skowheean to Have a Service Flag

Plans are being made to provide a
service flag for the town Of Skowhe-
gan. As It is intended that II shall
bear stars equal to the number of
those who have enlisted from this
town, it is first necessary to make a
list of the Skowhegan boys who have
entered the service This is now be-
ing done. The list as thus far com
piled is printed elsewhere The pub
LEGATION is made with the expectation
that if there are errors or omission
therein, they will be noted and cor
rected. Inaccuracies should be re-
ported promptly TO Mrs. Vivian
Woodbury. at the Office of X. l. Mars
ton.
The funds necessary 10 provide this
flag are yet to be raised If We have
some citizen of means who might wish
to do so, it would be a very pleasant
thing if he would notify the commit
tee of his willingness to furnish this
flag Unless someone comes forward
in this manner, the amount necessary
will be raised by public subscription
or through some benefit entertainment

new CARDINAL
BEFOREPEAGE?
Big Attendance Of Prelates
Likely for Rome
=. Celebration.

- successor to the late Cardinal
Fcy3eys has yet been appointed When
theechoice is made, the announcement
win be issued at Rome, and will prob
abky be communicated TO the United
Stsres through news channels
Whether or not the late prelate' q
successor will be an American Is a
matter of speculation. At present
there are several vacancies in the
College of Cardinals which may re-
suit, IL has been rumored, in the ap-
pointment Of several new cardinals
TO America
Heretofore there has been no arbi-
trary number Of cardinals assigned to
this country or any other, and it is
understood that the church contem-
plates broadening the scope Of work
in the American field.
His Excellency, Mgr. Bonzano, Pa
pal delegate to the United States, has
no announcement to make as to who
will be appointed to succeed Cardinal
Farley. and il Is not likely that the
announcement will be made through
him when the Pope makes known his
choice.
officials Of the church believe that
the new cardinal will be chosen before
peace Is signed, so that a full attend
ance OF cardinals and patriarchs from
all over the world may be present at
the ceremony to be held in Rome on
that date, at which Pope Benedict
will preside.

WIRE STATIONS

Booths to Be Joined with

A telephone and telegraph substa-
ton VIII be located in the city post
ONCE. beginning December l. it was
announced yesterday. Telephone
booths will be set up in one OF the
main corridors. Messages will be de-
lHered through the local postal serv-
ice. An outgoing kilograms, however,
will be telephOned to the main Office
through the Union Station.
The establishment of this station in
connection with postal service will, to
some extent, be experimental. II It i.
practicable. it is planned that tele-
graph and telephone stations through
out the country will be consolidated
with the pOstoffice system. This, it is
hoped, will abolish the duplication OF
work for both departments.
a resembling order abolishing the old
Tsle that prohibited companies from
IHeking use Of the address files of a
United States pOStofflce was issued by
Pos stmaster General Burleson yester-
day. The new order will permit the

D. G. BOHEMIANS
MUST BEHAVE
Paris Doesn't Seem to Fit
Into Washington
Environs.

That bit Of New York,s bohemia
in Washington known as the Silver
Sea Horse has been hard hit by the
housing crisis. Their neighbors in a
body have demanded that they give
up their wild ways or move out. And
there is no place 70 move to.
When the staid residents of East
Capitol street-that quiet and sedate
section of old Washington-learned
that q bit of New York's Greenwich
Village purposed to migrate to their
neighborhood, great was their con-
sternation.
Could they have looked into the crys-
tai Of the future and learned that
these gay bohemians planned TO Gre
ate in that eddy OF old Washington
a second art center and haunt of
lonG-haired artists and a bit of the
old Latin Quarter of Paris they
would have been still more aghast.
Patiently they endured the artistic
atmosphere with which the air reeked
"a combination OF cigarettes and
other "nonessentials. They suffered
in silence, their slunbers broken by
the merry parties which trooped from
one apartment to another home of the
fraternity and back to the Silver Sea
Horse all through the long summer
nights.
Then suddenly the discovery was
made that the salisbury law would
not exactly apply to any case that
could be considered a nuisance. "
Every resident OF the apartment
house in which one of the proprie-
tors of the little tea house lived went
to the proper authorities and swore
that the Quarter Latin OF Washing
ton was a nuisance"
The crestfaller entrepreneurs who
hoped to cultivate Washington's ar
tistic sense could only remember the
fate OF other similar reformers OF
the past and promised to be quiet,
For even artists must have roofs
over their attics. And there are nc
vacant houses in Washington.

Soldiers Still Wonder
Where They WIN Eat
Turkeys Of Christmas

We know we won't eat our Christ
mas dinner IN Paris or Berlin" the
boys at Camp Meade are telling them
selves, but they now ask. ARE we go
ing to eat our Christmas dinners IN
our own home towns with our own
families, at our own festal boards, or
in camp?"
Since the signing of the armistice
and the announcement OF the demoo-
lization OF the army on this side, In
camps as well as the overseas forces.
the Camp Meade soldiers have been
wondering IL Thanksgiving would see
them honorably discharged from
Uncle Sans service and back IN
civilian life. But the time has slipped
away, and from present indications
most Of these men will be in khaki
next Thursday.
Stin. it's a whole month to Christ
mas. and many things can happen
within thirty days time.
