The politicians all have hepheWs,
cousins, and personal heelers who
have the most admirable qualifications
for sculping soldiers monuments for
their homo towns.
Now, children, remember that the
thrift stamp buyer of today is the
automobile owner Of future years,
while the candy and ice cream soda
buyers are mostly qualified for walk

Some one asks what the country
people will do now in case of sickness
with so many towns without any
physician Well wonders can be ac-
complished with horse chestnut in
your pocket, a camphor bag around
your neck, and those 178 bottles of
bitter medicine on the upper shelf of
the closet.

The employer who turns down the
man whose only proof of ability is
an honorable discharge from the
army, will perhaps be the one who
later complains that his force have
never had any training in learning
to surmount difficulties.

world, the German soldiers return

never be ratified.

NISH.--Ali along the main highway
from north to south of Serbia praetic-
ally all the buildings are without win
dows and doors.
The retreating Bulgarians and Ger
mans limited their work of destruction
in many places to this. Whether they
wanted the window frames and shashes
for fuel: Whether they took the win-
dows away with them, or whether 1t
was merely wanton destruction. is not
known. In some regions they seem
to have placed an explosive under the
window frame. There remained only
the ragged edges of the wall where
the window frame had been and a gap
Ing hole in the wall below.
Window glass Is not to be had In
Serbia. Most of these windowless
buildings remain mused, but in a num-
ber of places the window space is fill
ed to within six inches Of the top with

reaching the interior now comes either
through the door when 1t is open or
through the narrow space six inches
