MAKE WAR IN GERMANY

Already" Henry Allen writes
from Paris, Allied air strength
equals the German" Which merely
emphasizes the fact that so far there
is no such thing as superiority in
the air. England and France have
Just about been able to keep pace
with Germany in the construction
of aircraft.
That is the reason the success of
our aircraft program is a vital mat
ter. When America comes in strong
with fighting planes. then and then
only will the supremacy of the air
be attained. with all the advantages
that this gives.
The usefulness of bombing from
airplanes has been questioned by
various military critics. 1t is hard,
they point out, to score direct hits.
since the aircraft must generally
fly at great height. But there is
another effect that Mr.. Allen men,
tons in his letter. Continued air
raids get on peoples nerves. A
mans efficiency as a worker is low
cred when he knows that any mo-
ment there may be a deadly explo-
sion in his neighborhood. or in the
neighborhood of his family.
When the day actually comes. as
come It will, that American planes
in numbers hitherto undreamed of
shall flock over the cities of the
Rhine Valley. life will be made a
veritable hell for millions of Ger
mans. It is a horrible way to con-
duct war. But it is merely using the
weapon that Germany chose

This 'curd" is peddled about the
streets of China, fresh each morning.
Chinese housewives buy it in such

Soy Bean Sauce
When you eat chop suey, chow
mein and similar dishes at Chinese
restaurants the salty black sauce
served with the food is made from
soy beans. 1t is by no means simply
condiment. 1t is as nutritious as
meat gravy.
Soy beans contain 10 to 20 and
even 80 per cent of oil" Doctor Kin
resumed. More than half of this
can be extracted under pressure.
This oil is used commercially. in
paints. oils, ETC.. and is something

"One is the whole bean, ground.
but this has a high degree of oil
and is strong in flavor. The other
is the bean cake which is the form
of the flour after the oil is expressed.
1t bears the same relation to the
other that milk does after the cream
has been taken out"
This bean cake" is what Doctor
Kin is trying by various processes
to adapt to American uses. So far

FIRST IMPRESSIONS

IA French Officer in Paris Temps. ]
Infinitely interesting is our con-
tact with the American troops. They
have occupied the sector immediately
beside ours. We have seen them at
work, and could form an idea. and it
should be told and retold that they
are marvellous. The Americans are
soldiers by nature, and their officers
have the desire to learn with an en-
thusiasm and an idealistic ardor very
remarkable. There is the same spirit
among the privates. They absolutely
astonished us on a morning of at
tack. The cannonading. suddenly
becoming furious, had just thrown
me out of my bunk. No doubt about
it. 1t was a Verdun attack. Taking
time to seize my revolver, put on my
helmet, and gather up several docu-
ments, I descended to the streets.
When I arrived there they were al
ready filing by with rapid. easy, de-
cided steps. marching in perfect sill
ence with admirable resolution, and
above all with. striking discipline,
to their fighting positions. 1t was
fine. You can have no idea how
cheering it was to my Poilus.

SOUL OF THE CHURCH

We would like to put into the pul.
pit of the church a man who can
preach like Chrysostom, Bourdaloue
or even Gabriel, and put into the
choir loft or chance1 a choir that can
sing like the angels But it is NOT
in that that the power of a church
resides. 1t resides primarily in the
souls of the men and women who
occupy the pews. There is nothing
to he gained by all this painful up
setting of present arrangements un-
less by this means there is going to
be created an institution so alive
with the power of God that 1t shall
put an irresistible spiritual stamp
upon the community in the midst of
which it is placed: and that is to be
done not by your amalgamated pas
tor as your representative and proxy.
but by you who will be inherent con-
stituents in the body of the church.

"MADELON"
[Heywood Brown in The A. E.

(Heywood Brown in The A. E. FL
/ heard that song ("Madelon")
many times afterwards and it always
brings to mind a picture of dusty
French soldiers marching with their
short, quick. eager style. They are
always dusty. All summer long they
wear big overcoats which come be-
low the knee. Dust settles and null
tiplies and If you see a French regi-
ment marching in the spring rainy
season it will still be dusty. Per-
haps their souls are a little dusty
now, but it is French dust. And as
they march they sing, as the men
sang to the newly arrived Americans
in the train that night:
For all the soldiers on their holi-
There is a place, just tucked in by
the woods.
A house with ivy growing on the
walls
A cabaret-"Aux Toulourous"-the
goods!
The girl who serves is young and
sweet as love,
She's light as any butterfly in spring,
Her eyes have got sparkle like her
wine.
We call her Madelon-it's got a
swing;
The soldier girl! She leads us all a
dance!
She's only Madelon. but she's Ro-
nance!
We all have girls for keeps that wait
at home
Who'll marry US when fighting time
is done:
But they are far way-too far to tell
What happens in these days of cut
and-run.
We sigh away such days as best we
And pray for time to bring us nearer
home.
But tales like ours won't wait till

We have to run and boast to Made

We steal a kiss-she takes 1t t~all in
play;
We dream she is that other-far
away.

Went counting Madelon one sum-

And mad with love. he swore she

And he would wed her any day she'd

She danced away and laughed: My
stars above!
Why. how could I consent to marry

THE TANTALIZING IDEAL
My only Love is always near

Ny only Love is always near
In country or in town
1 see her twinkling feet, hear
The whisper of her gown.
She foots it ever fair and young,
Her locks are hid in haste,
And one is Ger her shoulder flung,
And hangs below her waist.
She ran before me in the meads;
And down this world-worn track
She leads me on; but while she leads
She never gazes back.
And yet her voice is in my dreams,
To witch me more and more:
That wooing voicel All me, 1t seems
Less near me than of yore.
Lightly I sped when hope was high,
And youth beguiled the chase;
/ follow--follow still; but
Shall never see her face!

