CANADA'S LAST
 TRIBUTE TO WOLFE

With the body of Wolfe on board the Royal William, the English fleet sailed away from Quebec 159 years ago today, leaving behind most of Wolfe's victorious army to defend the capital against the French, who still had a considerable force between Quebec and Montreal. Of the sailing of the fleet, A. G. Bradley says, in his Life of Wolfe: Tt was the 18th of October; they had delayed longer than they intended, and the breath of autumn had reddened as with flame the vast sea of rolling forest over which at this season the eye may yet range with delight from the lofty heights of Quebec. The ramparts of the citadel and the battered wharves of the lower town were crowded with soldiers and spectators. The guns of

Sometimes it's canteens run out of peaches. If the entire American peach crop was sent canned to France it would not supply the American de- mand.
 When our fighters fail to find peaches ill a Y. M. c. A. canteen the Red Triangle man has his troubles ex- blaming. One diplomatic 'tX' man without single peach to his shelves, tried to inspire interest in apricots. The soldiers scorned them, declaring they were true to peaches.
 The strange thing about the canned peach vice is that the American army is getting fine food in It's regular ra- lions, including what seems to the British and French as an incredible amount of sweet stuff. So peaches are not sought to satisfy a natural craving. It must be plain vice.
 Our soldiers only fear-not Ger mans, but a possible failure of the peach CroD

Special trains carry the army of workers to the shipyards, which are situated on the channel a few miles below the turning basis. The ship builders live in Houston, which Is credited with being one of the few cities where, with war work, extens- i've housing facilities have not caused alarm. Comfortable quarters have been provided for all.
 The Universal Shipbuilding Co.,, a local corporation, was organized sub sequent to the Fleet Corporation. The Midland Bridge Co.,, a Missouri cor pcration with headquarters at Kan sas City was, prior to the present shipbuilding activities, engaged in bridge construction and the distribu- ton of struc tural steel. Another com pany Is now being organized to estab- fish g. concrete plant here.
 The Information Marine Iron Works Is another unit in the ship building program at Houston. This company manufactures marine en- zines. boilera propellers and other appliances used in ships, and is equipped to produce heavy castings, It has contracts for propellers for most of the ships constructed in the district,
 Houston, as lumber center, has shared liberally in the prosperity which has resulted in that industry from the use of Southern yellow pine in shipbuilding. Approximately 20 per cent, of the total production of Southern sawmills is handled through Houston.

AMERICAN SOLDIERS IN FRANCE
 FALL VICTIMS TO "PEACHES"

Paris Sept. 2S (By MaiD-A new vice threatens the A. E. F. in Francel It has nothing to do with the dread trio, fermented grape juice, the fe- male sex or vocal music. Neither does 1t turn on games of chance or use of drugs. It is the dread Canned Peach Peril.
 Strong men who think nothing of cleaning out dozen boche machine gun nests before breakfast are the helpless slaves of this dreadful habit which now menaces their self-control. Men who never allowed a canned peach to pass their lips in the United States now cry for them in the midst of hot engagements.
 The American Y. M. c. A., instead of fighting this peach habit, is doing all it can to boost. Canned peaches are bulky. Transportation is a prob lem close to the front So the asso- citation is not able to do all it would 1iIYn

HOUSTON, TEXAS TO ENGAGE IN
 SHIPBUILDIN

Houston, Tex, Oct. 1S-Forty- vessels, including 10 barges, have Reen contracted for with the Elmer gsncy Fleet Corporation by two com panies of Houston and all are to be built on a waterway that only few years ago would not accommodate an ocean-going vessel.
 Seven ships have already been launched, four by the Universal Ship building Co. and three by the Midland Bridge Co.,; eight more are under con- struction at the yards of each of the two concerns, and the Universal holds contracts for eEht more ships, while the Midland Company has contracted for ten barg6s.
 Within one year after the program of the Emergency Fleet Corporation went into effect Houston, located in a section where former efforts along this line were confined to few small pleasure craft and an occasional barge, began launching ships,
 It was in April of this year that the first vessel built of Southern yellow pine under government contract slip- ped down the ways to the Houston
 
 ogdoches." Since that time the splen- did progress made has been the sub ject of favorable comment by officials of the fleet corporation.
 Ships launched at the Houston yards are lowed to Beaumont to re- ceive their machinery after the fin- ishing toucAes are given the hulls here. A central assembling yard is located at that point and, under the direction of the Emergency Fleet Cor poration, stores of all kinds of ma teriel are assembled there to be dis tributed to the yards, In place of moving machinery to the boats, the boats are moved to the machinery. - The infant industry of shipbuilding in Houston demanded the Service of some 5000 men within a few weeks after ground was broken, and the payroll now amounts to more than half a million dollars each month.

