YOUNG HERO WEARS
MANY DECORATIONS

PARIS, Oct. 80. The only dec
orations worn by Private Luke
Thayer, Jr., of the United States
marines up to two years ago were
those received about his optics when
he settled his disputes in the
good old Yankee way.
Today Luke, who is a trifle ove
10 years old, wears three campaign
ribbons, a croix de guerre with a
palm, two wound stripes and two
other stripes indicating a years
service in France.
Incidentally he is wearing half a
dozen stars from Boche shrapnel
and bullets.
Within a few months after Luke
enlisted he earned his first cam
paign ribbon by helping to impress
the might of Uncle Sam on some of
the natives of San Domingo. A
jaunt to Haiti was next in order,
where he acquired another ribbon.
1t was at Belleau woods that
Luke earned the right to wear the
wal cross with a palm. A detach-
ment of the marines was with a
French regiment at the time.
On a little hillock we'll camouflag-
ed by a clump of bushes, two Ger
man machine guns were splitting
death into the ranks of the French
and the marines. Twelve volun-
teers were called for to storm the
two nests and Luke was one of the
twelve.
The twelve divided into two bod
les, but of the five with Luke only
one got as far as the objective with
him. The others were either killed
or wounded. Three grenades we'll
placed by the boy from Pennsylvan
ia finished up the crew of the gun
he was after.
Over on the other part of the hill
lock Luke noticed his 'pals" were
having a tough time. He turned
the gun he had captured on the
Germans still fighting with the otn-
err bullet spittcr,'' and net only
finished them quickly, but routed a
counter attack made by about 80
of the Boche. Aid arrived a little
later, but before that time frag-
ments of shell had put Thayer out
of action temporarily.

assayer in charge of the United
States mint at Carson, died shortly
before noon today at Carson, ac-
cording to a telegram received by
John Dunn. Death is supposed to

life.

THREE POUND SUGAR
RULE is RESTORED

The sugar allowance for homes
and also for public eating places is
now at the old rate of three pounds
per person, or per 80 meals served,
per month, says a t~elegraphic ruling
received today from the United
States food administration. The
change does not affect manufactur-
ers, however, and sugar certificates
will be required from these as here
tofore. Bakeries, retail merchants,
saloons and soda fountains will be
rationed as announced some time
ago.. Any head of a family may
purchase his full months allotment
at the rate of three pounds for each
person to be fed, but grocers will
continue to keep a strict record of
all sales, and users of sugar who ex-
coed their allowance will be penal

PEOPLE To SAVE NUT Shells

Girls. Through the department OF
agriculture all county agents of
that department will organize nut
ting parties. In addition every
school is urged to rouse the inter-
est of it's pupils and to encourage
nut gathering in every spare mo-
ment of the pupils time.
The aid of the young people will
be absolutely necessary to supply
the 100000 pounds of shells and
fruit stones that the government
production schedule calls for. The
government cannot buy more than
one-third the necessary shells at
present. In fact, they declare, the
shells of all the cocoanuts grown in
the West Indies and Central Ameri-
ca. if they could be obtained, would
not fill the needs. They are max
ing arrangements to get the she'll
from the West Indies, but it will be
months before this plan can be put
into operation. In the meantime
they must mix the available she'll
charcoal with wood charcoal. This
is not to the best interest of the
men because the wood charcoal set
ties, making breathing difficult, and
it has not the %absorptive qualities
of she'll charcoal.

NO DUCK HOLIDAY
THIS YEAR IN
OAKLAND

OAKLAND, Nov. 1. = 1t is going
to be a grainless winter for the
thousands of wild ducks which year
ly flock to Lake Merritt, in the
heart of this city. The Oakland
chamber of commerce has abandon
ed its annual pageant of welcome
to the fowl, and food conservation
orders have prohibited the feeding
of barley and other grain to them,
as has been the custom in the past.
w. w. Richards, a hunter of big
and little game all over the North
American continent, who has made
a yearly study of the duck flight to
Lake Merritt, thinks there will be
as many this season as formerly,
but they will not stay as long. He
says:
THE first ducks to reach Lake
Merritt are the sprig or pitfalls.
They begin to arrive the latter part
of August. Most of them come
from the Klamath reservation
near the California-Oregon line.
1.-The next flight consists of pin
tail, wigeon, green wing, teal, SHOW
elers, CALDWELL ard mallard. They
arrive about the middle of October
The last flight comes from the
Yukon delta and Saskatchewan and
consists of canvasbacks and red
heads.
Il have hunted ducks all over the
country, but on no other body of
water have l seen so many birds,
of so many different varieties,
all dwelling in peace with each 9TH
er and with mankind, in the heart
of a city of 285,000 inhabitants
within a few minutes walk of the
city hall and surrounded by the
constant activity of a great metrop-

