And then, fortified by three cups OF
e., and six slices of toast We asked
laurence Grant TO tell us all about the
Kaiser. (Oh, yes, we had tea with him
Of course
The reason we asked him was be-
cause every one had told us that Mr..
Vohenzollcrn could not use his left
arm: that il was withercd or some
,h;nr. like his soul. And then we went
70 sec ITO He'll With tho Kaiser" and
Mr.. Grant played the latter half of the
title role, and he made this much
hated ruler not exactly ambidexterous
but at least he allowed him free use of
his left arm. And We wanted to know
all about II, so We asked and VIC
learned.
That withered arm Of the kaiser's is
a popular fallacy, 1t would be popular
of course. Anything which caused "a
certain party" Inconvenience or en-
barrassment would be popular here at
present; but Mr.. Grant says the
withered arm is not withered; and he
should know, for he has seen the Kai-
ser scores Of times and has shaken
hands with him-not recently.
This tall walking stick which l am
carrying here originated with the Kai-
SER" said Mr.. Grant. "You see, his
left arm is four inches shorter than
his right arm, and he always carries
his stick in his left hand. You might
meet him any number of times and
never notice the deformity, for when
he isn't carrying stick he rests his
hand on his sword, if he happens to
be wearing one, or he puts it in his
pocket or behind him. Concealing this
physical defect has become second
nature to him. His left hand he uses
for displaying his rings; his right hand
he uses to gesticulate with, or to bang

has a fine sense of humor and is ex-
tremely democratic-at times
All Of this was vastly interesting.
At last we knew man who knew the
Kaiser, and We decided that we would
Immediately tell everybody-that is,
everybody who reads The Tribune
that they were all wrong in their criti-
cism Of Mr.. Grants Kaiser. All previ-
ous portrayals of Mr. Hohenzollern
have shown him with his lest arm glued
to his side.
But then, Mr.. Grant gave US an en-
tirely new version of Germany's ruler.
and he managed to make him dignified

decidedly up-to-date story of New York

THE BEST FOOT FORWARD

1t may be we'll to put ones best foo
forward, but, as someone has said
the man who gets ahead is the mar
who puts both feet forward, one al
a time, and keeps it up.
There's something wrong with the
person who doesn't like to walk, es-
pecially when he doesn't have to. The
cool, even if damp, mornings We have
had lately held a call for your true
walker. There's a touch in the air
that holds forth a promise of Indian
summer. The trees look greener than
ever before, the grass longer-(Ah,
that reminds one The lawnmower.
Cutting grass is a privilege that ranks
not second even to walking itself)
Good health and a clear conscience
are necessary companions when one
walks for pleasure. But-and here's
the secret-they come unbidden to
the person who gives himself up to
walk in the country. There's a men
tai and moral tonic in outdoor walk
ing. as well as physical.

we depend normally on our refiners'
reserve supply of cane sugar of some
| 100000 tons. Since our shortage dur
ing the latter part of last year our re-
serve stock has been depleted. Re
finers now have only about 12,O0O tons
or raw cane sugar on hand, about 80
per cent of the normal reserve supply.
Had our consumption in the last six
months been reduced sufficiently, re-
finers' stocks might have been large
enough to take care of our needs.
AT no time this year have stocks
been anywhere near those of pre-war
years or of last year. At the latest
date, August 10, stocks were still not
much more than One-half of last
years. This alone indicates the neces-
sity for conservation"
Affected by Labor Shortage.
An additional factor which compli-
Gates the sugar situation, it was point
ed out by the educational director, is
the physical factor of the geographical
extent of our country. 1t is possible,
he said, there may be an excess of sug-
ar in the country as a whole, and at
the same time severe shortages in par
ticular localities far away from CEN
ters of distribution. So it is neces-
sary not only to make certain of suf-
fcient supplies for the country taken |
as unit, but it also is necessary to
plan ahead with a view of having sug-
ar available in all parts of the country
even in the face of transportation diff
ficulties. This involves building I'D of
larger stocks than usual.
With the shortage of labor already
existent in the United
States owing to the demand of the
war industries, and with the prospect

Regulations of the Food Admins
tration, as recently announced, are
emphatic upon the point that substi-
tutes bought with wheat -four under
the new copper cent rule are not to
take the place of cornmeal formerly
bought for cornbread. That is to be
bought extra, without necessity for
cOmpulsion. The 20 per cent of sub
stitutes is expected to be mixed with
the wheat flour bought at the same
time so that home-baked bread and
rolls will be Victory bread, the same
as bakers are required to sell.

| 1888 sugar crops to make up for any
deficiency in our present supply. 1t
is better, food officials declare, to
build up stocks against further crop
reduction.
Java's supply Too Far Away.
"All of the foregoing considerations,
however, would not bring about a
shortage in normal times" the educa-
tional director said. sugar could be
brought from distant places if the de-
mand was sufficient to warrant the
financial outlay TO obtain supplies.
There are now some 500, 900 tons of sug-
ar available in Java of last years crop
too far away to be moved, either to the
United States. or to the Allies, which
in ordinary times would have been
brought here to relieve the situation.
The economic using of shipping facili-
ties in accordance with our war pro-
gram makes IL advisable that we re-
duce our sugar consumption and EN-
plOy shipping for more necessary pur-
poses.
THE entire sugar situation is an
outgrOwth of war conditions, and it
must be attacked as a war problem. |
We may expect it to be with us prob
lem until the war ends and this makes
the restrictive regulations
on sugar consumption, although at
times there may appear to be a sur
plus of sugar stocks in the country"
