encouraging Zionist aspirations. Reports
of protests from the MOhammedan ma
tives of Palestine and from the Christians
of Syria against any plans for tie organi-
cation of their country as "Jewish State"
together with rumors of the rise of wave
of more active opposition on the part of
the natives to the endeavors of political
Zionists to buy up large domains, justify
the belief that the Peace Conference will
place Palestine under a mandatory
Power-probably Great Britain and pos
sibly the United States-and so far as
Zionism is concerned will content itself
with some mnocuous resolutions favoring
the establishment of Jewish agricultural
and industrial colonies and promising
protection to those colonies, with perhaps
local autonomy.
Political Zionists imbued with the Opt
mism and the propaganda zeal of Mr..
Sokolow will no doubt look upon such
action as the triumph of the Zionist cause
and will probably organize jubilee eele-
brations, but the more sober spirits
among them will recognizes viii the

An American NJ. D. in War

EAJOR HAROLD NJ. HAYS of the
1Vl Medical Corps of the United
States Army served three months as a
medical officer with the British Expe-
dictionary Force between November, 1917,
and February, 1918. He has described
his experiences in an extremely entertain
ing little book with the singular title,
Cheeriol This word is the British Tom
mics eolloquial equivalent for Hail and
Farewell
Cheeriol is the kind of "war book"
we used to get after the war was well IN
der way-a personal narrative Of man
new to war who was undergoing ways Of
living and of working totally different
from anything most of us knew. Much
of what Major Hays has written here,
particularly of the work Of the medical
officers in the field and of the cheerful
stoicism of the British soldier when
wounded, is now familiar. But what gives
his text distinction is his descriptions of
the personal hardships of the officers in
the mere routine of living and trying to
keep clean.
For example, here is his description Of
his method of shaving when the weather
was so cold that the only things he took
off whep he went to bed were his boots:
II adopted system of shaving in bed,
which all of them This brother offcers]
laughed at at first but adopted later on.
/ must have looked funny, for I wore a
Khaki knitted helmet over my head and
face and wrapped a plaid Irish shawl
around my shoulders which I kept IN place
with a horse blanket safety pin. The
officers called me Peary because 1 looked
like the north pole. / would lift my he'll
met off my face and in semi-sitting po-
sition get out my shaving soap, razor and
brush. My tin cup held the hot water
pretty cold by the time / got at it. I'd
lather my face, place my mirror between
my knees and, balancing myself with one
hand behind me, screw my face tight and
run the razor over it. In few days
everybody was doing it."
The narrator's induction into tea
drinking came very hard to him, but he
gradually fell into the tea habit and be-
came such an hGbitue that my stomach
rang for its tea at 4 o'clock every after
noon. I even took cup before got out
Of bed In the morning" His descriptions
Of trying to keep clean up to the British
standard, which he says is higher than
ours, are quite Elizabethan in their frank
ness He has a profound admiration for
the courtesy and kindness of the British
officers, and he tells with gusto how he
called down q bumptious American for
fadsness to his commanding officer. Par

A Serious Cloak
and Suit Novel
CGN FEET Mr.. FURNISH, Mr.. Slavon-
lFl ski, Mr.. Freund, Mr. Mayer

1V1 ski, Mr.. Freund, Mr.. Mayer
and Mr.. Rubenstein"-in Corinne loves
story of Saul. Saul is Mr., FURNISH.
The story is Potash and Perlmutter treated
dead seriously whole book full Of serge
and suede and exclusive models without a
laugh in it. The result is not exhilarat-
ing. Everything that is true, unfortu-
nately, is not exhilarating. A wOmen's
wear catalogue might be written in story
form, and it would not be interesting, al
though it might be fiction.
Saul rises from the Rivington street
tenement by the way of Winotzky's shop,
where as boy he picks rags, to be master
of his own machine and make his own
exclusive designs and have his own exclu-
sive models. How far Saul goes may be
realized when he is seen on the deck Of
the Paris bound steamer eonversing
elegantly with Faith Severance, the
beautiful buyer Miss Severance tells
Saul, ''there is something quattrocentO
about you-early Italian, you know In
fact, he suggests "a little portrait Of Bot
ticell's / always remember" She asks
Saul if he does not think that fun Il
dynamic. She is also reminded of some
thing or other about Benvenuto Ceitni.
Is it to be wondered that something
inside Saul wheeled pleasantly
But this is the nearest that the story
approaches to any dynamic fun. Saul
marries Channah, through the marriage
broker. He works hard and is honest,
and honesty even in the women's wear
trade, although it has its temporary set
backs, proves in the end to be sound
policy. Channah is great help to Saul
1t is Channah who hits upon the strange
idea of Correlation" in women's wear.
The idea is that if it is known, for ex-
ample, that skirts are to be short, shoo
manufacturers should shrewedly in
that shoes will be long or high, and {
accordingly. Whereas it had generally
been supposed that what gave piquaney
to women's styles IN shoes and skirts was
the uncertainty as to whether the twain
would ever meetl
Miss loves training for her novel has
evidently been adequate, since the ihfor-
nation IS sef-provided that at one time
she was on the advertising staff of de-
partment store and at another time edited
a weman's page. But the homely prov
erb springs to mind upon reading Sail
that you can't make a bead bag out of
pretzels.

our vision. Political Zionism, which,
through the fortuitous circumstance
that the future Of Palestine is involved in
the problems arising out of the war, looms
up at present as one OF the questions of
the day, will hardly be question of to-
morrow. There viii remain, however, the
incrustated doctrine Of orthodox Judaism
looking to a restoration of Israel as a re-
igious nation, "a kingdom of priests and
a holy people," through Divine interven-
tion-not through Peace Conference
just as orthodox Christians viii look for
ward to such a miraculous restoration as
the precursor Of the second coming of
Christ whom the Jews once rejected
and whom they viii then accept. Such
dreams will not be affected by the collapse
of political Zionism.

BARBERRY BUSH
THING OF PAST
IN ROCK ISLAND
Investigators Finish and Start on
Moline After Sentencing LOO
= Plants.

Rock Island is now officially bar
berry bushlees. and Moline and ar
senal island are to be within a
few days, was the announcement
today of j. Howard Gage, who
heads the field army for that
weeds determination in this sec
ton of the country.
In going through this city seek
ing the barberTy bush, breeder of
plant diseases which annually have
caused a great loss in the nations
wheat crop, the four men of the
commission found very little OPP
position from landhoIders. In a few
places the people whose property
they invaded to tag plants growing
there misunderstood their purpose
and taxed them with various &C
cusations; some even tried to re-
fuse them admittapce. Their work
is that of the government. however.
and the opposition was oVerruled.
The official record shows 1851
plants removed or ordered removed
II this city. which means in round
numbers 100. Many are already
out or being worked on. A guam
tity are still in but will come out.
This number of bushes is quite
capable of starting a good seasons
growth of wheat rust. In fact, if
they we're planted in a solid field,
six feet apart each way they
would occupy one and one-half
acres. 1t is necessary and particu-
larly stressed by the pecialists
conducting the campaign. that the
plants be taken out roots and all.
If they are only chopped of at,
above. or slightly below the surface
of the ground they will return just
as lively as ever next year.
