Army Training Makes
Good Business Men

GAS a general rule we believe thaI
of two men having an equal knoWl-
edge of the banking business ana
equal intelligence, that one who has
served in the Army should be bet
ter man.

tha. another man cannot hope to have
He has been subjected to wholesome
discipline and if he has good stuff IN
him he will have profted by that dis
clpIine and know the part which CO.
operative effort ably directed plays IN
the great world of affairs.
The returned soldiers areg right L
think in asking that the training they
have had be taken into consideration
and that their recompense and partl-
cularly their opportunities for the fu-
ture be based upon their larger status.
Nor need there be any fear that un-
usual ability will not be recognized

are constantly in need of young and
vigorous men who have a detailed
knowledge of the business or industry

Sound Philosophy From
General Pershing

81 don't let anything worry me-"
says General Pershing. 81 do a good
days work, and when it is finished l
go to bed. And what is more, go to
sleep"
More words from the wise. General
Pershing has plenty of things to
worry him if he were of a mind to let
them. While he was abroad he must
have carried heavy mental burdens.
He might have worried himself into
his grave. There must aave been
many a day when he could ot ac-
complish the thing that seemed vital
1t took courage to send his young men
by the thousand into the apparently
hopeless mazes of the Argonne forest,
to know how they fell like grain be-
fore the reaper at Chateau Thierry. 1t
is not easy to determine that brave
men must die.
Waiting for supplies that never
came must have tried his patience and
his nerve more times than history will
tell. Every decision he made was
freighted with responsibility.
Besides al this tax upon him as a
soldier he has personal sorrows of the
kind which tend to pull the eyes wide
open in the dark. Yet here is his phil
osophy:
To refrain from worry; to do days
work, and at the end of it, go to bed
and to sleep.
1t is master recipe for insomnia

plain of wakefulness should study il

TASTES Differ"

We all have our own likes and dis
likes, our own standards of taste, in
the matter of clothes, housefurnish-
ings, amusements, and. so on, and
there is no reason why we should not
express these if we do it in the right
way. But are we taking the right
way when we ridicule or condemn
what we do not like ourselves? We
never know when words thoughtlessly
spoken may bring real unhappiness to
some sensitive friend. 1t is better and
kinder to lay quiet stress on what we
ike than to condemn what we do not
like Circumstances often make it ne
cessary for people to wear clothing or
use furniture or tableware that is a
"thorn in the flesh" to them, ard to
keep this in mind, will make US more
kindly in expressing our own stand
ards.

Height Of Sinks and Work
Tables Important

The height of a woman's kitchen
sink and work tables are important
factors in her well-being and we'll
doing She can't do as much or as
good work and feel we'll and strong
with her sink and table so low that
she has to bend over ta-work, or so
high that she has to "reach up" as
she would were they the proper
height. As a general rule, 80 to 36
inches from the floor is the height for
general work tables and the bottom
Of the sink should usually be 80 to 81
inches from the floor, the home econo-
mics kitchen of the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture suggests.
However, each woman ought to find
out for herself the height of the table
at which she can work most easily
and efficiently, and see that her work
tables and sink are adjusted accord
ingly. Legs which are too long can
be cut off, and those too short can be
raised by blocks under them.

American Legion Denounces
ely Trap" Critics

Can well afford entirely to ignore
the scattered darts of criticism aimed
from ambush at its existence. They
come from places that are as dark
and obscure as they are questionable.
Yet it might be profitable, in passing,
to glance at their sources and inspira-
tion. Briefly characterized, those who
bark at the Legion are those who see
in the Legion a menace to their own
selfish ends. To the alien Stacker and
the little American and the confirmed
exponent of the old-order of things
the American Legion is positive
calamity.
In snarling they do not snarl in
the open Their methods are indi-
rect and hidden. A favorite method of
attack is to set up a fly-trap newspa-
per and raise the cry of class distinc-
tion and what not, carrying such blat-
ant propaganda by loudly claiming
the earth for returned service men.
Claiming the earth when they repre-
sent nothing but their own selfish de-
signs and when they can deliver moth
ing. But the real object is not to
help the service man. 1t is to obstruct
and retard the swiftly-moving plan
of the service men to take their own
interests in their own hands and work
them out through organization.
How unfortunate for all such that
the men who were in service are pro-
ceeding to organize so as to present a
solid front against which social, poll
tical and industrial charlatans must
beat their heads in vain. How discon-
certing to those who dreamed of eX-
plotting the soldier vote and the sol
der influence that the men have re.
turned from service capable Of doing
their own thinking and intent on doing
their own thinking. And having thai
capacity and that intention are unit
ing in one great body to express theil
own thoughts through their own or
ganization in their own concrete way

