BOYS "OVER THERE"
 TAKE 104 ORPHANS
(Stars and Stripes.)

One hundred and four grateful little French children who have lost their fathers or their homes through the war are assured of food, comfort and a home, and thousands of American sol- diers at the front have the satisfaction of knowing that they have done a gen. erous deed and helped to convey, in a practical way a suggestion of the friendship and gratitude of the United States toward Francce. The adoption of the first one hundred children has barely skinned the surface of the thousands of needful cases. But it is a beginning, and the quick response at tests the willingness of the American soldiers to help.
 The bulk of the first one hundred re- quests are from aviators, organizations in training and the s. o. S. The men on the line have been too busy and also, as one or two have pointed out, in the trenches the banking facilities for transmitting money are not of the best There have been a few requests right from the front, however. One came the other day: Lieut.. John A. Hart of a field signal battalion, wrote from a dugout:
 My platoon, now in the trenches has decided to take an orphan and pay for it at once. I will forward the money as soon as l get to a postoffice for money order. My hopes are tha, we will take one each month for a while. Will you pick us out girl and send me her picture so I can send il around to the boys, as they are spread over a big stretch of front? Any little girl around 6 or years old will do.'

ECIMAL SYSTEM
 FOR NAVAL CLOCKS

The computation of time by the deci- nal system is the most recent reform under discussion in France. Just how the 24-hour day and the 60-minute hour managed to survive when meters grammes and francs were adopted at the time of the revolution, it is diff cult to say. The idea of smashing tnc calendar and consigning all old fash toned clocks to the dust heap seemed a little too formidable to the icono- clasts of 17S9, but it has no terrors for those of 1918.
 The first official move has been made by M. Gorges Leygues, minister of the marine, who has caused the fol- lowing order to be printed in the Off cial Journal:
 On and after January l, 1918, the working hours of employees of the naval workshops shall be recorded on their cards by means of hours and fractions of hours, the latter to be computed not in minutes but in tenths of the hour.
 One and two minutes shall count as 0-10 of an hour.
 From three to eight minutes shall count as 1-10 of an hour.
 From nine to fourteen minutes shall count as 2-10 of an hour. etc.
 From fortyone to y-six minutes shall count as 9-10 of an hour. From fifty-seven to fifty-nine min- utes shall count as 10-10 of an hour" This singular and arbitrary figuring is intended to simplify the problems of payment for overtime work and the penalizing of men who are tardy on the job.
 The minister's innovation is suffi- ciently striking to serve as a prece- dent for those who are advocating straight decimal time.

WAR WEAPONS FIRST
 WERE USED IN 1414
(Ontario Post)


 The first standing army was formed by Saul, 1893 B. C.
 The catapult was invented by Dio- nysius, 399 B. C.
 The sword came from ancient Egypt and was used throughout Pal estine, Syria and Asia Minor, India and throughout the western world. It was in Egypt that the three shapes of the sword blade originated, these being the straight, the curved and the half curved. The Roman sword was larger than that of the Greeks and in the days of the empire many of the sheaths were so covered with precious stones as to be veritable art treasures. Among the Moslems the highest title given to a warrior of renown is "the sword of Allah" The Chinese made swords or iron as early us 1879 B. c.
 Bullets of stone were used in 1914, while bombs came into general use in 1884. Bomb vessels had their origin in France in 1881. Fireships first appeared in the early part of the Sixteenth century.
 The use of cannon dates back to the year 1888. Artillery constructed of brass first appeared in 1885 Among the curiosities of artillery, odd inventions have a great place. Can non have been made of the most unlikely materials. Leather was used as early as Henry VIIIs day, at the siege of Boulogne. The Scotch used leather guns in 164O to batter Lord Conway's Qualifications at Newbourne In a tomb on the Island of Chinal near Usumacinta, Mexico, was found nI ,,N,o 1x,, of terra cotta, with terra cotta bullets lt is suggested that when Cortez re- tired after his great fight at Ceuta Tabasco, the natives copied the Span ish guns in clay, hoping to produce the same results. Artillery was frs used in war by the Moors at Age. ciras. Spain, in 1S41. Cannon were first used by the English, by direction of the governor of Calais, in 1883.
 Iron bullets were first mentioned in the Foedera in 1850. Muskets wer, first used in 1414, during the sieg, of Arras. while chain shot was device of a Dutch admiral, De Witt in 1866.
 The bayonet was invented in Bay onne, France, in 1870.
 Pistols were first employed by the British cavalry in 1544. The revolving chambered breech of the pistol wa. patented by Colt in 1885.
 Muskets supplanted the bow anC arrow among the British soldiery il 1521. Spain was the first nation tt equip foot soldiers with muskets.
 Leaden bullets came into us shortly before the end of the Six teenth century.
 The Mimic rifle was invented abou 1888 by M. Mimic of Vicennes. Tn battering ram had its beginning witt Artemones, Al B. C., while the frs army arranged in a regular line 0 battle was that of Palamedes o Argas.
 Palamedes is credited with devisin,

