Beware of German peace offers!
Beware of this trumped-up talk OF
German strikes! Don't think it's
true. Remember Kipling's warning,
Make ye 70 peace with Adam-Zad,
the bear that walks like man.
This was the message brought
straight from the French front to
America by James McCulloch, min
ing engineer of Butte, Montana, who
went over to Europe to fight as soon
after the Germans had marched into
Belgium as he could get there. He
sailed from New York on August 10,
1914, nine days after England de-
clared war. He has fought ever since
then, except when he lay wounded
in the hospital.
Only Survivor of Fourteen
Fourteen Americans went over
with him to take a hand in things.
Eleven of them lie dead in Flanders.
One of them was sent home disabled
months ago, and one, between life
and death, is in hospital in Alder
shot. James McCu1loch Is the last
of that little group of offhand ideal
lists.
About thirty-four years DID," the
passport he- took to England read.
The James McCulloch who returned
to the United States is an old man.
His hair, which the passport de-
scribes as dark brown, Is gray. He
has been twice badly wounded. and
he has suffered most of all from gas
shock. But he has never been afraid,
except Of one thing.
1.-THE fellows who are fighting at
the front have just one big fear
now" he said. "They are afraid
that an easy peace will be patched
up with Germany, and that this
whole thing will have to be gone
through with again dozen years
from now.
"All that we've done Is wasted II
the next generation has to do It all
over. We've paid the price once, and
once Is enough. We fought think
ing that we were making the world
safe for the kids, and If the poifti-
clans and those who don't know
what they're doing make peace be-
fore there can be any peace, we
haven't gained thing"
An Heroic Highlander
"I saw something over there on
the battlefield that Kipling would
have loved to write poem about, Ill
bet. 1t tickles me yet whenever I
think of II. It was after the battle,
and a little Highlander, four feet
nothing or so, had got hung up on
the barb wire entertainments. All Of
a sudden big German saw him and

NAMES OF TROOP SHIPS
AND DEPARTURE DATES
MUST BE KEPT SECRET

Every soldier in training In this
country today would do well TO re-
member that Secrecy Means Safety
and that upon receiving notice that
his command 10 about to sail TOT
France he should keep stiR upper
lip and maintain silence In every Lam
guage he knows.
The arrest Of . young oficer who
divulged to a member OF his family
the name of the vessel on which ne
was about to sail and the date or It's
departure, shows that the War De-
partment intends 10 gigidly enforce
the order forbidding the disclosing
OF such information.
= Concerning the arrust Of the officer
the War Department issued the fol-
lowing statement:
"The War Department authorizes
the announcement that young OH
Ger is held In arrest because he d.
vulged to q relative Che name OF the
vessel upon which he was about to
start overseas and the schedule date
of departure. As result OF this
prohibited information the relative
OF the young officer. 0 0rst heuten-
ant, sent a telegram to him at the
port of embarkation. This telegram,
which was not in cipher, furnished
information which. In the hands OF
the enemy, might have endangered
the vessel and all aboard.
"The disclosure Of such informa-
ton by officers and men about to
sail is strictly forbidden In general
orders No. "a. War Department,
1917; and warning Is again issued
that officers and men must not &C.
quaint relatives or friends with de-
tails of arrangements for departure.
Disciplinary action faces offenders.
"The case of the young officer In
arrest in this instance Is before the
War Department for action, follow
ing an investigation at the port OF
embarkatiop.
There is also to be further in
quiry to ascertain whether the i'm
mediate superior of the officer held
in arrest properly instructed this Of
ficer as to the requirement Of secrecy
concerning the names Of vessels and
sailing dates"

Flanders Veteran Warns Against
Peace Before Germany Is Beaten

face a-grin. And just as thought
the little chap was done for, one OF
the huskiest Highlanders ever saw

let out below, and started back.
1t was a race for the little fellows
life, and the devil take him IL the
Scotty was the hindmost! But he
wasn't. He got there in time to run
his bayonet clear through the Ger

Germans Souls Poisoned

fore this. Wherever my work has
taken me, and that's pretty much all
over the world, they all had the
same notion-nothing but relentless
expansion. I've watched them I'm

tralia, the South Sea Islands, and
half dozen other places, and they're
all the same. Their souls are
poisoned with their desire for world
possession.

imagination much IN wartime. Co
ing over the top, when all Is said, is
just one foot after another, and there
you are, with something worth while

CANNON MADE OF ICE

Some ingenius workmen in Petro-
grad more than 175 years ago carved
six large cannon out Of blocks OF
ice, turned them In lathes and bored
them for six-inch shells. And they
actually fred salutes from them. The
ice cannon were sufficiently strong
to withstand the explosion of nearly
1000 grains of real gunpowder. All
of which goes to prove that improvis-
ing is not entirely new. Whether
the use of the expression, cold STEEL
can be traced back to these Ice can
non is another matter.

FREE FROM DANDRUFF
Save your hair! Double its beauty

If you care for heavy hair, that
glistens with beauty and is radiant
with life; has an Incompatible softness
and is fluffy and lustrous, try Danderine.
Just one application doubles the beauty
of your hair, besides it Immediately dis
solves every particle of dandruff; you

Helpful Suggestions
From a Man
Who Knows

Editor & Proprietor,
The Greeneville Sun,
Greeneville, Tenn.
My Dear Mr.. Lyon
| have noted on several occasions
your articles in the paper relative to
the lack of advertising upon the part
of the merchants of our town, and
an apparent failure to appreciate the
service rendered in your paper, by
the citizens of the County,
Permit me to say that consider
the Greeneville Sun, in its present
form as a Daily, of inestimable value
to the town and the County as bus
mess builder and news dissemination
During all the strenuous times of the
war, we took two copies at home, in
order that all the members might get
first news as you so ably furnished
it. A careful comparison showed
that the information given in your
press dispatches covered everything
in brief (that would follow later in
the dailies from other cities) and in
ample form to satisfy.
As to an advertising medium, the
Company, of which ! am President,
has been using it continuously, and
are only for the time being out of
your columns, waiting the arrival of
new electrotypes. In former years.
we advertised in thousands of Weekly
papers. Today we do not advertise
in single one, as the Dailies are the
only medium through which we get
any results, and we are now resuming
our place in all the Dailies of the
South to the exclusion of the Week
lies.
| believe that we have as good q set
of retail merchants in Greeneville as
any town along the line, and | do r It
lay all the blame at their door fer
not advertising in your paper. No
matter how good the NJ, dunn; no
matter how much the obligation rests
upon them to patronize it as a vdlu-
able asset in our community, they
will not do so unless personally So
licited, continuously worked and the
shown them. ] am con-
nected with a bank in Knoxville and
the pepers of that city make life mis-
cradle, if we fail to give them their
quota of our appropriation for adver-
Using. Now get you a good, live So
licitor put the matter right square up
to every man that should advertise,
and you will have your columns full.
Some time ago | purchased pair

For one | wish to assure you that
[ appreciate the publication of the

has been started in our town. / am
glad that | mailed you my check for
,he $500 for a years subscription,
and / believe that if by personal can
5ass you will put it squarely up to
he citizens of the town, many others
will do likewise. You have the me-

hem understand the situation and
you will get it,
