The speaker left at 10 o'clock on the return trip, ex pecting to make the trip that night, Dr. Boyer gave a briet recital oi the conditions on the French front j as observed by him. He told of the I brave ambulance drivers, the super men who pilot the war planes and tne heroic little band that enlisted in the armies of Britain and France. He declared that these men knew from tihe start that France and Britain were fighting the battles of the Un ited States and they despaired of the entrance of their country. When tho Lusitania was sunk in May two years ago, the Americans in France beli,ev,ed that ithe Unitjed States would realize . what it was up against, but the men in the trenches, in the airplanes and ambu lances were disappointed. The speaker told of the perils of ambulance drivers and cited the case of Richard Hall, fresh from college, who laid down his life Christmas eve He also referred to Allen See gars, the poet, who counted it a priv ilege to expose his young body for the sake of humanity. Dr. Boyer referred to the enemies of the world as Huns and if there were any in the audience who thought the char acterization was a little strong, they remembered that Dr. Boyer was a witness to their conduct and that he could compare their mode of war- mum of time will be required or the Topeka, Kans..

Private advices from Germany tell of growing restlessness among the people with the political results of the ruthless submarine campaign and the absence of actual results in has tening the end of the war. iDurinsr thej(r long campaign for unrestricted submarine warfare, th advocates made the plea that the wi would be brought to a close promptly. "Two or three months," was the phrase used everywhere in regard to the time it would take to bring Eng land to her knees ready for peace. Even though the government bound itself to no particular time to bring results, the public was told that the submarine would bring a decision in two or three months. Grumblings are now heard that although four months have passed, England shows no signs of weaken ing, but it is prosecuting the wa. with more bitterness than eve: iStatements that France has been "bled white" and will be forced to retire from the war have been madt so often that they no longer attract the slightest credence. The entrance of the United States and the rupture of relations between Germany md the bulk of the neutral nations out side of Europe also are deplored. Questions have been recently ask ed correspondents in Germany by persons not officials of what would be the effect in the United States if the submarine warfare would be aban doned. The government shows no signs of weakening and is now en gaged in a big campaign to convince the German people that the subma rines are succeeding. German naval writers have been preparing their readers for a possi ble falling off in the monthly figur es furnished by submarines. Many have said that if it happens it will be due to some extent to the result of British methods. No mention of any increase of losses in subma rines is made. ! !
