try to issue orders to each other 1900
miles away and without specific knowl-
edge of the circumstances under which
each side is working every day there is
bound to be friction Secretary Weeks
has the highest appreciation of the abil-
ity of General March. Were it a question
of just having chief of staff with whom
the secretary of war could get along, there
wouldn't be the slightest hesitation on the
part of MIR. Weeks to retain the present
head of the army. But General March in
CURED to some extent the ill-will of mem
berS of congress who We're not accustomed
to being treated brusquely even in war
times. just as General Crowder made
enemies in congress by u rigid enforcement
of the draft law, so viii General March
be known in army history as one of the
martyrs of the war in Washington.
A Practical Settlement.
Secretary Weeks, however, has taken
a practical and not a sentimental view of
the situation. To smooth out the various
controversies and start things going he
had to appoint new chief of staff. Gen
eral Pershing's ability and prestige bulked
large in the equation, yet it was realized
To put General Pershing in the closest
contest with administrative detail might
serve only to keep alive certain elements of
controversy. For instance, Major Gen
eral Edwards, who was sent back from
France at Pershing's orders. is directly
under the jurisdiction of the chief of staff.
Other sources of friction due to overseas
troubles might have been revived were
General Pershing to be obliged to handle
the personnel of the army again-some-
thing that it is believed was distasteful TO
him.

First Plan Impractical.

The first plan suggested was the hero
of the American cNpeditionary forces be
made a general of reserve armies and
occupy u separate and distince post from
the peace time organization of the army.
Bat careful examination of the law re
yeaIed that this was impossible-the
army and all its parts must be under the
command of the chief Of staff. To ask CON
gress To make q new law meant legislat-
ing for n particular situation, which
might be embarrassing upon the retire
ment of General Pershing. The only way
out was to make General peTshing chief
of staff. give him nominal command of the
entire army and specific command of the
reserve armies. The man chosen for assis-
| tant chief of staff-General Harbord-iS
! a close friend of General Pershing. In
! France General Hartford was in command
| ond line of defense. a post that required
extraordinary ability. General HarDord's
| executive talents won universal praise
| He Is not only an able but a popular Off
| Ger and his record overseas is such that
/ he can be expected to handle the peace
time army without friction.
: First Secretary Weeks had to handle
| the Edwards controversy. He solved that
/ by making Brigadier General Edwards a
! major general and putting him at the top
| OF the list. Then he had to tackle the
| controversy over the retention of Gen
eral Marcn and finally the recognition of
| General PerShing'S services. Secretary
| Weeks feels that he has recognized all par
! ties and begun a new deal. And now he
wants the rank and file of the army. the
| cllqueS and the cabals to cease their in
| trlgueS and settle down to business.

SLEUTHS' INTUITION AT FAULT
Investigation of Suitcase Convinced

Two federal prohibition field agents

nudged his companion in the ribs.

The two thereupon watched an ell
derby colored couple. The man had a
suitcase which seemed heavy, and he
handled it gingerly as he placed it
under the seat. The agents studied
the situation and then decided to act.
Excuse me-" said one of the agents
addressing the colored man. 1--WE will
have to bother you to let US see what
you have in that suitcase

THE WAVES STORY.

When the waves who had had ad.
ventures on the earth were back
again in the ocean they were so hap
py. They had been bad, they knew
now, to have grumbled about their
home.
1t wasn't until they had gone to
other places that they realized that
they were so happy at home and that
they had just grumbled for no reason
at all.
"Oh Mother, we never want to leave
again." they cried. at was awful"
Listen, children" said Mother
Ocean, while l tell you something.
Never before have any of my chill
dren wanted to leave me. l knew you
couldn't live away from home. But l
thought I'd let you see for yourselves.
My friend, Mr. Wind, promised he'd
bring you back to me again, and he
did,"
Just then the waves heard some
children laughing as they ran towards
the ocean on the southern part of the
coast where it was very warm.
"Oh, ocean, how we love you," they
cried
Later in the day many people
came and swan in the beautiful ocean
and the fairies sang as they rode over
the breakers in their boats of foam.

SHE PUT UP A GOOD FRONT

Supreme Feminine Ordeal.

A screech emanated from the rear
room of one of those fancy tea houses
with which Columbus is so profusely
blessed. Patrons who were clustered
around the tables looked up in as

ooh, it was a mouse. He walked
right under that table over there"
said young lady, her face flushed
from excitement.
"Don't be afraid of a little creature
like that" said the woman who had
the place in charge, and who at that
time was in the front of the estab-
lishment tying up box of candy for
two young men.
"YeS," she said in an undertone to
the young men, unheard by the fright
ened girl in the rear, who marveled
at her bravery, but I wouldn't like

why DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND
SWAMP-ROOT

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp-Roo
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi-
cine.
1t is a physicians prescription.
Swamp-Root is strengthening medi-
cine. 1t helps the kidneys, liver and blsd-
der do the work nature intended they
should do.
Swamp-Root has stood the test of years.
It is sold by all druggists on its merit
and it should help you. No other kidney
medicine has so many friends.
Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start
treatment at once.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR.

Just Suppose.

And everyone smiled and cried with
joy as the cool waters of Mother
Ocean refreshed them.
Gust suppose" said one of the
waves who had wandered off, that
we had never come back! We would
have been so unhappy and we wouldn't
have been of the slightest use. Here
is where we can do our part on the
long, hot days and when it is cold we
can rest and play and laugh and sing
of all the joy we give when it is
warm"
Home" said another one of the
waves, ''home, ocean home, is the
place for the waves and let every
one hear our story SO those who may
think that they must 60 out into the
world and over the earth in order to
be great and fine and in order to be
happy will hear that it is at home that
they can be greatest giving simple
happiness to many"
Mother Ocean gave great ball that
night. The wind came and danced
x,
sea-shells laughed and sang and
through it all Mother Ocean kept
smiling and singing TO herself:
Away from home,
They wanted to roam,
Away from the ocean deep.
And l did not say No.
But l let them go,
Though many salt tears did l weep,
But now they are home,
They no longer will roam,
Away from the ocean deep,
And they will say No.
If l suggest that they go,
So now l can sing and not weep"
And ever since that day none of the
waves have ever wanted to leave their
Mother Ocean to adventure over the
earth. And if you will lsten to them
as they are having their make-believe
fights with the rocks or having
great old argument with Mr.. Wind OF
playing hide-and-go-seek with the Mist
Grandchildren you will notice that
their voices are glad and gay and mer-
ry and that they do not sound as
though they wanted to leave the
ocean.
And they sound as though they so
much enjoyed their ocean life.
If ever any other waves grow tired
they ask to hear old Mother Oceans
story of the adventures of the waves
who left the ocean; and when the
story is over they sing to Mother
Oceans great delight this song:
Away from home,
Wen never roam!
Wen always happy be,
For the deep blue sea-
Is the place that we
love. and our dear King Foam!
And Mother Ocean we adore,
Wen never leave as those waves of yore,
Who so unhappy were away
Longing for the ocean night and dayn
And since that time they never have
left Mother Ocean!
