killed on the battlefield.
Paris alone, the paper adds, has lost
1878 students of different universities
and colleges, besides $50 journalists
and men of letters. The figures for
provincial France are not yet avail
able. but they are said to be very
large.
Close Educational Institutions.
Since August 2, 1914, most of
Frances great educational institutions
have been practically closed down,
only a few elderly professors and a
limited number of younger men, phys
ically unfit for military service, re-
naming to keep the lamp of knowl-
edge burning.
To repopulate universities and col
leges without delay, is, in the view of
the authorities, imperative If France
is to remain in the forefront of intel
lectual life. M Lafferre, minister of
public instruction, promises special
facilities for students ''as soon as they
are demobilized" but the machinery
by which men are returned to civilian
life is working very slowly.

formerly with Associated Press and State
Journal in Topeka.)
With the Third Army of Occupa-
ton in Germany (by mail to the To-
peka State Journal)-The 353rd all
Kansas infantry regiment of the S9th
division has gained the reputation of
being the thriftiest regiment of the
division, as well as a forgetting"
fighting outfit. 1 was talking to a
lieutenant from Virginia, now a mem
Der of the regiment, and he told me
that in January the men in the regi-
ment sent $4,000 in money orders
to the folks back in the States, three
times more than any. other regiment
in the division.
"You know that speaks mighty wei!
for the class of men in my outfit"
from Virginia and had some misgiv-
ings when 1 Joined a Kansas regi-
ment, I am mighty glad now that l
have had a chance to serve with such
men. They are the finest set I ever
met"
And while the boys are sending
money home they are aot neglecting
their correspondence, as shown by the
fact that the 353rd gets twice as much
mail as any other 0utfh in the divi-
sion. The Kansas men IOugnt IN tHe
ST. Mihiel and Meuse-Argonne drives
just as we'll as they write letters, the
lieutenant explained. They took ma
chine gun nests just like they were
blowing corn or shocking wheat. In
the ST. Mihie1 drive the 353rd at
tackled with the division from a posi-
ton near Limey and in the Meuse-
Argonne sector held a position in
Bots de Bantheville. In both of these
scraps a very peculiar thing happened.
In the first the regiment, part of
the S9th division, was opposed by the
SSth division of the Boche and in
the Argonne the regiment took pris-
oners from the 353rd boche infantry
regiment.

Eoroot What He Needed

From the Republican, Mt. Giliad,
Ohio: The editor had an interesting
experience some time ago, when a
young gentleman came to his Office
and asked for a copy of the Morrow
County Republican. He scrutinized
it carefully when a copy was handed
him, and then said: "Now | knowl"
what is it you are looking for we
inquired. "My wife sent me after a
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Rene
dy, and / forgot the name. went to
several stores and the clerks named
over everything in the line on the
shelf except 'Chamberlain's'.. III try
again, and III never go home without
Chamberlain Cough Remedy" The
Republican would suggest to the pro-
prietors of stores, that they post their
clerks, and never let them substitute.
Customers lose faith in stores where
substituting is permitted, to say moth
ing of the injustice to makers Of good
goods and the disappointment of Gus
toners.
