sc, d MUCH H. has been zen. said al Of the
lief to hear returning hero
in khaki speak of some of the
good things that he had seen in France"
writes c. Courtenay Savage in "The
Forum" And he continues:
The best Of all, to my mind he re-
marked, By way Of climax, was the shows
that the American vaudeville people gave
us. Say he waxed suddenly enthusiastic.
we were out in billet about twenty miles
from Paris, and had seen some snappy
fighting. Most of the fellows were mighty
glad to get little rest, for it had been
rather unnerving to see men you'd chummed
with shot up and even killed. We'd been
in camp just long enough to get some clean
clothes and make ourselves comfortable
when the word went round that the Over
There Theatre people were going to give
US a show. didn't know what that meant.
guess few of the fellows did, but took a
Man alive, you should have heard that
mob go wild when real live American
girl most of US recognized got I'D on that
little platform out in the field and started
to sing US songs we'd heard her sing before.
The orchestra was old organ, and she
wore her service clothes instead of good
looking dress, but oh, those songs! I'll bet
we gave that little lady the best hand she
ever got. And she earned it, for you've got
to get more than three thousand miles awav
from your favorite vaudeville theatre be-
fore you really appreciate what good song
and dance act means to fellow"
Now our boys have widened their arena.
They have moved onto German SOIL and
new note has entered into their allot-
mcnt Of diversion. The Over There
Theatre people have formidable rival.
1t is the German movie!
Chance has just waited our way a
programme from the Apollo Theatre in
Coblenz. German movie proprietors are
very considerate, it seems, Of their Amer
lean guests, and go out Of their way 30
far az to print special programme in
English. Another hero in khaki vouch-
safes the assurance that the programme
invariably affords rs much amusement
az the film. The copy at hand, the text
OF whose pages IL here reproduced faith
fully, concerns picture drama called
"One Hour Of Happiness" In which
Fraulein Iyen Andersen, we'll known
screen artist, IL featured. Our dough-
boys have dubbed Fraulein Andersen the
German Mary Pickford.

The Cob's Part

rENHE American sailors in European VIZ
Il tcrs and the sailors of the other navics
of the Allies are getting lot of satisfac-
ton out of the surrender of the German
navy. However, there is the ranking fact
that the surrender was peaceable one, not
directly compelled by their force of arns9.
In the days TO come, when we are talking
it over, it is probable that lot of dialogues
something like this are going TO take place:
Ex-Soldier -Piffle, you fellows didn't win
the war. We licked the German army, and
that forced the German navy to surrender.
Sailor-Well, you couldn't have licked
the German army if we hadn't starved it out
Whereupon the discussion will be on the
verge of that hopeless argument Who won
tho war?
We should like to remark again that no
individual nation, person, act or organiza
ton won the war; that the cooperation of
them all did IL
And we should like to say of the sailors
that, even though they were denied the "bie
battle" their service was active" enough
to have satisfied the most of us. If we had
to choose, for instance, between the first
line trenches and the little destroyers that
escorted 100000 soldiers into port with q
loss of 800 we would say, Give us the
trenches"
The COB who patrolled the sea in chaser
that "ddn't get torpedoed because Il didn't
hat the water often enough" is, at stomach,
better man than we are.-Stays and

WHERE OUR. MONEY WENT

pliifons to other countries. and this
Will ultimately be paid back to u.s.
ana until the debts are paid we shall
get interest on our money. Every
one of these dollars was 4 fighting
dollar, and helped terminate the war.
During our first six months We lent
Russia $1S7.000,08 and that held the
eastern front for a good six months.
What it would have cost US had the
thing to think about! We lent Italy
more than a billion dollars. and our
money gave the Italian people cour-
age and put them back into the fight
ing line after the great German Of
fensive in the fall of 1917. We loaned
money to Great Britain, France, Bel
gium. Rumania. Serbia, and 1t stiff
ened the allies during many a dark
hour.
The Army finds that it has hun
dreds of millions of dollars worth
of tangible property left over for
peace-time uses. There were sixteen
sixteen National Guard camps, huge
warehouses and port terminals in
this country. enlarged arsenals and
factories-al1 useful in time of peace.
The money value of this equipment
was more than sS00.0e0.000. Some of
it will be kept for Army use-the

MANY TIMES PHOTOGRAPHED.
AL Kinds of Records Broken by
q. S. Peace Party Abroad.

The President and the peace party
which went abroad with him are
breaking all kinds of records in the
matter of being photographed. ac-
cording to a letter received by Sena-
tor Poindexter of Washington. This
letter was from one of the enlisted
men in the Photographic section. who,
with some 20 others, is being held
under orders in Paris to take photo-:
graphs of the presidential party and
other. subjects when required. In his
letter he says:
Maj. Griffin was the head photog-
rapher on the George Washington on
her first trip. Under his supervision
800 negatives were made of the presi-
Dental party on the way over. When
he landed in France sixteen copies of
each negative were made. This
means 1890 pictures.
AN enlisted man OF the section had
to go with the party to England and
italy. On these trips they brought
back $50 negatives, from which were
made LOO prints. 900 enlargements
and 700 postcards"

where the War Money Went" is
the title of a pamphlet just issued
by the War Loan Organization of the
Treasury Department. What the bill
lions poured out by the American
people for war purposes bought.
what they saved in lives and time,
and the salvage in property and
lives are described.
Nov the spending is over and we
find that much of it was done. not
for destruction. but for investment" I"
says the pamphlet. The billions
were not all shot away. but have left
useful property. and. what is more
in lives saved.
when the world finally totals up
its whole war cost, the vast aggre-
gate may be $50 billions Of dollars
Our share, figured net, may be 20
billions-we spent one dollar where

Uncle Sans outgo.
From our entry in the war to the
end of 1919, Uncle Sans outgo was
more than $2s.000. 100000 But of
this more than IS. .000, 900 900 was lent
to other natiohs-that was some of
the best fighting finance.
BY spending and lending s26.000.-
100000 in nineteen months we saved
six months further warfare. and per-
maps a year We also saved at least
100000 american soldiers lives and
four times as many wounded"
The colossal scale upon which the
United States expended money and
achieved results in the matter of con-

An Old Bamberg Boy.

J. Skottowe Wannamaker, whoWas
recently elected president of the
American Cotton association at New
Orleans, is a former resident OF BAN
berg. Mr.. Wannamaker's parents
moved from Bamberg while he was
yet quite a small boy, after living
here several years.
Mr.. Wannamaker is a man of big
business, and is one of the largest
planters in the South. He operates
more than 800 plows on his various
farms, and he is an intensely earnest
farmer. In fact, he is very earnest
about everything he is interested in.
He is president of the National bank
at St. Matthews, and he owns one
half of the Banks & Wimberly COM
pany, large mercantile establish
ment at St. Matthews. This concern
is capitalized at s15O,000, and does
a million dollars worth of business a
year.
Mr.. Wannamaker's father, who
was a teacher, is remembered by
many of Bamberg's older citizens.
Mr.. H. J. Bellinger, of this city, is
Mr.. Skottoxe Wannamaker's uncle.
Mr.. Wannamaker is virtually the
father of the cotton reduction move

what he breaches, and has reduced
