extreme haste in disposing of the
League of Nations" question.
IF a League of Nations may not be
a good thing, certainly the agitated1
days following a. great war should not
be seized upon to saddle the country
with a policy it has not examined and
which is no necessary part of the maxi
ing of peace he said. II for one am
entirely ignorant of what the presi.
dent means by a League of Nations.
The American people do not know.
Our judgments must today be hypo-
thetical. Conceptions of a League Of

republic to a mere entente for certain.
purposes of the United States and our
chief allies-something that need not
necessarily cause alarm.
Present Coalition Effective
Some people speak of an interna-
tional order founded on justice and
good faith as necessarily the antithes
sis Of an International order founded
on power. The victorious Allies have
in this war placed %invincible power at
the service of Justice and good faith.
We have seen the glorious result.
Where would Justice n good faith
and civilization be today if those pow

lions, hastily created now, that we
are ready to surrender our national
conscience of such a league? Can we
create a league with a purer con-
science or higher ideals than the n
called into existence by the German
attack? Wise policy, as opposed to
shallow empiricisrn, would seem to
counsel us to solidify and build upon
what we have tried, rather than to
plunge headlong into a universal eX-
pertinent.
Middle Course Best

extreme radical, the progressive who
demands the millennium here and who
is very intolerant of the views the

Bloodsucking Insects as Transmit
ters of Anthrax o. Charlton is the
title of the latest publication of the
Louisiana State University Expert
ment Station. It is the work Of Harry
Morris, bacterioiogist and assistant
veterinarian.
This bulletin gives an account OF OK
periments In the transmission OF an
thrax or charbon by bloodsucking in
sects. The horn-fy, horsefy and mos
quito were used in these experiments.
The results show that these insects
are capable OF transmitting anthrax
by feeding upon healthy animal af-
ter biting an infected one.
The results Of this work should
prove the necessity Of protecting ami
mails sick with anthrax from the bit
ing of the blood sucking insects. They
also show the necessity of keeping
valuable anirla1s in screened build
ings during outbreaks Of this disease.
This bulletin may be obtained free

CHICKENS REQUIRE
four KINDS OF FEED

Grains, or Substitutes.

Some one has well said that chick
ems need four kinds Of feeds: greens,
grit, grubs and grains. Since these
four classes of|feeds all begin with tn
letter G, they should be easy to re
member. Too many people make the
mistake Of feeding their chickens froE
only one or two ofthese groups. When
ever tho feeds from any one of these
groups is lacking, the chickens ar'
not being fed ration that is properl.

Greens. The generous supply Of suf

other tender vegetation which is a

MEMORY THAT WILL LAST
French Gratitude to America Is
Deeply Engraved on the Hearts
Of Her People.

Kathleen Norris, writing In the
WoIhan's Home Companion, gives an
imaginary conversation with young
French girl describing the coming of
the American soldiers to France as she
Is supposed to remember 1t:
"'And men-to' stand beside our
men-from America remember
standing ut the chateau gateway on
bright November afternoon and seeing
them come up the road. Soldiers We
were used to soldiers But these were
different. Grandmere was with me,
we had been here all the time.
"They came along. In the stream

and waved at me. "They are the

began to cry softly. "God bless them

over and over. And that night, as you
know, we had their officers at the
chateau, and one of them told me he
also had daughter, not much younger
than I, and that her name was Vlr-

TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS AT NIGHT
Handieaps of Fog and Darkness Have
Been Overcome by Development
of New Process.

Neither fog nor darkness handicaps
the supereyes of the war department
signal corps cameras, according to
Edward Hungerford, who describes
the remarkable progress OF wartime
aerial photography In Everybody's.
He gives some interesting examples:
II have seen photograph of wan
ing moon over Rome-taken by the
new process. II Is the first real pic
ture of the moon that have ever seen,
although formerly attempted the
thing myself. Most of the moonlight
pictures that one sees are fakes
made by photographlng the sun in
various unusual and artistic phases.
But this was real. One could see the
tiny pools of water standing In the
uneven places of the tagging, the
pickering street lamps ut the corner. A
picture whose reality almost makes 1t
uncanny. And the photographer who
took the picture In the rain was mr.
rested by gendarme as being mental
ly unsound. He was only released
when he took picture Of the lieuten-
ant at the police station and proved
beyond question that he could make
good portraits by artificial light.
II have seen photographs made by
this new process from the front row of
n theater balcony during the progress
Of the play; others made In church
during vespers and illumined entirely
by the candles upon the high altar.
The process is very new and 1t is very
wonderful. Moreover, 1t Is susceptible
Of adaptation to night observation,
both from alrplanes and upon the
land"

SPIRIT OF AMERICA TODAY
Veterans Pathetic Gift Showed That
His Heart Still Beat High With
Patriotic FerVor.

An old man, thin and bent with the
years OF hardships plainly marking his
wrinkled face, stood ON station plat
form at an Indiana town recently as
n train bearing party Of young men
reglstrants to Camp Taylor stopped.
The old man wore faded blue uni
form, the badge Of the Civil war. He
had a message for the young men who
were to be enrolled in Uncle Sans
great army, and soon he was surround
ed by group of young fellows.
~ wasn't counting on getting to talk
to so many Of you boys" he told them
TREMENDOUSLY. 81 just came down to
give something to one Of Uncle Sans
new soldiers"
He drew parcel from under his
coat and opening It displayed pair of
almost perfectly knitted socks. "They
amt much for my country" he apollo
gIzed, "but they will help some young
fellow to fight better. These don't look
like much for soldier to give, but l
knitted. them myself and l bought the
yarn out OF my pension money"
A thin fellow got the socks because
the old soldier thought he would need
them most. The train pulled out and
the little old soldier went back home
to knit another pair of socks for an
other young soldier.

An aerial tank has been invented
and put into practical use by Italian
soldiers who have astounded the world
by their extraordinary feats In noun
tain warfare. An Austrian machine
gun emplncement was so situated on
a mountain side that It poured har-
nsslng fire Into an italian post. The
Austrian position was unassaIlable by
ordinary means. but II was necessary
that II be wiped out. A "Teleferlca"
car, many OF which are operated by
the Italians across chasms and up
mountain sides, was armored and
equipped with machine guns. Volun-
teers were called for, and from the
many who responded two were chosen
to man the guns. This lmprovlsed
aerInl drendnaught was then swung
out across the valley, After one or
two exploration trips ut a dizzy height
the men in the car finally located the
Austrian post and quickly put It out
Of action.
