 Probably 50.000 prisoners were taken by the British in Palestine and it seemed likely that almost the entire Turkish force caught in the trap would be captured or destroyed. The seventh and eighth Turkish armies were virtually aunihilated. There is added satisfaction in the fact that Li- man von Sanders. the German general issirno Of the Turkish forces. was in command there and fled from Naza- reth just in time to avoid capture.

The news of the week was so good that it seems necessary once more to warn the people of the United States against undue optimism concerning the early coming of peace. Allied con- handlers and statesmen agree In the opinion that unless there is a sudden and unexpected collapse Germany cap well hold out for at least another year, and that we must make all our prepara- tions for war that will not end before 1920. If then. Moreover, the prevail ing idea that the morale of the German soldiers has greatly declined is mistak- en. They are still in most cases fight ing hard despite their recent reverses, and low morale is observable mainly in prisoners. where it is to be expect ed. Germany is by no means at the end of her resources, the distance to the Rhine Is great and her resistance may be expected to grow stronger, the closer the allied armies get to German territory. The final outcome. as has been said many times in this review, is not in doubt, but the greatest blows for civilization and freedom are yet to be dealt.
 Hollands food situation has become so distressing that the Dutch cabinet Is trying hard to effect an arrangement by which the offer of the United States can be accepted. This, in word, is that foodstuffs will be sent from this country, under guaranty against their re-exportation, provided Holland will send her own ships to get them. The Dutch feel that they must first make an arrangement with Germany and obtain formal guaranty that their vessels will not be sunk or seized for if they were she would probably be forced into the war. It Is difficult situation for the Dutch and they are entitled to much sympa- thy, but to a great extent their food troubles are due to the. greed of their own food profteers, who for a long time imported provisions only to sell them to the Germans at extraordinary prices.
 The campaign for the fourth Liberty loan of 5000. GOO. 900 opened Satur- day morning with immense enthusiasm exhibited in every city, town and vil- lage of the country. The people are as determined as is the government to make this loan a swift and overwhelm- ing success, for they now fully realize that Tn thus lending their money to themselves they are providing the means of keeping the Huns from talk ing it from them by force. And that is only the selfish part of their view. They also know that the loan is vital ly necessary to the salvation of hu- manity the world over.

WOMAN'S CLUB

In these strenuous times of war
work it is indeed hard to get a quo
rum for such organizations as the wo-
mans club, but the dozen or more la
dies who were present at the regular
meeting Wednesday afternoon at the
library auditorium, enjoyed thorough
ly the informal discussion regarding
the appropriation of the years dues
to the Red Cross treasury, and while
it was very evident that the club de-
sires to do the patriotic thing, no &C
ton could be taken at this time.
Mrs. Will Adams and Mrs. Guy
Robinson, hostess for the afternoon,
had prepared a patriotic program
which began with several selections
from FIVE members of the Fitz-Hi
Ukelele Club, Misses Elizabeth Nc
Carly, Margaret Wise, Athleen Dick
ey, Dorothy Thurmond, and Fife
Cleo Brewer.
Mrs. Yeatman, of Montgomery,
Ala, gave reading, composition
found in the knapsack of slain
young soldier of the Civil War, which
newspapers gave the title, Now
Lay Me Down to Sleep"
A beautiful Victrola record was
used for the closing number, the
Star Spangled Banner, sung by
Madame Louise Homer
The two closing meetings of the
year will be held the first and third
Wednesdays in April, the latter being
the annual election of officers. All
meetings are held in the library audi
forum, the club room having been
given over for Red Cross headquar-
tiers for the entire duration Of the
war.
