Woman Models Copper Faces

Leaves of ivy dance over the high, old stone walls of the court yard in front of her house and you have to climb five l flights of winding wooden stairs to get | to her studio. And when you get there soldiers sitting around chatting or drink ing tea, says Grace Boulder, in an illus trated article in the Popular Mechanics magaz inc. One or two of them will have bandages over their faces, or horrible face mutilations. But the others will seem perfectly sound and whole When Mrs. Ladd-Mrs. Anna Coleman Ladd she is-comes forward to greet you, she will probably be carrying what looks for all the world like a human nose, or
 part of mans cheek, or maybe it will be an ear. And she handles it quite uncon- cernedly as she goes on talking with you. For in the time she has been in Paris she has made parts of faces for T muti1ated soldiers.
 She tells you to look at the man in the corner-the one passing cakes to his companions. You observe rather hand some black-haired boy, with decoration pinned on his blue soldiers blouse. And Mrs. Ladd tells you that his nose and mustache, as well as part of his cheek. are artificial. He will take the mask off if you want him to, she announces, but you beg to be excused from witnessing lit.
 "Oh, they are just as proud as tI,y can
 be of their new faces. All these men
 would show you their masks in a minute and be glad to- she will tell you. Mrs. Ladd was sculptor in Boston be- fore she took up this work for the Red Cross. She first models the maimed face. Then she makes a mask of the face as it was before the wound. Most frequently she does this from a photo-
 graph. The mask itself is made from thin copper. This is afterward tinted with
 the most delicate of water coloring, pro
 cess requiring the most exact and care
 ful work because the mask must match
 perfectly the skin of the face. These
 artificial face parts are usually held in
 place by means of a string matching
 the color of the hair and worn over the
 back of the head.

Our Fighting Families.

Bassett Blaclxley, in Leslie's.
 ''The Smiths will win the war; never appeared on poster during the conflict Food, airplanes. propaganda and other agencies all were offered at some time as the balance of power but the claims of the Smith family were overlooked. They were ready for the fight. however. 51,000 strong. An army by themselves were the Smiths who joined the colors. They outdistaneed all competitors for the first honors, for the Johnson family only sent 5000 members to the conflict The Jones boys numbered a mere 22,500, run ming even with their rivals, the Greens. Americas s other prolific family the Browns, sent 5000 men to fight for Uncle Sam. The American melting pot also turned out 4500 Cohens to help chase the Hun back of the Hindenburg line. In addition to these armies, there were enough bearers of military names to frighten an enemy that had studied American history. No less than "A George Washingtons were in the ranks; two Ulysses s. Grants, and five more with out the middle initial, and 79 Robert E. Lees.

We Got the News

From Peace by Publicity" by David Lawrence, in the Scribner.
 All the peace delegations read news papers with avidity. Moreover, the American mission received every day cabled summary of what the newspapers of the United States said editorally-a gro and con assortment. Also the Amer ican delegates were apprised by telegraph or wireless daily of what was being said in the leading editorials in Switzerland, Holland. Spain and the Scandinavian countries, as we'll as in the newspapers of China Japan and Latin America. Pro- tests from the peopA were bound to be
 heard that way. It is no reflection on previous conferences in world history to say that no meeting of diplomats fol- lowed public opinion as closely as did the gathering at Paris this year. Facil- ities for such a study of world opinion were not available 100 years ago. Cable. telegraph, wireless have brought peoples together only in recent years, and means of news communication have been par ticularly advanced by the great war. But the facilities themselves would have been of little consequence if the delega- tions had not felt inclined to use them to keep abreast of public opinion. No doubt the precedent established at the preliminary sessions in Paris or the league of victors will become the basis for action at the future meetings of the League of Nations, or the international secretariat which is designed as a clear ing house for the foreign affairs of all | nations. Notes, petitions, protests and representations of every sort will come
 to the seat of the League of Nations. Publicity will be theS important factor behind them all. If they can be pigeon holed, they will avail little to the cause of international reconciliation. But at

YACHT
 IS COMING HOME

Brest, France. May 15.---The United States wa-ship Piqua, one of the 1arg- est converted yachts sent to France in June, 1917. for convoy duty, Is expected to return to her home port, New York. sometime in June
 The Piqua was formerly the Kama wha II. owned by the late IT. H Rogers. She was purchased from Mir. Rogers by Lieut.. Com. John Borden and presented by him to the government. Lieutenant Commander Borden served aboard in foreign waters for over IS months.
 The Piqua was one of the fastest yachts in the famous Brittany patrol' and conveyed many thousands of troops safely into French ports during those early days of 1917, before the destroy CTS had arrived for duty on the coast of France. She is credited with one submarine. She is in command of Lieut.. Grant T. Stephenson.

