Get Complete Family Record.

Sugar records now being kept In
grocery stores are causing some per-
turbation on the part of grocery men.
Since the food administration linn
tied the amount of sugar a family
can use per month. the grocers have
had to keep track OF the amount sold
to each customer.
For this purpose they use a sort of
book, or ledger, In which the GUS
toner's name and address, and other
Information pertaining thereto, are
recorded.
Since most of the purchasers are
women, 1t car be imagined that the
grocers' task. sometimes, Is not so
easy, but the women. realizing that
the information must be given, have
gracefully accorded it
Nor is that all.
Grocers do tell that they get more
Information than they have any need
for. Here's how Ii is:
They insist on telling me all about
little Johnny. and what little Susie
is doing today. and-why. say, since
we started this here sugar record. we
know the complete family history of
all our customers"
Now what do you know about that?

Modern Armor.

The soldiers of old went forth to
fight, clad in cumbersome and expen-
sive armOr, which. while serving as
a protection, nevertheless hindered
them from putting forth their best
fighting strength. Today Martin Je-
lalian. an inventor of Rhode Island.
has made it possible for a soldier to
he protected by armOr. He is n OF
several dozen inventors who have re-
invented the coat of mail.
The device is a bulletproof metallic
structure. which surrounds the body
and extends from the top of the Shout
ders to below the thighs. This steel
coat consists of two like parts held
together across the chest by means
of straps. Hooks attach the coat TO
semi-cylindrical pieces of metal which
fit closely about the upper part of the
Jog and are fastened behind by straps.
The inner surface of the armor is
padded. The head is protected by a
lined mask composed of the same
metal.-Popular Science Monthly.

Shoots the trouble"
Before this high-school graduate Of
unusual accomplishments obtained her
present position of indoor mechanic,
she proved herself as efficient as the
men in doing line work, climbing poles
and replacing wires as readily as any
of them, says Popular Mechanics, in
describing her attainments.
But for the war and the shortage of
men having mechanical experience, she
probably would not be filling a mans
place.
However, being fond of mechanics
and having a knowledge of electricity,
she intends to remain at her post until
peace comes, and then get a college
education.

COT THE BANANAS
Patriotic American in Border
Town Did Extra "Bit."
How Marching Boys In Olive Drab
Got OeIicacy Almost Under the
Eyes of the Discipline
Loving Sergeant

1t is midnight. In the border town
across the rilsr the populace has gone
to bed. The streets are deserted and
silent say for the measured tread Of
the occasional policeman on his noe
turnal rounds. But the lights are still
glowing in the railway station Oh the
water front, their brightness intensi-
fed by the enveloping gloom.
A train of Pullmans rumbles In from
the ferry dock with a great jangling
Of bells and creaking of wheels as the
brakes take hold. In the stiffness of
the night the racket is magnifed a
thousandfold, but the town slumbers
On.
Above the incessant clang of the To-
connective bell and the hiss of escaping
steam there m to the ears of the
wayfarer from the States a sound that
instantly claims his attention-the
rhythmic tramp, tramp, of feet, hun
dreds, thousands of them it seems, as
the faint staccato becomes a mufled
roar. There is no resisting its lure.
The wayfarer turns in his tracks and
waits.
"Left-turn |" rings out the crisp
command close at hand and, with
wheel-like precision, a column of
marching men In the familiar olive
drab rolls into view around the corner
"Yanks, sure as I'm alive - exclaims
the man from the States as he falls
into step and follows along the side
walk.
Yes, Yanks-Uncle Sans own
%dOughbOys on their way to Berlin via
the western front, and out to timber
up and get "a breath of fresh air while
u new engine is being hooked up.
On they come, alert, keen-eyed fell
lows fresh from the training camps,
splendid Americans all, and eager for a
brush with the Hun.
Still the town slumbers-it is accus-
toned to such sights; but to the Amer
lean, taken unawares, 1t is an inspiring
thing.
Far up the street, an oasis In the
black desert Of night. a friendly light
beacons. AS the column approaches
the boys recognize the familiar out
lines of a fruit stand. The enterprising
merchant knows all about these mid
night "parades" and is prepared. A
thousand pairs of eyes urn hungrIly
to punches of yellow bananas dangling
from their hooks, but the trim young
sergeant is looking straight ahead.
They are all business. those s~ergeants.
The man from the States has seen
II all 1t is his chance. A crisp Ameri-
can bank note quickly changes hands
and presently there Is an empty hook
where a bunch of bananas hung a mo-
ment before. Magically, 1t seems, the
coveted fruit has found Its way into
the rear ranks. Like a cork In a rough
sea the bulky thing is tossed along
from line to line. growing constantly
until the bare stalk is thrown
into the gutter, leaving a hundred
bullying pockets In It's wake.
Thus did one patriotic fund sub
scriber do an extra "bit" for the boys
of the olive drab. At any rate. he
wore the patriotic fund emblem on his
coat.

too should have complete independ-
ence as soon as they showed them
selves qualified for self-government.
When China paid us indemnity for the
Boxer outrages. we turned it back and
told her to use it for the education of
her youth.
So we entered the world war with
no selfish ambition for European or
colonial territory. Territorial lines
are of interest to us only as they rep
resent impartial justice and stand for
the freedom of peoples. In the final
