Big Business Success
HOW 1T ALL CAME ABOUT

Mr.. A. is a notably successful manufacturer. He en-
Joys a wide reputation as being able, progressive, conserva-
tive. Why? His plant keeps running to full capacity
through an efficient selling organization. His statesmen are
active continuously, even though business is offered freely,
securing it with least resistance and expense. When it is
slow, they fight for and get their share.
A pays cash for raw material, hence gets best quality
and lowest prices-a preference over competitors. He takes
advantage of all discounts; everybody wants his business.
He ships promptly and worries over no embargoes. He gets
top prices for goods, because he employs the best labor and
materials and pays good wages. He has no labor troubles.

GASSED CANADIAN HERD COMES HERE
 ID REGAIN HEALTH

After serving in the front line trenches several months, being gassed in the first gas attack of the war and captured, and spending two and half years in German prison camps, private John A. Scott of the Eighth Canadian regiment the Black Devils,' is in Phoenix seeking to recover his health.
 The last six months and more Pri- vate Scott has spent in the United States, speaking for- the British Re cruiting Mission, the Red Cross and other government causes under the Committee on Public Information. TNhis work was stopped almost at the same time by Private Scott'S serious illness with influenza, and the signing of the armistice. He is now discharged hon orably from the Canadian army and in the sunny Arizona climate. trying to recover his health.
 The story he has to tell of life as prisoner in Germany is not calculated to aid Germany's pleas for mercy.
 Private Scott was with the brave little band of soldiers at the second battle of Ypres and on April 25, 1915, saw the first cloud of poison gas come over from the German lines. It was during this battle that he received four shrapnel wounds and a bullet wound and after living on the battle field for two days was taken pris- oner by the Germans, carried to Ger man hospital and operated on without

anaesthetics. After that he was sent to the coal mines of Buer Westerhalt, where prisoners were beaten and starved. Private Scott stated that sU loyal were the British soldiers in this prison mine that they were cutting off their fingers and seeking to have their arms broken to escape service which was contributing to the defeat of their country.
 Hunger seemed to craze the men and more men died from lack of food in German prison camps than from any other cause. Rations were very poor, Q pint of acorn coffee for breakfast and a bowl of soup with chopped grass for dinner and eight ounces of black bread made from rye, potatoes and finely chopped straw. The men lived from day to day, hoping and praying for the coming of the Red Cross par cels, and when they did arrive they would have a decent meal, tea with milk and sugar and perhaps corned beef. or a can or sardines. The Ger mans sent the parcels quickly, as 1t saved them food and made the pris- oners more contented and better work CTS.
 Life in a prison camp became so unbearable that Private Scott decided to risk his life in an escape. With another soldier he stole away under cover of a deep fog one october morn ing in 1917, climbed the wall around the camp and had a good ten minutes start before the guards discovered their absence. For four days and four nights they went without food or sleep travelling by night and hiding in the
 daytime. Finally they crossed the Holland border and were taken in by the Hollanders and given clothes, food and shelter.

 MAY OR JUNE 1913
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

PARIS, Saturday, Jan. 11.-A man. moth military Olympic meet, to be held in Paris in May or June, under the aus pices of the American army, for ath- letes from all the allied fighting forces, is projected in plans announced tonight. General Pershing, the American con- mander- in chief who is taking a keen interest in the plans, is sending a per sonal letter to the commanders in chief of the armies of all nations, with whom the United States has been as sociated during the war, inviting the officers and men to participate.
 Twenty-one allied countries will be asked to take part, and it is planned that the games will surpass any other athletic competition ever conducted in the history of sports. The games will be financed entirely by the American ar my, in corporation with the welfare agencies now operating with it.
 The French government and the French army have given their approval of the plan and have promised their hearty cooperation.
 General Pershing's letter of invita- tion to the French army. which is a duplicate of Those sent to the comman- ders of other armies. follows:
 To Foster Relations
 The officers and men of the Amer ican expeditionary forces, being keenly appreciative of the splendid relations which exist among those who have borne arms in the great common cause, and which in the prsent instance have so happily developed into such deep feelings of mutual respect and admir- alton, are most anxious to preserve and strengthen this relationship in every way possible.
 NOW that active military operations have ceased, they believe that nothing could be more conductive to this end, than to gather in friendly competition on the field of sport, representative of the armies of each of the nations which have so long been associated together in the stern struggle for the right
 Accordingly. they have decided tc organize an inter allied athletic meet ing to be held in the Colombes Stad- ium, Paris. during the month of May or June. 1919, in which officers and men of all these armies shall be eligible to take part

until you are able to say it without dropping a stitch, because it is going to be one of your pet expressions from now on. For eulachon is the magic word that is expected to reduce your living bills, take food pirates out of the excess profits class and leave you with something to rattle in your pockets be- sides your fingers.
 E7ulachon, in short, is a fish, one of the few remaining ocean, going fishes that have not been cornered by those patriots who do their bit by making others do without il. The bureou of fisheries, at Washington, which is seek ing a New York opening for the eula- chon insists that it may be had cheap. That may be the case now, but no one will be surprised to learn that by Tues day or Wednesday. eulachon has moved from the dishes marked x are ready" section to the more exclusive "chafins dish specials" department
 A little gossip about the life and achievements of our new candidate for cold storage is now in order. The eu- lachon has maintained submarine bases off the Pacific coast for many years, but has not made much social headWay with the residents of that country.
 For some reason or other the natives have refused to take the eulachon to their bosoms-the inside of course. For this treatment they are reproached by the bureau of fisheries, which refers to the eulachon as the valuable but ne glected fish of the Pacific coast and then goes on to speak of tits intrinsic value and excellence"
 The eulachon is constructed along the general lines of a smelt, with a smaller waist line than the latter the head and l tail being so close together in some l instances that they appear to be on the same end. As this makes it difficult to tell which way the fish are going, it is practically impossible to catch them with a line. Frequently they are mis- taken for smelts, which they and the B. of F. consider anything but compli- mentary. The B. of F. says they are much richer and fatter and far superior
 in flavor. No, it won't be necessary to | go out to the Pacific coast to get them They are now on sale in tbis city | Demand eulachon froom your fish dealer. Take no other. The bureau of | fisheries will send you recipes, which

POLK NOW ADMITS
 BRITISH STATEMENT
Republican A. p. Leased Wire]

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12--Great Brit aims proposal that the allies and the United States enter into negotiations with all Russian factions, referred to at Paris yesterday, by Foreign Minister Pichon, with an emphatic statement that France would not deal in any way with "the criminal regime of the bol- sheviki," was transmitted to the state department here on January 3. by the British embassy. It was not sent to the American peace delegation, because state department officials assumed it would be delivered directly at Paris but since it now appears this was not done, it will be forwarded at once
 Acting Secretary Polk disclosed this today, correcting. a statement he made yesterday when NJ. Pichon's action was brought to his attention. MT. Polk ls- sued statement in which he said:
 "The question was asked me, as l understood it, by newspaper man yes terday afternoon, as to whether a pro- posal had been made to have delegates from the bolsheNists attend the peace conference. and rference was made to NJ. Pichon's statement. Not having seen MT. Pichon's statement, l did not con- meet the question with the proposal re- ferred to in the memorandum from the British charge, which rad been received by the department, and I therefore re- piled that no such proposal had been received I wish to assume fuu respon- sibility for the misunderstanding.
