The sick chart nowadays resembles
the weather record, going up when it is
damp and snow and going down when
it is clear and cold. 1t is claimed that
the many cases due to pneumonia or
similar diseases are caused largely by
the crowding in barracks and billets
of newly landed men. While the sick
rate of seasoned troops is slightly
more than per cent. that of those
newly landed is just under 8 per cent.

family. was acquitted by a jury in

Plans for Caring for Blind.

Plans for the care of the blind include
instruction to begin as soon as possible
after the wound has been received, exA

Pershing Man Tells How
Trench Phone Was Righted

"v'' of six months service at the
front
THE night We took over the sector
from the French, we looked
over the telephone service. Their
system used wires with an alternating
current. Now anybody knows that
such a current gives off electricity
which gets INTO the ground, and Eny
German can pick up all the messages
which go across. In this way ne
knows when : n attack is coming.
IF you can surprise a German. he
is yellow clean through, and II he
finds you are ready for him he won't
fight when he attacks. So we nd to
fcol him on the telephone stuff.
THE orders came through, Take a
chance that he won't attack in the
next two days, and clean out all this
wire. Every bit of it must come out.
Boy, how we went to that job. We
worked for two days and two nights
without sleep. We put in a system
with direct current which only gives
off a buzzing sound.

that the Russian people are too great

The situation which has now been
brought to a crisis was foreseen both
in the United States and Great Brit

moral support for the Russian peo-
pie expressed by President Wilson
through the Soviet Congress, and
again in refusing assent to japanese
intervention in Siberia, was predi-
Gated upon the possibility of just
such a development.
The purpose was to stimulate the
Russians to continue the fight for
liberty and a democratic government

II was noted that both engineering
and quartermaster departments have
huge estimates for new camps. The
committee will call men from these

fifty-eight camps, which will be
erected in France, and for the quar-

that the misrepresentation, II any,
were ever communicated to the
French government, and that 1t was
not sufficient to allege that the per-

upon the false representation.
In statement issued last night,
former Senator Joseph w. Bailey,
