British Friendship Gro1Us.
Winston Churchill, in Scribners.

The French are lovable, and worthy of all the sympathy and
affection we can give them. But Britain is still nominally a monarchy,
and our patriot thinks of it's people very much as the cowboy used to
regard citizens of New York. They al! lived on Fifth avenue. For the
cowboy, the residents Of the dreary side streets simply did not exist,
We have been wont to think Of all the British as aristocrats, while
they have returned the compliment by visuaizing all Americans as
plutocrats-despite the fact that one-tenth OF our population Is SAID
to own ninetenths of all our wealth!
But the war will change that, is already changing it. We have
been soaked in the same common law, literature and traditions OF
iberty-or of chaos, as one likes. Whether we all be OF British origin
or not, it is the mind that makes the true patriot; and there is no
American so dead as not to feel a thrill when he first sets foot on
British soil. Our school teachers felt it when they began to travel
some 20 wears ago and the thousands of our soldiers who pass through
on their way to France are feeling it today, and writing home about it.
Our soldiers and sailors are being cared for and entertained IN
England lust as they would be cared for and entertained at home. So
are their officers.
Not long ago one of the finest town houses in London was donated
bv the owner for an American officers club, the funds were raised by
contributions from British officers, and the club was inaugurated by
the king and oueen-and Admiral Sims. Hospitality and good will
have gone much farther than this.

SUGAR Nearly deal Food.

From the New York Independent.
Common sugar is almost an ideal food.
Cheap, clean, white, portable, imperish-
able, unadulterated pleasant tasting,
germ free, highly nutritious, completely
soluble. altogether digcstible, easily as
similable, requires no cooking and leaves
no residue.
It's only fault is its perfection. 1t is so
pure that a man cannot live on 1t. Four
square Jumps give 100 calories of energy.
But % or 80 times that amount would not
constitute a days ration, in fact, one
would ultimately starve on such fare. 1t
would be like supplying an army with an
abundance of powder but neglecting to
provide any bullets, clothing or food. To
make sugar the sole food IS impossible. To
make 1t the main food is unwise.
1t Is quite proper for man to separate
out the distinct ingredients OF natural
products-to extract butter from tho
milk, the casein from the cheese, the
sugar from the cane-but he must not
forget to combine them again at each
meal with the other essential foodstuffs
in their proper proportions.

ANOTHER PROBLEM TO SOLVE
Little Matter of scientific Training"
of Modern Child That Seems to
Call for Consideration.

The parent who wishes to train his
children according to the Scientific
method has his troubles. Witness
this %iletter, published in the Survey:
"Iswrite to see if any Of your read
ers can help me out in the matter Of
finding some book or pamphlet that
will stell me the logical and scientific
order In which to teach my two little
girls, aged eight and six, the indoor
games Of lotto, parchesi, checkers,
backgammon, halma, chess and the
like, ssuch as authors and the different
card.games. Which should come first,
checkers o r parchesi? Any Informal
ton will be welcome"
AS the problem is not solved by the
editor Of the Survey, suggestions seem
TO be In order. Why not let the chill.
dren start with bridge and chess and
gradually work up to the point where
they can appreciate lotto, halma and

Camp Life Reform.

That the training of an alien rookie
at the camps makes q real man ana a
good citizen of him was demonstrated
recently, when a former Italian boot
black was encountered on the main
street. He came from Italy a year ago
and applied for naturalization papers.
Along came the war. He was drafted
In the first call. Then he came to

French Theater Magnate
Shocked By Londo Girls

A letter from Frank C. Payne. who
is presenting A. II. Woods interests
in London, tells Of . debate now roinE
on in Paris because Of q statement
made by N. Barretts. the director OF
the Folies Bergere. to the effect that
London music hall revues had become
positively shocking. NJ. Barretta is q
sort OF r. Ziegfeld. ir.. Of Paris, and
his confession OF having been shock
ed by an English revue upset all the
traditions OF the French capital and
annoyed the journalists who nnd IA
the reputation Of Paris for the worlds
spiciest entertainments an important
asset,
"Barretta maintained" writes
Payne, that London was not only
following In the footsteps Of Paris In
its recent revues. but that the amount
of undress Of the girls in the London
productions did not by any means con-
stitute family entertainment
What a howl this has raised In
