ALLIES PROMISE
AID TO POLAND
French and British Mission. to
Warsaw Arrange for Succor.
A despatch from Paris ,says:—The
allies have decided to take measures
preparatory to giving military aid to
Poland, if that should prove necessary.
A. French mission headed by Jules
J. Jusserand, French, Ambassador to
the • United States who is . home on
leave, with General. Weygand, right-
hantl man of Marshal Foch, and M.
Vigilon, a close collaborator with Pre-
miee Millerand, left on Thursday night
for Warsaw to arrange for prompt
succor to the. Poles. On the same- train -and with the
sortie object there was a British mis-
sion headed by Lord D'Abernon, Bri-
tish Ambassador at Berlin, General
Radel'il'e and Sir 'Maurice Hankey.
Thesemissions, it is learned, leave
with full authority to say to the Poles
that whatever aid is necessary, either
military or financial, or in the nature
of supplies, will be forthcoming if the
Bolshevists persist in a design to
march into distinctively "Polish terri-
tory,
It is stated unofficially, but on high
authority, that this means help for
Poland in the form of troops if they
.are required.
Already a large number of allied
officers and subalterns are with. the
Polish army, which, it is declared; will
be increased according to circum-
stances with as many divisions of in-
fantry,tank detachments, air forces
and artillery as may be transported
.in due time. -

With this astonishing request my

whether I was really on a liner bound

I was shown the way a few minutes
ago to the Victorian's Marconi apart-

"Chelmsford in Essex wishes to

The result of the subsequent con-

FATE OF SUVLA
HEROES DISCOVERED
Skeletons of Intrepid British-.
ers Found at Gallipoli.
A despatch from London says;—One
of the Mysteries of the war, the fate
of part of a battalion of an English
Territorial regiment; 'the Fifth Nor -
folks, in the fighting at Salve Bay,
Gallipoli, has at last been solved.
Sir Ian Hamilton, in his despatch
on the fighting' around Anafart^, on
August 12, 1916, referred to the fate
gf -the battalien as a very mysterious
thing. On the. night of the attack they
found themselves less`•etreimously op-
poded than the rest of the brigade and,
under Colonel Sir H. Beauchamp, the
men eagerly pressed forward, Some
were wounded or exhausted and found
their way back to camp,
"But the Colonel, with 16 officers
and 250 men," continued Hamilton's
despatch, "still kept pushing on, driv-
ing the enemy before them. Among
these ardent souls was part of a.fine
company enlisted from the Ring's
Sandringham estates. Nothing more
was ever seenor Beard of any of torn.
They charged into the forest and were
lost to sight and sound: Not one of
them ever came back."
The forest into which the battalion
gallantly charged was never retaken
by British troops. A few men who
fell into the hands of the Turks, it
was afterwards found, bad fallen out
of the attack earlier, and not a man
of Col, Beauchamp's force was made
prisoner,
Rev. C. S. Edwards has just return-
ed from a visit to the peninsula on
graves registration work.. He says
that on going over Anafarta Plains
he found skeletons of the men of the
Fourth and Fifth Norfolks, the Fifth
Suffolles and the Fourth Hampshired
over a mile in front of what was after-
wards the first-line trench,
Apparently the battalions had ad-
vanced in perfect order and to all ap-
pearances had been caught by ma-
chine-gun fire. One man had . taken
cover behind a stone, and a large pile
of empty cartridge cases round his
skeleton showed he had defended him-
self to the last. Just behind the Nor-
folk front line Mr, Edwards came
across the remains of about fifty men
who had fallen in a grim hand-to-hand
struggle. Touching each other lay
the bodies of Britons and Turks, the
heads of the latter facing the sea and
those of the attackers toward their
adversaries' lines.

