RED GROSS By THOMAS L. MASSON . Editor of "Life" Out where the line of battle cleaves The horizon of woe, , And sightless warriors clutch the leaves, The Red Cross nurses go. In where the cots of agony Mark death's unmeasured tide Bear up the battle's harvestry The Red Cross nurses glide. Look ! Where the hell of steel has torn Its way through the slumbering earth, The orphaned urchins kneel, forlorn, And wonder at their birth Until, above them, calm and wise, With smile and guiding hand, God looking through their gentle eyes, The Red Cross nurses stand. Here, in our sheltered homes we sit, Remote from war's red sweep, Doing half-heartedly our bit, Sleeping our painless sleep. . ' See ! Where the Red Cross flag's unrolled With red, and white, and blue ; Let us pour out our treasured gold To guide the Red Cross true.

and women are conserving the food supply; business men are accepting the handicaps attending a state of war with composure; housewives are economizing in the use of food ; the whole nation seems to understand the gravity, of the situation and the service which it implies. 7 : , : It is especially pleasing to note how the women are contributing to the comf ort of the b?ys in the trenches and with the fleet, Hundreds of articles of comfort not included in the military kit are being prepared here for the fighters. When matrons and young girls resolutely address themselves to the task of learning to knit, spending hours in acquiring the requisite knowledge, and then devoting whole hours to the production of the article, it speaks high for the patriotism of the American women. Seemingly no phase of war preparedness has such universal appeal among the women as that of knitting socks and other apparel for the soldiers and sailors. Wherever one goes in Rich

mond, he sees women plying the knitting needles, busily shaping articles while they are talking or en joying a visit. r v 5 Back of every effort of this kind is the influence of a soul that seeks to alleviate suffering or to contribute to the comfort of a fellow citizen. It is a spirit that is well worth cultivating.

The German Spy System Revelations of the operations of German spies in the United States in the last few days came as a distinct surprise to the American people not because they were ignorant of the work of the Kaiser's agents, but because the ramifications and intricacies of the system were bolder than most of us dreamed thejrcottldjje. Berlin had information about troop movements and departures of vessels that were more accurate and complete than many American of f icers possessed. Traitors and spies have penetrated into places which most of us believed were inaccessible. : The United States, in the very light of last week's reports, will be forced to adopt drastic measures to curb the evil. The American people are squarely behind Washington in its efforts to ferret out the leak and punish the evil doers. We have too much at stake to permit the presence of a system that 'menaces the very heart of our nation. No reflection can be cast on the integrity of our high officials. Their loyalty is unquestioned. If England after three years of warfare, is still bothered with the spy pest, the disclosures in the United States cannot and must not be interpreted as an indication of negligence or sloth on the part of our officials. The menace is a real and dangerous one. To combat it every citizen must be on the alert, and must report to the authorities every indication of espionage that comes to his notice. Your Country Gills

It is gratifying to see how the whole nation has responded to the call to duty. Young men have rushed to the colors; men

Co-operate with R. A. Ogg R. A. Ogg, a Purdue expert, is making a survey of the wheat fields of Wayne county to obtain a list of the high grade stands. This data will be used to advise farmers where to obtain good seed wheat for next year's sowing. The importance of good eed wheat is generally accepted by agriculturists. It is vitally important, however, that extreme care be taken next season in the selection of seed because the

world war will draw heavily on America for foodstuffs. Large crops depend primarily on good seed. Hours and hours of cultivation are futile if the seed that was put into the ground was poor. Mr. Ogg is willing to confer with farmers and to advise them about the selectibn of good seed. He is willing to be your adviser, Mr. Farmer, so feel free to call on him.

GERMANS KICK ABOUT WAR IN

FIRST TRENCHES

Letter Found by Canadians Predicts Revolt in Kaiser's Land.

