American Indians Go Abroad
 As Workers For Red Triangle

T<WO American Indians have
 oeen sent abroad by the Ma
 tional War Work Council of the Y. M. c. A., one for service with the British troops in Egypt and one to France for work with the h. dians with the American Expedi- tionary Force.
 Leander Newton Gansworth, of Davenport, Iowa, volunteered for work with the Indian troops in the American army and is now in France, He was born in Lewiston, N. Y, where his father, two broth CTS and sister live. He is grad uate of Carlisle College and is said to be a relative of the famous Red Cloud. Before entering upon Red Triangle work he was financial sec retary of the Allied Printing Trades council of Davenport, Rock Island and Moline, and secretary and trea- surer of the Review Publishing company of Davenport. He received military, athletic and gymnastic training at Carlisle and after leav. ing college was a high school foot ball coach for time.
 s. Ralph Walkingstick, of 218 East Colvin street, Syracuse, N. Y. who was sent to Egypt, Is a Cher okee Indian. He was born in Tahle- Quah, Oklahoma where he served as a Y. M. c. A. secretary.

Glass of Hot Water
 Before Breakfast
 a Splendid Habit
Open sIuices of the system each morning and wash away the
 poisonous, stagnant matter.

Those of us who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when we arise; splitting headache, stuffy from a cold. foul tongue. nasty breath, acid stomach, lame back, can, instead, , both look and feel as fresh as a daisy always by washing the poisons and toxins from the body with phosphated hot water each morning.
 We should drink, before breakfast. a glass of real hot water with a tea spoonful of limestone phosphate in { it to flush from the stomach, liver, , kidneys and ten yards of bowels the previous days indigestible waste, sour Dile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans ing, sweetening and purifying the en- tire alimentary tract before putting more food into the stomach.
 The action of limestone phosphate and hot water on an empty stomach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour lamentations, gases waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast. A quarter pound of limestone phosphat, will cost very little at the drug store but is sufficient to make anyone whC is bothered with biliousness, constipa ton, stomach trouble or rheumatism real enthusiast on the subject o Internal sanitation.-Adv.

GERMAN SNIPERS ARE FOOLED BY
 DUMMY TROOPS
Paper Mache Heads or Poles Draw Fire of Hun
 Soldiers.

Behind American Lines in France, Sst 1s-Heads of dummy soldiers snaAs of papier mache and mounted on long poles peer with staring eyes over the tops of imitation parapets in the American camaflouge station here. They are decoys for the German sniper to shoot at and thus disclose his hiding place,
 Long lines of these dummy figures lean against the walls of the ''toy shop" as the soldiers caN 1t, huge building where companies and regi- rnents of imitation soldiers are manu- factured. Soldier heads, some bare- headed and others wearing helmets, are first modelled by scu!ptors work ing in soft white clay. This Is repeat cd in papier mache.
 A big oven bakes the papier mache heads to the required hardness. Then they pass to the artists, who put on the natural tint of flesh, uniform and helmet. Finally they are mounted on stout poles and are ready to be held up as decoys along the trenches, to Crew the fire of the enemy. Very often an enemy sniper will disclose his whereabouts by taking a shot at one of these papier mache soldiers peering over the trench front.
 Turning from the plaster decoys the correspondents were suddenly con- fronteo " a whole regiment of sol diers arn.~- and in full field equip ment, and thrown out in open order as the men go forward in the early morning raids, But instead of being real soldiers, this was regiment of ''silhouettes," Each figure was life size, painted on thin board, and cut out much as ohildren out out paper dolls. Some were kneeling and fir ing; others were firing from the shoulder; and others stood at rest. They were fine looking "men," every one of them. and the work of the best artists.
 These silhouettes are one of our most effective means of camaflouge, it was explained. They are used in the early dawn, when there is mist which makes 1t difficult to detect the deception. During the night they are posted in open order far in front. As NSbyt4SAb OlG tAAO OllS4AAy oOOo llAA1 array dimly outlined through the mist. It usually draws the fire of machine guns and batteries, and gives in ad- vance the main lines of enemy resist ance. With this disclosed, the men forward and living take the place of the painted sllhouettes.
 Near the silhouettes, artists were turning out a number of most artistic tree stumps. The stumps looked very natural, covered with moss, but each was handy box from which a sniper could work with his gun. Ono ot these handy boxes was inside a pile of old tin cans; and in another, the ob- server looked through an orifice of a helmet which had apparently fallen on the battlefield. But the cans and the helmet were not real-all camou- flage.
 A very effective camouflage, used along the top of trenches, is a simple box of rough, irregular shape, painted to resemble earth and covered witt gravel and twigs This is set upon the edge of the trench and looks just like the rest of the earth, but inside there is room for the head and shoulder O. a soldier who can look about a though head and soldier above thu trench.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1918-10-16

There Is no verifcation of the latter figure but there seems to be no doubt about the former. There also seems to be no doubt that there are 100,00O war workers here who were not in the ! city year ago. The result may be compared to an attempt to put a | quart of water into a pint meas ure.
 A reading of the want columns OF the Washington newspapers is sure to arouse a feeling of pity for the un- fortunates who plead for a place to live, even at profiteer prices. In fact the natives now read the want col umns for amusement in preference to the funny papers. Here are a few typical samples which bespeak the despair of a war worker trying to lie in the capital.
 The first woman confesses at the outset that she is desperate. She says so. Here is her p1aint: DESPERATE: Does anyone feel enough patriotic duty to accommodate 1 a refined widow of an army surgeon with a cheerful room?
 Another feels the stigma of the
 "men only" policy. She pleads:
 Will some kind woman who has d
 room not for men only" rent fur
 nished room to two Canadian girls.
 Don't want to rent the whole house
 just one room"
 Some others confess the faith they
 have in the old adage that "it pays
 to advertise." The first says: Docs it pay to advertise? $25 to
 any person intending to advertise an
 apartment or house keeping rooms
 of any kind who will give me such in
 formation in advance
 The other is even more positive in his faith that adertising will bring re- suits. He says: Never failed to get yet what wanted by advertising. Everybody :, tells me No use' say you're
 wrong. So here goes: Middle aged gentleman desires rooms," etc, etc. Another seeker breaks into rhyme. , She advertises thus: !, q need a place, little space,
 To hang my cape and bonnet; A bed some chairs, no cooking cares Just single room-doggone it!' Another seems a bit peeved because
 no one seems to take him in. He advertises in this fashion: , 'I left comfortable home when , came here to do war work. Will
 not some patriotic citizen take ms , in?''
 5 Still another delivers an ultimatum 3 Elus:
 Must have room within a week ' or return home. I am one of the un- l desired war workers, but I am quiet s and orderly as any man and do not :, smoke" etc, etc. v Another fellow has HOO talking machine records, all classical" an6
 thinks they will be good bait to gel B him in, so he advertises for family 9 which has a machine. Others adver, , tise they have been fused all our lives n to good furniture and will not mal t it."
 r There are too many others to de S scribe them all, but compiled in one
 volume they would be no less a hu e man tragedy than Comedy Hu V maine"
 = What must the Georgia constituen - think if he reads the Washington pa 5. pers nowadays?