their share with a fine courage which gives one more illustration of the in- capacity of the German mind for com putting the bond between races when engaged in fight for freedom
 Subscriptions by Indians to the Lib- erty loans have totaled nearly 13 mil lion dollars, according to figures con- piled by Cato Sells. commissioner of Indian affairs. That is a per capita subscription of about $40 for all h. dians in the United States. Adults and minors have been about equally represented among the subscribers.
 The number of Indians in the mili- tary services probably is more than five thousand. Mir Sells is having pre- pared a complete record of their par ticipation in the great war. About 2,200 of the total have been indexed and classified, showing 1900 in the army. three hundred in the navy and one hundred in other military work Their willingness to bear their share of the hart1ships and dangers of mili- tary life is evidenced by the fact that 1900 of those classified volunteered for service while six hundred were drafted probably greater percentage of vol
 
 other of the numerous races represent ed In the United States.
 As a soldier the Indian makes good with a rush. Indian schools, with an attendance of 30,000 annually, have mill itary drill, almost without exception and to preliminary training in military life, the young Indian soldier adds traditionally fine physique. One h. | dian school has service flag with 150 stars, all but fifteen representing vol unteer enlistments. Another school has flag with 175 stars.
 While the young braves are over seas fighting an enemy whose cruelty is more refined and dealy than the un- | civilized Indians ever practiced, the grizzled old warriors of other days men who remember when the Ameri- can west was only emerging from a wilderness and the white man still was regarded as a foe, remain on the res ervations, smoking the pipe of peace with their white neighbors and preach | ing the doctrine of patriotism to their people. Sons and grandsons of Chiefs John Grass, Joseph, John Gall and other Indian leaders are in the United ! States army.
 Indian women, likewise, are doins their share by aiding in Red Cross work. Although complete vocational | course of four years in nursing is of 1 comparative recent introduction in the | larger schools in the reservations. six young women have been accepted fol l hospital service abroad and others arc being prepared for similar work h. dian school papers carry attractive ad- vertisements for the Red Cross. One reservation boasts of a Red Cross ban ner in every home. Saturday after moons are devoted by the women tc sewing for army hospitals and the boys

sphagnum moss in the bogs and marshes for use in surgical pads and ambulance pillows.
 Separate units for Indians have not been organized by the army because of the desire to have them rub elbows with fellow citizens and become better acquainted.

Wonderful and spontaneous fidelity to the highest welfare of the nation" is the way Commissioner Sells de- scribes the response of the Indian to his country's need. T hail this grow ing manifestation in Indian life as a sure basis for the strong and trust worthy citizenship to which our ef- forts are directed"

the idea of placing sentinels with pickets around a camp. The watch word as used by sentinels is supposed to have been his conception, also.
 The most famous cavalrymen of were the Parthians. Their invasion of Judea, 40 B. C., resulted in such terrible devastation of the country that 100 years later the terrors of the Parthian invasion gave the Apostle John the idea of one of his most vivid pictures.

SUGAR SHOWED
OUR BACKBONE
American WiIlingnecc u &C u
Luxury Demonstrated Ma
tons War Conscience.
STAND WITH THE ALLIES.
BY Reducing Consumption People Of
the United States Averted
Famine at Home In Spite
p Of Low Supplies.

The fact that the people Of the
United States were able to reduce by
more than one-half million tons their
July, August, September and October
consumption Of sugar proves conclu-
sively that their war conscience was
thoroughly awakened and that the
country as whole stood ready to fol-
low the injunctions of the Government.
Our normal consumption of sugar in
the four-month period beginning with
July has been 100000 tons per month,
total of 100000 for the quarter
year.
In July, when our sugar stringency
began to reach its height, consumption
was reduced to 100000 tons. In Au-
gust only $4,000 tons went into dis
tribution and in September only 279,-
600 tons. In October the distribution
fell to 100000 tons.
If the general public had failed to
observe the mjunctions of the Food
Administration this country would
have bsen in the throes of sugar
famine before the end of August. Our
visible supplies were so low as to bring
great anxiety to those familiar with
the sugar situation. They feared that
: 1t would be absolutely impossible to
reduce consumption to point where
sugar would no longer be mere lux
ury in the American diet.
Few accomplishments of the Food
Administration will stand forth so pre-
dominantly as this reduced consump-
ton of sugar. BY it we have been able
to bridge over the period of stIingency
until the new beet and Louisiana cane
sugar crops were in sight.
Now the nation Is in position SO
that If we choose we may return to
our normal home use of sugar, and
Europe, with tn release Of ships to go
far afield, can maintain its recent re-
stricted rations. If, however, those
nations are to increase their use of
sugar very considerably it must be by
our continued sharing with them
through limiting our own consump-
ton.
