Henri Bazin Writes: "I Have Come
From the Somme; Evideneies of
Certain Victory at Hand.
I am visioning that sacred thing,
the soul of. a whole people. Many of
those aiding in the baring are uncon-
scious of the treasure they reveal. It
is exemplified in so many countless
ways! Among the cultured and among
the illiterate, the rich and the poor,
the whole gamut that comprises a na-
tion. After the war this sacred beauty
will be covered again. A few poets
will have noted it, written of it. Only
these, and those who note without the
writing, will have been privileged to
see. I could cite you countless in-
stances, and will tell you one,
A Soldier's Story,
I talked with a simple soldier the
other day; indeed, I talk to many,
both of the rank and file. This man
had been born in Paris, He had never
visited the village in the north where,
his mother was born, although fre-
quently promising himself to so do
some time. Not long since he saw its
ruins -as part of a conquering batta-
lion, who, with their blood, bed re-
deemed it from the barbarians. There
remained not one standing house, and
the church wherein his mother had
been baptized, confirmed and married,
showed one jagged corner of tower
reaching up toward a gray sky. Be-
side it was the village cemetery, which
had been the scene of a bloody battle.
He found among the wreckage of
tombs those of his grandmother and
his great-grandmother. To conclude,
in quoting him, he said:
"Monsieur, I knelt there and prayed
for their ,souls and my dead mother's
soul, and for my body's preservation
as le bon Dieu might will, that it be
longer able to serve France. The
broken tower of the church still held
in perfection the face of its clock. It
was stopped at twenty aninutes to
nine. Just below it, without a scratch,
was the niche containing Notre Dame
de Lourdes that Mama had often told
me of. I prayed to her, Monsieur, I
that when — was rebuilt its church
tower would show two clocks—one to
marl;: the time and the other to record

Reverence for Sacred Things.
And as be spoke I thought this
young Frenchman in his reverence
for his ancestors, his country and his
God's house was not only typical of
the thousands and hundreds of thou-
sands in his land, ill their work of
driving evil out of France, but that,
c.oming from a trench, covered with
mud and blood, his prayer beside the
tombs would not only be answered,
but that the act of praying carried
his spirit very close to on high.
BRITAIN TO GROW FOOD.
Great Effort to be Made to Enlarge
Agricultural Area.
Three Government departments in
London are working in closest co-
operation, and are prepared to an-
nounce the plan for revolutionary
methods of feeding Britain with home-
grorvli foodstuffs. These departments
are those of the Director of National
Service, the - Agricultural Secretary,
and the Foocl Controller.
Neville Chamberlain, Director of
National Service, will announce very
shortly the classification of all indus-
tries into essential and non-essential
classes. Workers, including women,
from the non-essential industries will
be enrolled to till the land and become
real food producers. Mr. Chamberlain
has been relieved of the necessity of
organizing the nation's military .forces
and will direct his energies toward
the civil side and the work of trans-
forming consumers into producers.

plots along their right of way upon

Fashion
Fads
having been used over and over again
are still counted among fashionable
materials.
Green seems to be good for early
spring wear and ranges from the pale
chartreuse to the deep forest tone.
One of the fortune tellers of fashion
predicts that queer and intricate cutis,
laxge collars, straightup

lines, and a lifted waist will he fea-

Tussur and pongee have few rivals
among the materials for suits and
dresses. With splashes of bright
colors in huge dots or squares against
a white or natural background, they
make the most fascinating sports

For the Boudoir
A negligee with angel sleeves is one
of the latest offerings for the woman
who loves to b daintily and becoming-
ly attired in her boudoir. A sketch
is shown here, The negligee is of
crepe de Chine, with fine ;:ace edging
around the collar and pockets, and
sleeYes of deep lace flouncing. The
pockets and sleeves are weighted with.
silk tassels.
Boudoir caps of net, chiffon and
lace trimmed with ribbon are still
seen in great numbers. A very
pretty cap of blue chiffon with a pleat-
ed net ruffle and long streamers of
blue ribbon is a recent importation'
from Paris. A large pearl ornament
was placed in front. Another cap of
cream net was trimmed with narrow
blue ribbon in lattice effect around the
edge. Tiny pink rosebuds held <doven
the lattice where the ribbon erosded
itself. A ribbon bow on the crown
and a soft ruffle to frame the face
completed this dainty trifle. Steep
caps are easily made from scraps
which you may have left over. in the
house.

MIReWLES OF DEVOTION:
Amazing Sacri1icee Made by the Wo'
men of France.
French women, particularly the
poor, were represented by Ernest
Lavisse in his report to the French
Academy on the distribution of vir-
tue prizes as having during the war
honored France by the virtue they
have shown. "Women --nearly rill
poor --school mistresses, working wo-
men, domestics, have worked miracles
of filial piety, devotion and charity,"
said he, "Servants, faithful to their
employers, Wien into distress, serve
them without wages, and even in cases
aid them by sacrificing slowly accumu-
lated economies to pay their debts.
One of them Is raising seven children
of her dead employer. Another 80 -
year -old servant is raising five or-
phans. A widow, mother of three chil-
dren, has taken charge of six orphans.
One mother of thirteen children has
extended her maternal care to fifteen
orphans."
The Country With Largest Merchant
Marine Will Lead Post -War Trade.
That British exports in 1916 should
have been of record volume, about
$2,500,000,000, speaks with clarion
note of the war -time service of the
British merchant marine, The British
Admiralty had under requisition a
l month or two ago about 60 per cent,
of the merchant tonnage. The Gov-
ernment has compulsorily purchased
many vessels. Government orders re-
quire 80 per cent. of space on British
freighters in ordinary service, to be
reserved on home -bound trips for
Government material—foodstuffs and
munitions. British freighters are for-
bidden to carry neutral freight be-
tween neutral ports without special
permit. German submarines and
raiders have destroyed two million
tons gross of British shipping. In fact,
the British merchant marine has had
to undergo a most extraordinary com-
bination of losses from enemy activ-
ities, of requisition for military ser-
vice, and of cargo restrictions in the
national interest. That it should have
also carried record British exports de-
monstrates a capacity and endurance
little short of marvellous.
Serving British and Allied interests
magnificently in war -time, the British
merchant marine will be Britain's
main dependence after the war to re-
cuperate its economic strength. Ger-
man. shipping interests are calculating
on extraordinary building, to restore
Germany's lost trade. The rivalry in
warship construction being ended by
Britain's unchallengeable supremacy,
Germany will undertake rivalry in
merchant' ship construction. But the
British shipping firms have to face,
not only the burst of German energy,
but formidably strengthened neutral
