Y. N. C. A. SERVICE
WITH The ITALIAN ARMY

No more popular man throughout
the state, who has left Louisville, was
b. Harris Todd, who recently resign
ed as Division Passenger Agent for
the Southern Railway and has accept
ed oversee duties in the Y. NJ. C. A.
He will sail for Italy within a few
days to work with the Italian army.
He has given up lucrative position
and is now putting his whole soul in
to the new work and writes his
friends in Kentucky that he is highly
pleased.
Purpose The purpose of this ser
vice is to help win the war by coop
Grafton with the Italian authorities
in the maintenance and reinforce
ment Of the morale of the Italian
army, through actual development Of
the efficiency and welfare Of the men
and through active evidence of our
own feeling of brotherhood for Italy.
Need Of the Work. 'The Italian
army is fine body of men. finely Of
ficered; but three forces which oper-
ate in all armies are specially injur-
ious to army morale owing to the
conditions Of warfare in Italy; the
war WEAKNESS which affects all arm
les long in the field, the enforced
idleness Of great bodies of men not
actually engaged at the front. and
the insidious and energetic enemy
propaganda.
Method. The Y. NJ. C. 4. affords
comfort, warmth, light. place for
social gatherings. books and papers,
writing materials, music, lectures,
talks, English classes, indoor games,
outdoor sports. 1t is organized

Army Cooperation. The y. ". c.
A. receives greater cooperation from
the Italian army than from any other.
The huts and their furniture are pro
vided free. Supplies are furnished
at minimum cost. Free Transports

personnel. An officer is assigned 20
each hut to serve as agent de liaison
between the Association and the mil
itary authorities, and one or more
soldiers are assigned to each hut as
orderlies.
Organization. The work in Italy
is in direct charge of DIR. John S.
Nollen, who has his headquarters in
Bologna. From these headquarters
there depend several army Y. NJ. c.

INSIDIOUS HUN
PROPAGANDA.

Encouraging the feeling that the
war will soon be ended, now that the
Yanks are in the field in force and
taking the offensive, is one Of the
most insidious and effective forms Of
present day Hun propaganda. And
almost every day you hear it, in most
cases unconsciously being put forth.
For the average person who adj
vances this idea. and possibly really
believes it, is uneonsciously playing
the Hun game.
He is just as uiconsciously Hun
victim; one who is later to be rudely
awakened, disappointed and possibly

sential that he should have acquired
the American spirit. and that he
should have a virtually perfect speak
ing knowledge Of English. His
knowledge Of Italian would prove a
great convenience, but his special
value would lie in his being repres-
entative Of America to Italy.
Official Restrictions. The work is
not open to a man under S2 or over
so II is not open to any man of
Italian birth or parentage, whether
naturalized or not, under as. Ii is
not open to any one who was born in
an enemy country, OF to any one
either Of whose parents was born in
an enemy country.
Allowance. The Association pro-
vides each man with an allowance
sufficient for his own travelling and
living expenses while in the servicc 9.
and provides his family, IL necessary.
with a small allowance for their e<-
penses at home.
Training. All men accepted for
this service receive a special two
weeks training course at Columbia
University, in which they are train
ed in methods of performing the
specific types of service that will

SIRE.
The end Of the war isn't IN sight
by any means.
Only in one short sector along the
Swiss border is the fight on German
soil.
Germany still holds nearly all Of
Belgium. a great broad section of
northern France, thousands Of miles
Of Russia. and her control Of the
Balkans is absolute.
Before the end can come all this
must he wrested from her.
THE FINISH MUST BE FOUGHT
OUT on GERMAN SOIL.
Uncle Sam isn't deluded Neither
is England nor France. Nowhere is
preparation for greater effort than
ever before diminishing
Uncle sam is planning right now
to raise si6, 900, 900 900 for the next

The RETIRING Farmer.

But they are turning owe. to their
boys The active farm work.
And in some localities the reason
rs no secret.
IT is MERELY AN EFFORT TO
SAVE THEIR SONS FROM The

THE PEOPLE of Milford will have
to accept the assessment of property
in the incorporated limits for the next
four years, as it has been made. There
Is no objection to the man who made
the assessment or his work-fOr it is
excellent under the system which has
been followed for the past thirty-five
years or more-but it is the system
which is at fault, and which the peo-
pie of Milford need to be enlightened
about Milford needs new system
for making assessment of the prop
erty on which taxes are to be levied.
Briefly, there should be one set of men
to go upon and make the valuation
of the land, which should be surveyed
by a competent surveyor and plotted
accurately to the fraction of an inch
and that should be as far as that set
of men be permitted to go. Then an
other set of men who are skilled and
familiar with the cost of building ma
terials and the cost of labor necessary
to erect property should go upon the
property of the town and fix the real |
value of each property to construct. |
Then there should be a system of |
considering and adjusting the deter |
ioration of all kinds of property, and |
also of its increase of values, or its |
loss of value because of location, etc. |
This will cost the town some money /
to inaugurate, but there would result |
a square deal for every man. We
again say that the Assessor and the
Town Council have probably done as
well as their predecessors, and pos
sibly better, but the fact remains that
there are a few glaring inequalities,
which cause much criticism, and this
has always been the result of the sys-
tenn which Milford has followed in
assessments of property. 1t
will probably be necessary to get a
in this direction for Milford
thru the legislature, and while at it,
t will be well to get a business sys-
.em Of town government, by making

WITH CONTINUED adjuration to
save food and deprive themselves for
the sake Of saving meats and cereals
which are so badly needed by our
friends in Europe, it seems almost un-
believable that wilful waste is per-
mitted by those who are building the

Reputable farmers have made state
ments that they have seen in the slop
barrels at the kitchens of the commits
sary at Fort Salisbury meat, bread
and other food, which would have been
a crime at any other time. not to men

THERE HAS BEEN caustic criti-
cism of the Kent County Levy Court
by Dover local papers and by a local
correspondent, for city papers who
writes from Dover, because of the
awarding of the contract to remodel
and build the addition to the County
Courthouse. 1t appears that the Levy
Court gave the contract to a Philadel-
phia company at figure which the
objectors claim is twenty thousand
dollars above what contractors in Kent
County would have done the work for.
Here is a case where the members ~

Gently resented criticism of that body
by this paper. There is no question
by any person who knows anything
about political affairs, but that Kent
County is run upon democratic bust
ness ideas, and whenever the wisdom
Of these ideas is questioned by others
outside the democratic camp, there is
a general alarm sounded, and the
praise of everything connected with
the business of the Levy Court is pro-
claimed afar. Now the facts from a
disinterested standpoint show that
there have been as many and more
mistakes made. in county government
under the democratic administration,
as there we're under the republicans.
The bonded debt has been increased
under the guise of building improved
roads, when there has been the min
imum mileage Of road work done, and
the money is largely gone after few
years use Of dirt roads built under
bond issues. The Kent County Levy
Court has been compelled to keep
within a certain cireumseribed line OF
business, because of the excellence of
the two men who have filled the office
OF Comptroller. Charles Luff, a re-
publican, organized the Office and
started it going along business lines,
and Harry B. Grieves, a democrat, has
continued the excellent work to the
present time. The Kent County Levy
Court has probably some good reason
why the contract for the county by@s1-
Ing work should be sent to an Sol
state to be executed, and the how3enS Z
the Dover politicians may serve "
purpose Of bringing this reason to the
public notice.
