BOYS TO MARCH THROUGH HOME
 TOWN STREETS

Camp Devens, Aver, Mass, March 22.-Requests for the sending of men from the camp to take part in parades for the third Liberty loan drive, which begins April 6, came to headquarters from all parts of New England in great numbers in the last few days It was announced today that Battery B of the 3O1st Field Artillery, a bat tery composed of Maiden boys, will parade in their home city in Liberty Loan Day." Machine Gun Company F, 301st, will parade in East Boston on that day. Several other places will have their boys home flor April pa rades.
 According to the general sentiment expressed it is felt that. the home boys marching through the streets of their own home town will be the biggest incentive possible to put over the new drive. The cities and towns which have sent requests, realizing the heavy expense to the government of sending te men home, have offered to bear all expenses. "Boston's Own," the 3O1st, is anxiously waiting to hear if she will parade as @ regiment.

RUSSIAN PEOPLE WERE DOPED BY
 GERMAN POISON

Look back all through history, from the story of the Trojan horse back to the last development in mili- tary science. Where will you find such a remarkable and stupendous achievement as the doping of the Rus sian people by German poison!
 It beats all explosives, artillery, military formations, schemes of strate- gic attack. If by the work of spies and propaganda, you can make 1O,- 100000 soldiers, fairly we'll equipped with munitions, lay down their guns and sneak home like whipped yellow CUTS, you have done something that beats anything the military scientists ever taught.
 That is just what the Germans have done to the Russian army.
 It makes the German power the most terrible force that has appeared in the history of the world. The am- bitions and achievements of Napoleon Bonaparte were mere amateur play compared with it. Napoleon had to fight for his victories. The Ger mans win theirs by the administration of dope in the form of lies that will deceive credulous people.
 Having achieved such a marvellous triumph, it is natural that the Ger mans should devote their best ener- gies from. now on to administering dope to her other foes. Germany's s most dangerous army is not in the field. It is the vast force of spies and plotters all over the world, slip ping their stupefying dope into mems ears and hearts. We get the evidence of it almost every day.
 There can be no safety in the world until this stealthy and insidious power l is beaten down. Her people must be

BUILD SHELTERS FROM AIR RAIDS
 HOUSING 10000

London, March 22-Air-raid shell ters for 10000 persons are being con- structed by the residents of Edmon- ton, one of the outlying London boroughs. The borough contains mainly working-class dwellings of sufficiently solid construction to be classed as proper afraid shelters. So the residents appointed a local civil engineer to take charge of the work, and began to dig shelters of the cy- clone-cellar type in all parts of the borough.
 The government gave them 10000 sandbags and. they expect shortly to be able to shelter 10000 persons. In most cases, the excavations were made in vacant lots or back gardens, bolstered by wooden beams and rail road ties, which were then covered with earth and sod and finally roofed over with sandbags. Each shelter will accommodate at least five families Other shelters are in protected rail- way culverts and entertainments. Each will be provided with lighting, seats and a small stove so that tea can be served comfortably to those waiting for the "All Clear signal"
 President Wilson signed the rail- road control bill, bringing railroads under government operation and con- trol for 20 months after the war.

made to see that they cannot control the world by lies. And we must be on our guard every minute against the poison in our own neighborhood. The false story about disasters to our sol diers, of unjust treatment in the camps, of the impossibility of ever beating Germany, the indictments to disregard of the food program, ef- forts to discourage war work in a thousand ways, these are the forms the dope most frequently takes with us.

ASSIST IS REMARKABLE CITY
Shows How Influence Of Ono Man
With an Idea Can Persist Through
the Centuries.

A remarkable city Is Assist, show
Ing how the influence of II man with
an idea can persist down the changing
centuries. 1t is seven hundred years
and more since st. Francis lived and
died here, and yet today Assist Is lit
tie besides the city of st. Francis. His
name lends 1t whatever fame and i'm.
portance 1t may have, and something
Of his kindly spirit seems to hang
about 1t still.
Assist is a bnre little Italian hill
town. built OF dull stone, with narrow
winding rocky streets, looking out over
one OF the fairest prospects in nll
Italy. Here st. Francis was born Of
rich parents, here he led an idle
spendthrlft youth. and here he was
suddenly seized with the idea of uni.
versal brotherhood and the necessity
for poverty. Here he founded tn,
Franciscan order, praying that Its dis
tinctive sign might be "never to pos
sess anything under the sun and to
have no means of living save by beg
cling"
He carried ont his rule In strlctesi
practice, living In hut Of reeds built
where now stands the church Of st
Mary OF the Angels. He felt II great
love for nll things created, so that Ii,
hailed the sun us his brother and
preached to the fishes. All of these in
cidents In his career and many 9th
ers are set forth In noble frescoes b!
