nAfter.the.Warn pressIna.

Discussion of the "after-the-war pc
riod'' is becoming more general. some
believing that 1t Is too early to predict
what effect victory will have on
women and their mode of living. One
,outourier predicts that the most elab-
orate things will be made apd women
should wear them as an expression of
victory. Banquets and receptions in
honor of foreign visitors and our re-
turning men will demand such clothes,
and it is really up to the women to
heal their heartaches ms best they can
md lift the spirit of the country. The
English women have been doing this
for some time; they have avoided
mourning and are creating as gay a
note as possible in London.-Women's

New York.-One fact seems TO mar
the homecoming of every American
officer and enlisted man returning
from the front for duty with new
American divisions. 1t Is the discovery.
they say, that Americans at home are
too complacent In their hatred of the
Hun. Scores of these oversens veter-
ans have expressed the same thought
In nearly as many different ways.
"a fellow who has lived among the
actual scenes of German brutality and
beastliness can't understand you peo-
pie at home who seem to think we are
going to be able to smooth things
over and live at peace and harmony
with the Huns as soon as treaty of
peace is signed" said one officer, who
not only saw heroic service and suf-
fered severe wounds in one of the hot
test sectors of the front but whose
duties previously took him through
some of the devastated sections of
France nnd Belgium. Every Ameri-
can soldier knows this will be an utter
impossibility.

Lone Doughboy From Oklahoma Looks

With the American Army in the Ar
gonne.-Yauquois plateau, SCARED
with four years of battle, affords n
wonderful view of the battle-ground
over which General Pershing's First
army fought in the first phase of his
attack. From its highest ridge the
whole fighting field from the Meuse to
the western fringe of the Argonne, ex-
cepting one small patch blotted out by
Montfaucon on the right. could be
clearly seen by day and the burst Of
every Boche shell observed.
Far Off to the north n blue line of
hills marked the Boche positions. Dark
columns of smoke announced the or
rival of American shells. Two German
balloons, black specks against low
hanging clouds, watched columns of
our transports winding down the
roads.
Far down on the left German
shells were bursting in white puTs
along the road curving down from
Apremont around hill to Baulny and
then Strengthening out between rows
of straight little trees to Charpentry,
where our tanks fought so valiantly.
Over to the right there were occa-
sional bursts of Boche arrivals on
Montfaucon, golden In the afternoon

German shells were breaking In the
woods and along the roads seuth of
Cierges, just behind our advanced line.

of long columns of trucks. Men gallop-

ed to and fro on horseback. Lines of sol
diers went struggling along the roads
unmindful of enemy shells. Sharp
flashes of light with their accompany
irT crashes signaled the departure
of American projectiles. A tiny train
went rattling across the plain carry
ing munitions toward the front.
Overhead there was constant whirr
of airplane motors and occasionally
the whoofs of antiaircr. fters as
Boche planes attempted sallses across
our lines.
South of Cheppy 40 or more dough-
boys squatted along little road
shooting craps. Two German shells
came in with whine that hardly
reached our ears on vauquois. The
doughboys scattered quickly into the
underbrush. Then they came out ny
twos and threes and the crap game was
resumed.
Balloon Falls In Flames.
A whole fleet of our planes passed
over the plateau. swinging off to the
right and passing over Montfaucon.

their way home.
Fifty or more Yankees stumbled
through the barbed wire entangle-
ments on Vauquois plateau itself,
searching for souvenirs in the con-
crete dugouts and tunnels the Ger
mans had bored deep into its side.
They picked up German skulls, relics
of battles since 1915. looked them over
curiously and threw them aside. They
poked about in the crater of the great
Vauquois mine, exploded by the
French three years ago, and went
sliding down the hillside toward the
rolling Kitchens outside the ruins of
Vauquois village.
One lone doughboy remained
perched upon the biggest rock at the
summit of the highest ridge. his pack

over the battlefield in the gathering

Gen. Spencer Declines
To Alter Opinion
OF Hearst Papers

PASSAIC, N. j., June 17.-As chair
man of the executive committee of
the Passaic branch of the National
Security League, General Bird W.
Spencer has taken an active part in
the fight to bar Hearst newspapers
from this city.
Recently W. P Anderson, the cir
culation manager of Hearts "New
York American" wrote General Spen-
Ger in an attempt to change the gen
erals opinion of Hearst newspapers.
Mr.. Anderson inclosed in his letter
reprints from Hearst papers which pur-
ported to show chow Hearst has helped
to win the war;"
He inclosed reprints from "The
American" and Journal" similar to
those Hearst agents have distributed
broadcast in many towns lately after
citizens made attempts to bar the
Hearst newspapers.
"Please write me what you think
of the reprints am sending" wrote
Mr. Anderson to General Spencer. "Td
like to feel that you have revised your
views of THE American"
This was General Spencer's reply to
"The American" circulation manager:
"Dear Sir: This paraphrase of the
old adage, fear, applies to the Hearst
newspapers:
"'The devil was sick, the devil saint
would be;
The devil got we'll, the devil saint
was he.'"
