A Red Cross Appeal
To the Fathers and Mothers of Washington
By Kenneth c. Beaton OK. c. b.

In a little while your boy may be Somewhere in
France" You won't know where. You'll only know
that somewhere on the firing line, side by side with
your neighbors boy, he will be fighting on toward
the goal that must be reached before the war is
done. And here at home you'll wait and pray that
he'll come back just as he went away, with should
ers back and head erect, and in his eyes the light
that comes into the eyes of those in whom there
is no fear that future days months or years may
point to them and say: He heard and answered
not"
And while he's gone, unless you're brave beyond
the strength Of human kind, you'll dream of him.
and wake and in those hours of the day-the
hardast-just as the morning breaks, you'll take
the hand that soothed his brow in babyhood and
hold it tight and wonder how it goes with him and
where he is when morning breaks on that same
day somewhere in France"
And then, if you have done your bit" back home,
while he is over there if you have sent across the
seas a Red Cross nurse and what she needs, surg
con to hold back the life that looks down where the
valley lies and the shadows lurk, there' come that
light into your eyes and you will know that one
can point to you and say: HE heard and answered
not"

LYNDEN MAN TELLS
OF CONDITIONS IN EAST
John p. Boerhave Describes Trip To
Business Centers of United States
For Lynden Firm

! Just what business conditions the
East is facing, is reported in a letter
received at The Tribune office this
week from John P. Boerhave, who is
concluding a business trip there in
the interests of the Lynden Depart
ment Store.
mo doubt some of the readers of
the Tribune will be interested to
learn something regarding eondit-
ions, etc, at first hand in the East,
therefore appreciate it if you will
publish these lines in your columns.
Leaving Lynden early in April,
my first visit was at Chicago. This
city had changed considerably since
the writer left it Il years ago.
great many new skyscrapers have
gone up in the meantime, and nearly
all the suburban trains arc elevated
now. 1t has grown considerably in
population, and now has two and
three-quarters million people.
There are a great many interest
ing things to see in Chicag Art
Institute, Fields museum, Municip-
al Pier, Northwestern Railway Stat
ion, Stoek-yards, Department Stores,
office buildings, etc.
while at Chicago, l was priyi-
legged to hear Col. Roosevelt make
his first war speech, and | also heard
General Joffre and Ex-Premier Wv
in, L. Il
iasm at these meetings.
From Chicago, l left for New
York, stopping off at Grand Rapids,
Detroit, Niagara Falls and Buffalo.
The Falls are wonderful.
New York is a great city-the
largest in the world, having a pop
ulation of seven million. The bus
mess transacted here is enormous
There are a great many places of
interest, for instance, the Subway,
the 5S story Woolworth building, the
Grand Central and Pennsylvania rail
way stations, Brooklyn and Manhat-
tan briggs, Central Park, Coney Is
land, etc.
BILLY Sunday is drawing great
crowds here, and it is expected that
when he is through, he will have
made 100, 900 converts in New York
City.
Times seem very good in the East
and Middle-West, with plenty of work
at good wages. However, living ex-
penses are very high.
1.-The writer has been very busy
in Chicago and New York, looking
over and buying different lines OF
merchandise for the Lynden Depart
ment Storo. Although merchandise
is scarce and high, was able to make
some very good purchases, and We
will have some good bargains to offer
to the people of Lynden and vicinity.
Il have also made arrangements
with a concern in New York. who
will send us daily reports on New
Styles and en- special bargains, thus
giving us a service that usually only
the large city department stores get.
We will at all times he in close touch
regarding latest styles and market
conditions.
Il expect to return via Philadelphia
Baltimore and Washington, stopping
off a few hours at each place.
Il hope to be back in Lynden the
latter part of this month. Although
l have enjoyed my trip immensely. /
shall be very glad to get back u M
family and the Lynden Department
Store"

CURIOUS FEARS OF SOLDIERS
Will Be Destroyed Although In
different as to Himself.


