The Grand Day
For a. Doughboy

On payday, there is something
grandly eloquent about the Ameri-
can soldier. He has no worries. His
insurance and allotment (if he has
the latter have been deducted from
his pay. Posterity and dependents
nave been cared for automatically.
He is far removed from the restrain
ing influence of home ties. He is in
care-free, hearty, hard-working,
housekeeping profession. And to-
morrow, or next week, or next
month-he may die. Today is pay
day. What he has is his, with no
strings tied to it. He may be the
quiet sort of lad, who thinks only
of some nice bit of linen to send
home to his mother. He may be
dreaming Of a thrilling souvenir for
her to whom the "Dere Mable' let
tiers are addressed. He may have
lacked sufficient sweets in his ration
and may crave for an orgy on choco-
late. He may know of farmer with
dozen eggs to sell. Or, happily or
unhappily, he may want his cronies
close round the table, with the bones
rolling fast and plenty of liquid re-
freshment to drown the dust of a
months marching. Whatever it is
the fracs are itching, squirming and
wriggling in his pocket, and the
mind regales itself on the possibly
purchased pleasures, be they gross
or refined. The francs are dancing
to the strain of the payday" bugle
call, and in the pocket of our dough-
boy the franc-shimmy is short and
sweet.-Capt. Il. A. Griffin in Janu-
Try Sunset.

ICE FREEZES IN SUMMER
But There IL None Formed In That
Cave In Winter.

Ice freezes in summer time, but not
in winter, in the DEBORAH Ice Cave,
In Winneshiek county, northeastern
Iowa. While ice does not invariably
form in the walls of the cave all sum-
mer, it is there many of the warmer
months, while in the fall and early
winter the walls are dry and bare.
The State Geological society's ex-
PLANTATION Of the phenomenon is that
in the winter the temperature in the
cave, the same as outside, goes below
the freezing point. However, all mois.
ture near the surface has been sealed
in the ground and rocks by the frost,
and no water finds its way into the
cave. The walls Of the cavern get
colder and colder, and retain the cold.
When spring thaws release the water
1t trickles into the cave across the
cold walls and then freezes. That con-
dition continues until late in summer.
The cave is the only one of it's kind
known in Iowa.

Target Tips and Hunting Helps

@. Which is the best, revolver
having a cylinder which revolves tt
he right or to the left?
M. A. c., Poison, Mont
Ans. 1t makes no difference
which way the cylinder revOlves SC
long as the mechanism is constructed
properly.
@. Which is the best, left OF
right hand twist rifing?
Ans. There is no choice what
even between left and right hand
twist rifing. The only possible diff
ference in shooting results is in the
drift of the bullet, and this will be
ust as much with left hand twist
filing as with right hand twist riff
ing, but will be in the opposite
direction.
@. Which is best in a 22-calibre
rifle, smOkeless, black, Lesmok or
semi-smokeless powder, for accuracy
and the effect on the barrel?
G.. T. L., Galva, Kan.
Ans, For best results for accuracy
and for minimum wear on the barrel,
use LeSuOh OF SoulSuOk0l6SS.
Black powder is accurate but cakes
up in the barrel, and smokeless
powder is inaccurate and hard on
the barrel.
@. What is the best way to hold
rifle off hand?
H. B. NJ, Ross, Wyo.
Ans. There are two positions in
general use. The first and most
practical for hunting work, where
quick shooting is necessary is to hold
the left arm out away from the
body. For fine target work many
shooters rest the left elbow against
the side. This gives greater accur-
acy, but is not so we'll adapted for
quick shots on game.

