YOUR COLD is EASED

clogged-up nostrils and the air pass
ages in the head, stops nose running,
relieves the headache, dullness, fever
ishness, sneezing, soreness and stiff
ness.
Don't stay stuffed-up! Quit blowing
and snuffiing! Clear your congested
head! Nothing else in the world gives
such prompt relief as "Pape's Cold
Compound" which costs only a few
cents at any drug store, 1t acts with
out assistance, tastes nice, contains nc

and answers has been prepared to IN

ViCtor's Flag Is Always
Placed at Top of Mast,

Originally the practice OF hosting
flags on public buildings only part OF
the way up the flagpOIes was military
one Ever since flags were used in war
if has been the custom to have the
flag of the superior or conquering ma
tion above that of the inferior or van
ouished. When an army found itself
hopelessIy beaten it hauled its flag
down far enough for the victOrS' flag
TO be placed above it on the same pole.
This was a token, not only Of submiS-'
sion, but of respect. In like manner
when a famous soldier died flags we're
lowered not only to indicate respect to
his memory, but to show that he had
succumbed to the greatest cOnqueror
Of all-death, for which flag space was
left at the top of the staff.

SAYS ARM OF
100000 SUFFICIENT
That's What General Perish
ing Told Military Commit
tee Of Congress.

Washington. Dissenting in many
important respects from the program
recommended by the war department
and the general staff, General Perish
ing told the military committee of
congress Friday that 100000 men,
raised entirely by voluntary enlist
ment, should be the outside figure
considered for standing army.
He favored universal military train
ing to provide an emergency reserve,
but thought general educational work
should be combined with it and mill
tary discipline somewhat relaxed"
so that the system would be in COM
plete harmony with democratic insti-
tutions. He fixed six months as the
training period.
The department had recommended
an army of more than 100000, with a
system of universal training, not en-
bracing the educational feature. It's
recommendation for training period
was tnree months.
Departing again from the expressed
views of the department, the general
declared army purchasing should be
reorganized in new bureau, apart
from the quartermaster corps, and
that a separate department of the
government should be organized to CO.
ordinate and supervise military, naval
and commercial aeronautics. He con-
sidered the departments request for
231 general staff officers excessive and
made clear his opposition to any effort
by the staff to extend it's authority
into the details of the department
bureaus and of the line.
During the day of testimony before
the two committees, which opened
series of special joint sessions to heal
his views on peace time reorganization
of the army, the former commander
of the American expeditionary forces
expressed several times his unfamiliar
ity with the present makeup and polio!
of the general staff, and emphasized
that he was speaking directly from
his experience in the field. But h
did not hesitate to put into points
language his opinions on the abstrac
questions presented by committe
members.

on desirable types of live stock may
be obtained from the department OF
agriculture.
Sires Should Be Registered.
Question-Need pure-bred sires pur-
chased be registered?
Answer-Pure-bred animals bought
or sold preferably should be registered
as a proof Of pure breeding.
Ouestion-f a person has a grade
sire, bull, for instance, of exception
ally good type and which resembles
pure-bred and he intends to get reg
istered pure-bred bull later, can he be
enrolled in the campaign?
Answer-Not until he stops using
the grade bull as sire. 1t is suggest
ed that he sell the grade bull, and,
until he obtains a pure-bred bull of his
own, breed his cows to a good pure
bred bull owned by some one else. In
that case he would be eligible to en-
rollment.
Question-May children be enrolled
and is there any age limit?
Answer-There is no age limit. Chill
dren who own live stock and who are
able to sign their names and comply
with the requirements may be en-
rolled. Children interested in live
stock should be encouraged to enroll.
Briefly, a person must believe thai
the scrub rooster and the scrub boal
are as Objectionable, in principle, al
the scrub bull. There must be clear
, sweep of inferior sires if the owne
J wishes Uncle Sam to officially enrol
, him in the Better Sires-Bette
) Stock" crusade. But the conditions ar
: easily fulfilled by persons who, reali7
ing the need for live stock improve
1 ment, are ready to put their belief
e into actual practice.

She Knew a Way.

A Terre Haute school was trying
hard to get a new flag for one of the
rooms. The children were denying
themselves candy and other luXuries
in order to bring their pennies to
school to add to the flag fund. But
little Pearl had not brought any.
"My mother gets my candy for me-
she explained her delinquency, so
can't bring that money. But I'll tell
YOU what I will do, teacher. I'll not

Comparatively Easy Matter in Spring

that the COW is generally on pasture

to care for herself she will keep Clean
In the winter, however, she is kept IN
