waid :--

"We have no desire to turn everything upside down; our object is not to destroy sinal existences, but to open up the great reservoirs of labour."

The head of the War Bureau, General Gröner, said that "patriotic auxiliary service would certainly be taken to include the schools, the Press" not only the daily Press, but also the religious Press and the technical Press "and soliciturs, Banks and insurance com panies would also be regarded as per forming "auxiliary service.! He said that it was intended to get teachers and students out of the technical high schools into the works, and that the same thing applied to the universities, since the mill- tary authorities could make good use of the students.

What we have done is not little, but it is no longer enough. For the past two and a half years we have been living in conditions which all of us would for merly have considered incredible. To-day thess conditions are our daily bread. 1 should like to bring before your eyes the really extraordinary obaracteristics of this time as to which the sense of per- spective is destroyed by daily habit.

AN APPEAL TO THE WORLD. The Foreign Office issuer the following &tatement :-

The following declaration, issued by his Majesty's Government, has been, approved by and is issued with the concurrence of the French, Russian, and Italian Govern- nonts, who are issuing declarations to the same effect:-

The Belgian Government have solemnly protested to the civilized world against the slave raids conducted by the German authorities in Belgium.

The Allies of Belgium associate them selves with that protest, and. further desiring to place on record their sense of the debt which they owe to her, unite in making the following declaration:-

The Allies call this to mind, not as taking credit to themselves but in order to show what has been their consistent policy.

"HYPNOTISED BY THE MAP.”

BY HAMILTON FYFE, SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT. OF THE DAILY MAIL" IN ROUMANIĄ. ] If we ever learn anything, the erents of the autumn in this country, Rou- manin, will serve as a very useful lesson to us. By "us" I mean the Allies, especially Britain, France, and Russia.

Considering their unpreparedness for War, considering the effort made by the Germans to win bere a sensational sur- cess, the last they over can win, allowing for all these factors, the Roumanians have put up a remarkably plucky fight. If they still hold their ground another wock or so they will have shown an almost miraculously stabbona bravery in the face of odds.
