of death from serious wound and the shock of battle Then came along a Y. M. c. A. man and he had a pot of coffee. It was weetened with sugar which had been saved by the sacrifice of somebody in America. The wound cd soldier drank it and it revived him. A few moments later the stretcher- bearers came along and they carried him to a field hospital, where he was given first aid treatment and sent to a base hospital.
 The soldier recovered and is back on the firing line.
 This story is fiction based on fact. When you do without a spoonful of sugar you are relieving some of the suffering and distress which the sol dicrs in France have to undergo.

KEEP THE ENEMY RUNNING"

Gen. Peyton c. March, chief of staff of the United States army, in a statement Saturday warned the pub lie against over-optimism and the feeling that the war is won because the Germans have been driven back on the Soissons- Rheims sector and ate now being driven back on the Mont didier front.
 We can enjoy big feeling of re- lief because the German menace at Paris has been crushed and the Ger man crown princess army has been so badly battered that he will have to rest some time before he can start again.
 Clown Prune Pupprecht of Bavaria now is feeling like his ''imperiled' cousin felt two weeks ago. His armies are advancing rapidly toward Berlin, their ultimate objective whether they think it or not, and for every inch he waltzes backward is just one more inch farther away from the channel ports.
 We may feel good over it, but we must not let it go to our head. If we get on victorious jag the two clown princes may take kick at the seat of our pants while we are celebrating.
 However, we can celebrate by buy ing thousand dollars worth of War Savings Stamps or a similar amount of Liberty Bonds, and the purchase will enable Uncle Sam to put another soldier or two in France and help maintain the crown pinheads' advance toward Berlin. Since they haven't yet dined in Paris they may be hungry and possibly they could get bite at grand high mogul hangout some where on the Wilhelmstrasse.

 They say that the opinion is wide ly expressed by German soldiers that the Grown princes amateurish in terference with the plans of their ex- perienced generals was the starting point for the present crushing misfor- tunes of the German armies"
