MARSHAL PETAlN
TO VISIT in U. S.
BY WM. PHILIP sIMMs.

NUHlteu HlebS oldlI correspondent
! Paris, May 90 Marshal Petain
expects to pay visit to America as
soon as circumstances permit.
! There are few leaders of men
more likable than Petain. His
tastes are simplicity itself. He
lives simply and dresses simply.
When saw him at his headquarters
he was wearing horizon-biue uni
form without an inch Of braid of
any description. Only his seven
I stars, on each sleeve, to show his
rank, gave his dress even the
slightest CLINT. But even these stars
were small and Of dulled silver He
wore no service stripes though en-.
titled to the maximum, which is
six On his breast only one bit of
ribbon was pinned-without the de-
coration itself-and this was the
"Medaille Militaire." Ordinarily Off
GERS are not entitled to this; only
pI1vates and non-commissioned Off
GERS are regularly eligible. But Of
ficers who have performed extraor-
binary services for their country are
awarded the medal and, though
owning about all the decorations
there are, Marshil Petain wears but
one that the simplest of the lot
The marshals cuff buttons were
of white metal They could not
have cost more than a few cents
each. His leggings were of the
knitted variety.
In short Marshal Petain is a plain
but neat soldier utterly without
gew-gaws and dazzle He carries his
brililanoy in his head.
Petain received the American cor
respondents at Chanti!ly to talk
about his trip to the American army
bases of supply
His comparisons were interesting.
In the days of Napoleon, he point
ed out, when armies numbered
about 100000 and were generally on
the move, they lived ON the coun-
try, needed little transport and few
bases. Nowadays armies number
millions of men and their move
ments are comparatively limited. So,
after a very few days, we're they
dependent upon the localities where
in they are operating, they would ,
be foodless and supplyless.
Thus stupendous bases of semi-
permanent character are necessary
10 keep modern army fed and
equipped and between these vases
md the front a vast system of
must be kept circulating.
The backbone of the American
sos or Service of Supplies" the
marshal pointed out, was the ship.

ALIEN EXODUS is
MARKED AFTER WAR

Washington, May ia wide
spread exodus of aliens from this
country was reported soday by the
department Of labor Inquiries by
the departments investigation and in
spectiOn service have revealed that
already large numbers OF foreign
born residents are leaving sad that
even more expect to depart when
steamship accommodation and pass
ports can be obtained.
Unemployment and family inter-
ests were said to be important fac.
tors in stimulating the eastward flow
of the human tide which for decades
has set only westward. Ethelbert
Stewart, director Of the investigation
service, said many aliens reported
they had not heard from their fam
lilies since Europe was thrown into
war, and that they were going over
seas to make personal inyestiga-
tion.

TEACHERS AND WAGES.

Tehre is great opening for the educated people of the
United States The schools of the country began their
fall terms short of $4,000 teachers Already IS 900 IN
structors have been employed whose qualifications wer,
below the qualified requirements
The reason OF the shortage is well understood, There
is either poverty parsimony at the bottom of it, The
people haven't the money spend on schools or they do
not believe in spending it We have many maxms on the
value of knowledge and there is great volume of ex-
hortaory literature the subject but it accepted with
that ueserved faith with which we believe in some of our
American political and social principles?
So any boys have risen to fame and fortune on an in
dcerent schooling that ceased at Ia years of age that
there is hard-headed belief that they all can But has
anybody but man with college education been Presi-
dent Of the United States for sixty years?

abroad may ride, and tour the smiling
countryside; for them the well known
sun will shine, the stars will not take
in their sign; the winds will whisper
soft and low, and not like merry blit-
zen blow; the skies, an airy, fairy
blue, will seem to the mas good as
new. But when l make vacation
schemes to sally to the burbling
streams, and spend a day, or maybe
four, far from the bughouse city's
roar, the elements remark, "The toff
Well show hi mnow where he gets
OFF, And then the streaks of light
ming fly; the sable clouds obscure the
sky, with awful pomp and circum-
stance; my name is Ebenezer Pance.

THE STORM

The clouds are black, the thunder
roars, there are big doings out Of
doors. The winds like dippy demons
shrek, the universe has sprung a
leak; the rain is pouring ina flood,
and all the landscape turns to mud.
The storm is not a thing of chance,
my name is Ebenezer Pance, and
every time | plan jaunt, or panic in
some woodland haunt, inviting friends
to go along and make their lives one
grand sweet song, the elements re-
mark, may, nay~ and bring along
a beastly day. The skies are dark,
the winds are bleak; this thing will
last at least one week. Oh, other men

THE GOOD LITTLE BOY

Once there was boy who never
Tore his clothes, or hardly ever,
Never made his sister mad,
Never whipped fer bein' bad,
Never scolded by his Ma,
Never frowned at by his Pa,
Always fit fer folks to see.
Always good as good could be.
This good little boy from Heaven,
So I'm told, was only seven,
Yet he never shed real tears
When his mother scrubbed his ears
An at times when he was dressed
Fer a party, in his best,
He was careful of his shirt

Dear Mother
As you said in your letter that
wasn't writing often enough, | will
try owrite more often. | can't
think of anything to write about any
more, as we have been in the same
place so long.
We have very long days here; only
about four hours of darkness, from
1880 to 2;30.
The Russian money is almost worth
less now, We are getting IS rubles
for a dollar, and a ruble wor worth
So cents before the war.
We are all getting very tired of this
place, Do you hear anything more
about u sbeing withdrawn? Pm fig
uring on wintering here again. Has
Garland enlisted yet? l hope he don't
come over here.
had letter from Dave few days
ago and he said he liked his job fine.
What has become of my little girl,
Thelma? haven't heard from her in
a long time.
Hoping this letter finds one and
all well at home, close.
! am, as ever,
Your son,

Right away he always came

But was quiet as mouse
When they'd comp'ny in the house.

Liked to work around the place;
Never, when he tried to play,
Left his wagon in the way
