When Great Britain undertook the cause of her allies, Hclgium and France, the defeat of Germany be- came certain and beyond question, writes l)r. James R. Day, Chan- cellor of Syracuse University, in jLeslie's Maga/ine. Germany might win some battles but she would not win the last one. With Russia closing in from the easit it became madnc-ss for Germany to fire a gun. It meant that Germany would lose her colonies, her com- merce, her industries and the flow- er of her young manhood and that the reigning dynasty would lose its throne. Great Britain has the greatest territorial extent, the greatest population, the greatest taxable wealth and the greatest in- come of any nation. The result will be the return of Lorraine and Al- fiace to Franco, the repair of all damages and the payment of ex- penses to Helgium, a great war in- <!<-mnity to Great Dritain, France and Russia, and a great revolution in Germany that will send William gear, tested every possible kind of sock and stocking.

At the s.a>nie time thpt the soldier is taught these different methods of wrapping the suck, he also learns the anatomy of the foot, and just why the different wrappings relieve the different f(Kt ailments. "After serving his two years in the army." continued the officer, "the soldier goes back to civil life, and becomes, let us say, a clerk at a desk. For ten years he doesn't walk A mile a day.

At the same moment a squadron of German cavalry appeared a short distance away. The British captain then ordered the truck drivers, most of whom were lAindon motor bus chauffeurs, to dismount with their rifles and take a position in a ditch beside the mad in order to defend the convoy.

Two officers in Britis-'h uniform recently brought to a halt the mo- tors belonging to an ammunition convoy as it was proceeding to the British lines of Armentieres with supplies.
