TROOPS OF ANGORA.
Light Equipment of Turkish Ma
tionalist Soldiers.
l.. s. Moore, in Asia.

L. o. ooooIe- III hslo-
All the time I was in !Ansora I was
national war. The Greeks were still
advancing, and new classes had been
called to the Turkish army-young
boys under eighteen and even men over
forty-five. Through open letters scat
tered broadcast. through banners and
professions and speeches. men were
urged to enlist. Daily a recruiting
squad passed through the streets of
Apgora with fife and drum to gather
in the recruits. And daily peasant re-
cruits clad in simple work dress. as If
they had just left their labor in the
ing. They brought nothing with them
save perhaps a small parcel or an old
flint-lock that previous threats and ap-
peals from the government had failed
to draw out of its place of colcealment
Sometimes I met in the streets coun-
clothing for the menfolk before they
marched away to the front. The un-
complaining Turkish soldier made small
demand on his commissary depart
ment. He received the minimum in
uniform and equipment from the gov
ernment's scant stock. He had no reg
ulatfon pack" His knapsack accom-
modated merely bullets and bread, the
only recognized necessaries-the latter
to be sacrificed in preference to the
former.
Lack OF motor transportation made
provisioning at the front even more
difficult, and barracks and hospitals
could only be improvised. But in An
CORA both existed and -sthe buildings
were commodious. The Red Crescent
was working valiantly everywhere, but
it also was short on personnel and
equipment which it could bring through
the Greek blockade on the Black sea,
only by special Intervention of the
great powers.

COFFEE THE FRENCH WAY.
Claimed Hot Milk Preserves Aroma
of the Beverage.
From the Kansas City Star

;
Is your appetite fer coffee a hit
jadedg Then try cafe au lait The
aroma arising from the cIp Of piping
hot coffee is credited with more than
half the charm of that beverage. and
the Frenchman who first turned the
trick of adding hot milk to equally
rot coffee preserved the aroma. the
ideal temperature and blended the
fl 1nvors of the two beverages into one
of the most delightful of breakfast
allurements
The FRENCH serve equal parts of
bot milk and hot coffee. The Amer
ican coffee drinker usually pours his
cup one-third full of hot milk and
fills il with the hot coffee. AS mat
ter of fine favor cafe au lait has ad-
rantaees over the usual serving of
coffee. 1t also provides a scheme for
stretching the family budget at the
same time. it renders superfluous
the usual provision of cream for
coffee.
There is true art in making coffee.
but the rules are SO simple they are
ignored by the majority of cooks.
For instance. the absolute cleanliness
of the coffee pot is one thing that
must be observed. Use finely ground
coffee. The aromatic oils which con-
stitute both the value and flavor of
coffee are released by fine grinding.
Do not boil coffee. The old adage.
Coffee boiled is coffee spoiled
should have a place on the wall of
every kitchen. Allow one rounded.
heaping tablespoon of coffee to the
cup. put in a clean pot. pour boiling
water over the coffee and let stand
ten minutes where the water will
keep to the boiling point without ac-
tually boiling. This is the French
mans recipe for coffee. Now add an
equal part Of hot milk and you have
cafe au lait.

WORD AT A TOUCH.

From the Kansas City Star.
There is a new thing in typewriters
in the field; it writes at one touch
words as well as letters.
1t could scarcely be expected to
write all words at a single touch. but
the inventor has selected the twenty
two words that he found to be in
most common use. either alone or as
syllables of ordinary words. These
are: "As, 900, at, all, are. be, by, but.
for, he. it, in, If, not. of. on, to. the,
we, was you" which, according to
the inventor constitute approxi-
mately 31.S per cent of the words in
common use, the sentence he selects
as an example being:
Now is the time for all good men
to come to the aid of the party" in
which nine of the sixteen words NAV
be written on his typewriter each
with a single touch.
The inventor uses standard
keyboard with extra keys for these
words arranged on three sides of IT.
A young woman who is an expert
on the typewriter makes the follow
ing comment on the new machine:
mo one who is accustomed to op-
Grating a standard make of tyne
writer is going to stop, spelling out
the little words, even using this
new one, for 1T would take more time
to think of the word key than it does
to spell the word out. But persons
beginning to learn to typewrite will
save time and trouble by using the
new one.

