CHARLES D. BARGER,
Private, First Glass, Company L, 354th
Infantry

Private Barger was awarded the
Distinguished Service Cross for con-
spicuous gallantry in action near the
Bots de Bantheville, France, October
81, 1918. Learning that two daylight
patrols had been caught out in No
Mans Land and were unable to return,
Private Barger and another stretcher
bearer, upon their own initiative,
made two trips 500 yards beyond our
lines, under constant machine gun fire,
and rescued two officers. His uncle,
Henry S. McFeron, lives in Stott City,

of the formidable fleet of De Grasse
the siege of Yorktown would never
have even been thought of. At the
siege the French supplied a large part
and the best-equipped of the allied
troops engaged, and, as Bancroft says,
''thirty-seven ships of the line and
the Americans not one."

 1 helped her ashore and held her in my arms and, you know, the lips have way of speaking then in the old, con- vinclng, final argument of love. They left no doubt in our hearts, my son.
 "When do you wish to marry me% sine whispered.
 "As soon as possible, but my pay is only sixty dollars month now"
 I've shall make 1t do," she an- swered. My mother and father and your aunt and unCla and the Packets and the minister anl a number of our friends are coming ia ;t 1leet Oi boats."
 "We are prepared either for a picnic or a wedding" was the whisper of Kate.
 Let's make 1t both," I proposed to Sally.
 Surely there couldn't be a better place than here under the big pine It's so smooth and soft and shady" said she.
 "Nor could there be better day or better company" I urged, for l was not sure that she would agree.
 The boats came along. Sally and I waved a welcome from the bank and she merrIly proclaimed:
 Its to be a wedding"
 Then a cheer from the boats, in which I joined.
 l shall never forget how, when the company had landed and the greetings were over, Uncle Peabody approached your mother and said:
 "Suy, Sally, I'm goin' to plant kiss on both O them red cheeks O yours, an do 1t deliberate. tOO."
 He did 1t and so did Aunt Deel and old Kate, and I think that. next to your mother and me, they were the happiest people at the wedding.
 There Is a lonely grave up in the hIlls-that of the stranger who died long ago on Rattleroud. One day l found old Kate sitting beside 1t and on a stone lately erected there was the name, Enoch Rone.
 Tt is very sorrOwful," she whis- pered. "He was trying to find me when he died"
 We walked on in silence while I re- called the circumstances. How strange that those tales Of blood and lawless daring which Kate had given to Amos Grlmshaw had led to the staying of her own son! Yet, so it happened, and the old wives will tell you the story up there in the hills.
 The play ends just as the night is falling with Kate and me entering the little home, so familiar now, where she ives and is ever welcome with Aunt Oeel and Uncle Peabody. The latter meets us at the door and is saying in ,heerful voice:
 "Come In to supper. you rOvers. How solemn ye look! Say. if you ex- )ect Sally and me to do all the laughin' lere you're mistaken. There's lot of t to be done right now, an it's time iou Tined in.

ferings they endure, and so on, ad
infinitum. Special appeals are made
to protect the "fatherland, the home
and the loved ones from Bolshevism,
which is the death Of freedom, order
and happiness"
The propagandist does not overlook
the oft repeated story that, in various
sections of Bolshevist Russia, women
are nstionalized.
The anti-Bolshevist fight is being
conducted by an organization styling
itself the Union for Fighting Bolshev-
ism. 1t now has a considerable mem
bership which is understood to include
a number of prominent and wealthy
Germans.
That there is some fertile soil for
Bolshevism in Germany is certain;
but, the German people do not want
SO radical an experiment in govern.
ment or economics, and would be
quite content with almost any regime
which afforded them an opportunity
to get away from unemployment, dis
order and discomfort. The German is
too disciplined by long years in the
kaiser school to swing entirely to ex-
tremes, especially if he gets more
freedom and chance to live without
such an experiment.

PERSONALITY AND POISE

There is subtle mark of distinc-
tion about the college-educated man
or woman. One cannot lay ones fin
gers upon this or that characteristic
and call it the result. The college
man has poise. He is in position to
demand rather than to ask or beg of
the world. There is calm assurance
in his manner that Immediately Gre
ates confidence This is the result of
a trained mind and developed per-
sonality.
He can talk intelligently upon al
most any subject, using a flexible, ex-
pressive vocabulary Not only this,
but he will have something to say
when he speaks.
There is place in the world for
him-he knows it and the world
knows it. He is bound to be sue
cess because his tandard of living is
usually so high that he will exert
his uttermost effort before he will
permit himself to fail.
He is no ones tool. He is a man
of ideas. Ideas are fortunes!
Yes, there have been men without
college educations who have been sue
cessful. One cannot forget Lincoln
and Carnegie. Many of our fathers
are so-called self-made men. But ask
them what they miss most in life and
most of them will tell you-a college
education.

