HOW WILL YOU MEET THEM?

The American army has wonder
army. 1t was really an army of boys.
They did not wait for trouble. They
came of the boats with their Shout
,ders back and wanted to be shown the
Germans. They wondered why the
whole thing was taking so long. When
at last they got chance to go into the
line they went bravely and fiercsfy.
They died with their faces to the front.
They did their share. their full share,
tt bring the war to an early ending.
These boys, with their high ideals,
with their keen sense of right and
wrong, with their Impotence and in
tolerance of all shirks, are going to be
home soon. How are you going to
meet them? Are you going to be able
to look them in the eye? Is your con.
science clear? Have you done your
duty as they did theirs?
Do your duty. Prove your Amari.
canism now. then meet them on the
plane of fellowship as comrades.

BETTER MILK FOR LONDON
Society Appeals Cor Funds to Carry on
Campaign for Legal Betterment
of City's Supply.

LondOn-Contrastin the milk sup
ply of London with the cleaner and
more healthful milk compelled by law
in New York city. the National Clean
MIX society is appealing for funds to
carry on campaign for legal milk
betterment here
The appeal says that while all New
York dairy herds must be free from
tubercular cattle, between and 9 per
cent Of the milk supplied in London
county contains Giving tubercle."
While Grade A milk in New York must
not contain more than 10000 bacteria
per cubic centimeter at any time be-
fore reaching the consumer, the nv.
erage London sample contains not
less than 100000 bacteria per cubic
centimeter."
The society says American milk il
bottled before it is shipped, and re-
marks that "the conduct of the dairy
has become science which is prac-
tically unknown in this country to
the trade, the public or any but an
extremely small number of public
health officials"

AWARDED SIX CENTS DAMAGES
Father, Absent at lnterment, Sued
Undertaken for Not Waiting
for Him.

New York.-Six cents damages was
awarded James Hewitt of Bayonne in
consideration of mental injuries re-
ceived at the hands of John H. Ed
ridge an undertaken Of Woodhaven, L.
l., by jury in the Queens county
court, which tried an action by Hewitt
to recover $1,000 from the under.
taker.
Hewitt alleges that his feelings were
injured and he was occasioned much
grief and distress because, through
the undertaker's fault, he was not per-
mitted to witness the interment of his
fifteen-year-old daughter, who died in
the Jamaica hospital last November.
Eldridge was engaged to take the body
to New Jersey cemetery and to su-
perintend the interment.
Testimony showed that Hewitt ar
rived at the cemetery after the hour
set for the burial. He declared he
was delayed by tieup on a trolley
line, and that Eldridge should have
spared his feelings by postponing the
ceremony until his arrival.

U. S. FLYERS HIT TEN "SUBS"
Two Undersea Craft Sunk, Dam
aged by Them, Capt. Thomas c.
Craven Says.

Boston - French records credit
United States naval flyers with having
damaged and possibly destroyed
twelve German submarines, according
to Capt. Thomas G. Craven, U. s. N,
commander of all the United States
naval aviation forces in France, who
returned on the U. 8. S. Agamemnon
His department, he said, took more
conservative view and conceded the
sinking Of two and the damaging OF
eight of the enemy craft.
Captain Craven described the rapid
growth of the United States naval all
forces in France from nine small sea,
planes to great fleet operating from
a port near Brest with more than 2O(
battle seaplanes of the best type. He
believed the patrol work of this fee
was an important factor in the cur
tailment of enemy submarine successes
near the French coast.

That's too much,y says some other
magnate. II think IL per cent would

So they agree Oh IL per cent. Then
they take pad of paper and a pencil
and figure out just what they'll charge
for various commodities. This sched-
ule is put into shape, and they all
sign an agreement not to charge more
than it says they'll charge-and there
you are!
One of the best things about this
new and novel method of price fixing
is that labor is perfectly protected.
The Industrial board looks after that.
1t will permit no cut in prices that
will give the employers a chance to
cut wages. So long as the cost of
living remains high, wages must re-
main high, the board holds, so that
the living standard shall not be low

pleasant duty, and he was glad that
it was over, but he did not regret his
action.
He did not mention the subject again
to Meriem, and in this he made mis-
take, for the young girl, while realiz-
ing the debt of gratitude she owed
Bwana and My Dear, was both proud
and sensitive, so that Bwana's action
in sending Baynes away and giving her
no opportunity to explain or defend
him hurt and mortified her. Also it did
much toward making a martyr OF
Baynes in her eyes and arousing in heI
breast keen feeling of loyalty toward
him.

GATHERING UP 'DUDS"
Italy Finds Many Million Projecti'es
Which Failed to "Do Their Duty
Work Still Goes On.

Rome - General Rudoglio, under
chief of the general staff, has pre-
scented the minister for reconstruction
of the invaded territories, Sig. Fra
deletto, his report on the recovery or
unexploded projectiles and bombs in
the zone of war, and in the localities
where the principal battles occurred.
From the beginning Of the war to
October II. 1918, 100000 did not ex-
plode. Up to November l, 1917, there
were collected about 100000 unex-
ploded bombs. From 1917 to the end
of hostilities, about 100000 unexplod-
ed projectiles were found.
The raking Of the ground to find
them goes on actively; but it will be
a long time before the work generally
has been completed.

Gambling Common
on Berlin Streets

Notwithstanding has so in
creased here since the armistice
that the widest opportunity and
license are not sufficient to sat-
isfy the passion of the residents
of Berlin, who have taken to
playing games of chance, even
roulette, in the open streets in
certain sections. Certain streets
are lined with tables, edge to
edge. The bets have been in
creasing gradually. In size until
men and women, apparently of
the poorer classes and often
"workless" and drawing govern
ment support, wager 25 marks at
a time.
The scene is enlivened fire.
Quently by 'bettors who, after
losing, snatch money from the
table and dash through the
crowd, to the walls Of the cheat
ed gamester.
Bad as is the gambling in the
open streets, that in the "clubs"
is declared to be far worse.
Street gambling is not always
with cash, stolen valuables of va
rious kinds often being put up
as stakes.

CHAPTER XIII.
Morrison and Hanson.

As Hanson and Morrison rode toward
the formers camp the Englishman
maintained a morOse silence. The
other was attempting to formulate an
opening that would lead naturally to
the proposition he had in mind. He
rode a neck behind his companion,
grinning as he noted the sullen scowl
upon the others patrician face.
Rather rough on you, wasn't he?"
he ventured at last, jerking his head
back in the direction Of the bungalow
as Baynes turned his eyes upon him at
the remark.

ued Hanson, land don't want nobody
to marry her and take her away. But
it looks to me as though he was dom
her more harm than good in sendin'
you away. She ought to marry some
time, and she couldn't do better than
fine young gentleman like you"
Baynes, who had at first felt inclined
to take offense at the mention Of his
private affairs by this common fellow,
was notified by Hanson's final remark
and Immediately commenced to see In
him a man Of discrimination.
Hes darned bounder," grumbled
the Hon. Morrison, "but I'll get even

in central Africa, but I'm as big as he
is in London, and he'll find it out when
he comes home"

Surugue. eighty years old, was
