which their early battle honOrs were
won. hut the navy-whOse record Of
fame dates from much earlier pc

followed the policy c. perpetuating
bcr famous names. The name Of a
famous battleship Is handed down TO

WHEN DOUGHB0Y SCORED
Officers Sarcastic Fling Fell Decided.
Iy Flat Before the Ready Wit of
Complaining Private.

1t isn't often that a private has any
chance TO give an officer as good as he
gets, but the following from Camp
Kearny would seem to indicate that it
sometimes happens.
The orderly officer was asking for
complaints: when up sprang a private
who declared that he had not received
his proper ration of butter.
Officers as a rule don't like grum-
blers and this one was no exception.
Noticing tiny mOrsel of butter on
one of the doughboy's boots he re-
marked scathingly:
Don't get your proper ration of
butter? There's half of it on your
boots ~
"Yes. sir" retorted the private, re-
garding the tiny spot gravely, "just
exactly half sir"

Until now there never has been any
concerted movement for the removal
of snow from the country's highways
in winter. Efforts in that direction
have been confined TO city streets.
Now that the war and the resulting
strain on transportation have brought
about the use of motortrucks as
freight carriers. the federal govern
ment figures that the question of keep
ing our highways clear in the cold
months is worth consideration. AS
result the council of national defense
has been giving attention to this prob
lem of snow removal. In the northern
sections of the United States roads
during the winter become almost i'm.
passable for heavy traffic on wheels.
If the new method of motortruck
transportation is to become really
worth while. there will have to be
some general effort to keep the high
ways clear of snow drifts and mud
holes.

One of the interesting suggestions
as to a Republican candidate came
from a shrewd political observer on
the Democratic side of the senate. He
remarked that the Republicans would
be likely TO go West for a candidate in
order to get the geographical support
which nomination of that kind would
be likely to insure. In that case. he
