That the pupils of the Chitina school, Miss Geneva Sheets, teacher, are inspired fully by the spirit of conservation is evidenced by the fact that, during the month of October they collected stray pieces of boards and wood and built a Hoover woodpile, the material so collected being used to supply fire wood for the schoolroom stove, thus saving coal and at the same time reducing the general expenses of the school district

CRITICISM

It was not necessary, says the Cincinnati Enquirer, to have lived very long or to have grown over wise, to know that the moment the war was closed the floodgates of criticism would be opened. And so, indeed, they have been. It would seem, when reading the current de- nunciation of men and measures, as if nothing about the conduct of the war had been either wise or right. One writer declares that the Pres- dent is only going to Europe to re ceive the adulations of subser- vient world. This one suspected the government having possessed the knowledge of the Russian situ- ation which it withheld from the people. That one derides the selec- tion of the delegates to the peace conference and grumbles because his favorites have not been chosen. Two reporters for American papers have now the publicity they craved by spreading before the readers of metropolitan. journals the sensa- tional stories of bitter unquench- able antagonisms among the Allies. Here is furious denunciation of the taking over of the cable lines, and there of the appointment of press committte to give us the news about the doings of the congress which will settle the terms of peace.
 This is a state of affairs as dis agreeable as it is inevitable. We have been experiencing the unusual joy of national unanimity. All minor offenses were sunk in the single purpose of winning the war. Everybody was in agreement with everybody else We were absolutely certain when we met with strangers friends or enemies, even. that upon one question at least there would not be the slightest disputation With regard to the war, our hearts would certainly beat as one.
 It will all be different now. We have entered upon period of criticism; or divided and hostile opinion; of bitter and antagonistic judgments, and it is curious and disagreeable paradox that war should have brought us an intellectual peace, while peace is about to ex- cite an intellectual war. We be- lieve in the mission of criticism, if it is constructive. Few other lessons have been carved more deeply on our minds than that which Michael Angelo taught group of friends who saw him give to defective drawing of RaphaeIs a juster pro- portion by quietly enlarging a human head with crayon. w criti- cize by creation; not by finding fault" he said.

SECRETS OF THE. WAR

Secrets of the war work of th British Secret Service now re veaed show that German spies O. agents Of the German governmen were making active preparations even before the beginning of hos tiities, to use the Isle of Wigh as a landing place for German fore es and for the bomhardment ot Portsmouth. One of the first pre- cautions taken in August, 1914, was to place close restrictions on per sons trying to land upon or leave the island. From Harwich to Hamp- shire, along the south and south east coasts of England, nests of German spies and agents were en- gagged in desperate missions, in the early days of the war. One of the urgent tasks of the British Secret Service was to stamp out the oper- atons of these men.
 For long time, says an Asso- cated Press correspondent, writing from London, the authorities were unable to discover the origin of Morse signals that were being flash ed out to German submarines from the seafront at Pevenscy. Special watch was kept on a certain cot tage and. although no lights were shown. the patient observers finally solved the mystery. They learned that after dusk several persons near an upper window manipulated what appeared to be the dial of an ordinary clock. A raid on the cot tage disclosed that the clock dial was fitted with a dark prism. By focusing the prism on the strong headlight of fishing smack an chored off shore it was possible to send forth signal flashes. These flashes were not visible to a person standing on the beach, but out in the channel they could be read easily.
 Between the coast and Tunbridge Wells, which was the headquarters of a British army corps, a band of yypsies made the rounds of villages undisturbed until an officer made the significant discovery that none of them could converse in Romany the gypsy tongue. Investigation by secret service men proved con clusively that the masqueraders while pretending to trade with the country folk and tell fortunes, SC cured important information as tc the movement of troops in the Southern command. Prompt an( drastic action followed these re velations.
 At the beginning of the war mum erous instances came to light ot aliens attempting to enlist under false pretenses. If the recruiting officers were dissatisfied with ; mans appearance or accent, he wal taken aside and the oath was ad ministered to him separately. It i practically impossible for foreign CT to repeat the unusual phrasins of the oath without betraying hi origin, and in that way many dan gerous spies were captured.
 About Christmas, 1914, foreign dipi,-nat in London received al {, 'onymous gift of pate de foi' .sas. Suspicion was aroused ant alalysis showed the presence of tie; lily 'oison. Secret service me, were called n and they proceede, to wu K on lle theory that the pat de fo' graa had come from one o three aliens hen under surveillance Accor6i ing,r, to each of them wa sent anonymously can of fot gras exactly similar in appearance to the can containing the poisone, stuff.