Better Packages War Brougbt

Call this low-spoken, earnest eXnletive "Oh, fudgei" if you will In civilian life the latter usually suffices. It is not the way men talk at a. m in the firing bays, with the big push against the Ger mans due at SIS, zero hour-and the hand grenade boxes for the whole pla- toon still tightly nailed, says Brandon Tracy in the Popular Mechanics maga- zine. What Eugene Field called "virile Anglo-Saxon that would never do in print is tried out and usually found wanting.
 In this particular instance men were re- quired to open and unpack grenade boxes, distributing the contents amone the bombers and do it all without arous- ing the suspicion of Fritz's sentinels, 60 yards away. One squeak of rusty nail being drawn, and the attack would fail in all probability.
 The boxes never were opened that day Though a dozen men sweated and swore because the work had not been done earlier,N there was no chance of accom- plishing it without noise. The platoon went over' with practically no bombs at all. report of this incident came back through official channels, and the Forest Products Laboratory, at Madison, Wis, was given the problem of designing pack ing cases for ammunition that could be opened anywhere on the road to Berlin without disturbing the most suspicious Boche. Immediately two designs of boxes were presented. The first had bolt and screw end constructions; when the screws were removed the end came off noiseless- ly, revealing the contents. The second was of slightly stronger design, intended for heavier contents. No nails or bolts were used; the top dovetailed with the edges and was held down by two tight strips of iron sheeting passing entirely around the box. Noiseless clippers for this sheeting made it possible to unpack

this box anywhere, and its strength could be depended upon. The two designs were adopted at once, and used for the du- ration of the war. Col. D. W. Dunne, chief inspector of the bureau of explosives declared that it was his belief that at the present time all industry which is depen- dent upon containers made of wood, pa per or fibre for shipping, is losing from 25 per cent to 5o per cent of the cost of that shipping through lack of knowl- edge which now is possessed by forest products experts. He stated that saving of full third could be made on all pack age shipping, whether domestic or ex- port, simply by redesigning the contain CTS to make them more economical of space and wood, and at the same time stronger for the protection of their con tents

Reveille sounded A moment later the shrill whistle of the top sergeant blew.
 Fall out, there, men, if you want any breakfast We move at $ o'clock" he said, as he passed down the aisle of the long French barracks, jerking the blan- kets from off the sleeping men.
 It was f O clock in the morning of De- cember ?, 1917. Every man who was with the 167th infantry in France at that time will remember that morning as long as he lives It was the morning of the begin ming of the three-day hike" through the snow to Marac. We had been at Uruff, just back of verdun, for nearly a month, when orders came that the French were expecting to begin active op- erations there and that it were best that we go to the rear for further training We had made two days of a five days hike before Christmas, and were to fin- ish the remaining three.
 Quickly we put on our clothing and hurried outside where the men were forming a long line around the mess pots'' each receiving his small portion for breakfast and a light lunch for dln- uer. It was dark outside and showing hard. Almost six inches of snow had fallen since the evening before.
 Six o'clock came. Day was breaking and it was still showing. seemingly harder than before. The men assembled in the road outside the barracks and, at the given signal, the long column of heavily loaded men moved forward.
 All day we plodded along the road and it never ceased showing an instant. Two battalions of the regiment were ahead ot us and, walking upon the freshly fallen snow, they packed it as hard as ice, so that we of the rear battalion had great difficulty in maintaining our balance and also keep moving.
 The first night we billeted in a small French village. The peasants had all congregated in the town square to greet us. Several of the school children had studied English and could speak a few words of our language. They led us to their teacher beautiful, blue-eyed mademoiselle, who could speak English fluently. We enjoyed ourselves talking to her and were learning quite a few French idioms until the officers discov- cred her. Then they monopolized every thing.
 Three days the long column of weary men crept along the road, blowing its way through the snow which was then almost knee deep and getting deeper all the while, for it had never ceased snow ing from the day that we had started. Every night we were rorced. after we had reached our destination, to mark time" in the snow until the cooks got supper ready. Then, too. it was always cold when we got it, for even coffee, boiling hot, would cool in E minutes after the pot was set on the ground.

Copenhagen. May 16.-A Dane who has just returned from Russia has told the Derlingske Tidene that bolshevism was dead and that a catastrophe was to be expected any moment in Petro- grad and Moscow. When this took place. he said, there would be abso- lute anarchy and scenes of lawlessness would exceed the past.