BIG FORESTS IN
SOUTH FELLEO
FOR SHIPS

GALVESTON, Tex, Nov. 1 =
Pine trees in which birds were
building nests at sowing time last
spring are now made into ships
ready for cargoes of grain destined
for Europe and the forests of the
south everywhere show the results
of the great shipbuilding drive.
Construction of a single ship of
the Ferris type, calling for nearly
100000 feet of lumber, necessi-
tates the clearing of nearly 1000
acres of pine trees. The Daugher-
ty type ship requires 100000 feet
of lumber. While the pine forests
OF Louisiana and Texas produce
from 10000 to 10000 feet of lum-
er an acre, only a. small percentage
CT this is available for shipbuilding.
Two score vessels already have
been launched at Beaumont, Orange
and Houston, and the consumption
of lumber at Orange alone will de-
nude more than 100000 acres of
forest. %Shipyards at Beaumont and
Houston will take as much more.
The yards at Lake Charles, Morgan
City, New Orleans, Slidell, Pasca-
goula, Gulfport, Pensacola and Mo-
bile likewise are drawing on the
forests of the south, and the wood
land cleared will total millions of
acres when the shipbuilding cam
psign is owe
The emergency fleet corporation
has contracted for all available ship

NEW YORK, Nov. 4. Every
boy and girl in this country is again
asked by the United States govern
ment to save American soldiers
from the horrors of German gas.
The chemical warfare division of
the army has urged them to gather
every walnut. hickory nut and but
ter nut in the woods about their
homes this fall to help make gas
masks for the American troops in
France. 1t is from the shells OF
these nuts that the charcoal for gas
masks must come for the next six
months or more.
There is said to be a ready and
profitable market for the nut meats,
making it practicable to turn the
shells into the government imme-
diately. Whole nuts can also be
used. For collection purposes the
Red Cross has arranged 100 collec-
ton centers through the country
for the concentration of shells. They
will be shipped from these points in
carload lots to the government car
bon plants at New York and San
Francisco.
The Boy Scouts have enlisted the
aid of their 1000 young members
in this work, as have the Camp Fire

ARMY DISQUALIFICATION
WILL TAKE TWO YEARS

NEW YORK, Nov. 2. = Demob-
ilization of American forces in
France will require a period of two
years after peace is declared, &C
cording to General T. Coleman Du-
pont, just back from a two months
visit on the western front. In urg-
ing the people to support generous
ly the campaign of the sever war
work agencies, he declared that
"statesmanlike plans" are being laid
for the trying period following
peace. Every hut in France" he
said, will become a university class

THE STAR-SPANGLED BANNER

, oh, say, can you see by the dawn's early light,
What SO proudly we hailed at the twiight's last
cleaning,
Whose stripes and bright stars, through the peril
Gus fight,
Ger the ramparts we watched, were so CALAMITY
streaming?
And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in
air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was
still there!
Oh, say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
Der the land of the free and the home of the
brave?
On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the
deep,
Where the foes naughty host in dread silence re-
poses,
What is that which the breeze, DER the towering
steep
AS it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the CLEAN of the mornings first
In full glory reflected, now shines in the stream.
Oh. say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave,
Der the land of the free and the home of the
brave?
And where is that band WHO so vauntingly swore.
Mid the havoc of war and the battles confusion.
A home and a country they'd leave us no more?
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps
pollution.
NO refuge cOulu save III nlfelInS ana slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the
. grave;
And the starspangled banner in triumph doth
wave
Oer the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Oh, thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the wars desola-
ton;
Blest with victry and peace, may the heaven-res-
cued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us
a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is Just.
And this be our motto, SIN God Is Our Trust"
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall
wave
Der the land of the free and The home of the
brave!
