FOR GOVERNMENT HELP
BIZ JEAN KNOTT

Not every wounded American soldier
is entitled to retraining by the Fed
eral Board for Vocational Training.
Under the law, the soldier must first
have been awarded compensation by
the War Risk Insurance Bureau.
The bureau has awarded payments
for injuries to only 1886 men who are
now receiving special training, but
many thousands more have their ap-
plications under consideration by the

LIEUT.. ADAMS WRITES
 FROM RHINE l. AND

The last I heard of Howard Smith he was in my old Co.,, in the 10th Division. They are due to sail for home soon.
 The weather over here isn't the finest in the world. It rains and snows most of the time. The mud of course is very pleasant for the boys to drill in, being battalion ad- jutant I get out of lot of that.
 1 wonder if the wages will still be as good when the railroads are taken over again by private concerns? l wonder if the Service men will have any preference over those who stay ed at home when they get home? '? Do you hear any talk about that sub ject?
 We'll Dad, news is very scarce so I will bring this to close, and make tracks to my little bed. Hoping that this finds you and litle Sis alright, l remain as ever,
 Your son Shaf. P. s. Write soon and often. Add. Adjutant End Battalion, 12Sth Inf. 32nd Division, American Ex. Forces. Germany,

My Dear Dad:
 Just line to let you know 1 am well, and am getting pretty tired of the place. 1 crave excitement and change of scenery.
 We hear every day that we are go- ing to be sent home soon, and then we hear that we will be here for three months yet, but 1 guess some one has to stay here, so why crab. I am getting along fine and feel as we'll as 1 can expect to, under the circumstances.
 l guess the boys that left here are now coming home one at time, but 1 don't think they need look for those that are up here very soon. It sure will keep the people at home busy showing us a good time when we do get there. We are all raring to go. So far, the only boy I have met from kingman up here is Jim St. Charles he is in the "F" Co.,, of my battalion. I have talked with him several times. He is great big fel- low, you would hardly know him. He sure makes a fine soldier

Make w. s. s.
 a Habit of Peace
By J. Cardinal Gibbons

By continuing the sale of War Savings Stamps throughout 1919 the Government has offered to every man; woman and child an opportunity for the display of practical peace time citizenship by becoming an investor in the se- curities of his country. It also offers to each an opportunity for self-improvement by giving chance to save small amounts reg ularly and systematically and to invest them wisely.
 In the hard school of war we have learned much that should be of value to us and to our country in the days of readjustment. We have learned the necessity of say ing. Indeed it was saving that brought us the victory-the will ingness of the people to save money, to save coal, to save food. The man woman or child who has learned to spend wisely and look forward to. the future, and to lay by something which will help him to unforeseen emergency is not only helping himself but is becom- ing better citizen and more use- full citizen.
 We should welcome the oppor- tunity afforded by our Govern ment to continue the saving habit. To buy War Savings Stamps is the clear duty of every American citizen, young and old.
 I urge all our clergy to promote this campaign by every means in their power. urge our good people to give it their heartiest support and from the splendid ev- idences of their patriotism shown in the last two years, ] am con- fident that it will meet with great success.
 shall follow with profound in terest the result of this move ment. for much of the future of our blessed country will depend upon the outcome.

AVERAGE 23 MILES
 TO GALLON OF GAS

> In a recent gasoline economy test by the Essex stock car, Red Crown Gasoline again proved it's superiority as long mileage, full-powered fuel. In test run from San Francisco to San Jose the car averaged exactly 23 miles to the gallon.
 Four passengers were carried and the automobile editors of the San Francisco Call and San Francisco Bulletin acting as official observers attested that the cars speedometer showed an even 115 miles of travel. Starting from the Standard Oil Com pany's service station at Van Ness Avenue and Pine Streets, San Fran cisco, the cars tank was filled to the cap with Red Crown. The following route was traversed: Down Van Ness to Post, to Presidio Avenue, to Geary St., Cliff House down the Ocean Boulevard to Sloat Boulevard, to Junipero Boulevard, to Colma and thence over the Highway to San Jose. A normal rate of speed was maintained on the entire trip, the speedometer rarely showing less than 20 miles an hour or going above 30.
 The return drive was over the same course as that followed on the outbound trip and was made in about 2k hours. Upon the return of the car at the Standard Oil Con- pany's Van Ness Avenue service sta tion the tank was again filled to the cap with Red Crown. Just an even five gallons were required, showing an average of 23 miles to the gallon.
 This test shows again that Red Crown, straight-distilled, all-refin- cry gasoline, will give maximum miles and uniform power.

THE THRALL OF THE OPEN

The same truth is true of all men who go out into the green, blue eyed wilderness whether they go there in pursuit .of game or butter flies. They find something stranger and better than what they went out to seek, and if they come home dis appointed in the days bag or catch, there is yet something in their eyes and across their brows, a light of peace, an enchanted calm, which tells those who understand that they at all events have seen the great Pan and heard the music he can make out of the pipy hemlocks or the lonely pines.

REVIVAL OF RACING
DUE THIS SUMMER
Foreign Makers To Seek to Regain
American Markets BY Campaign
On Speedway This Year.

Auto racing, checked by the war,
is scheduled for revival early this
summer. Many European manufac-
turers, in an effort to regain their
position in the American market, al
SO on speedways of the United Sta
ready are planning racing campaigns
ties. Nv
Most of the American cars, prob
ably will be entered by the speed
ways themselves or by private own
ers, as it is known that the big fac
tories thin year will devote their en-
tire attention to meeting the public
demand for cars.
The Hudson Motor Company,
whose Super-Sixes created such q
sensation in 1916 and 1917, setting
new records at Chicago, Cincinnati,
Omaha, Tacoma, and Minneapolis, is
known to believe that it has accom-
plished all it set out to do when it
proved the endurance Of its cars.
The Super-Six racers adhered
closely to stock car construction and
except for minor departures, the
chassis were stock in every respect,
but despite this handicap, out Of %
entries, all finished in the money.
at is probable that Hudson will
rest on its laurels for the present.
said C. Fisher Humphreys. "The
speedway records 1t made still stand
while the transcontinental records
held by the Super-Six has never been
equalled.
"The Hudson cars have amply prov
ed their supreme endurance, relia-
bility and speed not only in racing
but in the hands of more than CO.,
900 owners, SO there are, at present,
no more worlds to conquer.
