The president told the Huns that
there could be no peace negotiations
while they occupied the territory of

armies of Marshal Foch. The fight
they are putting up appears to be
merely designed to prevent showing.

A little more than fortnight ago
a nation wide campaign to obtain car
bon materials was instituted under the
joint auspices of the food administra-
ton, the national war savings commit
tee, the department of agriculture and
the Red Cross. Posters calling on
citizens to save fruit stones and nut
shells have been distributed every
where. The Boy Scouts and other
juvenile organizations have been en-
listed to make canvasSes of hotels,
restaurants and homes. The depart
ment has sent word to its county
agents to carry on the campaign
among the farmers. Nut-gathering
clubs are being formed everywhere. In
some cities repositories OF stones and
shells have been placed in conspicuous
places.
Already the campaign has been pro-
ductive. There is little likelihood that
any but very small part of this year
nut crop will be wasted. Just how
rlany gas masks will be insured for
american soldiers as result OF the
campaign cannot be foretold. But it
is safe to say that several divisions
will be provided with properly car
bombed protection.

HERE'S NEW
INSTANCE OF
LOYALTY

An interesting story of the
sacrifice made by one of the
Hungarians at Calumet, East
Chicago, in the recent Red
Cross drive. has just come to
light.
On the last day of the cam
paign, Lazlo Shuller, 4o18 Ken
nedy avenue, walked into the
office Of J. K. Reppa. campaign
worker. and laid down $50, ask
ing for his paper" Mr.. Reppa
thought that the man wanted to
make a deposit of that amount
but soon discovered that he was
in error. He then felt sure that
the applicant wanted to buy a
fifty dollar liberty bond. But
again he was wrong. Finally
Mr.. Reppa became convinced
that Shuller knew what he was
talking about and that he really
wanted to make a $50 contribu-
tion to the Red Cross fund.
The man has a family but
they are in Europe. He is en-
ployed at the HARRISON Walker
Refractories Co. plant and is
getting $3.50 per day.
How many Americans. we
wonder, made as large contribu-
tons in proportion to their in
comes.
