Answers

Dear Miss Grey: We are
two girls and would like for
you to tell US II there Is any
harm in writing to the lone
some Sammies in France. II
there is, please tell US to. be-
cause we would like to cores
pond with some of them, but
our mothers strictly forbid us
doing so.
TWO YOUNG READERS.
IL your mothers forbid the cor
respondence, that settles r. Far
be 1t from Cynthia Grey to dis
pute that sort Of advice given by
q mother to her daughters. At
tho you do not state your ages,
doubtless your mother considers
you too young To carp on such a
correspondence, and II you are
under 10 years Of age, she is very
wise in her decision.
Don't worry too much abOnt
the lonesome Sammy In France.
Most Of our boys have fond rela-
tives or friends who will cheer
him. And those who haven't will
be remembered by various wO-
mems and girls clubs. =
Dear Miss Grey: Which do
you think it takes more talent
to portray-comedy or tragedy,
and why? L. w.
1t would seem that a clever
humorous artist would be pos
sessed of more talent than one
who portrays tragedy because
there is more OF. tragedy than
comedy I'm life. However, that il
only my own Personal opinion,
and not to be taken automatically.
Dear Miss Grey: There has
been a great deal of agitation
about sending letters and pres
ents to The "Sammies from all
the girls they leave behind
them, for handy kits, Christ
mas bags, etc., and every once
in while we are reminded that

manders of soldiers who never

and good, but
Now about the nurses at the
front? Speaking of the horrors
the men have to face, how
about the girls who patch them
up, waiting on from Is to so
every day, and spending time
in the operating room when
they ought to be asleep? So
far, l haven't heard of any
propositions to take their minds
off their troubles.
Why couldn't we get lists
of these girls names and give
some of the home men the
privilege of sending them candy
land books and letters and
things? The correspondence
between the home girls and the
"Sammies" they don't know is
generally held to be perfectly
harmless, so what is the objec-
tion to this? I should think a
letter from some of us at home
might help to brighten a dull

Here's Your Chance

Maybe you weren't directly interested in those
21-31 lines of the selective service age limits.
Maybe the presidents proclamation to the effect
that all enemy aliens were to be pyt under strict
surveillance sounded like the echo of a voice afar
off.
Turn over on the other side and quit snoring!
The constitution empowers the president to draft
for the 'sunorganzed militia" all able-boded
men between the ages of Is and 45 years, and
he's going to do it, if the states don't individu-
ally, properly watch those aliens. Come to! You

The Sun of Kaledines

It seems apropos to get few golden simoleons
on Gen. Kalendines. Gen. Kalendines has not
thus far got the prominence that results from
judicious advertising, but the cablegrams assure
us that he is Cossack, has got hold of the Rus
sian bread and coal supplies, and proposes to
starve and freeze the bolsheviki out of business.
Two things you can see, without personal in
PRODUCTION to Gen. Kalendines First, when
Cossack gets hold of thing, it's his. Secondly,
any man holding the bread and coal supplies can
finally put bosheviki out of business, in PetrO-
grad, Tacoma or any other territory.
We, cling to our previously expressed opinion
that, finally, the form, shape and complexion of
Russian government will largely depend upon
the condition of the Russian stomach

WETTING is BAD FOR WATCH
At Times II Is Less Expensive to Put
in New Movement Than to
Clean the Works.

When person falls overheard or
gets ducking in any other way he
ut once has trouble with his watch. IN
less, of course, it happens that he be
not wearing it. If he is wise he will
send it at once to matchmaker. What
the latter can do to it depends upon
the extent of the wetting and the
length of time that has elapsed since
the immersion.
The jewelers. Circular says the re-
pairer will take the watch entirely
apart If there be water still noticeable
he will place all the parts In alcohol
and then clean them. If they be dry
he will put all ordinary steel parts in
benzine and all plates, bridges and
brass parts in a solution Of alkali and
soap.
A repairer receiving q watch several
days after its wetting will immense it
IT in coal Oil. Then he will decide
whether 1t will be less expensive to
clean the works or to replace them
with new movement.

Ancient Keys.

1t was formerly thought that keys
were a strictly modern invention, but
among the ruins of Thebes have been
found keys with straight shanks five
inches long and a bar at right angles
with three teeth, thus proving that the
Egyptians were familiar with the prin-
ciples of lock making. AS no locks but
only keys have been found among the
Egyptian ruins 1t is assumed that the
locks were Of wood, only the keys be-
ing metal. The earliest mention Of a
key to be taken from the lock occurs
in Judges 3 % :25. This was used to
fasten the door Of the summer parlor
of EglOn, king Of Moab. "Ehud went
forth through the porch, and shut the
doors of the parlor upon him and
locked them. His servants took key
and opened them" The date referred
to here is about 1886 B. c.

Hammock Product Of Indian

lea. The earliest reference to the
hammock, as far as we know, is found
in Columbus narrative of his first voy-
age, where. after his landing at San
Salvador, he speaks Of the natives
thus: "A great many Indians In
canoes came to the ship today for the
purpose of bartering their cotton and
hamacas or nets in which they slept"
These Indians, the first discovered by
Columbus, were Arawaks, and the
word hammock" comes direct from
the language of that tribe.
