IN this connection consider it opport1,ne To 50

officers that there be further excuse for msrep
resentaton. -
AS an American institution, founded by Americans
more IMAM bO years ago. and continuously owned and
operated by Americans, Anheuser- Busch has unmis-

all commercial contracts of the Busch-Suzer RIOS
Diesel Engine Co.. of which he is president and since
that time the entire facilities of this S35OOOOO pant
nave been exclusively devoted to the manufacture of
engines for the submarines of the United States NAVY
The engines manufactured by this plant are conceded
to be the finest and most perfect made anywhere in the
world

count OF his mother, Mrs. Adolphus Busch.
The truth is that these bonds were purchased 1s
months before the United States declared war on Ger
many, and at time when there was no thought that this
country would become involved in the war
The German bonds were sold by the principal banks

and widely advertised in newspapers and sold with HE
full knowledge of the Government. Many fnancialin-
sttutons and thousands Of loyal citizens still own these
bonds. .
The bonds were sold by the same institutions that
sofa French English, Italian and other war bonds They
were sold at 81 cents the dollar, and recommended
Dy hnanclers as good investments, paying return f
nearly per cent.
Some professional agitators have undertaken Sfn
make appear that Mr. Busch bought the German bonds
20 ala Germany IN making war on the United States
When these bonds sold it was publicly anno1lnaa
that the funds to be used to establish
credits for Germany in this countrycrets such al 1
allied countries enjoyed through the sale of their bonds
The fact that this transaction was in Octoher 7a15

BRITISH SCOUTS WAR WORK

Harry Lauder, the famous Scotch comedian, on his recent appearance in Omaha, Neb., said of the work of the scouts In England:
 There are at present 240,000 boy scouts engaged in work in England that hitherto had been performed by men. Their work Is such that we'll trained boy can accomplish as well as a Vell-trained man. Carrying mes sages across the country, helping wounded soldiers after their return from the battle front and thousand other things keep the lads busy all the time. They are an important factor in Englands destiny. The British boy scout Is doing q great work today In the service of his country.
 "The man, the soldier, is the bull dog as 1t were, and the boy scout Is the ferret There are 10000 of these boys actively guarding Britain. With their keen little eyes and their quest for romance and excitement they are playing great part in guarding our sea-girt shore.
 ITO be q boy scout Is to be a discip- lined good boy. Good boys make good men, good men make good citizens, and a good citizen is always respected, Every boy as well as every man must do his best today for his country"

SCOUTS AIDING THE NAVY.

Immediately following the declara- ton of war steps were taken to effec- lively organize, along lines similar to the coast guard work of the Boy Scouts of England, older boys special ly selected in order that there might be available a resource for use by the navy department, should the occasion warrant.
 Special organizations were perfect ed covering a large part of the Allan tic coast line, and in each case the boy enrolling secured special permission of his parents. All of their work was done privately.
 The boys agreed to hold themselves in readiness for any emergency call. They also undertook to make a careful survey of the actual conditions in a definitely prescribed territory so that there might be available information as to the full resources of the com munity in case of disaster, including a list of all houses suitable for hospital purposes, names of all doctors, Intor- nation about all automobiles, motor boats. etc, which might be of service.

OLD CANNON BALL IS INCLUDED IN
 EMPIRES MUSEUM

What do you call this," asked Jack Lund this morning, exhibiting an almost round rock giving evil dence that it has been rounded by the hand of man.
 After an examination by the staff members the verdict was that 1t was an old Russian cannon ball. It was dug up from Main Street near the Governors office where work men gre eXcayating for sewer re- pairs.
 It is known that the Russians in early days used rock for cannon ball againt the Natives, and the specimen in question has all the ap- pearance of being one. Some time ago MT. Lund brought to the Elm pire office an old metal steel hel- met dug up in the Lund yard near the St. George House, and the rock now joins the helmet for company for what the boys term "The Elm pire Museum.

GEN. STRONG LIKES SCOUTS.

In letter written by Maj. Gen. F. S. Strong, commander of the Sunshine, |" or Fortieth division, at Camp Kearny, Cal, to President Frank von TeSmar of the Coronado boy scouts, he says:
 "A previous engagement makes 1t impossible for me to be with you. This Is regretted particularly, because I have always had great interest in the boy scout movement. have had OCca. sion to observe them in many parts of the country, and have noted their effi- ciency wherever they were called on for service.
 "In Honolulu they were invaluable In handling many details of the carnl- val and Were highly praised by the gov ernOr and officers of the association.
 "The boy scouts as an association stand for everything that is honorable and patriotic, and they deserve com mendatiou of all for the work they are doing"

WHAT FOREIGN SCOUTS DO.

We must produce food us never be- fore to keep America for Americans. Secretary Houston urges the boy scouts to double their production of food in 1918. It can be done. The scouts of every country In the world have made good.
 Belgian boys carried dispatches through the very enemy's lines when the most skillfuHy trained soldier cou- rlers failed. Belgian scouts gave up their lives rather than betray the se- crets of their country.
 French and English scouts have many times secured information abso- lutely necessary for the safety of their countries armies.
 Certain 1t Is that American boys would live up to the records made by these European scouts, even to the giv- ing up of their lives If their country needed these supreme sacrifices. g.
