morning had just struck when fhe courier arrived at the Y. M c. A Headquarters in Paris.
 Already 8 knot of Red Triangle workers had wandered in. Every day may be Sunday bye and bye, but while this war lasts there will be no Sundays-not days of rest at any rate-in the work the "Y" Is doing in France.
 I've just come in from So and So," the courier reported, "and there are two brigades of troops just arriving there who've been hoofing 1t for the past seven days. Whats more, they haven't had a smoke or any other human com fort for the last forty eight hours. And there isn't one of them that's been able to write home since he set foot in France. Who'll help me load & couple of trucks?"
 VOLUNTEERS HUSTLE.
 The volunteers were twelve. Tn an hour, by hustling double time, three huge army trucks were loaded with cigars, cigarettes, pipe and chewing tobacco, chewing gum, chocolate, soda pop and any other commodities and comeshbles the "Y" men could lay their hands on. The Red Triangle courier who brought in the news hadn't slept for forty-eight hours, but that didn't make any difference to him.. ''Hurryt'' he urged. They're pretty near all in, those kids"

AIR RAID ON BERLIN
United States Pliers Will Visit State Fair Grounds Next Week and Give Demonstrations.

They will be present to become part of Uncle Sam's war exposition, which is going to be big feature at the fair. The air raid on naBerlin--not the Berlin the -fiiers wuld prefer to visit-wilI be made by f1iers from the aviation field at Mineola. Director Robert O. Clark made a visit to the aviation field this week and secured the sanction of the government for the visit. The battle plane will be ac- companied by a pilot and the aircrafts will perform dazzling evolutions in the air each day to show the people of Connecticut what the airmen in France have to be ready for. Tail spins, nose dives, loop-the-loop, bomb dropping. formations for attack and the like will be executed. Uncle Sam has set out to let the people of the country know what is being done to beat the Germans The various agencies of the government which have a part in winning the war will v snow the pf1nClpal parts or tnelr WOrk. The army and navy, agricultural, for estry and other departments will have very complete exhibits Various types of arms and equipment will be seen. Models of such things as battleships and other naval crafts will he there.
 The fair opening on next Tuesday will be the greatest in the history of the society. The variety of exhibits is most extensive. A wonderful program of entertainment has been arranged. For an additional attraction, this week the management secured Ma adame Grace Hamlin, a dramatic soprano who will sing every afternoon and evening. The grounds will be open day and night. The Junior Food Army exhibit is assuming very large proportions and will be a fine feature of the fair.

trucks rumbfed on towards bri- gades' headquarters with mob of shrieking, frantic boys in khaki trailing behind. The mob grew.
 At headquarters the "Y" man in charge jumped from the truck and made his way inside. May we open shop?' he hurriedly demanded of the dust-stained, fagged-out adjutant-
 Hell, yes; you bet you cant" was the answer, and the gang of "" workers went to 1t.
 One truck was sent on to the town adjoining, one of the brigades being billeted there; but the second truck was immediately backed up to the curb in the village place. A young riot was the result. Those who could fight their way to the truck got 8 packet of cigarettes or a slab of smoking or chewing and fought their way out again. They did not wait to return to their billet for B smoke. The lucky in- dividuals pumped down on the curb and lit one right of the bat. Then, after two or three deep, sossl- satisfying pulls at the cigarette, they plunged back into the mob for a package of chewing gum or slab of eating chocolate. And while they showed and jabbed;and fought their way to the truck everybody cheered and oheered.

 The next day the two br1gades walked some nDre. That day there was Willie again. And on the following day again they walked. There is, in fact, great deal of walking in this story. There was about one hundred and fifty miles of 1t in what the two brigades did the next days; but lack of space does not let one describe 1t in de- tail.
 Seeing France" was what the at the end of the sixth day there arose strong suspicion that it could not be only France they were see ing. France was not large enough to hold all that seeing" they were sure. However, never mind about That, either. Each day they walked ars ate more Willie

 Un6rstand, now. that army in France x8 extremely well fed At permanent camp and even in tho front line trenches the food Is varied and of the very best. But when troops are hiking the way these two brigades had to hike there was neither time nor oppor- tunity to tickle the lads with tasties. That was nothing, though. It wasn't the food that was the trouble. The Willie" still held out; but everything else was 'Nnapoo." There was not a pipeful of tobacco in the outfit. The last cIaw of chewing had been chawn. AS for a cigarette, had anyone dis played one there would have been a riot.
 The two br1gades walked on. They had no orders to quit march ing. They rose each morning and walked. The song. Where Do We Go From HereY" ceased to have any tnspirationa1 effect. They were far, far from knowing where they were going. The long lines of weary. worn, fagged-out men were fed up with their marching. They had come atoot with all their gear more than one hundred and fifty mfles in a little more than six days. Another day like this. and
 About this time there arrived in Paris courier. The courier like that line of footsore. weary lads tramping along or their way, was white from head to foot with the dust of the white, chalky roads of France EaR-past seven in the

