shows that our troops in France are
tearing German trenches into pieces
virtually obliterating them-and blow
ing scores of Huns into perdition. Our
boys may not equal the French soldiers
in the matter of kowtowing to or sa-
luting their superior officers, but when
it comes to fighting they are veritable
tigers. That their valor is appreciat-

shown by the fact that many of them
have been decorated with the croix de

It is estimated by the touring
bureau of the B. F. Goodrich Rubber
company that $263, O96,61O will be ex-
pended by the government, state and
counties for highway improvement in
1918. This is 80 per cent more than
the expenditures in any previous year.
This country is beginning to realize
the absolute necessity Of better high

Logic of Lloyd George.

Premier Lloyd George. speaking in
London, said there has been criticism
because the cabinet ministers had not
given sufficient prominence to the
idea Of a league Of nations in their
speeches. The Bolshevists have taught
them one lesson that real league of
nations does not come by talking about
it. The critics had forgot something
which was essential-that once war
was begun, you have to fight for it.
They must not be mislead by mis-
taking phrases for facts. He could in
vent phrases about peace which even
a Prussian war lord would hail with
satisfaction.
Nobody had been so eloquent on the
subject Of league of nations, the
premier said, as the German emperor.
His reply to the pope breathed the
spirit Of brotherly love, but in it there
was no word about Belgium.
On the subject of a league Of nations
the German emperor was absolutely
sound; he was prepared to put Ger
many at the head Of it.
All through those protestations on
the part Of the Emperor breathed the
spirit of domination; the dagger was
wrapped up in the sermon on the
mount.
A league Of nations could only be
possible when the entente armies had
won, he said.
Coming down to internal affairs, the
premier said there is no hunger.
There was no privation, but the people
were being deprived Of a good deal
they had been taught to regard as
the essentials of comfortable exist
ence. There was no lack Of abundant
food to sustain the strength Of the
people, and no prospects of such de-
ficiency, but there was a tendency to
grumble at restrictions.
''The people face big things" con-
tinued the premier, 3'but get worried
over small ones. There has been only
one successful controller in the his
tory Of the world-the one who made
five loaves and two small fishes feed a

Extremely close with Lenroot

senatorial primary. There is only one
thing for the republicans of Wisconsin
to do and that is to support Davies, the
loyal democratic candidate, for sena-

their forces they can elect a loyal
United States senator, and Davies, the
successful democrat at the primary

ACT OF HERoIsM COST LIFE
Sailor, Realizing He Faced Almost Ger.
tain Death, Did Not Hesitate
When Duty Called.

A striking example of the quiet
heroism that men at sea in the war
zone are called upon to show in the
discharge of their daily duty is mar
rated by passengers who returned
from Europe on q transatlantic
liner. The big ship encountered very
heavy weather. Great seas were
breaking over the bows-solid walls
of water, each with the power of a
monster pile driver. "Some of the
seas came with such force" says one
passenger, ''that they snapped off an
iron rod as thick as a mans thumb
by the sheer force of impact" In
this situation the lashings of the
bow gun loosened. Realizing that if
the gun came adrift its usefulness
might be destroyed, member of the
crew took a life line and quietly
made his way forward to fix the LASH
ings. "He must have known that he
was taking desperate chance" said
an eyewitness. GAS matter of fact,
the second big sea to come aboard
swept him away, life line and all,
like straw. Although we cruised
back and forth over the spot for
hours, he was never seen again" The
gun was later dashed down by other
Seamen.
