Work seems to be the best thing we

From time to time we have had boys
near our eanteens who were more help
than the ordinary crowd. They usu.
ally were more faithful than others, and
got to be our favorite workers-though
we always tried to stick to our rule and
never be partial.
But we can't let the boys make pies
or doughnuts. They never would learn
to do it right, though some of them can
be trusted with dipping doughnuts or
putting the pies in the oven, and remOy-
ing them, if we tell them when they are
done. We divide the work among us. l

for use, but it works well enough to give
the boys a taste of pie every week or so.

Small British Success

London, July 23. - British troops
made slight advances in various sec
tors of the Picardy and Flanders
fronts yesterday and last night, Field
Marshal Haig reported today.
The advances improved British posi-

improved.
"Our troops carried out successful
raids last night in the neighborhood of
Alzainzeville, Ayette Oppy, Avlon and
Lens. Prisoners and machine guns were
captured by us in the vicinity Of Mer-

town by storm.
All fighting was through wheat fields
with packs thrown aside, the men going
to it in old style bayonet charges. At
one place the Americans charged a hill
repeatedly without success, They kept
right at it and finally swept over the
boches positions, despite a murderous
rifle and machine gun fire.
AS they swept down upon one group,
all the boches yelled, "kamerad.
A Geman-A American among the dough
boys advanced to take charge of the
prisoners and found that one Of them
was his brother.
The advance was so rapid that head
quarters in two automobiles moved from
place to place telling the eouriers where
the new location would be each time.
A staff officer was in farm yard not
far from the advance line when a bo-
che airplane came over. The officer
lodged under an ammunition pile to es-
cape the airman s machine gun fire. The
airplanc continued to circle above him
and he wrote out orders for the next ad-
vance while still under the ammunition
pile.
The infantry in this unit brought
down two airplancs with rifles when a
flock of boches came over and tried to
strafe them. Returning from part Of

as Hedwig, Anna, Dora, Margot and

Colonel Chops
Wood For Girls
=. By Miss Gladys Mcintyre.


written for the United Press.)
With the American Troops at the
Front June 22.-(By Mail. )-One bright
morning few days ago just after we
had awakened and before we had be-
gun our work in the kitchen we heard
some ore chopping wood, just back of
the canteen. We were pleased, for we
needed wood chopped, and it is always
nicer to have some doughboy volunteer
to do it than to have to ask.
| told my sister it must be the home
sick doughboy who had said the day ,e.
fore that chopping wood for us took
him back to home and his mother. He
said he felt better after ehopping some
wood. After a while we left our billet
and went around to the kitchen. Who
do you suppose was chopping the wood7
1t was not the homesick doughboy, r
any other doughboy, but the colonel Of
the regiment himself. We were too sur
prised to see him swinging the axe to
know what to say, and almost forgot
to thank him. He said he liked his new
job, and accepted oIr invitation to have
breakfast with us. Bug the doughboys
all say he is encroaching on their rights
when he chops wood for us.
The Homesick Soldier.
The homesiek doughboy was an inter
esting problem to u.s. He had received no
mail for four months from home, and
read in paper one of his pals had re.
ceived Of the death Of his sister. His
father is not living either, and the poor
boy could hardly keep from crying.
OF course we wanted to do something
for him, but it is hard to help everyone
like that, when you don't know them.
We don 4 dare to show too much atten-
ton to anyone, no matter how much he
needs it, because it wouldn't be fair to
the others. Sc we just put the homcsick
doughboy to work. He did everything
we suggested, cut wood, fixed benches,

The sweater. having inspired all
sorts of sweater coats and sport coats
for the benefit of those who like to
combine smartness with uniformity In
dress, has improved It's own original
conception. In the new models now
being manufactured of sweaters pure
and simple we discover garments more
trim and more carefully planned than
I'm the time-honored old original. Much
more attention is given to the details
of finishing, and even the utility sweat
er makes q feature of color. Any
number Of gay shades, as bright as
field flowers, enliven outdoor back
grounds.
Many women knit their own sweat
ers and sweater-coats, but these hand
made garments are few by comparison
with those knitted by machinery. And
designers of machine knitted garments
have shown themselves amazingly clev-
err In turning out sweaters that are
almost replicas Of those knitted by
hand. They are responsible for the
best of new models and the introduce
ton of novel decorative features that
make them interesting. Recently they
have introduced caps to match--in the
case of utility-to be worn In keen au-
tumn days or whenever wind and cold
make a hat not practical.
In the picture. at the left, a sweater
coat is shown In light color bordered
with white. The range of colors In
cludes turquoise, orchid, rose. citron,

unusual shades that have come to be

signing, attractive color combination
with substantial wearing qualities and
comfort.

WHERE BELGIUM STANDS
BY HON. e. DE CARTIER,
Minister of BeIuium.


His excellency, f. de Cartier. Bel
gian minister to the United States,
has sent the Vigilantes the following
expression of the attitude of his coun-
try:
The principles which you have al
ways stood for, and for which you are
again fighting, are the principles which
have always animated my little country
and for which we, too, are fighting,
shoulder to shoulder, with your own
brave boys. We are fighting for free
dom and independence. Your soldiers
will not come back until il is all over,
over there; neither will ours lay
down their arms until the world is
made safe for honest people.
Germany offered us shameful bar
gain. She offered to spare our coun-
try and to indemnify us, If we would
let her pass through to accomplish her
crime against our neighbOr and her
neighbor, France. She wished to make
us an accOmplice in her crime, and she
gave us twelve hours in which to make
up our minds. That was eleven hours
and fifty-nine minutes too much. We
spurned her base offer. We have suf-
fered, but we have no regrets.
Having tried In vain to bride us by
offers of immunity, the Germans re-
sorted to violence and intimidation.
You all know the story, although many
of the details cannot be told until our
witnesses are freed from the menac-
ing claw of the German eagle. i say
to you that whoever undertakes to
write the history of the horrors COM
mitted by the Huns of the twentieth
century will have task that will turn
his soul sick.
One of the greatest of the crimes of
Germany was to attempt to enslave
our workmen and to force them to
work for our enemy and against their
own brothers. Tens of thousands of
honest workmen were torn from their
wives and families, loaded on trucks
like cattle and deported to Germany.
There they were tempted by offers of
high wages to work for our enemy and
to sign q so-called voluntary con-
tract" to engage In such workout
they would not sign. They were sub
jected to starvation-but they would
not sign. They were tortured - but
they would not sign.
The Germans tried to divide our
house against itself-but they "imag-
ined a vain thing" In the early part
of the war, after having ravaged and
massacred in Flanders as well as in
the Walloon district, after finding that
our people I'D not be inundated,
the Germans sought to separate Flan-
ders from the rest of Belgium by fat
tering the Flemings and pretending to
be their special protectors. But the
only result of the effort to divide
Flanders from the rest of our country
has been to arouse the most intense
unity throughout the land. All our
people Immediately rallied in defense
of the unity of our country, whose
motto is like your own. You have the
motto "E Pluribus Unum"-"One Com
posed of Many" and ours is Union
Fait la Force"-"In Union There Is
Strength"
