Unprecedented but Expected

President Wilson's intention to at
tend the peace conference at Paris is
indicated Ill Washington dispatches.
While his leaving the country would
be without precedent, the President
has never shown any respect for
precedents when these stood in the
way of his purposes.
The aim Of the Wilson foreign
policy has been, from the first, a de-
parture from the isolation imposed
by the Monroe doctrine and the. at
mosphere of exclusive national con-
Germ created by that doctrine. 1t
may be regarded by the President as
a logical next step in widening the
national outlook before the advent of
the League of Nations he has in
mind for him to cross the ocean and
thus dramatically to symbolic the
contact established between the Old
World and the New.-Montreal Star.

HOW HE TRIMMED
A GERMAN CAPTAIN
Yankee Truck Driver Made the Hun
Officer Obey Him

A Yankee truck-driver and Prus-
sian officer clashed back of the. Cha
teau- Thierry front, as runs the aut-
hentic report of returned American
officer, and when the clash was over
the Yankee truck-driver had found
way to remove from the Prussian
officer the arrogance for Wni.n all
Pras sian cf.icels are justly faLaoue.
The tale was rclayed from the from.
4. amp Dix, N j., and thence to the
New York Sun, which repeats it
thus:
After depositing supplies and am
munition at the front, the big army
trucks were filled with German pris-
oners who were to be taken to the
rear. A German captain, member of
a famous Prussian regiment, was
among the detail of prisoners assign
ed to ride in truck of which this
particular driver had charge. The
Boches had filled the body Of the car
when the driver noticed that the cap
tain had not joined them.
"Climb in therew he ordered.
"Look at my uniform! Don't you
recognize that I'm captain? You
don't expect me to ride with them?"
he said in perfect English, indicating
his erstwnile soldiers, as if they were
so many Gagged dogs. Then he de-
manded a place on the drivers seat,
where there were already two slight
ly wounded American soldiers wait
ing to gel back to dressing-stations
Nothing doing! Pm particular
about my company! Get in with
your gang, and be quick about it'll"
said the Yankee.
"Throw off those American swine
and make room for me on that front
seatw ordered the Prussian "I'm t.
captain and"
He got no further. The driver slid
grin1y fist into his pocket and whipt
out big penknife, while the other
hand shot down, gript the Prussian
by the collar, and powerful arm
ierked hin, from the ground as if he
had been child
Captain Ell? Well, we won't let
that worry you long! See here!''
And as he spoke, the hand with the
knife deftly clipped the insignia from
the officers shoulders.
you're busted" he said. you're
a private now! Get back in the ranks
with the rest of themi" And he
dropt the sputtering Prussian into
the back of the truck among the
other prisoners.

The length Of time it takes to obtail
a patent depends partly on the natur
of the application, that is, the thin
to be patented, and partly on the ski
with which the case is presented
There are forty distinct divisions il

in charge specific class or variety OF
work. Each application is examined
in the order of filing and some of the
divisions are considerably behind in

more than to the cockney shopman,

Earliest Form OF Shoes.

The earliest shoes known were san
dals of hide, leather or wood. When
one encounters the word "Shoe" in the
Bible he may be sure that it is the
sandal that is commonly meant. In
Egypt the sanGal was woven of palm
leaves and papyrus. AS a symbol of
the subsection of their enemies the
Egyptians often painted the figures of
their opponents on the lining of their
