"Weygand, you are not only a great general, not only a great commander of an army or groups of armies, but you are a great leader, a born lead~ er," Foch had told his former chief of staff when he received him in his sickroom, a few days before his death. .Weygand is a thin, alert little man, looking fully a score of years young- er than the 62 he boasts of. Once and once only, as far as Wey- gand's fatimates know, did the Gen- eral refer to his share in the drafting of the plans which brought about the final 'defeat of the Central Empires. It was duting the attack of Soviet Russia upon Poland. The Red ar- mies had swamped Poland, crossed the Vistula and were even overflow- ing into the suburbs of Warsaw. The situation appeared desperate for Po- land, The Polish Government ap- pealed to France for assistance. Their request was referred to Foch. He sent them Weygand. A Supreme Council of war at which all the Polish Generals with Marshal Pilsudski at their head attended was called immediately upon the arrival of Weygand in Warsaw. A hasty investigation of the cam- paign had convinced Weygand that errors had been committed, by the Polish staff, that resistance had been feeble at some points, entirely lacking elsewhere. Weygand seizing a huge red pencil began a slashing upon the staff maps, marking spots where batteries should be placed for the defense of Warsaw, here a regiment of infantry and ma- chine guns should be posted, there cavalry and tanks should create a diversion, A complete plan was drawn up in a few wminutes, t was met with some opopsition from the Poles.

There is only one man in the world from whom I should ac- Lop this sort of talk. He is Marshal och." : Weygand hesitated a moment, then on "Marshal Foch always invited the advice and suggestion of myself and other members of his staff, That's why he is not only a great captain but a great man. "Continue," said Pilsudski, not a muscle in his face moving. INDIFFERENT PARENTS BLAMED FOR VAGARIES OF MODERN YOUTH Chicago, Ill, May 7.--Indulgent and indifferent parents, blamed for the vagaries of modern youth, have been warned that fines and jail are the lot of those who let loose the bridles of their children. A coroner's jury investigating the death of a high school boy in a mc tor accident after a drinking party heard that 56 parents have been ar- rested in routine investigations and 23 have paid fines aggregating $378 within two weeks for indulging their truant school children.

This was excellent construction at the time it was built, but how differ- ent from to-day--One layer of TEN/ TEST would to-day take the place of all that extra air space and sawdust filling and the building would be stronger structurally as well as less costly. The above is only one example of the advance in building practice of late. especially has the advance been marked in the field of insulation.