1t is extraordinary what curious
fears some soldiers have. One fighter
always breads that his charcoal fire
Will be DESTROYED by Il shell. He al
Ways places the burner in the most
protected part of the trench. but re-
mains quite Indifferent in regard to
Ills W personal safety.
Another extraordinary fear OF a sol
der at the front is that of having his
bootlaces united. Nothing else has
terrors for him. from bayonet fighting
to a%sphySiating gases. But he is quite
certain that if his bootlaces are loose
he will trip Owe them and break his
neck He always examines his laceS
to see if they are properly fastened.
Another soldier who has been through
the thick of the fighting is terribly
frightened of going through Il wood,
and would rather walk miles round 1t
than half n mile through 1t. He has
the fear that some day II tree will sud-
denly fail and crush him.
Many soldiers have a horror Of los
ing their identity disks, or Of being
unidentified If they are killed, and
buried in a nameless grave. One man
is known to carry little scraps Of paper
in every pocket, giving his name and
regiment. SO that his body may be rec
ognized If he is killed.

NEW FLAG ADDED TO
ENTENTE STANDARDS

Koritza, Albania Correspondence
Of the Associated Press).-A new flag.
the flag of the new Republic of the
S~kipetars" has made its appearance
among the standards of the entente AL

front. 1t is the old standard OF the
Scandenbergs, of red with a black two
headed eagle and the little army OF ESQ
men of the republic of the Spiketars.

only the city of Koritza with a popu-
lation of $4,000 and the surrounding
region, comprising altogether about
10000 inhabitants. 1t Is located in that
part of Albania in which the longing
for liberty Inc tranquility has been
most developed through repeated pill
Laying by neighboring Albanians and
continual oppression by foreigners.
The Albanians, accustomed to sum-
mary and primitive means of admins
tration and Justice are taking to re-
publican ideas and the parliamentary
regime, and considerable unsupported
oratorical talent has been discovered
In this and where powder only has
talked heretofore.
The idea of forming the Skipetar re.
public is due to Colonel Descoins, com.
manding the French forces stationed
here. When he assumed command of
the post he called all the notables of
the town together AID talked to them
in his vein:
"Skipetars, my friends, until Deem
Der 1912 you suffered under Turkish
regime; in May, 1913, it was the Greek
army that mistreated you; then until
the inconvenience Of Greek civil ad-
ministration; in July, 1914, it was the
noxious %buffoonery of Prince de Wied
that was imposed Dor you; in Decem-
Der, 1915, it was again the Greek mill
tary occupations; in October, 1916, it
was the Greek royalist civil admins
tration, and in November, 1916, the
the french military occupation with
Greek civil authorities. You ought to
have enough of all these experiments
n | ave a very simple suggestion tic
make to you. Why don't you govern
yourselves? You are Albanians. Be AL
banlans, then, and nothing else. Cease
all intrigues n occupy yourselves
with your own self government. French
troops are here to defend the terri
tory, that's all. Be honest men, III be
the gendarme."
This plain talk appealed to the
Skipetars, who at once formed a re-
public with a parliament of IA mem.
bers and a president whose tenure o.
office is a fortnight.

ANY CORN LIFTS OUT,
DOESN'T HURT A BIT!
No foolishness! Lift your corns.
and caIIuses off with fingers
It's like magic!

Sore corns, hard corns, soft corns or
any kind of a corn, can harmlessly be
lifted right out with the fingers if you
apply upon the corn a few drops of
frcezone, says a Cincinnati authority.
For little cost one can get q small
bottle of f%reezone ut any drug store,
which will positively rid ones feet of
every corn or callus without pain.
This simple drug dries the moment
1t is applied and does not even irri-
tate the surrounding skin while APP
plying it or afterwards.
This announcement will interest
many of our readers. If your druggist
hasn't any f%reezone tell him to surely
get a small bottle for you from his
wholesale drug house.-adv.

But Not at Home.

The man next door was repairing a
chewed-up inner tube belonging to his
auto tire equipment. George was

pumped and sweated and fumed and
fretted as he worked. He was glad
of n thing. He was not out on some
lonely, dusty, country road. At last he
was through.
