It is ell right for a woman to talc° over a man's work nowadsyya but it ap- Purs it won't do for a man to 'usurp his motlrer'a or hie wife's Joh. M Y • These are the days when people who inherited plain tastes in food or witr o. under the guardianship of seu- sibie people acquired such tastes in their youth are finding out the prac- tleal value of sante. Fact is they are not inconvenienced at all by the Food Board's orders„ They've lived that way all along anyhow. + The German soldiers are receiving -orders to fraternize with the' Allied soldiers in order to gain information and undermine the morale of the lat- ter. All right, let 'em fraternize all they like. The more the German sol- dier oldier fraternizes with the English, American and Canadian soldier the More discontented he'll become with his own condition and the sooner he'll demand peace from his rulers. * eedr- "Have you ever considered this important and astonishing tact that ifter,more than three years of the most desperate war the world ever 'saw, you still are getting three good meals a day." in The Toronto News. Yes, we still have three good meals s day, sometimes even more than that. 'The reason is that we eat our three or more meals a day beoause the material is at hand and give lit- tle thought to the fact that our Al- lies in this "most desperate of wars" may, some of them, not bo having one good meal, Don't let us be so smug,,just because we are divided by tate Atlantic from the scene of omelet. * * When Baron von Richthoten, the famous German airman, was brought down in No Man's Land a few weeks ago a young British officer risked his life to rescue the body 'that it might he given a military burial. Some little time ago we heard a story of a British battalion going out of the trenches for rest and at a distance they watched a fight in the air he- tween au enemy and an Allied aero- plane, After a stubborn fight the enemy plane was so badly damaged that it began to descend and seeing that the enemy was vanquished and was crashing to certain death the young officer in command of the watrtf g soldiers gave the order to . *•nt arms and thus they stood, honoring in death a brave man who had died for his flag, , 1t thrills a British breast to read 'these stories and ono is proud to belong to a race. which produces such men. Count Reventlow of Germany, how- ever, does not approve of the Ger- man press giving the British any credit for such acts of chivalry to .: the foe. He calls it "Advertising." Well, perhaps it is. But one usually advertises the goods one has in stock and we are glad to know that it is that sort of thing that Britain has v • - 'toadvertise, Constance.
