LONDON, Sept. 23.
By every boat refugees from UolRlum
pour Into London. They have lost home,
money, clothing, everything, and but for
the ready and kindly help of the r
Refugees' Committees would be both
friendless and destitute. All that can be
done Sot them Is belnp done, and many
houses In the West End and In the
suburbs of the elty are being placed at
thrlr disposal.
It Is estimated that since the beginning
of the war about 18,000 refugees have ar
rived at Folkstone. The hotels and
boarding houses there are crowded with
them, and they 111 1 the streets In every
direction. But It Is not the usual holiday
crowd which Kolltstono knows so well.
These Bad-faced people who walk soberly
about or gather In little groups to discuss
topics which are of absorbing Interest to
them, are not happy, rollicking holiday
makers nor Is their language that which
Is usually heard at the plctuicsquc te
sort. Folkstone Is now a city of iofu
Kecs. They have come from all parts of
France and Belgium, particularly Bel
glum, and In Increasing numbers as the
days hnc passed. A fortnight ago "c)
people would have boon considered a
large number to arrive In one daj. This
week 5009 Is no uncommon number, and
the vast majority of these hae been
refugees.
They have been of all classes, the very
poor, who are cared for by the relief
committee, being a comparatively small
proportion. Though every boat from Ox
tend and Dieppe now brings a number of
little groups of families, who have evi
dently gathered together all their most
rherlshed possessions in small bundles,
and with little or In some cases no money
In their pockets, the.v have come to Kng
land confident that they will not be
Allowed to starve.
WELCOME IN" STRANG K LAND.
The arrival In Folkestone of each batch
of these refugees Is a most Interesting
atudy and a most ImpressHe one. Their
joy upon stepping for the first time In
most instances, upon the soli of Eng
land Is alwajs evident. They smile at
the officials, who always treat them with
consideration and respect, some of them
cheer and seem, for the moment at least,
Immensely happy and relieved.
Folkestone has seen many happy re
unions and many pathetic disappoint
ments In the last few days. One old man,
' who had been separated from his wife in
Belgium, was on th quay the other day
" "then the Ostend boat came in. "There
she is! There she Is'" he cried, dancing
about In his excitement, .is he explained
to all who were standing by liou they
had become separated, and how he had
doubted If they would ever meet again.
On the other hand there are scores of
people who stand each day for hours out
side the station gates scanning each
face as people pass out, and who come
nway sadly each night when they are
told that the last passenger has left the
Quay.
Last night hundreds of refugees ar
rived at Charing Cross station, most of
them coming from Antwerp. Waiting
for them on the platform were all sorts
of willing, kindly helpers. There were
Red Cross nurses. Boy Scouts, Catholic
priests and a host of lady Interpreters,
who had volunteered for the work. A
fleet of motorcars, organized by the War
Refugees' Committee, was waiting to
take the travelers to their destinations.
EXILES FROM CONVENT.
Not the least pathetic were a party of
nearly 60 nuns of the order of the Little
Sisters of tho Poor, who had been driven
out of their convents In Brinifoli and
other parts of Belgium. English sisters
of their order were waiting for them.
Only one thing was lacking In tho ad
mirable arrangements made for tho re
ception of the refugees hardly any of
tho Interpreters spoke Flemish. Several
of the poorer people knew no other
language, and there were few who could
understand them. Flemish-speaking resi
dents of London who wish to do what
they can for these poor wanderers have
been requested to rummunicate with the
War Refugees' Committee at tho General
Buildings, Aldwch.

The 10th day of the battle on the Aisne and nearby river valleys, from Noyon to the Lorraine frontier, finds the great armies still lined up in front
of each other almost in a deadlock from one of the greatest artillery duels the world has ever known. While the Germans claim to have retaken the
Heights of Craonne, and to have gained a small town near Rheims, and to have attacked the heights along the Mouse, at Vigneuilles, which is near Troyon,
the French claim that these movements of the enemy were without special result, and that the advantage still lies with the allies, especially in their flanking
movement near Mnvnn T.nssitrnv. anH on the left limit of the River Oise where thev -ire tlirpnteninir the forces of the German ripht. unrlcr von Kluk.

LON'DON". Pept 23.
In view of the war raging In Kuropo
nnd the necessity of sending big dinfts
of men to the front, Liberals aie begin
ning to discuss the possibilities of con
scription. If conscription comes, nnd the
probabilities arc that It will, there will be
no time for protest, as It would require
merely an order in Council and not an
act of Parliament. Conscrlptlonlst news
papers, and they form the bulk of the
press at present, are hard at work and
h.ne won the first point. They will now
press their advantage, for they Know
that such an opportunity may never
come again.
Once conscription is upon Hngland it
will hold good. Mr it will not pass at
the end of the war, even In the event of
fiennany being defeated. P.ussla will
afford ample excuse for riveting the
thrall ring of militarism more firmly
upon the throat of the Ungllsh people. A
fortnight ago one had the hope that this
war would see the end of Prussianlsm In
Germany: now a diminishing hope Is
coupled with a lively fear that It may
see the birth of It here. It Is true, no
responsible politician has suggested con
scription, but two months ago no re
sponsible politician suggested war. Lib
erals are nsking Is no answei to be made
to all this agitation or are they to sit
Idly by. helplessly trusting in the
stnbillo of politicians under stress, with
out so much us uttemptinn- to stiengthen
their hands?
Mr. Wells' suggestion that It ought to
be made possibl! for ev-r male in the
countr between 15 and CO to enroll
himself for public service is un that
looked liktJ being carried out, with no
chobe for shirkers, a century ago. when
Kngland was at war with Franco and
America, and ft large number of the
English troops wero tied up In Ireland
At the beginning of 1H statistics wer
pn-pared giving the number f males
whom it would be posslblo to turn int'i
soldiers. Thfl result showed that thcrt
were jU3t 2,741,817 between V and Co
c-apuble of bearing arms. At that time
the population of the I'nlted Kingdom
was under lS.0fO,0v), 4 month or two
later the allied armies entered Paris,
and what might have been a scheme of
universal service was forgotten In the
rejoicings of a temporary pace.

There was one portion of Mr. Asquith's

missal, and excitably people have been '
denouncing cricket and football, th- re

We have a new tariff, lower than any in recent years. Yet
imports have fallen off ten million dollars in a month.
We have a new banking law, designed to put us beyond the
reach of panic. Yet every stock exchange in the country
with two or three exceptions is closed.
We have been blessed with the greatest crops in the history
of the United States. Yet the price of wheat is higher than
at any time in the last 16 years.
In view of these things, are we overstating the case when we
say that in the last two months the world has been turned
upside down ?
Will you pardon us if we ask you if you have adjusted
yourself to this new condition?
Are you going after markets not only abroad, but right
here at home which Europe has abandoned ?

Now, of all times, is the time to have every detail of your
business at your fingers' ends
to inaugurate a new system of sales-records that will be of
as much service to you as a map is to a commander-in-chief.
to place your system of filing on a basis that makes your
business data instantly available.
to substitute card ledgers for book ledgers, thus simplifying
and bettering your bookkeeping department.
to put in operation a better method of keeping track of stock,
so that you will know just where you stand at ALL times.
Gladly will we co-operate with you, For nearly 40 years we
have been brought in contact with the keenest business minds
in the country. And we should like nothing better than to
apply our knowledge of card and filing systems to the better
ment of your business.
Take, as an example, our new method of filing the "Auto
matic Index" a method that indexes itself, checks itself, is
wonderfully quick and amazingly correct. Details on request,
