| November 2, Governor Denney was
one Of small number of officers who
were selected to sail the following
Gay. Sunday morning. The ship did
not sail that Sunday morning, and
Governor Denney was ordered to re-
port again Monday morning, to be
prepared to sail. On Monday, Nc
vember 4, after Governor Denpey had
been assigned to his room aboard ship
and had opened part of his equipment
prepared for the trip overseas, an
order was passed over the ship that
the sailing orders had been cancelled
and Governor Denney was one of
many officers who were told to leave
the ship ten minutes before it's sail
ing time. That ship was the U. S. S.
Siboney. To show that know where
Of l speak, it might be said that I
was one of the officers who were on
the Siboney prepared to sail, and that
| occupied part of the room in which
Governor Denney was to make the
overseas trip.
This was not the only boat on which
Governor Denney received sailing Or
, ders. He was on another boat for
nearly forty hours and the vessel
never left the dock. This patriotic
and courageous soldier who did not
hesitate foc service went to bed in his
little room that night expecting to
awake at sea the next morning.
1t was not Governor Denney's fault
that the armistice was signed on No
vember IL, only a few days later.
Had the armistice not been signed az
that time, but few weeks, there
would never have been the opportsun-
lty for cowardly and malicious skulk
eEs to oehrtle the Governor by say
ing that he did not see service IN
France. A couple of million others in
this country did not see foreign SER
vice. 1t Was no fault of theirs. Thew
were in the service and were subiecs
to orders. 1t was not theirs to reason
why 1t was theirs but to do as Or
dered.
Why not give the Governor due

Congress did not, until after the
camps had been in progress some
weeks, make such provision and there
was considerable discussion among
the men in the camps as to whether
they would be paid for their service
in the camps.
Some of the statements that have
been banded about would lead people
to think that every one who attended
training camp received commits
sion. The records of the various
camps, however, speak for themselves
Out of about $500 candidates at Fort
Myer there were about 600 who re-
ceived commissions.
These statements are intended to
make it appear that it was an easy
matter to secure commission in the
Quartermaster Corps. The men who
were selected for the Quartermaster
Corps were the men who were quail
fled for any branch of the service and
the record of the American Army
shows that the Quartermaster Corps
did its full share to win the World
War and did it WELL The Quarter
master Corps was one branch of the
service that required men of consider
able executive ability and it was not
made up of men who "could not fill
the bill for any other job" Previous
experience was the basis on which the
selections were made for the various
branches of the service. The man
qualified for the Quartermaster Corps
went into that branch of the service.
Governor Denney did not see SER
vice in France. That was no fault of
his. He was at Camp Lee, Va, four
teen months when orders came co
him ordering him to the Embarkation
Headquarters at Hoboken fo~ extend
ed Field Service, which meant service
in France. He brought to me, when
he received his orders, the confidential
orders which included myself in The
group Of six officers ordered from
Camp Lee for foreign service.
We reached Hoboken on November
l, 1918. The following day, Saturday,

Tendencies of the Press

There was period in our history when
our newspapers represented the personal
opinion of the editor. Editorials and news
were dominated by his personality and rep
resented his Interpretation of men and
events. That this was so, was known to
every reader Confidence in the ability of the
editor, recognition of his experience and
knowledge of facts, and appreciation for his
spirit of fairness, gained support for the
publication and it became power for in
f1uence. Lacking these, the press had but
little effect
In those days the Press did much in
moulding opinion and thereby effected the
welfare of the State and Nation Strong
men controlled the Press of that day and
sensed keenly the tremendous responsibility
that was theirs. That was the day when the
Pulpit, Platform and Press were the domi-
mating forces for good in America.
Following this period came the days of
news as a market product. print the news"
was the slogan. Editorial opinions and in
terpretations were not wanted. Print the
news and the reader will interpret and there
by directly effect statecraft, was the policy
of this school, The natural result was the
development of the commercial newspaper.
The news was put up in attractive form

WAR RECORD

Continued from Page One.)
Pom was a few months under the age
limit of forty-fve years or he would
not have been able even to be con-
sidered as candidate.
That "very low account of compe-
tency being required" was the order
of things is not only untrue but in
sulting. Not only is it stigma on
those hundreds of thousands of Off
GERS who were the product of the Off
GERS training camps, who did fight
and bleed and die in France, but it is
a cowardly false and traitorrous re-
Election upon the War Department
system of selecting officers for the
army of the United States.
Such a system as prevailed at the
officers training camps in this coun-
try was only possible in democracy
such as the United States. To say
that Glow account of competency"
was required reflects upon any United
States Army officer who had any con-
nection whatever with the training
camp system. The products of those
training camps know that the very
officers who We're the commanding Of
ficers of the training companies were
afterwards the colonels, brigadier-
generals and major-generals who
commanded regiments, brigades and
divisions, with their officer personnel
selected from the very men who had
been members of their training COM
panies. To think any army officer
would select a man for commission
of slow account Of competency, re-
alizing that later this same man
would likely command company in
his own regiment or brigade, is ridi-
culous.
The United States Government did
pay 500 a month to the candidates in
the training camps. That this was to
be paid to the student officers was
not known, however, at the time of
their entrance into the camps, for

