Th Boy Scouts of Washington, I. C. not only have made two ears of corn grow whera one grew before. In the fields Pbout the Nation's capitol. but they have made as many as five, sis and seven ears grow where none grew before! Knlistlng as regulars In the great Food Conservation army of the Food Administration, they planned and planted their crop unaided. The crop which they gathered from the reclaimed mud-flata of the Potomac In particular. Is worthy to be representative of the efforts of the nation. Visitor from all over the United States and the whole world who have driven and motored in Potomac Drive, known as the "speedway," back of the Monument, have wondered all spring and summer about the beautiful corn crop which nodded in the breezes from down the river. Who planned it. whose was it. and who was going to take it away, were dally questions asked of th j chauffeurs and cabbies who piloted the visitors about. Very few knew the answer to all of the questions, but now there Is no need to ask them. A perfect swarm of small persons in khaki, replicas of their older brothers across the sea, are flocking into the corn fields and stripping the fall stalks of their juicy burdens. The Boy Scout Food Administration regular are way p and "orer the top", when it comes to growing corn.

St. Gervais church, which was damaged by the shell from the long rangtUerman gun on Good Friday, has been sufficiently repaired to permit its doors to be opened, and worshipers flocked thither to the shrine where once women and children praying for France's liberation were sacrificed. But if it was prayers for the dead that were sung at St. Gervais on Good Friday it was Te Deums and hosannas of victory that Aflated to the heavens yesterday. As Paris emerged from the churches it overflowed upon the cheerful boulevards or sought temporary abode in cafes bathed in sunshiae and everywhere one heard no longer the familiar and hopeful cry of "we shall get them." but the satisfied and contented exclamation: "We have got them." Unconditional surrender characterizes the general comment. It is felt that Germany and her allies have not gone far enough for an armistice, and that, although they have stated that they are willing to talk peace on President Wilson's plana, they have not shown submission, such as was forced upon Bulgaria.
