Division, fresh home from France,
tide Of sunburned fighting manhood. In
their khaki and olive drab uniforms,
the men swung by as resitlessly as
the spring floods of the Mississippi
Above each solid block of infantry,
rose the grim line of bayonets, the
blued steel glinting duly as it caught
the light. Farther back came the long
lines of field guns, French "75's", and
after all the trains and wagons had
rumbled by, came a battalion of tanks,
growing and clanking their way be-
hind the troops.
Guns of All Types.
There was nothing lacking to make
the parade an epitome of the whole
vast army which American skill and
indomitable will had created to meet
and beat the enemy at his own game.
There were guns Of all the types used
in France that could be moved through
the streets. The show was as COM
Ilete as the ingenuity of the War De-
partment could make it a cross sec
ton OF the American EXpeditionary
Forces.
brown faced men themselves that first
interest Of the thrOnging crowds all
along the wide avenue turned. The
Homecoming of this first unit of Amer
lean man power to cross the subma-
rine infested seas was in marked con.
trast to its silent, mysterious, unre-
ported departure, and the men and
women along the way seemed to feel
the significance of-the spectacle. They
recalled the days when the nation
waited in wordless anxiety to hear that
these same smiling free-striding boys
had come safely to a French harbOr,
those other days when the first word
filtered back that the boys had begun

Sixth Field First to Fire
To one regiment of long. trim "75's s.
an unusual honor was accorded The
Sixth Field Artillery was placed be
tween the two infantry brigades. for
it was battery of the Sixth which
fired the first shot at the Germans
on Oct. %. 1917. A standard told the
onlookers that they saw the very guns
whose thunder had carried that first
message of defeat into the enemy
ranks.
Up the avenue at the head of the
division rode Major General Edward
F. McGlachlin, commanding, and with
him rode two former commanders of
the divisio nthe first to go and the
last of the divisions to come home.
They were Major General William l..
Sibert, who took it to France, and
Lieutenant General Robert L. Billiard,
who took it into. action and surrender
ed command only to take a hisher
post. Marching ahead of the forma-
tons, also. came host of officers and
men who saw their first service with
the First division in France, later to
go to other units.
First Infantry
Then came the First Infantry brig
ade, marching in the French mass
formation, twenty-four men abreast
across the avenue, led by the Bird Ma

He was high school pupil, and was
imbibing many bits of philosophy. At
home he watched the women folk and
the ways they devised for doing as they
pleased and for getting every other
person to do as they wished them
to do. And from these he drew con.
clusions which he later voiced.
"Times have changed since my his,

one night. "Then the tyrants were
the men who used to stamp around

there is no trace in the worlds history
of any other people having lived In

We meet with both encourage

the people. The examples of true
conversion stand out prominently
because of the contrast between
these saved persons and those who

ionary family in the midst of a

POOR WAY TO woo SLEEP
Man Who Experimental Pronounces
Insomnia "cure" to Be at Least
Of Doubtful Value.

A new cure for insomnia, we read, Is
to 'list the first names of all your
friends and acquaintances, taking each
letter Of the alphabet in order"
OF course this is only variant of
the old device of counting imaginary
sheep Jumping over wall. Personally
we never found that to work at all.
We counted between 1000 and 1900
Of these alleged soporific sheep one
night. and then the alarm clock went
off and 1t was time to get up, which
we did with groan. a headache and
pair Of astigmatic eyes.
Making an alphabetical catalogue of
your friends first names is an even
more stimulating and nerve-exciting
process. We would be willing to wager
that no normal persons could get fur
ther than the Ms before being inter
rupted by the first call for breakfast.
1t is doubtful. at least, If the night con-
tains enough time to go through with
the whole list from Alfred to Gorilla.
We should say that this might be the
surest way to Danish sleep altogether.
The best way to WOO slumber, we
have been told, is to go into the 81
lence, relax all muscles and nerves, and
then in mental way, pull all the edges
of the mind into dead mental center
and fold them in. 1t Is hard to say
just how this is done, but 1t sounds
plausible. Frequently, of course, there
are some difficulties merely in going
into silence. Somewhere on the prem
ises. perhaps In an adjacent apartment.
there may be someone who has gone
to sleep without going into the silence.
This interferes materially with the
working Of all anti-insOmnia devices.
If there is no neighboring obstacle of
this sort 1t is much easier matter.
And yet, even after the silence is ar
ranged. the mind is apt to go on pro-
viding its own disturbance. Arithmet-
ical and alphabetical diversions only
accentuate the tumult. The only thing
to do is to regard the very center of
the mind as hypothetical hole. or vac
uum, contract the mind until it is all
pulled into this hole, and then pull the
hole In after it. And there you are.
OF course If there is n certain degree
of reality in this imagined condition,
one does not have to exercise the n.y.
pOthesis, and that makes it so much
easier.-F. H. Young in Providence
Journal

stayIno Away From Church.

The habit Of absenting ones self
from the Sunday services Of the church
Is one that some seem to acquire very
easily. II is a habit to be Stunned.
Sometimes It is occasioned by sick
ness; often some small excuse. some
grudge against a member. some re-
sentiment at fellow members fault.