THE DAYS OF
THE CHEERFUL LIAR
ARE NUMBERED
No More Chance to Lie Like a
Gentleman and Get Away
With 1t

Little did young George Washing
ton think that some day all the world
would be saying, 81 cannot tell lie,
l did it with my little hatchet." And
still less could he believe that not by
the force of character should the truth
prevail, but that by the aid of science
the shrinking and guilty one would
be detected. We read the surprising
story in the Illustrated World, and it
is interesting to note that the female
of the species is still able to defy
science to great extent. She can get
away with it while the less deadly
male is caught. This we have always
known. What concerns US is whether
the new invention registers the df-
ference between the emotion of guilt
and that emotion of the innocent ac-
cused who has more of the telling OF
guilt under unjust suspicion than ii
he had done the deed. Hope fades Al
we read:
"'You can fool the judge, but you
can't fool me- So says this recently
invented machine, the lie detector. AS
long as criminals have existed, as
long as there has been a distinction
between right and wrong, and as long
as men have been brought to trial for
various kinds Of misdeeds, the biggest
problem has been to distinguish be-
tween truth and falsehood by judging
the statements Of people concerned.
1--WE hear a great deal about the
clever lawyers and judges who can
frequently size man up by looking
him in the eye or noticing his COM
posure. But the fact remains that
there have been many criminals who
have escaped punishment through a
plea of innocence and a peaceful out
ward attitude.
"The psychologist tells US that no
matter how hardened or how polished
liar the person may be, he expert
ences an inward emotion which in
f1uences his blood pressure and his
breathing. To detect this inward feel
ing, a sphygomanometer has been in
vented. The instrument is attached
to the arme of the subject under cross
examination, and a delicate dial in
dicates the mental reaction, the time
taken in giving an answer and the
blood pressure.
"The sphygomanometer is one OF
several instruments invented in the
last few years in the attempt to de-
tect lying. Some of them were de-
veloped on the theory that deliberately
making false statement affects the
heart beat. Others detected certain
actions of nerves which may have re-
suited from lying. Experiments have
proved the worth of the sphygoman-
ometer, which gives it's results on
the principle that false statement
causes change in blood pressure and
breathing. These experiments were
carried out by having a person stand
outside the laboratory, while certain
facts were given to him. He was then
taken into the room and the machine
attached.
"The man operating the machine
asked him questions in regard to the
facts which were told him outside. In
some cases he gave the correct an
swer, while in others he gave a reply
that he knew to be wrong. 1t was
found that 8s.5 per cent of the lies
told by men were registered on the
dial. A smaller percentage of the
actual lies told by women were detect
ed by the machine"

COOPERATIVE WORK IN SOUTH
SAVES FARMERS MUCH MONEY

During the last year a farmers ex-
change in Beaufort county, N. c., has
saved its members and the farmers
in the community between $4,000 and
100000. according to a report to the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture.
The organization, formed to aid po-
tato growers, has shown high prof.
cheney in cooperation. Last season its
activities were confined to the purchas-
ing of branded barrel covers and the
selling of potatoes. T%hirty-five thous-
and barrel covers were bought at a
saving of $700, and 1876 car load lots
potatoes were sold with a saving of
$50, 000.
A great growth in cooperative mar
keting and purchasing has been one of
the outstanding results of extension
work in the south. County agents, as
sisted by marketing specialists, thru
marketing demonstrations and by in
struction and advice, have aided local
county associations of farmers in
the cooperative selling of many kinds
of farm produce and live stock, and in
the cooperative purchasing of a great
variety OF farm necessities.
Farmers have gained a knowledge
of methods and acquired confidence in
their ability to do business on a CO.
operative basis. They are beginning
to undertake definite business organ
lzations on a countrywide and even
statewide scale for the marketing of
their main cash crops, such as cotton.
tobacco and peanutsa
Owing to the cooperative work in
cotton grading, CHASING and stapling,
and information given as to the market
value of the various grades and sta
pies by extension workers, it is esti-
mated that between 81 ,000, 900 and 81
goo, 900 saved to the cotton farmers of
Texas during the year in increased
