The young man also told the writer
that it was possible to obtain good
jobs with the graves-registration Or
ganization. Any fellow could go to
work for these people, he maintained,
at $3.50 month. This was later de-
MED by the Paris post of the Amerl-
can legion, which gets in touch with
good many A. w. o. L. boys and
whose officers understand their situa-
ton. Cabot Ward, vice commander
of the legion in Paris, discussed the
whole matter of the straying Yankees
in, detail with Mr.. Heilig We read ::
Why Doughboys Stay in France.
"The question is brought up" Mr..
Ward said, ''by certain requests from
the states asking what remedy we
have if it be true that there are 1000
American ex-soldiers destitute in
Paris.
1T is all Jumped together" he con-
tinued 1.-THE talk of which you know
is one side of the case. The facts are
ter position to realize them than any
other organization in France. It's
Paris post is the bridge-head for all
affairs of American soldiers in the
land where the war was fought
equally to safeguard their high re-
nown, to foster good relations with
France, and to stand by our COM
rades always!
MANY of our soldiers, for some rea-
son or other, stayed ON in France, and
an increasingly large number are COM
ing back to France from America,
where they were demobilized. This,
in spite of every effort to dissuade
them.
MANY are here legitimately. They
married French wives, or their expert
ence and qualifications bring them
good French salaries. There are also
to make good, and often capable of
making good, are stranded in France.
For such the Legion's Paris post has
an extended bureau. In the last two
months it's record is $50 men who
have been secured positions. 1t
amounts to 20 per cent of the posts
total membership.
Many Idle Americans in Paris.
"But also there are great number
of other men whom we assist by US
ing every endeavor to give them the
means of returning to the United
Il
States at once. This is because it is
with the greatest difficulty that any
positions are secured, and despite all
we can do, there are large number
of American ex-soldiers seeking en-
ployment in Paris-in vain.
"And, finally, there is a large number
of men, variously estimated from
1000 to 5000, who had deserted at one
time or another. Some of them had
previous prison records; such did not
exempt them in the draft. Now, I'M
fortunately, French police reports
show, all too frequently, that they are
at it again. In any case, the Paris post

HONOR FOR CANADA
Wins Championships at Interna-
tionaI Live Stock Show.
Splendid Exhibits, Both of Animals
and Grain, Won Admiration of
Judges and Spectators.

One of the most interesting sights
at the International Live Stock show
at Chicago was the evening parades
of horses and cattle. AS the Cana
dian section of these parades came in
to view, and as it passed around the
ring, there was continued applause.
There were two or three reasons for
this, the principal one being that in
this section there were the wonderful
Clydesdales, the Belgians and the Per-
cheronS that had carried off champion
ships and first prizes. The province
of Saskatchewan had splendid dis
play of Clydesdales and showed in a
number of classes, and in every class
they got in the money. A remarkable
and noted winning was that of the
University of Saskatchewan, showing
LADY Bruce" female Clydesdale, in
class of "a and taking second. In
competition there were entries from
such famous studs as Conyngham Bros.
of Wilkesbarre, P. L. James of Easton,
Mass, and George Chiett of the same
state. She was beaten by an imported
mare, but was later made champion
American-bred mare and reserve
grand champion, an honor never before
conferred upon anything but an i'm
ported animal.
The following are some of the good
things that Canada won at the Inter
national, in fair fight and no favors.
Grand obopopiopchin for ClvdaSda 10
stations; championship for American
bred Clydesdale mares reserve senior
and reserve grand championships for
Clydesdale mares; grand champion
ship for Southdown sheep; sweepstakes
grand championship for wheat for the
continent of America; championship
for Durum wheat for America.
Another of the reasons for the ap-
plause given the Canadian sections Of
the parade was the heartiness with
which the American spirit was .imbued
that impelled it to greet with the full
est appreciation the efforts of the win
ner, and the hundreds of Canadians in
the immense audience of the amphi-
theater appreciated it.
The purpose that Canada had in
making exhibits from their farms,
whether it was of live stock-and they
had it there in all branches-grains,
grasses or roots, was to demonstrate
that the war had not created devasta-
ton, that the country was alive with
interest in the matter Of production
and that it had ability to produce in a
manner that would bring 1t champion
ships, and what better place than the
international, where 1t would be placed
before thousands, many of whom, with
the enlightenment thus gained and
with desire to better their condition
would be made to realize that in the
neighboring country to the north there
was an opportunity that it might be
of advantage to them to embrace

