PARIS, Feb. IL. = A whole
freight car of moving picture films
has been taken into Bohemia by
the Foyer du Soldat, that arm of
the American Y. NJ. c. A. which
ministers to the French and some
other foreign armies over here.
The foyer took the rough edges
off of trench life so we'll among
the Czecho-Slovaks soldering in
France that when some Czecho-
Slovaks were designated to go on
into Bohemia to bring order out
of chaos they appealed to the ma
tional war work council to send
representatives to accompany them.
The foyer in Paris detailed the
following men: Irving d. Kim
ball of Lowell, Mass; Ernest J.
Wright of Tulsa, Okla; j. B. Nc
Creary of Pittsburgh, Pa, and a
Mr.. Burian and a Mr.. Finney were
sent from Italy to join the party.
They took with them, in addi-
ton to the car load of film, pro-
lection machines and cinema sup
plies, one car of tobacco and n
car of soap, chocolates, matches,
cotton cloth, monographs and rec
ords, books, etc.
Under the working arrangement
the foyer will not have to erect
any buildings in the field in b.
hernia. Buildings and barracks
will be provided by the Czecho-
S1ovak government.
For the present a good program
of motion pictures will be the
principal entertainment for the SOL
diers. A canteen will be operated.
A. w. Davis, chief secretary of
the foyer, is awaiting word from
his men as to the work in Be-
hemia, upon the receipt of which
he expects to dispatch another
group of men with a second
Czecho-Slovak army.

the signal corps on the theory that
if flying had any part in warfare it
probably would be that of signal
ing.
So the signal corps had to take
charge of the infant branch of the
service, 5000 miles from the sound
of a gun or the sight of a boche,
and nurse it through to it's pres
ent brawny maturity. The boys
who enlisted in the signal corps
to serve with the telegraph and tel
ephone lines and motorcycles and
spy glasses and pussy-foot scouting
in advance of the fighting front in
France were the first sent to nurse
the aviation corps through the
teething period in the back woods.

PORTLAND, Ore, Feb. IL. -
Within the span of 10 months the
spruce production division of the
U. S. army, organized out of thin
air. bought 100000 worth of
materials, stood sponsor for far
greater purchases by private con
tractors and was organized into an
army of 10000 soldiers and $780,
600 civilians who were sworn to
as binding a patriotic oath as that
taken by the soldiers themselves.
1t built wholly or in part Is lines
with more than 500 miles of rail-
road, shipped 100000 feet of
aircraft timber for the allied air
program and opened 100000 feet
of spruce for immediate railroad
shipment. 1t was just ready to
double if not treble it's production
record when the fighting stopped.
Of all the various branches of
the American army service, none
possibly but the flying sections of
the United States signal corps, had
a larger proportion of volunteers
than the spruce section. War SER
vice appealed originally to the men
who wanted to get out and do
things; to be in front to carry the
flag /; to sound the long yell; to
see the enemy first and to be the
eyes, ears, nerves of the whole
army. Rather curiously, the spruce
production fell to men who had
been among the first to volunteer
for extra hazardous service abroad.
The nation found it needed a
vast air navy. Before the war,
when airplanes were merely ex-
pensive toys in America, the avia-
ton section had been assigned to

AMERICANS HUNTING
BOARS IN GERMANY

REMAGEN, Germany, Feb. IL.
Wild boar hunting has become a
popular sport among the officers
of the American army of occupa-
ton in the hills along the Rhine
in the region of Remagen. Sever
al hunting parties have been held
and several bears were bagged by
each party.
A number of hunting preserves
are owned by wealthy Germans in
the vicinity of Remagen, and it was
within these reservations that the
hunts have taken palce by permits
sion of the owners. The ordinary
army rifle was used by the Ameri-
cans in the wild boar drives.

