MILITARY WAC" IN ACTION.
Word Ouflpnk

Colonel Vogelhuber had had a good
day. He was the Austrian commander
in Buie. town of Istra-the land
which during recent weeks has been
claimed with so much fervor by both
Italy and Jugo-Slavia. The country,
although containing a large Italian
population, has for centuries been
under the rule of Austria. During
the war, Austria, fearing and hating
the Italians Of Istra. placed every
town under drastic military control.
1t was the chief task OF General
Vogelhuber, commander of Buje. to
make the Italians feel his presence
They had felt 1t today Incensed by
his latest DEGREES. they had come in
crowds below his windows. discussing.
gesticulating, angrily demanding an
audience, until his troops had rammed
them in the stomach with the butts
of rifles and driven them off. Off to
their homes where they would find
that during their absence few more
objects had mysteriously disappeared.
Wooden clothing. perhaps. or some
pieces of furniture or cherished pic
ture. Not stolen, of course. "Requisi-
toned" 1t was neat.
He had had a good day, but he
would have a better evening. They
had wanted an audience. Very well.
That evening he would grant an aud
fence to their leading citizens More
than that-he would dine them!
The leading citizens of Buje will
not soon forget that dinner. The meal
itself was xcellent-iRfinitely better
than any that they had for months.
1t consisted of meats "requisitioned"
from their own herds and flocks,
grains from their own fields. wine
from their own cellars. The host, Col
onel Vogelhuber. sat at the head of
the table. all smiles and benignlty, Hell

THE "STEP LIVELY" SLOGAN

The front page editorial. Good
Morning. New Day." of Thursday
morning, was written by Mr.. Watkins,
the new secretary of the Chamber of
Commerce. 1t was his idea that in
duced citizens to take the people,
marooned here because of the strike,
on ride about the city Wednesday,
and give them a dance Wednesday
night and that induced the Rotarians
to give them a dance at the Elks club
rooms Thursday night, Also it is to
his credit that many other courtesies
and attentions have been shown the
people who were forced to spend a
number of unwilling hours within our
gates.
1t is doubtful if the city has ever
had better advertising, If We are TO
consider the matter from a purely
materialistic standpoint. But there is
far more in these expression of friend
illness on the part of the people of
Albuquerque than mere favorable ad-
vertsing It has done us more spiritual
than material good. 1t has taken us
out of a rut into which we have been
operating--if operating is the right
word-for the past year. We needed
to get out of that rut, to become alive
once more.
Mr.. watkins has taken for his
slogan for the city; Step lively ="
1t is a good slogan, and, if we observe
it, win result in rapid progress for US.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. 80, lsl
A LITTLE COMMON SENSE.

In these days of readjustment ana
hair-trigger strikes, let us talk little
common sense.
Never was there so much money In
circulation as now, and never was
there so much reckless spending. as
compared with production. We in
America seem prosperous beyond
precedent. But a stern condition
exists. The world is vastly poorer to-
day than it has been for long time
materially and Immediately poorer
than it was five years ago.
On a comparatively small fraction
of the worlds surface, but in The very
beehive of the worlds industry and
commerce, twenty million producing
persons are dead before their time OF
are permanently unproductive by the
war. The machinery with which 1t
produced is wrecked or rusted; the
zest to produce is dulled. Goods that
sustained. life are wholly lost out Of
the worlds, stock. What earthquake
and fire were to San Francisco. the
war has been to Europe.
The world has never before sus-
tanned a dead loss of any such proper
tions. 1t is impossible to say when OF
how the world will recover; but that
il is poorer than it was five years ago
is incontrovertible That It is in debt
q beyond all previous records the books
show. The war increased the debt of
Great Britain by forty billion dollars
and everything produced in the war
that was consumed by the war was
lost from the material wealth of the
world.
And yet, we call conditions un-
precedentedly prosperous
The fact is, we are prosperous on
borrowed money; and in so far as we
are squandering We are squandering
borrowed money. For five years this
country had vast prosperity following
the civil war. Then came the panic
of lS73-a terrific REIMBURSEMENT.
There is no royal road to recovery
from war. The fiddler at the war
dance always drives hard bargain.
He may take a note of hand as evil
dence of the debt. but not as payment
interest must be paid to the last
farthing,
During the war people looked for
the government to do everything. I'm
fortunately we got the habit of believ-
ing the government could do anything.
That Illusion served as long as the
war lasted. The bottom is out now.
The nations at war were not draw
ing on a vast fund of indefinite quaint
ity, a sort of miraculous widows cruise
Of oil inexhaustble undlminishable.
What they were squandering in the
terrific game was the capital of their
peoples, all the accumulated gains of
generations.
The struggle could not have gone
would have begun to feel the strain,
so prodigious was the effort and so
prodigal the expenditures. The CEN
trail powers collapsed because they
could not go farther. 1t was not eX-
haustlon of men. b. : of capital
Men eat and are clothed from year
to year. They have to work if they
have food and clothes There is no
other way. What the world must have
now is all the production work pos
sihle otherwise we shall meet
disaster.

Cured His RUPTURE

I was badly ruptured while lifting trunk
several years ago. Doctors said my only
hope Of cure was an operation. Trusses did
me no good. Finally I got hold of some
thing that quickly and completely cured
me- Years have passed and the rupture
has never returned, although l am doing
hard work as a carpenter. There was no
operation, no lost time, no trouble. have
nothing to SELL but will give full informa-
ton about how you may find complete
cure without operation. If you write to me.
Eugene NJ Pullen, Carpenter, AISLE Mar
cellus Avenue, Manasduan. N. j. Better cut
out this notice and show ii to any others
who are ruptured--you may save a life or
at least stop the misery of rupture and the
worry and danger of an operation.

AN AVERAGE.

When the average man comes home
from work
At the end of an average day.
He's worked along in the average
style,
According to average pay.
He walks along at an average pace
Till he strikes an average car
That takes him along with an average
crowd
And gives him an average jar.
He enters in by the average gate
And opens the average door.
He finds an average number of kids
Sprawled out on an average floor
And when he turns to his average
wife,
Who once was an average miss,
He's better by far than the average
man
If he captures an average kiss.

FRESH BLOOD AS A TONIC.
Roy G.. Andrews in the National Gee

graphical Magazine.
On the first days hunt at HozandC
Northern Korean wildernes), a deer
was shot. The bullet, passing through
both lungs. filled the thorax with
clotted blood. and as soon as the
animal was opened Paik, my Korean
gun bearer. plunged his face into the
half liquid mass, drinking and eating
until the last drop was gone; then
removing the steaming red liver, he
cut it into slices, swallowing them as
past as possible
/ was tremendously surprised. but
learned afterward that the Koreans
believe the blood of a deer or any
wild animal, if drunk when warm. to
be a splendid tonic. Tigers claws,
whiskers, bones. and teeth are espe-
cially valuable, and preparations made
from these materials were often given
to soldiers before a battle or any
especially hazardous enterprise, since
they were believed to inculcate great
bravery.

There is a certain Colonel Carnahan
over on the border who knows a short
cut to secure a square deal. Alleging
that certain merchants of Nogales
were overcharging for supplies and in
dealing with 1900 soldiers at barracks
near the town, he requested action by
the local Chamber of Commerce. Re-
ceiving no reply he ordered men to
keep away from the town for two
days, directed mess sergeants to make
no purchases in Nogales and sent
trucks to Tucson for supplies. Then
Nogales began to call down greedy
dealers.
