Baton Rouge, La, May %. The

with the United States Depart

Child Pet of the Soldiers

Several months ago when a COM
pany of English soldiers were march
ing out to the first line of trenches in
Flanders private named Philip
Impey found little girl of about
four years in ditch by the roadside.
AS no one could go back then, the
soldiers took the child with them in
to the trench and made her as COM
Portable as possible. Within a short
time she recovered from the effects of
the cold and exposure and was rum
ming up and down the trench, thor
oughly enjoying herself, having won
the affection of every man in the COM
pany. Within about $50 yards lay the
German trenches. The ground be-
tween the two lines of course was
exceedingly dangerous. Any man
ventured out onto it from either
trench would almost certainly be kill
ed before he had gone more than a
step or two and not even the most
reckless man would expose himself
at all above the parapets if it could
possibly be avoided.
One morning the Englishmen, look
ing out through their periscope, were
mortified to see their little protege
standing above the trench. on the
German side of the field. They heard
the German soldiers calling her and
realized that their cries were friend
ly; the Germans, touched at the sight
of the child, were making friendly
advances, Offering her chocolates and
inviting her to come and see them.
From that time on the child went over
the parapet quite frequently and she
was as safe in the zone between the
two hostile trenches as if she had
been miles away from any battlefield.
When the company's eight days of
trench duty came to an end the little
girl was taken back and was not al
lowed to go to the fighting line again.
Some time afterward the men decided
that she ought to be named. 1mpey,
the man who had found her in the
ditch, was dead but they gave her his
surname, with the name Phyllis, as
the nearest feminine approach to
Philip they could find.
After she had been with the COM
pany about six months one of the Of
ficers was wounded and when he re-
turned to England for treatment at a
hospital he took little Phyllis with
him. At the hospital she soon be-
came the pet of both patients and
nurses. The officer later adopted her
as his daughter and had her placed
under woman's care where she
would remain attached to his regi-
ment. The child's parentage and the
manner in which she came to be de-
serted in the ditch near the battle
field remain shrouded in mystery but
that makes no difference to her adopt
ed daddy" or to the soldiers who
are all devoted 70 her.

One day, shortly before the out
break of the war in Europe, st.
Johns, Newfoundland fishermen found
a valuable boat adrift on the fishing
ground. They took it into port with
them and some time later it was iden-
titled as the property of Stanley Cook
who paid them reward Of SIS for re-
turning lit. Cook and all his friends
were greatly puzzled as to how the
boat got adrift and though they
made careful inquiries and did some
ingenious sleuthing, they were unable
to clear up the mystery.
Then the war came on and Cook
as a member of Newfoundland regi-
ment went to fight under the British
flag. One night at Gallipoli when
the Newfoundland soldiers were
fraternizing with a crowd of Aus
tralians the conversation turned to
Newfoundland. Two Welshmen, men,
bers of the Australian contingent, re-
lated an experience they had had at
st. Johns.
They said they had been members
Of a Dutch schooner's crew and a
couple of months before the war
broke out had visited the Newfound-
land port. One night when the yes
sci lay at anchor in the harbor they
went ashore and when they were
ready to return to their vessel they
could find no boat. After looking
about for a time they appropriated
one moored to the wharf. In this
they rowed to the schooner and then
set the boat adrift.
Cook listened to their story with
considerable interest and no little
surprise for he realized that it was
his boat that had been used by the

A number of years ago a timid
Frenchman who had fallen in love
but lacked the courage to propose to
the woman of his choice wrote let
ter to her, telling Of his devotion and
asking that il she could look with
favor on his suit she answer. II she
did not reply, he wrote, he would un-
derstand that she cared nothing for
him.
Some 35 years later when the Paris
post Office was being torn down
workmen found behind a wainscoat-
ing a number of old letters. Among
them was one addressed to this timid
lover. Officials of the post Office un-
dertook to locate him but it was
found that he had moved years be-
fore from the address written on the
envelope. Search for him was con-
tinued and months later they found
him living in distant part of the
city, When he read the letter he was
gnief-stricken for it was from the
girl he had loved in his youth and in
it she confessed that she loved him
and had loved him from the time
they had first met.
The government officials evidently
were sympathetic, kind hearted men
for when they learned of the tragedy
of the lost letter they bestirred them

LIQUOR INTERESTS HIT HARD

No single blow struck at the liquor
interests Of the. United States ever
did so much damage as the 2 to 2
decision of the supreme court, affirm
ing the constitutionality of the Webb
Kenyon law, permitting any dry
state to prevent shipments of al
coholic liquors from outside its Dor
ders to persons Within those borders.
In the. American Year Book for 1918,
DIR. Ferdinand c. Iglehart estimated
that, if sustained, this law would de-
stroy "from is to- 20 per cent of the
liquor business in this whole coun-
try. In the judgment of many this is
an underestimate. But, outside of
its direct effect, the stimulus to the
State prohibition movement is ire
mendous. clubbing about inter-
state commerce is ended. The traf-
fic is handed over to the States. They
can do what they please. Mere pos
time be punished. That it came from
another state is no defense.

CLOUDS HANG LOW

The clouds hang low over the
whole Christian world at the incom-
ing of the year 1917, says a Chica-
go religious weekly. The war which
everyone expected to be over in three
weeks is now far along in it's third
year, and appears to be farther from
conclusion than ever. The victories
won by either party do not seem to
establish base for settlement, and
the defeats suffered certainly have
not crushed those who have fallen
only to rise again. One by one new
nations are dragged into the mael-
strom, and already the broad surface
of Europe from the Carpathians to
the Pyrennes is drenched with blood.
There seems to be little doubt tina,
other neutral countries will mobilize
their armies within the next few
months, and when the present strife
is ended, the questions which it has
raised between America and all the
belligerents will be found to have left
more than one open sore.
Nevertheless, we may enter upon
the New Year. with good thoughts
rather than dismal forebodings. The
God who has so richly blessed and
oft delivered this people is still up
Oh our LIE IflTOIe. lie IIlOILO WHICH
we placed upon our coins fifty years
ago is good one to recall today, an
God We Trust" No one else has the
wisdom to guide us through peril
GUS straits which we are approach
ing. or to keep us safe amid the ami
mosities which all Europe feels to-
ward us, not to speak of the vari-
Gus neutrality-suspicious. in Mexico,
Colombia and many other Latin
American republics whose jealous
les are apparent and whose interests
they believe clash with our own.
Within the next few years we shall
face embittered nations east, south
and west, with less than no prepara-
tion for self-defense. England has
found that the most powerful fleet
the world has ever seen cannot who'll
ly protect her shipping, and France
hos learned that one of the most
numerous, brave and patriotic arm
les in the world cannot win back her
lost mines and provinces.

ENGLISH sOUTBID US

Our government wanted some big
bullets for the navy and advertised
for bids but despite demands upon
British munition plants because of
the war, Hadfields, Limited, an Eng
lish concern, outbid American COM
.panies in proposals for 16-inch and
14-inch armor piercing projectiles for
the United States navy. Not only
were the English company's figures
more than $500 per projectile below
Che, nearest American competitor,
: but the time is cut in half, the shells
to be delivered in the United States,
duty paid. n3r
1t is too bad that our own manu-
facturers lost out in the bidding. This
business should be kept at home, but
possibly in these days of war and
high cost of living, the manufactur-
ers thought any old bid would be ac-
cepted. faf
