BOOST RECRUITS
q. S. Troops in France Incen-
tive to American Youths.
Marines Contend They're First
To Land ON Other Side.

ArrAtlantic Port, June 2S.-Wheth-
er official announcement of the land
ing of American troops in France will
show that the marines under Colonel
Doyen were actually the first men to
set foot on French soil, was a subject
of lively speculation at marine head
quar- erS and recruiting stations here
today.
The marines still at home believe it
will be found that Doyen's 1900 men
representing Uncle Sans first to
fight forces held to their tradition
and were first ashore.
The landing of the American troops
will be expected to give recruiting
decided boost. Bands were blaring,
flags flying and recruiting sergeants
were going strong here today.
Celebrate Landing
In contrast 60 the quiet slipping
away of the men now near the firing
line, the efforts to bring more men
into the service were redoubled today
with all the enthusiasm and noise pos
sible. Few knew when the transports
and their conveys slipped from this
port under cover of night and started
en- their voyage for the front. For
DAYS men had been pouring in by the
railways. They lounged around rail-
way yards waiting to be placed aboard
their transports which were piled
high with supplies and equipment.
Naval officers and men went about
their work quietly. Seeing Pershing's
troops safely across the Atlantic was
looked upon as one of the most serl-
ous missions the American navy had
ever undertaken. But the navy was
ready.
There was no "send Off for the
oops and jackies. Nor will there be
for others to follow them. War has
Ichsrped since the days of the Skin
m:sh with Spain, when troops march
ed away with drums beating and flags
flvire to herald their departure. Late
one day transports and conveys could
be seen. The next morning they Were

1era1ture of the first Americans IL

NOTED H0RS[MAN

WALTER MOORE, OF HORSE RE-
VIEW, MARVELS AT BEAUTY
OF THE COUNTRY.
NO WONDER IT has POETS
Asserts That Directs Star, At To'!ey
Farm, Is One Of the Greatest lndi-
vduals That he Has Ever Seen
Visits Geers' Old Home.

Although Walter Moore, Of the
Horse Review, has been travelling In
the interest of horse journals for over
twenty-five years, covering almost the
entire United States, this Is his first
visit to the "Dimple.'
For some years this vicinity was
represented by Trotwood; and after
Trotwood's retirement from the horse
field our old friend "Marque" paid us
an annual visit.
Mr.. Moore was perfectly carried
away with the people, The horses, and
the country, and says with such sur
roundings no wonder Trotwood was
imbued with the poetic, and Mr.. Geers
developed the greatest character be-
fore the public. He marveled at the
natural resources of our county, and
with the advantages we have over any
he has ever visited, he could not un-
derstand why Kentucky should have
colorized the horse industry, when we
have everything they have and so
much more besides,-especially the
pure limestone springs and running
water In every direction.
Being familiar with the history Of
the Halls, Mr.. Moore found 1t mo-
ment of deem interest and information
20 come in actual touch with their
native community. as we'll as renew
his acquaintance with some Of the re-
nowned members of that world-famous
family. He was delighted to shake
hands with Directs Star 2:09A. John

they were longlost friends. He says

county committee Of public safety,
presided over the meeting. The
speakers were Prof. Donnell M. Gal

Mr.. Galloway made an earnest and
effective plea for larger field crops
that can be used for the support Of
both man and beast He was especial
ly anxious that the farmers would
grow all that they could at home in
order to have as much surplus of
wheat and corn as possible to help
feed the soldiers of America and her
allies in the great war for freedom.
He appealed to the patriotism of the
people. He told them that the nation
was engaged in a great contest to
make the world safe for democracy"
and it was their duty, the duty of
every citizen, to do his bit in this holy
cause.
Mr.. Galloway was followed by Mrs.
Bryan, who was properly introduced
as one Of the "livest wires" in the
county. And that she proved herself
to be. Her address was logical and
convincing. She made an especial
appeal to the patriotism of the
mothers. Sc told them plainly that it
was their duty to give their sons to
fight the battles of their country. She
hen appealed to the young women to
work for the Red Cross, for comforts
for the soldiers and in the homes.
She asked that the women practice
reasonable and proper economy 50

but the spirit of the people, their
splendid manifestation of appreciation
OF what the experiment station would
mean to the development and promo

state and Middle Tennessee. 1T il

London, April Wilhelm Hohen-
zOlleTn may fall where BOnaparte fell
at Waterloo. And on the same
date, 102 years later.
Strategists figure that at their
present rate of progress the French,
British and Belgians will have forced
the Germans to Waterloo by June IS,
anniversary Of the famous battle.
The "Hindenburg line already is
considered broken by the British adj
vance at Lens and the Franco-British
assault on st. Quentin.
The Belgians have pushed forward
at Dixmude and the French have
driven a great dent into the German
front between Scissors and Rheims.
From Lens to Waterloo is 20 miles.
At the rate Of the past few weeks
the Germans in their retirement
would just about reach that position
by mid-June.

Should they stand at Waterloo and
be defeated they would have to evac-
uate all the Belgian coast. Brussels
and Antwerp also would be unten-
able.
That is why a German defeat at
Waterloo would end the kaiser's
dream of reaching the English
channel, just as the defeat of Bona
paTte by the British and Germans in
1915 ended the great Frenchman's
dream of world empire.
