Canadian Farmers

The whole trend of Canadian
politics is being changed by the bust

The campaign signalizes the full en-

Originally the farmers revolt was
directed against high tariffs. They
also want initiative, referendum and
recall, ad land settlement scheme

to the strict and intense form Of the

FRANCES PLACE

After Chateau Thierry it was NO
easy thing to get a Frenchman to
talk about his country's feats of

to: IAN, those Americans! they stop
at nothing" They likened all Amer
lean traits to the best traits of their
own people. 1t became password
of friendship between our soldiers
and theirs, that magic Chateau
Thierry."
When the French people admire
anybody they go the limit They
once took sides with our colonies in

been our friends ever since. During

began to fill up the vast areas of
their country and began to be seen

Americans.
An even hundred years after our
nation won a place in the interna-
tional circle the people of France all
put lot of confines and francs into
a huge fund with which they had
erected in New York harbor our cele-
brated Statue. of Liberty. Has any
such a ting been done between peo-
pies before or since? Nations may
honor each other with high sounding
messages, but in this unique case
the people themselves performed the
deed. America was busy, and has
been busy ever since. Many of our
generation did not even know where
that Statue of Liberty came from, or
had forgotten If they ever did know.
And now the people Of America are
going to reciprocate. The pennies,
nickels and dimes of everybody, from
child to grandpa, will be gathered to-
gether to make. up fund of $780,
600 to build on the river Marine a
statue commemorating the stand the
poilus made there when the Huns
threatened Paris. The world shall
know from that sign that Americans
appreciate France and the record de-.
Tense she made in honor of civiliza-
ton.
Since medieval history began,
France has been the battle-ground of
sacred wars. 1t was in southern
France that Charlemagne repulsed
the Moslem hordes that would have
swept Europe from. the map. 1t was
in eastern France that the .origi-
nal Huns met solid defense and
turned back. Many religious wars
were fought on French and Belgian
soil.
But France has also furnished the

modern thoughts and institutions.

Tells Secret Of Smoke
Screens Used in War

LOndOn.-The secret of the
smoke screens, used with great
success by the British navy in
the raids on Ostend and Zee
brugge, is definitely disclosed.
They were produced from an
acid, which has to be burned In
the presence of a sufficient
amount Of water vapor, other
wise the smoke produced, even
over the sea, is liable to be
somewhat thin on dry day.
Commander Brock, who sac.
rifced his life in the assault on
the German defenses at the Bel
gian ports, devised the plan to
feed the acid in a fine spray into
the funnel Of a destroyer, where
the temperature. was sufficient
to vaporize the acid, and the
water vapor present completed
the formation of the cloud.
