TEN CHILDREN OF
CARLSBAD ADOPT
4 YEAR Old GIRL
Little French Maiden to Be
Cared for at Home Through
Generosity Of Youngsters
Living in PecoS Valley

SPECIAL coRREsPohpEhcg TO MORNING JOURNAL
Carlsbad, n. NJ. Nov, 20.-The little
Augustine Draux will be well pleased.
They are indeed of a warmth and of
a pretty fabric, these clothes that the
members of a Carlsbad club have sent
TO the child
Augustine. who is four years old,
has neve~ seen her father. He was
killed in the fist three months of
fighting against the Germans. His
widow. the young Madam DrauX, lives
n the province of Calovdos, north
vest of Paris on the sea coast where
in clear days she can look across the
channel and see the chalk cliffs of
Albion. Madam DrauX works very
hard from morning till night to pro-
vide !; home for the little one, but it
would not be possible were it not for
these ten children in theEtats Unis,
who have promised to pay seventy
three dollars in two years, so that lit
tie Augustine may safely stay with
her mamma.
Last spring ten children of a class
taught by Mrs f.. j. Stringham,
learned through a Overwhelmingly fun
ny paper" which is Life" that they
could care for little French girl.
They choose the little Augustine, and
they alone, and no one lse in all these
United states, is caring for her. They
have sent her thirty dollars out of the
seventy-three necessary in two years,
and this week the teacher and the
club received enough money from out
side sources to buy fine lot of
clothes for her. The Peoples company
gave a liberal discount on the pur-
chase. and now Augustine will be
warmly dressed. The cap is blue,
and the sweater is blue and white
There will be cloth for two dresses
| and snug underwear for the wind that
blows from the seas is very bitter.
The mother of little Augustine has
sent her picture to the Carlsbad Club.
And with the letter came few lines,
written by the child. The writing is
beautifully done for girl of four.
The hoy who has paid twelve out of
the seventy is very proud of it.

HOW TO FIGHT
SPANISH INFLUENZA
By DIR. L. w. BOWERS.

Is Y DIV. IL. w. BOW EMS.
Avoid crowds, coughs and towards,
but fear neither germs nor Germans!
Keep the system in good order. take
plenty of exercise in the fresh air and
practice cleanliness. Remember a
clean mouth. a clean skin. and clean
bowels are a protecting armor against
disease. To keep the liver and bowels
regular and to carry away the poisons
within, it is best to take vegetable
pill every other day. made up of May
apple, aloes. jalap. and sugar-coated,
to be had at most drug stores. known
as DIR, Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. If
there is sudden onset of what APP
pears like hard cold. one should go
to bed. wrap warm. take a hot mus
tard foot-bath and drink copiousiy of
hot lemonade. If pain develops in
head or back. ask the druggist for
Anuric (anti-uric) tablets. These will
flush the bladder and kidneys and
carry off poisonous germs. To control
the pains and aches take one Anuric
tablet every two hours, with frequent
drinks of lemonade. The pneumonia
appears in a most treacherous way,
when the Influenza victim is appar-
emily recovering and anxious to leave
his bed In recovering from bad
attack Of influenza or pneumonia the
system should be built up with good
herbal tonic. such as DIR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, made with

GERMANS JOYFUL
LEAVING BELGIUM
FOR FATHERLAND
BY III. w. Smith.

Especial Gable to the New York World
and Albuquerque Journal.)
(By Special Arrangement with the
London Daily News)
I Rotterdam, Nov. II delayed in
transmission 1.-The spirit of revolu-
ton has produced scenes of the most
unIooked-fo character as the Ger
man army has been sweeping back
out of Belgium. For instance, the few
German soldiers left in Selzaete
danced with the first of the Belgian
troops to arrive there.
In Antwerp, news of the kaisers
abdication was known on Saturday.
On the following day a soldiers and
workmens council was organized
and the red flag was flown, with Ger
man colors on one side of it and Bel
gian colors on the other. Soldiers
wore red arntfets and carried red
flowers in their rifle barrels.
After slight resistance by the
guards. the prisons were opened and
the military and political prisoners
were liberated. Among them was
British soldier. The Germans hoisted
him shoulder high and carried him out
with triumphant cheers.
All was quiet in Brussels until Sun
dav afternoon, when, as it spontane-
ously, great numbers of German
troops formed procession and, with
out arms, began to march through the
city. Red flags and even the French
Tricolor were carried in the ranks.
After period of bewilderment, where
it was realized what this meant, Bel
gian civilians along the sidewalks
started cheering. with cries of Long
live Belgium. Long live France"
Banners and handkerchiefs were
waved from balconies and windows
and there was a tremendous outburst
of universal JOY. and relief from the
pent-up feelings Of the war found lex-
preston on every face and from every
tongue. In one place German SOL
der made sneech from motor car.
Comrades" he said "a republic
has been proclaimed. Let us fight no
more: let there be no more shooting"
His words were greeted with the
waving of red flags, great roar OF
cheering and thunderous "Hochsi'
from his fellows.

CAP TAIN PERS|US
EXPOSES FAILURE
OF GERMAN NAVY
Naval Expert Says German
Sailors Performed Great
Service to Country in Re-
fusing to Give Allies Battle,

London, Nov. 90 British wireless
Service )--Captain Persius, the Ger
man naval critic publishes in the Ber-
lin Tageblattan article containing rev.
Citations regarding the German fleet.
He says the hope that the German
fleet would be able in a second Skag-
errak battle to beat the British fleet
rested upon the bluff and lies of the
naval authorities.
In August, 1914, Germany had
about one million tonnage in war
ships the writer points out, while
Great Britain had more than double
that tonnage, In the Skagerrak bat
tie he declares, the German fleet was
saved from destruction partly by good
leadership and partly by favorable
weather conditions. AS it was, the
losses of the German fleet were enor-
nous, and on June /, Captain Perslus
says. it was clear that the SkaGerrak
battle must be the only general naval
engagement of the war.
On all sides, continues the writer,
Admiral Won Tirpiz was advised TO
construct only submarines, but he re-
NAMED obstinate, On October /,
Obs y several members of the
reichstag made an earnest appeal to
the army commandment to the naval
staff--with the result that an order
was issued terminating the construe-
ton of battleships in order that the
material might be used for the max
ing of U-boats. In the meantime, SO
greatly a scarcity of material had
arisen that it became necessary to dis
arm a number of the battleships and
take the metal. In this manner. at
the beginning os 1916 Stwenty-three
battleships had been disarmed, as well
as one newly built cruiser.
Many ships Lost.
At the beginning of this year, Cap
tain Persius states. the German navy
consisted only of dreadnaughts and
battleships of the Helgoland, Kaiser
and Markgraf types and some few
battle cruisers. All the ships which
Won Tirpitz had constructed from
1897 to 1906, at a cost of innumerable
millions had been destroyed, and the
U-boats that had been constructed had
proved unable to fight against Eng
fish warships
In 1917. he states, eighty-three sub
marines were constructed, while sixty
six were destroyed. In April, 1917
Germany had 126 submarines and in
october, 146. In February, 1918, she
had 1876 and in June of the same year.
f13. according to Captain Persius' fig
ures.
Or.y a small percentage of these
submarines were active by operating
a. any given time. Captain Persius de-
clares. In January. 1917, for in
stance. when conditions were favorable
for submarine work, only II per cent
were active while 30 per cent were in
harbor. 80 per cent under repairs and
90 per cent 'incapacitated.'
In the last months he reveals. 1t
was very difficult to get men for sub
marine work, as experienced seamen
