A PERMISSIBLE ALLIANCE

Sioux Falls ArgusLeader- are
not much in favor of foreign alliances,
but we have nothing but good to say
of the proposal of an alliance between
France, England and the United States
to stand together in the case of any
future attack by Germany against any
of the three. An agreement of this
kind should be made and the terms
published to the world. 1t would mean
that Germany would know in advance
what she was getting into in "the next
war" And knowing this, there would
be no next war. We have small ap-
petite for general commitment TO
everybody all over the world, but such
an alliance as mentioned above is
merely to finish the job.

AlRPLANEs IN GREAT WAR
rnarkabIe Work That Contributed
to Victory Of Civilization.

The Fokker series Is interesting.
First, there was the monoplane FOX
ker. so long menace at the front.
Then they tried the little triplane
FOkker, a weird-looking machine,
whose speciality was climbing high
and diving down on the foe. Unfor-
tunately In the dive the top plane had
a way Of coming off. It was in Fox
ker triplane that the "Red Devil"
Baron Won Richthofen came to grief,
and you can see the engine Of his ma
chine, a 40 La Rhone, copied from a
French rotary engine.
The last type Of Fokker-and a
very good one-is the DIT biplane, all
metal except for the wings, with a
high-power engine and a tremendous
climber. The specimen on show be-
longed to Richthofen's circus. You can
follow the attempts Of the Germans
to win security by armoring their ma
chimes, but armoring did not pay, ow-
ing to the weight and clumsiness.
Late in 1918 an extraordinary ma
chine was brought down. made entire
ly Of metal, with wings Of some kind
Of aluminium alloy, and brass seat
for the pilOt--the whole thing a marvel
Of bold inventiveness.

How Fas. Shot Travels.

When standing within a few yards
Of guns muzzle at the time of dis
charge, person would be amazingly
astonished were he only able to see
the shot go whizzing by. Experiments
in instantaneous photography prove
that the shot not only spread out,
cometlike. as they 1y, but they string
out, one behind another at much
greater distance than they spread.
Thus, with cylinder gun, when the
shot Of a charge reaches target that
is 40 yards away, the last shot Is lag
cling full ten yards behind. Even a
chokebore gun shot will lag behind
eight yards In 10. This accounts for
the wide swath that Is moved in a
flock. of ducks on which charge Of
shot falls just right. About 5 per cent
only of the shot, according to the most
reliable deductions from experiments,
arrive simultaneously at the target
aimed at, the others tagging in the
ratio named above.

RABBIT SKIN FOR LEATHER
Possibility That Tanning Prseess tias

Solve Dia Problem.

At present In Annonay, France. an
earnest effort is being made to intro.
duce rabbit skin leather In shoe max
ing. Annonay il In the valley Of the
Rhone, just south Of Lyons. It was
there. about Is years age. that chem
list devised tanning process in which
the hair was removed from the pelt
Of a rabbit without damage to the
skin. Previously no one had been able
to remove the hair without iajuring
the pelt.
The chemist had his process tried
out for short time, but It did not
prove to be a commercial success and
the rabbit-skin shoe came to be only
a memory. Less than ten years ago
some Germans got hold of the old
chemists fornduls ana began to manu-
facture rabbit leather.
At one of the industrial exp0sitions
in Germany in 1909 there was q display
Of $50 styles Of shoes made Of rabbit
skins. The exhibitions won first prize
In the department Of footwear. Now
the French have taken mp the work OF
the old chemist of Annonay and are
manufacturing shoes out Of rabbit
pelts.

Women as Secretaries.

Since Mr.. Lloyd George made the in
novation Of appointing woman secre-
tary, the example Of the prime min
lister has been followed by some Of his
colleagues in the cabinet. One of the
three private secretaries to Mr.. B0nar
Law, the chancellor of the excheQuer.
having left recently to become deputy
chairman of the board Of inland reve-
nue., the chancellor has decided to
economic man power and at the same
time give formal recognition Of wom-
ems growing efficiency by making Miss
e. NJ. Watson one Of his private secre.
taries. These appointments Of women
civil servants to confidential posts in
the encourage of the members Of the
British cabinet are highly popular
among women workers generally who
appreciate the honor thus done to

Faithful Ssrviter.

We have been accustomed lately to
think Of dogs, as also most other
things, In terms Of war; but our debt
to the dog dates back to very many
centuries before the black year OF
1014. Dogs are our Oldest friends Of
the animal world, and 1t is believed
that, since the time man began to do
mesticate them, they have made more
rapid strides in intelligence than we
have ourselves.
The day may dawn when we seek to
preserve all living things through al
truism, but that day il long distant,
A writer In London Answers observes
dogs have survived to the tune Of over
ITO different species, because they are
useful As shepherds, Scotch collies
are cheaper and more elective than
the average human being. Pointers
and settlers are used with the gun.
Other varieties are employed as pro-
tectors and comrades; while the er-

SPOILED BIG WEDDING FEAST
How Ex-cerman Emperor Upset Din.
ner on Which Herr BALM Had
Spent Much Money.

Herr BALM was noted for the ex-
travagant dinners which he gave ON
great occasions, says the Edinburgh
Scotsman. Probably the most magnifi-
cent of all was that which he arranged
to grace the wedding Of the kaiser's
daughter to the duke Of Brunswick.
The floral decorations alone cost $10,-
600, the dinner worked out at about
$50 a plate, and the wines at about
$50. But the dinner, from Herr Bal
Inns point Of view, was q failure, for
the kaiser and kaiserin, who were to
have been present, sent word in the
afternoon that they could not come
and it was in their honor, OF course:
that Herr BALM had spent his thou
sands on the banquet. One of his
servants has said that when Herr Bal.
Min received the message that the en-
'peror could not come, he few into q
tremendous rage. He sent for his
butler, and ere the man had reached
Herr Ballin's study, his master shouted
out to him.: "The emperor cannot come
to dinner tonight-put the whole show
off," and then slammed the door. The
butler did not know exactly what to
do. To put off so important guests a.
were to be present was, of course, an
impossibility; but no one in the house
hold dared to approach the master OF
it to suggest this. However, at about
. o'clock Herr Ballin had sufficiently
recovered his temper to come down
stairs and give some necessary direc-
tions about the banquet.
