M. F. Muiroy. manager o. the nus
sell mill, received letter from his
brother, William Mulroy, written from
France, Oct. 80. It appears that the
report concerning Mr.. Mulroys being
wounded was not true. Nothing def
mite concerning Mr.. Mulroy had
been learned until the recent letter
was received. Karl Stoudt, writing to
his father under date of Oct. II, re-
marked that it was too bad about VIM.
Mulroy and as Mr.. Mulroy had been
in some of the severest fighting, it
was feared that he might have been
wounded.

German Soldier Slang.

The first attention attracted by Boche soldier slang was enlisted when they dubbed the 420-mm. gun Big Der tha," says the Bulletin des Armees The machine gun is "stottertante" (the aunt who stutters). They also say "the organ of death" 'the collie can non," "the old chatterbox." When the French machine guns are in action the Boche in his dugout exclaims:
 There's a Franzman at his sewing machine"
 The casque is the tulip" the knap- sack, the monkey" epaulettes are "soup plates" noncom stripes are "cu cumber parings" The various arms have their sobriquets. The infantry man is called the sand hare;;" the chausseur is the green frog" the trench digger is the mole" or the "ditchman;" the white cuirassier, the "fiour bag" the uhlan. the "lamplight er," and the green hussars with yellow trimmings are ''the egg and spinach"

Bible Stops Bullet.

When that American Sunday school scholar gave his nickel for a Testa- ment for a soldier In Europe he did not know that the Testament would stop a bullet within an inch of a French soldiers heart and save his life.
 But Eugene Dufall. that gallant French soldier whose life was saved by that Testament, knows it, and he will always be grateful to some un- known American Sunday school boy, or it may be girl, who that Sunday back in America did his bit toward the 100000 Testaments and Gospels which have gone to Europe through the cooperation of the Worlds Sun day School association and the Amer ican and other Bible agencies.
 This new Testament was given him at Dieulefit, the first camp in Dau- phine, by the French Bible society. On January 10. 1917. he was carrying 1t on his chest in the Schonholtz wood. before Altkirch Gin Alsace). when q bullet from . machine gun glanced from . tree or rock, struck him on the breast and entered the Testament.

TO WIN thru to Amiens the forces of the kaiser must defeat the combin- ed forces of the United States, the British. the French, the Belgians. the portugese and the Italians. The odds are so pointedly against him that it is a wonder that the invaders have not been rolled back across the line some months ago With the transfer of the sector it is apparent that the battle is not over and that the allies will be compelled to give and take some mighty buffets before the pendulum swings their way. The Prussian ob- jective at the present time is the city of Amiens.
 The city is an important strategic point as welltas q supply base and is as near impregnable as valor and the allied arms can make it. To reach II the ground will be literally carpeted with German dead and every brook run crimson to the sea. The allies have retreated. at times, but in their counter attacks have always gained their objective and rolled the mighty Prussian army back. The kaiser can never win the war, and his sacrifice of men shows lack of sympathy and coordination with hle people. How long Germany will stand the imperial camoufiage before revolting is uncer- tain, but as sure as day follows night the time will come when her armies will refuse to be sacrificed against the allied wall of steel, and on that day the mantle of peace will be thrown over the world. To accept peace now would be to acknowledge defeat. To allow Germany to remain unbeaten would mean the mainten- ance of a huge standing army and navy by America.

SHOT DEER FOR BREAKFAST

Samuel Cole. who came to central Missouri a boy. told these hunting stories:
 When ! was about twelve years old I started one morning to hunt for game. My brothers had an old 1inf- lock rife. which carried with me. Ii was large and heavy gun. and was SO heavy that could not shoot it without using rest. came up the river. keeping near 'he bank. until ] got to where the courthouse now stands in Boonville Under the trees, which then cover,-l the ground in the courthouse yard. saw five deer stand ing together selected one of the finest looking ones and fired. A the crack of my gun he fell: but when l went up to where he was, he Jumped to his feet. and would have followed not rushed up and caught hold of him, putting my arms under his neck. He paved me with his sharp hoofs ana horned ms-his hoofs making an ugly gash in my thigh and his horns strik- ing me on the forehead. The marks or both hoofs and horns I carry with me today. held the deer until my dog came up. l then loaded the gun ana shot him again. this time killing him. This was the first deer I ever killed. and although 1t was dangerous un- dertaking. the experience only spurred me on to gather trophies of . similar character.
 "I killed Eve bears just below the town-where Boonville now stanos- and killed twenty-two bears in three days killed four elk in lees than one hour. Thers were a few buffaloes in the country when came, but these were soon killed or driven further west ward. never killed . buffalo, but caught i've calves of a small herd near Pettis county line. have seen as many as thirty deer at one sight at Prairie Lick.

Food Consumption.

Studies of the monthly per capita consumption of wheat. meat. fat and sugar in the United States and In Flu ropean countries. show that, in gen. eral, people in the United States eat the most per person. The German sugar ration for 1916-1917 was hardly more than one-tenth of our consump- ton and in meats we consumed almost six times as much as the Germans were allowed. France is on slightly more liberal diet than Germany. yet the French sugar ration is only II pounds per month per person. as com pared with "A pounds in the United States. England, though commonly considered a country of hearty eat CTS, uses even less fat than France, and is about midway between France and the United States as regard msst and sugar consumption.
