HOW OUR TROOPS LOOK TO BRITISH

at the head of the troops, playing a
lively march. Cheers upon cheers re-
verberated from the crowds lining the
streets and Talbot square as the
American troops marched smartly
past.
The American band was followed by
two OF the men carrying a large Union
Jack and the Stars and Stripes side by
side, this significant emblem of unity
arousing great patriotic cheering.
They were greeted with the playing
OF the American national anthem, 'The
Star Spangled Banner" by the r. A.
M. G. Depot band, stationed immedl-
ately In front Of the town hall. The
troops, who were a finely built lot of
young men, were promptly lined up.
and the mayor and mayoress, accom-
panied by Sir John Russell, Bart, the
town clerk and Mrs. Harbottle and
Mrs. j.. Parkinson, mother of the
mayor, went to the edge Of the foot
path, and the mayor entered into con-
versation with Captain Tootle, the Of
ficer commanding the United States
contingent.
"The mayor proceeded to give n civic
welcome to the troops.
Captain TOotle called upon the men
to show what they felt in their
hearts, the gladness that came over
them on that occasion. He desired
them to let the good people assembled
know how happy they were to be pres
ent to stand shoulder to shoulder In
that great human cause. "Give them
three hearty American cheers, and re-
member your colleagues" was the con-
Guiding appeal.
''The men responded with three rous-
ing cheers, which far exceeded all pre-
viOus similar responses.
Look Pale but Fit.
"They are young men, from eighteen
years upward, and nearly all clean

peclally in headgear, for their hats
American service hats-are of the
sombrero type. with the slack crown.
Their khaki is a shade darker in color
than that Of our men, and their over

TEN GOOD REASONS FoR
BUILDING a 81 q

Prof. Skinner ur Purdue, tells
why every farmer should have one
1. The silo preserves the pala-
liability and succulence of .he
green corn plant for winter feed
ing.
2. 1t helps t" make use Of the
entire corn plant.
3. The silo increases the live
stock capacity Of the farm.
4. Silage is good summer
feed when pastures are short.
3. Because Of the small d.
mount Of ground space required
by the silo it is an economical
means of storing forage.
6. The silo prevents waste Of
corn stalks. leaves and husks
which contain about two-fifths of
the feeding value of The corn
plant.
:. The silo located near the
feed manger is an assurance Of
having feed near at hand in
stormy weather.
8. The silo assists in reduc-
i1g the cost Of grains in fatten-
ing cattle and sheep.
9. Silage greatly increases the
milk flow during the winter sea-
son and decreases the cost of
production.
10. There are no stalks to
bother in the manure when corn
is put into the silo.

PROVIDE a PLACE FOR the
PEOPLE ON SUNDAY

In their amendm. mt bill to the
legislature the Fargo Clergymen
must have lost sight of the real
object wnen one considers that
the necessary industries which
they touched upon, are only Sec
ondary when il comes to orovid-
ing place for young people to
spend their time n Sunday.
This is not boost for ..heat-
ers nor poolhalls. nor is il to de-
preciate the value of Sunday
Schools. Christian Endeavours.
Eow"rth Leagues. and such like
but the League members are COM
parativ"ly small compared to the
number of young boys and men
VINO are in no way affiliated 20
any of them and who are not
reached by church or league. One
needs only to watch the schools
and see th" great number of
young people of all ages from II
years up who when Sunday comes
and they leave their rooms at the
various dormatorics and roomirm
places to 90 and feel that their
needs are provided for. This is
Grim" against humanity.
When we look around and SEQ
great church buildings. great i'm
size and grand in furnishing:
with closed doors. and our young
people roaming the streets with
out place to go i'm and sit down,
then we feel that there is some-
thing radically wrong and people
are not doing their Christian
duty when this is allowed to go
on. People fight the pool halls at
home and in school without a thot
of something to take the place of
them. And when il comes To that
"a good clean pool hall, under
good management comes nearest
to the real needs of men and boys
as a stopping place of anything
one can provide. With scvero.
copies of the state laws governing
such place with restrictions On
cigaretts. profanity, obscene lang
uage and such, put up where they
can be seen and read by all who
frequent such places. then we
have a place where young men
and boys can go and listen to the
records on the talking machine,
buy ice cream, candy. fruit and
gum, and soft drinks. which is
vastly better than where they
group themselves together and
surround card table in an empty
room, with from one to several
bottles of "s2irits" taken from
Dads cellar or purchased from
the man with the innocent looking
suit case labeled laundry"
Now this is not immaginary and

wake up and use their persuas sive