SOUTHERN RAILROADS
SHOWING MARKED GAINS

In no part of the country, hroba-
bly,. have railroads shown greater
Improvement as compared with same
period last year than down south.
Earnings statements of the Atlantic
Coast Line. Louisville and Nashville
and Southern have shown remarka-
bic revival of traffic. Not only has
net operating income increased, but
gross revenues are also running far
ahead of last year. Atlantic Coast
, Line is going at record rate, and
in the first four months of l922
earned the full years dividends of Z
per cent on its stock. The southern
is showing earnings at the rate OF
about Il per cent on its stock. and
resumption of preferred dividends
seems assured this year.
Two other reports of earnings for
May just issued by southern roads
emphasize this Improvement taking
place in that section These were
reports of Seeaboard Air Line and
the Gulf. Mobile and Northern. The
Seaboard Air Lines gross for May
was So SS9, $50. compared with $S.-

$4,000 less than in May of 1920t Its
net operating income was S4oO.624,
as against deficit of S67,05T in May
last year. For five months of this
year its net operating income was
Sl5S1427. compared with $s52.321
last year.
Gulf, Mobile and Northern reported
gross revenues for May of S413,753.
compared with s32S,S27 last year. and

FAMOUS EXPLORER
IN HONORARY LIST
Gen. Rondon of Brazil Enroll.
ed by National Geographic
Society Here.

The National Geographic Society
has elected to honorary membership
Gen. Candido Mariana da Silva Ron
don. famous explorer. often called the
William Penn of Brazil.
Gen. Rondon won this popular
characterization for his peaceful
known Matto Crosse wilderness, now
renowned for its rubber, where he SC
successfully won the confidence OF
the natives by his fair tred dtment and
human assistance that they even
helped him string telegraph wires
through the jungle of their hitherto
forbidden land.
Gen. Rondon is the ninth man elected
to honorary membership in the National
Geographic Society. one Of the other
eight being the late Theodore Roose-
welt, who. upon his return from his
Brazilian explorations, made known
Rondon'S work in this country by his
high praise of the BraZilan's achieve

Gen. Rordon's name henceforth will be
perpetuated on Brazilian maps by the
name Rondonia given by his govern

For thirty three years Gen. Rondon
has been at work in this vast wilder
ness. AS chief of special commits
sion he built telegraph line across
the jungle from Cuyaba, in the south =
east. to ,the Madeira river. But his
outstanding service, perhaps. is that
performed as commissioner of Indian
affairs of Brazil. where his policy of
non-retaliation and kindness toward
the Indians won their friendship, con-
seryed their own civilization and
constituted what has been called
the greatest government conserva-
ton of aborigines in the new world
today"
In his letter to Gen. Rondon. trans
mitted through the Brazilian ambas-
sador, DR.. Gilbert GrosVenor. presi-
dent OF the National Geographic So

trustees. having in view your splen-
did services to civilization through
your work with and in behalf of the
aborigines of Brazil, and your notable
contributions to geography through
your exploratory expeditions, has
unanimously elected you an honorary
member of the society. the highest
honor it can confer.
Il wish to assure you OF my own
high personal esteem and of my hope
that such deeds as yours may serve
to knit the Americas together into an

j GIRLS OF 1868.
What a Writer of That Period
Said of Them.

From the Detroit News.
"The girl of the period is a crea-
ture who dyes her hair and paints her
face as the first articles of her per-
sonal religion; whose sole idea of
life is plenty of fun and luxury, and
whose dress is the object of such
thought and intellect as she pos
sesses," wrote Mrs. Lynn Linton in
the Saturday neview of March IA.

live her neighbors in the extrava-
gance Of fashion.
Love indeed. is the last thing she
thinks of and the least of the dan
gers besetting her.. Love in cottage,
that seductive dream which used to
vex the heart and disturb the calcu-

myth of past ages. The legal barter

The unions. Mr.. Jewell told the
