Foch ]Ex-College Professor

Like President Wilson. General Foch was a college professor before the war. according to Howard Wheeler, who tells us in EVerybody's that -"Foch taught military strategy, to be sure, but he was a teacher, a theorist, and when he became q commander in actual war. he did not drop his theories. He practiced them. Many of the leaders under him had been his students. He called upon them to do in the field in the face of a savage, clever enemey, what he had asked them to recite in the academy. One of his staff, Colonel Requin. told laughingly one day how some of these other generals, practical men, were shocked at orders he took to them from Foch.
 "It was a common experience of mine,' he said, to take an order to a division commander in the very crisis of fight, directing him to perform at once a well studied, typical maneu- yer The troubled, busy general would take the order. read and reread the clean, careful writing, and then turn to me and eNclaim: Impossiblei Why, that would be hard enough to do in maneuvers but in battle Here? Now My God it is impossible!"
 "The general, of course, would per form the moVement mechanically, un- der fire. And said Colonel Requin. when he tried it, it worked out. And it was those things that won the bat tie that won the war"

CHANNEL TUNNEL IS SECOND ONLY ID THE PANAMA CANAL JOB
Can Be Completed in Five and a Half Years and Cost About One Hundred
 Million Dollars
RN AsSnriatrd PrnsS

London. March 13.-Intense interest las been aroused by the governments announcement that the long projected tunnel under the English channel to connect England and France is soon to De constructed. The cost of the en- terprise is roughly estimated at $10O,- 100000 Some say the tunnel could be completed in 51s years.
 A commission in Paris which has been discussing this project also is con sidering the building of tunnel under the Bosphorus connecting Europe with Asia and one from Gibraltar connecting Europe with Africa.
 The English Channel Tunnel com pany already has done vast amount of work in anticipation of the re- sumption of actual construction of the tunnel to France. Engineering plans are said to be so far advanced that the work could begin at once.
 With the exception of athe Panama canal it will be the biggest engineer ing enterprise of modern times. The eotal length, including approaches in England and France, will be 32 miles, with more than 2115 miles of it under the sea. The plans provide for two tunnels, each IS feet in diameter, con nected by cross gallaries at intervals of 200 yards The maximum depth of water on the route is 180 feet, and a cover of chalk about 100 feet thick would be left undisturbed above the crown of the tunnel to provide against danger from enemy attack with sub- marine explosives The tunnels levels below the sea thus will be about 2SO feet.
 Iron tubes will be built as the tun- mel advances. The extraordinary ad- vance made in tunneling in recent years, especially in the United States will enable the engineers to proceed with great speed. The railway lines will be operated by electricity as in the case of the Simplon tunnel under the Swiss mountain of that name, and which is 121s miles in length, the longesA at present in the world.
 Before the war the quickest service from London to Paris was in six hours and 45 minutes. With the tunnel the

DENTIST |MPOSTERS
 TH|CK { IN ENGLAND
Americans Try to Get Laws Standardiz zing Practice the
 Same as Medicine
By Associated Press

London, March 12.-Butchers, drillers and turner's are practicing dentistry in England. The only restriction, aside from possible damage suits, is that the "oper- ator'', does not call himself dentist or dental practitioner" It is unnecessary to register and any one may start in the business.
 This condition with it's resultant health injuries has lon|g been discussed in med ical organizations without remedy, but at last it has been investigated by a government conlmittee The whole sys- tenn is criticized and the many American dentists in London are hopeful that Par liament will std andardize the practice of dentistry as it has medicine, and at the same time recognize dentistry as a pro- fession. There is no such recognition now.
 Some of the American dentists in Lon don enjoy an exclusive clientele, but the reputation of the United States for good dentistry has been seized upon by unqual- flied persons in their flamboyant adver- tisements. They may advertise Amer ican dentistry and escape the technicali- ties of the 1aw by not using the word
 dentists"
 The departmental committee of the den tists' act shows how the Operators work. One had 20 canvassers, some or whom carried their tools with them so they could "opetate" at the home of the victim. Another made a speciality of cor recting the front teeth of young women, usually munition workers with newly found wealth. The system was to ex- tract or saw off the objectionable teeth and fit new ones.
 Large profits are made and there IS a constant flow of recruits to the rank of unqualified operators, while the number of licensed dentists has not increased in 1j years. The committees principal rec concentrations are:

journey could be made in six hours, whatever the weather.
 Speaking of the problems of build ing the tunnel, English engineers say the sea itself offers no difficulty, that the only risks lies in the geological formations. The first layer under the channel is white chalk and beneath this is a belt of gray chalk some 300 feet thick. The great question is whether the gray chalk is impervious to water.
 The exact points for starting the tunnel have not been determined, but expert opinion favors a spot just be- hind Dover, and. in France a point close to Cape Grisnez
 The tunnel will be capable of han ding 30,000 passengers and S0,000 tons of goods each way in 24 hours Ordi- nary railway rolling stock, including sleeping and dining cars, will be able to use the route.