had seen their families give money to the "Y." and they had wondered what became Of that money. Now they saw. They weren't only cheering the "Y," though. They were cheering, too, If they didn't know it, their families and friends who are the ''Y's" backbone.
 An hour later the Red Triangle was firmly established in those tive French towns. The Roman Catho- lie church in one of the towns gave the "Y'' the use of an entire house it owned on the public square. In the other town the mayor gave the "" permission to open where it would. That evening two Red Triangle canteens were in full blast.
 ON RED TRIANGLE PAPER
 The two towns were queer to see that Sunday. There were boys in khaki spread all over the place. Every boy had & cigarette tucked between his lips or he was chewing away st 8 jawful of gum. or nib- bling at slab of eating choco- late. And while he smoked or chewed or nfbbled, about every one of those lads was intant1y serb. bling away on sheet of note paper with Red Triangle marked at the top. The paper was the note paper the E'Y" trucks had brought along: and for the first time since they had set foot in France, our boys were writing hopa.

 certain bunch of American troops just now putting around on the map of France who would like to get their hands on the man who said 1t. The troops in question, two brigades of infantry, are very much of the opinion that an army traveks on it's feet. They are still further somewhat of the opinion that in the army's hSndbook of physiology there Is no such word as stomach.
 A fortnight ago the two brisades landed at & certain port. Without affronting the censor. 1t my be said that the port iB more thafa one hundred and fifty miles from the front.

 4 STORY ABOUT WALKING.
 There were trains at the static a. Having climbed aboard the trains, which each individual soldier be- Heved were to take them to their destination. the lads in khaki draped themselves in and about the cars in that graceful way all soldiers have of draptng them selves. Presently, amid rousing cheers, the trains got under way. It wasfEt for far, though; not more than a couple of hours walk, which the trains did at that same gait; for. having arrived at a country crossroads the trains came to a dignified halt Get out and walk. '' was the order then.
 The two brtgades walked, They walked all that day-or it seemed all that day, at any rate. After that they camped.

In addition to the trucks two touring cars were loaded with all the men and SUD- plies they could carry. In less than two hours and half the process sion of supply trucks and touring cars swooped down the hill to where the two brigades had at last ended their march

HELPS PAY FOR BREAD

There has been much misunder-
standing about the bread program in
England. 1t is true that the English
man buys loaf of bread for less than
an American can, but it is poorer
bread, and the British government is
paying $200000,0OO year toward the
cost Of it.
All the grain grown in Great Brit
ain is taken over by the government
at an arbitrary price and the imported
wheat purchased on the markets at
the prevailing market price. This is
turned over to the mills by the govern
ment at price that allows the adul-
terated war bread loaf of four pounds
to sell at IS cents, the two pound loaf
at 8 cents and the one pound loaf at 8
cents.
In France, under conditions some
what similar, but with larger ex.
traction, the four pound loaf sells for
l6 cents.

NEED BIG HERDS
Europe's Meat Supply Must Come
From America.
Warning Nations Have Depleted Live
Stock at Enormous Rats, Eve,
Killing Dairy Cattle For Fsod.

American stock breeders are being
asked to conserve their hocks and
herds In order to meet Europe's tre-
mendous demands for meats during
the war and probably for many years
afterward.
The United States food admins
tratiOn reports that American stock
raisers have shown a disposition to
cooperate with the government In in
creasing the nations supply Of live
stock.
Germany today Is probably better
supplied with live stock than any 9th
er European nation. When the Ger
man armies made their big advance
into France and then retreated vir-
tually all the cattle in the invaded
territory - approximately 100000
head-were driven behind the German
lines.
But In England-where 100000
acres Of pasture lands have been turn
ed into grain flelds-the cattle herds
are decreasing rapidly. One Of the
reasons apparently is the declining
maximum price scale adopted by the
English as follows: For September,
sits per 100 pounds; October, $17.2S
November and December, $1608; jan
larry, $14.40. The effect Of these prices
was to drive beef animals on the mar
ket as soon as possible.
In France the number Of cattle as
well as the quality have shown an
enormous decline during the war.
Where France had 14,807 600 head of
cattle in 1913, she now has only r.
341,9OO, a decrease Of 1866 per cent.
And France 10 today producing only
one gallon Of milk compared to two
and one-half gallons before the war.
Denmark and Holland have been
forced to sacrifice dairy herds for beef
because Of the lack Of necessary feed.
Close study Of the European meat
situation has convinced the Food Ad-
ministration that the future problem
Of America lies largely in the produc-
ton of meat producing animals and
dairy products rather than In the pro-
duction of cersals for export when
the war will have ceased.
