Foch's strategy won the first battle of the Marne, saving Pai and preventing the envelopment and destruction of the French army. He commanded at the first battle of Ypres that saved talais. He had under him British. French and Belgian trooDs. He led the An glo-French army that rushed into Italy to stop the Teuton rush across the Venetian plains. He was commander in chief of the French forces in the . battle of the Somme which swept the Germans over the grouond they won back m the March offensive. His achievements as supreme commander of the allied forces are too well known to call for review, suff'ce it to say that within a fortnight after his appointment the affairs of the allies began to 1m prove, and the war was brought to a close fully a year earlier than most experts supposed it could be victoriously finished. General Foch will live in history as one of the half-dozen greatest generals the world has produced. ' . SUBSCRIPTION BATES Daily, bv Carrier, per Tear $o.00 . Per Month..

The end of the war is in sight because the armistice has been signed. There is little doubt that all its terms will be complied with. But the end of the problems sur rounding the welfare of our soldiers at home and abroad is not so close at hand. The signing of the armistice should not mark the end of all our patriotic endeavors and sacrifices and our interest in the boyS whose valor and courage have made possible the coming of permanent world peace. Seven great welfare agencies are included in this campaign for funds. They are the Y. M. C. A., the Y. W. C. A., the National Catholic War Council, the War Camp Community Service, the Jewish Welfare Board, the Am- t ?i ... a j oi 4-: A . fiu ; In today's dispatches the former!

It !s a pretty safe bet, how- When the thirty day limit of the armistice shall have expired there is no doubt that the country will turn'rapid ly toward a permanent peace footing. The troops in the camps and thousands of government employees will be sent back to civil life as rapidly as possible, and various government boards now controlling the business of the country will find their occupation gone. While the troops now in Europe and As'a will no doubt remain there for some time and be returned home gradually they will con- stitute a standing army for the time being, more than anything else. The nation will no longer be in a state of war when the terms of the armistice are complied with, although it may requir.e 'months longer, to frame a per manent treaty of peaoe which will make over the map of the old world. is performing a distinctive and useful service. It should not be necessary today to describe the ac tivities of these various organizations. Their work has been reviewed again and again' in manj- publications, and every man or woman with friends and relatives in the service must have heard a good deal at first hand ot tne ceenrous and noble work of one or more of them. The fund asked for in this campaign is $170,000,000. The drive will cover the period froni Nov. 11 to Nov. 18. Jolyi R. Mott, who is director-general of the cam oaien. eives one big reason for cont'nuing the service ren dered by these groups of workers. "The period of demob ilization should not be allowed to become one or aemor alization." . . Until the boys are all home again and established in the lines of work they may choose, some such work as that done bv these organizations will . continue to be neces sary. Thinking, responsible people should be glad of the pr'vilege of backing up with their money the agencies per forming that work. THE OPEN GATE. The downfall of. Turkey which opens the way to the Black sea involves the internationalizing of Constantin ople should appeal especially to the imagination of the American people, since it was the occupation of all this region by the Turks some 500 years ago which led to the voyages of Columbus and the discovering of our country. The narro passage-way to the East over Web. Constantinople stands guard has always been a sort of touch stone of greed, because of the wealth lying just be yond and the comparative ease with which it can be de fended. When the Turk first gained possession of it he slam med the door in the face of the civilized world and kept it shut until compelled by force and lured by bargaining to open it. Germnay had long had her eye on the control of that part of the world. This war gave her the chance she wanted, and she joined with the Turks in attempting the same old game of monopoly. But Turkey and Ger many have learned that the earth was not made exclu sively for them. Even before the kaiser abdicated, while the debris ,of the shattered structure of world-domination he had reared was falling about his head, the mine-sweepers were clearing the Bosphorus and the Dardanelles. Fol lowing close behind them were the battleships of the al lied fleets bound for the Black sea, ever, that little Willie took good care to select a safe hid ing place as soon as things began to look squally for the Hohenzollerns. Chile has seized all the German ships interned in her ports, Spain, Holland, Denmark' Norway, Sweden and other outraged neutrals are plucking up courage to claim their rights. Everybody's taking a whack at Germany now. "Where the carcass is, there will the eagles be gath ered together." '";.:' ' Webster defines "armist'ee" as "a brief cessation of arms by convention." Sorry to contradict you, Noah, but this one old man Foch fixed up isn't anything like that at alL We dont wonder that the kaiser hesitated so long over abdicating. Think how any fellow would feel with a name like Bill Hohenzollern hitched to. him. Just to make assurance doubly sure General Foch made the terms a little tighter than the allied council had framed them. Foch knows the Prussian pretty well. RIPPLING RHYMES By Walt Mason THE HOUSEWORK PROBLEM. Each day I meet some doleful dame who draes along her weary frame, and says, "It beats the band! This do ing housework makes me tired; there are no damsels to be hired in all this war-struck land. I used to bask in gilded ease: but now I have to shell the peas, and dust the blooming chairs, and mop the ceilings and the floors, and manicure the walls and doors, and sweep the cellar stairs. And if by chance I get a maid I lie awake, I'm afraid that she will up and quit: but then u' s no use to repine, we have to smile and fall in line, and try to do our bit." We must admire the stately dames who pass up all the idle games that used to take their time, and toil around the kitchen stove, and season pumpkin with a clove- to make a pie sublime. They're digging up the household lore they used to know in days of yore, ere riches came their way; they're shedding. silks and diamond rings, in gingham Hhe Wizard of Ma's Into the doughnut kettle, or the fry ing pan, or into the mixingxbowl as shortening for fluffy cakes or flaky pie crust these are a few of the many uses you can make of the same contents of a can of Kream Krisp. For after using Kreain Krisp for frying, you only have to strain it to make it as good as newior an other frying or for shortening. Once over the fire Kream Krisp heats quickly. Now put into it some fish cro quettes almost instantly it forms on them a crisp, brown crust. This crust formation not only means economy in the use of Kream Krisp in that it does not soak up the fat, but it makes the croquettes more palat able whdlesome--and easily digested. Now in the same kettle you can fry doughnuts or potatoes. No matter how var ied the frying in which Kream Krisp is used, it does not absorb flavors or taint foods.

" Here are a few pertinent facts about General Fer dinand Foch, mashal of France and commander in chief of the allied armies: Ferdinand Foch was 67 years old Oc tober 2. He was born in Tarbes, a little town in Southern France, near the Spanish border. He has been a soldier all his life. He fought the Germans when a boy in the war of 1870. He served as a subaltern as did Jof f re. Af ter the war he began to win notice. At 26 he was an ar tillery captain. Later he became professor of tactics 'n the "French West Point" the Ecole de Guerre. After five years' teaching he returned to regimental work. He had reached the rank of brigadier general when Clemenceau made him director of the Ecole de Guerre. From this think of goiong back to idle, trifling ways; they'll want to sew and bake and boil, and keep in touch with useful toil the balance of their days. Iz THE WIFE By JANE PHELPS MRS.
