ing the same interest and maturing
at the same time as the Liberty Loan
bonds.
The wisdom of this policy is beyond
question. By strengthening these ma
tions and making them as powerful
and as effective as possible we are
greatly aiding in the shortening of
the struggle; we are doing much to
insure an ultimate victory; we are
doing only that which it is our duty
to do toward our allies in this tre-
mendous war against an autocracy
which would debase and enslave all
nations and men.
The fact that if we did not advance
this money much of the work which
the Allies are doing would have to be
done with American money and Amer
| lean men establishes clearly the in
| telligence and wisdom of our policy.
| There is work to be done which re-
quires the expenditure of blood and
treasure. In making these money ad-
vances to Great Britain, France, Italy,
and other nations we are lending
money, which will be returned to us,
instead Of eXpending sums possibly as
great, possibly greater, with no hope
of return. In addition, we are saving
the lives of American soldiers.
No policy the American government
has pursued is wiser or more truly
economical and patriotic.

Campaign for Substitution of Wood
Goal

Campaign for Substitution of Wood
for Coal.
To help meet the shortage of 50,-
100000 tons in the country's coal sup
ply. the fuel administration, in CO.
operation with the Department of Ag-
riculture, has inaugurated an inten-
sive campaign for the substitution Of
wood for coal.
Zone cord of hard wood is equal to
a ton of COAL" said an announcement
by the fuel administration. "One ton
of coal is released for war use for
every cord of wood substituted. Sta
tistics show that there is vast
amount of dead wood in many sections
Of the country and that the supply of
wood in many communities is suffic-
lent for domestic purposes in those
2artS."
Much of the wood in communities is
destroyed by waste, it is pointed out,
and it's conservation not only would
conserve coal, but would prove a
measure Of economy to the users.
New England and the South, the
statement said, have an abundance of
wood and in the latter section activi-
oies already are under way looking
| to an intensive campaign for the sub
stitution of wood. In this connection
it was announced that the department
of agriculture would provide the ser
vices of expert foresters without
charge to supervise the cutting OF
wood so that no damage would be
done to growing timber and that the
largest use might be obtained of the
wood supply.

o. s. ENGINEERS IN FRANCE
Played Important Part in Success
full Breaking of Hindenburg

British Army Headquarters in
American ner; eng engineer corps, the first st
played an important part in success
full breaking of the Hindenburg line
last week. AS the British troops
would advance the engineers could be
seen in the rear building roads.
One of the most striking sights
along the front has been that of the
engineers laboring coolly at their
tracks while great shells were burst
ing one hundred yards away.
At one time the Germans cut loose
with their guns on section Of the
tracks and tore up three miles of rails
but they scarcely had finished this
bombardment when the twin lines OF
| steel began to creep forward once
more. After the engineers had reach
ed point where they were exposed
on the sky line it was necessary te
work at night or on foggy days.
There have been three forces Of
Americans employed in this region
since about August l. Two of then
have been occupied with the operation
and maintenance of light railways ant
the other has been constructing mar
row guage lines.
The correspondent visited many O
these engineers since their arrival an
has found them fit and eager fo
work.
The correspondent was talking wit
three officers today and the only ar
xiety they expressed about the futur
was the fear that they might late
be compelled to work far back of tn
! lines out of the fighting zone. Th
4 engineers love to hear the guns an
t to get as close to the firing line q
I military orders permit.
: Some of them had an unusual e,
a perience, much to their liking, on tt
: first day of the offensive. The Bri
r ish called for volunteer stretche
: bearers to go forward to the battl
! field and bring in wounded Britis
: and Germans. A large number of Il
/ engineers offered their services whit
e were accepted. They just had finisl
4. ed hard days work on the railwa
n but they gladly undertook the ne7
d arduous and dangerous task a1l |:

SURE OF RUSSIA'S FUTURE
Character of Great Peasant Class VIII
Make for Stability

Make for Stability.
Events in Russia have of late so
stumbled on one another's heels that
the Americans natural mood is one
of bewilderment. 1t is hard, among
conflicting reports, to judge the true
state of affairs, still harder to pre-
dict the future. For it is only on the
basis Of first hand knowledge Of the
Russian people that any conjectures
are possible on this question, which
is of the most momentous concern to
the United States. Mr.. Charles Ed
ward Russell, member of the Root
commission to Russia, in the third of
his series Of articles on "The New
Russia in the Making" which appears
in Hearts Magazine for December,
gives striking picture, remarkable
for detail and insight, of the little
known Russian people themselves
the peasants, on whom the fate of the
country now hangs. His observations
are worthy of careful study, for they
overthrow completely the common no
tion of the Russian peasant and will
force many people to reverse their
opinion on the character and future
of the Russian nation. Our clearest
pictures have hitherto been derived
from novels WfICCou Ia Tile IlIlSCSSuCI
century. But much water has rur
under the mill; the novels describe
conditions which, since the emanci
patton of the serfs, have gradually
ceased to exist. In place of these an.
tiquated ideas, Mr. Russell gives US
view, Photographic in it's complete
ness, of the real Russian peasant o1
today. The study which he has made
of the underlying causes Of the recen
revolution-the gradual change il
the peasants mode of life, the chair
Of cause and effect through which thu
autocracy wrought its own doom
! -r5v3 tat he .e7T Russia did 10
spring into being in a day. He prick
the bubble of the belief that the Rus
slams are a nation of ignorant barba
rians, unfit to work out destiny o
government; and he draws an in
teresting parallel between the condi
tions making for individualism in tn
United States and those which hav
; gone to develop strong social sens
in the Russian people. So cogent a
account of facts and forces now {
work, furnish the foundation of a.
. tuality, on which alone calculation
;, as to the future of the Russian repul
lie can be based.

