MAJOR GENERAL PRAISES
SERVICE OFFERED BY "Y''

Spread upon the records of the
Third division. A. e. f., and Just
brought to the attention of the ma
tiOnal war work council of the Y. M.
G. A.. Is general order issued by
command of Major General Dickman,
which "Y" officials have hailed as an
emphatic answer to charges that Red
Triangle workers had avoided the dam
ger zones in France and had wrung
exOrbitant prices from the soldiers for
the comforts which the association had
sent overseas. General Dickman de
rected that copy Of the order be sent
to every one Of the thirty-four men
and six women who went with the di.
vision through the fighting of Chateau
Thierry and along the Marine, to st.
Mihiel. and later into action north Of
Verdun and along the Meuse.
The Y. M. C. A. has made public
General Dickman's order along with
n communication from Col. J. G. Rhea
of another division which was in the
ST. Mihiel fighting. Colonel Rhea gave
figures showing the large amount OF
supplies which were distributed in his
division by "Y" secretaries without
charge.

VOICES CONTEMPT
FOR FOE FIGHTERS
REPORTS OF FRATERNizING BY
AMERICAN AND FOE TROOPS
DENIED BY RED TRIANGLE
WORKER.

Chicago.-Reports of fraterniZing of
allied and foe troops following the
signing of the armistice on the western
front are denied in letter from III. B.
Stecher. Racine, Wis.,, received at the
offices of the national war work coun-
Gil, Y. M. G. A., here.
Stecher was Y. NJ. G. A. worker
attached to the Ninety-first division.
He served for more than six months on
three fighting fronts-at st. Mihiel,,
In Flanders and the Argonne. Twice
he was cited for bravery and awarded
the D. S. G.
Before going to France to serve as
"Y" worker Stecher was associated
with the Hamilton Beach Manufacture
ing company at Racine. Formerly he
was member of the California Ma
tional Guard when he was living in
Los Angeles, Cal. His parents, Mr..
and Mrs. M. d. Stecher, live in Chi
cago.
Referring to reports of fraternizing
of the troops Stecher says: Certain
ly there was no attempt or desire on
tne part or the men or our division to
fraterniZe with our much-despised op-
ponents and had there been, the Off
GERS would not have permitted it. AS
matter of fact the guns were going
right up to the time the armistice went
into effect. You see, our boys have
had n mighty good chance to size up
the calber of the other side, and had
the Germans shown any indications of
good sportsmanship in the fighting no
doubt we would feel some little re-
spect for them. Having been dough-
boy myself in the past, and now hav-
ing gone through all the fighting with
my division. believe my viewpoint is
the same as that Of the majority of
our division, and, personally, 1 have
the utmost contempt for the German
soldier, his methods and his IDEALS"

Weather Prophets.

Many Australian birds, such as the
reed warbler, the little grass bird,
black-and-white fantail and bush lark,
sing regularly at night. During the
mating season the blue wren occa-
sIonally charms the night air with his
delightful music. The magpie, too. at
times breaks into song when most OF
the other members Of the choir are In
the land of dreams. Many bush
dwellers contend that the magpie'a
nocturnes denote fine weather. The
persistent calls of the coachwhip and
the satin bird, they say, herald the
coming Of wet weather. Another har
binger of wetfulness 10 the black cock

NATIONAL OFFICES SCOUTS.

At the national headquarters of the
Boy Scouts Of America in the Fifth

a few boy scouts are employed in
responsible capacities. These have
been organized as Troop 400 Of Man

other employed boys In the city they
are carrying out the scout program
faithfully.
Before Office hours they line up and
go through the regular setting-up exer-

enthusiasm quite different from the
usual distinctive "office boy crawl"
These are the boys who meet GUS

Why DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND
SWAMP ROOT

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi-

1t is a physicians prescription.
Swamp-Root is a strengthening medi-
cine. 1t helps the kidneys, liver and blad-

should do.
Swamp Root has stood the test of years.
1t is sold by all druggists on its merit
and it should help you. No other kidn1y
medicine has so many friends.
BE sure to get Swamp-Root and start
treatment at once.

COVENANT OF THE

Document As It Was Signed

Causing Discussion In
This Country.
EVERYONE SHOULD REsn IT

The people VI the United L ..,4es have
been asked. by both the proponents
and the opponents Of the peace tfeaty
and League Of Nations covenant, to
give expression to their desires
as to the ratification of the treaty as
1t stands or with amendments or reser-
vations. Some Of them have respond
ed, ut the meetings addressed by the
president and by the opposing sena-
tors, or by communications to their
senators. But the vast majority Of the
people nre handicapped by their ig-
norance of the matter. Probably not
one in ten thousand has read the
covenant Of the League Of Nations as
1t was presented to the senate, main
ly because few have had the oppor-
tunity. In order that our readers may
be prepared to do their full duty as
citizens in regard to the controversy,
the complete text of the covenant Is
herewith presented, and they are asked
to read 1t carefully.
