No Armistice with Germs.

My neighbours son is seriously i'll
with influenza. A few mornings ago
he complained of a cough and asked
to be allowed to stay home from
school, but his mother smiled know
ingly and said: Il wouldn't worry
about little cough now; the inf1u-
enZa epidemic is over. You had bet
ter run along" At noon, the boys
cough was worse; he was sneezing
constantly and had high fever. Then
the mother realized that, although the
epidemic had passed, that did not
mean that influenza had entirely dis
appeared. 1t is still present and will
continue to cause serious trouble the
rest of the winter.
Do not stop being careful! Keep
away from people with colds. Every
time they cough, sneeze, laugh or ev-
en- talk, they send fine spray of
moisture out into the air. Iy you do
not realize this, hold q mirror be-
fore your mouth as you talk and see
! the drOplets which collect upon it.
This spray from the nose or mouth
of person with any sort of cold
contains hundreds of germs. If you

breathe some of these dangerous

Getting your feet wet or sitting in
a draft will not give you cold un-
less you have these germs within you.
Therefore, keep away from the germs.
Keep away from people with colds,
even though they be members of your

HEAD OF PLATTEVILLE COMPANY
TELLS OF DAYS UNDER FIRE.
BEST WISHES TO ALL.


Captain Harvey Wiedman writes
his friend Prof. Russell. as follows:
Nov. Is, 1918.
Prof. v. NJ. Russell.
Dear Sir:
My memory was given a jog today,
when Sangster received the "Pion-
eer."
You wished me Xmas greetings a
year ago-I am sending you the same
and few words from "Over Here"
The Pioneer is very interesting to
me, though not an alumnus, and the
many strange faces and names only
go to show what a short year can do
for an institution.
Lieutenant Sangster is now in the
hospital with slight wound and dys-
entery, but ought to be back any day
now.
The majority of your former stu
dents are still with my company.
Ross E. Shuman is now a Lieuten-
ant in the bolloon service
Homer Ralph is at an artillery
school awaiting commission. One of
your former pupils of the 1918 class,
| have recommended for the d. S. G.
distinguished Service Cross and he
may be commissioned also.
Now that it is about all over ex-
cept the shouting, one can tell few
things, being my own censor, to a
certain extent We have been at the
boche continuously from June 10 to
Nov. with the exception of seven
days rest, being in four sectors, Al
SAGE, Chateau Thierry, scissors and
Meuse.
Our last battle which we left two
days before the armistice went into
effect, was the longest and hardest
Co. e lost three killed and % wound
ed. We were under shell fire AZ days,
but fortune seemed to be with us.
Now that it is all over I often won
der why we are alive today. Every
one is pleased with peace and espe-
cially the French. My only regret is
that we are not among those in the
Army of Occupation. The boche had
bette agree to our terms or hell will
be turned Loose upon them.
Everyone wonders now when we
go home. We have turned in all our
horses (only had 81 left out of 1919
all harness and caissons. Will get
De Lanseit soon re-equipped, then to
the rear or front.
There will be an awful slaughter
of the innocent coolies that day.
Not much news for you get that
ahead of us, so will close. Give my
regards to Royce and Billy Williams.
Wishing you and yours a most en-
joyable holiday, 1 am,
Yours in the Service,
Harvey d. Weidman,

If he does l may be coming into Ian

Sugar Situation Again.
There seems to be some misunder-

just what the new sugar rules are.
Merchants may now sell as much SUI
gar as they desire to individuals, and
you need no longer keep a record of
your sugar sales.
Consumers.
Consumers should not purchase or
have in their possession at any one
time more than sixty days supply
of sugar, as having more than this

to be boarding and there is still a

WASHBURN Wins
Ichabods Defeat st. Mary's
After Bitter Struggle.
Blue Comes Thru Without In
jury; Ready for Haskell.
BY WIN. D. WOLFE.

Washburn took the measure of the
St. Mary's collegians Saturday after
noon after a long and bitter struggle.
The final score was 10 TO 0 in favor
of the blue warriors of Topeka, but the
score falls far short of the real story
of the game.
Washburn kicked off to St Mary's,
Lane promptly returning the ball to
the fifty-yard line. In five off-tack.le
plays coming in quick succession, St.
Mary's scored three first downs The
ball was worked to within striking dis
lance of the Washburn goal and was
lost on downs. Lindell punted fifty
yards. And the same old story was
repeated. 1t was the effort expended
in the first quarter which spelled the
final defeat of the st. Mary's team.
st. Mary's Forced.
In the first quarter Washburn made
one first down from scrimmage. In
fact Washburn put the ball in play
from scrimmage just four times in the
first quarter. 1t was a kicking duel
with Washburn having much the bet
ter of it. St. Mary's was forced to use
her backs all thru the first quarter,
using up the effort and endurance of
the men.
In the second quarter it was a game
of see-saw with the ball just outside
St. Mary's territory most of the time.
Washburn'S first score came in this
sector. With the ball on her own
fifteen-yard line, St. Marys attempted
to punt Ballantyne, Washburn
guard, broke thru, took the ball on his
chest for a bounce back over the st.
Mary's goal Hanzlitt falling on the
oval for a touchdown. LindeH kicked
goal.
This first touchdown was made less
than one-half minute before the final
whistle for the first half.
In tho second half ST. MarV'S came
back strong. rushing the Washburn
line for substantial gains, and circling
the ends for good yardage. Washburn
stiffened on her own 15yard line and
began a march down the field. Fourth
down on St. Mary's 20-yard line, and
with the goal at an impossible angle
for drop kick. Crawford went in for
Harshman. Lindell. on a fake end run
forward passed to Crawford across the
st. Mary's goal. Lindel1 failed on the
kick out. Score, Washburn 13, st.
Mary's 0.
The last quarter was kicking game
on the part of Washburn and a des-
perate effort on the part of st. Mary's.
Not for an instant did the collegians
show signs of despair. They fought
until they dropped in their tracks, and
in the last part of the last quarter
many of them did just that. In fact,
requirements were so frequent in the
st. Mary's lineup in the last quarter
that nearly every substitute on the
Catholic team was in the game.
With the ST. Mary's game safely in
the win column and with the men in
fine shape, Washburn is ready for the
battle with the Haskell Indians in To-
peka Thanksgiving daV

GIFTS FOR ORPHANS
Topeka School Children VIII Rcmem
Der Them Next Wednesday.

The school children of Topeka will
observe their annual remembrance of
the Topeka Orphans home Wednes-
day, November %. For thirty years.
the schools of the city have offered a
contribution to the home one day each
fall. The pupils bring gifts to their
school, and the supplies are sent to the
home. A conveyance will call Wednes-
day afternoon at every school in town
to take the gifts to ti:e home.
The Topeka Orphans home now
shelters twenty rotherless and father
less children. There are other chill
dren who should be taken care of
there, and more will have to be en-
tered in the home this winter. The
institution is greatly in need of the
help that the school children can give
this wear
