Robt. Gibson Of Crested Butte, found
his mother and sister waiting to greet
him, they having motored down that
morning from the Buttes with Jos.
Fausone. Also John Malensek, son
Of Mat Nalensek, Of the Buttes, was
among returning boys in khaki on
that same train. John is as fat rs a

could hardly persuade the military
men to pass him with a height of only
five feet one inch. when the limit is five
feet two. However, well bet there
were no better soldiers in France than
these two Crested Butte boys.

A New Came.

COME friends of Senator Walsh Of
~ Massachusetts,. who drove into
Washington from Boston this week, told
him Of a new outdoor game for boys
that Is much superior to ring-around-
the-rosy. croquot and other thrilling
outdoor sports.
The game is "flnd the automobile
tire" Walsh's friends discovered it
when they were driving into Washing
ton at night and suddenly saw brand
new automobile tire laying at the side
Of the road. Backing up their car with
the intention of picking UP the tire, they
were somewhat surprised to find that q
rope was attached to 1t and some boys
behind q hedge fence were controlling
the rope. Walshs friends were wise
enough not to attempt to pick up the
tire, but u score Of other persons. 1t
later developed. tried to pick up the
tire, only to find 1t jerked out OF their
hands and through the hedge fence amid
the laughter Of the boys.

the British food supplies would have

been an early end to the soldiers and
ammunition which Britain was con-
stantly sending to France.
The United States. could have sent
no forces to the western front and
the result would have been the sur
render which tho allies themselves, in
the spring OF 1917, regarded as not a
remote possibility. America would
then have been compelled to face the
German power alone. and to face it
long before we had had an opportunity
to assemble our resources and equip
our armies. The world was preserved
from all these calamites because the
destroyer and the convoy solved the
problem OF the submarine and because
back of these agencies of victory lay
Admiral Beatty's sQuadrons, holding at
arms length the German surface ships
while these comparatively fragile craft
were saving the liberties Of the world.
