CATHOLIC BOYS JOIN
WAR WORK CAMPAIGN
Girls, Too, viii Stand With Them
Behind Every Fighter
at the Front.

To put behind every Catholic fighter
in France the support of one boy or
girl in every parish throughout the
United States is the plan of the Ma
tional Catholic War Council for back
ing the Victory Boys and Victory
Girls Earn and Give" Division of the
United Work War Campaign to raise
$170,500,O00 "for the boys over there"
during the week of November Ills.
Through diocesan, county and parish
organizations, the rallying of one
youngSter for every man who has gone
to war in every community is already
under way. By their own earnings,
and not by contributions, it is expect
ed that these sturdy little sponsors
for the boys abroad will each raise at
least five dollars for the joint well
fare work of the Y. NJ. c. A., 7. w.
c. A., National Catholic War Coun-
Gill; including the Knights of Colum-
bus, War Camp Community Service
Jewish Welfare Board, American Ii
brary Association and Salvation Army.
Boys and girls in every Catholic
parish throughout the United States
are already being picked to represent
each fighting man who has left their
church for the front. In every home
that flies service flag little brothers
and sisters, sons and daughters, are
eagerly volunteering to look out for
the share of their family fighter in the
huge joint welfare campaign for all
the boys abroad.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. s'i+ffi'
PLACARD WARFARE GOT
THE GOAT OF B0CHES

With the American Army in
France.-It was a quiet week
on one of our Lorraine sectors,
where American and German
trenches run close together. The
! sun came up one morning on a
huge pIacard hoisted from the
! German front line and bearing
,, this in English:
"Welcome, Yankees, of the
. BlanketyBlank division. Did you
bring coffins with you?"
A couple of hours later this
sign, in German went up on our
front line:
"No, but we brought lot of
He'll"
The next morning the Ger
! mans opened with this one:
! yankees, spend the day in
7 prayer. We kill you tonight"
And this was the answer from
I our trenches:
Germans, give your hearts
J and souls to Jesus, because
3 we've got your goats"
I Something about this sign an
gered the Boches. They riddled
it with rifle bullets and thereup-
on the placard warfare was off.

TERR0RS GIVEN INDIAN NAMES
Mrs. Wilson Credited With idea That
Really Has a Good Deal to Be
eaId In lts Favor.

Selecting names for the many new
vessels soon to slide from American
ways Is a task needing patience and
application. It IL one Of the duties Of
Assistant Secretary Roosevelt of the
navy department, who. though he hnds
many volunteer assistants. Is always
hard pressed In his pursuit Of suitable
names. The wife Of President Wilson
has now come to his aid with list OF
names.
Mrs. Wilson u q descendant Of Po-
cahontas. The names ehe suggests
may be calculated to spread terror
among the enemies Of America afloat-
They are taken from Indian history.
When an enemy vessel sees the Sin
namahoning approaching flying the
Stars and Stripes, the captain Il likely
to think one Of the devils Of the deep
Ii in pursuit II the Sinnamahoning Is
followed by the Sisladobsis and the
Eisladobsis by the Skaneateles and the
Shawangunk-all names conferred b
the presidents wife-the enemy may
well believe that the day Of Legendary
sea terrors has returned.
Suppose. again, that the Saccarappa.
the Sagaporack, the Tobesofka and the
Tonganoxie were to sail forth together.

Or beneath that would court enccunees

DEAD SHOTS IN CONGRESS
Any Company Are Natives Of
Arkansas and Arizona.

II all the members and officers OF the
house and senate were drafted for
service on the firing lines In France.
there would be two veterans who
would prove themselves to be the
equal Of most marksmen Of France or
England or any other country. The
Washington Post says there are very
few good shots In either house Of con-
gress, It is said, and no member of
either body can compare with Jerry
South Of Arkansas, chief clerk OF the
house Of representatives, as a rife
shot. Mr.. South was known In Arkan-
sas as the best shot In that part Of
the country In his younger days, and
he Is still there with the eye. The
other man under the dome is Senator
Mark Smith Of Arizona.
It il very difficult thing to put I'VE
shots In a silver dollar at hundred
yards, yet Jerry South has done 1t q
dozen times. Senator Smith has tried,
he said, 1--WE thousand times, perhaps,
to do the same thing, but the best he
has ever done was to plant four shots
Always one would 60 outside or cling
% the outer edge Of the dollar. He at
tributed his failure to imperfection Of
powder or shell. Or the within Of the
wind. The senator said he had even
tried placing Z rife n q wise and see
ing that nothing moved the gun, but
Invariably one shot would fall OF IT.
