 But even though the fighting has stopped there is still need for ship ping. Other countries are demanding 1t as we'll as we are and the shipbuild- ing industry in this country is due to boom for some time to come. In the meantime there is the question as to what is going to be done regard ing the shipbuilding work under way for the government It certainly seems that to finish it is far preferable to abandoning it and will be by far the cheaper in the end.

Furthermore the financial situation of Germany under the allies terms did not promise to be such as would make the partnership an alluring one. So apparently Austria must continue to ex- ist, though shorn of much of her ter ritory and all her prestige. Disarna- ment such as was imposed on Ger many is included in the Austrian terms and the entire fleet must be surrender ed. As an inland state, Austria will have as little use for navy as Switzerland.
 With Turkey and Bulgaria the Unit ed States was not technically at war but the allied premiers seem to desire President Wilson to sit with them while the terms are being drawn up for presentation to Germanys less CT companions in crime. The most important matters to be settled are the possession of Constantinople and the future of Armenia. To keep Rus sia from Constantinople has been Eng lands policy for long years Ii was this that induced her to maintain the ''sick man of Europe" so long on his throne in spite of the barbarity of Turkish administration. But Russia S collapse has removed her as a claim ant TOT the Golden Horn, and the new policy of internationalizing places in which all mankind has interests in common will make it necessary to choose some nation to administer the straits and the lands adjacent. Amer iea alone could do the work without causing jealousy among the nations of Europe. but it remains to be seen whether she would accept the commis- sion if it should be offered. Armenia likewise must be freed forever from Turkish rule and guarded until sine is able to maintaip herself as an inde- pendent nation. Here also American aid would he most welcome. It is per haps to interest in the United States i'll these remote lands in the hope that America will aid in regenerat ting the old world that the preniers of Europe desire the American president to con- tinue with them in council.

HER LIFE STORY

By this time we were on the train and still together. She had three chil- dren, had my little companion. And the worst time getting a nurse! 1 really couldn't imagine! Such awful experi- ences with them and the worst was with Frnacine. But she simply had to endure it and keep Francine because she had been two months in the hos pital with an operation and somebody had to be with the children. There wasn't silk stocking left in her chif- fonier by the time she got home, and three crepe de chine nightgewns had never shown up to this day
 Her brother Jack had just got home from France and maybe she was mt happy over 1t! Poor Jack wouldn't you know that chap as good looking and brilliant would be nabbed by some little cat of girl who couldn't appreciate him? Yes, he had been married before the war and he was so beautiful to Clara = nobody would dream his life wasn't perfectly happy. All she hoped for was that it wouldn't end in divorce. divorce did mix things up so, didn't I think. And she 1 hoped that Jack wouldn't ever meet the i right woman because If he did and ac-
 tually fell in love with her it certainly 1 would be awful.
 i "Goodness--that sign board whiZzing by had reminded her that she had for

 it was about food? Really, sometimes she told Henry that she just knew he could bear finding the house burned down and herself eloped and the ehil-
 dren vanished, provided his dinner
 came to the table all right that even ing. Wasn't my husband like that too? Oh, r-r-really? Why she would never have dreamed I wasn't married
 Of course, I was young enough not tt be-but she had thought-deaT me, was getting off at Van Buren street? She was so glad to have had this little visit

SOLDIERS, INSURANCE.

An effort that should receive the attention of each and every man as he Is released from the army is that which is being made by the govern ment to have him retain his insur- ance that was carried during his pe riod of service. The insuring of the lives of the men was an excellent move on the part of the government for the protection of the dependents, but what was true when the men were under arms and subjected to the risks of war is likewise true after they have been discharged from the service. If they took out the limit as they went into the service they may not feel that they can keep up the insurance for the full amount but the advisahil- ity of continuing as much of such in- surance as possible. for it will be at elsewhere, should not be disregarded.
 There were over four and half million policies written during the war for the men in uniform. Instead of averaging about 5000, the policies averaged nearly 5000 with premiums running about s6.60 a month for a s1o000 policy. As the result of this insurance and the war hazard that was assumed by the government there will be paid war claims amounting to about a billion dollars though the premiums paid in will to- tai about s225,O0o,900.
 The soldiers have had the protec- tion during the period of the fighting and service, but though the war hazard may be over it is a sound bus mess proposition that the government now offers them and they should be eager to take advantage of the terms which they can secure. They should not neglect this opportunity for future protection for dependents and self that their service has opened tc them.

