Yet fate and the war had wrought
no less startling changes in thou
sands of quiet lives.
Ny husband, student. radical and
paCifist before the war, was converted
to the righteousness OF battle and
was gone to do his own proper share
in cleaning up on the detestabIe Hun.
Tommy, the grocers boy. when he
acknowledged the receipt OF the socks.

ferred 10 the tanks because he want

Hindenburg line and to carry victory
over the Rhine to Berlin! 1 had tried
to picture Tommy navigating that his

And the beautiful and exclusive
Chrystabel Lorimer was doubtless at
the very moment of my danger, wav-
ing liberty bonds before a street-cor-
ner crowd from the altitude of a soap
box! For once l envied Chrys.
Everybody seemed to have made the
most Of duty-excepting me. And /,
the very day Bob left, had vowed to
be worthy OF my soldier. had prom
ised myself to do my deed for victory,
Now my chances were slipping away
forever.
The thought Of my husband stripped
my camouflage of courage from me.
I whimpered pitifully. like a child left
in the dark.
At that the leader deigned to con-
slider me. He had been resting on his
oars as rowers do. sometimes, when
looking forward. He took the band
age from my lips. Bob! Bobw' /

Then the big man announced, as IL

ENLISTING FALLS
OFF AMONG IRISH
Recruits Will Be Short of the
$4,000 Men Demanded.

London.-After a brief squirt in
which a large number of Irishmen
Joined up as fliers, recruiting has
again fallen off sharply in Ireland
Nearly all the British papers now
state that it is certain that nothing
like $4,000 recruits have been OBJ
tanned. The government condition
on which conscription was not to
be applied was that this number
should have enlised by October 1.
The Manchester Guardian says
that "those behind the scenes are
taking il for granted that there
will be a substantial extension" in
the time allotted for raising $4,000
volunteers.
The Daily Chronicle says that in
this recruiting campaign ulster
evinces no more alacrity than the
rest of Ireland to send its sons into
the army" This paper speaks Of
the many blunders" of the govern
ment in ireland since 1914. and de-
mands that the recruiting time limit
be extended indefinitely"
