Black Jack,
Poker Taboo

An order has been issued from
the office of Brig. Gen. Frederick
S. Foltz, prohibiting gambling in
any form at Camp Lewis. Stud
poker, penny ante, black jack and
faro are to go by the boards.
Gambling undermines the NOR
ale of the command and cannot
be tolerated." says the order.
1t is understood that among the
causes of the edict are a number
of cases of embezzlement of funds
and thefts among the soldiers, and
the recent disappearance of mail.

RAIDERS
GLAD TO
BE BACK

Paul RAIDER, former Tacoma
football star, famous evangelist
and pastor of the big Moody ta5er-
nacle in Chicago, loves Tacoma.
He said so Wednesday when he ar
rived at the Tacoma hotel.
He loves Tacoma just as much
as he did in those old days dozen
or more years ago when on the
gridiron he wiped up every husky
eleven east and west of the noun
tains.
IF | had my choice of homes,
Tacoma would be the place" he
said.
ALSO, he's just as much of n
fighter as he was when he plowed
thru the line for Puget Sound uni
yersity. He's a fighter from his
big feet up the feet . TO the top
of his head. And his q pounds
are hard to stop.
After Huns Now.
Right now he's fighting to lick
the Huns. And he figures the
best way to do it is to fight OH
Gods team.
He has figured it out somehow
that God is the person who's go
iifg to win this war. And that IS
the chief reason why he is making
the rounds of the environments OF
the country giving his address
God in the Trenches"
God has been left out of the
, reckoning in this war so far he
explained Wednesday. THE kais-
err claims to have Him on his side;
but really what the kaiser claims
is that he is god himself.
Religious Awakening.
every nation that has tried to
stand on anything but Cod has
fallen. God is going to decide
this war
America is in the midst of a
great religious awakening, RAIDER
declared. II have noticed it ev-
erywhere I have gone. There is
a keen interest in the future life.
At the New York city library l in
uuired as to what book was in
greatest demand. | found 1t was
the volumne, Is Death the End?'
This is a question that must
be answered"
RAIDER, in his return to Taco
wa, was like boy returning
home from school.
One of the first persons he met
and talked to at his hotel We'd
nesday morning was Rev. Joseph
p. Marlatt, pastor of the Mason
M. E. church.
Wife "a Tacoma Girl.
Marlatt was the man who tied
the wedding knot for RAIDER and
Mrs. RAIDER.
Mrs. RAIDER, by the way, form
erly was a Tacoma girl-Mary
Caughrar.
And so another one Of the first
things RAIDER did Wednesday was
to pay a visit to his mother-in-
law, Mrs. Mary A. Caughran, 324
Tacoma ave.
RAIDER is accompanied by Arthur
Mckee, tenor singer; DR.. T. M.
Griffith, and f. C. Graves of Port
land.
RAIDER spoke to the members
council of the Commercial club
Wednesday noon.
Wednesday night he will speak
at a public meeting in the First
Methodist church. He will ad-
dress the weekly meeting of the
Rotary club and later a meeting
of the Parent-Teacher association
Thursday. Thursday and Friday
:. evenings he will speak at Camp
Lewis.

The G. s o. Canal Under Federal
Control.
From Washington Star.

