western islHrdr The Britons began to
grow wheat, ana the SaXons continued
the work. StiI. through the Middle
aces the breed Of the poorer classes

His Busy DAYS.

Almost everyone has read more or
less of the Fighting McCoys" of
Kentucky. Private Pete Mccoy, one
of the clan, Joined the army and went
to France to assist in the boche clean
ing-up process. His busiest day ap-
pears to have been on September 20
of last year in the vicinity of Belli-
court, where, at that time, was a part
of the Hindenburg line until the
Yanks, Tommies and Anzacs tore it
to pieces. Here is the war depart
ment's citation which tells of Pete's
exploits on that memorial day:
"Private Pete Mccoy, Company 2,
12Oth 1nfantry.-For extraordinary
heroism in action near Bellicourt,
France, September 20, 1918. Unex-
pectedly encountering seven of the
enemy, Private Mccoy, single handed,
killed all of them with a bayonet and
hand grenade; AS result of this feat
he captured four hostile machine gun
emplacements and took seventeen
prisoners out Of dugout nearby.
"Upon advancing further he found
wounded officer, whom he sent to
the rear in charge of another soldier,
and continued on the the objective.

father, Thomas, KY"

Warburg Scored.

Max Warburg, who is among the
delegates to the Versailles conference
from Germany is being denounced in
no uncertain terms by the Paris news
papers and there is good reason. Here
it is:
Max Warburg is the head Of the
bank of Max Warburg & Co., in Ham
burg. He is the principal shareholder
in the Hamburg-Ame and the,
German Lloyd Steamship companies,
He has two brothers, Paul and Felix.
One is married to the sister-in-law
and the other to the daughter of Jacob
II. Schiff (born in Frankfort, Ger
many. They are Mr.. Schiff's part
ners in the banking firm Of Kuhn,
Loeb & Co. of New York.
Warburg should be ousted as
representative and ordered back to-
Germany.

Burleson Backs Down.

Burleson has backed down. Under
severe storm of criticism from the
country at large and apparently a
prick from goad in the hands of
President Wilson, the postmaster
general has surrendered. He promises
the return of the telegraph, telephone
and cable systems to their rightful
owners as soon as the restoration can
be accomplished.
Telephone and telegraph lines will
be restored to their owners by legis-
lative action at the forthcoming ses-
sion Of the sixty sixth congress, which
is necessary, says Burleson, to safe
guard the interests of the companies,
while the cable lines will be turned
back not later than May 10.

BOUND TO co OVER
Mile Laos County, a Little Behind at
This Time, Will Jump Over
Top in Victory Loan.
The Best Bond Investment Ever Pre-.
scented to the American Peo-
pie is Now Available.

Yesterday afternoon County Chair
man E. L. Mcmillan informed us that
up to that time, according to reports
received by him, Victory loan sub
scriptions in Mile Laos county were
approximately $4,000 less than the
allotment. Considering that the quo
tas were light in this loan campaign it
is difficult to find an excuse for the
fall-down. The county oversubscribed
upon every other occasion, and why
not now? Perhaps it is mere apathy
and, again, it may be the people, now
that the war is over, think that the
drive is unnecessary. But, if they will
seriously think the matter over, they
can scarcely come to any other con-
clusion than that the period of recon-
struction necessitates the use of a
large sum of money. And all the gov
eminent asks is that the people lend
it this money at Az per cent interest
on bonds to mature in four years or
less. Then unearth that spare money
you have in your cellars and other
places and assist the government in
it's plan of reconstruction. Do it now.
Don't wait until tomorrow. Everyone
knows that government bonds are gilt
edged.
The various town and village chair
men and solicitors are doing good
work and there is every indication
that Mile Laos county will jump over
the top as it did in all previous cam
paigns of this nature. It is up to
every person to stand back of these
workers to the limit. Of course road
conditions have retarded work to a
considerable extent, but an effort is
being put forth to Finish the job" by
Saturday. However, if this is inpos-
sible, the canvass will be continued un-
til every person is solicited.