comrades in French legal complica-
lions, but it can not help these latter
cases of deserters."
On another occasion 1 saw the post
adjutant, Arthur w. Kipling, and the
post secretary, G. M. Perkins, both con-
tinually on the spot, continually on the
job, surrounded by old members and
new members, and non-members.
Contradict that talk about the
graves job" they said. "The service
takes on nobody without satisfactory
identity papers and has two applicants
for every job. They are chauffeurs,
automobile mechanicians, conveyors,
checkers, reboXers, stenographers, ETC.,
from $75 to $3.50 per month. The work
you refer to is done by European labor,
and no Americans are on it except
high paid specialists, engaged from
the states. AS for the Preparations
service, it has six applicants for every
jOb-accountants, stenographers, and
special qualifications, at the same sal
aries, $50 to $3.50, but men coming
from the states to take jobs have bet
ter wages. This is true Invariably
Americans engaged on this side, in
banks, in no matter what, have al
ways and inevitably the poor end Of
the stick"
asked about the deserters-this
new category of Americans abroad, be-
tween the devil and the deep sea, hang
on by the eyelids. What can they do?
Problem of the Deserter.
"They can surrender" said the post
adjutant. Sooner or later they will
have to do so. No matter how for
tunately situated, some day their iden-
tity will come up seriously, and then
good night! A man came here last
week, asking for soldiers headquar-
ters! We told him there is no such
thing in Paris any more. He said:
4 have been A w. o. L. since last
November, and have tried to marry
and cannot get married, cannot get
papers, cannot quit France, cannot
live in France / have gone this way
as long as / can; and now / have
made up my mind that 1 will take my
medicine We sent him to Rue de Til
slit; and they inform US that they
forwarded him to the army of occupa-
ton"
'Are they severe at Coblenz, with
them"
Neither adjutant nor secretary felt
oraIified To answer I should consult
the military attache for such a ques-
ton; but as from man to man I gath
cred that "if the A. W. o. L. be since
armistice, we think not. Some, we
think, go to Leavenworth for a short
time, and others are made to serve
a while in Germany. But deserters
before armistice-they're different!"
The great question is papers"
"a man without papers cannot be
helped much, even by the post" they
said. "All honorably discharged in
France and staying over, no matter
how broke, need no passport-their
discharge is their passport, none bet
ter; all it needs, to return home, is the
passport bureaus wise. Men demob-
ilized in the states and coming again
to France on their own business had
to take out regular passport to sail,
and they have it yet. Men coming
on seamen's papers have them, even
if they jumped their ship. But an ex-
soldier without honorable discharge
YOU can guess his status"

BRAVERY OF EAGLE IMPUGNED
Those Who Know Him Say Monarch
of the Air Is Bitterly Devoid
of Real Courage.

The golden eagle, although large, is
not courageous. He never makes the
smallest attempt to defend his nest,
and his prey consists of small defense
less animals, like blue hares, new
born lambs and ptarmigan. In this
connection, correspondent sends the
following story: Climbing up hill on
my way home, one day, ran into the
shepherd in charge of the beat. He
had large canvas bag over his Shout
der, which shepherds carry on the hill
at this time of the year. 1t had a
large rent in it, and round about the
rent the canvas was very bloodstained.
l casually asked the shepherd how the
bag had got into the wars, and this
was his story, which / have no doubt
was perfectly accurate. On the pre-
vious day he had been out on the hills
soon after daylight. On one of the
higher tops he found a dead sheep,
with live lamb; he put the lamb into
the bag and laid the bag in a cairn
while he went down into the corrie
below to see after the sheep there.
When he reached the cairn on his re-
turn he found the following state of
things; there was large rent in the
bag, from which blood was exuding
freely; the lamb, still inside the bag
had been torn open and the liver and
heart removed. That was the work
of the eagle. AS he came sailing over
the tops his eye must have caught
the bag; probably the unfortunate
lamb gave. kick inside, and made
the bag move. This caused the eagle
to come down for q near inspection.
Having satisfied himself what the bag
contained, he tore it open and pro-
ceeded to break up the lamb.
