BEHIND THE UNITED WAR WORK.

How thoroughly the people of this country are get
ting behind the United War Work drive that starts next
week is evidenced on every hand. The Y. NJ. c.. A., K G.
and Salvation army are arousing wonderful enthusiasm.
The heads of the two big Jewish colleges for the train.
ing of Rabbis in the United States have issued appeals
for a great patriotic response from the Jews throughout
the country in connection with the United War Work
campaign:
Or. X. Koh1er. president OF the Hebrew Union Col
lege, Cincinnati, O.. says:
Il am convinced that the Jews throughout the land.
from the wealthiest to the poorest. win stand behind the
their full share, as they have done all along whenever
their patriotism was appealed TO. AS president of the
Hebrew Union College, many OF whose graduates and
undergraduates are serving as chaplains of Jewish vel
fare workers on the battlefield and in the camps. 1 am
in the position to testify to the urgent need Of tho Jew
ish Welfore Board and to its splendid work.
Both the frequent verbal reports and the letters
that have reached me tell of the wondrous spirit OF self
sacrificing devotion to the cause with which its noble
workers endeavor to offer help and comfort to the boys
in their anxiety, and distress and inspire them with
courage and faith in hours Of weakness and despair.
Both the most gratifying part of their experience Is
the unique spirit of friendly cooperation, Of comfy and
comradeship they met with on the part OF the members
and officers of the Y. NJ. c. A.. and the Knights of Co
lumbus. as well as Of the n~onJewish officers and sol
diers of the army or navy, and in particular of the non
Jewish chaplains, whether Protestant or Catholic. It
seems as if out Of this cruel warfare a new spirit Of hui
mainly is evolving which, we trust, viii grow ever frmer
and stronger. Here is our great opportunity to manifest
the broad humanitarian spirit of Judaism"
DR.. Cyrus Adler, acting president of the Jewish Theo-
logical Seminary OF America, says:
Every clearthinking person halls the United War
Work campaign with profound satisfaction. as furnishing
a further evidence of the fact that America not only con
ssts of the United States, but that an the people in these
United States have become a united nation.

NO TIME FOR UNsRIDLED LICENSE.

Peace evidently has its orgies as well as war and
upon publication all over the country yesterday that hos
tlities had ceased, a statement today charged as prema-
ture, the nation went mad with abandon and revelry and
in the largest cities unbridled license reigned. Work
stopped everywhere and an incredibly vast sum of money
was lost The destruction of property reached an enor
nous amount. Notwithstanding the fact that the gov
eminent declined to officially confirm the news OF the sign
ing of the armistic people absolutely refused to be held
in restrain and riotous scenes prevailed. Factories, who
depend on the stock tickers for their news, were the great
est offenders and as early as II o'clock their siren
whistles again raised bedlam and fnnoculated people with
the frenzy they have repeatedly done in the past. In fact
steam whistles have become a pest.
1t seems that it is time for the nation to restrain
itself and keep within bounds of sobriety and sanity at
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1918-11-08

least. even though peace itself was declared. AS far as
the newspapers are concerned, whether those who pub
lished the news that the war was ended were imposed
Ipon remains to be seen. They at least prominently re-
corded the fact that the news was not officially confirmed
md because Of that alone the armistice reports should
have been accepted with reserve and caution But when
the war does end let the news be received with rejoicing
but not abandon. with deeency and not unrestrainel liz
cense. Let cooler counsel prevail. Let there be a day
of holiday and celebration properly arranged and OBJ
served, but let the country not forget that thousands upon
thousands of its soldier boys have lost their lives on the
battle fields Of Europe and some respect and honor
should be shown TO them and their relatives.

Kruger as Solomon.

That very eanny person, President Kruger. was once called upon ns King Solomon before him, 10 pass judgment in matter of ownership. The cnSe was that of two brothers. who had been left a farm and could not agree as to the division which had to be made They agreed that. rather than take the mat. ter 10 the courts, they would let Presi. dent Kruger decide. President Kruger appears to have hesituted about s lit tie as King Solomon did. He instructed the elder brother to make what he con sidered a fair division. and then he gave first choice to the younger broth. er. A solution like solomon's, both masterly and simple.

A letter from my brother in Callfor- mia was received three months after he went to camp As soon as they were in camp they were qunrantlned as usual, for ten days. Then case of smallpox broke out and they were quarantned for fifteen days more. Next came measles, for which they were again quarantincd for five days.
 One day before the quarantine for measles lifted boy was sent to the hospital with the humps. Again they were quarantlned.

CHAPTER lV-Continued.

The dead bodies were seized by two men. one at the head and the other at the feet. and thrown into the ditch Corpses were handled exactly aS was il board to he used i'll building bridge. Legs and arms were tossed likewise into the ditch Dead horses and dam aged batteries had to be removed. We were not strong enough 10 remove dead horses. We managed to capture horse which Was running wild and hitched him to the carcasses. Corpses hanging In the trees were left there. No one cared anything about them.
 Canteens and knapsacks Of the dead were searched for food and drink and whatever we found was eaten with the greatest relish.
 French soldiers who had died of sunstrOkc covered the road. Others crawled to right and left of the road and waited there for relief or death. We did not dare to help them. The order was to advance and We had to march on and on. The captain told us we had to pursue the fleeing enemy with all our strength and much dis content was manifest on receipt of this order.
 After being on our feet day and night. staying like barbarians, taking no time to eat or rest, we continued to receive commands to maintain the pur- suit with nil haste The captain un- derstood how we felt and tried to pacify us by friendly conversation.

CHAPTE V.

Not far from Sommepy. the French rear guard stopped again. Four bat teries of our artillery were brought Into position and our company, along with machine guns. were ordered to protect the artillery. The artillery of fcers did not think this sufficient pro- teetion because the airplanes had dis covered the presence of strong French cavalry detachments and a cavalry att tack was suspected. However. a stronger guard could not be provided and there was nothing to be done but take our position and make the best of the situation. We dug ourselves In to the right and left of the batteries, in field of small pine trees. The ma chine guns were set up and supplied with ammunition. We were then given instructions as to what to do in the event of cavalry attack. An old major of infantry, with white hair, took command. Our unit was placed with the infantry. but our brave of fiCers disappeared suddenly. To them the defense of the fatherland was the business of a private. Since We had been assigned to assist infantry, our officers considered themselves super flueus and took French leave.
 Our instructions were as follows: In the event Of cavalry attack, every thing must be quiet. The gun must be pointed but hidden The machine gun must not be fired until the major fin command gives the order. Then there must be a lively quick fire. Our batteries fired violently at a biplane flying high over them which gave sig. nals with star shells which were read only hy the observer.
 This state of afrairs affects only pioneer officers Who. when their units are attached to infantry or chas- seur divisions. scarcely ever take part in battle, This was the case with our officers during my whole war ea- recr. They remained far away from the gunfire In comfortable security. This Is also the case with many in- fantry captains and almost all higher officers Majors. colonelS, etc. never take part in sterming attack, was told. and several times l observed thls myself
 But the expected attack did not come, the enemy's Infantry was not 10 be seen. We prepared to resume our march and were all ready to move when the order came to bivouac. The spot where we were to rest was as usual fixed by the staff so that they knew where to find us at any time Hardly had we reached the place when our field kitchen. which we supposed had been lost. appeared as if it had come out of the ground. Those in charge of the field kitchen had re ceived no knowledge of our losses of the last few days and had cooked for the old number. They were greatly surprised on seeing instead of a hrav company of strong pioneers" lot of ragged, exhausted crushed humar shadows. We were given soup, bread
