TAKING OUT THE JUNK"
BY George E. Bowen of The vigilant'

Il
military necessity" has made junl
out of good bit Of civilization.
There's larger, more imperative "nc
cessity" than the Prusson one-and b.
| cause of it.
1t has to do with taking the "iunk'
out of junkerism,
Just as we are doing.
II must be a clean job.
Meeting the demon of destruction with
| the service of determination.
Being careful not to allow the Junk
taken out of the old system to be re-
placed ythe bunk" of another as bad
or worse,
The old firm of Bunk and Junk" has
had its day.
Human necessity has forced it into So
cial and political bankruptcy, where it
must assign all its abused opportunities
and exploited assets to the new democ-
racy.
We are to Junk" the junker for good
and all and everywhere--for all time
He can't be allowed to bob up in any
land after the surgeons of civilization
have taken out his main works
1t is going TO be severe operation.
As bad as going over the top" to per-
form it.
We must all help.
We all are going to.
1t won't be a free clinic.
Nothing like it.
Beside the blood and waste and an.
guish, mostly it will be cost, expense
debt, bonds, interest, interest and mo-e
interest.
Enough to keep US busy.
And attentive.
And determined.
So here's for the heroic remedy:
Unjunking the junker.
With the dollars of democracy.
With devotion unto DEATH
With the "Will to Win"
For a world redeemed from Bunk and |
funk"

hang the case by the top. They will dry
quite well and it will save a good deal
of wear on them
Sprinkle clothes lightly, wrap in a

the moistened clothes to steam and pre-
vents wrinkling. In fifteen minutes the
clothes will be ready and unusually easy

Claimed by Actual

M. Leagues said that in February
March and April 1928 French steamers
and 1888 French sailing vessels passed
through the danger zone, where a few
months ago losses by torpedoing had
been very heavy. Not single ship was
sunk.
On the other hand, he said, the number
of submarines destroyed had increased
progressively since January in such pro-
portion that the effectiveness Of enemy
squsdrons cannot be maintained at the
minimum required by the regulations
The number of enemy U-boats destroyed
in January, February and March was far
greater in each month than the number
constructed in the same months. In Feb
ruary and April the number of subma-
rines destroyed was three less than the
total destroyed in the previous three
months
These results, the minister declared,
were due to the methodical character of
the war against submarines; to the close
coordination of the allied navies; to the
intrepidity and spirit animating the Off
GERS and crews of naval and aerial squad
rons and to the intensifcation of the use
of old methods and the employment of
new ones.

Pneumonia Plague in China.

Boston, Feb. 23.-The pneumonia
plague has broken out in Shansi pro
vince, China and has assumed such
proportions that all northern China Is
seriously threatened, according to ad-
vices received today by the American
board Of foreign missions from men,
bers Of its staff In north China
The reports Of the missionaries ex-
press the fear that was folt n this
country when the appearance Of this
deadly pestilence was reported in
December by the Associated Press. I'm
checked In northern China, 1t would
prove more devastating than famine,
flood and war combined. A statement
issued by the board says:
This pneumonia plague Is parttcul-
arly virulent. Practically no one who
becomes victim Of 1t RECEIVERS. It IS
the same disease that ravaged Mon
golla five years ago and carried Oft
1000 or 10000 people before 1t was
checked"

help. There has been raised in this
city, with practically no help from the
county, $2.156.so for this purpose. All
this money has now been spent for 600
watches ana 600 medals. Because Of
the demand for wrist watches they
have increased In cost from $2.26 to
$40. and no profit has been paid any
of the dealers who have been buying
them for the committee. Tho price Of
continues to advance, and be-
