Farland, president OF the American
Civic Association, in his address to-
day at the opening of the national
convention said:
This great land has accepted the
fact of conscription, and the calling
of our young men is proceeding, so
that they may be examined as to
their fitness to defend the nation,
Many have volunteered; but only the
physically fit, comprising the select
among the country's young manhood,
are accepted, are called to the colors
1t is fitting that their departure
TO the training camps should be cele-
brated patriotically. We honor Them
for they are going to our defense as
actually as did the men of 1861. The
uniforms they wear set them apart as
men of note. Many doors are oren to
them. There is acclaim for them,
and we properly concern ourselves
as to their physical and moral well
fare. here and when they reach the
war frontier.
BY separate process. selected
yes. per-selected-young men have
been put under training to command
the Liberty Armies of America.
, There is justification for the feel
ing that never before has a great
army been so assembled Selected
| from among ten millions of the coun-
try's young manhood, the accepted
men are trained in environments so
completely wholesome and sanitary

satisfaction that l here mention the
| distinguished service of members of
the American Civic Association who
have used their city-planning ability
in the arrangement of these canton

good.
This Liberty Army did not quite

sunset and sunrise, very fortunately

Manager of Creamery Gives Out In
tcresting Statement About Re
covery of His Health
NOW IMPROVED IN EVERY WAY

1T must have been several years

and Indigestion" said Mr.. Treadwell
A. Garrison, of Delaware, y. j., in
a statement he made few days ago
10 the Tanlac Man. Mr.. Garrison IS
manager of the Delaware Creamery,
and is widely known in Easton. Pa.
and in neighboring New Jersey
towns.
II suffered very severely from
catarrh and billiousness as we'll as
from stomach trouble" Mr.. Garri-
son continued. My appetite de-
serted me entirely. When 1 sat down
at the table l had no desire whatever
for food.
Even when 1 did force myself to
eat a little food, I was always trou-
bled with indigestion afterward At
times it was hard to keep anything
at all in my stomach, and l was
frequently vomiting and belching. l
spent many a sleepless night and in
the grip of one of these attacks.
II saw Tanlac advertised in the
Easton papers and decided to give it
a trial. One dose convinced, me that
I had found something that would
help me. Now the pain and tor
ment of my indigestion is gone. MY
catarrh has disappeared and I feel
improved in every way. The best
advice 1 could give to anyone who
has been suffering the way I did is
to try Tanlac."
Tanlac, the famous reconstructive
tonic, is now being introduced here

secured the exclusive sale of this
