A few days ago when he filled the
gasoline tank under the front seat he

access to the unusual place by flying
up under the seat.
Innis says that he parks his ma

FIND LOST BATTALION
Navy Department Forgot Marines
Soldering in Cuba.
Six Officers and 274 Men Posted in
Island During War to Protect
Sugar Property.

WashingtOn.-A lost battalion" Of
United States Marines. @ officers and
274 men, were formally found" by
the Navy department a few days ago.
Since August, 1917. the battalion has
been stationed in Camaguey. Cuba. In
the very heart of the island. with no
apparent reason for It's being kept
on such an assignment since the days
Of the war.
The discovery OF the missing" ma
rines was made by Assistant Secretary
Roosevelt after much searching OF rec
ersis and inquiry among ,aarine officers.
The hunt was started as the result OF
the recent incident In Camaguey. when
the marines kicked up some excite
ment In the Cuban town after Leroy
Foster. an American engineer and
former navy officer, had been attacked
and beaten by Cubans.
What are the marines doing in
CamagueyT Mr. Roosevelt asked him
self after looking at the map OF Cuba.
and was asked by others equally
curious Nobody seemed TO know.
Mai Gen. Lejeune. cOmmandant OF
the corps, said they were there all
right, but could vOuchsafe no addi-
tional information. The navy list
showed marine officers regularly
assigned to the Camaguey post, but the
warrant for such duty seemed TO be
lacking.
Finally ancient papers were found
which showed that, back I'm 1917,
shortly after Cuba entered the war
on the heels OF the United States. the
Cuban government had requested the
State department TO permit the
stationing of American marines at
Camaguey TO guard sugar properties
there against pro-German plots.

EVERYWHERE IN AMERICA.

Not somewhere in America, but every

Where snow-crowned mountains hold
their heads, the wales where chill

Beside the bench and whirrlng lathe
on every lake and stream
And in the depths of earth below, men
share a common dream,
The dream our brave forefathers had
of freedom and Of right.
And once again IN honOr's cause. they
rally and unite.
Not somewhere In America is love OF
country found
But east and west and north and south
once more the bugles sound
And once again. as one, men stand to
break their brothers chains.
And make the world a better place,
where only justice reigns
The patriotism that is here, Is echoed
over there
The hero at certain post is on guard
everywhere.
Ger humble home and mansion rich
the starry banner flies
And far and near throughout the land
the men of valor rise.
The flag that fiutters DER your home
Is fluttering far away
Ger homes that you have never seen.
The same impulses sway
The souls of men In distant states.
The red. the white and blue
Means TO one hundred million strong.
just what t means to you.
The self-same courage resOlute you

Is thrObbing In the breasts of men
throughout this mighty land.
Not somewhere In America, but every

For justice and for liberty all free men

500 RAPIDS NO MORE
Once i.avigabIe Stream Reduced
to Rocks and Pools.
Fishermen Gather Big Catches In
Streamlets Where Once Angry
Torrents Ragged.

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich.-MOdern en-
gineering has broken the prestige OF
the old-time 500 rapids, reducing to
rocks and shallow pools a stream
which. I'm the days before the civil
war. schooners piled with no fear of
hitting bottom.
Completion of the last Of the COM
pensating dams above the rapids has
brought to the surface moss-clad rocks
hidden for centuries. and il Is now pos
sible to wade across a space where, In
1852. there was a stream OF such re-
spectacle volume that the sailing
schooner Uncle Sam passed easily.
Capituatlon OF the rapids. which has
drawn nearer and nearer during
seventy years, reached It's climax with
startling quickness recently when.
within an hour after the closing of
the dam, the rapids became gaunt
rock and disconsOlate rivuletS.
The scent of fish and moss filled the
air. In pools were some unwary crea-
lures of the water who had not fled In
time, and anglers hastened for their
kits. Most of the fish in the rapids
had taken refuge In the lower river
as the water receded.
But the passing of the rapids brings
some JOY, for fishermen believe the re
naming pools. some of them several
feet deep, will attract the rainbow and
Speckled trout. and that these will bt
more easily shared.
Dams above the rapids were con
structed TO regulate the depth Of Lake
Superior and To obtain a steady drift
OF water In the locks.
