NOI ES AND CO11ENTS ("`^ lord Bryce's argument that Turkey. mus, be expelled from Europe must be answered' if it an, on other grounds than • humanity, With all the talk of "Young Turks" and constitutional goy - eminent and the adoption of modern ideas, Turkey remains practically the stelae QUI atrocity masquerading under the name of empire and government. The more it changes the more it is the same thing. It makes little dif- ference to the hapless Armenians slaughtered whenever the fanatic im- pulses of the Moslem population are excited and loosened that they are murdered under a supposedly con- stitutional regime. The starving non -Moslem peoples of Syria are not greatly relieved by the assurance that they are dying under a system which approaches modern European ideas, according to the Turkish conception. Nor does it matter that great na- tions that are now demanding that Moslem rule shall cease over European territories and over the Christian populations of Asia Minor have had their share in maintaining the Turk in the past. They and the world see moro clearly now. It was necessary not only that certain international jealousies be abated but also that the hopelessness of various methods of reforming Turkish rule be signally demonstrated before e tI e conviction1V]Ct1 On could mature that there was only one way out of Turkish atrocities and that was for Turkish atrocities to get out. 'Ciao nha.rk, ever the despised scav- enger of the seas, has proved at last that he also is "somehow good." Stupid cannibal that he is, creature for the old wives' tale of the menace that lurks in the waters; material, too, for cinema purveyor of horrors, the shark has aow proved his worth in • the eeonor'ay of man's life. Britain, needing leather and trusting to that necessity which proverbially acts the mother to invention, has turn- ed to the shark for relief. And this ancient emit, whose lineage of inutil- ity goes back almost to the time when darkness brooded over the, face of the waters, has responded excellently. Flayed until he parts with his skin, the shark supplies a leather which trade ,imports classify as "very durable and capable of a high polish." Thus the sh too i for was:..

The war began over Belgium, to be sure. There was never any jingo spirit in the people, no matter what the press was saying. But very gradually the real reasons of the conflict began to become common knowledge. Intelli- gent people may decide that there can • be no solution in the field, or that it would be better to leave Germany and Austria intact. But the great mass of people believe that Germany has done unspeakable wrong. And they think that what they are doing is an un- speakable right. They never speak of it, at any rate. But they think of it, night and day. Life goes on almost as usual, getting harder and harder, of course. But they are not flinching. The terms of peace are definite enough for the average Briton. He knows what he is fighting for and he is not concerned with territorial sues- _ tions. He expects the Allies to pool their demands at the end and to ad- just them. But one demand they will not adjust, because it is the same for all. That is that Germany shall not rule over central Europe. To them and to their people the war is the sim- plest, as it is the grandest thing in the world. They do not see that Ger- ninny, actual or potential ruler over everything from Berlin to Bagdad, will necessarily be satisfied with what she has. Nor do they see why they should allow the Serbs and the Croa- tians in Hungary and the Rumanians and the Slovenes and the Lithuanians and the other subject races of Hungary to become the subject nations of the new German Empire. They really be- lieve that they ]re are fighting trig for the liberty of Europe. The things which were only words in 1914 are terrible actualities now.

HUNS AND OTHER BEASTS. In East Africa Make a Picturesque I • Campaign. Reuter's special correspondent with i the East African forces relates the following incidents about the work of a South African Squadron of the Royal Flying Corps: The squadron endured a good deal of anxiety on account of lions. These well-meaning end really quite harm- less, but terrifying animals had closed in behind the marching brigades to feed upon the dead and dying animals that fell by the way. These lions were frequently encountered by men pass- ing to and fro on motors, and one or two were bagged. The corps found difficulty in regard to ground scouts, who would insist upon describing two and three feet high as "short" grass. Such grass is short for East Africa, but it can conceal tree stump: which will rip up the inside out of an aeroplane as it lands at 40 miles en hour with disas- trous effect. In July the pilet :I'-•• had to make a forced landing, the crash rendering him enconsr..ious. When he came to be found in the neighboring kraal a native who spoke English, and with this man's assistance, was able to get to Handeni, but the native paid dearly for his simple act of kindness, for a German patrol visited his kraal afterwards and hanged hien, together with three of his companions. On July 20 Intelligence received in- formation that a raiding party of the eiiemy was marching on the aero-' drome. Flying was abandoned foz the moment, and the squadron turn- ed to the construction of fortifica- tions. The digging of trenches and the building of blockhouses is no part of the work of a flying corps; never- ! theless, trenches were dug, block- { houses were built, and the scouts • sent forward by the raiding party I.must.-have liked the aspect presented :171"hre aerodrome" iii :7 tf1e tiltif' r'e" attack was never made; In August a curious incident oe- ! curred. One of the squadron motor- cyclists, dashing along the roc„ w., n !a despatch, became suddenly aware of a rhinoceros, which bore down upon him, passing close behind him. He got down and hid in the grass. The cycle had been going on low gear, and in ale probability the fumes from the petrol and its curious antics ' prevented the rhinoceros scenting the cyclists and rivetted his attention, for !he spent some time in cautious exam- illation of this new inhabitant of the jungle; then he trotted off, anti our friend, the cyclist, attempted to re- gain possession of his machine. To his horror he perceived the rhinoceros re- turning, and again fled to cover. How- ever, the great beast, which showed signs of having been wounded, dis- appeared, and as his machine was broken, the cyclist had to make his way to camp on foot, passing another bicycle, which had been trampled out of all semblance of a machine by the enraged animal, its owner being no- where to be seen, seeeet i3 Upwe dTR/AL V i d.�:U•G�✓.ALri� „, -4 FULLY gae GU•MA4T£ED CREAM SEPARATOR ASOLID PROPOSITION to send nein, well made, easy running, perfectskimming separator for only $16.05.
