to transportation and the shortage of
horses, received support this week in

Governor Allen in his Topeka speech
the speech that took the country by
storm and brought about a congress

The governor spoke especially of
the lack of horses that were necessary
to bring up the artillery.
Shortage of Horses.
Here is what Elizabeth Frazer says
on that subject:
ION the American side the worst
problem, which, in turn, complicated
all other problems, was that of trans
portation. There was always crisis

Then the writer goes on:
-... there was acute shortage of
horses. There were not enough to be-

- And horses died by hundreds and
thousands. The woods were filled with
their carcasses."
Men Without Rifles.
In speaking of how the men went
ahead without the proper support
Elizabeth Frazer says:
again and again these vital necessi-
ties were missing at the outset of an at
tack and men went forward without
them. They went forward with no ar
tillery to prepare the way; with no am

with nothing but gas mask filled

How Keen Is Your Color Sense?
Recently in discussing the new VIC
tory shades we had a chance to see
just how keen a good many persons
are in their color perception. The
combination most popular in Paris,
you know, was rose and green-Bian-
cini green, the green that you find in
the Italian flag. Can you visualize
this italian green, or are you among
those to whom all bright. vivid green
appear the same? Some persons there
are who naturally confuse that other
national green-dear to the heart OF
every son of Erin-with this Italian
green which, tho just as vivid, is quite
different to eyes with a nice color
perception. There is rather more blue
in the Italian green, more yellow in
the Irish green, but if you don't feel
the difference that would not help you.
Just how much we knew about blues
became apparent when recently we
were discussing the color proposed for
the League of Nations flag. 1t has
been described as the color of peace
full skies and calm seas"
Then in a dispatch from Paris we
were told that the new Wilson rose,
already popular over there and advo-
Gated as the new peace color in tribute
to our president is between that of
a tea rose and a soft apricot" Is your
color perception keen enough to Wis
ualize this shade from this descrip-
tom
And speaking of Wilson and colors
do you remember how far off the
mark some of the shops and dress
makers were in presenting a green
that that called shadow lawn" green?
This hue enjoyed a rather fleeing
popularity during the early days of
Wilson's first administration. 1t was
green not so bright as that of the
italian flag or the Irish emblem, but
it was tinged with blue and at least
one well-known shop launched good
ly supply of accessories of a genuine
Kelly green under the name of Shadow
Lawn green, and no doubt the ma
jority of purchasers were none the
wiser.

1--WE were relieved on October and
went to Hargeville for a two weeks
rest, but they cut us short to five days
and we were sent up to the Verdun
sector. We were with the 35th again
for couple of weeks, just holding the
line, then our 'doughboys' were re-
lieved and we were attached to the
S1st division for the last drive of the
war. So you see we were on the line
when the armistice was signed, partic-
ipating in two drives, the Argonne
woods and the Verdun.
Experiences Not Pleasant.
believe me. it is not pleasant to
think what we have gone thru. The
weather here is about like early May
in Kansas, but it rains a good bit here
and makes it rather muddy. The
roads are all rock, so that doesn't
bother us very much.

hard thing, but it looks like we would

blame them, either. I want to come
back as bad as any Of them, but you

STAND OF JAPAN
Baron Maxine Outlines the Nip
pom Mans Peace Policy.
Pledged To Return Using Tao
to the Chinese Soon.

Paris, Feb. S.-Baron Maxine, senior
Japanese delegate to the peace con-
ference, made public today a state
ment as to Japan's position at the con-
ference. After outlining the main
facts in the history of the past twenty
years since the Chino-Japanese war,
describing Germany's efforts to estab-
lish herself in the Far East and Civ
ing in some detail the claims of Japan
to Pacific island groups located north
Of the equator. the statement says:
Germany sought to stir up ill-will
in the Far East after the penetration
of Manchuria by the Japanese railway
under the right granted by the Ports
mouth treaty. She also made the most
Of the more or less serious mistakes
made by both Japan and China in the
course of their diplomatic and COM
mercial relations"
After outlining the successive sur
render by Japan in the interests of
peace after the Chinese war and waiv-
ing of all money indemnity following
the war with Russia, the statement
comes up to the taking of Tsing-Tao
from Germany after Germany had re-
fused to accept the u1timatum of Au-
gust, 1914, under which Japan de-
manded that Germany vacate Using
Tao.
Japan is now pledged to return to
emma this harbor and port built with
German money, together with the ter
ritory of Kaio-Chau, which China will
receive eighty years sooner than she
could possibly secured it, the state
ment continues.

der which this restoration is to be
made, contained no secret clauses, and

tions.
These documents. with all their
clauses, have been laid before the
powers, including America. Japan
does not seek more than a fair divi-
sion in this work of development. We
realize that a great change has taken
place in the dealings between the ma
