THE appointment ot Bainbridge Colby by President Wilson to be secretary of state, succeeding Robert Lansing, is Interesting in view of the fact that Colby is a progressive Republican. But the surprise the appointment mis-ht have caused is lessened
because of the tact he has held several
offices to date un
der the Wilson ad
ministration. Colby Is 51. He was born In St. Louis and was gra d u a t e d from Williams college in 1890. He beean the
practice of law in
c ': s New YorK isaz.
J He gained atten-
ti 's tion by h,s work in
,'l ol iviaris. x wain a " "! publishing house.
He was also one of the counsel of interests which
! "brought about re
forms in the EquitLife Insurance investig a t i o n. He
wa3 closely associated with Roosevelt in the formation of the Progressive party, leading the fight to seat the Roosevelt delegates at the Republican
convention in 1912. He was a Pro
gressive candidate for United States senate from New York in 1914. He
had been a member of the New York assembly in 1901-02. During the war he was named by President Wilson as a member of the shipping board ad the emergency fleet corporation. He was a delegate to the inter-allied conference at Paris in 1917. He was also a member of the New York defense council.

about sun up. Thin does not hold good any more, for milk men put in enough hours during the "reign of darkness" to be classed with the "gallant 500" night workers. Richmond demands fresh bread and rolls for breakfast, so the baker has to be on the job. He starts to work around 4 p. m. and winds up about 4 a. m. Local baking officials estimate that 20 men are employed in dough mixing while Richmond is in dreamland. To take care of those that "come borne with the milkman" Richmond
that thousands of Americans with
money in their pockets are due to arrive this summer. Engand, France and Belgium are expected to attract most ot the tourists, and the proposed tours of the battle zone are already
legion. Several world conventions to be held in Iondon this year are to be attended by a large number of Americans. The world meeting of the women's Christian Temperance Union Is to convene in London on April 18. and after the convention the American delegates are to tour England and the sector in France where the Americans took part in the fighting. The world!Peace conference of Friends will btf held In August and is to include many American Quakers. Although there is a certain amount of red tape still surrounding the obtaining of passports, tourists will probably not find it difficult to obtain the desired papers. Europe does not wish to put any obstacles in the way
ot the tourists. It can use their money nicely. Persons who have not been abroad since the war will be unpleasantly surprised by the high prices. Hotel bills and railroad fare will be two greatly inflated items, and everything else is about three times as much as it used to be. One difficulty the tourist must surmount is the room shortage, even now there are not enough housing accomodations, and the tourist
without lodgings of any sort are submitted to profiteering charges by hotel and lodging house keepers.
