How a Father Has Learned to
Save Shoe Bills.

my son is very hard on shoes, so
keeping him properly shod has been
quite an expense to me, writes Mr.. ].
Allison Allen, of Amity, Arkansas.
But since | started to buy Neolin-
soled shoes for him have found that
it costs only about third as much to
keep him in shoes. "
This is because Neolin Soles are so
tough and durable that they wear a
very long time. Shoe bills are kept
down because you don't need so many
pairs.
You can get Ne5lin-soled shoes at
almost any good shoe store. They
come in all styles and for all members
of the family. Neolin Soles are also
available everywhere for re-soling.
They are produced by a scientific pro-
cess to be what soles ought to be: COM
Portable, waterproof and long-wearing.
They are made by The Goodyear Tire

MAKING PAY

Sioux City Journal-The peace con-
ference has reached the consideration
of the question of what and how Ger
many shall make retribution for the
damages wrought by that nation in
the war. The problems which the al
lies must solve in this particular are
peculiar. 1t is recognized that the
remnants of the country which launch
ed the wal could be EMERGED in vast
indemnities without being ~unjustly
punished. But at the same time it is
recognized that actual payment of an
indemnity is better than a paper IN.
demnity which could never be paid.
1t is, therefore, not a question of how
much Germany should pay, but of how
much she can be made to pay. The
disorganized conditions which prevail
in the country materially lower its
ability to meet it's indemnities. Its
lack of national honor-the honor
which caused France to meet the in
demnity imposed by Germany in 1870
reduces its moral rating. The lack
of individual industry among its PEG
pie, which is forecast by the desire of
the masses to create disorder and
conduct a mob government rather
than engage in productive toll, is an
other discounting element in the ma

ABOUT RETURNING SOLDIERS

(By Union Pacific r. R. Press Bureau)
The entire 30th division, in which
are many mid-western troops, is an.
nounced as on the early convoy list
and a portion of its field artillery has
already sailed. The Goth was filled
up early in 1918 with several thous-
and men from Camp Funston who had
been in training with the seth divi.
sion there.
How the replacement methods used
in filling up the combat divisions in
France broke down the old system of
organizations representing certain
states or sections is illustrated in the
reports of returning troops this week.
In demobilizing the 9th division, for
instance, many men are announced
as going to Funston, Pike, Dodge and
other camps for discharge to middle
western states. The famous division
which broke the Hindenburg line was
originally a New York organization.
However, at the time 1t established
it's record, former losses had been re-
placed with thousands Of men from
the middle west and other portions OF
the country.
The 40th division, originally com
posed of National Guard troops from
the Pacific coast states contained
thousands from other sections, includ-
ing a substantial portion from Colo
RADIO, Kansas, Missouri and South Da'
kota. This in urn was used as a re-
placement unit at the front and the
mid-western fighters are shown in
the return reports as having served
in half a dozen other organizations.
The same is true of division after

tons ability to pay. Some of these
must be recognized in fixing the
amount of the indemnities.
The greatest element to be consid,
cred is whether German industries
shall be allowed to recover and de,

England and Belgium. This is what
Germany wants. 1t realizes that no

indemnity demands, Germany will be
required to pay $4,000, 00O, 900 which,
if spread I'VE a period of forty years,
would add an equal additional amount
as interest. This interest would be
lost to the beneticiaries, who would
be compelled to issue interest bearing
bonds against the indemnity so as to
make the resources available within a
reasonable time. Interest would
thereby only repay interest.
If Germany escapes with an indem-
nifty principal of $4,000, 900, 900 she
will be lightly punished for her crimes
and outrages. But to the German who
pays, the thing has another face. If
there are 10000, 900 people in Ger

share approximately $1,000. Before the
war the average savings Of a frugal
German family ere less than 500
per annum The saving per individ-
ual, including women and children,
would be far below that. But if each
adult contributes directly or Indirect
ly the amount of his savings, every
man and woman must devote thirteen
years of their lives, except for the
chance to exist, to the payment of war
indemnities. 1t is a frightful burden
to carry, a tremendous price to pay

A SOLDIERS PRAYER

The following poem was copied from
a newspaper in France by Axel Eng
berg of Bruce, and sent to his parents
Now | lay me down to sleep,
Grant the Lord my gun to keep;
And may no other soldier take
Shoes or shirt before | wake.
Lord please guide me in my slumbeT
And keep the cot upon its lumber;
And may no pegs or guide ropes break
To let the tent down before | wake
Keep me safely in your sight,
And grant no fire drills tonight;
And in the morning let me wake
Breathing scents of sirloin steak.
Relieve me from all work and drills,
And when | am sick don't feed me
pills;
And should | break this arm of NINE
Don't dope it up with iodine.
In a snowy feather bed

Far away from all camp scenes
Also the smell of h~alf-baked beans,
Take me back into the land,
Where | can walk without a band:
Where no shrill bugle blows,
And where the women wash my
clothes.
Lord, Thou knowest all my woes,
Feed me in my dinner clothes;
Take me back, | will promise then,
Never to enlist again.

Although relatives of men in the
35th division report letters predict
ing a return during March there is
no information available that indi-
Gates any change in the previously an,
nounced schedule. This fixes the 35th
as sailing about April Goth.
Men in military hospitals who have
left the unit since the armistice state
that life at Commercy consists Of
drilling and fixing up the camps to
fill in time. They describe the men
as homesick and eager to get away.

all right but the setting Of that sail

they'll come back feeling great"
"WiH the American soldiers allow

This is the plea Of the housewife in
the area occupied by the seth divi-
sion in Germany, according to officers
who have lately been detached for
early return with other units. Soap,
they say is in the same class with
Jewels in Germany, and a whole squad
of doughboys can have their buds
washed for nothing if they will fur
nish half a bar of laundry soap and
allow the frau to keep what is left.
They intimate also that the midwest
