Return to u. s. In
Order of Their
Arrival

WASHINGTON. Feb. 26.-Gen.

today that divisions now in the
American expeditionary forces ex-
cepting those with regular army des-
ignations," would be returned to the
United States in the order OF the ar
rival of their respective divisional
headquarters in France This was
interpreted as meaning that all d.
visions except the first, second, third.
fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh would
be returned as shipping was avail
able.
Combat troops not assigned to di-
visions Will be returned in the order
in which their services can be spared
and a similar policy has been adopt
ed regarding service of supply troops
except that as far as possible these
also will be returned in the order of
their arrival in France.
Gen. Pershing said he estimated
the movement of troops, based on
tonnage known TO be available, and
on the German shipping soon TO be-
come available, as follows:
March. $4,000; April, 221, 900:
May. 24S,OOO; June, 100000
The general said that based on
these estimates divisions would be
returned in the following order:
March-27th. 30th, S5th, 37th and
91st; April-26th, S@rd S2nd, 35th
and 42nd; May-32nd. 2Sth, 33rd,

A Mutual Relief.

When Reddy Fox dashed between the
legs of Farmer Browns Boy and out of
the open door of the henhouse it WAS
with his heart in his mouth. At least it
seemed that way. Would he find the
henyard gate open? Suppose Farmer
Browns Boy had closed it after he en-
tered. Reddy would then be a prisoner
just as he had been all night, and ali
hope would end
Just imagine with what terrible an1-
iety and eagerness Reddy looked toward
that gate as he dashed out of the open
doort Just imagine the relief that was
his when he saw that the gate was
openi In that very instant the snowy
outside world became more beautiful
and wonderful than ever it had been in
all his life before. He was free. Free.
Free
If ever there was a surprised boy that
boy was Farmer Browns Boy as he
watched Reddy twist around ii corner of
the barn and disappear. 'Reddy Fox
he exclaimed. Now how under the
sun did that rascal get in here" Then
as he realized that Reddy had actually
been inside the henhouse, anxiety for
the hiddies swept over him. Hastily he
turned, fully expecting to see either the
bodies of two or three hens on the floor.
or scattered feathers to show that Red
were no feathers, and so far as he could
see all the hens were standing or walk
ing about.
At once Farmer Browns Boy began
to count them. OF course, he knew how
many there should be. When he got
through counting not one was missing.
Farmer Browns Boy was puzzled. He
counted them again. Then he counted
them Il third time. He began to think
there must be something wrong with his
counting. After the fourth count. how
ever he was forced TO believe that not a
single one was missing.
If Reddy Fox had been relieved when
he discovered that heuyard gate open,
Farmer Browns Boy was equally re-
lieved when he found that not a, single
hiddy had been taken. When two peo-
pie are relieved at the same time it is
called mutual relief But there was this
difference between Reddy Fox and
Farmer Brown 5 Boy. Reddy knew all
about what had happened. and Farmer
Browns Boy couldn't even guess. He
