Boys Who Whipped the Grown Prince

Of the volunteer soldiers of eighteen and nineteen years whose valor has changed the as pect of the battle-felds of France Lieut.. Joseph R. Brady, former ly of the Evening World writes: 1 can send the word back that these boy soldiers of America. these beardless youngsters we saw about the recruiting stations when war was declared, have ac- tually and effectually whipped the army of the Crown Prince.
 It was indeed an effective whip ping. From the point nearest Paris it drove back the invaders so sharply, so swiftly and so far that the world of doubters saw at last that our new armies were destroying Germany's hope of victory.
 And these are the eighteen and nineteen year old boys whom many Congressman would keep out of the war while the War De partment wrestles with the vast task of winnowing 100000 sot- diers out of 10,O0O,OOo men of. middle age with the least practis cal upheaval of essential indus try. Berlin and Budapest could ask no policy better adaEted to serve their desperate need. .1

HAS DUNLAP CON NTRACT

Contractor l.. P. Mason, of this
city, gets another important con-
tract with Chattanooga Iron &
Coal Company at Dunlap. Mr..
Mason has been at Dunlap near
ly one year, in which time he has
completed four contracts on rec
ord breaking time. 1t is under
stood indirectly that in April
some differences arose between
the above named company and
Mr.. Mason, which resulted in the
young contractor moving his en-
tire force from the work to Nash
vile, where he did considerable
work for the government. Since
leaving Dunlap it is understood
that the differences between the
two companies have practically
been adjusted and that by grant
ing Mr.. Mason, the nature of
which has not been made public,
the Chattanooga company has
been able to secure his services
on the work again. Bridgeport,
