which to the Freshman was great
surprise, namely, that they would
be entertained the next evening by
the Sophomore class. The party
began at eight o'clock in the Wash
ington Auditorium. There were
about seventy-fve present includ-
ing some of the teachers. The
kindergarten was given over to
dancing where music was kindly
furnished by Gunborg Berglund,
and the auditorium was used for
games. Everybody joined heartily
in drop-the-handkerchief, poison,
last couple out, Ruth and Jacob,
and other exciting pastimes. Re-
freshments were served by the
Sophomore girls and the Freshman
boys were especially appreciative.
Everybody enjoyed the party im-
mensly and all hope there may
soon be another of just such a
pleasant nature.

WHY NECESSARY ID CONSERVE SUGAR
 EXPLAINED (

PHOENIX, Zee. IS howirgr the necessity for ordering a reduction of fifty per cent in the consumption of sugar the food administration points D the fact tliat the production fore -2asts for all European countries indi- cate sharp decrease from last years crop as we'll as a decrease from the pre-war period
 The production of our western al- lies England, France and Italy, is51 7 951 tons below last years production and S66963 tons below the pre-war production. The decrease forecast for the neutral countries of Spain, Swift zerland, Holland, Denmark. Norway and Sweden, is: f26, ,439 tons compared with last year and 191 1928 tons com pared with the pre-war year.
 Much of the sugar used in England France and Italy before the war came from Germany and Austria. Englnad France and Italy need sugar and need sugar and need it badly and upon the United States and Cuba has fallen the burden of furnishing them by reason of tn efact that outside sources such as Java and Mauritius have cut off on account of the greas distance entailing an uneconomfca use of shipping.
 To supply this urgent need and tc supply it continuously necessitate: rigid economy on the part of all resi- dents of the United States and thi: accounts for the limitations whicf have been placed on manufacturer. and householders.

BEAR GOT ALL CAMPS HAMS
Trap Is Set and Mir. Bruin Furnishes Something to Take Place
 of Ham.

Bangor-With hams at present prices even a rich corporation like the Great Northern Paper company cannot afford to feed bears on that sort of fodder, and so it was distinct relief to the boss of the company's camp on Elm stream, nine miles from SeebOo- nook Falls, when the camp timekeep- CT, Raymond Dyer of Bangor, acted.
 In the camp on Elm stream was barrel of smoked hams. September 23 the barrel was full The morning of October 1 the barrel was hamless, the cook found. Tracks of young bear were around the building.
 Dyer set a trap. Tuesday morning at three o'clock the crew were aroused by a tremendous grunting and thrash ing. The ham thief was in the trap, fat, furry and furious, securely pinched by his right fore paw. A logger smashed the bears skull with an ax. The men ate some of the bear meat and Dyer got the skin, which he sold for a good price in Bangor, and also collected the state bounty, S5. from City Clerk Victor Brett.

THE NATIONS
 FIGHTING FORCE

PHOENIX. Arizona, Dec 11.-Offi- cial figures have just been received by the State Council of Defense con- corning the magnitude of the armies now being gathered against the Teu- tonic menace. The enlisted men un- der arms now number 1,36O,OO0, con- pared with only TIC, 900 last April. Al ready there are SO,00O officers and there will be 100000 very soon, or about as many as there were soldiers a short time ago. These figures are to be compared with those of the Spanish War, when 275, 800 were sum- moned and only 6O,OOO saw service. More men are under arms in the U-. s this month than az any time dur ing the Civil war. Though there were 2,700,000 enlistments in the fed, 0raI army, many were re-enlistments. in March, 1865, the Union army com prised 9SO.OOO men.
 Our forces also are to compared with the way that Great Britain en- tered the war, with 100000 men, call by the Kaiser, "a contemptible little army" Yet 1t served at Mons to stem the tide of invasion that might have covered Paris and it brought encoura cement and hope to the French. New another new force, ten times as great, is going forward, hop cd by the Allies enough iir the' wars fourth year to ensure victory. The new army will fight alongside a French army of 5000, 900 veterans and of British overseas forces amounting to. 3,OO0,O0O more, or a grand army on French soil of 7,36O,OoO, all with fresh equipment that American now is furnishing An especially formid- able army is furnished by the Ameri- can regulars, 300, ,000 of the most high ly trained troops on earth. many of them already on the battle line, led by Pershing, Siebert and Leonard Wood

SAILORS LEARN GOLF
Americans Put English Club on
 Paying Basis.
Parts by Tales of Generosity of Visitors.

Base American Flotilla in British Waters.-The American officers are be- coming top-notch golfers. Only a hand full of them played the game "back in the states" but now every destroyer numbers three or four devotees of the sport. The season is now in full swing, and almost any fair day groups may be seen monopolizing the links. The Americans not only have revived the game in these parts, but so many of them have taken up golf that they have put the local club on a paying basis and generally made themselves popular with the residents.
 When the Americans arrived the links, which are on the top of the cliffs overlooking the sea, were somewhat neglected, but they have now been put into f1rst-class condition, the grass has been cut and the greens have been rolled as never before. CaddieS have been attracted from distant parts, en- couraged by the generosity of the Americans, whose tips are much sought after.
 The clubhouse is a most picturesque old castle built in 1888.
 Tea Is served in the great room of the castle. Whitewash alone covers the rough stone walls and the ceiling.
 Ofttimes an old native member of the club will drop in to regale the Americans with tales of the clubhouse or anecdotes of the game. A native who gave up making golf sticks and bags has returned to his profession since the Yankee invasion" and he gives up his spare moments to teach ing the American beginners the fine points of the game.
 The course is nine-hole affair with plenty of hazards, but the Americans can play on an 1S-hole course by wis iting another links some five miles from their base.