Czecho-Slov to Divide Estates.

Czecho- Sl0vaks to Divide Estates.
The national assembly of the new
republic of Czecho-Slovakia has or
dered that the estates Of the common
wealth be appropriated.
Under this law the state will take
over 3,25O,00O acres Of cultivated land
and 100000 acres of wooded land,
which, it is estimated, will provide a
livelihood for $1,000 families.
BY the new law all estates of more
than 375 acres of land under cultiva-
ton or possible cultivation and $50
acres Of wooded land will be expro-
priated. In the case of the estates of
the imperial family, estate illegally
acquired, and estates of persons who
during the war were guilty of treason
against the Czecho- Slovak nation, no
compensation will be paid for the land
appropriated.
In accordance with the recommends
tions of the constitutional committee
Of the national convention made public
the president has been given au-
thority to name and dismiss cabinet
ministers, negotiate and ratify inter-
national agreements and treaties,
preside at meetings of the council of
ministers and submit his desires and
recommendations to the national as
sembly in matters of state.
The food supply situation is consid-
erably improved, the reports say, and
the general economic outlook is good.
The. government expects that within
a few months the economic life of the
country will return to normal.

New Insurance Rules for Soldiers.

view insurance Rules Tor Soldiers.
Washington, April 3O.-Government
insurance on lives Of soldiers and
sailors will be continued automaticaI-
ly in effect for one month after the
end of the month in which man is
discharged from the service, even if
the man does not pay his premiums,
Henry D. Lindsey, director of the
war risk insurance bureau, announced
today.
If a man dies within the time the
insurance will be paid, but after that
time the policy is considered lapsed
and will be lost unless application has
been made for reinstatement. A.
lapsed policy will be reinstated if ap-
plication for this is made within six
months.
These terms are considered suffi-
GENTLY liberal to eliminate chance of
accidental neglect of policy by
discharged soldier. Attempts now are
being made to have discharged men
keep their policies in force, so they
can be converted into regular life in
surance at the mans option within
five years. -,
Another new ruling of the bureau
is that physical disability of a dis
charged soldier will be recognized
after his discharge, even though rec
ords show he was sound on leaving
the service. Many men in their anxe
iety to be discharged claim to be-
physically sound, though they may be-
partially disabled, and subsequently :.
develop ailments which entitle them
to free treatment in government hog
pitfalls. -..
Many discharged soldiers have writ
ten the bureau to ask writ
ten statement of their final accounts.
It was explained today it is physical
ly impossible to furnish these state

hear from these two classes of per-
sons: r.r-. ......

ors who are partially disabled, who
need free treatment in government
hospitals or sanitariums, or who are

five pupils who ranked highest in this

next June. They are Louise Payette,
district 10; Mary and Rose Osborne,
district 4, east school; Ella Milbrandt,
district 3, east school; and Lillian

duets, readings, dialogues and pam

participating in the contest and every
number elected applause from the
large audience: Every district was
we'll represented and standing room at
a premium.

at Milaca next June, when representa-
tives from all sections will compete for
the championship. A written and oral
test will be given and the two success
full contestants will represent Mile

to be held at the state fair next Sep
TENDER.
Next Saturday there will be con-
test at Milaca, when five representa-
tives will be selected from the schools
in the central section of the county

be one of more than usual interest
owing to the fact that all three Sec

anxious for the championship award.
A free trip to the state fair next
September will be given to the two
county winners, and full admission to
the Mile Laos county fair next fall to
all contestants who take part in the
final county contest. A revival of
these spelling contests is commenda-

of education in the schools.

Wage Increase Announced.

Substantial increases in wages for
all telephone company employees, in
the United States, announced by the
wire operating board in Washington,
will mean, it is believed, clearing up
of labor troubles, which had become
threatening.
The possibility of a strike of tele-
phone electrical workers, under the
strike vote recently taken, now is con-
sidered remote. The result of this
vote was to have been announced May
IL, and the forecast was that it would
show 80 per cent Of the workers favor
ing strike.
