EVOLUTIONARY ARMY

The war department is evidently
determined that the expeditionary
force under Gen. Pershing shall be
ready at the earliest possible moment
for service in France and is calling
for "big push in this department.
The regular army is 100000 men
short of the authorized war strength
and the National Guards 10000. The
recruiting officers are bending every
energy to secure the men to bring
both to the maximum strength before
the draft law goes into effect. There
are, Of course, many details to be
worked out, but the work Of organic
ing and getting the expeditionary
force ready will be an accomplished
fact as soon as the war department
can make it so.

To guard our honor and to shield and

It's stars unsullied as the stars OF
night,
It's stripes unblemished; only this we
crave
Let the flag wave!

The Commercial Appeal advises
goat raising as a most profitable in
dustry under present conditions. 1t
cites particular instances of people
who have profited greatly by engag-
ing in the industry and says:
Why not raise goats? There is
money in the business. In the past
few years, according to the figures
furnished by the government, half a
billion goat skins, valued at half a
dollar each, have been imported into
this country.
Why should we go abroad for our
necessities when we can procure them
at home? We complain of the high
cost of living and we are not meeting
the issue the right way. We insist
on paying the blue sky price for
spring lamb when, in seven cases out
of ten, we are buying kids.
But it is the hide of the goat that
possesses the great value, and the
price of leather is climbing out of the
reach Of the poor man.
There is another funny thing about
this goat question. He takes care Of
himself. He is practically immune
from disease. He will eat anything,
from a shirt to tin can. He requires
no especial care. He is a prolific
breeder and the hide of a goat today
can be easily sold for rs cents, while
his meat can be equally easily dis
posed of. They need no
fence or special food. The old country
has found the great value Of goats.
II is time we exercised little prac-
teal Judgment at home.

The offer of Col. Roosevelt to or
ganize and lead volunteer force in
France has been rejected by the pow
ers that be at Washington. The final
decision on the question went to Pres
ident Wilson. The professional sol
diers were generally arrayed against
it. The opinion of these professionals
seems to have influenced President.

The second car of 400 bushels Of
mixed peas, ordered by the banks of
this city for the benefit of the farm
ers Of this community, arrived here
Friday, were opened at 5 o'clock that
afternoon and by noon of the follow
ing day were all gone. The banks
succeeded, after much difficulty, in
getting these peas from Atlanta, pay
ing $3.45 per bushel for them, and
they were sold to the farmers at cost
Peas are hard to secure at any price
and it is doubtful if any more can be
purchased anywhere below prohib,
tive price. The banks have done a
good work for the farmers Of this
community and are entitled to the
thanks of the public generally.

Atlanta, Ga, had disastrous fire
Monday. The damage done was SO
great that the dispatches stated that
it was difficult to get an estimate Of
it. The figures were put at from two
to three million, but the dispatches
said these were purely speculative
figures.

INTERESTING MEETING
AT FRIENDS HOUSE
Germantown Residents Well
Represented When Mr..
Whitehair Spoke

An interesting meeting was held on
Monday night at the Friends Meeting
House on Coulter street in Germantown,
when Mr.. G, W. WhitChair chief organizer
of the movement under Dr. John r. Mott to
establish Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton recreation buildings in the war coun-
tries, was the speaker.
Mr.. Bayard Henry, for thirty-thrcc years
president Of the Germantown Young Mems
Christian Association, made a short address,
In which he spoke of the crying need for
places where wholesome, healthy clean di-
version and entertainments can he found
for "Our boys" as he called them Mr..
Henrys voice broke and II was with great
difficulty that he continued to speak. But
he apOlOgized, saying that he had only just
returned from Princeton University and
that out Of 1900 men there are only SOC
left TIe said "thc university is virtually
broken up"
Mr.. Livingston Jones. the new president
of the Germantown branch Of the Young
Mems Christian Association, also made a
stirring plea for funds with which 70 carry
on this good work, and then Mr.. Whtehair,
his voice vibrant with deep emotion, told
his story, and it brought tears 10 the eyes
OF big strong men in the audience.
He said among other things: 80 great IS
the desire for something TO break the mo-
notony during convalcscent days that one
man said he would be willing to sell half
his already mcagcr share Of bread in or
der to have some one buy phonograph rec
ords with it, Think Of It, when for twenty
five cents we here in America, safe, pro-
tected. happy, unhurt, can hear that SUI
perb symphony orchestra of ours, and how
little we appreciate that or any other such
privilege"
one striking point he emphasized was
the fact that while millions of men are
struggling In this great world war the un-
derworld is mobilizinE and that their moral
welfare as well as the physical welfare is
tremendously at stake. You will not heed
this call tonight" he said, because 1t has
not touched your own lives, but this time
next year you will take down picture from
your mantel, and when the face Of your
own boy looks up at you then, and then
only, will you realize the great necessity
for Christian work among the men at war
The audience was represented by doctors,
bankers, women of fashion and young men
of wealth and leisure beside many Of the
clergymen of the community.
Among those noticed were Mrs. Bayard
Henry and her son, Mr.. ana Mrs. William
t. Mclean, DR. Samuel Rhodes, the Rev.
John Harvey Lee. Mr. Frederic Straw

THE GRIZZLY KING
By JAMES OLIVER CURWooD

ing in him. He had met the King Of the
Mountains; he had stood face to face
with death, and in the last moment the four
footed thing he had hunted and MANNED
had been merciful He believed that Bruce
would not understand; that Bruce could
not understand; but unto himself the day
and the hour had brought its meaning in a
way that he would not forget so long
as he lived, and he knew that hereafter
ana Tor all time he would not again hunt
the life Of Thor. or the lives of any Of his
kind
Langdon reached the camp and prepared
himself some dinner, and he ate this,
| with Muskwa for company, he made new
plans for the days and weeks that were
TO follow, lie would send Bruce back to
otertake Metoosn the next day and they
would no longer hunt the big grizzly. They
would 20 on to the Skcena and possibly
even up 10 the edge Of the Yukon, and
then swing eastward into the caribou Coun-
try some time early In September, hitting
back toward civilization on the prairie side
OF the Rockies. He would take Muskwa
with them. Back In the land of men and
cities they would be great friends II did
not occur to him just then what this would
mean for Muskwa
II was two o'clock, and he was still
dreaming of new and unknown trails in
the North when sound came to rouse and
disturb him. For a few minutes he paid
no attention to II. for II seemed to be only
a part Of the drOning murmur of the valley.
But slowly and steadily II rose above this,
and at last he got up from where he was
lying with his back to a tree and walked
out from the timber, where he could hear
plainly.
Muskwa followed him and when Lang
don stopped the tan-faced cub also stopped.
His little ears shot out inquisitively. He
turned his head to the north. From that
direction the sound was coming.
In mn
nized 1t, and yet even then he told himself
that his ears must be playing him false.
1t could not be the barking of dogs BY
this time Bruce and Metoosin were far to
the south with the pack; at least Metoosin
should be and Bruce was on his return to
the camp! Quickly the sound grew more
distinct and at last he knew that he could
not he mistaken. The dogs were coming up
the valley. Something had turned Bruce
and Metoosin northward instead of into the
south, And the pack was giving tongue
that fierce, heated baying which told him
they were again on the fresh spoor of game.
a sudden thrill shot through him. There
could be but one living thing in the length
and breadth of the valley that Bruce would
set the dogs after and that was the big
grizzly!
For n few moments longer Langdon stood
and listened Then he hurried back TO
camp, tied Muskwa TO his tree. armed him
self with another rifle and resaddled his
horse. Five minutes later he was riding
swiftly in the direction Of the range where
a short time before Thor had given him his
