Corporal Storms Heights Of
Ourcq River With Rem
nants Of His Platoon

At the direction of the War Depart.
ment General Pershing has forwarded
from France accounts of 100 deeds OF
heroism performed by soldiers Of the
American forces, most typical OF the
spirit Of our army. The story OF Cor
poral Sidney Manning Is one Of con-
spicuous gallantry.
Corporal Manning was In charge OF
an automatic rifle squad when his bat.
TALON assaulted the heights of the
Ourcq River During the advance on
the hill Manning's platoon commander
was killed, and just as the line reached
the crest of the hill the platoon SER
geant fell
Corporal Manning then assumed
command OF the platoon. Though he
himself was severely wounded and was
the only survivor of his squad, this SOL
dier led forward the 35 remaining men
of the platoon against an enemy
strong point, wired, entrenched and
defended by machine guns, which DOM
inated the Ourcq valley. He was re-
peatedly wounded but with seven men
took the position. While his men con-
solidated the line he held off consid-
erable number of the enemy fifty yards
away with his rifle. When the posi-
ton had been consolidated he crawled
back to shelter, having received nine
wounds. W.
Backing up such examples of sacri-
flee as this the government is calling
o. the people to take the Victory Loan
to pay for the expenses of our war
time army.

On the Stock Exchange there was
lessened activity and slight check
in the advancing tendency so pro-
nounced during the last few weeks.
Investment buying was less con-
spicuous and the advances were con-
fined to a few of the inductrials which
were benefiting from special ctrcum-
stances. Railroad shares were AFFECT
ed by the unfavorable relations which
exist between them and the govern
ment, as well as by the fact that
their financial condition was such as
to suspend all improvements and bet
terment. Steel shares declined on
the expectation of lower prices for
steel products despite the BELIEF IN
some quarters that when bedrock was
reached such losses would be Offset
by a liberal influx Of new orders. The
placing of the New York Railways
Company had little effect, though re-
garded as eymptomatic of conditions
in local traction affairs. All purchas-
es for the time being should be made
with close discrimination. Before
long the Victory Loan campaign will
begin in earnest.

The Suffrage Jubilee

The Jubilee Convention of the Nationa
American Woman Suffrage Association to be
held in St. Louis next week will also common.
crate the Jubilee anniversary of woman suffrage
in Wyoming, the first state of the American
commonwealth to grant the right of citizenship
to all citizens irrespective of sex.
The most interesting feature Of the Wyoming
anniversary is the fact that man, William H
Bright, member of the council in the Wyoming
territorial legislature, was sponsor of the stuff
rage bill. Back of him, however, was the unseen
but very potent influence Of his wife.
When statehood was granted Wyoming, the
men sent word to Washington that the equal
suffrage clause must be retained in the state
stitution if Wyoming was to enter the American
union
This, according to the Christian Science Mont
tor, presents another interesting and paradox
cal situation When congress discusses the pro-
posed constitution of state, it sometimes OBJ
jects to provisions and sends the instrument back
to the territory for revision. In the case of WyO-
ming congress on July 10, 1890, admitted Wyo-
ming to the union, and thereby inferentially put
the stamp of federal approval on the equal suff-
rage provision of the Wyoming constitution.
The federal constitution, which is the norm
and standard by which state constitutions are
judged, did not at that time and does not now
permit women to vote.
"The struggle that is to obtain the
submission of the so-called Susan B. Anthony
amendment to the federal constitution is intend
ed,' says the Monitor, ITO conform the consti-
tuition of the United States in this respect, to the
constitution of the state of Wyoming, approved
by congress twenty-nine years ago.
Since Wyoming in its territorial days first
granted women the right to vote, twenty-on
states have given this privilege to women. Equal
suffrage despite its recent defeat in the senate of
the United States is bound to come. Equal suff-
rage has been in vogue SO long in Wyoming, says
the Monitor, that it is difficult for it's people to
realize how other states can deny their women
the right to vote.

When did Citisens
First Struggle
With 1ar Problem

Just one hundred years ago Rich
mond citizens began to struggle with
the taxation problem, which is causing
them SO much worry right now.
Assessment sheets for the year 1916.
one OF the earliest years for which
property was assessed for taxes. show
values that seem laughab1e to modern
taxpayers.
One hundred acres of the best land
was worth only one-fiftieth as much in
the eyes Of the tax assessors, as
billiard table. The tax was 81 on the
former, and $50 on the latter. Watches
were another class Of Injuries, and
pleasure carriages cost as much or
more than 100 acres Of land.
The founders of Richmond paid
taxes according to the following
schedule: For each 100 acres of best
land the tax was 81; for each bond
servant over IL years old, So; for each
horse or mule, 81 cents; for each ferry
across streams from S. to $40 dollars;
for each town lot, SO cents: for pleas.
ure carriages, two-wheeled, 81, four
wheeled, $1.25; each silver watch, %
cents; each gold watch, so cents; for
every billiard table, $50.

ing itself by placing picture of it's native son in
the collection No reference to Indana's part in

How War Effects Crime, Marriage and
Insanity
BY j. N. Hurry, M. d.