YOUNG BOXER PLANS
FOR THIRD COMEBACK

ST. PAUL, Feb. IL. = Johnny
Ertle of st. Paul, who flashed to
fame as a bantamweight and then
dropped to semi-oblivion with
equal speed, is making a third at
tempt to come back.
The "Kewpie" has signed a con-
tract with Mike Collins, former
manager of Fred Fulton, who will
attempt to put Ertle back in the
championship class. In this other
veteran managers had failed. Col
Inns is unwilling to believe that
Ertle, who is only 81 years old, is
through as a fighter.
Ertle has been working out this
winter and hopes to get another
chance with some of the good
boys. He is to meet Johnny
Richie at La Sale, ILL.,, Feb. 20.

ARMY SPRUCE DIVISION HAS CREDlTABLE RECORD

With axe and maui and wheelbar-
row and peavey and "tin" pans
they worked in forests, on hand
made logging railroads and in saw
mills that they built in rain storms
almost as deadly as the bullets of
the boche. That they wet-nursed
the infant to the point where IL
had a big part in winning the war
vas a tribute to their adaptability.
Labor conditions in the lumber
industry were not good in II
northwest at the beginning OF h
war. Paid German propaganda is
said to have been rampant, for h
Hun knew how vital it was to Grip
pie the American air program.
Lack of equipment forced the
spruce production branch to do
many things which, under other
conditions, would have been con-
sidered inefficient. On the Alsea
Bay railroad a cut 100 feet deep
was dug almost with hand shovels
and wheelbarrows, where a steam
shovel would have "eaten it up"
with five per cent the human labor
cost. Miles of cuts and grades
we're so built.
Nearly 800 miles of railroad
we're built, mostly without machin-
cry, for adequate machinery was
not to be had at any price. HUI
man labor alone had to solve the
tremendous problem of getting to
the spruce belts and getting out
the timber. Only in some future
time of great national stress, &C
cording to Colonel Disque and his
staff, is it likely that the railroad
building record of the division
ever will be approached.

instead of making general proffers,

cretely the individual solutions
which, in the Wilson sense, would
have put out the old fires in Eu-

would not admit of such a timely

"Why not, therefore, admit this
undeniable German confusion in

TRUTHSTRETCH|NG
BY WAR HEROES
IS EXCUSED

LONDON, Feb. II. Incidents
of men stretching the truth con-
siderably to get into the British
army when England needed every
man and then resorting vir-
tually to mutiny to get out after
the armistice was signed have been
shown at Folkstone during inves-
tigation of the first rehabilitation
demonstrations there. After sever
al hundred men had declined to
embark for France at the end of
their Christmas leave the military
authorities began investigating
each case separately.
One man who might be judged
anywhere from SO to so years of
e appeared before the examining
officers.
ION what ground do you think
YOU should be released now" he
was asked.
"Pm more than Al years of
age" he said, relying upon the
rule that men of that age or more
should be released as soon as pos
sible.
"But your army book shows you
enlisted Is months ago at the age
of 35."
81 gave that as my age to get in,
sir. 1 am so years old now"
"You will have to prove that"
came a quick reply, whereupon he
turned to a midde-aged women
spectator, his wife, who had an
ticipated the situation and produc-
ed a birth certificate. He will be
released at once and the method
by which he volunteered will be
conveniently forgotten.
During the last year of the war
no miners we're allowed to join the
army Their ranks already had
been depleted until barely enough
coal was being produced.
Another demonstration claimed he
should be released because he was
aminer. His record showed he
represented himself as a fish
monger in order to join the colors.
When he proves he is a miner he
will be released.

