Will Play Santa to the A. E. F.

William J. Mulligan, chairman
of the knights of Columbus Com
mittee on War Activities, is leaving
for France to be good American
Santa for the A. E. F.
The K. of G. committee decided
at a meeting on Sunday in New
York that about the most import
ant thing to do for the boys in
France just now is to provide them
with a real homemade Christmas
celebration. This will be done.
William P. Larkin, K. Of c. over
seas director, has paved the way
by ordering and shipping to
France tons of candy, tobacco and
chewing gum. He is sending an
additional fleet of roller kitchens
over, and a shipment of motor
cycles originally ordered for the
Russian government was taken
over by the knights to expedite the
distribution of their goods abroad.
Mr.. Mulligan will stay long
enough in London to formally open
the K. of C. headquarters there.
These are in John Mccormack s
home, ait Hampstead Heath. Mr..
Mccormack having loaned the
home to the K. of C. In London
Mr.. Mulligan will order thousands
of pounds of plum pudding, which
will be shipped to France and on
Christmas morning heated in the
K. of C.. roller kitchens, SO that the
boys will have real plum pudding,
piping hot.
On Christmas Day Mrs. Marie
Gebhard of Washington, who is
serving ovtrseas for the K. of C..
will present K. of G.. dolls to poor
children of Paris.
In addition to carry Christmas
joy to the American soldiers anC
sailors abroad, Mr.. Mulligan will
look into the solving of the prob
lem of placing K. of G. war activi
ties ion a reconstruction footing
Already thousands of pairs o.
overalls and crates of tools have
been sent abroad, so that the hun
dreds of K. of C. workers il
France, most Of them skilled il
various handicrafts, can take al
, actual part in physical reconstruc
tion. These K. of C. men also will
aid materially in instructin,

RED CROSS TAKES
HOME TO The BOYS

The French soldiers have furloughs
which they can spend at home. The
English fighters go back to Blighty.
But our boys have the ocean between
them and home. They cannot come
home on furlough, and it remains for
the American Red Gross to try and
take home to them.
This is particularly true in regard
70 the convalescent homes. Here all
geversion to hospital life is avoided.
Books, games, music, social evenings
and home-like surroundings help them
to throw off the grim business of war
until they are really able to recover.
The housekeeper is always mother
ly woman, usually American, who
looks after the comfort of her charges
and helps them to pack up all imagi,
nary troubles in the old kit bag.
The American Red Cross now has
six Of these homes in operation.

Boys Teach Fathers
Better Hog Raising

Some of the boys in the two De-
kalb County, Ind, pig clubs are
showing thtir fathers how rapid
and economical gains can be made
in raising pigs. Under the direc
tion of the local county agent these
boys have been able to almost dou-
BILE the results obtained by their
fathers within the same length of
time and feeding pigs of the same
litter. The boys used self-feeders
and the fathers did not, and the
pigs which were allowed to select
their own feed made gains of 2
pounds a day. The club members
are proving, beyond question, the
merits of the self-feeder, and hog
raisers in the county of many
years experience are beginning to
copy. the boys methods. AS re-
suit of the club work, the county
agent reports, many fathers and
sons are now planning TO go into
partnership and raise pure bred
hogs.

A Mans Head His
Chief Asset in War

In modern warfare mans head
lis his chief asset. You all know
that the ST. Mihiel salient, encom-
passing 152 square miles of terri
tory and 73 villages, was taken by
the Americans. Did you know it
was done by head work? Elaborate
plans were made in advance and
given out wholesale to the troops.
One hundred thousand maps,
covering minute details of the
country, including natural de-
fenses, and how it was manned by
the enemy, were distributed, plus
10000 photographs, S C a t t e d
among officers of the artillery and
infantry. Five thousand miles of
telephone wire and 5000 instru-
ments were employed, and this
elaborate system kept up with the
advance of the army. By this SER
vice flanking troops could tele-
phone their position back to the
artillery. The telephone business
of a city of 100000 could have
been handled by this equipment in
whose operation 10000 men were
engaged. Thousands of carrier
pigeons aided the signal corps
Extensive hospital facilities, 4,S0C
