AS IT LOONS TODAY
1/ AMERICAN ARRAIGNMENT
OF THE "SUDERMAN'"
England's nerved by' bursting into
Serbia when ouch an attack,was least
expected. But the Suez Canal did '
note fall, nor did England's nerve flut-
ter. She was aroused instead, and
gave Kitchener -the 4,000,000 men he
had asked for.
Strange to say, this was the effect
of Frightfulness everywhere. Infal-
lible Efficiency foretold that an at-
tack on a fishing village, a Zeppelin
raid over London, theeeinking of a
liner, the shooting of an English
nurse, must shatter England's nerves.
Instead, it filled the slow Englishman
with fury, and he entered the army
by the million. To -day there are
kundreds of thousands of Englishmen
in the armies that are pounding Effi-
ciency to pieces on the Somme who
would not be there if it had not been
for Efficiency's masterpieeee--Sear-
borough, the Lusitania, the Zeppelins,
Louvain, Edith Cavell. Once, this
year, Efficiency sent her ships out to
fight manfully, not rnurderously. Af-
ter the battle _was over, nothing was
changed; the sea was still a foe. And
at home Efficiency is busy ,eeranging,
not conquest, but resistance.
Liberty, menaced in 1914, in des-
perate danger in 1915; holds to her
long -endangered faith in 1916 and
sees in the future the salvation of
that faith. Some things are plain
enough already. The old things are
not so easily destructible. The two -
headed god is a false god. Fallible,
Efficiency, Frightfulness unf eared,
constitute together no Superman at

'its face.

• After Two Years of Arrogance, Ego-

tism and rrigkfuluess, End-
ing in Failure.
The New 'York Times reviews the
first two yeara of,the war in a strik-
ing aetiele, which is here given in
, abbreviated form: „..s` ,
The Empire of Efficiency began the
War of Frightfulness on August 1;
1914. On August,l, 1915, the outlook
for liberty and democracy was at its
• darkest. The first year ended with
the Supermen everywhere iii the as-
cendant; the second year ends with
the common men and the little people
coming toward their own. , On the
eve of August 1, 1916, what had been
• the general' faith on the 'eve of Aug.
1, 1914, what had seemed a broken
creed on August 1, 1916, is coming
out plain again from the murk —
that arrogance, egotism, cruelty, and
tyranny cannot conquer the world.
A year ago Efficiency was driving
the Russians pell-mell before it, held
the western allies helpless, was about
_ to begin the destruction ofSerbia and
the working of British disaster in the
Ottoman Empire. Only at sea and in
Africa were the allies dominant. To-
day Efficiency and Frightfulness are
"--` surrounded and beleaguered; they
have no longer any chance of resum-
ing their offensive, and their only
- hope now is to resist so stubbornly
that the result will be a draw—a
peace of exhaustion, a time of re-
cuperation, and the whole thing to be'
fought out again when the wounds
are healed.
The two -headed God of Efficiency
and Frightfulness is not, after all,
superhuman, invulnerable, invincible,
or—what is snore to the point—infal-
lible. EfficiencY blunders'Frightful-
ness flees. On paper, in advance, Ef-

plan was split and shattered by the
ordinary human mind of a French
general who did not' believe in Effi-

• The system of Frightfulness is not
alone a system of atrocities; it is not
limited to the slaughter of women
and children by Zeppelins, submar-

the system of warfare by which you
continually appall your opponent; it
destroys his nerve by its unexpected-

Fifty-five Years of Age, and Famous
For His Energy and Youth-

JAPAN'S PART IN -THE GREAT
CONFLICT.
Lord Buckmaster, the Lord Chan-
cellor, who has been urging every-
body to economize and save all they
can in war time, is one of the most
important men in the Cabinet, for it
is through him that King George sig-
nifies his consent to anything signed
in his name.
The Lord Chancellof' is technically
"the Keeper of the King's Con-
science," advising his Majesty in re-
gard to signing all State documents..
Furthermore, the Lord Chancellor is
the custodian of the Great Seal which
figures on these documents. The Seal
is kept in an elaborate purse made of
the finest purple velvet, heavily em-
broidered in colored silks with the
Arms of -England—the lion and the
unicorn, surmounted by the Imperial
crown. Below is worked in silk a
motto in Latin meaning "FM! God and
My Country."

