FRENCH WOMEN PAINT GUNS
Thousands From Fourteen to, Past
Sixty Years Of Age Working
for the British Army.

Behind the British Lines In France.
Many thousand French women and
girls, ranging in age from fourteen to
well past sixty, are employed by the
British army at various kinds of work
behind the lines One task at which
they excel all other workers Is the
painting Of camoufiage on guns. They
also make good packers at the various
army storehouses and ordnance dumps,
their deft. active fingers making 1t
possible for them to do this work with
so per cent more efficiency and speed
than any other class of workers.
In many Of the clerical sections Of
the ordnance department they work
side by side with the uniformed Eng
hsh girls belonging to the women's
auxiliary army corps. The French
girls have no knowledge of English.

POLICE GIVE A DEEP SIGH
Conviction Of Aged Woman Ends
Criminal Career That Has Wer-
ried New York Force.

New York.-New York police are
breathing sighs of relief today be-
cause Miss Marion La Touche, seven
ty-two, is In the Tombs awaiting SEN
tence after conviction ON the charge
of grand larceny.
"Her conviction" said the district
attorney, lends q criminal career
which has worried the police Of New
York for thirty-ive years. During
that long period she has engaged sue
cessfully in swindling operations which
have baffied the power of the police to
stop. Not since 1855, when she was
sent to the penitentiary, has she been
indicted or convicted until the present
charge was made against her"
She was convicted on the charge Of
obtaining 500 from a woman on the
pretense OF making a profitable In
yestment.

THE SNOWSTORM.

TBy Dorothy b. crabtree, Ellsworth, ages
II years.
A warm wind was coming from the
south, and heavy, damp feeling was in
the air. The SCOT began to burn on The
Chimney. Presently . few white fiakes
fell from the sky, and it began to get
colder. Then the snow fiuttered down.
Soft white hskes1covered the window
pane and the children cried, "Mother
Nature is plucking her geesei"
The fr tree..spread out its branches and
WAS soon covered with q snowy, white
cloak. The naked tree limbs were warmly
wrapped with soft whitei garments as II
to recompense them for the green leaves
taken from them.
Then from the northeast, the wind BE-
gan to blow, and the fakes that before
came down steadily came hurrying,
furrying down in lnadl eddies. 1t began
to get darker, and great drifts piled up
under the. windows.
The storm increased with the night.
The wind did its best to outdo the other
elements, and.the snow covered the sleep
ing town till there was not 9 twig 50
small or barn SO barren but that il was
deeply embedded and rooted in snow
white down and marble. The chickens
lived in luxury for their humble dwelling
had been transformed into a marble
palace.
But 1t was dark outside, and nothing
could be seen but mass OF fiurrying
snow. At length the wiad stopped as
suddenly as II King Eaioe's windows had
suddenly been shut. The fakes fell gradu-
ally slower, until they fell no more, and
from bank Of clouds the moon appeared,
and, like many candles, little twinkling
stars peeped out. Underneath. the world
lay covered in blanket white.
The snow-covered peaceful country
town and.the big city, where cruelty and
vice, pain and sorrow reign, were softly
healed by the pure, white balm, and when
in the country the sturdy farmers, armed
with shoveis, did their best TO make the
roads passable, the jolly sun rose up from
his bed OF clouds and shone with all his
might as he tried to soften and melt the
work of the preceding night.

what are they? Crest British arsenais,

docks, in which we dare not show our
faces il Britain so Wills. IL is the same
around the African continent, the same in
the West Indies and in the Pacific. We
bave not a coaiing station OF our own, not
place where we can effect repairs. Yet
in face OF this--a most deadly serious
state OF afisirs--we go on piling up Of

But we must beat England, you say, no

All say is that whether we beat her or
she beats us, the consequences will be the

OF victory, impose all sorts OF conditions
securing us nsost-fsvored- nation treat

ports everywhere. No sane man believes
that these conditions will help us.
And just one point more, and 1t is per-
hsps quite as serious. With a hostile
British empire, CALLED ana freited with
our military success, raging at its losses,
hopelessly alienated, how are we to pro-
cure the raw material which this empire
alone can supply? You have studied this
question, and l am sure OF your agree
ment. You do not believe in the silly as
sertion that after the war these British
markets for raw material will be open to
us. Where are we to procure our supplies
of jute il not from Indias AZ we are
driven from Africa, where are we to seek