The effect of the war upon the mental stabil-
ity of the nation has been tonic rather than de-
pressant This is proved by the fact that the
suicide and insanity rates declined during the
war; Graham, a noted statistician of Belfast,
shows there was decrease of the insane in Ire
land during the war and expressed the view that
cit is not the great tragedies of life that sap the
forces of the brain and wreck the psychic organ
ism. On the contrary, it is the small worries, the
deadly monotony of a narrow and circumscribed
existence" Esterbrook asserts that organic and
even acute infectious diseases and also faulty
nutrition are the most frequent causes of in
sanity The American insane rate did not vary
during the war.
There was remarkable decline in the suicide
rates in Europe and America. Amongst females,
as might be expected the fluctuations were much
less marked than among males
In Indiana the number of suicides in 10
months proceeding the war was 672 and during
the 10 months of the war, ga.
War always depresses the birth rate. This
would, of course, be expected in all invaded re-
gions, but it is also true throughout all nations
engaged. In Belgium and France the birth rate
fell sixty to seventy percent In Bavaria, which
was not invaded the birth rate fell from POT per
1000 in 1913 to 1873 in 1915 or % percent.
The progressive decline in the birth rate in
the United States which has been operative for
half century, became more marked during the
war.
That crime diminishes during war and in
creases Immediately afterward, is a phenomenon
long noticed to exist. It is disquieting however,
that juveline delinquency increases in war time
1t has been suggested this is because children in
war time receive less attention and direction.
England at the instance of pseudo economists,
made fearful blunder in closing most of her
schools when the war began The result was an
increase of 80 per cent in juvenile delinquency.
1t is observed that wherever school and child
hygiene is bettered, that juvenile delinquency de-
creases. This accords with the dictum that
where hygiene is practically applied then crime
diminishes.'
After plague visitations and even after severe
and extensive epidemics, there follows an increase
in immortality, crime and insanity
In England and the United States in the early
days of the war, "war marriages" were numerous
and popular. In England and Wales the highest
marriage rates ever recorded occurred in the first
six months of the war

Cadomene Tablets Will Help You
Over the Rough Period.

Cadomene Tablets are helpful to
weak nerves. Weak, faulty nerves
often come from strong drink. Some
times the system is impoverished by
excuses of one kind or another. such
as poor digestion and faulty nutrition.
Oyerwork, anxiety, and even grief
causes abnormal nervous conditions
The strength of body declines. The
strength of will power wanes. Ner-
vousness and sleeplessness causes
further weakness and loss Of vitality.

hope will prove true. The transen-
dent importance Of these event, so de-
equity desired, can hardly be under
estimated. Only four short months
have elapsed since the armistice was
signed, and no one ever believed that
the terms of peace following such a
huge cataclysm would be adjusted
within so brief a period.
When peace is accomplished, demo-
bilizatiOn will proceed more rapidly
than ever. Armies will be disbanded;
millions OF men will turn from waste
full to productive occupations; idle in
dustries and commerce will resume,
and the civilized world will once more
be free to operate under normal con-
ditions. OF course, grave difficulties
will arise, and innumerable readjust-
ments must incite no little friction.
Considerable losses will have to be
written off; labor is sure to be more
or less ruled by the return of millions
seeking unemployment; industry will
still have to be suitably reorganized;
transportation cannot be reestab-
lished without delays; there will be
many differences of opinion as to
how much of what is new or old in
merce will have to be largely recon
structed upon new lines. But these
and many other problems are sure to
be attacked in an mistaken belief
that despite present risks and dan
gers the civilized world is moving
irresistibly forward to a new and
more stable social and economic or
der than the one which the war so
savagely uprooted.
New Courage Apparent.
One striking result of the war is
the development of marked spirit of
courage in the business world; all
kinds of difficulties being faced with
confidence that would have been
considered sheer recklessness four
years ago. However disturbing the
outlook may seem to be, it is still evil
dent that the worst has been passed
and that the tide has turned, albeit
the goal may not be reached without
some further dangers and losses.
Home affairs are in a state of ex-
traordinary f1ux. Our government
has been thrown into a condition of in
tense perplexity by the neglect of
congress to make necessary appropria-
ions before adjournment. Public
opinion is consequently growing more
and more urgent for an early special
session of congress
Many of the governments neces-
sary functions are now being delayed
for want of funds; the railroads being
very seriously inconvenience by de-
mands which the government imposed
posed upon them and is morally OBJ.
liged to meet. Decentralization of the
army is in reality a comparatively sim
pie operation which our military ma
chine is abundantly able to handle;
but the compulsory withdrawal of
the government from the innumerable |
business enterprises into which it was
drawn by war is a far more COM
plicated and delicate process.
All our industries are enormously |
