Rev. w. A. Hall, pastor of the
PRESBYTERIAN church, has been selec-
ted by the school board to fill the I'M
expired term as principal and teach
er of the high school grades in the
Central School of Prof. f. Carter,
who resigned last week to enter the
U. S. Navy, as he was published in
these columns. Mr.. Hall was loath
to accept the place, but the board
and his friends OVERRIDE his objec-
tion and insisted that he serve. The
board would have some difficulty in
getting an outsider for the remain
ing part of the term, about four
months, and is to be congratulated
on their selection. as we are sure
! that Mr. Hall will give eminent sat-
isfaction to all. Filling the position
will not interfere with his PASTORAL
work here and in Greene county.

Wish they had let it appear showing
their individual signatures and com

would be permissible under the ceu-

it would make it breathe more of

Those boys oyer there at the front
can depend upon it that the interest
in them back here at home keen and
every thing that we can hear from

Washington. March 30. Washington hears that according 10 pamphlet is sued by August Thyssen, 8 wealthy German business man, that rich Teu- tons were blackmailed by the kaiser from the time immediately preceding the war up to the present time. In 1916 guarantees were asked from 78 German business men, including Thyssen, that they would subscribe 1000, 100000 in the next war loan. Thyssen declined to guarantee his share-$l 0OO, ,OO0-and thereafter lost valuable war contracts. Tn 1912 the Hohenzollerns wanted to get the support of the commercial class. Thyssen was promised 8 free grant of 30 900 acres in Australia and S750, GOO loan from the Deutsche bank at 3 per cent. German business men were also told that India was to be conquered, and the kaiser promised special trading facilities 10 German firms.

London: John Masctield, the English poet. playwright and official historian of Haig's army in France. predicts that England's next parliament will be a labor parliament. It will take unto itself, he says, the intellectual workers as well as the hand workers of Eng land. A good many lords have became democratized. Reconstruction com mittees are now preparing for the re- making of England. Mr. Maseheld ex- presses the belief that Henderson will be the controlling factor in the future, and that England will be saved by the liberal with his intellect and the labor man with his power.

F0CI IS BE CHIEF

Washington, D. C., Mar. 20-For the first time it became officially known that General Foch the celebrated French commander has been appointed to the supreme head of all the forces of the Allies. The first official intimation that was made in this regard came from President Wilson who today sent a message to the first commander of the Allied armies congratulating him upon his new authority.
 General Foch was unanimously se- lected for this work. After a close canvass of the qualities of all leaders the supreme war council decided that he should be given the place. Under him the coordination of the Allied ar mics will be carried out to the very highest extent.
 He will have practically the same control of the military forces of the Allied nations that General von Hin- denberg exercises over the Teutonic armies. His appointment is in line with the program for closer coopera- tion adopted at the Versailles con- ference at the insistence of the Amer ican representatives acting under in- structions from President Wilson.

Did You Notice it?

How many of you have noticed the queer error in one of the posters ad- vertising the Second Liberty Loan? The one in brown and sepia, headed by a portrait of the President, tlanked on either side by the L. s. colors. The colors are in shape a shield, in length q banner, and the stripes are six red and seven white--just the reverse of "Old Glory" Surely strange error to come out of the government printing office, or any other printing office in the United States for that matter.

has received letters from the
front will admit to having at
least one written on the station

of which are given away by the
millions. Anticipating a great
demand, the Y. M. C. A. overseas
has ordered for the use Of the
American troops in the war zone
alone 152,OOO,OO0 sheets and
111,O0O,OOO envelopes for the
five months beginning this No
vember. How the purchasing
department estimated that H.
OOO,O 900 extra sheets would be
needed in addition to the ILL.,
100000 one-sheet letters is not
divulged. This order is exclus-
lively for soldiers overseas, the
men in training camps at home
using millions of sheets and en-
velopes provided by the same or
ganization. It's 1919 budget calls
