A parson noted for his absent-mind-

thing he intended to say in the pulpit.
Then, after sitting down, he would rise
up again and begin his supplementary
remarks with, 'By the way"
Recently he finished his prayer. hes
itated, forgot what he was about, and
sat down abruptly without closing. In
n moment. however. he rose, pointed
his finger at his amazed congregation,
and exclaimed:

DANGER IN ROASTING

Perhaps the warning that our men in France should not boast too much of their intention to clean up" the Germans is not altogether needless. Mrs. Gertrude Atherton pointed out some time ago that the French, altho they welcomed and were grateful for our aid, were irritated by remarks which seemed to ignore all they had done and suffered during these three years. There is no reason to assume that the modesty of our Army as a whole is not equal to its valor, says the Philadelphia Ledger, but careless words or trifling incidents may leave their sting. Our Allies have been gen. erous in their recognition of the time- liness and importance of our entrance into the war, even if there was a feel ing that we might have acted more promptly. We have already done great things, and we shall undoubted. ly do greater But we should so far as possible leave it to others to dis cover our virtues. Boastfulness has sometimes been called our besetting national sin. There is no reason why it should be. All the honor we de- serve will come to us without our claiming it.

TO ''OUR BOYS.s

Here is q little advice to those who are in Uncle Sams service for the war. George Ade, the humorist, has turned his talents to helping the Ma tion win the war Among other hings, he says is this:
 After the fighting is over you will find yourself up against the highly important duty of going back to your hcme people and resuming the normal home life. Nearly every fighting man will have a wife or sweetheart wait ing for him. When she is countless miles away, don't overlook the fact that she is pulling for you and hoping for your return. When it comes time for you 10 return to her, don't be ashamed to return to her, don't be ashamed to meet her"

SAMMIES FIGHTING
 GAS IN TRENCHES
Return Heavy Machine Gun Fire With Effect; Huns Hurling
 Schrapnel

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, Nov. 21.-The Front line trenches or the Americans have been beseiged during the past week with gas While the poison fumes drift across No Mans Land" into the trenches where the Americans lay pro tected by their masks, the Huns have kept shrapnel bursting over the front line held by Pershing's men.
 During one of the night battles, the Germans both used gas and kept up heavy machine gun fire. which the Americans returned with good effects
 The Sammies in tffe gun pits. des pite the poison gas attacks, have kept up a constant machine gun fire, ap- preaching a barage which has kept the boche from attempting to come over the top behind the curtain of gas.
 While the American troops have not been allowed to advance beyond the front line trench except in night pa trols, there is feeling among the men who so far have served in the front line trenches that they should be allowed to "go across" and drive the Hun from his closeup position.
 General Pershing has warned his men repeatedly to wait orders and not to expose themselves to the sharp shooters of the foe. The commander in-chief, it is announced has just talk. en out $10,00O insurance policy, and the Army in France so far has taken out $2,200,000 in policies.
