cities Of France would be the first to-
seize upon the opportunity which an
American army uniform would offer for
ingratiating themselves into positions
where robberies and other crimes could
be committed They would know that
the French people, feeling a strong tide
of affection for the AmeBcan soldiers
whose timely arrival had saved Paris
from capture and the allies from impend
ing defeat and humiliation, would gladly
welcome persons wearing the American
khaki and would leave both themselves
and their property more or less unguard-
ed; so these "apaches" of the underworld
have probably donned the Khaki of the
American soldier whenever such a course
was possible and, thus adorned, have left
upper world of Paris and the other
French cities Wearing the khaki, they
have found their way into places where
admission would have been denied them
in other habiliments and thus ensconced
they have been enabled to 90 about their
careers of crime wholly unsupported I'M
til such time as the signs of the crimes
became apparent. In consequence there
has been a great cutlery concerning the
commission of crimes by American sol
diers which has served to bring the whole
American army into some disrepute in
France and has brought chagrin to the
people of the United States But the
explanation about the impostors who are
masquerading in American khaki serves
to clear away some Of the ignominy that
has come upon the United States through
the acts of violence. We do not consider,
however, that the American army sent to
France was made up wholly of right
went to France to save the world for
democracy were not criminally inclined !
Therefore, we do not endeavor to explain
away all the wave of crime in France
which is charged to American soldiers. |
No doubt there are many American sol |
diers who have been guilty of the crimes
attributed to them; but the American
army as a whole is entirely above sus-
picion and it is unfortunate that it must
suffer for the sins of the few who we're
once with the army.

Much as one may scof at the ground
hog prophecy of the length of the winter
season, one nevertheless is apt to take
observation on Candlemas day to learn
if shadows are visible and if, therefore,
the suppositious grounding is throwing
a shadow that day, for, as the prophecy
goes, the grounding, seeing his shadow
on Feb. ,, dives back into his winter
quarters for a prolonged Information. No
one really places much stock in the
grounding prophecy on Feb. 2, yet, whim-
sieally, nearly everyone is inclined to
speculate on the possibility Of the length
of winter in this northern cline and 80
anything which lends to that specula-
ton is welcomed even if surreptitiously.
So many people-perhaps the majority
who recall that tomorrow is Candlemas
day-will cast a weather eye over the
surrounding territory to note whether
shadows cast their gloomy lines over the
landscape. Shadows, in the interpreta-
tion of the grounding, mean that the
coal bin should be still half full, or
that the woodpile should not have been
depleted much more than one-haIf, In
cidentally, it might be added that coal.
bin half full and woodpile not more
than half gone is a comforting thought
at this period of the winter

DIsH0NORING THE AMERICAN UNI.
FORM.

A measure of truth probably attaches
to the cabled report coming from Paris
that a part of the crimes and misdemean-
ors attributed to American soldiers in
Paris and other cities of France were
really perpetrated by "apaehes" of all ma
lions who were masquerading in the uni
forms of American soldiers, although it
ie not just apparent how so many of them
could be clothed in the khaki of the Unit
ed States unless deliberate efforts at
tailoring had made them in the sem
blance of American soldiers. It is not
probable that the scum of the large cities
of France would have the necessary cap
ital to permit them to consult tailors and
have special garments made for the pur-
pose Of robbery so that phase of the ex-
PLANTATION advanced to account for the
large number Of crimes charged to Amer
lean soldiers will have to be passed over
unsolved.
But it is easily possible that the whole.
sale charges of crimes brought against
American soldiers were not deserved and
ought to be cleared up. The subtle Grim.

AND MEN WEARING
YANKEE PAJAMAS

Tirana, Albania.-Thousan OF
Albanian men and women are now
proudly wearing American pajamas
J day and night When the Amer
ican Red Cross representatives
came to Albania the people were
clothed in rags and tatters
Miles and miles of unbleached
muslin sent to Albania by the
American people have been cut up
by native women in the Red Cross
workshops and madc into gar
ments. In one of these workshops
an American girl retains as a SOU
venir the blouse of an Albanian
who now sports American pajamas
This shirt is composed of 2S7
scraps of cloth and like the average
collection of rags worn by Alban-
fans looks like an old fashioned
American crazy guilt.
American women are conducting
welfare classes among the Alban-
ian children. teaching them Eng
l,sh. hygiene, providing them with
q special diet and clothing them
The little victims of the war also
are being taught American games
and how to play, an art they seem
to have lost.
