Keeping Fit.

An intensive campaign will be
conducted in tho near future to
reach at least fifty per cent of the
92,600 boys in Mississippi between
the ages of fifteen and twenty years,
Ia ,06l of which are in high school,
1852 employed and 1881 rural
boys.
To these boys will be carried a
message from the Government
known as the Keeping Fit mes
sage. 1t is Intended to inspire the
boy with the desire not only TO keep
fit to fight in ranks as soldier, i
the Government should call on him,
but to keep fit to play his part ii
the great industrial game of life
To this end, the message lays spec
ial emphasis on muscular strength
endurance, energy. viii power, cour
age and self control.
There will be a conference of the
heads of these organizations known
to be in touch with boy life at the
Board of Trade on the morning oi
December 11th. At this conference
ways and means of putting on this
lecture will be discussed.
1t is hoped that every contact
with boy life may be harnessed and
that as many of our boys will be
reached with the message as is pos.
sible this year.
1t is the desire of the Board O
Health. who is cooperating with
the Government, that the people o
the state shall appreciate this Won
derful crmpaign, and give every as
sistance possible to make it felt al
a personal appeal to every boy il

HUN NOTES PAPER
GUERRILLA WAR
SO Characterized by Paris
Press-Agree Germans
Will Sign Eventually.
HARDEN DEFENDS TERMS

PARIS, May 1.-THE first passage
at arms" as the French editorial
writer's term the exchange of notes
between Germany and the allies,
evoked scathing comment in the sun
day Paris newspapers as the begin
ming of what Saint Brice in lie Jour
nal calls a paper guerrilla war by
the Germans against the allies terms.
The editorial writers, however. agree
in the opinion that the Germans, after
protesting in all the keys of the scale,
will sign eventually, although. says
the Figaro, they will sign only under
compulsion and with the dstermlna
ton of evading their engagements at
the first opportunity.
Against this the newspaper declares
the only safeguard is an ever-closer
Anglo o-F'rench-American alliance.
See League as Weak Spot.

strain in the Echo de Paris, but Pre-

second paragraph of the first article

reply to the German delegates COM
plaint that Germany had not been in
vited to join the league of nations,
moves Saint Brice to remark that the
Germans soon found the weak spot.
The Gaulois, in an editorial along
similar lines, questions the wisdom of
the conference in having incorporated
the league covenant in the peace
treaty.
