Hun Captives Are Oxlike.

Once through Templeaux and on
the main road for Peronne things be-
came less exciting and we drew up
to see column Of 900 prisoners pass
us. Each side of the causeway was
lined by Australians, with their keen,
clear-cut, falcon faces, and between
lurched these heavy-jawed, beetle
proved, uncouth louis, new-caught and
staring round with bewildered eyes at
their debonnaire captors: I saw none
of that relief at getting out Of it
which I have read of; nor did I see
any signs Of fear, but the prevailing
impression was an oxlike stolidity and
dullness. 1t was herd of beasts, not
a procession of men. 1t was indeed
farccal to think that these uniformed
pumpkins represented the great mill
tary nation, while the gallant figures
who lined the road belonged to the
race which they had deSpised as be-
ing unwarlike. Time and Fate be-
tween them have pretty sense of hu'

WOMEN POLICE MAKE GOOD"
Abundant Testimony as to Splendid
Work They Have Done In Eng

How England's women police have
developed into real force for the

atty has appeared in the report Of
Miss Goldingham, deputy comman-
dant of the women police service, at a
meeting in Richmond, where the es-
Enlistment of such = force was under
discussion.
She said that these forces had been
formed from voluntary workers early
in the war, as means Of helping
refugees and young English girls and
boys who were in need Of aid or adj
vice. In three and half years 1000
women have been trained for the
work and have found appointments.
At present women are policing 20
muniticn factories, where they per-
form all the duties, practically, that
could be expected Of masculine police.
The womens police service has also
supplied police for IS towns, in four

Sleeping Sickness Came From
Enqldnd, FOHOWS Flu" Attack

disease was at first confused with
botulism, the new val disease, re-
sulting from food poisoning which
was prevalent in England. Investiga-
ton by the health authorities of Lon
don and Sheffield proved, however,
that sleeping sickness and botuliSm
were not the same.
Then they thought it might be in
fantile paralysis. Sir Arthur News
holme, medical officer of London,
finally decided hat epidemic somno-
lence' was a brand new war disease.
1t was made a ''reportable" disease.
the epidemic stopped so sud-
denly that the investigation was car
ried no farther.
But Sir Arthur Newsholme gave it
as his opinion that the epidemic had
esulted from the general breaking
down of the physical resistance of
the English people caused by the flu.
The sleeping sickness" germ, he
said. was harmless to any person of
good vitality, but when that vitality
was weakened by the influenza, his
body made an excellent field for the
parasite to work in.
We blamed the flu on the Huns
and if you like you can blame the
sleeping sickness on them too. For,
according TO all records, it first broke
out in Vienna in 1917. and it was a

mo, who CAV its scientific name OF

{President of the National Constr
ton InduStrieS)


The American construction indus
try employs more labor than any
other field except agriculture. 1t pro-
duces annually about three thousand
million dollars worth of wealth, tax
paying property. A shortage in this
production increases the cost of liV-
ing.
The industry is halting. Those en-
gagged in it are deeply concerned with
q return to normal conditions.
During the period of rcconstruc-
tion it is primarily necessary that all
idle labor and material be engaged
for the future use of the nation. Here
are some of the thoughts briefly
stated which industry has to advance.
1t is estimated that the accumula-
tions of savings banks and insurance
companies during the war amount to
from three to five thousand million
dollars, and that these, if invested,
would make good our impaired con-
struction facilities.
The BODYBUILDING Of the country
could be greatly facilitated by the
creation of a home loan bank, similar
to the New York Land Bank, which
would permit borrowing by the Build
ing and Loan Associations at a low
rate of interest upon their securities,
which moun TO about two thousand
million dollars, making these availa-
Bile to the home-builders throughout
the United States.
Buildings Cost Up 2S.5 Per Cent.
Building labor throughout the
United States is said to have ad-
vanced in cost an average of 2S.5 per
cent. during the war period. 1t is
possible to reduce labor cost by the
elimination of the jurisdictional
strike. 1t is estimated that 95 per
cent. of all strikes in construction

That's the decision reached by the

The United States Public Health
