Because our men are going ahead and, fighting like the, real men they are and have got the Germans going! Got them running, retreating! Our men, three hundred thousand strong, and the French army! Why, it's Just wonderfulf Mag nificent! Not that we did not know they would If they once got over there In force enough. I'll bet Germany is smiling on the other side of her face these days, whining and telling her men that our men do not fight like men, our clean, stralght-from-Uio-shoulder American boys! P Not fighting like men because they will ngni in tne open uko spuria ana cnuse those low, whining creatures ahead of their bayonets. I tell you July IS "and 19, 1918, will stand out in history for many a year to come. It won't do to boast and we must re member that the other countries have borne the burden for nearly four long years and 'we are going into it fresh and courageous and unbeaten at any time so 'far. But the very fact that the Allies have got them on the run now means that there will be fresh Impetus and fresh heart in all the armies, and a possible decisive victory and peace do not seem so far off. Let us not forget to praise God for it all. AND that reminds me. I heard that 'Sid Thayer, one of the five boys from here to Join the marines in the very be ginning of the war, has written home, and that he told of the fight In which Bob Reath was killed. He went over the top three times in two days and took seven Germans He has been commissioned a second lieutenant. Think of it, not yet twenty and doing such work for his coun try! Isn't it splendid' I HEAR that Tommy Hart, who was transferred from tho infantry to the aviation Just before most of Hancock sailed, has now been sent to the Princeton aero school. Hls wife, who was Margaret New bold, Is spending the greater part of the summer In Cape May with her mother, Mrs. Harry Adams, who has a cottago down there. Tommy nnd Margaret were married in May at St. Mark's, you remem ber. DID you hear the Interesting thins about Mary Montgomery? You know she was over in France for quite a long time r 'tAr.k with tUa Tri rrnc Rho rnmft hank t.-ft .. " - - ," about six or eight months ago and was getting ready to go back. You see, she was "over there" before we got into the war, and so there never was any1 question' about her. Well, what do you think she found when she applied for her passports to' return? Why, she could not go. And after all the splendid work he ,had done. Tho thing was, she ought to have stayed over, because do you know she has no less than four brothers In the service of the country, so, 'of course, she can't go back In spite of her efficiency and knowledge of things "over there." Perhaps she might have fussed and got ten round it, but she told a friend of mine that when she first went over she had made two resolutions and she had not Ai" tn-nVon tViom vot nnH h felt thev were necessary to make and keep if she was to be a real help, to her country. The resolutions were: First, no matter what happened she would not quarrel with her fellow workers. Second, she would never refuse to do anything she was asked to do. And so when the Red Cross said she could not go, but they wanted her to be here in Philadelphia as dlvlbion Warehouse Superintendent of Department No. 2, Red Cross of Philadelphia (that's her official title) she did not demur, but accepted the work and gave up all Idea of trying to go over. ' Her brothers who are in the service are William W. Montgomery, Jr., who married Fanny Brock, you remember: Colonel Robert Learning Montgomery, whose wife was Hope Tyler; Archibald Montgomery, Jr., whose wife was Catherine Elliott, and John L. Montgomery, who is unmarried. JThey are the sons of Mr. William W. 'Montgomery, of Radnor, by his first wife. ' AS I HAVE at various times and fro- Xxquently remarked, it's all In the point of view, and when Emily had been told she must always be brave and do brave things she thought she might as well pass the good news on to small brother Guian. However, she did not say this In public. It was all in her busy little mind. You see it's when you trace things back to their sources that you find out the workings of the other person's mind. I know a girl who often starts her re- lijw marks by saying "inai reminas me," ana then asks some "absotlvely" -irrelevant question and changes the whole trend of tr conversation, ai iirsv x uiuumit it waa Eft Just because she felt she had to entertain ftp and so did not listen to the conversation. l but waited for a chance to butt in and tell Sj 'some story she thought was clever 'or w amusing. Well, one day some one, who r&Cfaad evidently noticed the same thing, said: F?, "How do you mean that reminds you? We rr weren't talking about anything like that." And, if you'll believe me, she explained ' how .a remark made about three sentences ' before about a certain place had opened up R:. train nf thonrrht. and she had followed it r .,...-. ,-. -- - - along, noi realizing hi an umi every one else was not following that train of ;" thought, and In she broke1 at the first 'V opening. You have got to get inside of V other people's minds to understand, and vi now I don't feel impatient when I hear her. little sentence, because I see it really ' does follow a train of thought and is not E Vnn effort to make conversation.

Announcement that Herbert Hoover had arrived safely In England disclosed one of the important purposes of the many-sided mission which took him abroad. Mr. Hoover Intends to educate the Britisher to cat pork, and It is pork with a capital "P" for the American hog this year. Due to the period of toft corn, hogs range fifty to seventy-five pounds overweight. With the exception of bacon, and he likes that lean, the Englishman will have little to do with pork. "Bully" beef ho Insists upon, so the American food administrator, charged with working off America's surplus of poik, left Washington with his aides July 8 highly dubious of his success In putting over fat hogs on the civilian populations of the British Isles and France In lieu of the beef which must go to the men In' tho trenches. But the education Is bound to come under Mr. Hoover's persuasive spell, according to those who accompanied hjin, Including Joseph I'. Cotton, head of the meat division of tho food administration. They expect a new American invasion of Europe in the form of the American porker. . After press cables today announced Mr. Hoover's arrival the food administration made public the names of the members of his party. Besides Mr. Cotton he was ac. companled by James W. Bell, head of the milling division; George S. Jackson, vice president of the grain corporation, and Lewis Strauss. Mr. Hoover's secretary, Mr, Hoover's chief purpose is,, to confer with tho food authorities of the European Allies In order to ascertain their requirements nnd to determine the program necessary on this side of the ocean In order to meet these requirements. Dr. Alonzo Taylor, of the food administra tion, a Phlladelphlan, who has wide experi ence with the food problems In Europe since the outbreak' of the war there, preceded Mr. Hoover by several weeks and has been gathering" data and Information for use at the conferences. The first meeting of Mr. Hoover with the European food controllers has been set for Monday, July 22, In London. What's Doing Tonight I'lilladrlplll Band plays on City Hall plaza.

