With the French Armies, May 80.
Very severe fighting continues.
The results yesterday necessarily
were favorable on the whole to the
enemy because the Allied reserve is
only just beginning to reach the front.
A strong thrust toward Scissors to
Coucy le Chateau at the moment when
the head of the columns Of the often.
sive were striking south of the Vesle
from Braisne, Bazoches and Fismes,
suggests that the armies engaged have
already been REINFORCED.
So far an almost insolent boldness
has won through, but the French re.
sistance Is steadily increasing, and
more prudence will soon be necessary.
For instance. the river Aisne is most
awkward obstacle to have on your line
Of communications. The enemy was
able to prevent the Allies from de.
stroying all the bridges during the
withdrawal. but 1t is not too late, and
the bombarding squadrons of the Al.
lies will doubtless iind telling work
to do In, the early future.

What Shall the Kindergarten BE

kindergarten is an odious word !;
never was a poetic idea CARRIED In
clumsler dress. 1t Is clumsy with
the habitual awkwardness Of a
tongue which tacks one word on be-
hind another until such pinnacles
of gawkiness as Mittagsmahlzelt-
which means just dinner-are
achieved. But above all It is Ger
man unalloyed. 1t is one of the tiny
rootlets from the poisonous and rank
tree of Kultur which has pushed it's
way into American soil. We are en-
gagged. quite properly. in tearing up
these fibrous beginnings Of German
penetration to the very last one.
Pursuing the botanical metaphor,
at the risk always Of being tripped
by our scientific friends, It might be
said that some Of these Germanic
shoots have become separated from
the taproot, have thrlved and waxed
strong until they are to all intents
and purposes new varieties Of native
growth and as such entitled to new
and American names.
OF this sort Is the institution which
has been called the kindergarten. 1t

The order is dated. 1t will be OBJ

killing Of Archduke FERDINAND, the
act which Is generally supposed to
have precipltated the war.
In connection with Mr.. SIssoN's

A concentration Of Austrian troops

Their Delight at the Prospect Of Be
ing Kept Out Of the Army.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Sir. !
have read with a great deal of interest
the differences of opinion expressed by
Judge Rosalsky and General Bell. as
published in your newspaper. regard
ing the drafting into service OF men
who have been convicted OF violations
OF the law.
I personally feel that tho opinion OK
pressed by Judge Rosalsky is the proper
one. ! have been serving as a member
Of the legal advisory board since the
inception OF tho QUESTIONABLE system.
and while acting in such capacity many
men appeared before me, stating that
they desired to claim exemption and
be placed In Glass deferred classi-
fcation). and upon my inquiring as
to their grounds for such claims their
answer usually was. II have been in
Jail. so you can't take me into the
service"
Their attitude was always one OF
defiance and not involving moral turpi-
tude In order to avoid military service.
They seemed to take particular delight
In Boosting Of the fact that because
they had been in Jail for some minor
offence they could now stay In the
United States with safety. while those
men who have led honorable and up
right lives were TO be called upon 10
serve their country and possibly sacri-
fee their lives in the present emergency.
1t In apparent that any man who de-
sires to evade military service may by
the commission of a trivial offence be
relieved of his obligation TO serve his
country, and l therefore feel that the
attitude taken by Judge Rosalsky In
this matter Is correct and proper
l think that the class OF men herein
before referred to should be indicted
into some branch OF service. and ~ they
arc not to be trusted on the firing line
they can be put to many other tasks,
such as working in ammunition facto-
rles or on farms. all OF which will be n
the benefit OF this Government In It's

Well, It seems Louis wants to con-
tinue at college and shirk his duty when
every American boy ought to do his ut
most In this crisis Of either freedom or
German autocratic sway.
I want to say to Louis that many Of
the greatest things contributed to tho
civilization OF mankind have been given
by men who never matriculated In any
college.

II shows to my mind that he is mentally
anemic and displays none of tho red

American youth. Many college gradu-
ates turn out TO be shysters and quacks.
