haustion and patiently unnerved, told
me at intervals and with evident
reluctance that German troops had suf-
tered great deal from lack of sleep,
the men having no rest by day or night
owing to the unending bombing by the
Allied aeroplanes, which had killed
them and fired their supplies and made
organizing under such ceaseless har-
assment q matter of extreme difficulty
An Inviting Compliment
He paid unwilling compliment to the
Americans in saying that they had in
creased the night patrols from ten to
twenty-five men since the Americans
came on the line. He said the German
soldiers had plenty to eat when they
could get it, "more than the people in
the fatherland," but the transportation
was SO disorganized during the last two
weeks that the rations mad been most
irregular and limited. He spoke much
of the heavy losses, and, almost like a
man talking in his sleep, said that Lu
dendorff mad "a surprise in store for
the Americans" but when I asked what
lie tHOuSnC OIL Cne CHInCoS OIL LuOen-
dorff's promise to the Kaiser of ending
the war in October with great Ger
man victory he closed his staring eyes
wearily and made no reply. l found
the spirit of our boys as keen now as
on the first day-keener, in fact.
When volunteers are called for, espe-
cially for hazardous patrol or other
jobs, many more than are needed in
stantly respond, no matter what the
project.
Swift Diplomacy Needed
81 often have to resort to swift di
plomacy," said a company captain to
me, "to smooth the ruff1ed feelings
when the choice has been made, though
the job may call for risk that makes
coming back long shot"
The Boches are more plentifully and
completely supplied than we with ma
chine guns and hand grenades and
trench mortars, yet none the less our
lads force their way forward, armed
with the rifles and magnificent courage
and fighting spirit, prepared to outma-
neuvrc the Boche and for the supreme
sacrifice, if so luck be.
To go after your man and keep on
going until you get him is the Ameri
can way of fighting and is proving ef-
fective. 1t has been a shock to the
Boche and tonic to the French and
British.

dresses had been revealed? The To-
cation of units was information very
properly kept secret by the military
officers, but Mr.. Burleson does not
charge that representatives of the
army could not have taken the mail
and delivered it. The Inference to be
drawn from his statement Is that the
postal authorities in France INDUCED
in very petty quarrel with the army
over the possession of mail after its
arrival from this country. The obvious
thing to have done under the circum-
stances related by Mr.. Burleson was
to have turned the mail over promptly
to the military organization for dis
tribution, as they alone knew the loca-
ton of the men. But instead Of that
he allowed his subordinates to exercise
their authority while the boys waited
for news from home. y

HEART AND BEAUTY
PROBLEMS
BIZ MRS. ELIZABETH THOMPSON,

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am q girl
twenty years old. I have been going
with a man, three years my senior
since 1 was sixteen. He gives me
every attention when he IL at home
and sends me candy and flowers when
away, but he has never told me that
he loves me. 1 go with other boys
sometimes, but he never seems jeal-
GUS. He goes on and makes q date
next time and never says a word
about my going with someone else.
love him, but 1t seems he will never
speak OF love.
He is in France and cabled me that
he arrived safely. He does that way
all the time. thought that he would
tell me before he sailed, but he did
not. Do you think that he loves me
and will tell me sometime?
Everybody thinks that we are en-.
gagged or secretly married. I blush
when anyone asks me about him and
as he Is SO attentive and goes with no
other girl l can see why people think
what they do. What shall / do?
BLUSHING MARY.
Just be patient and wait. Both of
you are very young to marry. and
the man probably realizes this. If the
money he spends SO lavishly comes
from his father. that ir reason enough
for him not to marry. He may be
waiting until he Is in a position to
support a wife before he asks you to
marry him.

Henry Allen, who soon will become
governor of Kansas, has come out
strong on the side of, universal military
training. Preparation for the future
along this line cannot begin too early.
The initial expense of the plan already
has been paid and the cantonments
thruout the country should not be
dismantled or permitted to go to ruin.
There is nothing that could be done
for the youth of the land that would
confer a gpeater benefit, physically,
morally, intellectually and in tae way
of discipline than the spending of a
few months in military training
camp. 1t will be worth the cost many
times over, even tho there should
never be another war. The time
which our young men would be called
upon to spend in military training
could not be more profitab1y en-
ployed. The discipline derived from
{ the experience would be among their
most valuable assets, in their subse-
quent contact with the world. Phys
ically they would come out prepared
for any task demanding strength and
endurance

The influenza ban in Topeka will be
raised at the end of this week. The
citizen then must look out for himself,
as he should have done from the time
the disease first made it's appearance.
II he had done this and followed the
advice of his doctor, probably there
would have been less need of hamper
ing regulations. 1t is almost certain
that there would have been fewer
deaths. At the state hospital, near
this city. there have been about
seventy-five cases and not fatality.
Patients vhen attacked were promptly
put to bed and kept there until they
recovered. Citizens of Topeka have
been told over and over that this is the
proper course to pursue. but many
have let the advice pass unheeded and
some have paid the penalty with their
lives.
