Oldtime Fog Pays London
A Visit After Long Absence

which means that they crawl grom sig
nal-arm to signal-arm at ordinary
walking pace.
The task Of the traffic policeman Is
intensified hundredfold. He cannot
gauge the streams Of traffic coming
toward him, he can only fash his Ian
tern one way or the other at intervals
and hope that all Of the drivers who
may be Drawing the fog are sensible
enough to proceed at crawl.
In the intervals he conducts parties
street to the other, showing the way
(for foot or two ahead) with his
lamp. There is something fantastic,
something entirely incongruous, in the
spectacle Of one of London's most stall
wart boobies lighting the way across
the Strand at Charing Cross at 10
o'clock in the morning.
Old Stories Revived
The recent .fogs have given opportun-
ity for the revival of many of the old
under the cover Of the obscuring dark
ness. One of the favorites is that of
the man who located the square
wherein he lived, but wandered hope
fesSly around FOR several hours trying
In vain to find his house.
This is, however, not at all improb-
able even in the best Of weather. The
numbering Of square may start two
blocks down a street leading from one
corner of the inclosnre, proceed. con-
secutively to the square itself, jump to
the diagonal corner, cover all the
houses in highly original fashion of
touch-and-go, and finally end up in
side street fifty yards from the start
ing place.
There are also, Of course, the tales
of wandering arm-in-arm with some
one whom one is unable to see, and of
the eventual discovery that both per-
sons are strangers and far from their
respective destinations, And there are
other. and wilder stories, legacies of
the days when the Falstaffian quip
was CONNIE ii faut IN the best circles.
Light Surprises Folks
Sometimes suddenly, when all Of the
electric signs In Piccadilly CIRCUS and
all the street lights and all the illum-
ination of the display windows have
been called into play to make faint
gisams OF Light In the solid wall
plicably, swiftly, as though a curtain
had risen. Then the streets bear a
curiously surprised appearance, as If
day had come fullblown at midnight
and found every one totally unprepared
for 1t.
The electric lights have a sickly hue
against the daylight; the people stare
surprisedly at the vast population of
pedestrians and vehicles which had
been hidden away beneath the yellow
veil. Hands go furtiyely to neckties
and hats. to straighten them. There
are swift glanees into nirror-like shop
windows to assure ones self that one
has committed no sartorial error and
trusted to the fog to conceal it. For
o brief moment one takes humanity un-
awares---if one Is not too busy wiping
particles Of s0os from one's own eyes.

LONDON. Feb. 1s. - The imposing

throughout the world, but London has
other clubs far less ambitious, but full
OF novelty and interest.
Each week the Raiders Club meets in
q Soho restaurant for dinner. The
members are all men who did at least
one raid during the war and all have
war decorations. Over the coffee cups
they fight their battles again, forget

and the less thrilling duties of bust

Another veterans organization is the
latest Thirteen Club. The members
were all officers In the same battalion.

the 10Th and 18th Of each month they
meet at the fountain in Piccidilly and
adjourn to dinner at nearby restau-

arrive chairs are placed for them and

More Boys Than Girls Born
Statistics in England Indicate
After-War Influence
on. The TrFbune's European Buredu

From The T''ibune's European Bursdu
LONDON, Mb. 26.-The belief that
more boys tan girls are born after
periods Of war has been vindicated in
the vital statistics recently published
by the registrar general here.
More than 10000 more boys than
girls were born in 1919, the highest
proportion since the commencement cd
registration in 1888. The fact that
more boys were being born was first
noticed in the birth statistics OF 1916
and has steadily increased since.
Another curious fact Of "sex ratios"
Ia that as prices increase, the percent
age of boy births rises. This fact has
been strikingly demonstrated in the

COMMON SENSE.

The sentiment of the British
miners strike on the basis of a
compromise in which all parties.
including tho government, yield
something. Is great victory for
British common sense
The strike, which continued for
30 DAYS was Tho 49, serious and
costly in the ksTory of Great
Britain.
From the first il threatened the
country with an industrial aud
political revolution Its effect on
every phase of industrial life was
little short of disastrous, and had
IL continued much longer the
great industrial machine upon
which the very life of the people
of Great Britain depends would
have collapsed
The extent Of the disaster which
was every day becoming more
imminent as the result Of the
strike, can hardly be appreciated
by the people in this country
Coal means more To- the people
OF Great Britain, rich and poor
alike, than to the people Of any
other OF the grcai nations.
u is not only the keystone Of
their industrial arch. bui is the
medium through which they are
able go import their necessary
food supplies
in Great Britain coal is king
Its large and economical produc-
ton means some degree Of pros
perity for all classes It's con-
tinued scarcity would mean ruin
for all classes
The threatened i1iin has been
avoided because n She final pinch

miners and the public, represent

that they were oil in the same

HUGGERS PLUGGING
 SYRACUSE CO.-EDS
'Pecping Toms" Also Make Life Ono of Continuous Thrills for Fair
 Students.

Syracuse, Jan. 20.-Frightened by a series of deprcdations by sneak thieves, "Peeping Toms and Jack the Huggers." co-eds of Syracuse university have appealed to the po- lice to end the nuisance. Within the last twenty-four hours three men have been reported proving around sorority houses. In a number of cases rooms of girls have been ran sacked and money and trinkets taken.
 At the Alpha Epsilon Sorority house last night a thief entered tho second story rooms by means of a fire escape and footed them. He made his escape by the fire ladder when detected. About the same time at Kappa Alpha Theta Sorority house a man was detected peeping into the front windows and trying to force an entrance.
 The house at BOT University place. where several co-eds live. also was entered and the rooms of Miss Alice Thennett and Miss Dorothy Streney ransacked. Four other cases which have not been reported officially to the police are known of sorority houses having been entered.
 A few weeks ago the entire hill section was terrorized by a Jack the Hugger" who embraced a number of girls in the vicinity of the campus.
