CAMP FILM SHOWS HOW VISIT
ING OFFICERS HELP TRAIN
OUR BOYS.
''The Remaking of a Nation" Proves
Allies Are Doing Their Bit in
Building of Americas Army.

Among other things the Camp Sher-
man motion picture, "The Remaking
Of Nation" demonstrates quite viv-
idly the co-ordinated efforts of our
allies in their grim determination to
push the war to a successful conclu-
sion. A good many of US probably be-
lieved the allies operations, so far as
America is directly concerned, ended
with the submarine blockade. To be
sure, number of French and British
officers came over to stimulate recruiC-
ing and act in an advisory capacity.
But it took this film to acquaint us
with the really important work the al
lies are doing in building up our own
army right on our own soil. At Camp
Sherman there are many veteran Off
GERS who have been through the stitfest
kind of fighting; men who have direct
ed attacks, and led attacks; men to
whom the fateful words "over the top
have become common; men who know
the modern war game from light artil-
lery to gas waves.
1t is under the tutelage of such com
petentS that our boys are being drilled
in the finer and newer arts of warfare.
This is an advantage neither England
nor France had at the time they were
forced to rush their youth to the from
to stem the tide of the onrushing Hun
1t doubtless forms the basis for the
War Departments assertion that the
American troops will be the best
trained fighters in the war.
The film gives views of these veter-
ans in their daily tas,s. You see al
English officer here training score OF
Sammies at hand grenade throwing
and trench bombing; French officer
there is teaching another crew how to
develope agility and accuracy with tie
bayonet. This is one of the most in
teresting disclosures the picture makes
And still other views show the visitors

Guard Against Evil Spirit.

If Chinese baby dies, the evil spirit
when released will enter the body Of
the next child born. In order to pre-
vent this calamity says Worlds Work,
the parents "tie an egg and some mus
tard seed to the body of the dead child
in the belief that the evil spirit will not
appear until the egg matches and the
seed sprouts. The astute parents care
fully boil the egg and the seed in or
der to postpone the date indefinitely"

j. S. FOREIGN TRADE
BIG AFTER THE WAR,
PREDICTS HARDING

America will be ready to take a
prominent place in world trade at the
conclusion of the war. W. P. G. Hard
ing. governor OF the Federal Reserve
Board, told the Southern Commercial
Congress last night, and the Federal
Reserve Board will do much TO off,
set the handicaps experienced through
shipping difficulties and embargoes.
THE Federal Reserve Act" he said.
was designed in large part to ex-
pand our trade with foreign coun-
tries. The foundation for financing
our foreign trade properly through
the medium OF American institutions
has already been laid and when at
last the war Is ended, the restric-
tiops upon commerce removed and a
greatly augmented merchant marine
can spread its sails upon the seven
seas, branches of American banks will
be founded at distant ports TO well
come these messengers of commerce
and to finance botn their incoming
and outgoing cargoes."
