cape effected through the main en- trance of the jail.
 Day Versions Differ
 Yesterday morning different versions of the attempted jail break were cir culated. O'Neil himself was besieged with callers at his bedside in the dep uty sheriffs dormitory. Prisoners were interviewed. Blame was shifted by one prisoner to another and in consequence the truth of the matter was buried un- der a pile of relative facts and fiction. according to all that could be learneJ in interviews about the sheriff's office during the day. Late yesterday after noon Joe Balsz, who had been on duty all night. went to the sheriffs office to report and after hearing the various accounts of the affair Monday night threw up his hands and exclaimed All stories are different; it's all mixed up now
 McCann Makes Statement One question that was largely al variance was did Wal McCann take | part in the attempted jail break ?' O'Neil says so far as he could make ou | in the confusion of the attack upon hi: | life, Ival McCann did not take part but that he could not swear to it ,: l there were so many about him and h. was grappling to save his life and tho | jail keys in his possession.
 McCann himself made a verba statement that he did not take par against O'Neil but that, instead. h. tried to help O'Neil in the fight agains the other prisoners.

OUR INDIVIDUAL PART.

Some observers think that the most
Characteristic thing about the Ameri-
can soldiers in France, something
which astounds the enemy and eXcites
the admiration of our allies, is the
capacity CT the American soldiers 10
do individual thinking and fighting.
The German fights successfully only
in mass formation, in organized bod
les, while every American soldier has
an initiative and independence of ac-
ton which gives him remarkable eff
ticiency in open fighting. They are
not senseless cogs, but each is an in
dividual working unit in a great fight
ing machine.
Every American at home should
feel an individual responsibility and
do his or her individual part in win
ming the war There is not an Amer
lean citizen who can not help win the
war. The Fourth Liberty Loan
drive, which begins September 2sth.
offers a great opportunity for con-
certed action and for individual act
ion, and the loan will be a tremen-
dous success if each American will
do his or her individual part as each
American soldier in France does his
part Our soldiers deserve such sup
port from the people at home.

ARE THERE FOOD and
SUGAR SLACKERS
IN GARRARD?

Reports are current that the food
regulations are being evaded in Gar
rard county
II is rumored that some persons,
especially those living in the rural
section of the county, esteem it a
mark Of smartness to get around the
regulations and get more than their
amount Of sugar.
Some store more flour than they
are entitled to and feed their surplus
meal to the hogs and chickens Some
make open boasts that sugar is
plentiful in cur house, or that we
don't have to eat cornbread"
Any man who stoops to take ad-
vantage of the distribution of essen
tial foods and get more than his share
is robbing the brave boys he has sent
across the water to fight his battles:
he is taking food out of the mouths
Of starving women and children in
the desolate part of France and Bel
GUM, whose brave men have so long
kept the red tide of invasion from his
home, who have protected his wife
and his girls
Any man who is unwilling to gladly
deny himself in this hour of his eoun-
try's peril, is not worthy the name of
American. He is a poltroon, and it
is the duty Of every American citizen
to whom the flag means anything to
report such evaders to the proper
authorities.

HOMECOMING OF YANKEE
BOYS FROM OVER THERE
NO KNOWLEDGE OF SAIL
ING DATE
Secretary Baker Does Not
Expect Any Entire Division
Before Christmas,

Washington, Nov. 27.-The war
department today was without any
definite information as to when the
first of the Yankee combat divisions
would sail for home. Press dis
patches from overseas today stated
that the Seventy sixth had arrived
at the port of St. Nazaire and was
embarking for home, and that the
Twenty seventh (New York national
guardsmen) had beepswithdrawn and
wonld- embark in ,a.f4 days. "a kT0vsRl
ever, the war department. was uh-'
able to confirm these dispatches, and
Secretary Baker frankly expressed
the belief that no entire divisions
would be home before Christmas.
II don't see how they can be moved
for several weeks" he declared, and,
were / to predict, / would say that
none would return to America before
Christmas" However, it was pointed
out that the returning of these divi-
sions is entirely in the hands of Gen.
Pershing and that he has the author
ity to send them home even without
notifying the war department of his
intention to do so. In view of this,
army officers pointed out that it was
entirely possible that division
might be sent home without the de-
partment having been advised, but
at the same time, they said, it was
quite improbable.

LAST OFFICIAL ACT OF
SECRETARY M'ADOO
SUGGESTS INCREASE OF
SALARIES.
Communication Sent in After
Conference With Pres
ident Wilson,

Washington, Nov. 27.-One of the
last official acts Of Secretary Nc
Adoo before he resigned was to
transmit written suggestion to the
other members of the presidents
cabinet, and to the executives in
their departments as well as in his
own, that they ask congress for sub
stantial increases In salaries and
wages, "all along the line, the house
appropriations committee wasA in
formed today by government officials.
The McAdoo letter, a copy of
which the committee possesses, is
reported to have been written by the
retiring secretary of the treasury
after he had conferred with Presi-
dent Wilson on what he is said to
have described as "a most urgent
necessity for providing government
heads and employees with financial
means sufficient to meet the high
cost of living in Washington and
elsewhere in the country.
1t was at this conference that he
Is believed to have discussed with
the president his inability to live on
his own salary-$12,0 a year
which he afterwards gave as his
reason for resigning.
