seek to destroy the copper coil in
which the vapor Is condensed. These
coils are difficult to replace. as they
have to be brought from Ohio, which
is nearly 200 miles from the moonshine
district.
City dealers will not always sell coils
to mOuntaineers, and as result the
moOnshlners often have been forced
to employ confederate to make
the purchase for them. When the coil
finally has been secured, the moonshin-
er has the difficult task of taking Il
home unobserved. Arriving at London
he has to conceal 1t In bag of meal or
IN barrel Of Oil. The moonshiner
will then throw the bag over the back
Of mule and proceed on his way to
the still, high In the mountains.
The whisky makers of the Kentucky
and Tennessee mountains do not seek
to be interrupted In their chosen voca-
ton Of making mountain dew" nor do
they desire the society Of the "blue
grass" section TO come near them, fear
Ing that they will suffer ignominy In
comparison. The mountaineers live the
lives they please, regardless Of what
the outside world has prescribed as
conventional. A whole family will
sleep In one room. A man will think
nothing Of drinking quart of whisky
day. The moOnshiners have no use
for newspapers, magazines or books,
and pay little attention to what Is 60
Ing on outside their mountains.
Defend Moonshine Industry.
The moOnshiners have failed to I'M
derstand why the government should
Interfere with their business. They
maintain that they raise their own
corn In land they own. Because of the
lack Of railroad facilities the noun
taineers assert 1t Is impossible to ship
the grain to the cities. The roads are
too billy and rocky to haul the corn
to the villages, and, In order to make
a living for their family. are forced
to manufacture whisky. All the
moOnshiner asks is that the govern
ment keep the "revenuers' away.
The crafty maker Of moonshine al
ways is prepared to back up his logic
by engaging In gun play with any
stranger who disagrees with him, and
II Is because of these precautions that
the government has found It difficult

ture Of liquor In the rough mountain

SAGE AND SULPHUR i. /,

It's Grandmother's Recipe to
Restore Color, Gloss
and Attractiveness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to
get this mixture was to make II at
home, which is mussy and trouble
some. Nowadays, by asking at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" you will get a large
bottle OF this famous old recipe. i'm
proved by the addition of other in
gradients, at a small cost.
Don't stay grayl Try It! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as It does II SO naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with IL and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears. and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, glossy and attractive.

SULDItR STUDENTS IN GREAT BRITAIN

June 19.-(SpeciaL)-On June Q over 2000 American soldier students" will complete the three-months course of study that they have been pursuing at 50 different universities throughout the United Kingdom. Soon afterwards the great majority of them, their army service also completed, will be sailing back to the United States These soldier students, who are all American univer- sity men, were temporarily released from the United States army in France es- pecially to eanble them to continue the studies which their enlistment interrupt ed They have one and all given a good account of themselves while in this coun- try and the delightful experience that they have had of life at English and Scotch universities and of life in Brit ain generally, and the exceptionally fav- orable impression that they have ere ated wherever they have gone, cannot fai to go a long way toward fostering the cordial understanding between the two branches of the Anglo-Saxon race that all sensible persons are anxious to see.
 The idea of enabling the university men in the American army to continue their studies in Great Britain originated with the American Y. M C. A., which took the initial step of approaching the heads of the British seats of learning and found them one and all most willing to place their faculties freely at the disposal of the American soldier students. Early in the history of the enterprise, however, it was taken over officially by the Amer ican army, and has since been adnlinis- tered by G-5 section of the general staff, the head of which is Col.

 Travelling on the train from Wash nston I encountered an American oldier just returned. He was in- lined to be voluble and he gave me

 But, say. them Canadians is the boys, Hell ain't got nothin' on them for fighters"
 The warm. sincere word of. that sol dier Is indicative of the feeling of all Americans for their Canadian brothers in arms.
 Throughout her history Canada has been characterized by an intense love of freedom. In this love of freedom the Canadians resemble the Scotch and the Swiss The conquest of Canada by Wolfe was not subjug ga ton, but a liberation. France was striving to set up feudalism in the new world The victory of Wolfe meant an end to that regime of old world despotism "A happier calamity" writes Parkman, never befell a people than the con quest of Canada by British arms.'' For in that conquesr subjects became citizens.
 Canada profited by the lesson of the American revolution, and jealously guarded her every right. The slight est usurpation of power by England was promptly withstood.

Bartenders. Preservers of Homes


 We shall have, after July first. nc doubt, epdemics of beating. This is not pleasant thought, but we ap- proach it firmly and from a sense oi duty. Let us frankly admit, and now that the bartender has been one of the great bulwarks of the home. For every husband who in years past went to the dram shop and returning, over-stimu- lated, beat his wife. there are doubtless hundreds who would have beat their wives if they had not gone. Countless marriages would have been impossible of endurance without the bartender. who. at times and when needed, changed the tune of an everlasting matrimonial monotony. Has the bartender had any credit for this? Would any good woman ever admit that a bartender made her faithful dull aridity endurable to her husband? The answer is an insuited No" She has unjustly hated him while he lived and ladled. but she will miss him when he is gone

When the Saloon Goes

Charles Stelzle. in World Outlook.
 When one discusses the question of what is going to happen when the sa- looms are closed 1t is important to have in mind the causes which impel men to go to the saloon, outside of what the saloon has itself to offer. For let it be remembered there are other social evils besides the saloon, in which men may find refuge when the saloons are closed, unless the pressures of life are taken off.
 Will the stran of the days work be relieved when the saloons are put out of business? It will for some men, un- doubtedly. Will workingmen have bet ter homes to go to? Many will unques- tionably. But for the great mass of men. the ordinary men of whom there are so many, these blessings may be a long time coming, unless society or the state as a whole sees to it that better social

economic conditions prevail. The strong. independent working man will fight his own battles, and he will carry with him many others of his class, but he cannot do it all-the rest of Us must help.
 It is planned to set up a practical. working substitute for the saloon in the "city street. at the centenary celebration to be held by the boards of missions of the Methodist Episcopal churches, North and South, in Columbus, from June D to July 1S, inclusive, which may be du- plicated in the average community where such an enterprise is needed.

