EXPLOSIVES FOR FOURTH
BARRED IN STATE ORDER

1t must be safe and sane Fourth
of July for Tennessee this year, ac-
cording to Walter Bell. Fire Proven
tion Commissioner for this State.
This is to prevent the usual heavy
toll of life caused by guns; giant
crackers and other explosives, and to
prevent the usual heavy losses of
property occasioned by these eX-
plosives, either in storage or from
fire resulting from their explosion.
The National Board of Fire Under
writer's started this movement for a
safe and sane Fourth, and seeks to
prevent the ban being lifted on eX-
plosives in the various states. The
rules governing the sale and storage
of explosives in this State will be
strictly adhered to, according to Com
missioner Bell, and he calls attention
of the public, and especially handlers
of these articles to the rules govern
ing the same.
"All over the country this move
ment is being taken up and all states
will stick to the plan followed during
the war. No pre-war policy will be
tolerated, and in this way we will pre-
vent loss of both life and property
Mr. Bell urges that the Fourth be
observed in the true American spirit,
but that the use of anything that will
endanger ether property or life be
forbidden in all sections.

Readers Of the Register have beer
told again and again Of the merits
of TINT reliable, time-proved kidney

experiences told are not those Of un'
known persons, living far away. The
cases are Richmond cases, told by
Richmond people.
H. c. Brewer, grocer, Big Hill ave.
Richmond, says: 81 have used
Doan's Pills at different times when
my kidneys have been out Of order
and I know they are good remedy
My back ached and I had soreness in
my kidneys and it hurt me to stoop
My kidneys acted irregularly, espec-
iaally if I caught cold. Doan's Kid

ieve the trouble and strengthen my

yet his remarkable feat, probably
along with many others, has not been
given to the public. Returning from
France few weeks ago, wearing
the highest medal FOR bravery that
France has to award and the highest
medal that the United States has to
reward, he took them off before he
reached New York and brought them
home in his pocket. He had been
told that the great military medal of
France and the Congressional medal
of honor would bring him much notice
and publicity. The quiet mountain
boy, who had dared every danger Of
the enemy, who had scomed fear
when duty called, nevertheless shrank
from publicity and hid his medals,
the telltale of his wonderful feat and
given it to the world in advance of
his return, as he came quietly back
to his Kentucky mountain home with
those rare medals which men usual
ly die for, tucked away inconspic-
uously in hispocket.
Will Sandlin was born January 1.
1891, near Buckhorn, in Perry coun-
ty. His father left the county and
his mother died while he was still a
boy. He and his four brothers
reached manhood as best they could,
Bill Abner, of Perry county, being re-
ported to have contributed most aid
in the upbringing of Willie Sandlin.
All the boys Joined the regular army
after they became old enough, so

several years when the United States
entered the war.

Miss Peck Spending
Her Vacation Here

Miss Grace Peck is at home for
summers rest, after her second
season as advance man" for her
chautauqua circuit in the states Of
Utah, Idaho, Oregon, California.
Arizona, New Mexico and Colorado.
To her duties as ordinary advance
man" were added last season those
of superintendent also, and she
would arrive in a town five days
ahead Of the entertainment and re-
main turnout the period Of it's show
in the town. This plan, says Miss
Peck, is much better than having two
persons, one in advance and the
other, attending to the show itself.
Her title is director of chautauqua.
She has put in twenty months at the
work and thinks there's nothing like
it in the world, nor half 80 good.
Miss Peck gathered store Of
pleasant experiences on the road. In
Arizona, at Pennington, on the
eastern edge Of the Navajo reserva-
ton, she became absorbed in study
ing the Indians and in buying their
rugs, supply of which she brought
home. Her last season began in
December, and she has not made
definite Arrangements for next fall
as yet, but is recuperating at home
from the strenuous winter.

