SOLDIER "HIT THE TRAIL. .

The soldier boy is religious; he
studies the Bible closely and he is in.
terested in his own spiritual welfare
and that of his fellows.
These facts are pointed out by sec
retaries of the Y. NJ. C. A. in a report
just issued on the religious work of
the Red Triangle among the 300, 900
enlisted soldiers and sailors of the
central military department. In sup
port OF the statements, figures are
given to show that a total of 12,y1S
men at Camp Dodge attended 1874 re-
Hgious or eYangelistic services during
January and that 5.f92 others were
enrolled in 259 Bible classes conduct
ed under Y. M. C. A. auspices.
Thousands of men have thus been
induced to interest themselves more
deeply in thei own spiritual happiness
and welfare and TO make what are
known as forward step decisions"

SAVING TIE WOUNDED.

Test tie nerve of those Americans
evidently was the order given to the
German soldiers facing the sector helt
by our boys in France, and gas shells
and all other methods were used
Completely repulsed as the Germans
were, the test must have been any
thing but reassuring to them!
A correspondent talked with some
oi the American soldiers wounded in
the attack. One youth, whose home
lis in Savannah, Ga. and who looked
to be not more than Is years old, made
the following highly complimentary
reference to the American Red Cross
Observation-Disclosures and ambulance driv-
ers.
I've sure got to hand it to those
men with the Red Cross on their arms.
They all worked like dogs in that hell
out there. They seemed to have but
one idea-to do their duty-and APP
parently cared nothing for their own
lives while doing 1t. They were game
right TO the core"
In this connection it may be said
that there are certain number OF
men who wear the Red Cross whose
names are not on the casualty list.
II anyone has thought that Red
Cross worker goes out on battle field
only after the firing has ceased and
brings in the wounded. this statement

FORTY MILLION DOLLARS.

The Inland Daily Press association
is made UP of the publishers of Daily
papers in Indiana, Wisconsin, Illinois,
Iowa and Michigan. The Southern
Press association is like organization
of Daily papers in the Southern states
located cast of the mississippi river.
The territory embraced by these two
associations does not include to exceed
one.fourth to one-third of the United
States.
The secretary of the Southern Press
Association, who has been working
with the Inland to get the record OF
publications showing free space given
the government on war matters, in no
way paid for, telegraphed Mr. Urey
Woodson, at the session of the Inland
in Chicago, Feb. 81, report of re-
suits.
Since the meeting none of the In
land members, who had not responded
before have reported, which leaves its
membership having a report from
only third, and yet this is great
er report than any other group is
making, for out of some fifteen hun
bred calls sent out by Mr.. Johnson, he
had but two hundred and eighty-seven
reporting, which included the Inland
reports, as the Inland secretary had
forwarded all he received to Mr.. John
son, after tabulating them.
But the two hundred and eighty.
seven who did report to Mr.. Johnson
which every publisher knows is a
very small percentage of all news
papers in the United States, show the
enormous amount of forty-four million
dollars space given the government.
And it has all been given gladly and
willingly. and yet no other industry
in the United States is to be taxed on
gross business, nor is another industry
to be charged from fifty to nine hun
dred per cent, more than it costs the
government to render service, or at
least that much more than private cor
porations competing with the govern
ment haul the same tonnage for.
To in some way more fairly adjust
the excess charges proposed or now a
law to add to newspaper burdens, and
in no manner asking compensation for
the millions of free advertising given
government measures, at government
request, is this record being secured.

THE TRAGEDY OF RouMANlA.

! With the abandonment of the war by
: Russia Roumania has been inevitably
forced to make peace. Thus at the
very end Roumania is again the victim
of the same country by which it was
inveighed into the war and which then
attempted by treachery to deliver il
over to German.
| Graually the story of the betrayal OF
Roumania by the pro-German party in
control of Russia in the summer OF
1916 has come out. When Roumania
entered the war it was supposed the
iron ring about the Central Powers
had been completed. Roumania was
to drive south, and the allied force at
Saloniki north. The railroad from
Vienna to Constantinople was to De
cut and Turkey severed from her al
lies
At the outset the Roumanian troops
poured through the mountains into Au-
stria- Hungary. There they were en-
countered an Austro German army and
were held. Eventually they were for
ced back through the passes, while an.
other force of the Central Powers ad-
yanced from the south. The noun
tain barrier seemed to form such an
opportunity for defensive operations
that it was difficult to understand how
the Roumanians could be so readily
driven back. Now~ft is known that,
the army held out as long as it had
ammunition 1t was only when sup
plies were treacherously cut off by
the Russian government under the
pro German, Sturmer, that the army
had to give way.
The agreement under which Roum.
ania entered the war has recently
been printed.N 1t provided that Russia
should send military support and at
the same time should undertake a
joint offensive with the Russian left
wing near the Roumanian border.
Meanwhile the allies were TO furnish
ammunition by way of Russia, After
the conclusion OF The agreement the
Roumanian government delayed action
pending The arrival OF the ammunition.
II was forced i'm by a telegram from
the Russian premier reading: Now
or never" II you do not ''enter now
we will not allow Roumania ito enter
on Austro-Hungarian
soil"
The Western Allies reported that the
was on the way and Rou-
mania yielded to the Russian pressure. :
But the ammunition never came. II
was held up in Russia. For some time
no Russian re-enforcements were sent.
