boys, who ordinarily would not oe mob
ilized for at least two and possibly
three years, have not yet been called up,
but mastering has been in progress for
some time, the report stated
Military critics, while they have known
that Germany was about at the end of
her man power, have refused to believe
that sixteen-year-old boys were being
prepared for the trenches. The reports,
therefore, are regarded with the greatest
Significance.

In order that there may be the best
possible facility in handling these per-
mits, and because of the fact that in
some instances the county food admins

the important points in his county, DR..

possible notice of such appointments so

GETTING A HUN FOR JOE.

Washington, Aug. 26-When A
U. S. Marine, David Thomas of Bill
rigs, Mont, finished out his four
years as sea soldier, he babe fare
we'll to his bunkie, Joseph s. Wilkes
of Salt Lake City, whom he had in
duced to enlist in the devil dog out
fit.
"You go to school, Dave" said Joe
Il will get you Hun. But if they
get me, it is up TO you to get one for
me-"
So Dave went back to school, and
Joe went to France with the Marines.
One day Dave saw Joe's death re-
ported in the casualty list.
81 am not afraid Of being killed,
but l am afraid of being coward"
said Dave, as he signed up for an
other Glitch" at the Marine Corps
recruiting station. He is now on the
way to get that Hun for Joe.

EXCITING EPISODE TONIGHT.

1t is more than probable that Amer
lean crooks are reaplng harvest of
gold from the treasury of the I'm
perial German Government. The
system in vogue among the vast spy
army which is maintained in this
country makes the average Hun agent
shining mark for the American con-
fidence man.
Robert Fay, one of the many men
who worked for the Imperial German
Government in an effort to destroy
American shipping, limited strongly
in his confession made to the Federal
authorities that he had lost several
hundreds of dollars through mis-
placed confidence, and Fay had a
very small amount of money to spend
in comparison with that which was
turned over to Ambassador Bern
storff and his two chief aides, Cap
tain Franz Won Papen and Captain
Karl Boy Ed, by DR.. Heinrich Albert,
the paymaster of the army of spies
and plotters in America.
German agents received instruc
tons to volunteer information in re
gard to their plans to no one. A Ger
tain list of persons to whom they
might talk freely was given them.
Consequently he asked no questions
of anyone who sought to do bust
ness with him, and it is to be pre-
sumed that numerous confidence men
played upon this trait. Added to
this was an absolute belief on the
part Of every agent that any one of
German birth must have reverence
fer the Kaiser, and be willing to be
treacherous to any other country.
Fay was badly in need of dynamite
or other high explosives, and appar-
emily any one could approach him
with nothing but German name and
a slight knowledge of Germany and
receive a deposit from him for an
order of chemicals needed for his
ship bombs. Fay's credulity as to the
treacherous nature of everyone with
a German name led him to supply
agent named Wettig. Wettig was
close to the United States Secret
Service and told Of Fay's request for
TINT, the most powerful explosive
known. He was arrested before he
had canoe of putting his plan
for destroying shipping into opera
ton.
The career of Fay, although a
short one as German spy, was filled
with excitement. It makes a thrill
ing motion picture. The story of his
activity is the basis of "The Kaiser's
Death Messenger" the eighth episode
of "The Eagles Eye" the serial ex-
pose Of the Imperial German Govern
ment's spies and plots in America by
William J. Flynn, the recently re-
tired Chief Of the United States Sc
cret Service. "The Kaiser's Death
Message" will be shown at the Opera
House tonight.

AN INSPIRING SOLDIER
LETTER

MeSSrS. A. r anu ID. ~. otoiiii As' =
received a letter from Thurston b.
Baggett, former employee, written
from Camp Beauregard, which con
tains sentiments truly inspiring not
only to the prospective soldier but to
the civilian who has an important
part to play in the winning of the
war. Since the writing of this letter
the writer has sailed for France and
should bv now be lover there" where
he will have an opportunity to prac-
tice the splendid principles embodied
in his communication. His many
friends in this community have the
greatest confidence that his chance
will not be overlooked. The letter
follows:
Camp Beauregard, La.
July IS, 1918.
Dear Mr.. Storm:
/ have not had an opportunity to
do much writing since l have been
here, but a week never passes that |
do not recall some instances Of cour-
tesies extended from friends left be
hind. l was just working and had
already been recommended for Of
ficers' training school at Camp Cor
don, Ca, when word came from
Washington ordering the 39th Divis-
ion to prepare to leave for overseas
service. l feel better and work
harder than 1 ever did in my life
time, but have just about completed
all that a private can learn and
will endeavor to try and explain what
| have been doing. l understand
now thoroughly the dangers and
what the horrors of war will be as
we go further along 1 was first
placed in Company D, 155th In
fantry; transferred to Company G,
156 Infantry, from there to Head
quarters Company, Mounted Orderly
Section, and am now at Regimental
Headquarters. have had rifle drill,
bayonet exercise, hand grenade
throwing, messenger or orderly, act
ing corporal, and am now in office
in line for sargeant-major. Sure,
we will have the best army in the
world when W call get across.
1t may sound foolish to say SO to
a civilian, but I have never had the
least desire to change to some easy
office job in quartermaster's depart
ment or elsewhere. have never
asked for transfer, nor ever tried
in any way to evade the real fighting
part of the army, and if l ever re-
turn to U. S. A., after leaving, I will
have a clear record to look in future
and can feel that l never tried to
shift the brunt Of the dangerous part
OF the army on some of the boys that
are so unfortunate that they can do
no better. The only thing l feel l
would do in this line would be to help
some of our boys l know to better
places should ever be in position to
do so. War is all Sherman said it
was and then some, but we will all
have something to be proud of if we
get back altogether, which | feel we
Will. We are the best taken-care of
soldiers in the world, and every c,tt-
lze, as well as soldier, should be W
ing to sacrifice a part or all for the
only land where Freedom exists to-
day, and shall always exist as long as
the same good people rule.
Well, if we should be in CAV Paris
or somewhere near in another month

You may not hear again from me
