 Buy German Made Goods
 REASONS l. To protect American labor from the competition of German cheap lApor, so that our returning sol diers will not walk the streets looking for jobs while our stores ara flooded with German goods. 3. To protect our manufacturers by following the principle lad down by Lloyd George when he said: we will permit no unfair competition of the selling of Ger msn goods below the actual cost of production"
 8. For self-defense. No sign Of repentance or change of heart has come from Germany. Enduring military defeat, Germany turns 10 economie war for world domtn- atiOR. The date of Germanys next war; on the world depends only upon her economic strength long as an Allied boycott keeps Germany weak. she cannot go to war.
 4. To keep out German espionage which Is promoted by Germans in foreign trade.
 5 To keep cut German propaganda which is in large part financed by German firms in foreign trade. $ To show our loathing for the criminals of Germany and our re- pulsion for their blood-stained goods.

You should have seen them hustle out their parachutes and abandon the balloons. As they came falling down through the air we cIrcled about closely but of course, didn't open fire, as that's against the rules of the game. AS soon as they touched ground they took cover like rabbits"
 Magoun Is the only American in his squadron, having joined in February of last year. He has bagged five German planes. While carrying bombs for low attack in the recent offensive he re- ceiyed bullet through his left armr but managed to return to his own lines. Magoun tells of companion In his squadron who had one of the lucdest escapes during the war. He was put out of action 1000 feet In the air when a bullet perforated his gasO- line tank. He was rendered uncOn- scious by the fumes and his machine took a nose dive to earth, but he es- capped without a scratch.
 A section of the Royal air force op- erating In the YpreS salient has lost its only American member, who had been with the squadron only ten days when he went on a bombing raid at low elevation. He was hit by ma Chine-gun bullet and his plane fell In flames He WAS taken prisoner.
 The efforts of newspapers to pro mote good feeling between the people of England and the thousands of Amer leans received official backing when Sir RandOlf Baker, member of parlla- ment, offered to take charge of the American troops welfare department of the British government. His plans contemplate continuous program of healthful recreation In every Amerl- can rest camp and training camp in England. Special London theatrical companies will be sent out. An or ganization known as "Sammy's Blighty league" Is being formed.

The American infantryman In the expedItiOnary forces carries POO rounds of ammunition in the pockets of his light canvas webb belt and his bando- leers. The German soldier has only 120 rounds, and 30 of these are in his knapsack. To secure them at a critical moment he must lose valuable time.
 The American webb belts, according to the war department, are far su- perior to the German leather bando- leerB. They are not affected by pro- longed rains nor torrid weather. The manufacture of these belts Is one of the most intricate of the operations In the textile field United States army belts are made almost entirely of cot ton.
 The exact weight of the 220 rounds carried by the American soldier in France Is F pounds. With the Spring field rifle 2S aimed shots can be fired each minute. Firing from the hip 40 shots can be fired minute, The new United States model 1917 (moditied Endeld) does even better.

LUXEMBOURG WILL
STAY A GRAND ,DUCHY
Voters Decide for Customs
Alliance With France.


LUXEMBOURG, Sept. 2s-The plebiscite
held to-day to. determine the future
government and economic policy Of the
Grand Duchy Of Luxembourg resulted
in a majority In favor of the retention
of Grand Duchess Charlotte as ruler
and for a custom union with France.
A heavy vote was cast-women, old
and young. notwithstanding the heavy
early morning rain, going to the polls
and voting with the men. 1t is be-
lieved that the ballots of the suffragists
proved q decided factor, since they
favored the retention of the present
Government. The Clericals. who also
supported the Grand Duchess, paved the
way for woman suffrage in Luxembourg
Chief interest in the plebiscite was
displayed in the question of an economic
alliance, whether this should be between
the Grand Duchy and Belgium OF
France, owing to the dependency of the
iron industry on the outside for raw ma
terials. The newspapers were divided
evenly between an alliance with France
or Belgium.
Those who favored Belgium argued
that King Albert did not seek the Lux
| emboprg dynasty, which fact, they said
would protect the independence of th'
| Grand Duchy. They also said that tn,
natural outiet LOT Luxembourg wal
| through Antwerp.
On the other hand. proponents o.
| France urged a French alliance on tn,
ground that France was the only power
| that would be able to give the Goa
| needed for the domestic iron industry.
Those who favored a republic for tn
| Duchy asserted that their efforts wer,
| due to a desire to eliminate the German
| dynasty and that no other dynasty wa
available. No hostility was expressed
during the campaign to Grand Duches
Charlotte, whose constitutional power
| and influence are slight.
