cers' spree was to take place.
There was consternation in the regi-

son of the king and the son Veni-
zelos at the same table," eaid the offi-
cer in charge of the arranerements.
'But what is to be done? We cannot

At that moment Alexander crane in

Such is Alexander, the present King
of Greece. He came to the throne not
at the bidding of his people not as
the lineal successor of his father, but
simply because the entente powers so

Britain is finding herself ih-hrnany
vays owing to the war. One source
„of much revenue, as well as of a re-
-ouisite in the preparation of explo-
sives, is found in the camp refuse.
The -Yorkshire Post, in describing' the
results secured under a process for
utilizing the camp refuse by the
Quartermaster -General's Department,
"While the Englishrmade glycerine
was $290 per ton, the United $tates
fixed their figure at $1,200 per ton.
During the first month the scheme
as pot into operation, a weekly re-
turn to the Army for camp refuse was,
made of $9,000. In January of this
year, the weekly amount increased to
