The War Man.

It has been said that If the war
were settled by a peace based on to-
days war map the Germans would
gain immensely. A French authority
takes exception to this view. He points
out that If Germany were granted the
territory she has seized, she would
hold Belgium, Serbia. Poland, the sew
en- northern departments of France
and probably Montenegro-a total
area Of 300, 400 square kilometers. The
allies on the other hand have taken
from Germany TOgoland, Kamerun,
German Southwest Africa, German
East Africa, the Bismarck Archipel-
ago, the Caroline islands, the German
islands of the Samoan group, Kiao
Chao, and territory in Galicia, Bu-
kowina and Armenia, a total area Of
3,228,341 square kilometers, or ten
times as much territory as Germany's
seizures amount to. While the French
man is not in favor of any settlement
on the war map basis, he holds that
Germany could not afford such a set
Element. because she cannot exist
without colonies.

Knew Something About Rifles.


At Fort Myer one of the companies
OF Officers Reserve corps students was
receiving instruction In some phase Of
the army rifle. One of the young men
impressed the instructor as being
bored to death with the talk, and, fur
thermore, he actually left the circle be-
fore the instructor had finished talk
ing.
"You did not seem to care for my
lecture" said the officer to the stu
dent little later.
"Oh, yes sir; am very much inter-
ested in the rifle. I have shot a great
many Of them"
The army man was a bit sore.
"How many times have you fired a
rifle In the past year?" he asked.
II couldn't say, but probably about
5000 times"
The army officer didn't believe him,
and plainly intimated it. A civilian
who had fired rifle 5000 times In a
year was unheard of, an impossibility.
"Where have you fred rifle any
such number Of times?" he asked,
sharply.
"Why, It's this way" answered the
youth; my father is Lewis, the manu-
facturer of the Lewis machine gun,
and am in charge Of his tests. am
a specialist in army rifles"
"Oh," said the army officer-and he
walked away.-Washington Star.

WHAT WOULD you DO THEM
Question Put to WouId-Be Drivers Of
Army Motor Trucks Brings Some
Remarkable Answers.

In New York various auto men have
given their time to the government and
have the task of examining men for
places as truck drivers in the army.
The answers to the questions would
keep an audience Of cigar store Indians
convulsed with mirth, 1t Is declared.
The questions are intended to bring
out resourcefulness. for one thing.
what would you do If you had n
spring break?" was one question. Jaw,
I'd leave the truck alongside the road
and go call up garage or the service
station" This out on the road or In the
forests Of the continent.
"What would you do If you were 60
Ing up hill and had to stop your
truck. If you had no brakes?" "Well.
I'd let 1t slide back and turn the front
wheels so the rear ones would bump
into the curb and that would hold the
car" These are only two of a score of
impossible answers.
A little runt of n young man swag-
gered up to the desk. Here's boy
that probably does not know a trans
mission from cat on a telegraph
pole" thought the examiner, for he
told the story on himself.
"What do you know about trucks2''
CAV, everything"
"Did you ever drive a truck?"
Meme! Did ever drive truck 7

do? What would do?" with the
accent on the ~ "Wha'd dy v sup
pose I'd do? I'd block 1t up and 60
ahead. Done it lots O. times"
"Just suppose you broke rear
spring; could you get along2"
"Could get along?" again heavy
on the ~ "Say, mister, 1 can run a
truck If they's one axle gone. Don't
ask any of us boys that batted around
the border what to do in case O. breaks.
We know"
And there was no doubt he could do
all he said, for before he finished with
the examiner he had told him more
about quick repairs than the examiner
ever knew.

Alaska's needs and obviate the neces-
sity Of making shipments Of food pro-
ducts from the states. Along the
many streams adjacent to the railroad
is found plentiful supply Of cotton
wood and spruce, from which large
quantities Of pulp for paper making
can be derived.
The Importance Of Immediately COM
pleting this railroad can more readily
be appreciated when it is seen that the
navy could then be supplied with fuel
on the Pacific coast, without having it
shipped across the continent by rail,
thus releasing thousands of cars for
the transportation Of war materials
and food; and would also release the
ocean tonnage which is now required
to carry from the states practically all
of the coal consumed by the mining,
fishing, and other industries in Alaska.

Ouch ! ;! !? +! ! This kind of rough
talk will be heard less here In town II
people troubled with corns will follow
the simple advice of this Cincinnati
authority, who claims that few drops
of drug called freezone when applied
to tender, aching corn or hardened
callus stops soreness at once, and soon
the corn or callus dries up and lifts
right off without pain.
He says freezone dries Immediately
and never inflames or even irritates
the surrounding skin. A small bottle of
freezone will cost very little at any
drug store, but will positively remove
every hard or soft corn or callus from
ones feet. Millions of American women
will welcome this announcement since
the inauguration Of the high heels. II

What Our swamps Could Do.

Some swamp land at the mouth Of
the Mississippi is being reclaimed,
which is in size equal to the three
states of Indiana, Illinois and Ohio,
and it Is ten times as big as that lit
tie garden patch which we know as
Holland. The soil Of our swamps is
also ten times as rich MS that of The
Netherlands. Nevertheless, Holland is
now feeding almost 100000 people,
and at the same ratio our swamps
could feed 60,0OO,OOO, or 10 OOO, 600 more
than half Of all the people in the coun-
try today.

TO FEED ARMY WELL
Uncle Sam Training Thousands Of
Military Cooks.
Officials Seek to Remove Causes for
Complaint That Have Existed In
Previous Wars.

Uncle Sans new national army will
be well fed if preparation counts for
aught.
The general staff Is working on q
plan to feed the more than half-million
rockies who will assemble in the 16
environments for training.
The variety of the menu will neces-
sarily be limited to the regular army
ration. But it will be properly pre-
pared and served.
In recent wars the GRUB" of the
valiant volunteer has been the object
of scandal. 1t was "embalmed beef
In the Spanish war. On the border
last year the National Guard howled
Justify against the army mess. The
answer was incompetent cooks.
To guard against repetition of such
complaints, the general staff has com.
pleted plans to train a gigantic army
of cooks. Thousands Of young men
will be instructed in the art of MILL
tary culinary. When the environments
open the new cooks will be right on
the job, ready to feed the recruits.
The instruction will include how to
feed company Of $50 men three times
day on schedule time, kitchen sanl-
tation-of utmost Importance to the
health Of the men-and how to lend a
touch Of variety to the limited posi-
bilities of the army ration.
There will be no cause for apologies
for the food. officials are determined.
The regular army soldiers thrive on 1t.
1t will be properly prepared. And
there will be enough to keep every SOL
der well and fit, military heads say.
