The Boone News-Eepublican is not
the only paper in the state published
by women. The Iowa State Student
the official paper of the Iowa State
College. is now being published anu
edited by girls, going the Boone
county paper enc better.
Prof. O'Brien is the only man as
sisting in publishing the Student.
The work of gathering news. solicit
ing advertising and subscriptions ana
the circulating of the paper. is ali done
BY women. When the school term
opened. one issue of the. paper was
published by the men chosen last year
Since that time, however, those OH
cially accredited with the work nave
been under quarantine and the girls
have not missed an issue.
No doubt the gins DO their work
as well as the men lid and are de-
veloping the same interest and the
same loyalty to the enterprise which
is the most unvarying rule with male
employees. Whatever their faults may
De. and they are few, they are ready
TO fight for the paper which Is rapidly
gaining in popularity.

REFLECT JUDGES PRESTON AND GAYNoR.

As election day approaches the non
partisan judiciary ticket for the cleo
ton Of judges of the supreme court is
giving trouble again. Nobody is re-
sponsible for the selection of candi
dates. no party carries any RESPONSE
bilty for their election and the fear is
that nobody will care who is elected
until he finds a serious case before the
late.
Judge Preston. from Oskaloosa, a
Poweshiek county product and an able
judge from the district bench of the
Poweshiek- Mahaska Jasper district is
seeking reelection and he deserves it.
The Oskaloosa Herald says that he
made good as county attorney and for
ten years as district judge. that he
holds the respect of everyone down
there. Judge Preston has held but one
term as supreme judge, is able. Wig
orous and efficient and should be re-
elected.
Judge Gaynor. Of Le Mare. is also one
Of the able judges Of our supreme court
seeking reelection. Both Preston and
Gaynor should be selected.
The judiciary ticket can be found on
the ballot If the voter will hunt for it
but it will be a wise man who can re-
Preston and GaynOr are the men who
have made good on the present supreme
court and ought to be reelected.

"a FIRST CLASS SOLDIER"
BY JAMES M. THOMSON
Publisher of the New Orleans Item

A soldiers work is a mans work.
The best men in America are the men
In uniform. Next to these come the
men who would like TO be in uniform.
and generally speaking the men in
America who would not be willing to
don their uniform and take turn at
it. provided they are fitted for a SOL
dier's work by health, age and train
ing. are not real Americans and are
not worth very much.
For nearly twenty years have been
, employing other people. l don't be-
heve that there is one of these men
who would not have been better off
and a better man for soldiers train
ing. For military life teaches . man
self respect, it teaches him to take
orders and obey them and thus it fits
him to give orders. The only rnsn |
think of just now who doesn't take
orders and obey some one is the
Kaiser, and if he lives long enough he
will learn Some folks profess 20 feel
sorry for the boys who are going into
the service and may have to face bull

every man who is worth his salt has a

THE HONOR OF THE AMERICAN ARMY

When that grim old warrior, Gen
in the China campaign, his attention
was called to the fact that certain
of the ALLIED troops were footing.
Particularly was his attention called
to the fact that astronomical instru-
ments of great value had disappeared
from an observatory.
With all the vigor he could sum-
mon, General Chaffee sent a protest
to the field commander, q German
general, Having been in the field
with the German troops, the Aneri-
can commander probably thought the
direct route was the best. although
military etiquette demanded that the
protest be addressed to the senior Of
i1cer present.
1t struck General Chaffee that 1t
was scarcely consistent with the
avowed ideals of the armies OF the
great powers that they Should permit
their men to pillage. But it was a
new line of reasoning to the Hun com
mander, who very CURLY aeknowl-
edged receipt of the protest and de-
m6uuSO 10 KNOW why IL AAO Aol U6Sn
written in German.
Because of the international favor
to the incident, the authorities in
Washington were compelled to ad-
minister q mild rebuke. to General
Chaffee, not because OF the stand he
had taken but because his righteous
Indignation had led him TO such Wig
aross statement Bat General Chat
fee was rewarded later with the
highest honors that could be be-
slowed by grateful government. and
among his priced possessions for the
! rest of his life was letter from the
I then Vice-President Theodore Roose-
welt. telling him that the Republic
would always be grateful to him, not
alone for his achievements but for
what the American soldiers had not
been permitted to do.
When the indemnities were paid,
the American nation showed that it
counted some things far more pre-

good cause, fight and risk his life, if
need be, is poor sort of fellow, who
is not fit TO hold much of a Job any
where, so we look forward not only to
the time when the men who are secrr-
Jag the benefit of army training will
be in demand for places of response
bility in civil life, but toward the time
when this training will fit many of
them for taking over the conduct of
the great affairs of the country.
The saying that success needs no
explanation" is not altogether true:
but 1t 10 certainly true that the man in
uniform has no explanation to make
as 10 how he is serving his country.
Most men who are not in uniform feel
even now that some explanation is
necessary.
In the army as elsewhere there is
bound to be difference among men.
So great deal depends on how good
q record man makes as soldier. All
Of my life / have heard veterans of
the Civil War use the expression in
describing some man and he was a
hrst-ciass soldier" In the years TO
come that kind of recommendation
is going to determine the careers of
h1ndreds of thousands of the men
who are going to run America. And
that is right The men who are going
to run this war right can run the coun-
try right.

cious than money. The amount
awarded to the country was not
placed in the Golfers of the nation;
but was held as a trust for the edu-
cation OF Chinese students at Amer
lean universities.
These are two incidents in the mill
tary history OF sthe United States of
which we, the citizens, have reason
to be proud.
In Flanders another chapter has
been added
We have gone to the relief of
all that we have and are. In full
filment of our pledge we have placed
great army In the country of our
Ally. We have ruined fields by our
military operation; have occupied
houses; have RACED forests-all this,
mind you, in behalf OF France.
The fields were owned by individ-
ual farmers: so were the houses and
so, too, were the forests The fields,
the houses and the forests were all
that the French peasants and land
owners had. II the Hun CONQUERED
they would be swept away.
Going to Frances aid in an expe-
dition such as we have undertaken
it might have been reasoned that the
burden of paying for what we seized
would rest upon our Ally. But our
government did not so reason. GEN
eral Pershing sent to Washington a
request for the passage of legislation
reimbursing everyone whose proper
ty had been taken. To reinforce his
argument, our Field Commander said
that any action short of this would
make our army suffer by comparison
with the British, which had paid value
for value for everything taken or de-
stroyed.
Action was prompt. The Congress
enacted the needed legislation. But
1t is with pardonable pride that we
who are Americans recall that our
action in the China campaign set a
standard recognized and adopted by
the British, that is thoroughly in
keeping with the high aims we have
proclaimed. ~.yN~