Divided Senate
May Compromise

The deadlock in the United States
ssenate which has prevented action
on the treaty of peace with Germany
promises to speedily dissolve. In the
opinion of minority members on both
sides the funny business has gone
about far enough. They are threat
ening their leaders with desertion.
IF you must stand out for unucom-
promising victory or defeat, maybe
we will make it defeat" is about
what they have said to Lodge and
Hitchcock. ng.e
These minorities are for mild
reservations. The Republican mild
reservationists told Lodge, their
leader, last week, to arrange BIZ
partisan meeting and talk compro-
mise. They intimated the POSSIBLE
ity that they might get Disguised and
help the Democrats put over the
whole treaty without reservations.
Lodge is reported to have listened
carefully and to have indicated his
willingness to make some conces-
sions.
On the other hand the Demo-
cratic members who see their lead
ers delaying the game by an uncom-
promising insistence, with Wilson,
that the treaty must not be modified
in any way, are talking of electing a
new senate -eader at their caucus
January Is.
Senator Lodge did not refuse to
listen to the committee. sent to him
by the Republican minority. He
went and had talk with Senator
Underwood, Democrat favoring
mild reservations.
Both Lodge and Hitchcock are
bowling and saying, "You first, Gas
ton" But the mild reservation
minorities want ratification at once,
and they are making the leaders step
lively. Senator Hiram Johnson,
hearing clear out in California Of
what was up in Washington, decided
to go east without delay. Each
party thinks it's the other side to
move first.
All this shows that there is not
Indifference on the part of senators
as to whether or not the United
States ratifies or refuses to ratify.
Each side is divided into sections,
roughly, as follows:
Democrats, For ratification
without reservation; 2-For ratif-
cation with mild reservations; 8
For killing the treaty.
Republicans, For killing the
whole treaty; 2-For ratification
with strong reservations; 3-For
ratification with mild reservations.
So far both sides have stuck to-
gether, allowing their leaders to
fight it out on the basis of having
their way or nothing. In the present
situation it is seen that sentiment
favoring ratification in some form is
quite strong. Impatience with un-
compromising leaders on both sides
would indicate willingness to patch
up differences and join the allies.
In the meantime allied representa-
tives are gathering in Paris to put
thru the measures of the peace
treaty without the cooperation of
the United States. Germany con-
cedes that our entering the agree
ment or staying out does not affect
her acting upon the articles of the
treaty. The allies on their part have
conceded to a certain amount of
feasibility in Germany's objections
as to tonnage to be turned over in
payment for the Scapa Flow ship
sinking. Germany disavows all re-
sponsibility for that sinking, any

Lining the banks Of the User river
far as the eye can see, are the
trenches which for so many months
during the war were occupied by the
Belgian and German armies, the Bel
gians on the south bank and the Ger
mans on the north. They still bear
many marks Of shell and rifle fire and
mouldy straw lying on the damp floors
still conveys some idea of the hard
ships to which the soldiers were sub
jected.
On the German side Of the river is
a dugout, built to resist the heaviest
projectiles. and cool even on hot
day. It was q favorite gathering spot
for the Germans when the fighting
was fercest, but it now serves the
more useful purpose Of a refrigerator.
Instead Of the hunks and chairs
which once lined its sides one now sees
pile upon pile Of beer cases filed
with refreshments for the soldier guard
at work cleaning up the ground.
Shows Marks Of Struggle.
Behind the dugout the bodies Of
three soldiers-two Belgians and one
German-were buried on the bank Of
a tiny pond made by bursting shells.
Little crosses mark the resting places
and over them peoples nod.
Along the User one may plainly see
the effects Of the hard-fought struggle.
Here and there the top Of a dugout
has been crushed in, and further along
the duckboards from an abandoned
trench may be seen sticking through
the mud. Within sight Of the bridge
the muzzle of a field piece, rusted and
useless, points to the sky.
Much Of the debris Of the battle
field has already been collected. Miles
upon miles of barbed wire have been
reclaimed from the entanglements, Ger
man and allied, which stretched in
front of the lines, but at some points
along the river bank the old entangle-
ments still remain, rusted and twisted
on stakes which are fast falling on
the ground. There are great piles Of
reeled wire which has not been un-
wound since it left the wire mills,
while the military telephone systems
are still stretched upon short stakes.
Return to Ruined Homes.
The people Of Dixmunde, like the
people Of every other destroyed Bel.
gian town, are gradually returning to
the ruins Of their homes. The help Of
the government is giving them heart
and strength to begin life over again.
Here one may see man patching
up a. shell hole In his house with
few bricks taken from the ruins Of his
neighbor's home, and In another place
men, and women, too. are patching
a roof.
But these instances are few. In
most cases the destruction was 80
complete that nothing is left for the
poor Belgian but to build a new house.
But the people are happy and cheer
full. They 60 about their work with
smiling faces and merry laughter.
They are back home.
