EVIDENCE OF LITTLE WORTH
Eligibility Of shakespsars's Signature
Does Not Prove He Did Not
Write the Immortal Plays.

Some years ago, when the Shakes
peare controversy was at its height.
one Of the contentious Of the party
who declared that the bard not only
had not written the immortal plays
but could not even write his own
name, gave as evidence the existing
signatures that are Of undoubted au-
thenticity.
On the same grounds 1t might be
argued that Richard III was unable
to write. If one decided the matter
from the signature to . treaty a
peace with Francis. Duke Of Brittany,
which is reproduced in a London deal

HOW GERMANS ARE DELUDED
Ridiculous Statements Made by kai-
sers Government Prove How Real
10 Fear Of America.

A poster recently issued by the i'm
perial German government in an effort
to belittle the participation of America
In the war and thus strengthen the
morale of her people form the text of
one OF the most striking pieces of litera-
ture that the bureau of publicity of
the war loan organization has prepared
for use in the Forthcoming Fourth Lib
erty loan.
The title Of the poster is "Can
Americas Entry Make decision of the
WARP" Integral sections of it attempt
to convince the reader that Americas
army cannot take the place of Rus
sla's withdrawn forces; that the Unit
Ell States cannot build enough ships
to have any effect on the result of the
war, and that the U-boats will destroy
virtually all the ships that America
can build when those ships at
tempt to cross the ocean. A French
poster also is reproduced in the Ger
man poster and the meaning so twisted
as to make it appear that France is
very badly In need of food.
Two millions of the booklets have
been printed and will be distributed
In various parts Of the country, par
ticularly in theaters where Liberty
Loan speakers take the book as their
text.
The enormous figure Of a Russian
soldier is the first object on the poster
10 strike the eye. He stands with
hands in his overcoat pockets, indica-
tive Of the fact that he is through
nghting. Beside him stands Uncle Sam
holding small figure. designed to
represent the United States army, in
MS right hand. In his left hand Uncle
sam carries banner which bears the
inscription, America threatens to
send transport of one-half million men.
but 1t cannot ship them" Below
Uncle Sam are these words: ut is
impossible for America to train and
III out In time for the European war
suitable and sufficiently large army
ana provide 1t with the necessary re-
endorsements" The catchline of this
section of the poster Is "Russia's army
OF millions could not down Germany"
and on the skirt of the Russian sol
oier's overcoat are printed these
words: Russia used up altogether
hiteen million men in vain!"

PROCLAMATION BY
THE PRESIDENT OF
THE UNITED STATES

Every day the great principles for
which we are fighting take fresh hold
upon our thought and purpose and
make it clearer what the end must he
and What we must do to achieve II
We now know more certainly than
we ever knew before why free men
brought the great nation and govern
ment we love into existence, because
lit grows clearer and clearer what ST.
preme service it is to be Americas
privilege to render to the world. The
anniversary of the discovery of Amer
lea must therefore have for us in this
Hateful year peculiar and thrilling
Significance. We should make it day
of ardent rededication to the ideals
upon which our government is founded
and by which our present heroic tasks
are inspired.
Now. therefore, I, Woodrow Wilson,
President of the United States of
America, do appoint Saturday, the 18th
day of October, 1918, as Liberty duy,
On that day request the citizens of
every community of the United States,
city. town and countryside, to cele-
brate the discovery Of our country in
order to stimulate generous response
to the Fourth Liberty Loan Commem-
Orative addresses, pageants, harvest
home festivals, or other demonstra-
tions should be arranged for in every
neighbOrhOod under the general direc-
tiOn Of the secretary of the treasury
and the immediate direction OF the
Liberty Loan committee in co-opera-
ton with the United States bureau Of
education and the public school au-
thorities. Let the peoples response to
the Fourth Liberty Loan express the
measure of their devotion to the ideals
which have guided the country from
its discovery until now, and of their
determined purpose to defend them
and guarantee their triumph.
For the purpose Of participating in
Liberty day celebrations all employees
of the federal government throughout
the country whose services can be
spared may be excused on Saturday,
the 18th day of October, for the entire
day.
In witness whereof, have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of
the United States to be affixed.

to the making of armor that can be
worn by the modern soldier armor
heavy enough to be invulnerable, light
enough to carry.
Revive Work Of Old Masters.
This question of weight and there
fore practicability of armor for the
man on foot-the man who makes a
charge to the time of Louis
Nv of France. when the use Of defen-
sive protection had practically dlsap-
peared and an attempt was made to
revive the steel helmet. Indeed. the
development of armor from the time
of side arms until the use of firearms
is one Of exceeding interest at this
time, in that the government is re-
viewing the work of some of the
greatest Of the old masters in armOr
making, with a view to reinstating the
best and most feasible of the old meth
DDS of defensive protection.
The use of armor dates back to the
ninth century B. c. and became more
elaborate and complex until the intro
duction of gunpowder. The helmet was
the first body protection to appear and
was followed by the cuirass-the lat
ter being used by the Greeks and Ro-
mans and reappearing at the time Of
Charlemagne In the form of waist
coat made of overlapping metal scales
and of rather imperfect execution.
What Norman Warrior Wore.
In the eleventh century. according
to the Bayeaux tapestries as we'll as

find the coat Of mail assuming first
the shape Of redingote and later that
of bathing suit. completed by he'll
met conical at the nose. This. together
with the use of leather plates on the
feet and hands, constituted the equip
ment of Norman warrior.
A study of the sculptures of the
Reims cathedral and the evangelia-
rum of St. Louis (National library
points to the development, in the
twelfth century. of a perfected coat Of
mail. a metal combination united with
the helmet by passe-montagne of
steel links; the whole. constituting a
hauberk. protected the warrior with
the haube-a cylindrical helmet made
Of pieces of forged metal adjusted by
rivets and pierced by two peepholes.
At the beginning of the fourteenth
century the desire to protect the joints
caused the placing Of metal plates at
shoulder and knee. The haube disap-
peared and was replaced by a helmet
of a type called Bassinet, with NOV
able visor pierced by holes to permit
sight and ventilation. BY the middle
of the fourteenth century chain armor
had disappeared to a considerable de-
gree, and plate armor was taking ITS
place. the plates at the joints being

rather hard to digest, though even If
