Washington It is argued that
most Of it occurs at the "rush

Government clerks have to get

charged up with losses Of pay.
But the plain fact is the jay

She would set out the wild

We can't say we greatly whether this report true
whether Hitler gets those colonies any part of them

would be too much to expect to help the British keep
them. Or to expect to help France keep what got

with all manner of propaganda about the
A War of rights of minorities, the beauties of de-
Conquest mocracy the horrors of autocracy the rape
of Belgium, the necessity of preserving
that dear France for the sake of the civilized world.
But the net result was that the German Empire was
stripped to the bone by the Allies-even Germany
would have stripped the Allies to the bone if Germany
had won.
Our part in it all that we put 100000 or so men
in uniform sent 100000 of them into action and spent
900 to further the territorial grab We
got no territory out of it for ourselves.
Yet it was the added weight of military strength
thrown in at desperate moment for the Allied arms that

German morale at home and that civilian despair COM

AC ChaC, she was right. Iney
didn't need any.
WHEN the strawberries were
" gone she would carry out
plates Of scrambled eggs on but
tered toast. The eggs were
deep, golden brown, just about
the same color as the toast. I
have never tasted scrambled
eggs as good as those, nor have
I ever seen them that deep, rich
color. I presume she drenched
them with country butter.
When I finally decided I ought
to know how they were pre-
pared so as to pass the secret
on to others, my mother was
not here to tell me.
We drank cGte-Gu-IGit with
the eggs, and after that, ate
croiSSGntS smeared with rasp-
berry jam-raSpberries as wild
and as sweet as the Strawoer-
ries, gathered and cooked with
her own hands. The strange
thing about it all is that none
of her children was introduced
to these delicious breakfasts
until after my father had met
his death and she returned to
her loved France. My mother
told me that at the beginning Of
her 25-year exile in Ireland
she had fixed such a breakfast
once for her husband-but with
'hothouse strawberries, because
trGiseS de bois were not avail
able. He sent it back to the
kitchen untouched and put q
ban on any more foreign
mesSes." She never cooked
breakfast again while he lived.
QUT, at that. those Irish break
fasts were not so bad-par.
ticularly when I compare them
with what 7 have to eat nova
days. My uncle James and my
grown brothers would start off
with four fingers Of old Bush
mills whiskey. My father touched
no liquor till sundown-at which
time he went irto action and
passed the rest Of the boys as
though they were standing still.
Porridge and cream in huge plat
ters followed the whiskey. Then
bacon and eggs, with the bacon
cut q quarter Of an inch thick.
This menu was varied only dur
ing the fishing season when the
bacon and eggs would be re-
placed by large salmon steaks
cut from the middles Of 20-pound
fish.
On the table would be q dozen
kinds Of bread plain soda
bread. soda bread with currants,
potato bread, potato cake, white
bread, brown bread, black bread,
oat bread, oat cake, uat biscuits.
barn-brack and hardtack. (My
father ate that for the good Of
his teeth.) And circling the
plates Of bread would be q dozen
kinds Of preserves, with here and
there. in reach Of everybody, a
pound Of fresh-churned butter
on a plate.
My mother, amidst all this
weighty plenty, would eat some
fruit, slice Of buttered toast
and drink q cup Of coffee. She
waited q quarter Of q century for
the breakfasts she loved to pre-.
pare-and to eat.
They were worth it.