The extent to which Japan is cloth-
ing, shoeing, arming and munitioning
the Russian army was forcibly pre-
sented to a military observer who
has just return to Paris from a trip
along the Russian front.
"I was astonished," he said, "to.
find -great numbers of Russian sol-
diers clothed from head to foot
uniforms made in Japan, not only the
tunic and trousers, but even the leg-
gings. They carried on their shoul-
ders Japanese guns. Their cartridge
belts were filled with cartridges made
in Jetsam Their leather belts and
buckles were from Japan. And the
stout hobnail shoes they wear are
from hides gathered in Korea and
made into shoes in Japan. So that
there you you see a Russian soldier

Supplies From Korea.
It is an interesting fact that the
Lord Chancellor takes precedence of
every temporal Lord and anyone who
is not a mefnber of the Royal family,
and of all Bishops except the Arch-
bishop of Canterbury.
An interesting confession was made
by Lord Buckmaster on one occasion
„to Mrs. Alex Tweedie, who relates
the incident in her recently -published
reminiscences, "My Tablecloths."
"The most interesting thing about the
office," said Lord Buckmaster, in a
note to kes. Tweedie, "is that it was
held by a woman, Queen Eleanor,
when her husband went to the wars.
The result was disastrous, as femin-
ine justice did not appear to agree
with the proud stomachs of the city."
The appointment of Lord Buck -
master to the Chancellorship in 1914
astonished a good many people, for
his promotion to the highest position
on the Bench with $50,000a'. year
came after only two years as one of
the Law Officers of the Crown. Lord
Buckmaster, however, was, before his
appointment as Solicitor -General in
1913, one of the leaders of the Chan-
cery Bar, where he had a very large
practice. For some years he was a
Chancery "special." "Specials" do

"It is strange," he went on, "that
Russia went to war with Japan over
Korea, and now Korea, the source of
all the trouble, is supplying Russia
with the shoes in which her soldiers
are marching to victory. Korea is a
great grazing country, aand is prov-
ing a vast reservoir of raw hides
which the Japanese are rapidly turn-
ing into boots, • shoes, saddles and
leather furnishings."
-"How did these supplies get from
Japan to the Russian front?" the
observer was asked.
"It was noted," he said, "that
about the only vital point where the
Germans had not been able to send
their submarines was in the waters
of the East China Sea, the Straits
of Korea, and the Sea of Japan.
These are the waters separating

and soldiers during the present war
up to date.
The Military Meal, which was in-

No Lack of Monte Gather in Can-

this year promises to be greater than

Western Canada is how can the crop

The railways are providing special

There is no disguising the serious-
ness of the situation this year so

or are on their way. Despite this
fact, however, there shotild be no
lack of men to gather in Canada's

still continue the good work of the
past two years in helping the Mother
Country in the greatest war the
world has ever known. While Canada
has sent some hundred thousand men
to the war there are still hundreds of
thousands 'more left who have not en-

the making of munitions. These have
now an excellent opportunity of do-
ing a little bit at home to help the

"What sortNf arms and munition
is Russia getting from Japan?" was
asked.
"All sorts," was the reply, "from
the service rifle and small field pieces
up to the big 12 -inch guns. The Jap-
anese 12 -inch is a terrible, weapon,
and they are content not to make any
of the 14 -inch and 16 -inch guns, as
they consider from a military stand-
point that the immobility of the mon-
ster gun offsets its advantages,
whereas the 12 -inch gun is a very
mobile gun and very deadly."

The parcels sent from home, pro-
vided they do not contain prohibited
articles, such as alcohol, patent medi-
cines or newspapers, reach their des-
tination now, it is said. This has not
always been so and in the various ac-
counts published, it comes out strong-
ly, that before the A5erican Embassy
took hold of this much -vexed ques-
tion, not only were the conditions far
worse than they are at present, but
even the relief sent the men from
home commonly proved to them a
disappointment, and, therefore an ad-
ded misery.
Admiral and Mrs. Neeld happened
to be in Germany at the outbreak of
the war, and in November, 1914, were
Mken to a military prison camp.
They were not held there long, how-
ever, but were sent back to Bad
Nauheim, and in December, were re-
leased to return to England.
The Hon. Mrs. Neeld organized 'a,
society for the purpose of relieving
the suffering which she had thus wit -
Dossed, if not shared, for a brief
period. She also started the system

