WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, Aug. 2. (By MaiL)-The
| principal road into Ypres-frOm this
side-leads through Poperinghe. APP
preaching Poperin5le, likewise from
this side, you see one of the rarest
sights in all Belgium; new houses.
People never before lived in new
houses in Belgium; houses always
we're old they were like the trees and
the hills and the rest of the scenery
But now on the forks of the road you
| find little new houses one after an
other,
If it were not that nothing can
make you forget the war, once you
pass the Belgian border you could
easily imagine yourself in the out
skirts of new factory or mining
town in America. These little houses
are the most pitifui nondescripts,
They are built OF boxes and OF dis
carded timbers of one kind and an
other, forming typical Shantytown
of the American sort, save that many
have roofs of tile and the others have
matched coverings.
In nearly every window is display
ed something for sale. green grocer
les. post cards. odds and ends that sol.
diers buy, and you think at first that
this temporary market is responsible
for the new one-street town strung
along the road But that, too, is a
mistake. Poperinghe explains the
Belgian shantytowh. Poperinghc--
known all over the British front as
"Pop"-is deserted, and these houses
were built along the road by refugees
who were unwilling to go any further
than they had to.

shevik revolution and that every ac1
by them In the name of the common
people Of Russia has been performed
at the Command OF Germany and with
the ultimate purpose OF enslaving the
Russian peasants and turning aver
their land to Germany. Y
It will not be the lack OF sufficient
proof of just cause that. will prevent
the United States and the entente
nations from declaring war on the
Bolshevik government. but rather a
wiser policy which viii recognize the
innocence Of the masses in Russia.
Documents made public today in
the series show that German agents
were dispatched through Russia with
orders to receive passports from the
Bolsheyfk government to America,
England and France with papers
from the German staff, in order to
follow up the counterrevolutionary
work of Countries aiiied to u.s."
Other documents directed that an
inventory of all supplies received in
Russia from America and England
be furnished German officers and that
a statement be given of the forces
guarding these supplies. Still other
documents give proof of a scheme to
send ships TO be loaded with "the
supplies indicated" by German agents
and sent as directed to ports Of the
United States, Japan, and British
Colonies in Eastern Asia" Another
document planned the shipment of
three submarines across Russia to the
Pacific. At the conclusion Of the war
these submarines were to remain at
the disposal of the Russian, govern
,ment. In another document there is
q 1report from the Bolshevik officials
to Germany of the Iersons who had
been stationed as spies on the embas.
sizes of the various allied governments.
All of these revelations make it
clear that Trotsky's assurance that
the peasants of Russia must not re-
coil from an alliance with imperial
lists for defense and offense is rather
belated, because the alliance has al
ready been made, If it may be called
an alliance. tt is more correctly a
"sell out" -.
The depths of German perfidy seem
never to be reached. When the war
is won other revelations will be made
that will so blacken the name Ger.

crimes that are known to. have been
committed by the Huns will become

CALLS 70 DUTY.

There was lull during the clos.
ing weeks of summer in war cause
activities, but soon every organiza-
ton that deals with civilian activities
in the war will be calling for all the
time and support that any individual
can give. American soldiers are now
in the front trenches with a big share
of the fighting that will defeat the
Germans. They are being given the
test that will prove their worth. 1t
would be unfair to them IT, the folks
at home fail to do everything that
they are asked to do.
The Red Cross is now engaged in
the collection Of clothing. for. the
suffering refugees of Belgium. Dur
ing the winter this noble organiza-
ton will have its annual membership
campaign, when it is expected. that
every adult citizen will be enrolled. J.
The new registration has placed a.
0C0,00O more men and boys in position
to be called to military service. This
In itself will demand much courage
and sacrifice on the part of the women
and the men who were not required
to register. /.
In November there will be drive
to raise $170,OO0,OOO for the seven al
lied war camp organizations. The PEG.
pie are going to be asked to give

The deals was closed Tuesday after

Mr. Dining stated to Herlad re-

looking for just such a place as the
Matthews farm. 1.-THE scenery is the

farm" he said. tits natural bound

creek, north by Duck river, south by
Will;amsport pike and west by Mrs.
George Anne Knox, give it pictures
queness that cannot be equalled.i
Mr.. Dining said that it was his in
tention to improve the farm to the
very highest state of perfection and
that he bought it with view of hold
ing on to it. 1T is just the thing for
my boys. After school hours they
can run out to the fam and on Satur-
days they can spend the day there,
learning farm life in its entirety"
Mr.. Dining has already secured
The services of one of the best farmers
in Maury county, Will Broows. to take
charge Of the farm and large force
of hands will be put to work cleaning
the farm up and beautifying the
premises.
The farm has a splendid residence

PUBLIC HEALTH.

Maury county has experienced. the
benefits of public health work as
much as any other county in the
state and should never pemit the pro-
gram that has been started to be
abandoned. Under the efficient sup
ervision of DIR. e. l.. Bishop several
communities have been made practi-
cally immune from typhoid and other
diseases that are contracted through
the intestines. Hundreds Of persons
have taken the anti-typhoid serum,
which has reduced the typhoid per
centage materially. He has conduct
ed school clinics in the communities
where he was worked which have led
to the correction of many minor de-
fects OF the eyes, ears and throat and
made it possible for the children to
develop more rapidly.
II Is fortunate for Maury county
that although DR.. Bishop has been
promoted to the position of state di-
rector of rural sanitation he will con-
tinue to personally direct the public
health work here, since 1t will be i'm
possible before the warts won to sec
ure a competent physician to take
charge of the work In this county
alone. A~.
DR.. Bishop has very properly taken
the position that public health pro-
grams should not be abandoned dur
ing the war, for, it is very important
in maintaining the morale of the civil
lian population that the health Of the
people be kept at the highest possible
point. 1t would not be very comfort
ing to the soldiers at the front to learn
that their mothers a.ld wives and lit
tie sisters and brothers at home are
suffering from epidemics. 1t is pos
sible to prevent epidemics among the
civilian populations.
: Communities IN Marry county that
have in the past been affected by
epidemics of--typhoid and colitis have,
since" undergoing the improvements
fostered by the. rural heai,n depart
ment, been made practically free of
such diseases, while those communi
ties that have not enjoyed the bene-
fits of this work have suffered as U.S.
ual during the summer.
1t will be a mark OF the progressive
ness of Maury county il the public
health work is continued. The cost
to the county has been small in com
parison with the benefits gained.
Appropriations have been made only
to cover the cost of labor, materials
being furnished by the state and the
salary of the director paid by the
state The same work by the county
without the cooperation of the state
would have cost three or four times
as much.

The state of Sac Paulo, Brazil, it
was learned yesterday, has obtained a
renewal for two years of f2,205,0oO of
5 per cent two-year treasury notes
which recently fell due in London
These notes. which originally amounted

ment of only 80 per cent were avail
able, the remaining 70 per cent was
renewed until January ! last. The
amount which has now been renewed
indicates that further f635,00 has
been paid off.
The notes were secured by tax on
coffee exports from the State Of Sac
