 visited Sweet Home last week, but left before the fair got fairly under way
 visited the Confederate Soldiers Home while there. Dr. Mason insist ed that I visit couple of my old ac- quaintances from Pea Ridge, MT and Mrs. Seveat Patterson, and took me I'D to their room. The first thing they said after mutual greeting was, eve were just looking over some old cop ies of the Pea Ridge Pod" They were three or four years old. but that did not matter, for though the paper they were printed on gets old their contents were so written that they are always fresh, and it's old sub scribers would read them and save them to read again and again.
 Dr. Mason invited me to look at the sweet potatoes raised on the farm, put when I got through visiting l could not find him. They have some fine hogs there, some of which would take first premium at an Arkansas state fair.
 I took an exhibit of stones to the fair, but could not get one of the pretty girls there to take charge of my divining stone and tell fortunes l remarked to one that it looked like it would be easier for me to get a wife there than to get one to take charge of my exhibit for me. She said she thought so, too, and that's the narrowest escape I have had i'll a long time. Finally Mrs M E. Dixon took charge of the Pulaskian exhibit, but declined assuming the respons!. bility of the divining stone.
 The Sweet Home people are the only people who would take the risk Of inviting the Pod man to attend their fair, as they were the only ones who knew that I bring appropriate weather with me ten invited, espe cially for that pui Ose The invita- tion was written b! leo. P. Pye, so I went to his home first and visited with him while there. That gave me an opportunity to see how much he had to do with the fair, but for the work he did 1t would have been a failure. As it was, it was a big sue cess, even the weather, though cool, was practically rainless.

REAR ADMIRAL SIMS CLAIMS
CONVOY SYSTEM Baked
ACTIVITIES OF SUBMARINES

New York, April 9.-Rear Admiral
William A. Sims, commander-in-chief
of the American naval forces in Euro
pean waters, on his arrival aboard the
liner Mauritania, declared the convoy
system, which many naval men termed
impracticable, overcame the German
submarine menace and figured ire
mendously in winning the war.
Depth charges and listening devices,
he said, contributed to success in
maintaining practically unbroken the
transatlantic bridge" of transports
and supply ships essential to the AL
lied victory, as did the magnificent
work" of the merchant seamen, who
"took their cargoes across, convoy or
no convoy" ...~
But it was the conveying scheme
worked out to fine detail by the COM
bined fleets of the associated powers,
the officer asserted, which made pos
sibLe the transportation and supplying
of the great American force whose.
appearance in battle with the Allies
turned the tide against the German
invaders on the Western front.
Germany was winning the war, the
rear admiral stated, when he arrived
in England the day after the United
States became belligerent. Teuton
interference with Allied shipping, he
added, was a serious problem, solved
only when conferences of the British,
American and Allied commands
worked out and put into practice the
system of protecting vital ships which
prevailed until the cessation OF hostll-
tiles.
A fleet of airplanes heralded the ap-
proach of the transport, bearing the
admiral, his staff and 5000 troops, and
escorted by fiotilla of destroyers and
smaller naval craft. In din OF sa-
lutes from the harbor forts, whistles
from welcoming vessels and cheers OF
the officers soldier shipmates, the big
vessel came to anchor.
From the Battery to his hotel the
admiral passed through cheering
crowds. Admiral Sims termed his re-
ception wonderful"
The admiral declared the relations
between his forces and the British had
been ideal.
Rear Admiral Sims accompanied by
one aide proceeded mcognito into
England under Navy department or
ders issued him two weeks before the
United States entered the war. -

MENT IN PAYING ITS OBLI-
CATIONS, HE SAYS.
CRlTICISES DELAY OF PEACE
PRAISES FOREIGN-BORN YANKS
AND SEVERELY ASSAILS ALL
BOLSHEVIK PRINCIPLES.

Senator Knute Nelson, speaking at
a Victory Loan meeting at Alexandria
Saturday evening said: "Our boys
had not been over there six months be-
fore the war was over and it is now
taking the peace commission six
months to make a treaty.
81 fear we shall have to keep some
of our men over there, not to watch
the Germans but the peace commits
sioners," he added.
Senator Nelson spoke of his partici-
patton in the senate investigation of
the bolsheviki, who, he said, propose
to make no man an owner of land, but
every peasant tenant.
The senator was heartily welcomed
at the meeting his coming being a
surprise at it was not known that he
was in Alexandria.
He spoke of the difficulties encoun-
tered by the nation in preparing for
war.
We didn't get much of an army
there before May and June 1918" he
said, "but within six months there
after the war was over. We turned the
tide when the Marines and Regulars
stopped the Germans at Chateau
Thierry. We put them on the run and
the Germans were continually on the
retreat from that hour to the close"
So
at has been great school for the
American people," said the senator.
"We discovered we had some few ele-
ments in our country that were not
right, and the war cured most of them,
You must admit our boys of foreign
parentage fought as well as those
whose ancestors came over in the
Mayfower. We are today a more
homogeneous people. Our boys We're
not over there more than six months
before the war was over, and it is now

the peace commissioners"
Senator Nelson urged that the pub
lie receive the homecoming boys in a
generous spirit and do their utmost in
the support of the government in
meeting it's obligations.
"Our country" he said, "is but one
big family. You and I owe a duty to
it in supporting the country in times
of peace as we'll as in times of war.
Wars are expensive and all govern
ments must issue bonds. 1t is only
fair that a portion of these burdens
be shared by the generations which
are to enjoy what we have accomplish
ed. Our expenses for the fiscal year
twelve and thirteen billion dollars and
the government proposes to raise
about one-half by taxes and the other
half by bond or note issue. The fact
that we were unprepared made the
war expensive.
"The granting of the $50 bonus to
discharged soldiers costs US about
$500, 100000. We have contracts which
we entered into to settle. But how
fortunate we are in America when we
compare ourselves to the peoples Of
other lands and particularly to those
of Russia" -r..

at was shown" said the senator,
"that the bolsheviki proposed to con-
fiscate every foot of land in Russia
and make it the property of the state.
They allow peasants to become not
owners, but only tenants, giving to
each only the use of as much land as
he can work with his own hands and
without any help.
He can never become the owner:
he has only the right to use the land
and that may be taken from him at
any time. They have two classes only,
the. proletiat and the capitalists. Only
those who work with their hands are
proletariats.
"They propose to take over all fac
tories and place them in the hands of
the workingman. Some of the soviets
