particular cities In q certain way and
the poorest way of all 60 approach
almost any city is by train. Never go
to Cadiz by rail. Better far, If you are
In mid-Spain and must use the roads
or the tedious ferrOcaril, go to Seville
or over to Tangier in Africa and make
one of those little voyages that are
regularly available, In order TO come
upon Cadiz by way of the sea. 1t is
generally acknowledged that there is
no other sea approach in the world
that is SO beautiful as this.
Cadiz at such times and in such cir
cumstanceS is a glorious picture in
white and blue. She rises up from the
sea on a small platform of limestone
rock which only a very narrow 18TH
mus holds to the mainland. In a ma
jestic silver beauty the houses with
their a~zoteas, or fiat roofs. seem TO
rise like a fairy city above the deep
blue of the sea, their miradores or
view towers surrounding them. All are
heavily coated with whitewash fire.
quently renewed.
Always Wnitc dHQ CiGan.
Thus the city is always white, quite
smokeless, and is kept spotlessly clean.
1t glistens in the sun against the blue
Andalusian sky, with waters tapping
it nearly all around. The poets and
the descriptive writer's have almost ex-
hausted themselves in their use of fine
adjectives to describe its beauty and
yet they feel they have failed. Span
iards call it their "tazita de plata" or
silver dish; some of them say it is
more like q ''palaeio de plata beauti-
fully chased, and from another aspect
they liken it to a great alabaster ship
floating out upon the waters. No terms
are too strong In which to speak of
Cadiz thus seen from the sea, for she
IS indeed very beautiful, veritably "a
white pearl set in aecrown of sapphires
and emeralds."
The interior of no city could com,
pletely match such an outside view.
but yet Cadiz, within, is good and
pleasant also, and is always extremely
clean, But it is a very practical place,
and though it has its cathedral with
n spire rising over all, it has little in
the way of art-one of the oldest cities
Of Spain though it be--to attract the
visitors who need 1t for their linger-
ing at any place. 1t is a place to
wonder at, to tarry at for but a little
while. and then to leave, knowing IT
full well to be unforgettable. But in
the new days of travelling that are be.
ginning, no person who wanders
toward the south of Spain should,
through neglect, miss seeing Cadiz
from the water. 1t will live in his
memory when he has forgotten many
pictures. 1t will hold its place in his
esteem even when he comes face to
face with the Incompatible Bay of
Naples.

Foot SQUARE and Square Foot.

A mathematician says there Is no
difference in area or quantity of sur
face between a foot square and a
square foot, but there may be a differ
ence in shape. A foot square must
be a rectangular surface having four
equal sides. measuring n foot long
each. A square foot may also be a
foot square, but it may be irregular in
shape, say six inches wide and two
feet long, or any shape so long as
the area is equal to IA square inches.

No, France is to be preferred,
because French officers have
trained the Polish soldiers and
because French diplomacy subj
ly has supported some of the
claims which the Polish govern
ment is making in order to JUS
tify an unjust war.
(;allie Influence Strong.
If America would follow the
example of France. that is, lend
moral support to the Polish
Ukrainan war. things would be
different, and there actually are
people who seem to think that
the United States ought to take
a hand in the affairs because they
pretend the war is not fought
for the purpose Of crushing poor
Ukraine but merely in an effort
to eradicate Bolshevism.
There are. however, sensible
and intelligent Poles who readily
enough understand that the Uni
ted States cannot afford to take
sides in regard to this issue. For
where wholly selfish matters are
at stake; where only political
conquest by arms is desired, I'm
Gle Sam has nothing to do, and
has never had anything to do.

experience a certain frigidity in

terrain for him. he is better off

Business Neu Active.

