WILD Man ROAMS
COLORADO WOODS
Defies Whole Power of United
States to Come and Get
Him.
NEVER HEARD OF WAR
For Forty Years This Shaggy, Filthy
Specimen of Humanity Has Lived
Life of Reeluse Because of
Love Affair.

Denver, Colo.-A real, dyed-in-the-
wool wild man, who hadn't heard OF
the war and has lived on the highest
mountain peak near Pagosa Springs
for 40 years, has been discovered. He
is no back-to-nature freak or summer
resort hermit, but a genuine shaggy,
filthy specimen of humanity whose
first action when discovered by Unit
ed States marshal was to tell that In
dividual to go to warmer climate. He
followed it up by hurting a defy full
in the face of these United States to
come and get him for running horses
on government land without permis-
sion, declaring he was just itching for
a fight. AS the wild man, whose name
is William Hardick and whose age is
given as seventy-five, is being sued
In the federal courts in civil action,
it Is doubtful If he can be arrested.
Knew Nothing of War.
When the marshal gently reminded
him that one Willie Hohenzollern had
once remarked he would stand no
nonsense from the United States, and
pointed out that said Willie is now a
fugitive In Holland, the wild man ad-
mitted that he had never heard of
either Willie or Holland. The marshal
sarcastically inquired If he knew
there had been war on with Ger
many. The wild man responded ne
wasn't sure whether Germany was a
tooth wash or disease, but that any
way he had never heard of the war.
Happy man." murmured the mar
shal enviously, although he carried
out his stern duty of serving the wild

man money. be assigned the task Of
rebuilding the destroyed cities and
towns and villages so far as that can
be done. Germany was able to DO
without the constructive labor Of mill
Hons Of her men while they were en-
gagged in destroying these cities. towns
and villages, and now let her continue
to do without this constructive labor
while her men rebuild that which they
have so wantonly destroyed. Ger
many's men have been satisfied to
work at the destructive trade Of the
soldier for the meager pay of a Ger
man soldier, and now let them be en-
ployed at constructive work in the Sec
tions they have destroyed, for the
same meager pay, and this to be paid
by Germany.
The German people have stolen from
Belgium and France much of the ma
chinery and other valuable and port
able property they found in the invad-
ed districts. Much of the stolen ma
chinery is running today in German
factories, and with it the German peo-
pie are earning a livelihood while the
people of Belgium and northern France
are idle because of lack of oppor-
tunity. German employers are pre-
pared to reap a trade harvest as soon
as they are again allowed to enter the
field of world trade because they have
this machinery. With it they can cap
ture the markets that have been held
,, by the French and Belgian employers,
who have been put out of business by
the depredations Of Germany.
| The immediate return of this stolen
machinery and other property should
be forced, and where its return is not
possible it should be replaced with
equivalent machinery from German
factories, and the machinery and prop
erty destroyed should be replaced in
the same way just so far as that is
possible.
Force Payment for All Damage.
These methods will pay but small
part of the debt Of the Geramn peo-
pie to the world, but they will aid in
some degree in undoing what the Huns
have so ruthlessly done. Along with
these should be money compensation
for the nations that have suffered so
cruelty at the hands Of the German
nation and the German people. A mon
ey compensation the payment Of which
should be extended over a period of
many, many years, that not only the
present, but future generations Of the
German people may learn, from the
effort that is needed to pay, that self
| ish, wanton war Is improbable.
Judging from the German prisoners
with whom I talked in France, I dc
not believe that the Germans are today
a repentant people. They feel that
they are temporarily q defeated peo.

WEAR OR NOT WEAR C0RsET7
French Fashions Are Being Watched
With Eaoerness as to Final Out
como In Spring.

Not only have the fashion shows
staged in this country suggested the
possibility that there may arise a de-
mand for a corset which holds the
figure firmly in place, with slight
emphasis on a marked waistline, but
the French openings, with recurrent
stress on the "smoothly fitted bod
ice," also suggest a departure from
the easy, so-called "corsetless figure"
which has held sway for so long a
time.
1t will be interesting to follow the
season with an eye to its ultimate
effect on corset fashions, possibly in
the spring. Whether it will be the
smaller group, with the easy. comfort
able figure, to which the American
woman has apparently become at

herence to it, or the newer and larger
school, which takes its inspiration

that Of finding themselves robed in
evening frocks fashioned from styles

the delightful fashion plates Of the
splendid and beauty-loving court of
the French Louis, and those of the
gracious days Of the colonial period,
has not privately wished that she
might bedeck herself in some of these
quantity charming costumes Of past
epochs? If she is practical person,
she realizes that such gowns would
seem ridiculous in the daily life Of the
twentieth century, because Of their
generous puffs, hoops and trailing rib
bons; but, happily, there is the eve
ming occasion which makes such elab-
crate modes possibility.
This seasons evening frocks, then,
will be replete with crinolines, panniers,

One dime with two cents back for change brought 5000 German helmets to the Liberty Loan Committee of the Twelfth Federal Reserve District to be used in the Victory drive.
 When c. A. Farnsworth, manager of publicity for this district, heard that Frank R. Wilson, national director of publicity, had bid in 85,000 helmets from the War Department he enclosed ten cents in a letter with a request that he be sent his share of the tro- phiss.
 A wire came back the next day saying that 5000 helmets would be shipped with two pennies for change. MT. Farnsworth wired to keep the change and apply 1t on submarine which the twelfth district would like to have to help advertise the cam paign.
 The helmets will be distributed as prizes during the fifth loan campaign. Suggestions as to how they should be awarded should be sent to c. A. Farms worth, APO Sacramento street, San Francisco.
