- Offer of service in Europe to re-
cruits obtained under volunteer en-
listment will be withdrawn under or
ders prepared by the war department.
The policy of sending regular ofhcers
overseas to relieve those in the Amerl-
can expeditionary forces also will be
abandoned. This action Is said to have
resulted from the improved situation
in Europe growing out OF the imml-
nent signing Of the peace treaty. In
the orders officers foresaw an early
return Of all troops now abroad ex-
cepting comparatively small Amerl-
can contributions to the army Of oc-
cupation. Secretary Baker says he has
not been advised from Paris as to the
size Of the American army which Is TO
be maintained for the time being In
Germany. The fact that the Fourth
and Fifth divisions or regulars were
definitely slated for return in June,
until the crisis Of last week, caused
the cancellation of these plans, Is cited
as evidence that the American forces
will not be larger than three divisions,
or about 10000. It is estimated that
the First, Second and Third divisions
will require around 10000 replace
ments to take tie place OF men IN
those organizations who are eligible
for discharge. Voluntary enlistments
totaling more than 10000 men already
have been reported, thus forcing the
department to cancel it's offer of Euro
pean service to volunteers. Troops
are now being returned to the United
States at such rate" says an official
announcement, that, at the request OF
General Pershing, no more ofhcers Will
be sent overseas, except the class OF
student officers composed of recent
graduates of the United States mill
tary academy, scheduled to leave
about July H." At the same time no
tice is given Of the withdrawal of per-
mission for wives and children OF offi-
GERS and enlisted men to go abroad.
This is necessitated. the department
says. by the fact that 1t will be i'm
possible to say which Individual SOL
diers will be kept overseas until the
composition of the army Of occupation
is determined.

Boys, say you boys from France you
saw what a splendid thing the French
people did in putting out shade trees
along their roadways. 1t was one OF
the most striking things you saw over
there, was it not? Then why not do
likewise? We can have trees set out
along all our roads. Your fathers and
mothers, and sisters and brothers, and
your sweethearts will join you If you
ask them. And If you do the thing
now, the time will come when these
shade trees will be looked upon as a
most appropriate monument to your
service abroad. You might not think
much of that service now; but the time
will come when you will treasure the
recollection Of it more than you can
possibly realize now. And these shade
trees with which you can line the
roadside will not only be source OF
endless comfort and pleasure to your
selves and others, but they will be an
everlasting reminder Of the civic as
we'll as the military service OF your
people. Let us plant those trees.

If the senator should indicate desire

REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. .

There is more activity in real estate
in York county, town and country, than
there has ever been in all the past.
On the subject as to whether prices
are good or Indifferent, quite lot can
be said but that is hardly necessary.
Money to be sure Is cheaper now than
1t was a few years ago, and that fact
must be taken into consideration In all
comparisons Of prices now and then.
The main point Of interest at present
concerns the fact that there are people
who are able to buy and people who
are willing to sell.
Lively transfers of real estate are al
ways indicative of healthy commercial
and economic conditions.
If real estate were not desirable
property there would be no one to buy
it no matter how willing holders
might be to sell, and the more buying
and selling Of real estate, whether
town property or farm lands, the bet
ter the prospect for general improve
ment.
Thoughtful people generally are able
to figure out that this section is now
entering upon an era Of material pros
perity the like Of which has never been
known before, and about the wisest
and most helpful comment we can
make on the situation is that people
who have not yet awakened to the Sig
nificance Of developments that are TAX
ing place all around them, will do we'll
to wake up.
In every general move forward there
are always some who get left simply
because Of failure to take note OF what
was going on around them.

1t comes from apparently good au-
thority that the German differences of
opinion as to what to do about the
peace treaty were settled by the kali
ser. Rather than sign treaty that
was at once oppressive, humiliatins
and even dishonorable in German eyes,
many leading Germans were about re-
signed to the idea Of leaving the Allies
to work their will. But about this
time there came to Berlin from the
kaiser in his Dutch retreat, the advice
to sign. 1t is said that the kaiser sent
word by trusted messenger who was
SO we'll identified with the royal asso-
citation in the past that the authority
Of his message could not be doubted
for an instant. And when the message
came opposition for the most part
ceased.

Certainly America will have to go
through considerable period OF
training before she can operate ships
in competition with England on a large
scale. It would be absurd to think that
even America could take her inexpe-
rienced landsmen and build up great
ocean carrying trade in competition
with that Of Great Britain, which has
been following the business for gener-
ations. But the man who owns and
operates the boat has the monopoly OF
crossing the river, just as the nation
that owns and operates the freight
ships has a monopoly Of the worlds
carrying trade. Even If America has
more ships than she can now operate
it is not wise for her to give them up.
It is far better to continue the nation
alization Of these ships until such time
as America can handle them to better

There is no question Of the fact that
the Germans are going to sign the
peace treaty, If they sign it at all. with
reservation under that commonly rec
ognized principal of action which holds
that that which is done under compul-
sion is not binding. The idea OF the
Germans is to sign and then bide their
time, should their time ever come
again. But after all nothing else can
be reasonably expected. No nation
ever surrenders until it is obliged to do
so, and when it does surrender 1t Is IN
the hope that there is better day a

that reason they demand that no rail-

Won elisa denied the report that Ger

the situation fear 1t may result In Sc

No, we are not expecting individual
travellers to work the roads; but when
we reach a point where an automobil-