WRITTEN BY THE LATE
EMPRESS EUGENIE.
Historic Correspondence With
" Kaiser Regarding Claim to
Alsace-Lorraine.
The death of Empress Eugenie has
revived. interest in tate historic cor-
respondence between her • and the
Kaiser which was responsible, for the
revision of President Wilson's views
early in the days of tho peace confer-
ence that Germany's claim to Alsace-
Lorraine might have a more solid
foundation than Premier Clentenceau
was willing to admit, says a Paris des-
patch,
It is understood here that the Em -
Press's documents—at Least those con-
nected with French history—will be
placed in the French national arch-
ives, and historians here are already
predicting that this legacy by her will
go a long way toward establishing the
Empress's patriotism.
According to a highly placed official
here, the Empress wrote to tate Kaiser
in 1870 begging him not to be too
harsh, especlaily in connection with.
Alsace-Lorraine, which the Empress
considered essentially French In tra-
ditions, habits and desires,
Kaiser Disclaims Responsibility.
To her letter the Baiser replied,
acknowledging the justice of her state-
ments, but saying that he alone was
not responsible for tate Government's,
decision that Germany needed these
provinces in order to prevent future
aggression by the French.
It wa,s this letter that Premier Ole-
•mencenu asked the Empress's permis-
sion to present to the "Big Four" and
which convinced President Wilson
that his attitude regarding the restora-
tion of these provinces to France was
based on a false premise.
The Kaiser's real fear at the out-
break of the European war was that
Russia was mobilising rapidly and
would out -distance the German Em-
pire, This, more than hatred of the
other European nations, induced him'
to yield to the pressure from the Prus-
sians aux] loosen the chains of the
world conflict,
This explanation of the Kaiser's
act, despite his constant declarations
that he was an enunisary of peace and
not of war, forms the basis of the lead-
ing
eading chapter of a volume of war medi-
tations. published by Princess George
of Greece, formerly Princess Marie
Bonaparte, which is attracting the at-
tention of leading French military and
literary 'critics.
German People Deluded,
"Then the German people, believing
themselves assailed by Russia and by
France, acclaimed the preventive
move Beaded by their Emperor," the
Princese'says. , ,•
Wilhelm's greatest fault, she adds,
was to have been for se many years
the glittering chief p1 the Prussian
General Staff, "His crime was to have
breathed constantly, the jdeas' of his
entourage," she says; "to have lived
constantly in" the professional uniform
of war kid to have brandished, when-
ever he spoke, the ewerd which was al-
ways carried by him as the symbol of
Germany's might,"
The mass of the German people, the
Princess asserts,. did not want war,
but the officers of the Prussian 'fac-
tion; dreaming of gluey and of dole:Hal
sands to be conquered., overwhelmed
even the wisest of the German intel-
lectuals,
"Added to .this, there VMS the pres-
ence of an important heli, the Crown
Prince," she says. - "Slowly, but sure-
ly, the militarists convinced the people
that force was the only means of
breaking the encircling challis by
which. the strong nations,. prevented
German conquest of other colonies, as
well as European expansion."
y --
Incompleteness.
Few things are finished, and that
which has attained the rounded full-
ness of perfection is not always
supremely interesting. We all know
of many lives that were cut short amid
general exclamations of pity. It was
said that the youth was of great
promise, and doubtless it was true.
Our human hearts have borne an al-
most intolerable weight of grief for
the lives of the young men taken in
the war—the young men with whom
the world's destiny and the hope of
the future seemed to lie. A sheer,
piteous waste of men -power. it was,
and it robbed posterity as well as our
Men time. But in those lives ended
so soon there was not promise merely
—there was performance: Many whose
tern of years has been comparatively
brief have done more for the welfare
of their fellows than those who spent
their long, long time upon earth chief-
ly in ease and self-indulgence and the
habitual avoidanee-of hard things.
We think we see Wreckage and ruin
round about us, in precious lives as in
perishable material, but it is for a
Power infinitely greater and higher
than our own to pronounce a verdict
as to what is whole and what Is in-
complete. , Our knowledge is but par-
tial, our vision is blurred, our verdicts
are qualified y our many and serious
limitations,
Much may have been done in what
looks to our mortal sight like the frag-
ments of a lifetime. If we cannot in
our term of days have all that we
desire, let us learn how much we may
do with the portion that is granted in
answer to our petulant requisitions.
The Chinese have a proverb, "Half an
orange tastes es sweet asa whole
one." There is wrapped up in that
aphorism a deal of wisdom. We learn,
when we have little and must make
much of it, how foolish we were when
we had a great deal and complained.
When we must use what v'e have in-
stead of repining for that which we
have not, we develop all manner of
unsuspected resources. We surprise
ourselves with the discovery that we
can do what heretofore was looming
formidably among the impossibilities.
If the work of the world had to be
done by machine and tools utterly
perfect; or if society had to depend on
complete and flawless individuals, the
life of this planet would be at a stand-
still, The responsibility for carrying
forward the business and maintaining
and repairing the soeiell fabric rests
with agenedes and individuals far from
ideal, doing the beat they can,

