DARKROOM BECOMES
 A'Y CANTEEN
Drinks Changed For U. s. Boys
 Billeted in Old French Town.

Paris, Sept. l (By MaiD-In the very heart of French port town, where traffic is thickest, there stood bar room. It was just at the point where a sailors or soldiers thirst was greatest as he trudged up the hill. It did rattling good business, such good business that the authorities kept a special eye on it.
 Whenever military policeman had nothing better to do, he would stroll up to this bar to see how many men were draped over it. Accordingly. its trade languished, for there are more desirable things to do than to be a consistent drinker in the most con- spicuous place in town.
 Before long the madame found that her business had fallen on evil ways. Her success had been so great that it had failed!
 A public sale was announced-a sale of all the oh! so beautiful fix lures! Without thought of price, everything would go beneath the hammer of the auctioneer. Every one in town knew of it. And when you say "every one", you include Ar thur $. Taylor who used to be news paper man in Philadelphia, and who is now the head of the Y. M C. A. in the district of the port town.
 So he went to the sale. And when the bidding fell off, and the madame wrung her hands because the price was so low then up stepped MT. Tay- Tor and bought all the fixtures for the Y M. c. A.
 After that he dickered with the landlord and came to an agreement which permitted him to leave the fix

PROTESTS NOT WANTED
nti-Administratdon Candidates Re- bulxed At Po1lS-Thompson and Hardwick Defeats Please

Washington, Sept. 13.-The elimin- ation of the protesting pacifist and the anti-war legislator of every party and from every section is disclosed in the recent primary elections, most particularly the primaries of Illinois and Georgia, in the opinion of lead CTS of both parties in Washington
 Tn Illinois Medill Mccormick, on the face of partial returns, has de- feated William Hale Thompson, Chi cago's anti-war mayor, by a majority of more than 70,000 in a three-cor- nered fight in which the third party. George Edmund Foss, was himself almost as ardently pro-war as the vic- tor.
 In Georgia Senator Thomas w. Hardwick, candidate for renomina- ton, was defeated by William J. liar ris, formerly Trade Commissioner, solely on the issue of Senator Hard wick's alleged opposition to President Wilson's war aims and methods. In this case the President had interfered successfully in behalf of Harris by writing letter of indorsement for his former subordinate. It adds one more victory to the mixed record of suc- cesses in the Executive interferences in behalf of the loyalist candidates in the various primaries.
 Republican leaders In Washington are jubilant over the success of Rep resentative Mccormick. They hold that his victory over Mayor Thompson who admitted that he was against the war because Chicago next to Berlin, was the largest German city in the world, is a clean cut win out for the Republican program of a relentless war with a dictated peace. Speaking for, the Republicans Senator Lodge, the Republican leader, said last night:
 '"The result in Illinois is a source of deepest qualification and it is espe- cially pleasing that MT. Mccormick got such a tremendous majority. It assures us not only another Republi- can Senator from Illinois but one who also favors vigorous prosecution of the war and who will never be willing to accept compromise or negotia- ted peace"

lures where they were, to leave the bar where it was-but to change what passed across the bar
 That was only little while ago. But today as you mount the hill of the town, as you see the doors of the par stretching out their invitation to bring in your thirst and have it quenched, you will see a strange thing. Over the door you will see in large letters the words:
 THE RED TRIANGLE
 Inside behind the bar you will sec an Americal girl in the sky blue uni form of the canteen worker. And ou will see sailors and soldiers lean ing their elbows OF the shining n1a- hogany and hear them say things like this:
 "Give us a chocolate milk shake.
 Make mine pineapple.
 Flows the Y. M. special today ?''
 Package of cookies and two strawberry sodas".
 Think of it! Sodas, in France! And yet this is only one of three places in that one port town where the Y. M. c. A. has soda fountain. Beside the bar sits another American girl selling soda checks and in the lulls changing the record on the victrola Nothing old about those records either. With New York just "a few days away, the supply of tunes is kept up to tho minute.
 Tn the back room there are small tables and chairs. Those who prefer to rest as they drink may do so. And many do.
 You see I figured it out this way" said MT. Taylor as he looked over the blue and olive drab shoulders packed along the bar, "I figured it out that half the attraction of a bar is the so- ciability of drinking slowly and gos- siping while you do it. And you see it isl"

"Dear Mother:
 To-day is Sunday and I want to let you know that I am getting along all right but I haven't enough to smoke. II think the war will be over soon. It looks that way from the way the boys are driving the Germans now. From the reports we got over here we thought the war was over and the Germans were going over there and start another one. All the boys with me are going back to the company soon, but l don't think I will go back for while yet. I may spend the winter here unless I get we'll but l don't care to put in another winter as l did the las one. It was sure cold and wet and we nearly froze to death in the trenches and we had no boots until it.was summer when we didn't need them. These people sure do use their heads when it is too late. l will close with love to all. Write soon as l am getting lonesome.

Before registration was begun 1t was estimated that there would be between five and six hundred to register here. District No. i accounted for IA, Dis- trict No. 2, BPS, and District No. 3, 63. The first district consists of Berlin proper, the second of Kensington, and the third of East Berlin. The total for all three districts is 505, and of this number 503 were white and two colored. Twenty-nine of the total had only their first citizenship papers, and I'll were naturalized aliens. Tn East Berlin a man told the registrars that he had the consent of the health in- spector not to register and. when told that he must sign up, he positively re- fused to do so. No action was taken up yesterday about his case, but 1t is now in the hands of the authorities.