For twelve years George had been the
chef, and there wasn't a single patron
of the place who didn't come partly
for the pleasure of seeing that large
smile that greeted you under the
white cap.
When the United States sent OUT
the call, George was above draft age
but he closed up and went to camp.
Coming down to drill one morning
he ran into beam that had been left
sticking out over the door and was
stunned for moment. Soon he was
out again and drilling like any rookie.
Next morning, however, he walked up
blind.
He applied to the Federal Board
for Vocational Education and when he
heard the plans the Government
made for re-educating men who had
been disabled in service he was eager
and enthusiastic to begin the training.
The Board found out about his past
education, and they chose the follow
ing subjects for him: Typewriting by
the touch system, the use of the tele-
phone and the dictaphone, and a
course in salesmanship to finish up
with. All this study would turn him
out fitted to be telephone advertising
salesman.
George jumped at the chance. He
took the course, and is going fine

IRISH TO FOLLOW RUSSIANS
Soviet Councils Have Been Estab-
lished in Town and Country.

ished in Town and Country.
By United Press.
LONDON, July (by mail).-Th
plan for setting up soviets in ireland
by q section of Sim Feiners working
in harmony with advanced labor e'e-
ments has now been discovered by
the Irish Unionists Alliance. y depu-
tation from the Alliance was received
by Sir Edward Carson and other I'm
ionist members of Parliament ard a
statement of its views was issue, in
Guiding the following:
"The extent to which the revol rt;on
sry movement has been organized was
little realized. The official literatur.
revealed alarming fcts. Already So
Wet councils had been established in
town and country and the Irish Co
operative Commonwealth, modelled OF,
the Russian lines, already controlled
over 1000 cooperative societies in
Ireland"
The cooperative societies referred
to are those which have been organ
ized under the leadership of Sir Hor-
ace Plunkett during 80 years of siren
uous work devoted to the welfare of
agricultural Ireland, described in a
recent article by the Reciprocal News
Service. 1t is scarcely necessary to
state that Sir Horace Plunkett has
taken no part in any soviet movement.
Nor has there been any change in the
control of policy of the Irish Agricul-
tural Organization Society, which is
the central body of the cooperative
movement.
The Unionist politicians, as indeed
politicians of all parties, have never
done a stroke to help the cooperative =
movement but have frequently put OBJ
stacles in the way. The cooperative
movement includes farmers of all po-
litical and religious colors and has
never taken any part at all in Irish
politics.
'Unionists, Home Rulers, Sinn Fein-
ers, Protestants and Catholics are
represented on the controlling COM
mittee of the central body and their
policy is and always has been
strictly limited to furthering the agri-
cultural interests of Ireland as a
whole
What is true, however, is that in

Art Design as a Vocation

One important industrial change
caused by the war is the cutting off
of the United States from the art de-
signers of Europe. Before the war we
depended upon England, France and
Germany for the designs for our fur
niture, rugs and carpets, wall paper,
clothing, jewelry, pottery and china
ware.
Todayewe are confronted with the
problem of producing craftsmen who
can design these things for us here at
home. Germany, which has suffered
most from the war, is too busy try
ing to produce the necessities of life
to pay much attention to designing;
and England and France, who both
sustained heavier losses in the war
than we did, need all their workmen
to replenish the depleted supplies of
their own countries.
The United States government has
taken step toward solving the prob
lem of the lack of designers. 1t re-
Gently appropriated a sum of money
which is to be used to establish draw
ing schools and introduce courses
such as drawing, designing and. wood
and metal work into the high schools
of the country. By educating young
people along these lines, it is hoped
that some of them will choose design
ing as their life's work.
Many of the colleges and univer-
stiles already offer training in draw
ing and the manual arts, so that high
school graduates may continue their
work along these lines. We have
here at the University good depart
ments in manual arts and theory and
practice of art. Especial attention is
given to designing in both these de-
partments.
Just as the United States overcame
the difficulty of producing her own
dyestuffs and making her own toys, so
will she overcome the lack of de-
signers. by educating the youth of our
country to produce those things which
beautify our homes and public build
ings.

BERLIN, July (by maiD.-Bol-
shevism, or as it is called in Ger,
man, der Bolchewismus," is being
fought with famous German wea-
pon-propaganda.
Lurid posters decorate Berlin; just
as lurid pamphlets and handbills are
being sent broadcast by the propa-
gandists who seek to steer clear OF

Dor, Russia. Some of the anti-Bol-
shevist posters have a tendency to
keep one awake nights. they could

children.
The favorite theme in the propa-
gandist poster is an admixture OF
skulls, clutching skelton hands, fire
and ogres. One poster is of an ugly
skeleton, bearing in its mouth a
bloody dagger, while in the back
ground is scaffold. Its sole message
to the public reads, "The Danger of
Bolshevism." Another calls Bolshe-
vism a "sea of blood and an army of
graves" while it portrays a crying
woman before an expanse of graves,
each marked with humble wooden
cross.
Much emphasis is laid on an eX-
position of the results of Bolshevism-
war, unemployment, and hunger
and the handbook gives a series of
figures to show what Bolsheviki in

Write to me-, you say, land send

and the message is loaded on a big
old numbering, putting train and of
it goes.
Write to me and fly it on the next
plane, is what people in some parts
of the country can now say. We who
live in the Middle West have not had
the thrill of receiving our mail this
way But before long our letters,
whether the thought expressed be
lofty or not, will soar high above
earth to their destination.
Wonders of wonders, we gasp, and
straightway set our minds to thinking
of something even more wonderful.
The next may be, Think to me and
convey it on the next thought wave. "
Then one will close ones eyes and
concentrate real hard and out the
thoughts will ily across space over
mountains and rivers to the mind
with which we wish to communicate.

chance to read our letters. And there
