Flames Sweep Business Area.

Bristol, Va-Tenn.-Five large bust
ness houses, including the Dominion
National Bank, were destroyed by fire
which for time threatened destruc-
tion of II large portion of the business
district. The flames were checked only
after the arrival of fire companies
from Kingsport, Tenn, in response to
a call from the mayor Of Bristol The
loss was estimated at $1,5O00OO. The
fire started in the five-story structure
on State street occupied by the Mitch
ell-Powers Hardware Company. As
the iiremen arrived there were a series
of explosions of dynamite and shells
in the building, and nearby structures
were set fire by flying embers. So
far as was reported there was no loss
of life.

ASKS WILSON TO AID LEAGUE
Former Foreign Secretary and vis-

President.

London, Dec. 30.-President Wilson,
at the American embassy today. re-
ceived a delegation from the League
of Nations union.
II was headed by viscount Grey,
former secretary for foreign affairs.
and II included the archbishop Of Can
terbury aud ViscOunt Bryce, former
British ambassador to the United
States.
The president, In addressing the
delegation, said:
Gentlemen, | am very much compli.
mented that you should come In per-
son to present this address and have
been delighted and stimulated to find
the growing and prevailing interest In
the subject Of the league Of nations
not only growing interest, merely.
but growing purpose which l am
sure will prevail. and II is delightful
that members of the government
which brought this nation into the
war because of the moral obligations
based upon treaty should be among
those who have brought me this paper.
because on the other side of the wa
ter we have greatly admired the mo-
tives and subscribed to the principles
which actuated the government of
Great Britain In obeying that moral
dictate"

THE SCAR BEARERS

Hundreds OF American soldiers
from Privates all the way up the
line 20 General Pershing will return
from France decorated for con
splcuous bravery.
Some will wear the Distinguished
Service Medal, some the Croix dc
Guerrc Some will be awarded the
Victoria Cross.
Everyone Of them will have done
some valorous deed Of aggression or
rescue.
But there will be some 50-Odd
thousand who came out Of the fight
more or less disilgured who may
wear no ribbons
These are the scar bearers, the
wounded.
Not one Of them but faced death
IN all the many guises that German
ingenuity Of the most devilish kind
could contrive. But theirs was only
the ordinary chance Of war. Theirs
the misfortune of being struck down
before they had their chance.
Some will not be permanently
disabled. But thousands will be.
And everyone that is, everyone that
took his chance over there must
have his chance once more over
here.
Uncle Sam has worked out an
elaborate plan Of rehabilitation for
these wounded heroes. II they need
medical attention after they return
they will get il. II they need special
training 10 iii them for such work
only as their condition will permit
them to do they will get that train
ing. Whatever assistance is neces-
sary they will have.
And Uncle Sam Will bear the ex-
pense gladly gratefully; for his
obligation is one that can never be
adequately met.
All Of us must remember this in
connection with the next Liberty
Loan. Not all of the money will 60
for martial needs, for peace en-
forcements or for the scores Of other
demands the governmental plans
viii precipitate.
Much Of II will be devoted to max
ing payment for the services of those
who did their best TO pay the price
of world freedom.
For them too much cannot be
done.

INFLUENZA

Influenza has again broken out in
Boston and other cities nOtwith-
standing strenuous efforts being
made To prevent its recurrence. In
New York City there have been re-
ported 20 the Health Bureau an aver
age Of 100 to lbs cases a day for the
last three weeks. but il is claimed
by New York authorities that there
is nothing to be alarmed about and
that occasional cases are likely to
occur during the whole winter, but
il is hoped that even these will dis
appear with the coming Of spring.
In spite Of such assurances the
fear that We may again be visited
with this plague is so prevalent that
a recent meeting in Chic ago of the
American Public Health Association
attracted representative from the
whole United States, and also from
Canada, for the purpose Of discuss
ing possible means of checking the
disease.
In order TO prevent unnecessary
danger in connection with the bring
ing of troops from Europe, the May
or Of New York City has communi-
Gated with the Executive" of the
various debsrkation cities along the
coast, asking that they have the War
Department keep these men in camp
for at least nine days after landing
before allowing them freedom to
return home or to visit elsewhere.
In this connection il is reported
that local health officials at our ma
tional capital are seriously consid-
erlng the closing of all schools,
churches, and places of amusement
in order To prevent a further spread
Of the epidemic which has again APP
peared in rather alarming proper
tions there. IL seems 10 be the con-
sensus Of opinion at Washington
that there is likely to be another
serious spread Of the disease thru
out the country unless effective
measures are taken at once TO pre-
vent it. The Surgeon General ad-
vlses that, at the first sign of a gen.
cral recurrence of the epidemic, all
public schools should be closed, for
the reason that children are par
ticularlY susceptible to il.

Warsaw (By the Associated

concerning the riot in Posen ON
the arrival of Ignace Jan Pader-
ewski, who is on his way here,
says the trouble began when allied
and American flags were holsted
over the City Hall The Germans
demanded that the flags be hauled
down. The Poles refused to &C.
quiesce, whereupon the Germans
brought up machine guns and be-
gun firing In the streets, driving
back the crowds and dispensing
the Polish troops. Finally the
German officials took down the
flags. Meanwhile the Poles reas-
sembled and began to return the
German fire. The Germans pro-
voked another incident by trying
to prevent Paderewski from going
about the streets. The arrival OF
Paderewski and British and Amer
lean officers mas created much en-
--.usiasm here. The hope is ex-
pressed that their arrival will
stamp out bolshevism and prevent
anticipated trouble in Warsaw.
