PUBLIC WARNED NOT TO HEED
WILD RUM0RS.

The circulation of extravagant
rumors and wild tales of victory is
as harmful to- the interests of this
country in the present struggle o.
the spreading of adverse reports
would be. Recently the report was
flashed from one end of the country
to the other regarding a great VIC
tory of the Allies on the Western
front. In many parts of the coun-
try people went wild with joy, only
to be cast down into corresponding
depths of depression on learning that
the report was utterly without foun-
dation.
The people of Paris and the
county should not give ear to re-
ports that do not come from entirel. :
reliable sources. Telegraphic news
in the papers, from reputable news
agencies, can be relied upon as be-
ing correct, or at least approximately
so. The metropolitan dailies, as a
rule, have reliable correspondents at
the front, and their reports can De
received as the truth. But reports
circulating from mouth to mouth
frequently start from nothing, bat
grow with the telling.
In justice to the news agencies
and the newspapers of the country
it should be said that none of these
fake reports have originated with
or been circulated by them. Such
reports in most cases, if they could
be traced to their original source.
would be found to have sinister
origin-enemy propaganda-with a
view of disturbing the peace of the
country and creating unrest and ex-
element. We should keep cool and
believe nothing that is not fully
vouched for, trust in our Govern
ment and our armies, and put OIL
energies into our part in the
winning of he war.
Some time ago a report was circu-
lated that the Allies had captured
four hundred thousand Germans in a
sensational attack on the latter
lines. One of the German residents
of Paris raced the streets trying to
get accurate information in regard
to the news. A NEWS man traced
the rumor to its source, and finally
ascertained that a Paris man re
turning from Lexington, had sail
that somebody told him that he heard
that the Lexington Leader had q
dispatch from Cincinnati to the eff
feet that the Allies had captured
four hundred thousand Germans
That's all there was to it. Belieys
nothing you hear, unless you haS
reason to think it comes from a re-
liable source!

REFUTE ISLANDERS ON OUR BOYS
IN FRANCE.

A certain publication in Washing.
ton, D. c., maintained by a certain
church, has kept UP persistent
campaign of SANDER and vitupera-
ton of 'our boys in France" based
upon a report that the boys were
leading immoral lives, especially
drinking hard.
These ISLANDERS have been refuted
time and again, publicly and pri-
vately, yet this publication contin-
ues it's game of trying to make the
people believe what it says. In di-
rect opposition to this sheet come
the following from an official and
reliable source:
Secretary Baker Wednesday told
President Wilson and his War Cab
met that the condition of the Amer
lean troops was fine. He assured
the Cabinet also that the United
States so iiers were making good.
In a statement to the public M
urged whole-hearted support of the
fighting forces overseas"
At meeting of representatives
from all over Ohio at a Y. M. G. A.
Conference, John Sherman Hoyt, of
New York, who has just returned
from an eight-months' investigation
of conditions in France, stated:
Il want to register testimony in
behalf of the boys in France in re-
gard to. the drink problem. Never
in all the time 1 was in France die
see single drunken American
soldier or sailor, and 1 travelled pref
ty largely through the areas where
our troops came ashore and where
they were getting their training"
Still, it would be pretty hard IT,
convince this Washington sheet, ed
tied and abetted by bigots and hard
shells, that they are wrong. Fo:
the good of the country the publ
cation ought to be suppressed.

DO YOU SLEEP WELL?

To be at his best man must have
sound, refreshing sleep. When wake
full and restless at night he is in no
condition for work or business dur
ing the day. Wakefulness is often
caused by indigestion and constipa-
ton, and is quickly relieved by
Chamberlain's Tablets. Try dose
of these tablets and see how much
better you feel with a clear head and
good indigestion.

Officials Interpret Call
of Lloyd George as Plea
to Arouse the Con,pIacent

The appeal Of Lloyd George for ur-
gent haste in American troop move
ments to France, read in New York last
night by Lord Reading. British ambas-
sador, was viewed here today as a call
to the American people.
British officials are already fully ad-
vised as to the situation here and know
that the American government is
straiaine every resource to get men to
the front and has confident, hopes of
placing force of a million or more
men in the field during the present
year.
Reports Of what the United States ac-
tua1ly might do to reinforce the British
and French troops were about the COM
monest things in the capital today. For
none OF them was there any color Of Off
cial foundation.
All Army officers pointed out that what
ever disposition is to be made of the
American forces will be decided by the
Versailles war council, in which Gen.
OF the American Army. Whatever dispo-
sltions are decided upon, under this plan
OF unified command, which President
Wilson himself strongly urged on the al
lies. probably will become known to the
War Department some time after they are
made.
The untiring enthusiasm of the Amer
lcan people as a whole. officers pointed
OUT. mus Dack these efforts, however,
II they are TO be successful. The task
OF moving the men rests as mucn with
shipbuilders. both employers and en-
ployes. as with any government agen-
cy. 1t was regarded as probable that
Lloyd Georges message was calcu-
lated to reach the men in the. ship
yards and munition plants and picture
for them the urgent need of haste with
their part of the great task
The extent of American military aid to
the allies this year depends on the work
done IN American plants of all kinds The
rate at which troops are expected to go
forward cannot be stated. for military rea-
sons, but it is largely dependent upon the
speed with which ships are turned out
Secretary Baker is in London and has
conferred with Lloyd George and other
British officials. to whom he has been
able to explain his problems in bringing
effective reinforcements into the great
struggle.
Officers here have for months been ap-
prehensive of the attitude of complacency
on the part of the country at large Lloyd
Georges call may help, they hope, to
bring realization of the urgency of the
case home as no other appeal might do.
Certainly, officers think. through Gen.
Pershing, commanding the American
forces in France; Gen. Bliss. at the su-
preme war council, in Versailles, and
more recently directly through Secretary
Baker. British and French officials are
completely informed as to the purposes
and plans of the American government.

FOR AMERICAN AID
Lord Reading Asks U. S. Rein.
forcements in Message
Read to Lotos Club.

NEW YORK, March 2S.-A MESA ge
from David Lloyd George. prime min
lister of Great Britain. calling upon the
United States to send american rein
forcements across the Atlantic in the
shortest possible space of time was
read last night by Lord Reading. Brit
ish high commissioner to the United
States, at dinner given here in his
honor.
I'VE are at the crisis of the war, at
tackled by an immense superiority of
German troops" said the premier in his
message. Our army has been forced to
retire. The retirement has been car
ried out methodically before the pres
sure of steady succession of fresh
German reserves which are suffering
enormous losses.
THE situation is being faced with
splendid courage and resolution. The
dogged pluck of our troops has for the
moment checked the ceaseless onrush
of the enemy, and the French have now
Joined in the struggle. But this battle.
the greatest and most momentous in
the history of the world, is only just
beginning. Throughout it the French
and British are buoyed with the knowl-
edge that the great republic of the
west will neglect no effort which can
hasten its troops and its ships to Eu-
rope.
In war, time is vital. 1t is impossible
to exaggerate the Importance of get
ting American reinforcements across
the Atlantic in the shortest possible
space of time"

Lotos Club in honor of Lord Reading.
was the most largely attended of any
in the history of that organization.