Adapting the Soy Bean
to American Cookery
(By ZOE BECKLEY)

IN the top floor of 641 Washing
I Iton street in New York City is
one of the most interesting
kitchens in the world. Presiding over
its grinding mill and its stoves.
its cupboards and it's expert
ment tables is the only Chinese
woman ever employed by the
United States to adapt scien-
tifically to the American diet the
products of the Orient. She recently
spent six months in trip to China
to study and analyze the soy bean.
Doctor Yamei Kin alone, her quaint
blue robe and her puzzling blend of
Eastern looks and Western speech.
would make the place charming. But
We must not forget the soy bean.
The soy or soya or sofa bean, you
remember, began to be heard of
about the time potatoes and rice
went soaring up from the price of
necessities to the price of luxuries.
Use soy BEANS" said somebody be-
longing to a food board. And as
soon as friend wife could find where
to buy soy bean -four she began to
use it.
But instead of being a carbohy-
drate bean, it is a protein bean, and
its uses should be figured on that
basis. Hence Doctor Kin and her
wonderful kitchen.
Takes Pride in Soy Beans
The little. doctor in the sky-blue
gown seems proud of the soy bean.
She says it has been used as q staple
article OF food in her country "since
B. c."
And yet" she says, "even in coun-
tries where the bean is used for the
protein part of the peoples food they
do not use it as plain boiled bean.
1t does not take the place. for in
stance, of the white navy bean
which housewives are accustomed to
boil or to bake with pork. There is
too much oil in the soy bean to make
it agreeable. Its great usefulness is
in the manufactured forms. These
forms are what I am trying to de-
velop in this laboratory.
"It is a replacer of meat-a vege-
table cheese. 1t is of great value to
persons who cannot safely eat meat
It forms no acid. 1t is an alkaline
form of protein"
She turned to a row of jars.
"Here we have 1t combined with
tomato" she said Here again 1:

THIRD TERM NONSENSE

TIME third term nonsense of which
Vice President Marshall was
guilty at Indianapolis is still go
ing the rounds of the press. We do
not believe Mr.. Marshall spoke with
authority; he seldom does. He is the
bad boy of the administration, al
ways saying things which embarrass
the president. But like the bad boy
of the family he sometimes blurts
out more of the truth than is de-
signed for public information. Oc-
casionally he drops an innermost
family secret.
If the president or his friends are
entertaining any such foolish ideas
at this time let them get into their
heads the thought that their job at
this time is exclusively the winning
of the war. That IS a task big
enough to fully occupy the atten-
tion of any administration and the
public has a right to expect concen-
trated attention upon it by those en-
trusted with it.

BURLESON AND LIQUOR

is charged, and not denied, that
Postmaster General Burleson
l. has taken time enough away
from his favorite sport of throwing
monkey wrenches into the wheels
of the postal machinery to conduct
a secret lobby against the enactment
OF national prohibition statute at
this session of Congress.
II Mr.. Burleson knows as little
about the benefits OF national pro-
hibition as he does about the proper
conduct of the postal system it is
little wonder that he conceals his
activities. But what has prohibition
to do with the postoffice department?
or is Mr.. Burleson one of those silly
gentlemen who profess to believe
that the efficiency OF workmen is in
creased by the drinking of alcoholic
beverages?
Nor did the other witnesses who
testified yesterday before the COM
mittee bring out any convincing ar
guments in favor of booze for ship
builders. Secretary Daniels, who has
brought the Navy to unheard of de-
grees of efficiency since he put pro-
hibition into effect in the sea service.
says that beer for shipbuilders is as
unnecessary as for ship operators.
and there is no reason to believe he
Is wrong.
Bainbridge Colby, who raised all
the storm, is being used as a tool
by the brewing interests who have
thought so much of his remarks that
they have caused them to be pub
lished as full page paid advertise
ment in Washington newspapers.
And this is the concluding sentence
in Mr.. Colby's highly logical appeal
for poison to keep the shipbuilders in
good physical condition: THE world
wants not an increase of righteous
ness; it wants victory for free insti-
tutions," predicated upon a merchant
marine built by beer-drinking ship
builders.
Is the man joking or is he simply
silly?

PROMPT COOPERATION

PROMPT COOPERATION
NE EMBERs of City Council have
AVA lost no time in preparing to
cooperate with the State au-
thorities for the erection of a monu-
mental.viaduct at State street to con-
meet the Capitol Park extension with
the Hill district. The resolution
passed at yesterdays session in
structing City Solicitor John E. Fox
to get into touch with the Board OF
Public Grounds and Buildings al
once and to prepare legislation for
the city's part in the big enterprise
shows that the councilmen appre-
ciate thoroughly the importance of
getting under way as quickly as pos
sible.
When Architect Drummer was in
Harrisburg recently he commented
enthusiastically over the hearty CO.
operation and perfect harmony that
has always existed between the State
and the city In the matter of the
Capitol Park development, and yes
terday's action by Council is merely
a continuation of the policy that has
marked the extension project since
its very inception.
The councilmen realize that the
city is offered such a bargain as
may never come its way again and
that it must be accepted while the
State is in its present generous mood.
The resolution adopted is the first
step toward taking the necessary ac-
ton to transfer the Walnut street
bridge fund. voted by the people
some years ago, to the State street
fund as the city's very small share
toward the great structure with
which the Commonwealth proposes
TO carry the park development by
means of an eighty-foot viaduct to
the people of the Hill.
When Bethlehem proposed the
erection Of some such bridge as is
planned for State street, municipal
credit and private subscription had
