MANY KINDS, AND ALL GOOD
That Would Seem to Be the Verdict
Of Humanity on the Great
Question Of Pies.

They were talking about pies and
discussing which was the best. and.
what we gathered from the cheerful
controversy, all were the best.
The person who stood up for the
Sood old apple pie was just as eloquent
in his references to the peach or pump
kin pie. In fact. each person would
hurry through the praise Of one kind
Of pie In order to champion another.
which convinced us that Of all the
varieties Of food in this world the pie
is the bleSsedest.
Sometimes you will find a man who
doesn't eat pie. but watch him. Pie is
a remedy for many distempers. We
one time cured a ferocious sick head
ache with a quarter of mince pie, and
that, too, on the advice of a physician.
One Of the party never heard of
mulberry pie, and what a barren life
she must have led. We are through
with the cherry pie era and with what
Joy it has filled the world We come
to the berry era, and first Of all there
is the huckleberry pie. which berry
has rescued from sunshine and soil all
the grace Of the earth If man does
not like a huckleberry pie, it is be-
cause the pie or himself has not been
well made. The black raspberry pie
stands away up on the snowy peaks of
perfection and for picnic purposes it is
unparalleled. When we eat raspberry
rie in the woods we feel that the
Dryads are feeding us from their lily
white hands
There are other glorious pies, of
course, but we must have room to say
that the glory Of a pie is in the grace
and charm Of the cook. The pastry
depends upon her temper, and the pas
try is three-fOurths of a pie. If we
were going to get married again, we
would arrange a pastry-making con
test, and the damsel that made the
best pastry we would marry-if we

United States Sex Statistics.

The census of 1910 showed 2,691,978
more males than females in the United
States. In all but Massachusetts,
Rhode Island. Maryland, North Caro-
lima, South Carolina and the District
Of Columbia, the males are in excess.
In all the world females are little in
excess. The reverse in America is
evidently due to the excess in male i'm
migration.

One of the most striking contriDu-

was the enormous quantity of smoke

says the Scientific American. From
April l, 1917, to November IL, 1918, we
produced 632 million pounds Of smoke

equal to the combined output of France

|CEN. PERSH|NG PRAISES
| SOLDIERS OF THE SOUTH

SAVANNAH Ca. December g.
| Gen. John J. Pershing. addressing the
Southesn Commercial Congsess here
yesterday. said:
! Mr.. Chairman. your excellencies. and
gentlemen of the Southern Commercial
/ Congress:
1T gives me very much pleasure to
| have the honor o. meeting the governors
and other distinguished representatives
OF the south assembled here under the
auspices of the Southern Commercial
Congress. 1t is "A privilege to know the
men to whose initiative and creative
genius this organization owes its sue
cess. With the ultimate purpose OF
building "a greater nation through q
greater south YOUR achievements have
been large and they will be far larger
in the future
Through the energy of your peo-
pie and the cooperation of your con-
gress an uneq,IaIed development of
the agricultural. industrial and min
eral resources of the south has taken
place during the past few years. TO
meet this expansion extensive i'm
provementS oil your waterways have
been undertaken. your railroads have
ncrea sed in mileage and in efficiency.
and your ports have been enlarged
nd deepened. Educatio Of the peo
PIE has steadily advanced. living con-
GitionS have grown better and impor-
tant progress has been made toward
the highest ideals OF citizenship.
The cordial welcome which you
have given me and my staff today and
the hospita BILE greeting extended from
Washington to Savannah ! take not
for myself alone. but also for the men
had the honor 10 command. The
credit for our success belongs to them
and with all my heart | join with you
in paying tribute to them.
Praises Soldiers of South.
The southern men in our armies
quickly reached the high standard of
our finest troops. They carried the
banners Of the republic to the battle
fiel Ids of France, and VIGOROUSLY
crossed swords with the best troops
the German empire could furnish. The
glory of our arms goes to that deter
mined stand at Chateau Thierrv. that
stopped the enemv's advance: to the
counter attack or the Marine salient
that turned the tide of war: to their
brilliant success at st. Mihiei: to the
assault at the Canal du Nord, where
southern men lost their lives. and TO
he decisive drive from Nerdun to
Sedan that ended the war, where as
worthy sons. our men maintained
the best traditions of martial peo-
pie.
Continuing. Gen. Pershing said our
young men won victories both at
nome anu ABROAD. NJ DalC nne
tribute to the women of the south
The women of Your states bravely
bore their share of the burden" he
declared.
Faith in Americans had been re-
newed and confirmed by the service
of the men and women at home and
abroad, he said. and one of the great
lessons taught by the war was the
value of cooperative endeavor. 1t is
this devotion TO the nations welfare
that will enable us to meet the. un-
rest of the world today. Il am opti-
mistic about the future of America" 3"
the general stated.
In conclusion he expressed the hope
that the last war had been fought. but
said ii would be folly for the nation
to revert TO a condition of unpre-
paredneSs.
