i Ill of the girls go about their work in
a business-like way, and SEINE entirely
unconscious OF their sex. Recently
there has been a disposition on the
part of stnid Britons to write letters
to the editors OF the daily papers,
urging that girls be relieved from their
work as bus conductors on the ground
that such hard, unsuitable work was
robbing them of their femininity. As
soon as the army is demObilized the
girls will be replaced by men conduct
ors, but in the meantime the general
public is disposed to think that the
girls are all right, as they undoubted-
ly are.
BRITISH WOMEN ARE
INvETERATE SMOKERS.
Cigaret smoking has become very
common practice among English girls
and women since the outbreak OF the
war, and in any smart restaurant or
hotel dining room the girls who are
not sen putting away at after-dinner
cigarets are in the minority. Out OF
say fifty girls or women, one may
count about five who are not smoking.
Common as the practice has become,
the stranger gets an occasional start
when he sees a bright-eyed young
woman in nun-like costume of dark
blue smoking = cigaret in hotel lob
by On inquiry he finds that she is a
nurse.
The problem of feminine unemploy-
I1ent has become an interesting one
since the cessation of hostilities shut
down many munition plants. 1t is es-
timated that between 100000 and 20O,-
600 women workers are now idle in
Great Britain from the cause referred
to, and the government is paying them
millions in unemployment benefits. A
large proportion Of these women were
formerly employed in laundries or in
domestic service, but hey do not wish
to go back. So, while laundries and
housewives are begging for help they
are allowed to beg in vain, while the
women wait for the government to
find jobs for them in factories.
The Northcliffe papers, which are
always, up to something or other, are
now scolding the government for its
slowness in demobilizing the army.
This is popular crusade, as the sol
diers wish to get home, and their fam
lilies and old employers want them
peace has not yet been signed and the
Hun may need further attention before
he is willing to stay put, but this rath-
err reasonable plea fails to convince
the restless ones.

and seven cents mile. There are nc
day trains at all between London and
Edinburgh on Sunday. and so many
other Sunday trains have been cut
OF on various lines that one is hardly
able to get about at all except on
week days. Sleeping car accommoda.

limited are they.
One sees no soliciting for public
funds on the streets When the writer
left New York in the middle of De.
cember, constant efforts were being
made to raise money for relief funds
OF various sorts, all Of course praise
worthy and entitled to consideration.
My conclusion may be superficial, but
1t would appear that Americans are
much more energetic in the way OF
providing entertainment and relief for
men In the service.
FEW FLAGS SEEN
IN BRITISH CAPITAL.
Ever since America entered the war
the streets in New York and other
large American cities have been bright
with the national colors and with the
flags of all the allies. Such decora-
tons are almost totally lacking in
London. When President Wilson Wis
tied in England he was greeted with a
fine display of flags, American and
British. but they were taken down
when he left All of which is further
evidence CT the tempermental differ
ences between the British people, Sc
date and undemonstrative, and the
Americans, who like to give express
sion to high spirits and enthusiasm.
Transportation is still cheap in Lon
don, although curtailed on account of
the shortage of men. An average
ride in bus costs one or two pen
MES. A taxi ride from one point to
another in the central part of the city
costs not more than a shilling and
two pence or shilling and sixpence,
or from thirty to forty cents. The
taxicab drivers are courteous and
pleasant, and the good and cheap serv-
ice they give discourages the visitor
from walking about and hunting the
places he wishes to find.
Girls in uniform, clad in trousers
or very short skirts, are to be seen
everywhere. and the interesting garb
which Immediately arrests the atten-
ton of strangers, passes absolutely
without notice among the townspeople,
who of course became accustomed to
it long ago. These girls serve as bus
conductors, Royal Air Force assist
ants, Wacks, window washers, messen-
gers. ambulance drivers, and in num-
Der of other capacities. 1t is COM

FOUNTAIN CITY
AGAIN WINNER

FOUNTAIN CITY, Ind, Feb C.
Hagerstown high school basketballers
were defeated by the Fountain City
quintet in fast and rough game here
last night, 51-21.
The game was exceedingly rough,
three HagerStOwn men being put out
of the game on personal fouls and one
man on the Fountain City team was
given the "hooks" in the same way.
Team work was the feature of the
game, Fountain City playing all
around Hagerstown and showing some
very clever pass work.
Hagerstown players thought that
they could win the game by pulling
rough stuff" but after three of them
were put on the bench they quieted
down and acted more gentle.
In the curtain raiser game the Foun-
tain City second team won from the
Whitewater seconds, 23-9 in an easy
game.

Opposition to Dog Tax Bill.

There will be much opposition to the
Kandutsch bill offered at this session
of the legislature for taxing dogs. The
measure provides for 81 annual tax
on males and 81 tax on females. The
bill has the backing of the Wisconsin
Sheep Growers association, which
claims that many sheep are killed by
dogs. Under the terms of the bill, the
license money collected in each coun,
ty would be used to pay a farmer who
had suffered damage by dogs. The
bill has been before several recent ses.
sions of the legislature.