''FIying Forecasts" to In
form Airn1en of Weather

All interests. civilian and military,
in any way connected with aviation
are expected to profit by new ser
ivce, consisting of "fying forecasts,
which has been instituted by the
Weather Bureau of the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture. By reason of
this special information, which will be
issued twice daily to the office of the
Director of Military Aeronautics, haz-
ard involved in long flights is greatly
lessened. In fact, military aviators
are no longer permitted to undertake
extended air trips, until they have Sc
cured the latest forecasts, to make
sure that an encounter with serious
storms is improbable.
These special weather forecasts are
furnished also to the Naval Communi-
cation Service for the benefit of naval
airmen The reports given the mill
tary authorities include forecasts for
EACH of 13 zones into which continen-
tai United States has been divided by
the Weather Bureau. They are also
supplied free to any newspaper or
private enterprise on condition that
the recipient pay the telegraph
charges.
The need of the service was demon
strated a few weeks ago when a fleet
of military airmen undertook an eX-
tended flight without securing fore
cast of the weather and, in conse-
quence, ran into a storm that caused
considerable damage. This experience
was responsible in part, at least for
the suggestion that the Weather Bur-
eau supply weather forecasts in the
special manner indicated.
This latest activity of the Weather
Bureau is in effect nationwide ex
tension to the forecast service insti
tuted more than year ago, when air
craft began carrying mail between
large cities.

SOME WILD FLOW
ERS CONTAIN DEADLY
POISONS
Many of these Pleasing to the
Eve May Not be Handled

Eye May Not be F1andled
at is rather alarming to realize
that a number of the wild flowers of
which we are all so fond contain dead
" poisons, Says an aticle in "On Ma
lures Trail" in the September issue
of the Boy Scout Magazine, Boys
Life.
"The daffodil is an instance in point
It's long, narrow leaves contain
powerful irritant poison, and children
should be warned most strongly
against chewing them.
"The common foXglove contains
poison which has the most eXtraordi-
nary effect upon the heart, whose ac-
ton may be reduced to only seventeen
beats to the minute. Of any one thus
poisoned, the pupils of the eyes are
widely dilated, and his only chance of
life is to lie absolutely still until the
doctor comes.
Everyone knows the wild arum or
cuckoo-plant, with its big heart -shap-
ed, glossy leaves. A most dangerous
plant it is, too. If you chew a leaf,
your tongue swells enormously; so
much so that you will be almost un~
able to swallow. Melted butter is the
best remedy for poisoning by this
plant.
"The most dangerous of all common
hedgerow plants is the aconite or
monks hood, which has palm-shaped
leaves. A very small dose causes a
strange tingling all over the body, and
Partial blindness. A little more and
death is certain.
"These are all plants which are
more or less attractive to the eye.
There are others which seem to adver-
tise themselves as dangerous. The
hemlock, for instance. If you pinch
leaf it gives out nasty, mousy -edor.
One need hardly state that it is very
poisonous. being a powerful narcotic.
The sufferer sinks into drowsy state
which. if remedies are not at hand,

"All the nightshades have sinister
appearance and should be avoided al
together. There are also many COM
mon shrubs of which the leaves, if
eaten, produce unpleasant results.
Among these are the common privet,
the elder, holly and laburnum.
"Plane-tree leaves will cause in
some people an illness resembling a
bad attack of hay fever, and this not

such is the Primula obconica, which is

William Fletcher Follows a
Premonition and Manages
To Save His Wardrobe
and Catch Thief.
SHERIFF ALSO HUNcHING
Ben Carter Who Fled From Kenosha
With Property # His Friend Is Ar
Tested AT Chicago Station ard Comes
Back and Pays Fine In Court.

William Fletcher, a negro residing
over on Victoria street, still believes
in lunches He insists that you
can call them premonitions if you
want to be stylish, but that whatever
you call them there is something that
comes around and tells you to get busy
and that if you follow the hunch-beg
MISREPRESENTATION are going to
save yourself trouble and possibly loss.
Fletcher holds the fact that he re-
covered a good portion Of his ward robe
to the fact that he followed bunch.
Other Man Also Strong for Hunch.
Ben Carter, another negro, who lived
at the same house as Fletcher, is in
clined to consider those same lunches
as an expensive luxury and nuisance.
1t was the bunch which Fletcher had
that over Swallowed the bunch which
Carter had and as result the latter
paid fine of twenty-five dollars in
this morning and had a trip to Youngs-
town, o., interrupted by day or more.
According to the story told Sheriff
Meyer, Carter had O. bunch that when
Fletcher went to work in the morning
he wouldn It come home till noon. But
Carriers bunch went wrong, for long
about ten O'Clock Fletcher's bunch
showed in and told him something was
wrong. He left his work and went home.
Finds Suit Case Stolen.
Following the bunch he reached home
just in time to find out the Fletcher
had left on ten 'clock train and that
a suit case full of clothing was missing.
Fletcher hurried to Sheriff Meyer.
Meyer hurried to call the sheriff in
Chicago and the sheriff there hurried
to the train which pulled in just before
noon. Carter was pulled in by the
sheriff just about the same time the
train pulled into the station. He had
his huch still, but he also had the suit
case belonging to Fletcher. Aleck Rit-
ter brought Fletcher back to Kenosha
late Tuesday afternoon and this morn
ing he was before Judge Tully on
charges of larceny. He said he had
been keeping the suit case for Fletcher
and that he had a hunch that he should
continue to take care of it. Judge
Tully said he had a bunch that twenty
five and costs would be about right.
Carter had seventy-two dollars in
cash and he paid the fine and costs and
was hurrying away when butcher
came in and insisted that he had
little bill coming. Carter got a new
bunch that he should pay the bill and
he followed it. Then he left Kenosha
with the intention of continuing the
trip to Youngstown.
