American Singer Most Proposed
TO Girl in France
Today.

Miss Helen Besler, daughter Of the
president of the Central Railr, d Of
New Jersey, is probably the most pro-
posed to girl in France today. 1t all
came about because one night she ran
out of "encores," and sang a little nur-
sery Song called 'If No One Ever Mar
ries Me" 1t goes like this:
"If no one ever marries me
And / don't see why they should,
Tor nurse says am not pretty,
And I'm seldom very good"
The fate OF the little girl in the song
was to buy rabbit hutch and live all
alone in a little wood But the Amer,
lean soldiers saw no reason why Miss
Besler, who is pretty and petite and
a typical American girl, should have d
similar lot. After they had given her
the three cheers and a tiger with which
they usually thank the Y. M. c. A. en-
tertainers they hesitated moment and
then added a purely personal message
''Barkis is willin'," called the A. e,
f., as one man.
Since then the incident has been re.
peated in every American camp Miss
Besler has visited. No censor would
allow an estimate to pass of the mum,
ber of proposals Miss Besler has res
ceiyed in that way.

LEGATION Of the official figures
covering the French losses, it is

The figures as made up by the

should be set before the eye:
British dead, 706, 1876; French
dead. 1,071,3 300; American dead,
58,478; Russian dead, 1,700,000;
Austrian dead, 100000; German
dead 100000. These total
5,936,504. An appalling estimate,
that, and yet it does not include
the losses Of several other ma

THE WORD OF HOPE.

No more hopeful word has
been spoken since the signing Of
the armistice than that Of Presi-
dent Wilson to the American
troops on Christmas day, when
referring to the "chart for
peace" that it has been the priv
ilege to offer the world, he
said:
"Now the process Of settle
ment has been rendered com
paratively simple by the fact
that all the nations concerned
have accepted that chart, and
the application of those prin-
ciples laid down there viii be
their application.
'NThe world will now know
that the nations that fought this
war, as well as the soldiers who
represented them, are ready to
make good-make good not only
in the assertion of their own in
terests but make. good in the
establishment of peace upon the
premanent foundation Of right
and justice. "
1t was a message worthy of
the day that brought it, says the
McAlester NeWs-C Capitol.
Until within few days, there
was ground for fear that the
vast war sacrifices had been
vain-that the world could ex-
pect little more than return to
the old, perilous system Of rival
armament out of which this war
grew. But a change has come
over the spirit Of the men who
will determine the policies Of
the great peace conference.
These men appear to have
been really persuaded that a fed

Rhine Long a Boundary.

The first people who took possession
of the banks Of the Rhine, we are told,
were the half-savage Celts, who after
ward received the name Gauls. In the
height of his glory Caesar crossed the
Rhine and shortly afterward took the
entire river under his Jurisdiction. The
river was, in Roman times, boun-
dairy between the province of Gaul and
the German tribes, and at a later date
and until 1871 was the frontier be-
tween Germany and France.
