Army Draft Age
Remains Same,

The proposition to raise and low
er the army draft age limit failed in
congress last Friday and the limit
81 to 81 still stands. There is
widespread difference Of opinion on
the question-and Congress does
not yet see the necessity Of chang
ing the limit.

Providence never walks out or
quits his job! The walking boss cam
not formulate plans ahead, calling
a strike for a designated hour. The
grand old Mississippi river, guided
and controlled by the hand of
Providence, has for unknown GEN.
turtles, been flowing on to the sea,
with sufficient unbridled power to
operate the machinery of the mid
die west. Mans inventive genius
created the turbine wheel. which
operated and revolved by the ever
flowing current of the river now
produces an electrical current of
100000 horsepower which can be
increased to an unlimited amount.
Power is transmitted to st. Louis
and Intern ediate points, up river
as far as Burlington, Iowa.
To place under mans direct con-
troll this mighty power, it becomes
necessary to construct a dam across
the Mississippi river at Keokuk,
Iowa. where the lower rapids were
formerly located, a menace to boats
and the graveyard of many fine
steamers. Locks around the rapids
at this point now make navigation
absolutely safe. The dam backed
and permanently raised the water in
the river for q distance of approx
mately fifty miles. Much adjacent
property along the banks of the
river and inland was inundated, ne
cessitating condemnation and pur-
chase. The Green Bay district, about
1900 acres of Iowa's richest farm
ing land, was converted into Cooper
or Keokuk lake by the back water.
Houses of one and two stories are
now standing, silent sentinels, rep
resenting abandoned homes, the
depth of water invading the houses
being regulated by the flood gates
of the dam at Keokuk.
This territory is soon to be re-
claimed by the dyke and drainage
pump routes. Levees are now be-
ing built, in fact are nearing COM
pletion, pumps throwing streams
four feet in diameter, are now in
stalled, which when started ring the
death knell or the passing of the
best open duck territory in the Mis-
sissippi Valley. Since the inunda-
ton this lake has been the mecca
for duck hunters.

OBA BATTLE DE LUXE TODAY WHEN TECH CS WITH STRONG LEBANON TEAM
Best Football Battle
of the Season Today

This afternoons football battle on
the Island between Tech and Lebanon
High schools, promised to be the
most exciting contest of the season IN
this neighborhood. Readers of the
Telegraph are familiar by this time
with the record of our great school
bunch; how it is claimed for them
state championship and how wise ex-
perts believe they can wallop teams
of the caliber of Bucknell or GettNs-
burg. Also, every one knows what
hard luck the Tech team has had in
being compelled to forego nearly their
whole schedule. This situation is re-
sponsibie for the school now being
'in the hole" financially to the extent
of $500. and hence it is the duty OF
everyone to help out with his coupon
over there to-day. Nearly every
school ana college in the country mas
suffered this year.
Lebanon got in town early TO-DAY
and a big crowd of enthusiasts from
over the Rhine accompanied team
which looked to be the goods. IN the
van was the renowned Hobey LlSht'
formerly OF L. of =. and in early Gays
a student at Lebanon High. with hlln
Park Wilder, head coach. The array
was formidable, but Tech was not
alarmed. Not this season has the
team been forced TO its supreme eHott.
The game was scheduled to start at
$50. and before that time Tech and
Lebanon rooters jazzed up things at
q lively rate, so that big crowd was
expected even thouSh the date had
been made so recently. The teams
lined UP like this:

PERSHING LAUDS
YANKEE SOLDIER
IN NEW VISION
Says Yankee Has Paid Debt
of Gratitude to French
Nation
By Associated Press

American Headquarters in France,
Nov. 3O.-Victory won by the Amer
lean soldiers in hard fighting and at
the cost of great sacrifices was the
Thanksgiving Day gift to the Amer
lean nation and the American Army,
General Pershing declared in an ad-
dress at general headquarters on
Thanksgiving Day. The debt of graf
itude to Lafayette has been paid and
the invader driven back to defeat, he
said. The American commander-in-
chief paid tribute to the dead and
earnestly urged the soldiers to thank
God for the victory. He declared
new vision of duty to God and coun-
try had come to all. General Per-
shing said in part:
Assemble With Full Hearts
Fellow Soldiers, never in the his
tory of our country have we, as
people, come together with such full
hearts as on . this greatest of all
Thanksgiving Days. The moment
throbs with emotion, seeking to find
full expression. Representing the
high ideals of our countrymen and
cherishing the spirit of our fore
fathers who first celebrated this fes-'
tival of thanksgiving, we are proud
to have repaid a debt of gratitude
to the land of Lafayette and to have
lent our aid in saving civilization
from destruction.
INSCRIPTIONS Invader Driven Back
The INSCRIPTIONS invader has
been driven from the devastated
scenes of his unholy conquest. The
tide of conflict which during the dark
days of midsummer threatened to
overwhelm the allied forces has been
turned into glorious victory. AS the
sorads of battle die away and the
beaten foe hurries from the field. it
is fitting that the conquering armies
should pause to give thanks to the
God of battles, who has guided our
cause Alright.
I'm this hour of thanksgiving, our
eternal gratitude goes out to those
heroes who loved liberty better than
life, who sleep yonder where they
fell: to the MANNED whose honorable
scars testify stronger than words to
their splendid valor and to the brave
fellows whose strong, relentless
blows finally crushed the enemy's
power.

we embarked on the speed launch,
"Minnetonka," for an up-river trip
of seven miles to the entrance to
Cooper Lake. The continuous
standing of back water over the
low lands has killed all vegetation,
trees and buck brush have succumb-
er, are now dead and suffering de-
cay. The river is studded with wing
and bait nets, marked by buoys;
carp, buffalo and rough or coarse
fish are the objective. Nets are
operated under n boundary license
issued by the State of Iowa, which
permits fishing in the Mississippi
river with sein or net with a mesh
not less than two and one-half inch
es. In the interest of fine or game
fish conservation the mesh should
not be less than four inches.
Arriving at Cooper Lake, we were
comfortably quartered in the sum-
mer home of Mr.. Bever, Immediate
ly adjacent to the shooting and fish
ing territory. Fishermen when pull
ing in sein and failing to catch a
fish term the draw a water haul"
We failed to score a single duck,
due to the warm weather, Anticipa-
tion, the lighthouse continually
within, the vision of all hunters,
buoyed our spirits, while the oppor-
tunity to continue with nature and
daily with the life in the open.
brought us back to Chicago, de-
claring the trip success.
We all know of the much-touted
fisherman's luck. Hunters luck is
a different angle. Ducks killed are
accepted results, gratifying and ac-
centuate the enjoyable sensations of
anticipation. A hunter is a fan, who
will go afield day after day without
success, based upon birds brought
to bag, yet he has enjoyed every
minute of his time afield. His men
tai diary is filled with past and pros
pective shooting successes.
Hunting is an art, requiring
thought coupled with experience and
ability to execute. The matching
of wits with birds or animals, en-
downing by nature with self-protec-
tive instincts. A sprig or mallard
will frequently turn a back flip
flop, because a block or wooden de-
coy chanced to lay belly up" Many
are the minor details to be observ-
ed to insure successful shooting, as
the feathered scouts of midair are
natures children inbued with all in
stincts of self-preserVation.
Based upon ducks Killed our trip
was a failure. An an outing, visit
ing bee and sociability we vote our
Cooper Luke duck hunt a bowling
success.

husband more precious than her life,
nor those who, in hidden heroism,
have impoverished themselves to en-
rich the cause, nor our comrades
who in more obscure posts here and
at home have furnished by their toll