Trouble Among the

This is not lesson in astronomy

stars of the Bouncing Baby Chorus"
of the All Star Minstrels to be pre-
sented at the Opera House next,
Wednesday, June 2stA.
The trouble started with Nick
Breaux asserting that he could kick
higher and more gracefully than any
member. of the cast. This was
promptly refuted by DR.. Bourgeois
and Maurice Shannon, and then the
trouble started. Manager McConiff
refused to referee the contest but
suggested they leave it to the audi
ence, which they have agreed to do,
so If you are walking peacefully
along the street and some sylphlike
figure steals gently up behind you
and kicks off your hat, do not be
alarmed, it is not a Bolshiviki, but
just one of the Bouncing Baby
Chorus" keeping in practice.
The Snow Sisters give promise of
melting the audience, and as this is
probably their last appearance be-
fore going to Grand Opera, the pub
lie will do well to seize this oppor-
tunty to see them.
The special scenic effects for the
added feature have arrived and are
now being installed. The manage
ment refuses to divu1ge the nature of
this act, but assures the Re,:ew that
it is some ACT" The balance of
the cast are too we'll known to need
any comment, and with their special
Jazz Orchestra the best show of the
season is assured.
The surrounding towns have sent
in orders for large blocks of tickets.
so it behooves Morgan Cityites to
reserve theirs now.

German Reply
Published in Full

1
German reply to the Allied Peac,
i Terms, which has just been publish
ed, shows that Germany objected t
practically all of the terms of peace
1.-The reply, which covers ll9 pages
includes an already published lettei
Iby Count Rantzau, written on Ma,
18th, and a section of comments.
| The chief contention of the Ger.
mans is that the Allies, in distinct
Iviolation of their promises made a,
various times before the Armistice
have attempted to conclude a peace
not of justice, but of force. The re.
|! ply also demands oral negotiations
that is negotiated instead of a die
tated peace.
The second chapter of the German
reply is devoted to pointing out the
alleged contradictions" between al
lied professions and allied policy.
There are quotations from speeches
by Mr.. Asquith, Lord Robert Cecil,
Winston Churchhill, and President
Wilson, all of whom stated that the
war was being directed, not against
the German people, but against the
German Government. This state
ment, the reply says, has been utter
ly disregarded; no harder terms
could have been imposed upon any
autocratic government than the pres
ent peace terms imposed upon the
Republic of Germany.
On the face of it this may seem
a just ground Of protest against the
treaty, but it has a deceptive speci-
business. It is true that, early in the
war, certain of the allied statesmen,
and particularly President Wilson
made statements to the effect that
the governments they represented
had no quarrel with the German peo-
pie; that some time after the war
it was generally believed
that the German ruling classes only
were responsible for the war, and
that the great body Of the German
people were only reluctant partici-
pants, driven into the war by their
rulers; however, as the war proceed
I'd, it became more and more evident
that this was to large extent un-
.ure, and that the idea Of military
had been so drilled into
he minds and lives of the whole |
German people that they had become i
imbued with the idea of
world dominion by force of German
rms, and that consequently, while :
he ruling militaristic classes may
lave been primarily responsible for
his attitude Of the people, that con-
lition of mind was a fact that had to
'e reckoned with. Hence it became
pparent that the war must be waged
lot merely against Germany's rul-
rs but against the German people
themselves who were found to be
quare1y back of their rulers in the
ideous attempt to conquer and Kul-
arize the world. 4
When President Wilson and the
ther allied statesmen made the
tatement that the quarrel was with
le German rulers and not the Ger
ian people they undoubtedly be- |

Railway Shopmen
Strike in Canada

The threatened strike Of the
railway shopmen in Canada has
been declared. The officials OF
Division No. 4, Railway Shop
men of America, have sent out q
strike order affecting 10000
men. The relations between the
union officials and the Railway
War Board have been COM
pletely severed II
One of the union officials made
the following statement con-
cerning the impending strike Of
the shopmen: 1--WE are simply
! waiting for Wednesday morn
ing" he said, 'and there is
nothing that can be done to pre-
vent a strike, unless, indeed, the
Railroad Board changes it's
mind and decides to talk wages
and wage schedules tomorrow. "
President Talon of the shop
men also made the statement
that the strike would not include
the shopmen alone but would al
so include the federated trades
and that the shopmen's COM
mittee was acting for these
trades. This will include the
carmen and other lines and will
swell the strikers total by many
thousands. 1s
In Montreal the strike broad
ened when 1000 employees Of the
Dominion Textile Company left
their jobs, with the demand for
higher wages and a shorter
working day. Four hundred
electrical workers also left their
jobs and labor leaders said that
all the building trades would be
affected thereby. The estimate
of idle employees now in Montreal
twenty thousand.
Out Of sixty-five unions in
Vancouver forty-two are on
strike. In Winnipeg the siua-
tion is still tense; the strike of
the metal workers was followed
by a general sympathetic
strike and the city officials say
that the issue is between the
and the idea of the
zone big union" At the pres
ent there seems to be a deadlock |
