TALK EARLY DAYS
 0F RIVER TRAFFIC
Recollcctions of II. $. Steamboat In. spector of Greenwood, Who In-
 spected Local TOwbOat Yesterday.

Captain Chas H. Greenwood and J. B. Wyckoff. United States steamboat inspectors, whose headquarters are in ed the steamer Ralph Hicks at this port, and passed her as 0. k. They arrived here Tuesday evening and left yesterday afternoon for home.
 While here Captain Greenwood dis russed old river days with Captain Jeff Hicks. with whom he steamboated some years ago. They swapped gos- sip about the palmy days of river steamers. when palatial -wheelers ran on the Mississippi. and there was regular service between Memphis and Pine Bluff and with Little Rock.
 As was most natural, both lOnged for return of the river traffic, and were agreed on the salient point, that the rivers can solve the problem of freight traffic, as the Mississippi with its tributaries can distribute freight throughout the Mississippi river wat CT shed, which extends from the Ale ghenies on the east to the Rockies on the west, though every village and hamlet could not be touched by the packets. and small boats.
 With all this, river transportation could feed the river towns. from which good roads radiate in every di- rection, and some kind of a railroad operates, so that merchandise and foodstuffs could be carried to the in terior points.
 Captain Greenwood recalled the steamer Mary Belle. a side-wheeler built ill 1S75. with a capacity of 10,- coo bales cotton. She ran between Memphis and New Orleans, carrying orc trip I,S0c oales and 9o0G sacks seed. In those days. four sacks would equal bale of cotton The beat burned at Vicksburg, after making nine round trips. Captain Greenwood recalled the fact that cotton and seed are worth much more today than i'll those days.

You needn't be so darned scared that if you are sent to France with the American troops you'll come home in a box or a rubber bag. Deaths among the Canadian contingent, the hardest fighting bunch in the field of North ern France. have been equal to only , per cent of the force. As an Ameri- can, you ought to be sport enough to be willing to take a 95-to-5-shot.

Pitilcss publicity for those claiming exemption from army service under the draft act is the policy of the war department. This will not set well with some people, but it will be an ef- fective check on claims not justified by facts. And the man who really has valid claim has no cause for com- plaint.
