ON AN ARMY BASIS.

A dozen male school teachers in
Pittsburgh who served in the army
during the war have pet<ioned TO
have their compensation placed on
the army basis Of $33 per month,
with board, clothing and lodging.
Their pay now ranges from $3.50 to
$217 per month, and this, they as
sert, at the present scale of living
costs is not equivalent to the pay
given the private soldier.
The time may come when school
teachers. in Pittsburgh and elsewhere.
will be installed in barracks, clad in
standard uniforms, and each sup
piled with his mess kit. Possibly the
morning and evening bugle calls, the
cleaning up Of kits and quarters. and
occasional assignment to kitchen po-
lice duty may be added to enhance
the realism Of the thing.
The petition. however, suggests a
feature Of army life which is quite
often overlooked. The soldiers cash
pay Of thirty-odd dollars a month is
often treated as his entire compensa-
ton, and is contrasted with the civil
ian's pay Of several times that sum.
Critics sometimes overlook the fact
that especially in these days. when
one is paid so much a month and
found" the found is apt to repre-
sent by far the greater share of the
actual compensation.

Therefore,, the obstruction present

able to accomplish this purpose was
one Of the motives which prompted
Turkey to Join the kaiser in his late
enterprise. and it formed a part Of the
plan of the kaiser for q great central
empire reaching from the North Sea
to the Indian Ocean. That program
was interrupted, but efforts have
been made to have the Turkish part
Of it resumed through the appoint
ment of the United States as manda-
tory for the undivided Turkish en-

remain Turkish territory, with such

THE OTHER FELLOW.
If we were in the other fellows place,
If we. knew all that troubls him each day,
II we could solve the riddle of his face
And see the many pitfalls in his way,
Perhaps we, too, would stand and cry aloud
And shudder at the jeering of the crowd.
How sorely tempted is the sinner here
Only the sinner we'll and truly knows; q,
What buds of hope have ~blighted year by year,
Leaving decay where should have bloomed a rose,
None but the broken toiler here can tell.
Yet, jim his place, would we have done as well?
If we were standing where the failure stands,
And knew the disappointments he had faced
Had had our LIES work crumble. in our hands.
Or, being weak, had sinned and been disgraced
Perhaps we, too, would shu file down the street
And lie or steal for something warm to eat.
Better than sneers is pity for the lost,
rev men by choice upon life's rocks are wrecked,
Once hoped to walk the world with heads erect. a
And we, perhaps. who stretch no hand in. aid ~
Against such odds no better would have played.

A FAIR APPRAISAL.

Henry En&lan0S 0lS-
tinguished military critic, contributed
an illuminating article to the current
number of the Atlantic Monthly on
General Ludendorf's book. The
memoirs of the directing head Of the
German military machine have had
wide circulation in his country in the
past few months and have provoked
much discussion. Ludendorn is not
disposed to give the American army
much credit for the defeat of his
forces, but Sidenbotham takes up
that angle with a fine spirit Of fair
ness and without any Of the prejudice
which SO often crops out when Eu-
ropean writer's discuss this country's
contribution to the allied victory.
"Ludendorn. in his book" says
Sidenbotham, "calls August 8 the
black day of the German army in the
war. He has been disappointed by
his failure to reach Amiens in his
first great offensive. The second Of
fensive toward Calais, which ST
alarmed England, revealed to the eye
of Ludendorn a failure in the morale
Of some German divisions which
made him a~pprehensive of what hap
pened later. But what shocked him
in the Allied victory on August 8 was
the evidence that, in spite of our
heavy losses, we were still able to
take a successful offensive, and that
in front Of Amiens. That was the
doing of the American troops. 1t
was not that the Americans at this
time had very great numbers in the
front line, although they had some
troops Of fine quality who did inval-
liable service. Their most important
contribution to the Allies was. that
they enabled US to throw all in.1Foch
could choose the exact moment for
his counter-offensive because he
knew that behind him he had the
inexhaustible reserve of the Ameri-
can army. It was not the American
troops actually in the field that won
the a It was the enemy's fear
OF them and Foch's absolute conf
dence in them. The mere shadow
OF the American giant falling across
the battlefield shatts1ed the morale
of the enemy Inc brought him to the
state Of believing himself beaten,
which issthe only real defeat in war"
IA lot sofsgun has been written lsbput

eagleism has had its day in each of
the Allied countries; we have all
erred q little in building up our own
military regulations, at the expense
Of our comrades. But the time is
coming now when thinking men and
women will demand history rather
than propaganda about the war.
