FROM FIRE
AT CHURCH

The colored Baptist church, First
and Dakota avenue, is no more. That
is there is practically no church to
be seen there at this time, it having
been destroyed by fire Sunday morn
ing.
The fire department received the
alarm at $3.50 Sunday morning AMI
arrived upon the scene to find the
fire well under way. The building
which was brick, is practically gutted
and the damage was placed at $4,000
by Fire Chief Gattis.
There has been more than the
usual number of church rows over
this particular church, the quarrels
ofthe different factions having been
aired out in the courts on one or two
occasions. At that time one faction
was seeking to depose the minister
While no charges have been made
against any one, officers are of the
opinion that the fire is the result oI
spite work.

DANGER OF GIVING
HUN INFORMATION
MAKE HIM BUY 1T

(By j. w. Pegler, United Press Staff
correspondent
With the American Expeditionary
army, France Jan. 11-(By mail)-
Make the old Bocho pay for all his
information. Make him pay with the
lives of his soldiers and with thous-
ands of shells and days of work.
You are safeguarding a soldiers
life when you put no more in the ad-
dress of your letters to him than is
necessary to identify MIN to the pos
tai forces. You may be giving con-
vincing piece of information to the
Boche if you write to Sammy in
France that the boy next door IS
training in the 24Sth division at
Camp Meade.
The Boche is seining his whole ar
my for information all the time, 1t is
vitality important to him to know
how many divisions of troops we
have in France, where each division
has its headquarters, who commands
the divisions and regiments, when
each expects to go into the line.
Perhaps the Boche thinks the 24Sth
is in France. He has been misin-
formed through some spy. If another
spy carefully unseals your letter to
Sammy and sees that the 24Sth is in
Camp Meade and not in France that
piece of information fits in perfectly
in the jig-saw puzzle of patch work
military intelligence.
Don't put anything on paper that
you wouldn't want the kaiser to see,
is the advice of one military censor
to his men. "Think it over and put
this question to yourself: Would
it do the kaiser any good to know
this9 If it would help the kaiser
don't write it--done even talk abou
it where strangers may hear you"
