BANK PROTECTION
 WORK COMMENCES

The work of replacing the piling taken out by the ice during last breakup was taken in hand some time ago, the new American ditcher being used for this purpose. Com mencing from the foot of the trestle approach to the docks all of the lost piles were replaced and some put in to strengthen the trestle and front of the dock.
 The American ditcher was then sent on out to the line and the crew started in to fix up piledriver No. for continuation of the work along the waterfront and up to the mill near rhe mission. The hammer of the big piledriver was lost at Lost Slough and so the hammer of pile driver No, i, also known as the track driver, was requisitioned and will be used for the work of driving the piles for the protection of the waterfront. ..
 The men under Sid Sheldon are now assembling the big piledriver and it is expected that they will be able to commence driving to- morrow morning, beginning from a point near the launch landing and will work upstream until the job is finished.

American Silks

From American Textile Designs ny
 Marion Nicholl Rawson. in the Ameri i
 can Review of Reviews.
 The silk manufacturers and printer; are buying the designs offered by the home articles. The retail houses are or- dering these native designs and will. CT course. advertise them as enthusiastica, ly as thev formerly advertised those from abroad. The prices paid are good. Young designers are even retained by one silk concern to give their entire time to the study of design problems and to turn out purely American work. By these merh- ods of cooperation is the real American textile being born.
 The inuserms of the country are rapid ly coming into prominence as important educational centers.
 For many years the American Museum of Natural History has been collecting and exhibiting historical relics from all over the universe The aim of the cura |. tors has been to- classify these in tho simplest way possible and make the mn scum a really usable organ of research. Help is offered and given to any studen- who asks it, and the popularity of such a workshop is naturally growing. Whole classes go tc study the design on old fabrics, and the material which has hiths erto been known. to comparatively few people Is now becoming familiar to many.

 Offensive.

AMSTERDAM, Sept. 1.-The rul- ing classes of Germany have taken serious alarm at the crescendo of discomfort among the masses, and are vainly trying to stem the rising tide by admonitions and exhortations to the public to keep cool and not lose heart. The newspapers are growing daily more candid in their descriptions of the deplorable state of public opinion and its causes are being examined with more or less frankness and skill
 The blame Is being freely meted out to those who are supposed to de serve it. Frantic appeals for unity are daily made. The German people are being stimulated to hold out by narrowing references to the terrible danger threatening Germany if the Entente proves victorious.
