gonne will shine radiantly through
the ages. 1t will glow in the print
ed word as long as men read of the
deeds of their fathers, as long as
the passion of liberty swells in the
bosom of mankind. And the glory of
that story will be none the less re-
fulgent because of the knowledge
that only a year before they went
forth with boyish smiles and boyish
confidence to face the flower of the
German host massed to hurl them
back and under orders to hold their
positions at all costs, by far the
personal of the American divisions
had been childishly ignorant of the
A. B. c. of war.
Green troops we were sneeringly
called by the enemy. Green troops
our Allies could rightly have CLASH
fled us, and probably did, before those
terrible nightmare days of the war
last spring and summer. And green
troops we knew ourselves to be, COM
pared with poilu and Tommy, Jock,
Aussie and Canuck. But, bringing
youth to the war-worn battle hosts,
we believed in our youth. We be-
ieved in the holiness of our cause
