"How complete? Is It adequate at all times? in your experience has It ever failed mem?" well.' I said, striving to be exact ana yet not waste words, "like mose of the German military equipment It seems to me to be somewhat cumber some but highly efficient. Certainly u is perfect In detail and in oreanl- atlon. There Is always an abund ance of food for the troops In the neid; and always there Is a determln ed effort to get the food up to the mrn on the fighting lines and to have It hot when it reaches them and to have plenty of It for them. It Is not Particularly appetizing In Its appear ance, but it is wholesome and abund ant, and X know a man can live on It and be well nourished. I know, be cause I lived on it myself for upwards or a week." There Is meat In the ordinary ra tion then?" he asked. Tes." I said "veal generally; sometimes beef; bacon and sausage frequently. I should say the German soldier averages one filling meal of mett a day. at least." "Lord Kitchener," I said, "in vour opinion how long will this war Iat?" "Not less than three years." he said. It will end only when Germany Is thoroughly defeated, not before de feated on land and on sea. That the allies will win Is certain. That for us to win will require a minimum peri od of three years I think probable. It might last longer this war might. It might end sooner. It can end In only one way. At Least Three Years. That It will end In a month from now, or six months or a year, I do not think likely; so, to be on the safe side, I say three years at least three years. "If Germany gives up sooner, so much the better for Germany and for us and for all the world. If three years are required for the undertak ing, or more than three years, the world will find that we, for our part, are prepared to go on, and ready to go in, and determined to go on, and certain to go on. In any event thl war can have but one outcome one ultimate conclusion." His big Jaw muscles twltphed. "Tho Germans still think they will win," said Ird Kitchener next, speaking with the Inflection thut made the remark part plain state ment and part question. "I wonder how long a time they think It will take them to win?" (ernians Change Schedule. 'They are still fully confident." I said; "but they have changed their time card. When I first landed on German soil, early In September, be fore the campaign against Paris had been checkod, Germans of Intelli gence said It would take Germany six weeks to whip France, and six months to whip UuHsIa. and a year to whip r.nglund. Since then they have be gun to believe and to admit that It will take a longer time to end the war." "They are right In one regard." he continued slowly; "It will take longer than a year to end this war. But they are wrong In another regard: tney are wrong when they think they are going to win if. Indeed. In their hearts they honestly think that They are not going to win. ineir campaign tn the west Is a failure. It Is a failure already, and it will become more and more a fall ure as time passes. When an army of invasion ceases to Invade that army has lost Its principal function and has failed in its principal object When that army hides Itself In trench es, and fights at long range, it Is do ing nothing except waste Itself; and especially Is this true when that army navmg reached Its maximum of strength and efficiency and aggress lveness monthes before Is now losing n ail those essentials. Campaign Is a Failure. "To lie In that unenSIng chain of trenches which stretches across north ern France for hundreds of miles, like a long, gray snake that Is not waging a successful campaign. That Is not even waging war, as I conceive war to be. For an army of defense! Perhaps, yes; though, under certain circumstances. It might be a mistake for an army of defense so to dispose Itself. For an army of invasion? Well, events the future will Justify my belief. Of that I am as sure as I am sure that I am alive "Dropping bombs on cities, whether those cities be defended or undefend ed. Is not waging war. It is a costly spectacular by-play, which counts for nausht In the final result and really does not count in the detail of mo mentary advantage. Paris might be captured, and still the war would go on. England might be Invaded though I believe the ene my has not yet worked out complete plans for that undertaking and still the war would go on. Germany mlpht take and keep the other side of the channel, as she has already taken Antwerp, and still the war would go on. Belgium might be made a captive province for the time being, and still the war would go on. This war Is going on until Ger many has been defeated. There is no other possible contingency."

All I want Is that shoddy shall be labeled shod dy and wool garments shall be label ed wool garments so that the public shall know for what It Is spending Its money.
