FRENCH TO ASSIST
!. S. GRAVE VISITORS
(By United Press.)


PARIS, (By MaiD Arrangements
are being rapidly perfected in Paris
for assisting Americans who will
come to France this year to visit the
graves of their soldier dead in the bat
tlefield cemeteries. For six months,
the American Red Cross has been con-
Quoting central information bureau
here where are handled and inquiries
from war grave visitors, and these are
assisted in arranging their itineraries
to the cemeteries in the devastated re.
gion.
The success of the information bu-
reau has been such that the French
government proposes to supplement it
by the establishment of a central Of
flee which will provide hotel rooms
and railway tickets. The central of.
flee will have branch in every rail-
way station, and Notwithstanding
clerks will be on duty to inform stran-
gers arriving in the city as to where
they can find the rooms and accommo-
dations they require.
Several schemes are on foot In Par
is for the erection of large new no.
tells. and at least one of these will be
operated on American plans, with an
American staff. A British syndicate
is also arranging to erect an all-Brit-
ish hotel of 1000 rooms, the largest
hotel in France.

WITH A LITTLE PROOF READING,

Nate Kendall In a speech the other
day referred to our present national
weakness as a people thus 1--WE have
lost entirely our old family virtue of
economiztng," said Mr.. Kendall. 1--WE
nave lost the virtue Of frugallty. We
have become nation that talks more
than it works and spends more than
1t earns"
Granted that It looks that way MIR.
Kendall should strike out entirely.
There stiil remain thrift and frugal
ity among us.
PEOPLE are spending more because
they are getting more. They are Nv
ing better because they can. Il has
oeen so ever since the world began.
AS men get more they spend mere
ana want more However, there vet
remain very large and respectable
number of people who are saving
money, buying homes. careful OF ex-
penditures and looking forward to
the protection against utter poverty
IN old age. The fact Is that many
new homes are being built and many
MONIES bought on partial payments
and that is the essence of thrift.
But Mr.. Kendall is right il he Win
eide that word entirely"

IT'S ALCOHOLIC CONTENT

Makers and dealers in sweet cider
have been withheld permits in New
York because they would not certify
to the permanent alcoholic content
of their product. The case IS TO be
argued before the courts.
Those who have had experience
with cider will smile over the posi-
bility OF guaranteeing the 'perman
ent alcoholic content" of that seduc-
tive beverage. Nothing. not even the
mind OF beauty, is more susceptible
of change than the alcoholic content
of cider. Mild and sweet and smooth
to the palate today cider next week
may and usually does develop
tang" to the tongue and arouse
much enthusiasm among It's devotees.
When cider waxeth itself Alright
within the barrel or key it does not
require any serious period Of fermen-
tation to change It's alcoholic content
from the innocuous to the sublime
Just few days with the hung out
and it changes from a disturber Of
the digestion to the breaking of the
peace. Its alcoholic content trans
ferred to the human system leads the
victim to give three rousing cheers
hyy 01~
The fathers knew well this pecul-
liarity of apple juice and some Of
them took advantage of it. Thus
those elder experimenters with alco-
holic content brought home couple
OF barrels from the mill and put
them under the trees by the kitchen
door leaving the bung out. AS the
days went by foam and pomace
dubbed from the bunghole. They
tested the alcoholic content day by
day In that elder method that took
no heed Of specific GRANTEES but de-
pended upon the palate. And when
the content pleased they put few
pounds Of raisins in thru the bung
hole and drove the oung In tight and
put the barrels down cellar for fu-
ture reference.
Along about January they drew 1t
out in pitcherfuls and transferred
to alcoholic content to their clay
and the perishing bodies of their
companions in iniquity. A eucher
game with hard cider had many OF
the characteristics OF q modern game
of poker with waterfill and Fraser
on the side. There were wounds
without cause and babblinss and all
that among those who tarried long
with the transformed alcoholic con-
tent Of the cider that ran sweet and
innocent Of wrong from the spout Of
the cider press in the previous Sep
TENDER.
They can't guarantee it. It's
treacherous stun.

WATERLOO'S SUGAR WAR.


There has been a merry war on
sugar prices ut Waterloo the past
week. A local retailer made cut
price on sugar by the hundred pounds
and when he applied to the Waterloo
wholesale houses for sugar. it is said
they turned him down with the infor-
nation that they We're not going to
furnish him with sugar that he
might demoraiize the high prices be-
Ing charged by local merchants Mr..
Dealer thereupon got his sugar else
whore and sold it in 100-pound sacks
as low as $2025 VI not lower, And
1t is safe to say he did not lose any
money at that. II has been claimed
that the wholesalers and jobbers
have been proflteering in sugar for
months Mt the expense OF the con-
sumner, and the above facts would go
to prove the assertion.

POLITICS AND UNION LABOR
Monticello Express1


Sometimes politicians get unduly
frightened at the threats OF the lead
ers OF organized labor. This is us
ually the case In localized contests.
A few recent contests. however. have
shown the ineffectiveness of the
threat and buster Of Samuel Com
pers. the head OF federated labor,
when applied to agricultural terri
tory. In Texas, James w. Bailey won
the democratic nomination for gov
ernor on the main issue OF an open
shop. In the same state Representa-
tive Blanton, who stood at the head
of the decorations black list, won
an easy denomination. In Kansas
Governor Henry J. Allen defied the
assaults Of Samuel Gompers who
condemned the governors industrial
court. The opposition to Allen made a
poor showing. The country precincts
still believe in allowing man to
work for whom he pleases, without
the dictation OF walking delegate.
