PRINCE VISITS YANKS.
Wales Has Day of Entertainment
as Guest of Gen. Dickman.

COBLENZ, Saturday. January II
(by the Associated Press).-A flight
over the Coblenz bridgehead area, a
luncheon with Maj. Gen. Muir and a
dinner dance occupied the time today
of the Prince of Wales, who is the
guest of Mai. Gen. Dickman, COM
mander of the American army of oc-
cupation. An incident of the day was
the narrow escape of the prince from
"A volley of machine gun fire. although
he did not know about it until later
in the day. An automobile with news
paper correspondents travelling ahead
of the princes machine was halted
near Cochem by German who ex-
hibited a bullet and explained that
machine gun company was at target
practice. The steady popping of guns
beyond the hill added emphasis to his
story. An officer stationed nearby was
notified and he telephoned to the
practice range telling the officers
there of the situation. The firing
ceased just before the royal guest
drove past.

TO DEM0B|L|zE WOMEN
NOW A COLOSSAL TASK
London Officials Find Difficulty in
Readjusting Workers From War
Wages to Peace Conditions.

LONDON, December 90 Correspond
ence of the Associated PressD.-To
"demobilize" about 1000, 900 woman
war workers is the colossal task as
signed to a special department of
the ministry of labor. Women pre-
dominate in this new organization.
One of the most difficult of their
problems will be how to satisfy a.
munitions worker who has been earn
ing from SIS to $40 a week now that
she is called upon to return to her
former task as family servant at
from So to s3.25 a week. Government
officials realize that this is one of the
hard problems connected with the re-
construction period, especially as
these girls and women must sacrifice
some of the freedom they have en-
joyed as munitions workers. and now
submit to more exacting hours of
work

of the American University, read the
Scripture lesson.

HIS COMPANY was founded to pro=

~ the pioneers in American color pro=
duction. The war brought not only
the opportunity but the necessity for the development
of this accumulated experience. Upon this experience
has been built structure i'm personnel and in equip

The obligation resting upon during the

Government and of the textile industry demanded
first attention. The building of immense plants
had to go on hand in hand. Today produc=
ing 90 intermediate products and 100 diff
ferent colors. Type for type these products
fine in quality as any ever imported.
Out of Research Department must come the
future progress of the Company. Its past years of
steady upbuding and devoted service will become
evident better and newer types advance into the
semi=manufacturing, and ultimately to the full manu
featuring scale of production. Several very impor=
tant types to be available i'm 1919 have already been
announced. We know the needs of the country by
reason of years of service which selling units have
devoted the textile industry and the research which
we undertake dictated in the interest of the textile
user.
Primarily and logically the American coaltar color
industry is servant of the great American textile
manufacturers whose annual product into the

Discussed in Sermons
by Washington Pastors

Simon Wolf, a personal friend of
Theodore Roosevelt. spoke of his eff
forts for the betterment Of the Jew
ish race in an address yesterday
morning at Eighth Street Temple be-
fore a large audience.
Mr.. Wolf said that to him Col. Roose-
welt was a dear friend.
HE was responsive TO every call; to
him the Jew vas not a sectarian, but
the man. entitled to every opportunity
of equality.
The Kishinef petition episode rang
out fearlessly and was a trumpet call,
challenging a great power for justice.
His appointment of Oscar S. Straus as

liberal American he was. and con-
tributed to the freedom which is the
heirloom of every citizen"

Bishop Harding's Tribute.

blShop darQ1ngS Tribute.
Tribute to the former President was
paid by Bishop Harding in his sermon
yesterday.
"Roosevelt's civic and political creed
was promulgated in his words. High
office is alone a chance to render
service uttered by him during an ad-
dress when laying the foundation
stone of the Washington Cathedral, in
1907" said Bishop Harding.
Reviewing the life of Roosevelt,
Bishop Harding said he was a poll
tician in the good sense only, and
began fighting corruption in his
earliest days.
He was a man among men, and
there is no man in our day that has
drawn TO himself the personal affec-
ton and admiration of such a
multitude of his fellow countrymen-
men, women and children-as did Mr..
Roosevelt
He said that whatever mistakes Mr..
Roosevelt may have made, no one
can ever say that he did not seek to
do the thing that was right, the thing
tthat was patriotic.
At Grace Reformed Church. where
Mr.. Roosevelt was a member while
President and also Vice President,
his pew and portrait were draped in
mourning yesterday and will remain
so for thirty days. 1.-The Character
of Roosevelt and It's Significance to
American Life" was the subject of

HEARTY EATERS IN AUSTRALIA
Citizens of That Country May Claim
to Have the Best Appetltes
on the Planet

Some surprising statistics We're pub.
lshed recently of what the average
Australian eats.
To judge from these figures, he has
the best appetite, if not the best d.
gestion, of any human being on the.
planet.
He eats every year 264 pounds Of
meat which works out at an average
Of two sheep and One-fifth of bullock
for every man, woman and baby in.
Australia He eats more than twice
as much meat as the average English
man, and three times as much as the
average Frenchman, and four times as
much as the average German or Swiss.
In addition, he consumes about three
and three-quarter hundredweight of
wheat, two and half hundredweight
Of potatoes, and almost one hundred.
weight of sugar.
If he is a Tasmanian he eats q quar-
ter of ton of potatoes In year!

HARD TO TRACE ITS DESCENT
Story Of the Standard Yard and lis
origin Must Be Accepted With
Some Reservation.

The picturesque story Of the reln-
ton between the length of Henry rs
arm and the standard yard which the
lord chancellor will disinter from the
walls of Westminster palace is one
we should all like to accept, writes
correspondent Of the Manchester
Guardian. But the historical stand
ards have changed so often that there
must be many gaps in the chain Of
descent. If the yard and the pound
are as described they must be exact
copies of the less romantic standards
Of the board of trade, which date from
no later than 1884. And why prosy
Victorians should have buried them In
a wall is hard to understand. The
oldest standard in existence, so far as
know, is the yard of Henry VII,
which should be In the Jewel house,
but as 1t has only 35.9S3 inches 1t is no
longer good measure. Parliament had
q standard troy pound and new yard
constructed in 1760. They were de-
posted with the clerk to the house of
commons, but in the fire of 1884 the
pound was lost and the yard injured.
This yard was then lost sight of until
1891, when 1t was placed in the lobby
of the clerks residence, together with
a standard "stone" of IA pounds.
