BOB WALKER BOOSTS
WAR WORK CAMPAIGN
Richmond Boy In France Says Life
There Would Be Cheerless With
out It-Help A Good Cause.

Sergeant Robt. Walker, who is now
stationed at Tours, France, recently
wrote his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jas.
Walker: Life would be very cheer
less in France without the Y. M. C.
A. and the Salvation Army, for these
organizations follow the open door
policy and the soldier always finds
welcome, comfort and cheer"
Many other Richmond boys are con-
stantly writing home on Y. M. C. A.
paper telling the joys of hut life. 1t
is easy to understand why General
Pershing is asking for thousand
more huts.
In Great Britain there are $500
centers of works in home camps.
France 1000. These huts are in Sa-
onica, MesOpotamia, Egypt, and Pal
estlne. Jerusalem had not been cap
cured more than five hours before a
hut was established. The British and
french authorities want the Y. M. c.
A. because they believe the Y. has
kept up the spirits of the men and
reserved the morale of the army.
Was there ever a truer saying than
morale and Foch will beat the
Boche ?" A sober soldier, a clean
soldier, makes the best fighting man.
The Y. is fighting the battles Of the
lay before; it is smashing at the
stronghold Of booze, immortality and
dependency. General Pershing said:
"Give me nine men and the Y. M. C.
A. and we will have a more efficient
force than as though we had ten
without it"
In the big camps and cantonments
he soldier will find houses Of all five
of the camp agencies-the Y. M. C.
A., K. of c., Y. W. c. A., Jewish We'll
fare Board and Salvation Army-and
all full at ever hour Of the day and
evening. In the smaller camps and
naval stations, the organizations have
working agreements which prevent
duplication. In such a camp there
will frequently be only one hut, its
doors open to all the boys alike.
On September the first, 1918, the
Knights Of Columbus had three hun
dred workers in France. 450 addi-
tional secretaries had been passed by
the United Statea Government and
were being sent overseas as rapidly
as shipping space could be obtained.
Right up along the front the hut
is the only shelter the boys have,
while they are out Of the trenches
resting for a few days. Gypsy Smith
said: a preached the gospel behind
the Lewis guns in the trench-and
| didn't put my head down when the
bullets were flying, either for that
wouldn't have done, because there is
no use preaching to boys about per-
feet love that casts out fear, and then
fopl No, you've got TO take your
own physic. And never for a moment
was | afraid"
The welfare agencies are sending
the best preachers, the most noted
lecturers, and the most attractive mo-
ton picture films in America to our
boys oyer there; BIT tssefe i,' -stSt
person in America who thinks the best
is too good for our boys.
You will have an opportunity Of
showing your boys what what you
think Of them during the United War
Work campaign November 11-18th.
Be proud of what you have done,
after the war is won.

SCHTMMEL rs BACK
FREE FROM SUSPICION

The cloud of suspicion which how
ere1 over Fred Schimmel, the Kenoshan,
who was recently taken under surveil-
lance by the federal authorities, entirely
cleared away here today when Schim-
mel returned from Milwaukee this NOR
ming exhibiting his honorable discharge
from the United States army and along
with it letter from his captain com
mending him for his excellent service
u~der the American flag All rumors
concerning the loyalty of Schimmel,
which originated in the fact that he
had once been cadet on a German
battleship, were dispelled by the record
which Schimmel had established for
himself as Supply Sergeant of his com
pany.
At Milwaukee Schimme1 found him
self mostly in trouble over the fact that
he had in his trunk large supply of
army clothing which it was thought he
had held without proper payment but
word from his company showed that he
was entitled to every piece Of it and
he was released by the federal officials
on Saturday.
Correspondence with Schimme1's cap
tain showed that the Kenosha man, who
admits to his sorrow that he is an
alien enemy, had sought his honorable
discharge from the army only when it
was found that lack of second papers
would make it impossible for him to
fight for the flag of his adopted coun-
try over in France. Schimme1 declared
this morning that if pending legislation
should change his status so that he
might again enter the service, he would
Immediately re-enlist. Schimmel holds
q responsible position at the Nash Mo
tors Company, where he returned to en-
ployment this morning.

FAITHFUL DOG
SAVES HALE HOME
Family of Myron II. Hale in Pleasant
Prairie Awake this Morning to
Find Home in Flames.

Tt was cackling Of the geese that
saved Rome and it was the barking of
a faithful dog that saved the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Myron H. Hale just out
of Kenosna in the town of Pleasant
Prairie from being destroyed by fire
this morning. Just after five clock
this morning Mr.. and Mrs. Hale were
awakened by the dog jumping up on
the bed. Hale rubbed his eyes and
told the dog to go back and ellie
down" but the dog was insistent and
as his master rubbed his eyes he no.
ticed that there was smoke in them.
He jumped out Of bed and followed
the dog to the back portion of the
house and found that The kitchen was
a mass of flames. There was hur-
ried call for volunteer fremen from
the Hale family and in a short time
the flames were under control. It is
thought that the fire started in a
wastebasket in the kitchen of the
house and when the blaze was dis
covered it had burned a big hole in
the floor of this room and was spread
ing rapidly to other parts of the
house. The loss is estimated at 5000.
It is covered by insurance.
Some dog" said Mr.. Hale in dis
cussing the fire, "Believe me if that
dog hadn t had real intelligence there
would have been a lot of work for the
coroner. He gets an extra cut Of por-
