New Map Of the Void
Outlines Still Far From Perfect

We can get some idea already of
the new map of the world, though its
outlines are still far from perfect, OBJ
serves a writer in the Providence Jour-
nal. Along Germany's western from
tier Alsace-Lorraine goes uncondition-
ally to France, with the Sarre basin
also coded to her for Is years, the
mines of that region given over as par
tial indemnity to French ownership
and a plebiscite Is years hence pro-
yided for. Luxembourg is freed from
German control. Belgium gets small
area, part outright and part subject to
popular vote, and plebiscite will de-
terInine whether the inhabitants of
Schleswig prefer to be included within
Germany or Denmark for the future.
Germany viii retain nominal control
of the valley east of the Rhine, but it
is to be permanently demilitarized.
German. Austria becomes an independ-
ent state, along with the new Czeeho-
SIovakia, Jugo-Slavia and Poland.
Danzig win be free city with Polish
affiliations and Germany is forced to
recognize the new states of western
Russia.
In Africa the immense German hold
ings go to the allied and associated
powers as mandatories. Japan agrees
to return to the Picking government all
the territory on the Chinese mainland
which she has lately acquired, but will
have Tsingtao in perpetuity. The vari-
Gus German islands of the Pacific go to
Japan, Australia and New Zealand as
mandatories, which means that In all
human probability those countries VIII
be permanently installed there under
the convenient fiction Of the league or
nations language. Even the German
slice Of the Antarctic continent Is to
be yielded to the entente. VIII It be
necessary to give anyone mandate
for this frigid and uninhabited regions
There are still SO many details TO De
worked out that 1t may be some time
before the authentic new aliases can
be issued.

HIS CRUTCH

He hobbies down the quiet street,
A youthful veteran
Whose heart is still attuned unto
The drums wild rataplan,
Whose ears are deafened even yet
By battles dread alarm,
Whose hating step depends upon
The crutch beneath his arm.
His good right leg is gone-afar
In Flanders mud 1t lies,
But there's a smile upon his lips,
sFor still Old Glory flies.
And though a slow and painful gait
His mundane progress mars,
Behold his spirit vaults. the clouds
And strides among the stars.
Washington's sword and Franklin's stan
And Lincoln's pen shall be
Embossed forevermore upon
The shield of Liberty:
And 10! the doughboy's battered crutch,
Through Times eternal fight,
VIII stand a signpost on the road
To Freedoms mountain height.

Great Bodies Of Water Not
CIassed Under "Seven" Seas

sWhat are the seven seasY
subscriber asks. and adds: II can find
no explanation about them In cyclic
pedias or dictionaries" There Is in
deed a great paucity Of Information
about this familiar expression, which
Is the title Of one of Kipling's books.
A note, however, in the Oxford Eng
lisn Dictionary under seven reads:
aThe Seven seas--the Arctic. Ant
arctic, North and South Pacific. North
and South Atlantic, and Indian
oceans Curiously, this dictionary
does not mention the seven seas under
the word seas but gives instead
s.the four seas-thc seas bounding
Great Britain on the four sides. -

SAVING OF IMPROVED ROADS
Report Of Congressional Committee
Shows Cents Per Ton Per Mile
Can BE Saved.

The report Of the joint congressional
committee which investigated high
way economics in 1914 shows that a
saving of cents per ton mile can be
effected in transportation costs when
road is lifted from the dirt to the
durable class. This does not take in
to account increased real estate yalua-
ton or social advantages resulting
from the Improvement.
