COULDN'T WRITE HIS NAME
Young Man From Illinois Who HaI
Never Been to School More Than
Two Weeks In Hands
Of Y. VI. c. A.

Camp Zachary Taylor, Louisville,
KY, June 13-In the service Of Uncle
Sam at Camp Thomas, KY, there is a
young man, drafted for service at
Camp Taylor and later transferred,
who when he was asked by the clerk
of the exemption board to "Please sign
your name here" replied:
81 never had no chance"
1t is unfortunate that 1t took
worldwide war to give this young
man his opportunity, and that he had
to enter an army training camp in Or
der to take his place among the young
men of the community.
His father is a wealthy farmer in
Illinois, owning 600 acres of land
within twenty-five miles of st. Louis.
This young man at the age of over q
had never spent a night away from
home, had never seen a moving pic
ture, how, and had never been on
railway train or trolley car although
the suburban lines cross his county
not far from his own home. Physical
ly he was as sound as a dollar, but
mentally he was undeyeloped never
having attended school two entire
weeks in succession.
Yes, he is in an army camp today,
but you would not recognize him from
the description given above. Retic
ent, ignorant and bashful he did not
respond readily to the invitation of
the Y. NJ. c. A. secretary to take part
in the programs arranged for the SOL
diers in the "Y" buildings, but little
by little this was overcome. With
others he was induced to join one of
the illiterate classes conducted by the
Educational Secretary, and became an
enthusiastic student He put in much
of his time while off duty reading
magazines and newspapers, and when
he wrote his first letter back home"
there was not happier boy in the
camp. He attended Bible study class
es, took part in the singing and ath-
letic games, and in other ways took
advantage of the opportunities Of
fered to soldiers by this association
whose one aim is to serve those VINO
are serving Uncle Sam and help them
to win the war
When the victorious armies of the
United States come marching home
he will be able to take his place in
the community better man, broaden
ed, developed, experienced, and his
fathers acres will descend to
worthy heir.
The case of Henry Kuhlmann is not
isolated. There are many such who
are mentally and physically made FIT
to Fight" and prepared to live by the
Y. NJ. c. A.

NOW IS The Time
For War Gardener to Utilize Early
Crop Space For Later
Vegetables.
City War Garden Advisor Dieterich

City War Garden Advisor Dieterich
says:
1T is time now to begin filling up
the vacant places as they come af-
ter the early crops. Corn and beans
for winter use can be planted from
now on. Also for late potatoes for
one who has the room should be
planted as the early crop may not
turn out as we expected.
Tomatoes for canning should not
be overlooked. If these have not been
planted it will be best to do so at
once than they will be ready for Sep
TENDER canning. We must fill up all
cans this year as fruit will not be
very plentiful
Peaches in the state of Michigan
and other fruit growing sections will
be off crop on account of the hard
freezing last winter and the same is
true in this section, as most all of
the pears and peaches and most 9TH
err fruits have been killed. so we must
make up the loss of filling all jars
and cans with vegetables from the
garden. Do not wait until the last
week to do your canning, but use up
Iall surplus vegetables as they come
on, for we do not know how the crops
will be in September, for we may have
dry summer.
Watch the insects. Do not let them
destroy your crop but kill them off as
soon as they appear. The White But
terfy you see flying about your gar
den is the one that lays the egg for
the cabbage worm, so kill them off if
possible
Any information you may wish
about your growing crop, call up the

London, Sept 27-The British at

Haig's maximum advance today was
three miles. The Hindenburg outpost
defenses were crossed at several
points. At o'clock this afternoon
the British line ran southwest Of
Gouzeaucourt, east OF Beaucamp, west
of Marcoing and east of Graincourt,

Anneux and Cantaing and east OF
Bourbon and the Bourbon wood, a
thousand yards west Of Raillencour,
and along the road to Marcoing. 1t is
not known whether the British or the
Germans hold Marcoing.
The capture of Bourbon is of the
highest importance, because it is the
bulwark Of Cambrai. 1t was captured

bring about such a situation as il was
hoped to create through the recent
proposal from Austria. The allies all
along have indicated a determination
to deal separately and Independently
with each of the countries with which
they are at war when il came to peace
negotiations and if Bulgaria can meet
the test of sincerity the time has
come when she may find safety in
dropping out of the alliance with the
central powers.

commanding in Macedonia that the
peace ENJOYS were the bulgarian
minister of finance and the general
commanding the second army.
Military men already are thinking
of what might be done with both
Bulgaria and Turkey out of the wal
and under allied surveillance. Entente
forces might open the Dardanelles
and the Black sea to their warships
and transports and prepare the way
for the re-establishment of the armies
on the eastern front. thus surround
ing the Germanic power with an iron
ring comparable to that through
which they broke when Russia col
lapsed. 1t is hoped that Rumania
may again take a hand with a reor-
ganized army, thousands of Jugo-
Slavs may be counted upto desert
Austria and join the entente forces
and these, elements with additions
from the disaffected Ukraine and
other sources may furnish material