Rumbling Heard in Saxony Democracy is making things uncomfortable for the bureaucracy of Saxony. Press dispatches late last week told of the demands that were being made in that kingdom for a more liberal participation of the people in their government. A speaker boldly told the diet that the soldiers of Saxony are not fighting because they love their king, but because they love their fatherland. Or in other words, they are tired of royal misrule and autocracy and want a direct participation in shaping, governmental affairs. . German leaders can no longer blink the truth that the people have not suffered heroically, for three years without wondering why they are forced to pay a price that gives them so little in return for the blood of their soldiers and the suffering of their civilians. Democracy is slowly percolating through Germany, presaging a day not far distant when the people of all Europe will have the rights so long enjoyed by the American people. The rumbling in Saxony is as logical'as it is the natural result of conditions that are irksome and unsatisfactory.

Later he sang in a church choir at Muncie and while singing with the Apollo Club was "found" by Mme. Schumann-Heink. Encouragement given by the coal club prompted him to try for grand opera and later he was taken in charge by the Hammersteins and groomed for the grand opera stage.

SURPRISE TO HOME TOWN MUNCIE, Ind., July 9. The filing of the suit for divorce by Orville liarrold, noted opera singer, was the cause of much surprise and comment in his home town here today. Muncie people were under the impression that the singer and his second wife were getting along nicely and nothing regarding a break In the family was intimated by Mr. Harrold when he was here a few weeks ago to visit with his parents and children. The rise of Harrold as a grand opera singer was rapid. In the days that he clerked in a grocery store here and later drove a wagon for the Muncie Casket Company he was induced by members of the Jackson Street Christian Church to sing in the church choir. Dr. J. M.. Quick, a member of the choir, was quick to realize the beauty of Mr. Harrold's voice and he made arrangements for Harrold to take vocal lessons. Local friends then Interested Oscar

Hammerstein in Harrold and a short

time later Harrold left for New York,

where be signed a contract with Ham

merstein: After studying abroad he

returned to New York and made his

debut in grand opera. He was con

sidered a "find" in the musical world.

It was after going to New York that

a difference began to grow between

Harrold and his first wife. Effie Har

rold. This widened until Feb. 17,

1913, when Mrs. Harrold filed suit in

the local courts for divorce, she

charged her husband with cruel and

inhuman treatment, alleging that he

neglected her and their children, and

that his love for her had died out because of the difference In their respective stations in life. She said they separated in September, 1912. In the

divorce trial she produced letters in which Harrold stated that he did not

love her any more and that he wanted

to get rid of her. Harrold admitted

his wife's allegations and told the

court there was no chance for a reconciliation.

The question of alimony was decided

out of court. The custody of the old

est daughter, Adelene, then 13,. was

given to Harrold, and the other two children, Marjorle, then 12, and Paul,

Harrold has returned to Muncie each

children, but never would see his for

CANADIAN HEADQUARTERS IN FRANCE .via London, July S.--Fosse 5, the pit head which overlooked our outposts in Avion, disappeared on Thursday in a cloud of dust and fire. It had been for some time a mark for our heavy artillery, but whether" the destruction was caused by our shells or by the Germans themselves is not known. If they anticipated a further immediate advance of our men they may have blown up the mining works themselves, for it is their policy to leave behind them nothing that would aid in speedy resumption of mining operations in this important coal area. . Much evidence of the lowering of German morale continues to be discovered in captured trenches and raided houses. A remarkable letter was found recently which had, been written to Bavarian at the front three weeks ago. The letter said in part: "One can well understand that you are sick of this horrible business. I believe that the . climax has been reached for now one hears nothing but complaints. The German Social Democrats have announced that if a 6ingle shot is fired in August revolution will follow. "The situation is no longer good. They are on the track of the German kaiser, too, and if it lasts much longer it will be the end of Prussia for the Prussians and the English are the masters. These two alone .are carrying on the war. The others are mere

ly in their hands."

Canadian casualties have been very

light during the past two weeks and

exceptionally so in the killed and missing classes.
