The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1918-10-22


October 2, 1918.
Dear Mother:
Your letter came few days ago,
but | haven't had time to answer.
I've been very busy lately, Pm going
to radio school every day learning
wireless, and I'm learning several
other things too, such as taking a
mans gun away from him and break
ing it over his head before he can
wink an eye, twisting a mans arm
clear off his shoulder when he draws
revolver and knocking his chin
away into the small of his back IN
hand to hand fight. There are
many other things too numerous to
mention, and the best of it is my
training has hardly begun. When !
get out of the Marine Corps, after
the war, will be able to lick the
devil myself.
When l enlisted / weighed 121
pounds, I lost 16 pounds when l was
in the hospital with pneumonia ana
now l tip the scales at 143 pounds.
So you see army life hasn't killed
me yet.
When l get to France I'll make
some Huns wish they had died when
they were pups. don't want a gun
nor revolver nor grenades, just give
me my bare hands and sure foot
ing and then feed the Germans to
me in pairs.
BY the way, where is Otto Green
located Give his mother my address
and tell him to write to me.
Little Miss Roberts in Bowling
Green is knitting me a sweater and it
sure will come in handy when I am
on guard duty these cold nights. l
was going to ask you to send me one
but she beat me to it. l knew her
when / worked at the Western Union
there.
It's almost time for taps so will
close. Write soon.

DOES PROHIBITION REDUCE
CRIME

A report of police statistics for the
city of Yakima. Wash, gives a strik-
ing illustration of the effects of pro-
hibition upon drunkenness and crime.
The report covers period of siX
years and presents the following fig
ures:
In 1912 there were 1926 cases Of
drunkenness and 1880 arrests of all
kinds.
In 1913 there were 1886 cases Of
drunkenness and 2,301 arrests.
In 1914 there were 1888 cases of
drunkenness and 1927 arrests.
In 1915 there were 1,474 cases of
drunkenness and 1904 arrests.
In 1916 there were 675 cases Of
drunkenness and ,429 arrests.
In 1917 there were 564 cases of
drunkenness and 1901 arrests.
1t will be remembered that prohibi-
tion became effective in Washington
on January l, 1916. During that year
under the dry regime the cases of
drunkenness dropped from 1,474 in
1915 to 675, and arrests for all causes
from 1904 to 1,439, with a still fur
thcr decrease in 1917.
Despite the natural increase in popu
lation, the unusual conditions caused
by the war. and the fact that the law
less liquor manufacturers, who from
their vantage ground in adjacent
wet states conceive the law, the fact
remains that there were less crime
and drunkenness under prohibition
than under license. Common sense
indicates that such would naturally be
the case and experience proves the
fact over and over again. Only when
we have had few years of national
prohibition, with the liquor traffic
eliminated and the nation sober, will
we begin to realize what an evershad-
owing curse strong drink has ever been
to US and what an immeasurable vol
ume of crime and unappiness it has
caused,

OBITUARY

We are indebted to Mrs. Laura
Lansing of Big Springs for the fol
lowing obituary of Charles +. Nelson:
Charles F.. Nelson was born in
Kieth County Nebraska on Aug. "a,
1894 and died at Camp Funston, Kan
sas April llth, at the age of % years,
7 months and II days.
He had been i'll with pneumonia and
diptheria for three or four weeks,
which he fought bravely and for a
time thought he was to be the victor,
when change in the weather brought
relapse and the end came quickly
He did his best--he fought we'll
and is entitled to as much honor as
though he had died on tire battlefields
of France.
On Sept. 9th, 1917, he answered the
call of his country and joined the COL
ors as a private at Camp Funston,
where he soon advanced to the rank
Of corporal in Company E of the 3l4th
Ammunition Train. While in camp he
made many friends among the boys,
but his particular pal was Sergeant
Chas. H. Mowry of Pueblo, Colo,
who accompanied the remains home for
burial, stood at attention by the cof-
fin. rode with it to the cemetery, and
at the grave performed the last act
of the living soldier for his dead CON-
rade 1t was beautiful ending Of I.
a young life.
The deceased leaves a mother. six
brothers and three sisters to mourn
his untimely death
The father died suddenly several
years ago. Charles was engaged in
ranching at the time he was drafted
and was an Industrious and business
like young man, which is evidenced
by the fact that he carried life in
surance policy of 100000, which is
left to his mother. Funeral services

SPECIAL TRAIN STOPS SHORT
TIME IN JULESBURG

A special train carrying patriotic
speakers and band arrived in Jules
burg last Friday morning over the
Union Pacific. Tne train was gayly
decorated with flags and bunting and
a large portrait of President Wilson
adorned the rear end platform.
A large crowd of citizens of this
community had gathered at the depot
when the special pulled in. The band
rendered a selection, this being fol-
lowed by a short red-hot patriotic
speech by one of the speakers aboard
the train. The special pulled out
amidst the cheering of the crowd. The
train was westward bound, it being
conducted by the Union Pacific in the
interests of the Third Liberty Loan
drive. Following is telegram re-
ceived by Agent Dohner from General
Manager Jeffers relative to the re-
ception rendered the special in this
city:

THE WoNAN'S LIBERTY LOAN
COMMITTEE

The work of women in selling lib
erty bonds may look like picturesque
detail To the indllgent American. As
a matter Of fact, it has proved one of
the principal elements of the liberty
loan success. No cabinet officer has
ever preceded Mr. McAdoo'in working
through a national woman's commit
tee, but the secretary of the treasury
had the excellent serse to take his wo-
man committee seriously, SO that the
national organization of women was
promoted with great speed and in 4
fashion so extended and through that
1t is bringing extraordinary results.
1t may not seem pertinent that the
First Catholic Slovak Ladies' Union
has taken 100000 of bonds in each
loan n that the Womans Benefit As
socIation of the Maccabees has sub
scrlbcd 100000, but there is no doubt
that the inclusion and Capitalization
of all the great national organizations
of women in an advisory council has
helpel to bear this kind of fruit The
collateral work of Inning wards and
townships through county and district
and tate chairmen has been energetic
cally and profitably pursued, with
hundreds OF millions directly traceable
to wumen's efforts, outside the indi-
rect returns from unremtting propa
gauda. The trea sury's promotion of
| this activity is an example of govern
