The retreat of the Hun is on terri
torial scale not unlike huge fan in
process of closing up. The American
armies are the handle Of the fan be-
fore Metz. which is the pivot of the
Hun turning movement. Were this
handle to crumple up, instant demor.
alization would follow in the retreating
ranks of the German armies. He is
throwing his best troops against the
Yanks in his endeavors to keep the
handle of the fan from breaking. You
can depend upon it that when Foch
gives the word. which will be given
at the proper time, the handle will be
broken, and broken by Pershing' 8
American soldiers. Then the boches
will be hurled pell nell across the
Rhine. for nothing can then stay the
inevitable debacle.

If Germany is really becoming dem
ocratized Wilson will know it, and
Foch will do the rest. No question
then but what a real armistice will be
realized and a just world neace die
tated by the victorious allies. But
before Wilson and Foch set about their
duties every artery of Boche intripl e
will have been tapped rnd every ves-
tige of camoufaged diplomcy uncov-
cred. There will be no "scraps of
paper" in this square deal TO all coun-
tries, all nations. all peoples. For
every drop of blood that has been
spilled by the allies on Flanders Field,
and ether battle fields; for every wo-
man outraged; for every child or
phaned; for every city luthlessly razed
pillaged and burned-a just indemnity
and portion of misery should be ex-
acted from the helIish militarists w,o

Athena went over the top Saturday
noon in the Fourth Liberty Loan drive
with $500 to the good, that amount
being excess of her quota of $ls8, 900.
Athena generally leaps over the top,
though sometimes not so quickly as
other places where the quota is placed
within easy reach of attainment. Sat
isfaction is felt on the part of the local
executive committee in the fact that
the subscriptions to the second largest
quota awarded by the State committee
in Umatilla county are universally
distributed among the inhabitants of
the community, as the names of the
45l subscribers attest.

sANDBAes SAVE !, III MANY LIVES
italian Authorities Must Be Given
Credit for ResourcefuIness In
Modern Warfare.

No belligerent has shown more re-
sourcefulness than the Italians in de-
vising novel means Of offense and de.
tense, says writer in Wide World
Magazine. The Italian army was the
only one to enter the war with trench
helmet and steel chest protector, and
1T Is now provided with more efficient
body shield than is possessed by any
other of the warning nations.
Early In the war it was discovered
by the Italians that many lives could
be saved in skirmishing at close quar-
tiers If the soldiers carried or pushed
bags Of sand in front Of them, and the
present body shield has been an out
growth of that idea. ..
They are made in the one-man and
two-man type. The former are worn
by infantry advancing in the open, at
tached to the shoulders by a pair Of
light steel arms, and are long enough
to protect the head and vital organs of
a man standing erect. Lying at full
length, or even crouched, it covers him
completely. Each shield is pierced with
q small, round eyehole and an oblong
loophole for firing from, both of which
may be closed by sliding door when
not in use.
The two-man shield is principally
used In wire cutting. 1t Is carried on
the back of one man, who may also
work his rifle from loophole in the
top, while q second man works long
wire-cutter through a hole at the bot
tom. 1t is held up by short legs if the
first man desires to move independ-
emily.

Location.-Needed More
Room.

The Tire Hospital, which has been
located in the Southwestern Hard
ware Store building for the past three
years, has been moved to the room
vacated by the Borderland Trail Gar
age, across the street from their old
location.
E. N. Bowman, proprietor, says
that the rapidly growing business was
responsible for the move. When he
first started little corner was all
that was needed, but since he has
added stock of tires and tubes, and
a lot of machinery, etc., he was so
badly crowded that he could scarcely
take care of the business.
He has the new place nicely ar
ranged and is better than ever able
to accommodate those who need his
services.

Rev. MacLennan Goes
to Lamar, Colorado
Popular Pastor of the Presbyterian
Church Says Goodbye to
Liberal Friends.

Rev. D. G. MacLennan and family
have gone to Lamar, Colorado, where
they will in the future reside, and
where Rev. MacLennan has been
called to the pastorate of the Pres
byterian church.
Liberal is the second place we
have resided where Rev. MacLennan
has been in the ministry, and we feel
that we know him little better than
most people, and we can truly say
that we are indeed sorry to see him
leave.
MacLennan is thinker. He is
minister who is as nearly fearless as
a man can be, and he gets results.
He is not afraid to come out and con-
denim that which he believes to be
wrong, and is therefore a valuable
man for any community.
AS minister, as man, as a COM.
panion we have met few men whom
we respect so highly. The standard
he sets is high, and his work is the
kind that really makes the world bet
ter.
1t is unfortunate that we had to
lose him, but he will do good wher-
ever he is and his influence will sure
ly be felt in Lamar, as it has been
here and everywhere he has worked.
To the people of Lamar we want to
commend him in the highest terms.
We hope that he will find his new
home and his work pleasant and that
success may ever follow him.
