The War Is Over AndOur
Boys Are Coming
Home.
Wasn't This Good News and Did
mt 1t Make Ever Heart Happy.

While they were away, in the camp and on the firing
line, we had no time to think Of ourselves. but now that
the war is over, and they a~re..coming home. we will want
to look our best. These boys, who have. been out in the
world and taken part in this great war. will look at things
in a different light. They will not be satisfied with things
as they were when they went away. They will expect
their home people to look different. Lets all spruce no and
make them glad to be home again. Kill the fatted calf,
asst were, and have a good time.
We have have a complete stock of most everything you
will want. Call on us. it will be a pleasure to have you.

lately. sure will be glad when we
get to work and know what we will
have to do all the time. We are at
one of the old camps. All of the
buildings are stone and most all of
them look alike.
Well, how are you and the jitney
getting along by this time? Did you
get it fixed up? Or have you done
anything with it yet? The first car
that l saw was jitney. You don't
see many cars here-most all of them
are one-horse carts.
While we were out on our hike we
saw them threshing wheat. l guess
it was wheat-it looked like it, any
way. The women work as hard as
the men, if not harder. They all
work hree. Their threshing machines
look like an ensilage cutter. 1t is
horsepower except the straw carrier;
it is turned by hand, but it does the
work anyway, so that is the main
thing now.
1t is whole lot cooler here than
it was in Florida. You can wear your
coat most any day here. I'd rather see
it this way than so hot.
We have got pretty good place
to stay where we are now, but am
looking to move from here most any
day to where we can get to work, and
that is what I am looking for now as
l have been lying around so long.
Well, we had fine trip on our way
coming across. We saw most every
thing except submarines, and we did
not see any of them. guess they
didn't want to see us very bad, any
way. | haven't seen anybody from
home but expect that | will later on
when we get settled down for good
little while anyway. l don't know
whether l will get to see Chester or
not. If can get his address l might,
but | don't know whether | would
know him or not. 1t is pretty hard to
find anybody here for they are all
moving most of the time. 1t is hard
to keep track of the boys that come
from Funston. There are lots of Kan
sas boys here. | havn't seen James

NOT MUCH POLITICS THIS YEAR

We are receiving these days, thru
the mails and otherwise, good deal
of political dope. This comes from
individuals and committeeman from
both the leading parties, but we have
to decline to use it. While we may
not be able to give much attention to
politics during the campaign, we want
to make our position clear regarding
the congressional candidates. We
have in the past supported our pres
ent Congressman, and there hasn't
been a minute since he entered upon
his duties that we have regretted that
action. We are for him this time.
He has a record of achievement, for
honesty and earnest effort to be of
service to his constituency. This dis
trict has never had more conscien-
tious, straightforward worker for all
the people. His performances are all
in the open, and we know where to
find him. Does anyone suppose that
it WOULD help conditions at this time
to replace Mr.. Shouse with an untried
man? We don't.-Macksville Enter

SUGAR SUPPLY SHORT
Two Vessels Carrying 24,000,.
600 Pounds Sunk by U-Boats.
Loss Is Not Serious Enough to Cause
Food Administration Worry In
Supplying Allies.

Washington June 11.-Food Admin
istrator Hoover announced that Ger
man submarines operating on this side
of the Atlantic are responsible for the
loss of 24000,000 ounds of sugar.
AS result the supply of sugar for
manufacturers of soft drinks again
will be curtailed.
Practically all OF the sugar was lost
aboard the Carolina and the Vinland
Mr. Hoover added.
The Carolina was bringing almost
her entire cargo Of sugar, while the
Vinland carried nothing else.
Varying smaller amounts were
aboard some of the other vessels.
The loss, while a comparatively
heavy one, is not serious enough to
cause the food administrator great
worry over keeping up the supply oi
the Allies BY further conservation
and cutting down on the manufacture
of luxuries using sugar, particularly
the soda and soft drinks industry, ii
is believed the amount may be made
up without any hardship to the peo
pie generally.

YANKEES BEAT OF FOE
American Soldiers Gain Ground
Along Marne.
Beat OF Enemy In Two Attacks and
Assault on HIli 204 Near
Montdidier.

With American Armies in France,
June 11-While the fourth phase OF
the German offensive was breaking
out between Noyon and Montdidier
the Americans continued to hold on
the Marne front.
In addition to beating off two enemy
attacks on Bouresches five miles west
OF Chateau Thierry and an assault
against Hill 204, they advanced and
occupied the edge of the wood west
of Vanx (two miles west of Chateau
Thierry), which was still occupied by
the Germans. Later they returned to
their own positions from this latter
advance.
The Boches continued to shell Bel.
leau wood five miles west of Chateau
Thierry), but the marines were still
holding that place.
The American lines In Picardy (west
and northwest of Montdidier) were
bombarded in connection with the
German artillery preparation for the
attack between Noyon and Montdidier
The American artillery responded
to the enemy fire with strong count
er bombardment.

CANNOT BRIGHTEN AMERICA
Secretary Daniels Says Ocean High
ways VIII BE Kept Open.

London, June 11.-American naval
forces in European waters are not be-
ing weakened in consequence of the
operations of German submarines on
the American coast, and the ocean
highway for the movement of troops
to Europe will be kept open, Secretary
Daniels says in cablegram published
by the Times. The message follows:
"The activities OF German subma-
rines off the American coast have not
in any way changed the policy OF this
government. The road to France will
be kept open for the transportation
of our troops. and the delivery OF mu-
nitions and food supplies for our
forces and those of our allies. There
is being no weakening Of our naval
forces in European waters as result
OF the new activity necessitated on
our own coast"

Paris Advance Makes Less
Than 3 Miles.
RESERVES ARE MASSED
French Artillery lnfIlcts Terrible Exc
cution on Enemy-~FIanklng Moves
Attempted But Wings Hold
Firmly Against Onslaught.

London, June I1.-Comparatively
slow progress, attended by losses des-
cribed as enormous, is being made
by the Germans in their latest effort
to break the Allied front against the
line from Noyon to the eastern sub
urbs of, Montdidier, coming quickly
after the force of the offensive on the
Aisne had been spent, has encountered
stern resistance and 1t is only over
a comparatively short section of the
line that the enemy has made appreci-
able gains The deepest penetration
reported so far Is approximately 2A
miles.
1t has been believed since the drive
toward Amiens stopped that General
Ferdinand Foch had the greater bulk
of his reserves in or near the area
that is now being attacked. Not only
are these troops within striking dis
tance of the front, but there are ma.
tural obstacles which also initiate
against the entire success OF the Ger
man assault.
High Hills Aid Defense.
The high hills, which now are the
scene of heavy fighting, are outposts
of the positions which are prepared
along the Disc river, which bisetcs
the field upon which the battle will
be fought If the first lines of defense
are overwhelmed.
The present ascault on the line east
OF Montdidier may be considered as Q
complement of the offensive along the
Aisne and when the map is studied Il
will be seen that the "pincer" sys
TEN followed by Mackensen in Rus

FIanking Moves Attempted.

succeeds in gaining extensive ground

Maryland coast.

A brief dispatch to the Navy de-

missing boat either has been picked
up by some passing vessel or will
turn up at ONE point along the coast.
The Pinar Del Rio was a freighter
of 1854 gross tonnage and was built
in South Shields, England, in 1895, be-

bought by an American firm some
time ago and placed under Ameri-

was either engaged in the coastwise
