MAKES ATTACK
 0h SEC'Y BAKER
Associated Press Dispatch.

Washington, Feb. A. Secretary Bakers recent statement that the United States will have half million soldiers in France early this year and that prospects are not unpromising for ships to carry million more will be ready during the year, was char zcterized by Senator Hitchcock in an address before the senate today as absolutely preposterous" and "so ex- aggerated as to convey an entirely false impression of what we can do, and what we are doing" He declared Baker was misled by lack of infor- nation regarding the scarcity of ships. Hitchcock spoke in support of the bills for war cabinet, and mu- nitions director. Administration leaders will reply to Hitchcock, Sena- tors Williams and Kirby, being among those questioning Hitchcock regard ing the statements he made.

was obeyed on the part of all except Tom Roseman, who argued the mat ter with Chicken and finally reached his side, taking the gun away from him.
 Chicken then started back home af- ter another gun and was overtaken on Laurel street by Marshal Gus c. Mar tin, who upon approaching the negro, fired a pistol over his head. Grab ping the negro, MT. Martin took him to jail. The negro found that the marshal meant business when he fired his pistol the second time as the black refused to go farther than Hazel street toward the jail. Pitts probably will be indicted by the grand jury for having taken the
 money from the ngro boy at the point
 of gun. In the event of failure
 of this, he will be given trial this
 week in the justice of the peace court. ] CIRCUIT COURT BEGINS HERE.

DEATHS IN GERMANY.

Amsterdam, Jan. 0.-(Correspond- |ence of The Associated Press.)- "From the beginning of the war up to the end of 1916 there were over mill lion more deaths nj Germany than is normally the case", says the Berlin correspondent of the Maasbode in a statement on the effects of the war on the vital and population statistics of the German Empire.
 "For the first three years, con- tinues the writer, "the entire loss by mortality is said to have been 3,7O0,- 900. Thus instead of the normal in- crease of 2,4OO,000 there was on Au- gust 1, 1917, decrease of 100000 to which another 100000 was added as result of the decline in birth figures that still continues. The ab- solute decrease in the population af- ter three years therefore would have been two per cent of the number at the beginning of the war.
 "Other phenomena are to be ex- pected for the near future. Instead of 14,O00,O00 the men between the ages of IF and 45 will only number 12,700,000; and instead of 800,000 as now, the excess of women over men will be 2,100,O0O. It is not yet known how the war losses will be spread over the various ages but it looks as if there will be HOO women to every 1000 men of marriageable age. For these reasons, and in view of the fact that there will be large number of invalids among the men, the marriage chances must be termed greatly reduced, fact which will in it's turn produce further shiftings on the labor market, that on their part will again react on the population movement.
 s'The war is not regarded-at any rate by experts-as harmful for in fants. Natural feeding is far more general than formerly in all classes of the population, and the results are good, as the food authorities appor- tion to the mother the food for the child, as, for example, litre of milk per day. Infants have right to one litre of milk daily, 50 grammes of sugar and 200 grammes of flour a week and one pound of oatmeal a month, and can do well on that.
 "The food question becomes more difficult in the child's second year, as vegetables and fruits are scarce, at any rate in the large towns, so that the potato has to take the place of these. The counsel is now heard more frequently to restrict gymnastic exercises and, following the example of the marmots to substitute the food that is lacking by sleep, and to see that the children get long nights of sleep.

WHAT TO DO ABOUT THE FLAG

FIRST, have a flag.
Some schools have "a flag for every
school room. Others have one for the
school auditorium.
Second, study the history Of the flag.
This is IA good topic for fourth or fifth
grade history. Has our flag always
been as it is today? How many stars
in it? How many stripes? Why?
Most children know the story of Betsy
Ross; all of them should. Did Betsy
Ross make the first American flag.
Third, learn how the flag should be
treated. and practice treating it in that
manner.
Fourth, begin the day with the flag
salute:
! pledge allegiance to my flag and
the Republic for which il stands, one
Nation, indivisib!e, with liberty and
justice for all.
This is a suitable salute for the in
termediate grades. The salute cere-
mony has many variations, some of
them very beautiful. The following is
typical: The auditorium is filled with
children of the third, fourth, fifth and
sixth grades. At the real door appears
"a pupil bearing the flag. A chord
from the piano his presence.
The children all rise and face the flag
as it is borne down the aisle. When
the standard bearer reaches the front
Of the room and faces the assembled
children, all rise and, extending their
hands in salute, pledge allegiance in
concert. The flag is dipped in re-
