Somme, the Lys and the Marine. He ac-
complished what many good soldiers con-
sidered impossible. He changed the war
from one of position to one Of movement.
His campaign has been a wonderful sue
cess and colossal failure. 1t seems fairly
clear that LudendorF will not get the only
decision which would justify his huge gam
bic. Unless he could throw Britain or
France out of the war or so cripple them
militarily that they no longer possessed
the power to strike back then Ludendorff
must have failed in his chief objective.

BOY SCOUTS NEW TASK

One Of the greatest organizations
for the spreading Of the gospel OF true
Americanism is the Boy Scouts. Be-
sides benrfiting from the training they
receive as Scouts in guiding them to
iepcndablr young manhood. they are
spreading an influence that will make
for better citizens hip and more loyal
fealty to country. The Scouts did very
efficient work in the two Liberty Loan
campaigns and now they have been
called BY the Government TO perform
a more important. talk in distributing
patriotic documents. In other words.
they will be tbs, messengers or truth
refuting the lies th&i. ar" being In
sidiously circulated by I'll" agents OF
the great German conspiracy.
The German propaganda in this
country is a definite menace. II Will
be the duty Of the Boy Scouts organl'
cation TO help In 'counteracting It's ef-
feet in educating the American people
as to the issues and principles in
volycd in the war. The unfortunate
situation on the Russian front is due
as much 10 the success of the German
propaganda as TO German arms. Inc
same elements were responsible Tor
the success Of the recent German drive
on the Italian front. With these two
conspicuously glazing examples OF tho
success. of. German prOpogandist meth
ODDS, it becomes matter OF first I'M
portance for all in these United States
of America To prevent the success OF
German propaganda onslaughts
which are being waged with such sin
lister and powerful efects.
We have now come to full re;lliza-
ton OF the great danger our country

COL. w. n. THOMAS

The death last week Of Colonel w.
H. Thomas. Of Bramwell. removes
one of the best known and the best
beloved citizens Of southern West Tir-
ginia-one. of the constructive forces
that has made that section practically
leap out Of the wilderness into q Won
derful development Of its natural and
moral resources. Colonel Thomas was
first among the pioneers OF the cnal
development Of that rich region. He
was native Of Wales. but came -
West Virginia Il boy. Through indus
try and an unflagging devotion to duty
he rose 10 be one Of the most extensive
coal operators in that sphere Of oppor-
tunity. Testifying to the affection and
esteem in which he was held his fu-
neral attracted the attendance Of the
mourning miner as we'll as the sym
pathizing operator from every quar-
ter OF the mining activities OF that
part of the State.
Colonel Thomas was interested IN
the welfare of the people with whom
he had identified himself from his
youth up Their disadvantage was
his concern. and it was through his
efforts that the miner was better
housed and his children were given
greater opportunities for education.
The church always followed the school
house in his plan for the advance
ment Of the human brotherhood. 1t
is no wonder that his sudden death
caused such a widespread feeling OF
regret and sorrow.
While Colonel Thomas was no. a
politician. he was an answering adj
vocate of the principles OF the Re-
publican party, and as citizen look,
ing tosthe best interests Of his State
and the nation, always did his part in
advancing the party's cause. He was
a son-iu.law of John ]. Cooper, another
pioneer operator of the Bramwell re-
gion, and brother-in-law' of the present
Congressman from that district, the
Hon. Edward Cooper. He never
sought political honors. but his friends
insisted on him representing them in
the Republican National Convention
which met in Chicago in 1916. Truly
good man has gone, but his works
do not follow him.
