POPULAR EXPLOSIVES.

Wise men toll on with purpose strong
And build city fair to see;
An arrant idiot comes along
And blows it UP with n t.
Washington Star.
But if he's just common spy
And there is not guard in sight.
He steps around, exceeding spry,
And blows it up with dynamite.

ADRIFT WITH THE TIMES

A SOLEMN THOUGHT.
The high cost of living,
We're fain to confess,
Is causing no little
Heartache and distress.
But what are mere prices,
Howe'er they advance,
When brave men are dying
For freedom in France.

have served in Judge Forts court
II think every man should be willinS
to do jury duty. I was greatly inn
pressed with the talks which Judge
Fort delivered to US. One day he spoke

crime was on the decrease and that The
people were responding to the demands
made upon them by the government

sMany pleasant experiences have peen
mine. but nothing has ever been more
gratifying to me than the reception snas
the soldier boys at Camp Sheridan gave
Mr.. owen Gillespy, Mr.. Levy and myself
last Monday and Tuesday evening when
we appeared in concert there said MIS-
John D. Turner.
"Mr. Turner and our little party went
| down to Montgomery on Monday ana
| the premier evening of the concerts,
lMr. Gillespy, Mr.. Levy and myself were
greeted by an audience of 700 soldiers
Their appreciation was something per-
fectly wonderful. They didn't applaud
us, they fairly screamed and shouted
with happiness. Our music was selected
with an eye to things that would please
the boys-popular music, good music but
not too classical.
| "Mr. Gillespy never sang better in his
life and his beautiful voice certainly
gave the soldiers a great deal of pleas
ure. Besides playing several violin
numbers, l did some monologues, ac-
companying myself on the piano, and
the soldiers SeeIeu 10 iilAo tHon WIZ
much.
! During Tuesday we visited the hospt-
tails and took my violin along and
played for the soldiers in the different
wards all over the big base hospital at
the camp. If people only realized how
our soldiers hunger and thirst and long
| for music feel sure that many of those
who have beautiful voices and musical
talept wo,ild visit the camps We want
to go to Camp Mcclellan and maybe to
Camp Gordon. 1t certainly was an m
SEPARATION to have enthusiasm and ap-
probation showered upon us like those
splendid young soldiers at Camp sheri-
dan did"

The vote came as an anti-climax to a

Senator Sheppard told the Senate the

Senator Penrose asked IL the bill

That nullifes the whole plan to my
mind" said Senator Penrose. by July

TARDIEU OUTLINES
ADVANTAGES WON
If L. s. Men Continue Same
Dash. Germany Is Lost,
Say Prisoners.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 29.-Andre Tar
dieu. high commissioner Of Franco
American war cooperation, now in
Paris. has given to the Associated Press
comprehensive statement summing up
the military events of the last Ave
months and showing thir present bear
ing on the war.
He says German prisoners declare
that II the whole American army shows
the same dash as the Americans who
have been in action SO far the German
cause is lost. He adds:
Though it is too soon to sum up as
whole the military operations extend
ing from August 5 to 25, since the battle
Is still in progress. the following re-
suits have already been obtained:
Paris is no longer threatened.
Our direct communications by
rail between Paris and Calais have
been reestablished. as were those be-
tween Paris and Nancy July 20.
"3-Our third aim, to wrest the tnitia-
tive from the Germans, has been at
tanned
THE instructions given by the Ger
man high command to the German
troops are now Of a decidedly defensive
nature. They confess that the situation
is serious for Germany. Judging from
reliable documents 1t seems that only
twenty -four fresh divisions. that is to
say. twenty-four divisions having been
Withdrawn from the firing line for at
least month, now remain in actual
German reserves. Twenty-three others
are being reformed.
Forty seven divisions whose morale
was considerably shaken constitute the
Germans last reserve in the present
battle.
The answers OF prisoners, secret doc
uments and letters addressed to Ger
man soldiers reveal a great discourage
ment among them. They no longer be-
leve in victory and with them 1t Is
only a question of holding on to save
Germany from disaster"
