London, Oct. 22.-Belgians, British
and French continue their sweeping
march from Tournai to the Dutch from

have reached points within 10 miles
Of Client. Tho Belgians are along tfa

various points.
Along the Lys the British have
moved swiftly toward the Scheldt

Washington, Oct. %. - When the
three weeks campaign closed oversub-
:scription of the Fourth Liberty Loan
appeared assured.
While official reports were lacking.
1t appeared that again the American
people had given to their government
not only what was asked, but more
than was asked in order that the war
against Germany and her allies might
be carried to successful conclusion.
How far the total will run above the
$4,000, 100000 goal officials would not
attempt to estimate. It all depends,
they said, on whether big financial in
terests at the last moment file the big
lump sum subscriptions expected Of
them and whether the number Of
smaller subscriptions by individuals ID
found to meet expectations.
Billion and Half In Day.
New subscriptions entered on the
last day and those made effective by
payment Of the 10 per cent INSTALL
.ment probably will amount to billion
and half dollars for the entire ma.
:tion, 1t was said.
For the next five days banks in ev-
cry city and town in the United States
will be busy adding up subseflpti lions.
Reports and payments then must be
made to federal reserve banks which
are expected to take at least five days
more to report to the treasury.
100000 Subscribers.
Indications are that the number Of
individual subscribers will far exceed
100000 and break all records for
distribution of war bonds for this ma
ti0n or any other.
The honor roll Of bond buyers will
include many who have not partici-
pated in the first, second or third Lib.
erty Loans, officials said.
It will bear the names of subjects Of
other governments neutral and bellig.
erent, throughout the world. Ger.
mans, interned in camps in this coun.
try, and other whose sympathy is not
with their native land, will be enrolled

-
Yes, but what "
from the Secretary of the Navy clos
ing the enlisted mems club and max
ing the island bone dry. OF course
everybody is tickled to death about it.
We go around to the club now in the
evenings, each man selects a table to
himself as far from anybody else as
he can, orders a bottle Of COCO cola OF
soda water, and drinks in silence, the
victrola sits in the corner silent, the
pile of records carry an inch of dust,
al is gloom except Typhoon, the clubs
cat, which still plays with Kannaki
Birds as If nothing had happened.
(The above mentioned birds are cock
reaches, which in Guam grow extra
ordinary in size-one Kannaki Bird in
one night can consume an entire die
tionary (small size of course.) AS l
was saying this enlisted mems club
is a dismal affair, at present. AS it
was, the club was always crowded,
everybody drank beer, everybody had
good time and nobody got
drunk. believe the most of
them will go back to the native
booze, Of course it will be next to I'M
possible to keep the natives from
making it. and as long as they make,
the enlisted men can get it some way.
I can't say that it worries me so much,
did drink the beer when 1 could get
it, but I can get along without very
nicely, as long as can get coco cola.
It's the only way to keep them from
all dying with hydrophobia or whoop-
ing cough or some terrible disease
caused from filth.
The houses they live in remind me
Of Robinson Crusoe. They are built
Of native concrete, or frame, or logs,
the roof support or rafters are poles
pegged to the building and tied to-
gether at the top with Taffu, native
leaf. the roof is cocoanut leaves, the
number of rooms is mostly one in
which the whole family. which in most
cases is nineteen strong hold forth,
they have no beds, sleep in the trees
I suppose.
While was at Number IL Maya
zine. we had Cooke boy to help in
the kitchen, shine shoes, etc. One
night he decided to stay at the bar
racks SO we gave him about half a
dozen blankets, which should have
made quite soft bed. I had the last
watch that night, and when went to
wake him and the cook up at 4:30
this young Cooke, whose name is
Waukeine, had folded all those
blankets and was using them for a
pillow, and was resting his little
bones on the bare floor. Can you
beat it?
Very few of the natives wear shoes,
some few wear spats which is a piece
of leather or little woven mat with
strap across the toe, got a pair
about a month ago, and am just learn
ing to wear them. They also have a
skin disease called the Dobe Itch,
which is very often transmitted to
the marines through the clothes
which the native women wash for
three dollars month. I'd rather have
the seven-years itch for three times
than have the Dobe Itch once for the
length Of time it takes the doctors to
cure it. which is usually about a
month.
They eat principally rice, fruit,
corn, and such other things not too
much trouble to raise, they don't be-
lieve in working, in fact they are
about the most indolent bunch of
people I ever saw, they don't want to
do anything but sit around and chew
beetle-nut and spit blood. or 1t looks
like blood.