BOND FOR
SOUVENIR

How would a soldier feel now,
without an honorable discharge?
AS months pass into years the
legends of the world war will grow
and fasten themselves in our national
life, and each mans part therein will
become ever a more cherished re-
membrance; to mention that he was
there as an innocent bystander is
not giving a man much standing with
Americans of the next period.
But the possession of q few liberty
bonds Is going to be like money in
the bank-it will give a man stand
ing and confidence. Nobody can do
his best while trying to conceal the
fact that he has not been thrifty,
when his pockets are empty and he
cannot forget 1t. For the same
psychic reason, no man can feel just
right about not having invested in
government bonds when every other
patriot strained his resources to fill
out Uncle Sans budget to proper
tons fitting unto our national pride.
The banks may take a good many
OF these bonds, sooner or later; but
just that many bonds will not be
much of q satisfaction to certain
persons, who withheld their portion
because it hurt them to put out the
cash.
Liberty bonds are the best war
souvenirs. After the wars pressing
demands upon every man, Victory
bond is his honorable discharge

DAILY BOND BUYING TO
SET SPEED OF VICTORY SHIP

The U. S. s. Marblehead, one of
the three destroyers, that will make
Victory loan voyage from San
Francisco to New York, sailed out
of the Golden Gate Monday. The
distance is $3.50 miles. For each
lump of $S57,142 subscribed the
Victory ship will travel one mile.
1t Will take a daily subscription of
$225,o0O,OOO to keep her up to speed
that is to 262k miles per day.
when the voyage is completed, the
United States treasury will be en-
riched by the addition Of $4,5O0,-
100000, and so the message the de-
stroyer will bring to New York will
have to be worked out during the
trip, and she cannot pull in unless
able to announce that piece of news.

again. He finds himself not at all
impaired as a cog in the economic
machine, but improved rather. He
is being received in working circles
of life as never soldier was before,
social circles too. o
And yet, the army is a better
place than it ever was. There is new
blood in the officer class; the pay is
better; the soldier is regarded more
highly than ever since our civil war.
The rate of re-enlistment will show
just what affection the army has
made for itself in the hearts of men
called into service and
not bound to the military life by the
old-time ties.-F. G. X.

"Shave-tails" and bucks will be-
come as brothers, working for the
glory of Old Glory, from east to west,
and from north to south.
Bingham county is a bit behind
time, but meeting of service men
will be called this week or next. No
hesitancy is looked for on the part
of any man to come into this organ
ization, with it's maintenance of the
good old friendly ties of barrack
room and battle field, and it's ad-
vantages for making felt the united
opinion of the bulk of the men whose
responsibility it is to support the
nation with force whenever our flag
Is endangered.-F. C. X.

ENLLSTING IN
THE ARMY

An interesting experiment is now
being tried out. Enlistments in the
army are open; $4,000 places to be
filed as soon as possible. Next Fri
day the recruiting officer will be in
Blackfoot.
1t is an experiment because we are
just disbanding an army Of about
three millions OF men, most of whom
were recruited on the wholesale draft
plan. 1t is interesting because the
new kind of army that is going out
OF existence was different army
from any other this nation ever had.
In the old days Of the regular army
1t was we'll known custom for dis
charged men to re-enlist. After
three years in peace army, sep
arated from the 60 and hum Of
everyday business life, a man would
feel like q stray piece of driftwood
outside the army. He could stand a
week, or maybe two, and then he in
variably went back in; and when his
friends kidded him about all the
decided things he had said about
mo more army life for him." he
would just grin, and wait for the
other fellow to do the same thing.
This attachment for army life
worked up an esprit de corps the
regular army man became a known
type.
When, two years ago, the army ex-
banded from few thousands to a
few millions, the regular army d.
luted past all recognition, and even
the national guard units lost their
identity thru losing large drafts of
their personnel at intervals, and be-
ing refilled with men from other
states. ,,
The regular army man has passed.
He has gone up to sergeancy or a
commission, and the ranks have been
filled with the new order Of soldier.
Will this latter turn around and 60
back in again? He has said many,
many times that he would not, no
never. He went into the army for an
emergency. Once out he is energetic
ally getting himself into business
