Casey" And if we remember rightly,
and we do, they did keep coming.
When chap was broke" or maybe
had pay voucher in his pocket which
WASH bank within fifty kilometers
lit was the men of the TX. of c."
who furnished the little things
which we know to be the big things,
when one is out of touch with civili-
cation. One could generally find a
K. of G. hut somewhere near the
front, and if not-why generally
some one wearing their insignia
found us. We well remember those
long winter days when we were
stuck in demolished French village
on the other side of the Argonne,
when it seemed that spring would
never come and the drizzle would
never cease. Tire wasn't even a
Bible to read--some unregenerate
scamp months before had used the
tissue pages of our volume for
cigarette paper. But came a day
when X. of G. man discovered we
were seemingly "the world
forgetting, by the world forgot"
And once each week after that he
drove thirty-five kilometers out Of
his way TO drop the papers and
other things. (You know what we
mean by the other things" Ex-
peet you have a package of them in
your pocket now.) Got so we could
hear the coughing of his broken.
backed Ford at least three villages
away. And sometimes an escort OF
honor waded five or six kilometers
through the mud to welcome him.
Gen. Pershing has complimented
them highly We are glad of that.
We rather think they deserve a few
words. We like those chaps of the
X. of G. They have done much to
make us feel at home everywhere
we have been over here. And they
have never crowded religion down
our throats-though religious con-
ISOLATION was theirs for the asking
But they have handed out big fist
fuls of friendship-and after ALL
that is what counts.
There's a line in the Bible which
we like to apply to an organization
when we Try to judge of the good 1t
is doing, by their works we shall
know them" We know the knights
of Columbus. And we who write
these lines are not Catholic either
but Protestant by faith, and shout

WELCOME VISITORS.

Capt. Michael Quinn, of Brook
lyn, returning from the meeting of
the Executive Council OF the Catho-
lie knights of America at st. Louis,
stopped over here for a weekend
visit as the guest of Supreme Dele
gate Eugene Mccarthy and Col.
Joseph p. McGinn. Capt. Quinn is
Supreme Trustee of the Catholic
knights, and says the order has ad-
vanced and now stands stronger
than ever before. During his short
visit he met many friends and at
tended the orphan picnic.

Archbishop Hayes Expresses Himself
Most Deeply Interested in
Ireland.
Letter to Father Duffy, Chaplain of
the Fighting Sixty-Ninth
Regiment.
Irish Sword Has Borne a Noble Part
In Defense of the
Weak.
POTENT IN HELPING FREEDOM.

Archbishop Patrick ]. Hayes had
been invited TO speak on the Irish
question at a meeting of the New
York Chapter of the Rainbow Divi-
sion Veterans at the Sixty-ninth
Armory Monday evening, June 80.
The annual retreat for the clergy
made the appearance of the prelate
impossible. AS his letter of regret
dealt with the question he had been
invited to discuss, it was made
public by Father Duffy, chaplain of
the Sixty-ninth Regiment. to whom
1t had been addressed:
My Dear Father Duffy:
regret that my attendance at the
annual retreat for the clergy will
prevent my accepting the invitation
extended through you to address the
New York Chapter of the Rainbow
Division Veterans at the Sixty-ninth
Regiment Armory on Monday even
ing, but / shall be happy to be
present at some later date which l
shall arrange with you. The re-
Spouse to the call of duty and the
gallant achievements in battle of the
Twenty-seventh Division, the Seven
ty-seventh Division. your own
historic regiment, and other units
from this city and State have been
source of patriotic pride to me
during the past two years.
AS Chaplain Bishop know by my
own personal observations, by my
relations with our hierarchy, by
countless reports from our chaplains
at home and abroad, how generous
and unanimous was the response Of
our Catholic people to the call Of
our President and Congress to take
up arms or to make other sacrifices
to win this war. Our own city OF
New York, with its large Catholic

are on record of giving Morrow
and the party "knife for knife" in
November, and this threat Is backed
up by Warley's big following of
colored preachers, teachers and
leaders Of the race, who say that
theyNhave grown tired of furnishing
power and from now on the party
must share the honors. Poor old
Ches Searcy, the Republican State
Campaign Chairman, is fighting with
his back to the wall, and the old
line Republicans who have been cast
aside since Hert took charge of the
party are chuckling all over them
selves at Searcy and Hert's troubles.
The other State races are livening
up and some surprises are in store
for the political dopesters. w. H.
Shanks, for Lieutenant Governor,
has been coming like a whirlwind,
and seems to have won the support
of both the Carroll and Black adj
herents, leaders in both camps say
ing he is the logical man to streng-
then the Democratic ticket. Mat
Cohen has made every post win
ming one, rs the ;form sheet would
say, and has clinched the nominal
ton for Secretary of State. Here in
Louisville Mr.. Cohen's strength can
be attributed to Capt. Mike Nc
Auliffe, who is popular with all
classes of Democrats and in his
long years Of police service obtained
a wide following of friends who
have adopted the slogan: A vote
for Cohen is vote for Capt. Nike"
and our next Secretary of State is
to be congratulated on his aide in
this district. Attorney Will Mentally
has taken UP the guage of battle for
Ryland G. Musick, candidate for At
torney General, and is busy forming
a local organization for the Jack
son county man.

plains of the great West that we

we saw their familiar sign in rest

Often the lack of water is response
bic for the hens not laying.
Keep "a supply Of grit, oyster shell
and charcoal before the fowls.
Lice and mites arc the two most
troublesome poultry parasites.
The more hens eat the more ma
terial they have 70 turn into eggs.
Give the hen a home, comfortable.
but not hot; light, dry, well ventilated.
but free from drafts; clean and free
from lice, mites, etc.
From years Of experience in the
poultry business it has been discov-
cred that it is unsafe to venture be-
yOnd the number of hens one can care
for himself.
One of the most important factors
in keeping the young chicks growing
is good, clean, fresh water in clean
vessels.
The poultry house may be nearer
the house than the other buildings, but
should be SO placed, if possible, that
the chickens will not Overrun the yard.
DuckiingS almost wash down their
feed with water if they have tie op-
portunity, and unless they have pleat,
to drink their rapid method of ea.in.
is likely to be dangerous.
