Ing in the Franco-Prussian war, was
arrested by federal deputies today

and city detectives who made the raid
said they found 500 gallons of beer,
several gallons of whisky and two
barrels of cane sirup in the house.

for investigation as to his status. He
has never been naturalized. and was

SHOW APPRECIATION.
BY H. ADDINGToN BRUCE.
Copyright, 19is.)

Appreciation is to man what oil is
to the machinery used by man. The
unappreciated man is as likely TO de-
velop undesirable ways as is the un-
oiled machinery.
And those who fail to show ap-
probation when the occasion calls
for 1T are akin in their folly to the
users of machinery who fail to keep
their machinery oiled
These were the thoughts that fash
ed into my mind as 1 witnessed
little incident in a street car the
! other evening.
1t was the rush hour. and the car
was jammed with hofnegoers. A
workingman, weary faced. had been
lucky enough to obtain a seat. Which
was more than had been.
Near by woman-evidently a be-
lated shopper. and probably a need
lessly belated one-clutched at a
strap. The workingman. noticing this,
rose and beckoned to her to take his
place.
Promptly she made her way to it
without a word of thanks, without a
bow, without SO much as a smile to
show that she appreciated the conr-
tesy.
The workingman frowned little.
That was all.
But / wondered if he would be as
ready next time to show gallantry in
a crowded street car
The world contains too many peo-
pie like this woman. They are found
in both sexes and all walks of life.
Many of them are not really unap-
preciative. But the effect on others
sessed not one grain of apprecia-
tfop.
And the effect of their failure to
show appreciation for kindly acts or
| work well done may be more serious
| to themselves than others.
Here Is an employer of labor. a
| hard, aggressive, self-centered busi-
ness man, with a keen nose for
profits. 1t is his rule to pay as low
| wages as possible and to exact the,
highest possible prices for his COM
| modities.
A new salesman joins his forces.
! young, inexperienced, but brimful of
| energy and good ideas. Naturally he
starts at a small salary.
Naturally, also. having proved his
worth from the start, he expects
some appreciation.
veiope remains as thin as ever. He
does not even get a few words of
praise from the employer whose in
| terests he has been zealously pro-
i noting.
! Gradually he becomes embittered.
Then one of two things happens.
Either he falls of badly in his work.
or he eeeks some more appreciative
employer.
In either case the unappreciative
profiteer is the big loser. And in the
end his continual failure to show
| appreciation may bring him to busi-
mess ruiu-as it has brought many
an employer of labor.
To all who do good work for you.
to all who go out of their way to
beneft you, to all who do kindly acts
no matter how trivial, show appre-
| citation.
You will be making life easier for
them and for yourself. You will be
helping them and helping yourself to
grow in happiness and efficiency.

COURAGEOUS" PROFITS
IN OFFICERS SUPPLIES
Army Men Mulcted SzS, ,0oo, GOO q
Year by Private Dealers, Says
= Senator Jones.

The lve-billion-dollar Army ap-
preparation bill was completed late
yesterday by Congress and now goes
to the President. The conference re-
port on the measure was approved
by both the House and Senate after
only brief consideration.
Dissatisfaction was voiced in the
Senate over the elimination at the
insistence Of the House conferees OF
the amendment by Senator Jones of
Washington providing for the sale
by the government Of uniforms and
equipment to Army officers at cost.
Senator Jones charged that private
dealers are guilty of Outrageous"
profiteering and estimated that the
$40, ,000 officers in the. Army are being
mulcted Of $4S. .000, 900 annually.
Citing . specific case, the WASH
ington senator said he had been In
formed that q contract to furnish
watches costing $40 to officers had
been made at one camp at rate of
SCI for each watch.
Senator Penrose Of Pennsylvania
said the circumstances suggested
bribery. Senator Chamberlain, chair
man Of the Senate military commit
tee, promised an. investigation and
added that the refusal OF the House
to accept the Jones' amendment was

countries. Notwithstanding the strenu-
ouJ efforts made by Germany to ac-

Wonderful stories have been told and

spreading OF such stories is and always

posed to have depressing effect upon

American exporter is apt to be reticent
about what he is doing in foreign coun-
tries. Not 80 the German. He claims
everything and then some.
"As illustrating that. some time ago a
story came from Buenos Aires to the
effect that agricultural machinery from
the United States imported into Argen-
tina since the war was giving great dis
satisfaction; that German machinery
used prior to the war was much better
made and more suitable to the country.
This story, with much detail as to why
the German machinery in general use in
Argentina prior to the war was better.
was published extensively in the United
States, with no comment whatever. The
facts are that Germany had no hold on
Argentine agricultural machinery i'm

field more than twenty years ago-horse,

cry had done the ousting because IL was
better made and more suitable to the
country and the crops. The trade was
more intelligently handled by American
exporters and as a consequence they Sc