THE NEW AMERICAN SAINT

Among the hundreds of brave Cath ollie missionaries who perished in the wilderness of North Amer1ca-many Of whom suffered nartyrdom at the hands of the savages whose souls they sought to save-one at least is eX- pected to be honored by Rome with the ceremony of justification. It is probable that Father Isaac Jogues, when the process by which he be- comes Blessed Isaac Jogues has been completed, will be accorded the 18th of October in the Catholic calendar, as it was on that date, just 272 years ago today, that he was put to death by his redskin captors. At Aurfes- vile, N. Y, on the site where the Mohawks carried out the death sen tence upon the Jesuit missionary, a shrine now stands which is annually visited by thousands of pilgrims.
 Isaac Jogues was born at Orleans, France, in 1907, and became @ Jesuit novice at the age of IT. He came to America as a missionary in 1636. Ar rived at Quebec, the youthful French priest was almost immediately des- patched to an Indian settlement on Lake Huron. In a canoe with few Hurons he set out on the hazardous journey of nearly a thousand miles, the priest and his redskin companions sleeping at night in the woods and living principally on Indian corn. They were menaced constantly by the savage Iroquois, who were at war with the whites and the Hurons. Soon after his arrival a pestilence broke out among the Indians, and the medi- cine man charged the responsibility to the priest, who had 8. narrow escape from death.
 Later Father Jogues was captured l tortured and made a slave by the Mohawks, but after time he made 1 his escape and reached Albany, going

THOMAS FORTUNE RYAN.

Thomas Fortune Ryan was aptly named by his doting parents, for his fortune, all acquired by personal shrewdness, is estimated variously at 30 to 50 million dollars. MT. Ryan was born in Nelson county, Virginia, 67 years ago today. He began his ca reer as a dry goods clerk in Balti- more, married the daughter of his ''boss," and at 21 invaded Wall street as a broker, in which pursuit he was financed by his father-in-law. In as- sociation with William c. Whitney he began picking up street railway and gas franchises in New York, Chicago and other cities, and as side line ''reorganized" various Southern rail- ways, Ohio and West Virginia coal properties, and other industries. Those activities made of him a multi millionaire, and one of the powers of tho Street." when but 8 few years before he had been an awkward, un- educated farmer lad in the Blue Ridge district.

'ENSLAVED CREEKS
 SEEK REDEMPTION
Committee Comes to the United States to En-
 tighten People.

New York, Oct. 18-''We have come to this part of the world on behalf of the Central Committee of Unredeem- ed Greeks, by which term we mean the enslaved Greeks of Thrace, Asia Minor and Eastern Macedonia, who, grooming under the Turks, desire their redemption. Our object is to en- Tighten the people and the govern ment of the United States as to the rights of these people, as well as to acquaint them with the terrible suf- fertng, misery and atrocities com mitted upon them by the Young Turkk and the Bulgarians, but tnsti- gated by German barbarism," said Nicholas c. Kyriakides, president of the Central Committee, and chief of a mission to the United States to point out the fact that the liberation of these enslaved peoples must hs considered in the settlement of af- fairs at the end of this world war.
 '"The Young Turks, after the vic torious Balkan wars, in order to re- venge their defeat, have, in violation of all human laws and individual rights, driven out from our country, from Thrace, and from Asia Minor, " continued MT. Kyriakides to a repre- sentative of this bureau, mo fewer than 500,000 ensla7 ed Greeks, not al- lowing them to take any of their pos sessions with them. The brigand-like Turks have robbed this population of all their effects, confiscated their prop erty, and, when they have permitted them to sell by auction any of their living property, as, for instance 8 COW, they have allowed them to charge only one-tenth of the value ot the animal. Moreover, as soon as ii is sold, the tax collector comes around l and takes all of that.
 "Shortly after Turkey entered into 1 this world war as an ally of Germany the Young Turks deported about
