Supply Each Man With One.

At a cafe in New York which is
much frequcntcd by actors they were
talking of German methods as ex-
cmplifcd in this war. Jack Hazard
felt moved to tell the following story,
according to the Saturday Evening
Post:
"Ouly the other day heard
very interesting case, which Illus
tratcs how careful those fellows are
about obeying orders stated llaz-
ard. at seems that during the IN
ya.ion Of Belgium n captain IN a
Prussian regiment got hold Of a hun

With such conditions existing
what will happen at the end Of the
long, hard Russian winter? And if
actual starvation blights the chief
cities of Russia, then what can be
hoped for from the army and the
government
In the largest sense, of course,
Russia will survive. To certain
extent that vast country may even
"come back" before the end of the
war. But no help from Russia can
be counted on by the allies. They
may hope for some uncertain assist
ance, but their plans will necessarily
be made without reckoning on Mus
covite cooperation at all.
