KAROLYI URGES
INVESTIGATION
OF WAR BLAME
Asks Responsibility Set for
Outrages Committed by
Central Powers.

BASLE. Switzerland, Feb. IA
full investigation of responsibility for
the continuance of Hungary's partici-
patton in the war and also concerning
"cruelties and barbarities committed
in Serbia, Belgium and France. the
ruthless submarine war, the inhuman
war in the air and the use of gases
and bombs" were demanded by Count
Karolyi, the president Of Hungary, to-
day at a meeting of the Hungarian
constituent assembly, according to q
dispatch from Buda Pest.
Count Karolyi said he had always
agreed with President Wilson that the
only durable peace possible Is one
based on the right of self-determina-
ton and understanding between the
peoples. He added:
THAT is why President Wilson will
remain the greatest historic figure Of
the epoch, for he was the first seismo-
grapher of the terrestrial globe who
brought about the collapse of the anci-
ent organization of the world to build
a new one in its place. The new
spirit will abolish forever, not only
trenches, but also tariff frontiers"
Count Karolyi said he was conf
dent of the victory of the teachings
of President Wilson because the presi-
dent was supported by true democrats
in all countries.

Of American Red Cross hospital No. q
Paris. in a letter to his parents. Mr.

Fourteenth street.
| Morgan writes that although they

cook"
$50 have the pantry well stocked
from now on because I'm going to
make good use of it one of these days.
Have not weighed myself since
arrived here, but know ! must weigh
at least 40. and never felt better In
all my life. I was asked yesterday
to give wounded fellow some blood,
and did. They took 800 C. C. from me,
but it didn't hurt a bit. When they
finished had never before been. SO
hungry, and though it was two hours
before dinner got something to eat
anyway. I got "a hours off for doing
it and so went to show in the after
noon and spent the rest of the time
in bed.
"The other night couple Of nurses
who had been visiting up front came
in and asked me to help them carry
their souvenirs up stairs. They had
five big sacks full of shells. I think
by the way packed things up stairs
there would be nothing left at the
front but big mud hole, if they Wis
tied it many more times. They said
thew wara going tn Use the shells for

Valentines MAKE
FIGHTERS HAPPY

Cupid with his bow and arrow and
pretty red hearts with messages of
love will make Richmond Jacks" and
"Yanks" happy this year. Hundreds
Of them are travelling on their way to
camps in this country and others are
going far and wide to Somewhere in
Germany
Beau Brummels" are investing in
red satin hearts filled with all kinds
of sweets to send to their sweethearts
while others say their message in
flowers.
Many pretty Valentine parties and
dances are being given. CONNECTION.
ers are having an unusual demand for
Valentine dainties in ice cream and
candies, they say.
Merchants selling Valentines and
decorations bought lightly on such
things last year because it was doubt
full whether or not the war would be
over. They gave their orders in the
summer. So they are not carrying as
large stock as in former years and
some of them say they are not going to
have enough to supply the demand.

Don't dance any Of those silly fox trot

And the dutiful daughter spends an
unhappy but tense evening in the

come, uplifting, strains of dreamy
waltz.
Then she floats into the dancing
ring. Shirkitt FLOATS out of single

FIND Use FOR
FLANDERS MUD
Omitted Press

ROULERS, Belgium, Dec. %
Flanders mud, the bane of all the
armies that operated in Belgium, is OF
some use after all.
Lime is practically unobtainable in
Belgium today and in many OF the
ruined villages, the refugees are lay
ing stones and bricks with mud for
temporary shelter against the coming
winter. Others fill the chinks in their
chimneys and walls with it, and al
together it is becoming as much OF
comfot to the refugees as it was a
handicap to the soldiers who lived in
it for months.
At Dixmude there is little, low,
cave-like building, made OF stones from
the old pretentlous city wall. They
arc laid in the red mud of the nearby
battlefelds and over the top of it are
arched pieces of sheet iron from the
British dugouts. In this little build
ing, containing three tiny rooms, the
affairs of the city are carried on; in
one room an architect is at work on
estimates of damage done to public
buildings in the city. In another room
the fortnightly supply Of coal is issued
and another room contains cloth, shoes
blankets and other articles which the
Americans have supplied.
The mayor is bv far the busiest mar
in town, divides his time between pub
lie affairs, weighing out coal, dis
tributing supplies and cleaning mortar
off of old bricks from the ruin of hi:
house. Ell is laying these in mud too
for his winters shelter. H is eXampl,
Is being widely followed in Dixmud'
and surrounding villages.

LONDON, Dec. 26.-These be weird
and wonderful days and you never
know whether the man in the store is
there to sell you socks or to save your
soul.
Our parsons are giving up 1he
church as livelihood and taking up
positions as statesmen. Their anxiety
for our spiritual welfare hovers in
the background as ''hobby."
One is really nervous these days to
walk up and ask for a pair OF silk
stockings. Maybe that nice-looking
yaung assistant behind the counter
will preach you sermon on the
stockings unrighteousness and send
you away clutching parcel of home
knittedwoolens which you'll never
wear, or making vows of eteranl
homespun which you'll never keep.
It's very difficult. OF course, it's
not that we don't like parsons-we
/ just dote on them in the pulpit but
the people don't pay enough to keep
them there. And it is narrowing to
think that some of those curates who
/ tell you such soulful things every Sun
udN SUOulu IlOl nave tlit
to keep the home firses burning.
There is serious outbreak of
trouseritis among women.
The men blame this on to the fact
/ that somebody once said trousers We're
daring" and now women find them
an ever recurring temptation.
/ Certain it is that whever women are
permitted to don the basic bifurca-
tions you seek in vain for skirt. AT
all the recent fancy-dress balls, in the
newest reviews and in the latest
frocks women go trousered, therefore
happy.
At the victory ball girls were dress
ed either in Eastern costume, as pier
rots, little boys, or strange futurls1
things of which you couldn't recognize
the character but noticed 1t was bit
ten by the trouserits germ.
Men bewail it, and are trying tt
eect a cure by pointing out tha
trousers are the most modern thing:
ever invented.
In these times women have no hesi
teton in confessinp their true age.