From Washington Star.
The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, con-
Meeting Washington with the coal fields
at Cumberland. Nd. formally was taken
over last Friday by the new division of
inland waterways of the railroad admin
istration, successor to the inland water
ways committee.
Five government owned barees, built at
Elizabeth City, N. c.. will be towed to
Washington this week and placed in SER
vice on the canal. Five other boats will
come up later in the month.
&. A. Tomlinson. member of the former
inland waterways committee and recently
federal manager of the New York and New
Jersey canals. who has been appointed
director of the inland waterways division,
has arrived in Washington and taken
charge of the Office at 9th and G streets.
Development of inland waterway trans
portation is expected to proceed rapidly
from now on. The powers of the new di-
vision will be much greater than those of
the committee. which served in an advi-
sorry capacity.
While the committee was in existence
it brought the New York State barge. Ches-
apeake and Ohio. Delaware and Raritan
canals, the Mississippi from St. Louis to New
Orleans, and the Warrior river and COM
municating waterways under federal con-
troll
1t is expected that other canals and
waterways will be added to this list by the
new division, which will at once consider
plans for greatly increasing inland water
way transportation.
Col. John Stewart. who was major in
the Marine Corps of the Army at the time
he was assigned to the inland waterways
following its creation. last Feb
ruary, has gone to North Carolina. where
he will arrange for the towing of the gov
eminent barees to Washington.
Col. Stewart made an inspection Of the
canal by motorcycle last spring. and 1t was
due to his recommendations that the gov
eminent decided to put this waterway to
work as a coal carrier during the war. But
for the governments action the canal, 1t is
would have been beset by diff
,ulties that would have made its opera
lion this year practically impossible.
Eighty-four boats are now being operated
On the canal and it is planned to keep
shipments moving until the middle of De-
,ember II weather conditions permit. The
season ended in November last year.
There Is a probability that the govern
nent will make other additions to the canal
ieet next spring.

For MY Sweetheart.

Written by Private Geo. W. Burroughs
Of the 33lst Company, F. r. S.. now on his
way to France.
While the shot and shells are screaming.
And the bullets flying fast
am thinking Of you. sweetheart.
OF our good times Of the past.
For your cheering smiles still linger,
AS on that eventful day,
When our fondest dreams were shattered
And proudly marched away.
You gave me strength for duty.
In this fight for freedoms sake.
For your spirit, when we parted.
Left fond memories in its wake.
You were brave and tried to cheer me,
You laughed your tears away.
You joked about the future
When Id come home to stay.
When nothing more could part us,
We'd live joyous life,
In vine-clad little cottage.
Free from trouble and from strife.
But the bloody Hun has challenged
The flag we love so dear.
And must stay until he's beaten
Before come back to you.
In the trench we suffer hardships.
With its coolies. rats and mud.
And the ceaseless whine of shrapnel,
That takes its toll Of blood.
But we bear our burdens gladly.
We can smile and suffer too.
For there's millions of US fighting
For sweethearts at home like you.
When the dirty Huns have challenged.
And the Kaiser's ranks deplete.
When the streets Of Berlin echo
With the rythm Of Yankee feet,
Then the happy thought will strike US
That we've striven not In vain.
And we will greet with cheer
The order that sends us home again.
When each man that left girl at home
Will know. down in his heart.
She really won the battle.
For she bravely did her part.
So it goes through countless ages.
You will find each battle won
By the cheering little sweetheart
That backs the man behind the gun.

Y. W. G. A, Worker From Mexico
Coming

Miss Eliza Cortez. one of the foreign
secretaries OF the Young Women's Chris
tian Association of South America. is now
in the United States. Miss COrtez, who is
Mexican by birth, is going through the
Southern States on a tour that will include
Maryland, her object being to tell the peo-
pie of this country something of the con-
ditions that prevail in South America. She
will spend the next two months in the
United States. returning to Buenos Aires
in November.
1T is my duty" Miss Cortez said to a
representative Of a paper. at her head
quarters in New York last week. ITO ex-
plain to the women of the United States
that Mexicans are not all bandits. Many
descendants from old distinguished fami-
lies, refugees from my country, are now
living in the Southern States. They are
very poor. There are women who have
never worked before and they are inteui-
gent and refined. 1t will not be difficult
for them to understand the United States.
1.-THE poems in our old Southern country
are a lower class and they are very ienor-
ant They are like children We must
be patient and try to show them what it
is that women in Mexico must stand for
today.
I'VE must remember that German propa-
eanda has been very busy among them.
1t is a propaganda that is trying to con-
vince women Of this Southern country
that the United States wishes to enslave
Mexico"
