Here is story told by an Indianapo.
lis woman:
"The other evening as I was walk
ing over the long bridge that extends
back Of the Union station In Baltimore
my eye, searching for something inter
esting, caught sight Of small news
bOy-just little, dirty-faced chap
that one does not look at twice. What
especially drew my attention to him,
however, was something unusual in
the way he drew ont one Of his papers,
folded it into very small compass, and
tossed it over the railing into the
freight yard below. My eyes involun-
tarily followed the direction of the pa
per, and ais I peered over the balus-
trade I saw stirring scene, numbers
of big army trucks and scores Of our
boys bustling round busily and cheer
lily unloading and reloading them. One
of the soldiers was in the act of wav-
ing his hand in thanks to the boy
whose paper he had just picked up.
much interested, I moved over to
the little fellow. Under cover of buy
ing paper and getting change, I put
a casual question: How do you ex-
pect to get your money from that SOL
der down thereT My little friend
looked disguised. 4 gave it to him =
he instantly retorted. Then he turned
to gaze again on the fascinating scene
below, and added very softly: He's

an undertaking to pay the plaintiffs,
who were then defendants, such
costs, damages and reasonable coun-

plaintiffs should incur in the action
or should sustain by reason of the

FLOUR N||LLERS ARE. ID RETURN EXCESS PROFITS IN BUSINESS
Federal Trade Commission Report Was Anticipated by Food Administration
 Order of June IT

Washington, July 1.-FTour millers who made excess profits during the last fiscal year, as charged by the federal trade commission in it's report Saturday to the Senate, must return the amount of such profits to the government in the form of milled flour, under regulations made public today by Food Administra- tor Hoover.
 7 The federal trade commission charged that the millers had made a profit of 45 cents a barrel on flour, despite the food administrators regulations limit ing the differential to 25 cents. It de- velops that the commissions report was anticipated, as the administrators reg ulations were sent out last June IT. Millers whose profits at the close of the fiscal year. June 30. are in excess of the maximum permitted, are requested to credit the amount of the excess to the food administration to be iquidated by flour to be sold to the army, navy, ma- rine corps and the food administration $ grain corporation in New York at $1 a barrel
 The millers' books will be balanced as of June 30 and again as of July 1 to show the amount of the excess profit.

SQUARE DEAL FOR SOLDIERS

When the crippled soldier returns from the front, the government will provide for him, i'll addition to medical care special training for seff-support.
 But whether this will really put him back on his feet depends on what ths public does ohelp or hinder.
 In the past the attitude of the public has been a greater handicap to the crip- pie than his physical disability People often, they have persuaded him to be- come so
 For the disabled soldier there has been 'hero-worship;" for the civilian cripple there has been a futile kind of sympa- thy. Both do the cripple more harm than good
 All the cripple needs is. the kind of job he is fitted for, and perhaps a little training in preparation for it. There are hundreds of seriously crippled men now holding down jobs of importance. Other criprles can do likewise, if given the chance.
 likeness is the calamity too hard to be borne. Your service to the crippled man, therefore, is to find him a good, busy job and encourage him to tackle it.
 Demand of the cripple that he get back to the work of the world and you will find him only too ready to do so.
 For the cripple who is occupied is, in truth, no longer handicapped.
 Can the crippled soldier-or the indus trial cripple as well--count on you as q true and sensible friend?
 Booklets describing what is being done in the reha bilitation of disabled men may be secured by applying to the Red Cross Institute for Crippled and Disabled Men, 3l1 Fourth avenue, New York city.

OUR BOYS IN SLAUGHTER

AS this is written, our American boys are nlarcing shoulder to shoulder with the English and French soldiers and the announcement is expected daily that more than 100000 of them have been thrust into the human slaughter that is gong on in northern France When that day comes, we must be prepared to race a long casualty list. It is then that we will long to be with them and care for them.
 While that is not possible, fortunately there is an institution whose sole pur- pose is to alleviate and prevent suffer- ing. The American Red Cross is on the Jop everywhere Wherever our soldiers go the Red Cross is with them to min- lster to their needs. whether they are sick, wounded or well.
 At the front, when a soldier comes from the trenches, tired and dirty, off for furlough. he finds a Red Cross can- teen. There he sees American women in the Red Cross uniform standing back of a counter pouring coffee, ladling soup, and passing out sandwiches as fast as they can work. Here in America the Red Cross IS helping the government in it's problem of feeding the soldiers. When troops are moved acros the country there are bound to be delays of supplies, late trains and lack of good food. The Red Cross canteen workers take care of such situations with their movable kitchens. distributing sandwiches, soup, coffee and cake.

gary to sacrifice themselves In the
west. The enemy on the western
front is seriously concerned with
German recruitment alone.
Let us see how delay effects this.
He lost in his great offensive some
thing not less than 100000 men for
the moment. It may have been
more, it may even have been 100000,
but it is safer to put it at round
half million. New, we have after
four years experience in modern
war the elements for precise cal
culation which tell us what his
returns-that is, his men released
from hospital-will be in any given
length of time. After delay Of about
four months some sixty per cent of
the hospital cases will be available
and at least fifty per cent, probably
rather more, will be available for
the same use and will be able to
suffer- the same strain as before
they entered the hospital. BY late
summer, therefore, say in August,
the German recruitment from this
source would amount in theory to
100000 men, and in practice to at
least a quarter OF million. That
is the first source Of recruitment
supplied by the delay, but since the
enemy has not delayed to anything
like so late a date, we have to esti-
mate what the numbers available
from this source will be to him at
various dates from May 1 onward as
the men are released from hospi-
tai. i

But the work behind the lines has to
be done. That is the spirit Of the
army, except on occasions when the
men have to blow off steam.
Bidding the lucky ones goodbye,
expressed a hope that they would
be allowed to carry revolvers when
next they went near a fighting line.
They said that they were going to
carry side arms, but one man said:
What's the matter with a good
sharp pick when you meet up with
Heinie? He knows what a gun will
do to him and he Is game. But a
Yankee guy with pick has got him
backed off the map. jim here killed
two and chased two more with moth
ing in his hands but a shovel. I had
a pick and I was better off than
him"
Which was his modest way of tell
ing that he and his pick had &C
counted for three German soldiers
armed with rifles and bayonets.
Thus had his grandfather fought
wolves in some western forest, or
killed rattlers in prairie grass. Pho
neers! You can't beat them.

new pioneers, in less than one years
