FIVE AMERICANS
GIVEN DECORATIONS
TWO OF CROSSES GO TO THE
NEXT OF KIN, AS RECIP-
TENTS WERE KILLED.
(By The Associated Press.)

With the American Army i'll
France, May 2S.-Three men at
tached Ito the American marine
corps and two American infantry
men have been awarded the Distin-
guished Service Cross for conspicu-
Gus heroism in action. Two Of the
crosses will be delivered to the next
of kind because the men upon whom
they were conferred lost their lives.
Pharmacist Fred {. Schaffner, u.
s. N, serving with the marines dur
ing an engagement on the west side
of the St. Mihel salient, southeast
of Verdun. died as 4 result OF his
heroism. The cross was awarded
hi mfor "the highly commendable
action he displayed in the care and
attention incident to the removal Of
more than one hundred casualties,
following gas shell bombardment,
April l3,' says the citation, which
adds:
Relieved Against His Will.
He had to be relieved against
his VIII, and a result OF the SaSSlnS,
died"
The citation and award to Hos
pital Apprentice Carl O. Kingsbury,
N. S. N, was presented for work
identical to that done by Schaffner.
Kingsbury, however did not lose
his life.
Corp. Walcott Wichenbaugh OF
the marines was awarded the cross
for having ION April p with excep-
tional GOODNESS and devotion to duty
while under fire near the enemy
lines, rescued his severely wounded
leader, Second Lieut.. A. L. Sund-
vale, from the hands OF the enemy"

Schmitz Of the infantry says:

company against superior enemy
forces, he advanced single handed

THE WAR CHEST IDEA.

Several cities, wearied by the in
cessant demands ior funds for war
relief organizations, have adopted
the war chest idea. The plan is to
make one big campaign u year for
donations to a huge city war chest.
The money received is apportioned
among the various relief organiza-
tions, leaving a good-sized balance
with which the mayor may meet
emergencies as they arise.
The individual citizen cannot in
vcstigate every appeal. He wants to
be generous. but he doesn't want TO
be imposed upon. Moreover. he re-
sents the drain upon his time and
energy of repeated and insistent
small demands.
Those in charge of the war chest
investigate the organizations. and
eliminate all but those considered
essential. Thus the giver knows that
his money will be used as it ought
to be used. And he gives one lump
sum, in proportion to his income,
paid either at once or in install
mcnts, as he prefers. The city war
relief is then financed, and he is
freed from further Fostering for an
other year
Columbus. Ohio, adopted this
idea several months ago with i'm
mense success. a number of cities
in New York state followed almost

throughout the country have been

ton, so far as can be learned. Cleve-

This. as can be seen, takes care OF
all the necessary war work in a
lump. The citizen who gives to the
chest is relieved from all further re-
sponsibility except for his local
charities. which. war or no war, are
always with him.

PLANT POTATOES FOR HOME VSF

tatoes for the use of family of five
during the winter. AT present there
is surplus of old potatoes on The
market and sufficient seed can be %
tanned at reasonable prices. 1t is sug
gested therefore that seed be used
more literally than last year, and that
II to Is bushels of sGSd be used per
acre.
1t is also urged that city authorize,
and managers of large corporations
arrange for the use of unoccupied
land and have it plowed, prepared and
assigned for potato growing 1t is
suggested that they could purchase
seed in large quantities and furnish it
to the growers at price just enough
above cost to cover handling and
shrinkage. Where fertilizers are need
ed they can be secured in the same
manner.
The demand for potatoes as a means
for conserving wheat and other foods
is becoming greater. Because of the
pressure on transportation facilities
it is desirable that more potatoes be
produced near where they are to be
consumed. The large production of
potatoes in home gardens and in
small patches during the season of
1917 is thought to have prevented a
potato shortage last winter in many

Stockholm, June 10-The counter
revolutionary movement in Russia is
growing. The Bolsheviki are living
their last days.
Unless the present regime is over
thrown by the combined efforts of 9th

there will be a counter revolution of
the monarchial supporters in Moscow
and Petrograd, similar to that which
triumphed in Ukraine.
Skoropadsky, aided by the bourge-
oisie and cadets, is ruling Ukraine and
has virtually restored the old regime.
