She is quite as charming as a guest in the home as on the stage. She spends her hours of relaxationknitting for the soldiers and during her visits to the various cantonments she personally bestows the socks and sweaters upon the boys. She says the boys always appear to be unduly grateful to her. Madame Matzenauer is thus doing more than her share to keep the boys in good spirits. She says con- cert singers take great pleasure in donating their services to the boys in camp for they are always very appre- ciative. PITTSBURG DOCTOR CLAIMS TO HAVE REMEDY FOR INFLUENZA Pittsburg, Pa., Oct. 14.-A remedy for Spanish influenza, compounded of iodine and creosote, is claimed to have been discovered by Dr. George F. Baer of this city. Dr. Baer says that it also works as a preventive and that patients having a fever of 103 de- grees have entirely recovered from the disease after treatment. The public health service at Wash- ington refuses to commit itself on the subject but pointed out that such remedies need long experimental pe- riods. This is one of many "cures" which have been suggested to the gov- ernment, none of which has been con- sidered successful enough to be giv- en out to the public. Experiments are being carried on in public health laboratories in order to develop serum or antitoxins with results which are not yet available for the use of physi- cians. Y. W.

REFORMING PRESENT POLICIES TO REFORM PRESENT POLICIES (Continued from Page One) at sea, and not the ships alone, but the very boats in which their passen- gers and crews attempted to make their way to safety, and in their further enforced withdrawal from Flanders and France, the German armies are sursuing a course of wan- ton destruction, which has always been regarded as indirect violation of the rules and practices of civilized warfare. Cities and villages, if not destroped, are being stripped of all they contain, not always, but often, of their very inhabitants. The nations associated against -Germany cannot be expected to agree to a cessation of arms while acts of inhumanity, spoilation and desolation are being continued which are justly looked upon with horror and with burning hearts. "It is necessary, also, in order that there might be no possibility of mis- understanding that the president should very solemnly call the atten- tion to the government of Germany to the language - and plain intent of one of the terms of peace which the German government has now accept- ed. It is contained in the address of the president delivered at Mount Ver- non on the 4th of July last. "It is as follows: "'The destruction of every arbi- trary power anywhere that can sep- arately, frequently, and of its single choice disturb the peace of the world; or, if it cannot be presently destroy- ed, at least its reduction to virtual impotency.' "The power, which has hitherto controlled the German nation, is of the sort here described. It is within the choice of the German nation to alter it." The president's words just quoted naturally constitute a condition if peace is to come through the action of the German people themselves. The president feels bound to say that the whole process of peace will, in his judgment, depend upon the definite- ness and the satisfactory character of the guarantees which must be- given in this momental measure. It is just as essential that the govern- ments associated against Germany should know beyond a doubt with whom they are dealing. The presi- dent will make a separate reply to the royal and imperial government of Austria-Hungary.

C. has been greatly delayed by the failure of local draft boards to send prompt releases to the Ann Ar- bor board, according to Admiral Ber- ry, in charge of the naval unit.

Toronto Explosion Kills 100 Toronto, Canada, Oct. 14.-Nearly 100 lives are reported to have been lost tonight in an explosion at an ex- plosion plant at Trenton. The explo- sion is said to have originated in the chemical plant, was followed by sev- eral others in other parts of the building. Large stores of TNT were uninjured by the flames. R. Rogers, ex-'20, Killed in Action Randolph Rogers, ex '20, of Grand Rapids, was killed in action in France on July 15.

After a good winter's rest and a coat of paint, he has again been put inte use in front of the Arcade. His pur- pose is to prevent accidents by mak- ing motorists turn a square corner and run on the right side of the street. A great many people pay no atten- tion to him and "cut the corner." There is a city ordinance against this practice with a fine attached, the min- imum fine being $5 and costs, and the maximum, $15. The charge in such cases is "reckless driving" at least, and may be more, depending on the seriousness of the offense. Red Cross Helps Families of Soldiers The home service section of the Ann Arbor Red Cross reports that for the month of September 57 families were helped. The total financial assistance amounted to $223.65. FISH PRICES TO BE REDUCED ONE-HALF BY STATE MARKETS Every city in Michigan during the year 1919 will have a state fish mar- ket with price cut about 50 per cent, according to State Game Commission- er Baird. At least one dealer in each city will be able to supply members of the community with, trout at 15 cents a pound and other fish at rela- tive prices. After Nov. 20, whitefish will be offered -at 18 cents a pound. State markets are already in opera- tion in the larger cities. A curious fact about the Michigan fish industry is that the fish which come from her waters, are shipped out and then back into the state to the retail markets. The result is that the purchaser pays for this extra ex- pense. Commissioner Baird expects to put a stop to this in 1919 by legisla- tive action.
