KEEP LOST MEMS PHOTOS
Navy Department Is Anxious to Per-
petuate Memory Of En-
listed Men.

MISUNDERSTANDING Daniels is
anxious to preserve in the navy's rec
ord photographs of all men of that
branch who have lost their lives In
the service. He is requesting rela-
tives and friends to send photographs
to the recruiting division, bureau d
navigation, navy department.
The purpose is to p~erpetuate the
memory Of enlisted men. officers are
required to provide photographs and
official pictures are taken of all grad
yates of Annapolis.
AS rapidly as photographs of en-
listed men are received copies will be
made for the records of the navy de-
pertinent and the originals returned
to the owners. A photograph Of each
mar will be forwarded by the de-
partment to the training station where
he began his career in the service.
There, a memorial gallery or hero's
will be formed.

PLAN PUBLISHING CAMPAIGN
To Tell Public Truth About the Candy
Situation.

he candy makers of Washington arr
planning to tell the general public thu
facts about the candy industry and abour
candy as a food product.
Due to much MISUNDERSTANDING and &c
a lack of a definite knowledge of the
facts, the candy industry has been
brought to the verge of collapse.
Ask the average man or woman how
much sugar goes into the making OF
candy and you will find that it is the
general opinion that all the way from
Is to 50 per cent goes into candy max
ingA
is has led many people to believe
Tn the candy factories were still fur
Their restricted or possibly entirely put
out OF business, the sugar shortage prob
lem would be solved.
But this is not correct.
Far from using rs to so per cent the
candy industry uses something less than
8 per cent of the sugar used in this coun-
try.
Even if the entire amount were cut off
from candy making, the sugar situation
would not be greatly relieved.
The candy makers contend that all
should share alike in the saving of.
sugar. They have already given until
it hurts. There is no more patriotic
body of men than the men in the candy
business and they have gladly given up
their supplies, bot they now feel that the
interests of the country call for a def
mite knowledge of the facts. People
must realize that the candy industry
alone cannot save enough sugar to solve
the problem. Many people, without
knowing the facts, have felt that candy
could be curtailed and the problem solv-
ed. But facts show that the place to
save sugar where it really counts is in
the home, from now on. Figures show
out of the "a pounds normally used
~ each person in the United States in
one year, less than 7 pounds are used in
candy, while 60 pounds are used in the
nome on the table. The saving of 10
Der cent in the home is nearly equal to
he saving of 100 per cent in the candy
industry. Candy makers believe that a
-alr-minded public, with these facts in
mind, will be willing to help share the
train to the end that the big industry
an survive and go through without fur
her curtailment as the curtailment is
low coming to the point where the flu
ure of the industry is looked to with
ear.
1t is believed by the candy makers that
S the general public comes to learn of
he high food value of candy and also
ealizes the lengths to which the in
ustry has already gone that relief will
lot be withheld.
The series of advertisements is the
of expression selected by the
makers as a means to enable them
. get the full facts before the public.

misunderstanding the many easy

MOSCOW BOY BECOMES
MAJOR IN II. s. ARMY

It has been automatically reported that
a Moscow boy, Donald Henley, has been
promoted to the rank of major in the
United States army on June II, 1918.
Major Henley, it may be remembered,
received his early education in the Mos
COW public schools and the University
of Idaho. From the University of Idaho
he was given an appointment to the
West Point military academy by Sen
ator Hepburn, having been especially
recommended by Francis Jenkins. He
successfully completed his course at
West Point and graduated in 1915. He

spent three months at home with his
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. A. A. Henley, of
this place, after which he was called into
active service on the American border
during the Mexican trouble.
From Douglas, Ariz., he was sent to
Camp Forest, Ga, where he was special
instructor in broad sword and bayonet
work.
In April, 1918, he was permitted to 90
across the seas with a part of his regi-
ment, the 18th infantry.
1t is very gratifying to the friends of
the young man, who is only n years old,
to know of his rapid promotion.

Fortunate for the Allies.

Until March Of this year this Czecho.
Slovak army had been stationed in the
Ukraine-5O,OOO men in line and $1,000
more II reserve. Then bolshevik rep
resentatives dissolved their organiza-
ton and took away their arms, though
about 10000 refused to part with their
weapons. They were given promises
that they would be allowed to leave
Russia for the United States, but, OF
course, no means of transportation
were provided. And so they remained
where they were.
1t was fortunate for the allies that
they did. AS soon as they realized
that Germany's chief objective in
Russia was the Ukrainian grain sup
ply they began a systematic campaign
Of pillage and burning, in which they
were assisted by the peasants them
selves, aroused at the thought that
the old landowners were to return un-
der German protection.
The evidence that the Czecho-Slo-
vaks were successful is incOntestable.
Count Czernin, Austro-H Hungarian
prime minister until his little ex-
change of pleasantries with M.
Clemenceau, placed the responsibility
for the bare Ukrainian cupboard on
the shoulders of the Czecho-Slovaks
German representatives In the Aus
trian reichsrath repeated the charge In
greater details. A Magyar deputy in
the Hungarian parliament recently de-
clared, that the Czecho-Slovak army in
Ukraine had burned or taken away
everything of value.
Had Their Revenge.
Not only did they destroy what they |
could, but they fought bitterly to pre-
vent the Teutons taking what was
left. Retiring and hampered by their
lack of equipment, they stopped to
meet the advancing Germans repeat
eddy in the field. Their last battle,
one of those confused struggles which
get little space in the cable reports,
was fought neal Bachmac, halfway
between Kieff and Kursk on the road
to Moscow. After the fight, though
the Czecho-Slovaks had been armed
with axes, they themselves
buried more than 300 Germans.
Certainly in Ukraine the Czecho-
Slovaks have had their revenge for
three centuries Of suffocation and
oppression in Bohemia. But through
tering blows against their Austrian
German enemies and the whole
ldea of Mittel Europa.
