Whoio Duty It Is First to
Find tho Conl,
At a moment when the troubles of
the cont 141114• till so large a space in
the newspaper14, it may not he htclp-
proprinte to eketch the life and work
of 0 man of whom littlo ds heard., yet
whose calling Is the very foundation of
000lIubling, says a London newspaper.
This is the pit-8initee -Ute elan who
digs the shaft, who first bores and
hews and eats Iris way three-quarters
of a mild beneath the surface of the
earth to prepare the way for the
miner. And, as we shall show, his is
a calling invested with a good deal of
renitence, and often ennobled by rare
courage and oelf-encrif>co.
Let us bnagine that a company has
been formed to exploit the coal be-
neeth an estate. They want a big
capital. A million dollars is the small-
est; they may even require two and a
half millions.
For from the day when the first sod
is turned until the day that coal is
actually raised for sale, two years,
three years, and sometimes five and
NIX years, must elapse, and all that
Limo money is simply running away
without a single penny being received
In return,
Coal is found in curious places, 'The
writer remembers one pit shalt being
sunk in the centre of a forst. As a
matter of fact, eoal-mines now oper-
ate on the very edge of Sherwood

ploits, and there is coal actually be-
neath tile hi8torfc "Dukerlos," but the
landowners (00 not anxious to annoy
the shades of Robin and his merry
greenwood men by planting coalpits
where these famous outlaws held their
revels.
Coal -mines may be situated even in
little spa villages, in tho stretching
park -lands of belted earls, and at least
three cases could be cited where they
are found at the gates of ancestral
mansions; and grimy pitmen walk
through villages where a generation
ago the only diversion was the meet
of the local hunt. The coalowner,
once ho has determined to dig, is no
respecter of, the amenities of rural
life.
He is Always in Danger. •
On a given day the sod is turned In
the presence of the public. Three or
four operations begin simultaneously.
A railway is cut to the nearest main-
line. Powerful winding engines are
brought and bolted to concrete foun-
dations. A great engine -shed is erect-
ed. Pumps are put up to deal with the
water. Electric light is 'installed so
that the work can go on day and night.
A huge circle is drawn on the grass,
the sods are removed, and the pll-
sinker gots to work,
It is the pit -sinker who bears the
brunt of the first two or three years.
He follows a calling which is one to
itself. There is nothing quite like it,

As the shaft deepens he is lowered in

er see, electric cables aro laid down,
and he works with their glittering aid.
The shaft is circular, and as he goes

to encase it in brick.
Danger threatens hint every day.
Sometimes the sides of the shaft cave
in, aucl he is buried beneath tons of
earth. Sometimes a huge rock is dis-
placed. and, falling, it carries death to

