Writing to the Men in France.

If you want your letter to reach your
soldier friend in France, be sure to sup
plement the name with the phrase,
american Expeditionary Force" and
do not merely write "A. E. f." at the
bottom of the envelop. This will insure
its reaching the addressce. Otherwise it
may 60 to some Australian soldier, who
also belongs to an "a. E. F." The pre-
caution is easily observed. We are
prone to take it for granted that there
is only one "a. E. F." in France, but
The Australians were there long before
we reached the scene of the fighting.
Mark your letters plainly, with the full
title of the American force, and the
mail will eventually be delivered. Do
not expect your soldier to get his let
tiers as quickly as if he were in New
York or even in California. There are
several hundred thousand "Sammiesy in
France, and millions of letters are 60
ing out to them weekly. They are be-
ing shifted about from one sector to
another, from camp to camp and from
billet to billet, and it takes much man.
agement to keep the mails straight. Do
not grumble and complain of the slack
ness of the postal system if your sol.
der does not get his letters separately
1t may be necessary to make deliveries
in bundles. Just write and keep writing
and trust to the service. Remember, a
war is in progress, the biggest war in
the history Of the world, and it is re-
markable that letters get to the men at
the front at all. But it is worth while
writing, for every letter that reaches
your soldier makes him better soldier
and heartens him for the fight that must
be waged to make our own country safe
from the devastating Hun.

Headed for the Star.

Washington is now definitely and de-
eisively over the top in the third liberty
loan. Today's reports show a total of
local subscriptions Of 1865, $50, or
ts74, $50 more than the quota. These
subscriptions come from $3.50 indiyid-
uals.
Now for the blue star on the honor
flag! The flag itself will be formally
dedicated tomorrow afternoon. By then
there should be total of $4,000, 900 on
the books. That will leave a little more
than s1oy00O0oo to be secured in the last
two and a half days to win the star.
Considering the response in the closing
days Of the second loan that is not i'm
possible of accomplishment.

though evidently well considered BY Gov.
Gardner. This is the second Office be-
slowed ON him by the governor. The
first was the elections comnlissionership
which he vacatcs to accept the senator
ship.
The withdrawal of Gov. Francis from
Russia AZ this time would have been
mistake. He is an indispensable man
at a highly important post. The work
he now faces is more difficult than any
he has performed, difficult as that was.
MIR. Clark's continuation in the speak
ership was equally imperative. The work
of the House is growing in volume and
completely. and Mr.. Clark, though with
ont the full power that should, and once
did. attach to his Office. bears n very
valuable hand in it. His Judgment is
good, and he is often consulted.
Judge Graves, unknown until now to
the country at large. could not have
reached his place on the bench without
demonstrating full capacity for 1t. 1t
is y high place: and rs ho sought it the
assumption is that he has consulted his
personal comfort as we'll as the public
interests in retaining it.
Mr.. Whitley profits from the appoint,
ment. 1t brings him into national no
tice, and gives him opportunity. if only
for d brief period, to view at close
range the national wheels go round. He
will enjoy his stay iii Washington. and
after it IS ended will enIov al home the
distinction the senatorship will have
conferred on him.

It is an odd and ancient rule
With many a mournful memory

The world accounts man q fool
Who disagrees with usual thought.

Where Folly all unchallenged dwells,

We'd make him wear the cap and bells.
