Our wife's been camouflaging US
for about ten days. along the meat
line, with an old hogs head. She's
turned it around, inside out, upside

We know of a certain postmaster,
not thousand miles away. who on
seeing a lady coming into the Office
for her mail, got up, took said mail
"outen" the box, stuck it under one
arm, turned around for something
else before the lady came to the
general delivery window and when
she called for mail was told that
there was nothing for her. The
lady protested that there should be.
The absented minded P. M. looked
again and of course found nothing.
so the lady was forced to 60 homo
mailless. Sometime afterward. the
P. MS wife, or some other mans
wife, asked him what that was he
was carrying around under his wing.
Imagine how he looked when he re-
marked, "Ill be consarned--if that
amt that girls mail"
Bat Nall broke out the other day.

and another, we've heard IL men. 8
women and three little boys say, that
if they had to have smallpox at all.
they prayed the Good Lord to deliver
them from smallpox via the Bat Nall
route. To all of which. yours truly
says amen.

J A letter has just been received by

No word had been received from Miss
LauRhlin since March 1917. Her sta
ton was near Lebanon, where famine
and all kinds Of war distress has been
reported, and much anxious thought
has been entertained as regards her
safety and welfare. She writes that
she had enough food, not altogether
everything desirable, and enough
clothes to be passable. and that she
had not suffered anything dreadful.
She mentioned the very high prices
and that during the time she had not
received money she had been able to
borrow money from the American
Press that loaned money to missions.
This ten-kish was so depressed in
value that one ten-kish pound had
only the value of one American dol
lar, and she could not live on less
than 80 lbs per month. She wrote
Of some sickness endured and men

WASHING THE PoILu
a Bowdoin College Professor Engag-

$50
In an old garrison town over on the
Lorraine front is a Foyer du Soldiat
in charge of Professor George r.
Files of Bowdoin College, Brunswick,
Me-, who is taking an indefinite leave
of absence to serve as "Y" secretary
in France. He is now engaged in
pursuits as different from his old as
they were varied, and his specially is
exposing the French to the bath habit.
He claims that once exposed they
catch the disease-or habit-quite
rapidly. u4
1t is perfectly true that the French
never acquired the bath habit as
Anglo Saxons know it. In fact, the
traditional French answer to the ac-
cusation runs something like this:
Given a limited quantity of water a
British Tommy will take off his dirty
shirt. battle, and put on the unwashed
shirt; the Poilu will wash his shirt,
rub off his body, and don the cleansed
shirt. Mr. Files decided that the
French soldier, as he observed him in
the mass, needed bath. He was not
prepared to battle him-7regiment
upon rcgiment-in wash tub. Mel
Their was he disposed TO dodge the is
sue.
Through clever pursuasion and eX-
PLANTATION nc induced the French Com
mandant. to outfit big room with
score or more of showers in the shape
Of a "U," an individual shower,for the
officers, q big water heater, and dres-
sing rooms. =
When a new company comes to
town the problem arises of leading 1t
to water. The Poilu always makes
for the sign of the Red Triangle IN
the leisure hour, just as does his bro
Their. the Yank. And when the Pollu
sees his ally disport himself in ecstasy
under the rushing water, his love oil
fun makes him an easy victim to MI
Files suggestion. -

quickly find it pleasant as well as re-
freshing. a.
