The honor of breaking through the

FROM CAMP FUNSTON.

The following splendid letter from
our young friend DR.. Phil. B. Johnson
is too good to keep SO we give it to
our readers with the assurance that
Phillip will do all he says-and more.
Dear Editor:
Amid a vast realm epitomizing uni
versal diffusion of human beings,
Kansas City boys are standing head
and shoulders above the rest, from a
moral, physical and mental stand
point. All that is necessary is for the
order to be given we do the rest. AS
a whole our boys are making a good
showing, many however have worship
ped so long before the shrine of dis
sipation that it will take training and
discipline to make men out of them.
The Y. M. G. A. and Knights of Co.
lumbus are doing excellent work. l
have gotten to the point where l can
appreciate what Uncle Sam is doing
for our people; via this melting pot
will come a race that will go forth
and do good for themselves and hui
manity. IT'S hot as hell hinges, the
wind always windy, the rain is al
ways dafp, but we are getting use to
it. One round of pleasure from Re-
veille to Taps. 1 have charge Of a
squad of st. Joe boys, bright eyed,
alert and sensible, needless to say
they will make good as well as the
Corporal. Philip Johnson

night and will leave tomorrow for
Washington to ask the government to
restore service on the line and to inter-

The principal contention against aban-

by the delegation is that the govern

two parallel lines across the most haz-
ardous territory for railway lines in
this country, the members of the dele

ONE SORT OF
INVESTIGATION
CONTINUED from page ~

her grandparents and her parents all
spent their last days in this country,
which was her country, that her son
WAS now in the U. s. service and that
she hoped for final victory for the U.
8. forces. She said she had only the
kindliest feeling for Mr.. Thompson,
but that he was very much excited
when he was in her store and that she
was sure he misrepresented her in tell
ing the story.
Mr.. Fravert then told how Thompson
pad recited the story to him and how
pc had reproached him for exciting the
woman unnecessarily. He said no
then went to Mrs. Walter and told he-
tAat BY her laxity Of speech she had
gotten into trouble, that she had eS-
planned the matter to him and declared
that she meant no harm and that she
bad promised him that she would aot
hereafter discuss war topics, and Mr..
Efavert said go far as he knew she had
hapt her word.
Fhe ahsri6 and Dr.. Horan both stat
q thst the government had in fre-
asent instructions discouraged agitat-
hg those citizens of German birth or
drawing them into q controversy on
1ar questions, saying it was better to
Aseour&ge them to be good citizens
Rther than to dare them to become an.
eFehists. With this thought in visr he
anid he had preferred to take Mrs.
Walter At her word, and it was only
xseently, since he had heard so much
efiticisn Of his conduct that he thought
y would be better for all concerned
Nat . full investigation should be
made Of the matter, and the public ad-
vised where the criticism came from.
To this Thompson retorted that it was
very plain that Fravert would never
have taken any action in the matter
had not he, Thompson, entered the race
against Fravert for the Democratic
nomination for sheriff. Fravert de.
elared that at the time Thompson first
told him the story Thompson begged
him to drop the matter and not cause
Mrs. Walter any trouble. This Thomp-
son denied, and with little more ora
torical sharpshooting the battle WAS
declared over, with no casualties .s-
ported ON either side, but the saluta-
tion "Kamsrad" was not audibly svi.
