NOTHING SAFE FROM THEM
Gen. Hancock Evidently Had High
Opinion of the Foraaina Abilities
Of the Nineteenth Maine.

"There Is some doubt as to what
part the Nineteenth Maine played In
the war" remarked a veteran Of that
regiment. "The fact Is, the Nineteenth
ate up the Southern C~onfederacy. They
stole pigs, robbed hen roosts, cleaned
out orchards and cellars and foraged
the country so thoroughly that the
enemy had nothing left to feed on, and
so lay down and died"
Then AL Wells of the same regiment
took up the thread of the story:
"We were sweeping along one day,
dining on the fat Of the land, as usual.
Another troop was ahead, and between
them and us rode General Hancock. AS
the general was passing one planta-
ton. the aged proprietor came out and
stopped the generals party.
General" said he, II want some
sort Of safeguard. Those troops that
have just gone by stole my pigs, lifted
my hen roosts and emptied my cellar"
SIN sorry" said Hancock.
"Yes," replied the old man, "they
astole everything but my hope of Inn
mortality. Thank God none of them
car steal that"
Don't be too sure about that" re-
rtor.ed the general "The Nineteenth
Maine Is coming next"

TRIBUTE TO PHIL KEARNY
Connie De Paris Knew aud Loved ga.
nous Soldier Who Gave His Life
for His Country.

1t vas after the review that I made
the personal acquaintance Of the Off
GERS with whom 1 was to have the good
fortune to fight for a cause which was
already dear to me. All made me cor
daily welcome, but 1t was with Kearny
that / found myself most at home. He
1t was who could speak to me of the
French army In Algeria In 1910 and of
the memories left by my family in that
country. He did so In terms which
deeply touched the heart Of the exile,
the son Of the Due d'Orleans. Kearny
had participated in IN of those cam
paigns on African ground which
brought out strongly the merits of the
French soldier. He had also associated
himself with the triumphs of France
in the Italian campaign of 1859.
His abrupt speech and imperious
manner denoted a proud disposition.
and a character incapable of ~flattery
or of discrimination. But though at first
his manner was not always fitted to
attract, one soon learned to appreciate
the noble qualities of his heart. the
firmness of his will. the accuracy of
his judgment, the tr~uthfulness and
grandeur Of his soul.
IL he did not spare his soldiers at
the decisive moment. he spared himself
still less, and by his example obtained
from his followers truly heroic efforts.

%~ HERE are several passes of
some celebrity connecting the
east and west sides of Glacier
National park across the Con-

of them command views on both sides

The most celebrated of the passes
In actual use is Gunsight pass. From
the east IL Is reached directly from
st. Mary lake, and, by way Of Piegan
pass, from Lake McDermott. From
the west 1t is reached from Lake Nc

IN L|BERTy'S NAME
Memorial Day Finds the Nation
Battling for Freedom of the
Whole World.
"A Ar GMORIAL DAY was born of a
MI war fought that this nation nm

WI war fought that this nation. an.
der God, should have a new
birth of freedom. and that government
of the people, for the people and by
the people shall not perish from the
earth"
A half a century and more has
passed since that immortal u~tterance,
o the nation is again in arms, to
fight that "the world may be made
safe for democracy"
Then, the young republic, struggling
upward toward it's vision of freedom,
learned through the bitter travail of
Civil war that the nation could not
exist half slave and half free. The
vision has broadened with the wild
ening years. Then IL was for the free
dom of a race the nation fought. Now
the sword is drawn for the imperiled
liberty Of the world.
The natal day Of our independence
we have been wont to celebrate with
loud acclaim and Wanting pride. Me
mortal day EVER has been u time for
solemn contemplation. Another Me-
mortal day Is at hand. and as America
lays Its flowers on the graves of Its
soldier dead, it hears again that re-
vered voice from the slopes of Get
tysburg bidding us to be not unmind-
full that ut is rather for US to be here
dedicated to the great task remaining
before us, that from these honored
dead we take increased devotion to
that cause for which they gave the
last full measure Of devotion that we
here highly resolve that these dead
shall not have died In vain"
A beautiful, a poetic symbolism
Memorial day had come to be to us:
The people who walk with slow steps
in the quiet cemeteries, the children
In their white dresses who with loving
hands place wreaths 'alike for the
friend and the foe," the venerable men
who are the links that bind us to an
age long gone, and, as we believed. for
ever gone, when nation warred with
nation and blood lust grew in hearts
that had thrilled at the sight of the
same nag.
And now with what a new and sud-
den significance has Memorial day been
vested. With what different thought
will they go lovingly laden with f1ow-
ers." How much more reverently
than in those conventional days that
already seem so far away will the lit
tie flags be planted on each patriot
mound. And who Is there, when taps,
clear and soft as a benediction, is
sounded for those who dream Of bat
tlefields no more" will not remember

row from that same silvery bugle will
leap the reveille for another genera
ton Of freedoms soldiers?
If solemn memories Of the past and
earnest thought for the future bring
that new birth of freedom, who shall
say that those have died in vain for
whom flowers will be spread in far
Memorial days to come?

Should Cease Our GfumbIing

f4 t.
 There should be damper put on the grumbling disposition. Things cam not run smoothly In these narrowing days. Every one thinks that he could manage things to perfection, but if he had to confront the new set of condi- hons he would likely change his mind, asserts the Ohio State Journal Here :s an institution that is ordered to cut of light. heat and service, and yet we wonder because we are disconnected. TAere are new conditions confronting us whichever way we turn, and they all grow out Of this horrid old war. They cannot be helped, though sometimes we think the situation might be ina- proved, but we should not think the Improvement should come all at once.
 When we get used to our incon- oeniences they will seem easier, partly because they will be made lighter and partly because we will become more philosophical. But there is one sugges- tion which Is that no one should permit the war conditions to stand in the way of 8 wise and thoughtful management of whatever interest he may control. The war adds duties to authority as well as to the people who bear the bur. dens.

 Govern m ent ex- perts have esti-

. mated that over 100000 extra acres of potatoes were planted last year. The United States Food Administration is endeavOr- ing to push the nations big po- tato stocks into channels of trade and has placed potatoes on the list of substitutes that may be bought along with wheat four.
 Potato soup has become a war dish Here is recipe that has been tested by United States Food Administration experts. In- gradients needed are three pota- toes, one quart of milk. two slices onion, three tablespoons butter substitute, two table spoons flour, one and one-half tablespoons salt, one-quarter teaspoon celery salt, one-eighth teaspoon pepper. few grains cay enne and one teaspoon chopped parsley.
 Cook potatoes in boiled salted water. When soft run through a strainer. Scala milk with on- ion, remove onion and add milk slowly to potatoes. Melt the fat, add dry ingredients, stir until well mixed, then stir into boiling soup. Cook one minute, strain and sprinkle with barley.