MUNICH, Feb. 1.-THE purely
military way of thinking which
plunged us senselessly into this
war;" say Professor F. w. Foers-
ter, Munich university professor
and now Bavarian minister in
Switzerland, had, as a consequence,
also a method of conducting the
war which was bound to end in a
German catastrophe.
with a blindness bordering on
insanity we called all the means

step, were sure to call the whole
world into arms against us, where
by it came to be evident that our
disdain of all political and moral
scruples was a sh~ortsighted calcu-
lation, even from a military stand
point.
ITO what dire need did our So
called act of necessity in invad-
ing Belgium bring us? Those mil
itary ways of thinking also bear
the principal blame for the pro-
iongation of the war. 1t is impos-
sible to conceive that we, at sever

R|CANS IN BAD
FOR ASKING LIBERTY
UNIVERSITY STUDENTS SIGN
MEMORIAL TO PRESIDENT
WILSON

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, Feb. IL.
Members of the graduating class
of the university of Porto Rico
who recently signed a petition to
the legislature asking that a me-
mortal to President Wilson be so
amended as to make a definite de-
mand for the independence of
Porto Rico are now fearful that
their action will result in refusal
to appoint them as teachers in the
public schools.
The commissioner of education,
Paul G. Miller, has sent to the
dean of the university a letter in
which the commissioner said that
his attention has been called to
the action of the students, and
added:
''Since this request is made by
persons who are American citizens
and at a time when the nation
has been exceedingly careful to
scrutinize the loyalty of all it's
citizens you are hereby directed to
furnish me with a list of any mem
bers of the graduating class of the
formal school who may desire to
enter teaching service. l shall
not appoint or approve the nomi-
nations by school boards of per-
sons concerning whose loyalty to
the United States there may be
any doubt. Please let me have
the list"

the Western league meet
in St. Joseph, Mo-, on Feb. % to
arrange the seasons schedule, they
also will select a president to sue
coed E. w. Dickerson, unless he
returns from France shortly.
With the withdrawal of John
Wunderlich of st. Joseph as a can

has narrowed down to Thomas
Fairweather of Des Moines and
John Savage, secretary of the Kan
sas City club of the American as

1t is said that Savage, who for
merly owned the Joplin franchise
in the Western league, has stated
that he does not want the presi-

Western league club, has been con-
nected with baseball for 10 years.
He has declared his willingness to

STARS AND STRIPES
FLY ON TURK SOIL

ADRIANOPLE, Feb. ~. = For
the first time since the United
States broke relations with the OF
toman government, the American
flag flies on Turkish soil. Over
the American Red Cross relief sta
ton in this little Moslem city the
Stars and Stripes are seen floating
alongside the Red Cross flag. The
bright colors have created no little
curiosity among the Turks, many
of whom have never seen the
American flag before.
The Red Cross depot was estab-
lished here ito supply food and
clothing to the great numbers of
Greek and Serbian refugees who
are returning from points in Bull
garia and Turkey.
The relief station is in charge
of Israel Marcus of Denver, Colo,
a member of the American Red
Cross mission to Greece.

however, that within a short time

ment has issued an order confis-
eating all flags measuring more
than 20x20 inches so as to use
the material in them for the manu-

A call has been issued to the
public to donate unnecessary flags
for the same purpose. 1t is pre-
sumed the colors will be extracted
from the flags before they are

CROOKED DEALS
COMMON IN GERMANY

MUNICH, Feb. IL. - The re-
turning and demobilizing armies
here, in great part, come chiefly
home, put down their arms and
disband without trouble. A small
percentage of the unruly element,
such as compose the anarchistic
group, however, has made as much
trouble as possible, and has shown
special fondness for crooked horse
deals.
The peasants council of Munich
makes public a report to show that
hundreds of returning soldiers
have been permitted to keep a
horse as a souvenir. The permits
sion naturally does not come from
the military authorities, but from
underlings, and the soldiers have
then put the animals thus secured
on the market at ridiculous prices.
One regiment that should have
had 500 horses returned with but
so, the rest having been sold, in
many cases, it is feared, for slaugh-
ter, an easy way of concealing all
traces. The city authorities re-
Gently confiscated 81 animals that
had been sold in this underhand
way for slaughter. The peasants
council has organized a guard of
40 men to help put down the evil.
