of pity. They are forced to be nib

do eat or suffer Interestingly.

Miss Cronin is a remarkably clever

mode of life habits and ambitions.

the boys of the second, third, fourth,
fifth, and sixth grades filling into their
respective seats just as they do at school;
the same obtains with the other boys.
There are two projects, Father Harden

in teaching by three other instructors.

AS IT is IN FRANCE
This morning an uncensored letter was
received by a business man in this city
whose son is an officer in the regular
army under General Pershing in France.
One paragraph in the letter should be OF
Interest, for 1t contains an intimation
that the feeling is strong among the
American soldiers that the war may in
the end be determined by air craft, SO
that there is hope that the United States
| will speed the manufacture and shipment
of air crafts.
Another paragraph in the letter speaks
incidentally OF some peculiar conditions
| in France 1t reports that $1,000 or more
could not buy a pound of sugar in
| France, for there is no sugar for sale
there. So also it is impossible to secure
in France in the shops any cigarettes
cigars. or smoking tobacco, for there is
none Therefore there is great rejoicing
among the American soldiers when they
receive from home packages which con-
| tain sugar or tobacco in one form or
another. Those who receive the sugar
are generous, striving to make equitable
distribution of it among their comrades.
| They urge that as much sugar as possible
and all the tobacco that can be secured
| be sent to the American army in France,
1 for these things serve greatly. when re-
/ ceved, to give much cheer to the soldiers.
