Corporate Words Must Have Con.
talhed Full Information Even to
the Most Unlntelligent.

This weeks story from the front:
A certain company sergeant major
was not popular with his men. They
accused him of having cold feet.
One day the company went into a
rest camp 20 miles behind the firing
line, where 1t was an impossibility any
shells could reach them. The ground,
however. was very waterlogged. and a
fatigue party was detailed to dig n
drainage trench.
Presently sergeant happened to
pass that way.
"What are you digging there?" he
shouted to the corporal in charge of
the job.
A grimy face, from which the sweat
was pouring, popped up from the
trench. 1t belonged to one of the ser
geant majors most persistent and re-
lentless adversaries.
"Diggin' communication trench
from the sergeants' mess to the SER
geant majors dugout," he shouted, in n
voice well within hearing of the mess
tent, at the entrance to which the N.

Heroism That Is Real.

For herOism when the engine room
Of his ship was filled with live steam.
Niels Anderson, chief machinist's mate,
United States navy, has been given
official commendation. The act oc-
Cured when the exhaust lines of the
steering engine were carried away by
the breaking Of the tiller, causing the
engine room to fill with steam. With
out hesitation Anderson went down a
ladder to the compartment, but was
driven back. Again he made two more
attempts. The third was successful,
and, cropping his way through the
cloud Of steam, he cut it Off. Ander-
son enlisted in the navy at Norfolk.

POSTAL SYSTEM IN DISARRAY
German Government at Its Wits End
to Stop Thievery From the
Goods In Transit.

Extraordinary steps haze been taken
by the German government to call u
halt to the thieves within the postal
system. 1t was claimed that out of
ten parcels sent three would disap-
pear. Packages to soldiers at the
front containing food, delicacies and
clothing would disappear more fire.
Quently than any other shipments. All
appeals to the patriotic spirit of the
thieves were Of no avail. The per-
centage of thefts increased steadily.
Finally the government was compelled
to take drastic and systematic meas
ures. The military branch was called
In and stations of control manned by
non-commissioned officers and soldiers
were planted ut principal railroad
points in the empire. The employ
ment of mere youths Is blamed for
the deterioration Of the postal service.
Practically all the employees Of mill
tary nge had to join the army and
their places were filled by boys and
girls. Besides, the scarcity of food
tempts many to steal.

Of stars. The constellation Of Orion
is composed mainly Of them, as well
as parts Of Taurus, the Pleiades, and
parts of Perseus. In color, they are
much like the Sirius type, blush white.
and brilliant, but a spectroscope at
once detects the difference between
them. Stars like Sirius and Vega
are surrounded by hydrogen gas. but
the Orion stars have no hydrogen, and
are made Of heiium and nebula. They
often have great volumes Of fine nehu-
la dust about them, showing that they
are still in the process Of condenslng
out Of the primitive star matter.