TPF FOUR NEW
STATES OF EUROPE
ONE OF THE TASKS OF PEACE
CONFERENCE COMPLETED.
Out of the Maelstrom of War Emerge
the New Nations of Poland, Rouman-
ia, Jugo-Slavia and Czecho-Slavia.
One of the most onerous tasks of
the Peace Confdrence has boon the
erection in Europe of four new na-
tions, viz,: Poland, Roumania, Jugo-
Slavia and Czecho-Slavia. To those
who believe that the Allies have been
wasting their time on highly idealistic
problems in trying to set these four
nations upon their feet it may be ans-
wered that the interest of the Allies
is by no means altruistic They are
impelled, if not by wholly selfish mo-
tives, at least by the practical con-
sideration of self-defence. For in-
stance, in the late war Germany and
Austria wore in control of a man-
power estimated at 30,000,000, made
up of subject races that were no more
racially -akin to Germany than are the
French. These millions were Poles,
Czechs'aud Slays who had been ruth-
lessly misgoverned by Germany and
Austria for generations. 'When the
opportunity occurred these forced sol-
diers surrendered in great numbers
to their nominal enemies, who were
their racial kin, as for instance when
the Czeoho-Slays threw down their
arms to the Russians and later volun-
teered for service against Germany in
France.
Tho Allies are determined that it
shall be taken out of the power of
Germany and Austria for all time to
come t0 employ these millions as can-
non fodder. Tho intention is to at-
tach them permanently, if informally,
to the Allies. They will be the buffer
between Germany and Western and
Southern Europe.
Poland is Buffer State.
Poland is re-established as a buffer
state between the militarism of Ger-
many and the anarchy of Russia. Po-
land has a couple of sweet neighbors.
As all the world knows, the Poles have
never lost their race identity whether
under German, Russian or Austrian
domination. They formed a solid
block of about 20,000,000 people in the
heart of Europe, But when the task
clung of drawing up the now Polish
frontier a grave problem was en-
countered, and that was the presence
of an tier of German nationality along
the Baltic. These two and a halt i11
lions are the most German of Ger-
mans. They shut off the new state of
Poland from the sen outlet on the Bal-
tic and Poland without a sea coast
would be in economic slavery to Ger-
many. On the other hand, one of the
Wilson fourteen points seemed to for-
bid the annexation of so great a num-
bee of aliens as the Baltic Germans
by the Poles,
At one time the suggestion was
made that Poland should be given a
corridor tlirongh Germany to the ]3a1 -
tic. The objection to this course was
that it would tree on Poland two
boundary lines that she could not de-
fend against Germany. So now it ap-
pears to have 'been decided that the
Baltic G1d'rmans will have to become
citizens of tine Polish state or move
out. Poland is to get her Baltic coast
and Danzig.
Czecho-Slays and Roumania.
Immediately to the south of Poland
and forming a barrier between Ger-
many, on the one hand, and Austria
and Hungary on the other, is Czecho
Slavin. It is composed of Bohemia,
Moravia, Silesia and a part of Hun-
gary, with a total population of 12,-
250,000, and au area of 53,500 square
utiles. ITere, as with Poland, there
was a problem constituted by the Ger-
man population along the frontiers,
and here again it was determined
that in order that Czecho•Slavia should
have natural boundaries these aliens
would have to he included.
The re-establishing of Roumania
was not diflicalt, since Roumania al-
ready existed, and the only task was
to define her new frontiers. These
had already been indicated by the
fact that adjoining Roumania in both
Russia and Austria, were large num-
bers of Roumanans by racial origin.
The original Roumania had an area of
53,000 square miles and a population
of 7,500,000. Under the new arrange-
ment her population and her area will
be doublet•. by the addition of Sesser.
able, Transylvania, Bukovina and part
of Banat.
Most Difficult Problem.
The greatest problem of th'ei map -
makers and negotiators was in the
erection of Jugo-Slavia, which is to
include Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia,
Herzegovina, Crotia-Sllavonia, Carni-
ola and Dalmatia. The population is
homogeneous enough despite the
formidable array of names, and is
made up of the three branches of the
Southern Slav family, namely, the
Slovenes, the Croats and the Serbs.
The difficulty was that while most of
the frontiers of the new state were
natural and easily determined, Jugo•
Slayton and Italian interests and na-
tionalities conflicted in Dalmatia and
about Fiume and Trieste. These were
accentuated by the fact that when
Italy entered the war she was guaran-
teed by Britain and France the Slav
hinterland of Trieste, then Austrian,
but now desired by Jugo•Slavia, of
which our staunch ally, Serbia, is the
controlling partner. At one time this
clash threatened to be serious, but it
is believed to haye been amicably set-
tled, Italy gving up all or most of her
Dalmatian claims in return for Fiume,
which is wholly Italian.
The now state of Jugo-Slavia will
comprise 85,000 square miles, and a
population approxmating 11,000,000.
Poland, with her 24,000,000 popula-
tion, and her 98,000 square utiles, re•
presents a loss to Germany and Aus-
tria of some 50,000 square miles and
12,000,000 subjects; all of Czecho-
Slavia is made up at the expense of
Austria. New Roumania will be made
up of almost half enemy land and
population, and Jug" o-Slavia will cost
the enemy 45,000 square miles and
mora than 5,000,000 population. In all
cases the other kind donor is Russia.
In 1915 prices in Great Britain for
first quality milkers ranged from I:24
to £28 15s per head, as contrasted
with £50 to £70 per head now.

Dogs are among the most widely;

There were none in Polynesia until!
long after Columbus discovered Am-
erica, and at a much later period they
were so unfamiliar in the Maldive
Islande that the natives at sight of
them took to the trees.
The dog was doubtless the first
j mal to be domesticated by man. But
its earliest use was for food. Even,
to -day its flesh is far more widely
utilized as meat than is commonly;
supposed.
The primitive dwarf tribes of the
Philippines, the pigmies of equator-'
ial Africa and the Veddahs of Ceylon,!
when white Europeans first came to'
know them, had one domestic animal
—the clog.
When Columbus landed on the is -i
land of Haiti he found there an excel-
lent breed of dogs, used for hunting
by the natives, who, when not em-,
ploying them in the chase, kept them 4
