g Canned Willie Is
Staple For Soldiers

In an Encyclopedia of Militia.
ry Terms" just published by
Canadian troops serving in
France, an old staple army arti-
Gle, corned beef, is given the
name of bully.
Members of the United States
Marine Corps, who publish no
encyclopedia, call the same thing
Canned Willie" and they point
out that troops all over the world
have different and expressive
terms describing the timed
corned beef product.
Our Mari mes give no reason
for their canned Willie" ver-
sion of the corned beef affair,
other than that they try to be
original in all things, and that,
in going about the world in per-
Torrance of duty, they learn
what the other fellow is doing in
a nicknaming way and are thus
able to keep right up to the min
ute.

Depositors' Money
Was Safe; Vault OF
Hazel Bank Closed

One morning recently officials
of the Dees Bank of Hazel, KY,
found that they could not open
the bank vault. The combina-
ton would not work according to
directions and the vault remained
locked all day. The officials
wired the company from whom
the vault was purchased and an
expert was sent at once to open
it, which he did in a few min
utes, after arriving at Hazel.
An error in the printed instruc-
tions on how to work the COM
bination is said to have caused
the trouble.

ONE NEWSPAPER TOLD
TRUTH---WH0LE TRUTH
Editor Of Indiana Paper Be-
came Tired OfBeing Called
Liar So Often

VI course newspapers uo EOt
always tell "the truth, the whole
truth and nothing but the truth, !"
but for that matter, we have
never had the address of anyone,
even newspaper critics, gifted
with this accomplishment.
Those of our acquaintance who
have been the quickest to refer
to newspaper lies," are them
selves among the most reckless
persons with the truth we have
ever known.
The Publishers Auxiliary re-
lates the effort of two newspaper
men who resolved to stick to the
plain unvanished facts:
1t is not pleasant and profita-
BILE always to tell the truth in
the columns of a newspaper.
Men who have tried this hereto
fore have always come to grief.
Only a few days ago the editor
of a paper in Indiana grew tired
of being called a liar, and an
nounced that he would tell the
truth in the future; and the next
issue of the paper contained the
following items:
John BONN, the LATEST mer-
chant in town. made a trip to
Belleville yesterday.
John Coyle, our grocer man,
is doing a poor business. His
store is dirty and dusty. How
can he do much?
REV. Styx preached last Sun
day night on Charity The
sermon was punk.
Dave Sonkey died at his
home in this place. The doctor
gave it out as heart failure.
Whiskey killed him.
Married Sylvan Rhodes
and James Conlin, last Saturday,
at the Baptist parsonage. The
bride is a very ordinary town
girl, who doesn't know any
more about cooking than jack
rabbit, and never helped her
mother three days in her life.
She is not a beauty by any
means, and has gait like a
duck. The groom is an up-to-
date loafer. He has been living
off the old folks at home all his
life, and is not worth shucks. 1t
will be a hard life.
"The governor of our great
state, a very ordinary man, and
who was elected by accident,
was here yesterday. He has
very few friends here now. He
promised some of the voters of
this precinct a piece of the pie
in event of his election, but had
forgotten all about it when the
time to hand over the office
rolled around"
Which reminds US of an ILL
nois editor who became tired of
welding the whitewash in the
matter of obituaries. decided to
reform and tell the truth just
once. He commented as follows
upon the death of a citizen:
"Died-Aged fifty-six years,
six months and thirteen days.
Deceased was mild-natured pi-
rate with a mouth for whiskey.
He came here in the night with
another mans wife and joined
the church at first chance. He
owes us several dollars for the
paper, a large meat bill, and you
could hear him pray six blocks.
He died singing Jesus Paid 1t
All, and we think he was right;
he never paid anything himself.
He was buried in an abestos
casket, and his many friends
threw palm leaf fans in his grave,
as he may need them. His
tombstone will be a favorite rest
ing place for the boot owls. >

VILLA, THE TIGER,
As He REALLY IS
Mechanical Limitations Pre-
vent Adequate Picture of
Famous Bandit.
BY Edmond T.. Behr.

(Note-Mr. Behr accompanied VIVA
on many of his campaigns before
his break with Carranza-)
FIELD HEADQUARTERS. PUNI-
TIVE EXPEDITION, Mexico, Dec.
$. (by motor train to Colum bus,
y M)-Although hundreds of
photographs of him have been print
ed in American newspapers, hardly
one shows Francisco Villa as ne
really is in the flesh.
Mechanical limitations prevent, for
instance. an adequite picture of the
notorious bandits eyes-those yell
lowist. brown eyes before which
hundreds Of Mexicans have qualified.
His eye-balls prOtrude from their
sockets more than the average mans.
The whites are bloodshot. When
ne is angry, the blood PUSHES to
his eyes until they appear almost
red. When he is in a crowd, Villas
gaze shifts light lightning to every
part of the compass, possibly on
guard against some wOuld-be assas-
sin: but when he is alone with a
man, Villas eyes bore through him
like a knife.
villa is five feet, 10 inches in
height. He is heavy-Hmbed and
thlck-ohested. His arms are un-
usually long. They are out of pro-
portion TO the rest of his body and
reach nearly 10 his knees. His
hands. oddly enough. are as soft as
"A woman's. When he shakes hands
his grasp is fabby. He weighs