GERMANS SEEK DECISION

Realize They Cannot EndureMuch
Longer Strain Of Trench War
fare-Seeretary Bakers Week
ly Review.
An effort by the Germans to bring
on decisive engagement on the wes-
tern front is suggested in the War
Departments review of military op-
erations for the week ending Decem-
Der l, issued Monday night by Secre-
tary Baker.
"The outstanding feature of the
general military situation today Says
the review, ''is to be found in the ev-
er-lncreasing mobility of action of the
forces engaged.
ut seems that a decision is being
sought by the enemy, who realizes
that he cannot endure for a much
longer period the strain of trench
warfare imposed by the Allies in the
west.
''This explains the effort of theCen-
trail Powers in massing considerable
! forces in order to invade Italy-a con-
centration of troops made possible by
= the internal situation in Russia.
This offensive was undertaken to
l crush the Italians and compel them
to sue for peace.
Give weeks Of desperate fighting
! has brought them no nearer their real
objective.
''The Italian armies suffered severe
| reverses in the early stages of the bat
1 tie. They were compelled to give way
! and for time the military situation
! on the Italian front was serious. But
Z the enemy had under estimated the
resisting power Of the Italians.
"The hoped-for revolution in Italy
which had been sedulously fomentee
by German propagandists and which
was an important part of the German
plan Of invasion, failed to materialize
"The Italians by magnificent EFF
| fort reorganized their broken forces
l backed by the Allies, were able, sin
/ gle-handed. to check the Austro-Ger
man invasion.
"It would be futile to underestimate
the great losses, both of men and ma
terial suffered by the Italians. Thes
losses should serve to set forth i
1 bolder relief of the heroic efforts O
i these elements of the armies whic
] were able to thwart the plans of tn
central empires.
"The closing of the Swiss frontie
for two weeks may indicate that tn
enemy is transporting large force
both men and guns, to the west.
"The enemy is constantly detachin
large contingents from the easter
theatre. All good troops which ca
no possibly be spared are being dispatcl
1872 ed to other zones Of operations.
$50 that, though the season is NJ
propitious for engaging in milital
enterprises on a larger scale, yet ov
ing to the imperative necessity for
continuance Of this mobility, furths
offensives are to be anticipated.
"On the other hand, the Allies w!
give the enemy no respite and any o
fensive undertaken by the German
will be promptly met by a counte
stroke of greater severity"
After discussing the situation
the various fronts the review co
cludes:
"In the Palestine theatre of oper
tions, the rapid advance of the Br
ish on Jerusalem after the fall of Js
ia has been temporarily retarded. I
resistance of the Turkish forces h
considerably increased and the nece
sity Of bringing up further reinfort
ments and material has caused del
in the offensive operations.

ing in charge:
Troop Committee 7. I. Swift,
C. c. Carr and A. G. McAlister.
Troop Leaders,. w. Jones,
scout master; F. l.. Glisson and
Perry Sowell, assistant scout
masters; George Graham and
Charles Waughtal. patrol leaders;
Gordon Graham and Floyd Nc
Bride, assistant patrol leaders;
Herrold Higgins, scout scribe.
The leaders hope soon to have
the Troop in perfect working or
der, as nothing can be done to
advantage as long as some of the
boys try to cause a disturbance.
1t is hoped that the parents of
the boys will assist in this work.
The scout master would like to
have a talk with the parents or
guardians of each boy, to explain
the work and the part the par
ents are expected to take.
Since it's organization, tn e
Troop has been meeting in the
Methodist Church. Permanent
headquarters have been arranged
for and soon the Troop will have
it's own rooms, where the work
can be carried on more satisfac-
tory.
Much of the time during the
winter is to be devoted to physi-
cal training, first aid and general
scout work. A close watch is to
be kept on the progress of the
boys school work. and those who
need assistance will be helped in
this line.
While we feel that the parents
of the boys should be especially
interested, we also hope that the
general public will lend us their
support and assist US in keeping
our notices, which are:
do a Good Turn Daily and
BE Prepared"

Can Hunt Deer
for One Month Only

The attention of hunters in
Graham County is called to the
following communication from
Forest Supervisor L. 7. Swift:
EDITOR, GRAHAM GUARDIAN,
Stafford, ARIZONA.
DEAR SIR: The game laws pro-
vide a deer season from October
1st to November 1st, in which
one individual with license is en-
titled to one male deer with
horns.
By an Act of the 1917 Arizona
Legislature, Mt. Graham was
created a game preserve; the
boundaries of which conform to
the present boundaries of this
division of the Crook National
Forest. Under Section 8 of this
law, it shall be unlawful for any
person or persons at any time to
hunt. trap, kill. capture, or en-
snare any bird or animal of any
kind whatever within the limits
of any State game preserve with
in the State of Arizona; provided,
that the provisions of this Act
shall not apply to the killing,
capture or destruction of any
mountain lion, fox, coyote, lynx,
wildcat or skunk.
1t will be seen, therefore. that
the present game laws prohibit
the hunting or killing of any
thing on Mt. Graham, except
these animals mentioned above.
The penalty under this Act for
the killing of deer is severe, and
| do not hesitate to state that |
will take all the means possible
to give all violators the limit.
Very truly yours,
THEODORE t. SWIFT,
Forest Supervisor.
