AMERICANHBOyS WORK
ON ROADS IN SIBERIA
Tales Told BY Witnesses Who Testify
of Brutalities to House Foreign
Affairs Committee.

Washington, September 2.-As the
result of a resolution introduced by
Representative William E. Mason, of
Illinois, parents have been given an
opportunity to protest to the House
Committee on Foreign Affairs against
the retention of their boys in the
army to fight for vague and indefinite
causes in Siberia.
Eight thousand of these youths are
being kept by Secretary Baker in the
northern Asiatic wastes in an effort to
subvert a government against which
the United States has not actually de-
clared war and to fight people which
was until recently our ally. Nearly
half of these are from the Sucker
State. They are not only made to fight,
but are also used as common laborers.
Chairman Porter declares that the
drafted men are being held for duty
across the Pacific absolutely without
justification In law" at Is time" he
added, "for Congress to seriously chal-
lenge this extraordinary use of the
army. If our soldiers can be sent to
Siberia without authorization of law,
they can be sent anywhere. These
men olunteered or were drafted for
the war against Germany. Nearly a
year has elapsed since the armistice
was signed, and now they are being
used absolutely against their will to
combat people we have no cause
against. They have suffered great
hardships and they should be brought
home without delay. An explanation
Is due the American people,"
"The President received us nicely,
but did not give us any definite prom
Ise as to when our boys would be per-
mitted to come home." said, Fred Nc
Aver, head OF Chicago delegation
which called upon him In protest. "He

A balanced ration for poultry is one
that contains the proper amount of
protein, carbohydrates, and mineral
matter.
In balancing a ration for poultry,
the protein furnished from vegetable
sources does not give as good results
as that furnished from meats-known
as animal protein. A ration that gives
splendid results is composed as fol-
lows:
Scratch Feed
Cracked corn ............200 pounds
Heavy White oats........10O pounds
wheat pounds
One can add to the above, 80 pounds
each of any other small grains that he
may have available, such as zane seed,
buckwheat, kafir corn, or field peas.
This will contain the most Of the
carbohydrates and fats, and should be
fed to the fowls in a litter of straw
which will necessitate their taking ex-
ercise. About one-third Of the grain
should be fed in the morning and two
thirds late in the afternoon.
Protein will be secured largely from
a dry mash which should consist of
the following:
Dry Mash
Ground oats 100 pounds
Wheat bran or middlings. 100 pounds
Ground corn .............2OO pounds
Meat scraps 100 pounds
This should be thoroly mixed, and
to each 100 pounds Of the mixture add
not more than 1 pound of table salt,
4 or 5 pounds each Of grit and oyster
shell, and 2 pounds of graduated or
beat-up charcoal.
This mixture should be kept in an
open hopper before the fowls. The
fowls should be fed about as much Of
the scratch grain as they consume Of
the dry mash.
In addition it is necessary to supply
clean, fresh drinking water in album
dant quantities. This water should
not be allowed to freeze, and should
be so arranged that it cannot be pol
luted.
If one does not have growing oats,
wheat, barley, kale, rape, or crimson
clover where the hens a get a supply
of it, he may substitute, with fairly
good results, a bucketful of clover hay.
Pour boiling water over this and allow
Grainger County news. (Rutledge, Tenn.) 1917-current, 1919-05-22

it to steam for a couple of hours.
After that time it should be mixed
with enough of the dry mash mixture
to make a crumbly, but not sloppy,
mash for the fowls. Feed them what
they will eat up clean in 10 or Is
minutes.
One will not get many eggs during
the fall and winter months, no matter
how carefully he may feed, unless he
matches his pullets in the early spring.
This gives the chickens an opportunity
to get a good start before hot weather
sets in, and again, when lice become
bad in the summer the chickens are
so we'll grown that they are able to
withstand the lice. Again, by early

Star Of The Triumph OF Venus"
now at Muse.

In the hundreds of letters received
during the last several months, the
one question l am most frequently
! asked is How does a star main
tain an air of grace on the screen?
The answer is simple,
| believe in outdoor sports, eat
plain food, read the current maya.
zines and newspapers, so to the
| theaterS to see the very best of mo-
ton pictures, and dance at every
opportunity | get.
By grace of stage" | mean the
proper placing OF every part of the
body and the blending Of facial ex-
preston with the movement of the
eyes, Hard work and constant prac-
tice are essential for this accom-
plishment
In sitting before camera three
things are required for grace. In
the first place one must stand or sit
with the weight of the body perfect
ly disposed to avoid a feeling of
strain. If we do this we have the
first aid to an easy and graceful po-
sltlon.
In the second place we must be
careful that we do not sit up so
straight as to spoil the effects OF a
natural and easy position.
Knowing what to do with the feet
plays an important part in posing for
pictures. 1t is very bad form to
cross the legs at the knee, as it sug-
2ests a very uncomfortable position.
The better way is to cross the feet
at the ankle. One thing to be for
gotten is the tapping of the toe or
continual bringing together of the
shoes. This indicates nervousness
or restraint and is fatal to any idea
of gracefulness.
In posing, do not stand directly
before the telltale camera. Turn a
little to the right or left and keep
the face in a similar direction. The
feet should not be kept together,
one foot should advance in the gen
eral position of the body. while the
other foot should be pointed at a
