Connolly SAYS HE'S
FREE, INDEPENDENT
Does Not Deny Republicans
Are Trying to Nominate
Him
ISSUES CHALLENGE
TO MAYOR LAWSON

William NJ. Connolly, Democratic can
dldsie for mayor, has issued state
menh which while mol denying asser-
lions Of somo Democrats to the eecl
that Republicans looked upon him as az
nliaied with The Alfred /. dupont fac
tlon arc using heir influence to try to
nominate Connolly, sets forth hat he
Is free and Independent candidate"
Mr., Connolly says:
owing 10 the inuendoes that are
being handled about relative 10 my po-
litical association With organizations
aud individuals, / wish TO say that my
democracy has never been questioned,
and IN all my career have been loyal
10 my party aud It's policies.
Why such scurrilOus and malicious
falsehoods should be circulated as that
am a member Of the Voters Nom
Partisan hague, and that certain In
dividual Is financing my campaign, Is
beyond by comprehension.
81 therefore wish 30 say 10 the
Democratic voters OF the city OF VIII
that | am free and indie
pendent candidate, acting within my
rights, and am standing
on the platform OF the Declaration OF
Independence. To show myself be-
fore the voters and let them judge me
by the company / keep as well as my
opponent challenge Mr.. Lawson 10
60 into an open primary and show the
voters our future assistants IN tho
Of the next municipal
government by naming now, In adj
vance OF the primary election and es-
pecially not later than May 6, all the
men whom entieh Of us win appoint
In case OF election 10 MI the positions
that must be fllled by The mayor in the
next two years"
II will be observed that the above
statement does not deny the charge OF
some Democrats that men active In
the Alfred l. dupont faction are ac-
tive IN behalf Of Connolly.
Mayor Lawson did not care TO dis
cuss Connelly's challenge today, and Il
is altogether likely he viii ignore It.
Some friends Of the Mayor raised a
question as TO whether or not the
naming in advance OF men Mayor Law
son would appoint In event OF his re-
election might moi conflict with that
provision of the State Constitution
prohibiting the promising or Offering
OF any valuable thing by a candidate
for office.

insignia AS WORN
BY THREE ARMIES
First, Second and Occupa-
tion Troops Patches
Are Described
MANY "a" MEN ARE
SEEN ON STREETS.

The men Uncle sam sert abroad to
night the Huns were not only divided
into divisions, but into field armies. the
field army being the largest possible
tactical unit and being composed OF
varying numbers Of divisions.
or field armies the United States, in
the recegt war had at first two, called
the flrst and second. The British and
French had many more than this. With
the signing or the armistice a third was
created, numbered "3," sent into Ger
many and called usually the army Of
occupation
In a field army there are a number
OF officers, and men who are not divi-
sional troops-that is. belong TO no one
division. For instance. there is the per-
sonnel Of the army headquarters. There
are aviators who belong TO the Army
and not any particular division. There
may be extra engineer units which are
not divisional troops, although divisions
TO include engineer regiments. There
are usually non-divisional artillery
troops. IL is obvious that it would be
inappropriate for these men to wear di-
yisional badges, yet they ought TO
wear something. The East Army there
fore, adopted a block letter "A" and
the 2d a "B."
Many soldiers have already been
noted on the streets here wearing this
big black A, and in the lower part be-
low the cross-bar are various parti-
colored patches and small emblems.
Sometimes these are red and white,
sometimes an engineer castle In Grim
son and sometimes the bull's-eye ef-
feet Of the aviation corps. Each little
device indicates that the wearer served
the Army as a whole in some capacity.
In the lower lobe OF the 2d Army's.
capital "B" are similar colOred patches
Of various geometric forms, with sim
liar meanings. Sometimes a soldier will
be found wearing his divisional device
inside the Army's capital letter. This,
10 has been stated, is wrong. If a man
belongs TO a division he should wear
its badge only. II he belongs to the
Army, but not TO a division, he should
wear the Armys device, properly
worked out. but never both.
When the Bird Army, or army Of oc-
cupation, was formed it was com
posed Of units taken from both the
ist and 2d field armies. The new army
had a new headquarters stafT Of its
own and. for the sake Of uniformity
men formerly serving with headquar-
ters Of the ist and 2d respectively, dis
carded the block letters and wore
blue circular patch with an inner cir
Gle Of red inclOsing a capital "A" on q
hlun field The red circular hpinC
equivalent to an 90" this combina-
tion made the initials "a. o." stand
ing for army Of occupation.

QUIT MEAT IF YOUR

Drink lots Of water.

We are nation Of meat eaters and
our blood is filed with uric acid, says
q well-known authority, who warns
us to be constantly on guard against
kidney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood Of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork; they
get sluggish; the elininative tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained in
the blood to poison the entire system.
When your kidneys ache and feel
like Jumps Of lead. and you have sting

is irritable, obliging you to seek relief
during the night; when you have Sc

rheumatism in bad weather. get from
your pharmacist about four ounces of
Jad Salts: take tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast each
morning and in few days your kid
neys will act fine. This famous salts
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon Juice, combined with lithia, and
has been used for generations to flush
and stimulate clogged kidneys, to
neutralize the acids in urine so it is
no longer a source of irritation, thus
ending urinary and bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink. and nobody can
make q mistake by drinking little
occasionally to keep the kidneys clean

there was any possible way to over

Miss Moore explained that Christ

"For as I have told you this is the
country of the holly and mistletoe,

no easy matter either for the branches
