Cant Trust a German"
Christy Picture Subject

Howard Chandler Christy, the ar
list and illustrator, whose war post
ers have been of vastly material as
slstance to the various branches of
the service in their recruiting cam
paiSns, has just finished another one
for the Marine Corps. 1t shows a
Jaunty young maid, attired in the
marine uniform, buckling on a sword
and other belligerent paraphernalia,
| preparatory to rushing into the fray.
| In the distance are seen thousands
of marines rushing to the front line.
The slogan, IF You Want to Fight
Join the Marines" tells in language
as graphic as the picture the his
tory of the brave men who are under
the command of Major General
George Barnett. Christy is telling
the following war story which was
! originally narrated to him by Lieu
| tenant Richee, of the French army:
After charge upon the German
| lines by the French troops, a soldier
| of La Belle France saw the body of
a German infantryman hanging from
the barbed wire barrier. He also no.
! ticed that on the feet of the German
was very good pair of shoes. His
| own footgear, being much dilapidat-
| ed, the Frenchman approached he
! corpse of his enemy and was unlac-
| ing one of the shoes when the Teu-
| tons pedal extremity wiggled Wig
orously. The poilu started back in
amazement and cried: THAT is lust
| like a German. You cannot trust
them even when they are dead"

Passenger Cars Move
With the Truck Trains

| The sight of long trains of olive
drab motor trucks leaving Detroit
| for the Atlantic seaboard is rapidly
| becoming a familiar sight; for it is
now daily occurrence. Each truck
! train is accompanied by a smaller
/ train of passenger cars.
In the middle of last winter truck
makers in Detroit began the delivery
of war trucks over the snow-covered
roads. Though the governme ent itself
! is the purchaser of the trucks, it was
| impossible to secure enough freight
cars to ship the daily scheduled pro-
duction. In spite of all the road diff
| ficulties of the severest winter on
record, the road delivery was sue
cessful and has been continued, un-
! til now. two companies of soldiers
drive away sixty trucks a day. six
Dodge Brothers cars go along with
each truck train, also destined for
service overseas.
| The plan of driving the huge war
| trucks overland is a success not only
from the standpoint of getting the We
! hicles to their destination regularly
and PROMPTLY. but also from the
standpoint of transportation of war
materials. Many Detroit factories
are busy with government contracts,
and the trucks carry huge quantities
of war materials of all sorts on each
| trip to the Atlantic ports. The rail-
roads are relieved of the task of
carrying much tonnage, and munf-
! tions are reaching their seaboard
| shipping points in a steady stream.

Lack of Safe Harbors

In recent publication on The

Commerce of the United States
Coast and Geodetic Survey. the Su-
perintendent, E. Lester Jones, calls
public attention to the radical diff
ferences between the conditions and

coast of the United States. according
to Popular Science Monthly While
the many excellent and harbors scat
tered between Maine and. Texas, the
Pacific coast of the United States,
which has a length of about LOO
nautical miles. has only a few har-
bors which are available as a refuge
for ships in stormy weather. There
are no real harbors between Los An
geles and San Francisco, distance
of 367 miles and only five bar har-
bors, safe in bad weather, between
San Francisco and the Strait of Juan

Opera Hat Has Enclosed
Electric Light For a Sign

From a French inventor comes
an advertising sign in which an opera
hat is its housing, says Popular Sci
ence Monthly. The sides of the hat
are cut so that letters are remov-
ed that spell out words of the sign.
These letter holes are covered over
with a thin light fabric of the same
color as the hat When unlight-
ed the letters remain invisible, but
with one or more battery lamps
placed inside and lighted, the hat
becomes a conspicuous advertise
ment. The batteries may be carried
in the pocket and wired under the
coat to the neck and up to the hat
over the hair on the back of the
head. The current can be flashed
on and off with a switch in the coat
pocket. This is a real novelty in adj
vertising signs and one which would
be sure to attract attention.

she says in her complaint, she went

of the two male persons said: Here
comes two babies. What's the matter
with them ?" Miss Clifford hurried
on little faster and darted into the
elevator. But she was not quick
enough to elude the men.
1t was on the downward trip. that
the osculatory episode complained of
occurred. Miss Clifford says from the
very first the conduct of the men
was so offensive that she asked the
elevator operator to stop and let her
out. He did nothing of the sort,

CARING FOR
WOUNDED CZECHS
American Admiral Ordered a Hospi.
tai Built

Vladivostok, Oct. 2-Wounded
Cezechs and Slovaks, victims of the
fighting north of Nivelsk, were the
special charges of the officers and
men of an American warship prior to
the arrival of the American Red
Cross contingent from Toxic. They
were attended by the ships doctor,
fed by the ships steward and waited
upon day and night by the big
ed sailors.
When the need became apparent
Admiral Knight ordered a nearby
warehouse emptied of its contents
and there he improvised a hospital.
Several of the more serious cases had
to be removed to a marine hospital
for special treatment. They begged
to return to their cots in the ware
house ard to the administrations of
the "jackies." The efforts of the lat
ter to out do one another in showing
kindness to the wounded men was
touching. They gave up their beds
and pillows to them.
When the Czechs arrived they
were naturally in filthy and ragged
state. The sailors provided them
with sheets in which to wrap them
selves while they, the sailors, washed
their tattered garments. The ships
officers were deeply moved by the
devotion of the men and listened
good naturally to anxiously manu-
featured protests put forward by the
sailors to go ashore and look after
their charges.

these:

parcels done up with such loving
as a wife bcstows upon her husband"
"The print of our books is clear as

Customers are treated as politely

BEWARE OF THE GERMAN spy
Watch for the spy!

Watch for the spy!
He exists.
He is sitting next to you when
you bring forth the letter you have
Just received from "over there" He
is sitting next you when you return
from a visit to camp, full of the
things that someone told you in
str;ctest confidence He is lurking
everywhere-and his expressions of
enthusiasm for the war may be only
q mask.
Say nothing! Do not talk of when
your brother or uncle or cousin OR
sweetheart hopes to sail. If you
know, keep it quiet If you don't
know, do not speculate in public.
There are too many eager ears wait
ing for just such information.
And don't believe that there are
not spies in America, here for years
in the past. Don't class as fiction the
statement that Germany hoped to
conquer Europe in three months,
then turn on America. For that is
exactly what Germany did scheme
and did hope for-and it had laid it's
every plan. Just how carefully those
plans were laid is perhaps illustrated
in the fact that in Berlin there is a
file index that tells Germany more
about your own locality than per-
haps you know yourself. The To-
cation of bridges, of factories, OF
! munitions works, of water supplies.