MAN KNITS SWEATERS ANDISPRMJDOFIT Joseph Sontlcr, 74, Wears Apron as He Wrestles With the Woo' For some time past various nnd sundry Philadelphia men have been surreptitiously knitting, but the tmjorlty have lacked the moral courage to come out and say that they like It and Intend to keep on nt It, and have knitted, for example, twenty-one sweaters since Marcn 21 But Joseph Snuder, 2073 Elkhart street. Is very proud of his record, his stitches nnd himself generally He has knitted twenty-one sweaters since March 21 sixteen for the Ked Cross "Ye.s," he obseived, looking at n rich brown sweater with nn affectionate rve, "I wns rldln' In the car one day and I saw the women knlttln', and it amused me. And I said, "I leckon I could do that too.'" So he complacently finished n line, switched around deftly and went on, "So I did. I've never been taught I just do it by Instinct. Now, look at that cuff, will you? You couldn't find nn thing better than that, could oti?" he asked naively "Yes, even If I do -nv It mjself, that cuff can't be beat Yes, I've Knit sixteen sweat eis for tho Bed Cioss.

He was sitting in n big nrm chair, the sunlight pouring in through tho bay window nnd lighting up nn Immaculately neat bed room He looked comfortable and happy, and, In spite of the continual trembling of his hands, seemed hale and hearty with his ruddy bearded cheeks and twinkling blue ejes. A large white npron was tied around his waist and beside him a table set forth with wool and fresh and crippled knitting needles. To get a vivid Idea of Mr. Soudcr's patriotic zeal one hai only to look at the needles that once were but are no longer twisted into the most appealing shapes. They must have fairly writhed under the swift fingers of this veteran knitter. "I begin knitting In the morning," went on Mr. Souder, "nnd I stop nt night because I ought to. If I had my own way I reckon I'd Knit nil night long. Sow, I don't knit socks an' I'm not going to, cither. No I like big ger game ; I like somethln' to show nfter I've been knitting.

Hampton Moore Washington, July 30. TT SEEMS strange to men who come here from Kansas and Iowa nnd Oregon when told that tho Liberty Bell district In Phlla delphla docs not contain a single acre of farm land. They don't understand that kind of congestion. And while it is truo that not one acre of unimproved ground remains vvlthfn the old Third Congressional boundary lines, there arc a good many men there whose sympathies run to agrl cultuie. Probablj; the most conspicuous of them Is Senator David Martin, leader of the Nineteenth Wnrd', who long ago yielded to the allurements of the incubator and the silo. Out nlong'tho Welsh road at Holmes burg, tho Senator has somo bioad nnd fertile acres, so well and scientifically tilled ns to put him high up In the ranks of the horny-handed. But like his western bi other, the up-town leader has been keep ing his eye on the labor situation. If bo ultimately feels the pinch like tho west-' crners nro reporting It, It may become necessary to draft James C. Handly, William Turner, of the Quarter Sessions; John Hunting, John Leonaid and maybe Councilman Buchholz to help get In the crops. The situation Is said to be acuto .In States like Nebraska and Iowa. A few days ngo General Crowder was appealed to by a Nebiaska representative to permit a young farmer to stay out of the draft long enough to garner 160 acres of wheat and 112 acres of corn that he had planted to help the food situation. All his male lelativcs wero In the service and he was unable to find a laborer anywhere to care for tho ciop. Tho Piovost Maishal General said the necessities of the Allies wero so urgent that no exceptions, oven for tho laudable purpose of saving the grain, could bo made. If tho Welsh road farm is hit like that somo husky Nineteenth Warders will have to get busy about harvest time. CONGRESSMAN DEN HUMPHREYS, of Mississippi, is said by his colleagues from that State to represent tho "blackest district In tho United States," In that ho has In his constituency fewer white people and more of Afilcan descent than any other member. Congressman Ben Is sym pathetic with the black brother, and keeps a fund of good dialect stories on tap.

PUPILS AID FRENCH RELIEF Barry School Children Contribute 1000 Pen nies for Canned Milk A ..thousand pennies, contributed by chil dren of Boom 35, Commodore John Barry School, for French 'war relief, bought 10U cans of evaporated milk that will ro across the ocean with the next shipload of necessi ties for French war victims One big box of milk has been assigned to a children's hospital, the other to Malson Claire, a series of orphanages. Milk Is so scarce In the part of France devastated by war that the gift of the youngsters will be of immense value In nourishing wasted little bodies. Cows are few and expensive over there It has not been long since generous Philadelphians con tributed through the French war relief com mittee of the Emergency Aid to the purchase of a cow so that the soldier inmates of a hospital might have the valuable aid of plenty of fresh milk. With the boxes of milk will go numerous other supplies for children, such as are fur nished by workers who make small frocks and undergarments for little French persons.
