Ever Thought What
One Sa;!c- Costs Us?

The cost Of the U. 8. Navy per man
per day during the first six months of
the fiscal year 1918 varied from ACC on
the larger types of vessels to SIC on
the smaller types. A $50 Liberty Bond
will keep sailor for 102 days In the
larger vessels and for 90 days ON tas
smaller tynss.

DRAFTEES CAN GO
INTO THE NAVY

Provost Marshal General Crowder
announced orlers to local draft
boards which will permit the volun-
tary induction of draft registrants
into the navy and marine corps and
provide for drafts of men to be as
signed to those services if voluntary
inductions do not suffice to fill the
demands.
Calls for men for the navy will go
out before the end of this month and
marine corps cOntingents will be
called within few weeks.
The order, quoting sections of the
man power law which makes the
term military service include the
navy and marine corps, announces
that separate calls hereafter will be
issued to secure men for all divisions
of the service. State quotas will be
allotted to fill the marine and naval
requirements.
After a call has been issued ma
rine and navy recruiting officers
may ask for the voluntary induction
of men to fill the call. If the total
is not secured by that method, the
boards will order sufficient men
forward to make up the quota. The
men will be modelled and transport
ed in the same manner as are those
of the national army.
One responding either to induction
or call method will be counted upon
the States quota as having been fur
nished for the nations military
needs.

Love has as many moods as the
ocean. It has it's flood-tide, when
the heart is filled to Overlooking
with alteration. Its ebb- tide, when
love is slowly receding from the
heart. Its storms when jealousy and
wrong sweep the soul. Its Gains,
when love rests peaceful in it's har-
Dor. It's froth, when love is only pas
sion. And it has it's depths, when to
bury one self in the deep heart of
another is all that life contains of
the sweetest and the best.

GERMANS HAVE NEW
( IDEA IN TREAcHERV
Hold Up Their Hands As II TO
Surrender, Then They 0per-
ate Machine Guns With
Their Feet


With the Amer San Army in France
Aug sl--The Germans have jus
evolved another new and treacherou,
device by which they operate theil
machine guns with their feet. while
holding up their hands In token OF
surrender. according 10 a story told
by Americans who are fighting In the
riciniiy OF Fisme.
Some OF our troops operating In the
region OF Fismes told me that they
came across an enemy machine gum
ner who. when he saw our men ap-
preaching him. keli up his hands and
shouted ~kamerad" Our men ad :
yaneed to make him prisoner and
when within twenty feet OF him he
began firing al them by means Of
his machine gun attachment working
Il with one Of his feet.
Despite the rain OF lead which he
was able 70 pour into the ranks OF
cur men they charged him with their
bafonets He fell with twenty bay-
onet wounds In his body.
The Incident. however. serves TO
further accentua-c the way the Huns
are fighting in their final despera-
Son. Also may say in this connec-
ton that II Is clly in such eases of
Hun barbarism that the American
'oops refuse to take prisoners.
