The Risks

In my frequent visits to Miss Cavell
The presence of lot of men was obvious
as soon as one entered the house--voices,
songs, cries. / often pointed this out to
her, and she replied calmly and resignedly:
"What would~you? l cannot impose silence

came back singing and disorderly, scandal

1t was then that and some other friends
determined to put these dangerous guests
IN private houses or with reliable inn

came. One day six guides arrived bringing

VT is a striking document which G.
Hostelet, Doctor of Science, Brus-
- sells, publishes in the March number
of the English monthly, "The Nine
teenth Century" 1t is the story of the
trial of Edith Cavell, and it is told by
one who was condemned along with her.
DR.. Hostelet would have received, also, a
death sentence, but was saved by the
intervention in his behalf of German
journalist. His sentence was lightened
to five years of penal servitude.
The account is news. 1t shows with
singular force the working Of German
military justice. And it is essentially
human document, being an actual diary
kent during the tense days in the Prison
Of st. Giles, when the Brussels scholars
own life hung in the balance. The edi-
tor Of the magazine in which the diary
appears calls attention to the precision
of detail and also the "dry humor which
scarcely covers his anxiety for himself
and his fellow prisoners"
After some preliminary pages devoted
to his arrest by the German military au-
thorities and the sinister efforts to take
testimony such as would serve their own
devious and monstrous ends, DR.. Hos
telet, coming to Miss Cavells part,
writes:
Before telling what l saw of the trial 1
will explain briefly what had been, as far
as l knew it, Miss Cavells part up to her
arrest
After the battle of Mons Numerous Eng
lish wounded and fugitives were taken in
by the inhabitants of the district. Soon
they had to think of getting them away.
Among the wounded was staff colonel,
who, as soon as he was able to stand,
wished to get to the frontier so as to re-
turn to duty. An engineer On. C) brought
him to Brussels. This first stage proved
that he was not yet strong enough to en-
dure the fatigue of the rest of the journey.
With whom should he find sure refuge
if not with the English matron Of the
Nursing School, whose courage and devo-
tion were universally known. A few per
sons were in the secret? But soon other
wounded recovered and were fit for service
They were sent to Miss Cavell, who con-
sented to give them hospitality until guides
could be found to take them to the from
tier. But the way to the frontier became
more and more difficult, so that from De-
cember, 1914, till July, 1915, Miss Cavel's
house was always full, first of English SOL
diers, then of French, and lastly of young
Belgians trying to get out Of the country
to enlist.

In the last few years the porch has
come in for as much furnishing and
decoration as the rooms of house.

planning for the porch than Tor the m
terror of q house; for, the absence Oh

scheme a more difficult problem. ana
the furniture appropriate for veranda
must of necessity be limited to two OF
three varieties.
The shape of the veranda has mucn

may be treated as an outdoor room
because the ample floor spare &C
commodities many more pieces of fur

Lucky indeed IS the family whose
veranda is of this spacious sort. Here
may be served cool, MONDAY meals
during the hot weather. and afternoon
tea. Indeed. many house owners whose
porches are built on this plan. have
even their breakfast out of doors IN
the summer days.
Such a porch should have either

surrounding it or thick vines, in order
that the family, when dining, may
have privacy. Flower boxes on the
railing also help to form shield from
the curious eyes of the passer-by.

observed in the case OF porch decora-

The round table should stand in the
center OF the floor space so that it can
be drawn up to the swing easily. the
other chairs being of counse drawn up

The narrow veranda, however, offers
an entirely different problem. 1t must
be regarded as a place for sitting,
rather than as an our door room.