Special concessions have been
granted certain American inter-
ests throughout Poland, and it
may be said here that this has
come about chiefly through the
former premier, once the most
widely famous Of all the pianists
Of the world. Ignace Paderewsh:
His personal friendship for Am
erica is as genuine as it is pro-
found, and as long as he was in
power he did all he could to en-
phasize the fact that the Poles
were grateful to America. He
now lives in retirement in Swift
zerland. it is said, and is COM
pletely out Of active touch with
the fast developing Polish situa-
ton. Some Of the things he ac-
complished remain. however, and
among them is the clearly de-
fined effort to solicit and to re-
tain American friendship. Only
the method he chose has been
abandoned. for he would not have
sanctioned a war of aggression
that 10 completely upsets the
ideals for which the Allies
fought in the world war. :.
Pilsudski is the man Of the hour.
He is ruler of Poland. but the
hero Of the day is General Sep
tycki who is the head Of all the
Polish armies now rushing from
victory to victory. only once in
a while meeting an insignificant
defeat. These men are not think
ing of America or American
ideals. and all the millions who
see in the present war some
thing holy and inspiring. have
no time or inclination to compare
their own motives with those of
the United States before. during
and after the world war.
shade Poland Possible
Poles readily acknowledge
that American participation in
the war and in the subsequent
peace conference made POLAND
possible. They know as we'll as
everyone else that had it not
been for American interference
there would hardly have been ar
independent state known as Pc
land at this time. They praise
the people and the president Of
the United States more profuse
lv than other people do. but
they show by their actions thai
such affection is not very deep
seated, and that the policy Of
national egotism still is the pre-
dominating one.
And Just now America is ou'
of consideration as a practica
friend. For America is not &C
lively interested in the wa
against Ukraine. and for thi.
reason cannot reckon with tn,
wholehearted and enthusiast,
friendship of a fighting nation.

Counting I'm Friendship.

Npuu'sWS W"
People from Warsaw which is
the center of Polish thought and
opinion like to speak again and
again Of the American friend
ship for Poland. II is true that
no nation in distress has ever
appealed more sympathetlcally
10 the United States than Po-
land. ard it certainly also is
true in a wide measure that
prcsent-day Polish indepen-
dence is largely a product of the
moral support which America
has given the original claims.
1t does seem, however. as
Though the Poles are on the
verge Of FORGETTING the friend
ship which they have tradition
ally enjoyed from Americans.
for they are violating
the very principles upon
which such a friendship
must needs be ~predieated.
They are, in other words. apply
ing the lessons they have learned
in contact with old-time Prus-
sianism. and unless there is a
sudden r%eversion Of thought, Po-
land is approaching a period in
her history at which it will be
possible to look only with shame,
when things have Gained down
some time in the future.
To sum up in a general sense
what the Poles think Of Americs
is. in a way. difficult at the pre-.
sent stage Of events, for they say
one thing and do the opposite
They profess that they admire
the United States and the Amer
lean people: that they admir
American ideals and would like
to emulate them, but they can
not see that their very action,
give the lie to their claims.

WHAT NEW EUROPE
THINKS OF AMERICA
(By c. S. S%TRANDvOLD)
(By G.. S. ~STRANDVOLD)

up the fight Of all the world
against that ever spreading
menace.
But the real fact of the thing
is that the Polish Iegions are
trying to annex Ukraine because
the Polish government thinks
that old Russian province is
needed for the growth of the
Polish republic.
1t IS a new war of conquest
an unblushingly greedy attempt
which has not met with a great
deal of favor in the councils Of
the lords of the present Europe.
And yet, the Poles are proud and
enthusiastic as they have not
been for more than a century
and a half: 1t is their first OPP
portunity for demonstrating a
new-won Independence. and
they go about it very thoroughly
and very Systematically.
American Ideals Mentioned.
Time and again you hear Rus
sian as we'll as Galizian Poles say
that they are inspired by the
ideals which have made America
famous in history, but, in all can
did truth. it is impossible to
discern the connection between
unselfishness and aggression:
The Poles actually claim that
they are engaged i'm a war SINH
lar TO that Of the United States
against Spain for the purpose
of freeing Cuba! They say they
want to free Ukraine from the
Russian Soviet regime-while the
actual fact is that they want L.
kraine for themselves. So there
is a difference.
II is perhaps characteristic Of
the mood Of the people that they
refer time and again TO the glor-
ious name Of Tadeuz koscluzsco.
the greatest Of all their heroes
OF the past-the man who went
to America To offer his skill and
experience as a soldier to George
Washington when the young
country beyond the ocean was
struggling for it's own indepen-
dence. But there is no real par
allel. for America did at no time
engage in a war of conquest that
may in any way be compared "a
what now goes on under Polish
auspices.

In the late general elections the in
telligence and efficiency shown by the

itical organizations was more efficient

The above announcement Will prob
ably not satisfy the old office-holders,

probable that other names will appear.
but it Is certain that the women of this
city will have at least two candidates.
Some of tho present office holders,
who are contemplating announcing their
candidacy for reelection will probably
be discouraged by the candidacy Of the

have a great tendency. to have new men