Europe Struggles Back
to Solvency and Prosperity
During the war it was often hard
to.toll from the articles in the news-
papers what the precise truth about
the military situation was. To -day it
is almost as difficult to tell what is
the precise situation financially and
Industrially in France, in Germany
and in Italy. Correspondents are
hopeful or depressed according to their
temperaments, to the course of their
information, or to the effect they wish
to produce on their readers, There is
still propaganda, commercial and
political, mixed with the impartial and
conscientious news that some report-
ers send across the ocean, and it is
often hard to separate the'trustworthy
from the disingenuous,
But it is clear enough that Western
Europe is :getting to work again. It
is recovering from the condition of
shocked end dazed suffering into
which the war plunged it. The only
question is whether the burden of war
debt laid upon the shoulders of the
people is too great to be successfully
borne, even by willing and thrifty
workers. The best opinion is that it
is not. If Western Europe does not
fall again into the chaos of war, it
will gradually work its way back to
solvency and prosperity. The weak
spot is Germany, for the morale as
well as the resources of Germany has
been sadly weakened. And yet in 'Ger-
many it is political rather than busi-
ness incapacity that menaces the
state. The present government is•
timid and ineffectual; yet any other
would be still more clangorous, for the
radical socialists would inevitably
swing Germany nearer the fatal policy
of the Bolshevllci,'and the monarchists
would'restore a Germany that no one
else could trust,
France is hard at work and doing
nobly. Although half of its men be-
tween the ages of twenty and forty
are gone, it is repairing the losses and
ravages of war and beginning to cut a
figure again in international business.
CzechoeSlovalia is actually prosper-
ous—the brightest spot anywhere in
Central Europe. Italy has had its
troubles and has more before it, but
it 'seems every week to stand a little
firmer on its feet. Belgium is in good
case, working steadily and industri-
ously..Only. in the dismembered frag-
ments of the Austrian Empire, in de-
feated and humiliated Germany and in
Eed Russia is the economic situation
discouraging'. Russia of course is the
key to tite situation in Central and
Eastern Europe, and that key will not
unlock the gate to industry and pro-
duction while the Bolshevik theorists
prevail. Western Europe meanwhile
struggles to its feet slowly and pain-
fully but with courage and determine -
ton. .

people take politics' energetically and
business casually. George A. Btr-

lin by describing the experience a
stranger who wants to hire a house 18
pretty sure to have with his house
agent. Everywhere else the house
agent is a striking citizen; not so
in Dublin,
House agents are agreeable and
friendly men, who have long printed
lists' of possible habitations on which
the number of rooms, rental end other
details are plainly ,e'et forth, The as-
piring tenant takes the list and gees
to Howth end searches out a house
that seems to be the tiring he wants.

parlor maid, who tells, him that it was
to be let once, but was taken on a long
lease six months ago. Still hopeful,
the searcher goes to Rathfa.rnham and
finds another house. It is indubitably
to be let. There are bile to that effect

Bat he does net scratch it off. After
all, it may be vacant again some day.
Faced with the fact that the house
at Rathfarnham is inaccessible, he ex-
presses astonishment,
"Well, now," he says, "aren't some