"No, and the report is not correct,"
said the observer. "The Russian ar-

fire, and are getting splendid results.
The only Japanese and French offi-
cers are those temporarily assigned
to explain the workings of a new
piece, just as an expert is sent along
to explain any complicated piece of

companied the big 12 -inch guns, not
to manoeuvre them in action, but to
explain how it was to be manoeuvred.
That is the extent of their help, and
the Russians should get full credit
for what they have accomplished in
operating their artillery. No, the
Japanese have done remarkably well
in arming, clothing, and munitioning
the Russians'but they have not had
a chance to do the fighting."

The hydraulic brake prevents any
appreciable recoil of the gun, which
automatically returns to its. normal

The position of the gun is • not

KRUPP GUN HOSPITAL.
Repair Works Are Located Behind
Front Line Trenches. ,
Quite near the western front in
Flanders the Germans have establish-
ed a miniature Krupp gun factory—a
"cannon hospital," as it has been dub-
bed by the soldiers—.where guns worn
by constant action or injured by en-
emy shells are treated, retested and
then sent back to the fighting line.
Two hundred and fifty workmen work
in this hospital, an interesting ac-
count of which is given by a German
journalist, who was afforded an, op-
portunity of visiting it. He relates
how, when looking at the havoc
wrought by enemy shells on the guns,
it is difficalt to imagine how they can
ever be repaired.
Very often damage occurs to the
wooden -parts, especially to the
wheels. In the woodwork department
are stocked all sizes of gun -wheels, so
that in case of quick need a gun can
be made serviceable in a very short
time at ''the spot where 'the accident
occurred.
After being repaired, cleaned and
thoroughly examined the guns are
taken to a specially built proving
ground. Here the rifling of the gun
barrels is also looked after, and if
necessary they are reground and re -
calibred. Here also guns captured on
the field are Temede for use.
On machine guns for which all ex-
tra parts are made and stored in
readiness, the cooling jackets seem to
be the most vulnerable to rifle bullets.
With oxygen welding apparatus these
repairs and even whole renewal of
the jackets are effected without diffi-
culty, each machine gun being thor-
oughly tested at the proving grounds
before it leaves the hospital.
GAY SHAWLS FEWER.
Effects of of the War in Breton
Country.
A war correspondent in France
writes:
At St. Thegonnec, a village of
Finnisterre, I stood by the famous old
church, watching the peasants come
out from high mass on a Sunday.
The region is noted for the gay
shawls the women wear on holidays;
but now only a few young girls had
on colored shawls. All the rest were
black. It is the custom for the entire
congregation to stroll down the main
street after church and once around
the graveyard before going home. As
I watched them pass, the innkeeper's
wife said to me: '
"Ah, no, monsieur, it is not like
the old days. Hardly a family here-
abouts but is in mourning. Some
have lost one son, some have lost sev-
eral. And how will it all end? Who
knows? There is the Kerlennec fam-
ily. They had four as fine sons as
ofie could wish. Three are dead, and
one is a cripple for life. How are
they going to go on working the land
now? They have a big farm, but the
father is getting feeble, and no help
is to be had. The only thing they can
do is sell the farm. Ah, oui, mon-
sieur! And they will not be the only
ones. It is sad."
I tried to overcome the woman's
depression by felling her of the heroic
name that the Breton regiments have
won for themselves—how they are
known and honored throughout
France—but she only said:
"Yes, the Breton regiments have
suffered terribly."
I learned later that she herself had
lost a son at Dixmude early in the
war.

Soldiere Tind Women Rapidly Asquir-'
ing the Drug Habit.
Startling statements as to the in-
crease of the drug habit among sol-
diers and certain women have been
made in a case against a porter of
Soho, says the London Globe.
Ile was charged with the unlawful
possession of cocaine, and for selling
that drug in boxes not distinctly
labelled with the name of the article
the word "poison," and the name and
address of the seller.
It is declared to be highly desirable
that special legislation should be in-
troduced to cope with what has be-
come a serious social evil. The use
of eocaine is now largely on the in-
crease among women and soldiers,
particularly those belonging to over-
see contingents.

Clarke. "I came aceoss it in my
trousers pocket."