Mir. J. H. Thomas, who is now on his way across the Atlantic. is not paying his first visit to America. When, in 1917, it was decided to send Mir Bal four to the United States as head of the British mission it was suggested from America, that labor deputation should accompany him.
 The British government turned to MT. Thomas, and he consented to go. On his return the rai1waymen's leader publicly urged that private indivad- uals should visit the United States more frequently to cement Anglo American friendship, and MT. Thomas is now putting this precept into prac- tice on his present holiday-the first opportunity he has had.

DEMosILEZiNG THE ARMY.

Almost daily large numbers of sol- diers are being brought back to this country from Europe. The putting in to use of large transports and the in creasng of the number. as well as the utilization of warships for the pur- pose of transporting the troops has resulted in speeding up the return of our fighting forces. The progress that has been made in the past few
 months has greatly changed the sit uation for we have been bringing the
 boys home during this period as rap- idly as they were taken to Europe
 at the time when every effort was bent to get as large q number of Ameri- cans in France. as time ships and money would permit
 It is quite evident therefore that we are approaching the time when the declara ton can be made that the demobilization has been accomplish ed This will not mean that each
 and every soldier has been dis
 charged. for it is to be remembered that this country maintains an army at all times and it is not to be SUD- posed that it will demobilize its forces to the point where it has none to call upon for such service as may i be required. There arc of course | may thousand troops in this country at the present time, but we are get ting to the point where those who are numbered among the extraordi-
 nary forces are getting decidedly smaller. Before the summer is ovel
 they will all be home and when they 1 have received their discharges il
 should mean that demobilization has
 been completed Just how large ar
 army will be maintained is uncertain l but in addition to getting the boys home additional interest is manifest
 ed in the matter of denobilization now

Plenty of Jobs

MT. Editor: I have seen in your paper and likewise other papers that there are great many soldiers out of work, which 1 cannot understand. There is in Norwich a man who has been in a number of cities in this and other states looking for help. He is seeking people to learn to weave in woolen mills and is willing to pay g a day while learning, but is going back to Massa chusetts with only three as the result of his tour of the state.
 Men come here from New York and Providence and get work. One boss kept a job open for a man who had been over the top, but he diin't want it, and another boss had four different men on a job in two weeks. As soon as they secured their pay they would leave. They are crying for weavers and card room help in Dayville but cannot get them and there are over a hundred looms still in Norwich for lack of help.
 Mills are willing to pay the help till they can run the looms themselves but many who take jobs do not stay no matter how good the jobs are. If men from other places can come here and get work the unemployed here can. Let them read the advertisements in the morning paper and go get them and then there would not he the 900 out Of work here.

 We have had enough of arresting around here for lights out when cars were standing under bright arc lights when nobody in the world could pos sibly be injured; Or for one light out when there is no chance of anybody getting hurt from standing autos. but there has been nothing done to abate the public nuisance who drives an au- tomoioiie with loud cut-o outs and noisy horns, enough to destroy the sleep and nerves of everybody
 A man in ah auto should run a car so that it is unnecessary for anybody to step aside CT out of his way. Let him run his car the way a human be- ing should drive it. People were here before cars and they will be aftei them, we hope, so let our police off cers watch these public nuisanees anG abate them as every other nuisance should be abated.

poem written by q "bunkie" OF his, who
lives in Louisville. and which he hand
ed to the Daily Register for publica-

But yesterday 1 left behind,
The fields that bear wars CHASTITY
traces;
And. oh. how glad I .was to sail.
Towards the land Of fairer places.
And now at port see the people,
! The buildings. traffic and the light;
And they somehow, oh, seem so good
1t almost numbs me with delight.
But now the people come up closer.
And speak Kind words to friends and
me,
And tell US how good it is to see us,
And smile on us. ali. splendidly.
We know full well that they are aiming
To make as, real our high desire;
To feel at home, and-to forght,
The pain sustained in battle fire.
But while these people. these dear
good people,
Behold us in those Earthquakes;
We. too, behold those fields again
Clear-written on their lovely faces.
