TO OUR READERS
How many objects the names of which begin with
the letter up" can you find in this picture?

It's a big game in which everybody can take part.
Who can find the most such objects? Take a pencil
and get busy. Everyone in the home, Pa, Ma, Bobby,
Mary Ann, Grandma and Uncle Bill. First see who
gets the most at home. Then combine your list and
send in the big list to the Press office and if your list
has the largest number of correct words you get a
prize of $500.
But if with your answer you send in $500 for one
wears subscription to the Miller Press you get $500.
If YOU send in two subscriptions you get $4,000 as first
prize; and if you send in three subscriptions including
one new subscription you get $500; and if You send
four subscriptions, including two new ones, you will
receive $4,000. See table of prize elsewhere in this
announcement.
There is no hitch or trick to this puzzle. 1t is easy
and above board. It's the contestant with the sharp
est eyes that will find the most objects and win the
big prize.
1t costs nothing to try in the first class. You will
want the paper for another year anyway so you might
as well get into the second class. But to make the
game really exciting and worth while get into the
third class by sending us a new subscriber; or better
still, into the fourth class by sending us two new sub
scribers and win a prize of $500. With very little
effort you can break into the fifth class and qualify
for the 5000 cash prize.
It's going to be some fun. Now who gets the big
prize? Can you find so? Probably even more?

An American Doughboy
In France.
BY ELLIOTT F. HOFFMAN
(Historian of Alexandria Post No.
"a, American Legion.)
(FOr the Alexandria Gazette.)

At p. m., April 18TH the Leviathan,
formerly the German Faterland,
weighed anchor, the bands began to
play "Homeward Bound" and amid
wild cheers Of the troops on board,
that great ocean grey hound began to
pillow its way through the 5000 miles
Of water separating America from the
war-worn Europe. For seven days
and nights, crowded in small compart-
ments, we whiled away the time, look
ing forward to the day when we would
once more get peep at the "old girl"
who stands with torch in hand at the
entrance to New York harbor.
The food we had on board was ex-
cellent, and, although because of the
large number of troops aboard meals
we're served only twice day, every
one seemed to have enough to eat.
Uncle Sam used rare judgment in
feeding the troops we'll on their re-

A. L. I. Still Winning
A Great Schedule For The Coming
Week In Basketball.

Armory Hall was the stage where
two interesting basketball games were
played Saturday night. The prelimln,
airy contest was between two local girl
clubs, the Virginia Props and George
Mason High School. This was the
final Of three game series in which
the Props were victorious by a score
Of to 5. The tossing Of Misses Chill
cote and Hohenstein, he defensive
playing Of Misses Schafe, Irby and
Saunders, and the work in center by
Miss Orlinger were all factors in win
ming the game.
The big game was the first Of a
three games series between the Alex
andria Light Infantry and the Ar
lington A. G.. 1t was an easy but in
teresting game, the soldiers winning
by the score of 81 to II.
The soldiers have thus far this sea-
son been victorious fourteen times in
as many starts and have an aggrega-
tion the Washington CUNTS seem un-
able to subdue. Authorities of the
game predict the only probable team
capable of giving the locals the short
end. Of game is the Yankees of Wash
ington, and as they are unwilling to
take any chances with their honors
this early in the season, the locals
are making plays for laurels in Balti-
more and Philadelphia. The Yankees
have found their equals but once this
season, and this battle was with the
fast quint known as the Baltimore
Orioles who visit Alexandria on Janu-
airy 21st., to meet the soldiers.
The 4. L. /. team is composed of
local talent and critics say without re-
serve that it is the best team that
Alexandria has had to represent it
since it has been contestant in the
sport. The acquisition of Eisgrau,
formerly of Brooklyn but now engag-
ed in local business, and Dudek, ex-
captain of the quint from the Dread
naught North Dakota; Champions of
the u. S. Navy, have considerably
strengthened the soldiers team and
with practice and better knowledge
of signals the A. L. I. quint is dstined
to win the championship and rank
foremost in basketball circles.

as if to welcome us, looking just as
we had left her.
Slowly the many tugs drew this
huge ocean liner into her dock AT Ho-
boken; and, as the sun was slowly
sinking in the west, the troops began
to disemhark First the sick and
wounded and they were many, were
carried off on stretchers and placed in
ambulances, of which there were per-
haps several hundred waiting at the
dock. From another gang plank the
l65th Infantry New York; were dis
embarking; many ferry boats were
waiting to carry them 20 the opposite
side of the river, where sr"n;"i '"ains
were ready to convey them - Camp
Merritt. Meanwhile the lGSth Infantry
and casual" to which the late c.
Marshall Schofield belonged, were
held on board until the next morning,
at which time the "casuals" were as
signed to various hospitals around
New York. The 16Sth Infantry were
conveyed to Camp Upton, on Long
Island, pending rehabilitation. All
of the original Iowa boys were carried
to Des Moines Iowa where big
parade was held in their honor; while
the rest of us were sent to the camp
nearest our town. Here we were paid
in full, handed bonus Of $50, per-
mitted to retain the soiled clothing we
wore, and given transportation to our
homes. Thus Uncle Sam released the
American Doughboys from France.

WIFE IS PICTURE
0F GOOD HEALTH
Doesn't Look Like She Was Ever Sick
A Day In Her Life, Declares
Husband

"My wife and | are so happy over
her wonderful recovery that we are all
the time telling people about this
great medicine Tanlac," said }. W.
Hogsed, 1921 Roctland ST., Pittsburgh,
Pa. Mr.. Hogsed has been superintend-
ent of the Curry Building for the past
twelve years, and is widely known and
highly respected.
"This year for the first time in
twelve long years my wife is in good
health, and Tanlac is what has brought
about the great change At the time
she began taking it she had suffered
from stomach trouble until she was
almost a nervous wreck and was so
weak she could hardly walk across
the room. Everything she ate hurt her,
and she just had to live on milk toast.
After eating just few mouthfuls,
she began suffering from cramps, and
for hours was in perfect agony. She
could scarcely sleep any, and was so
thin and weak. / just about gave up
all hope of ever seeing her we'll again.
But neighbor told us about Tan
lac, and it helped her so much that
now she doesn't seem like the same
person. She eats three meals every
day now, and nver has a touch of in
digestion. All her old time strength
and energy has come back to her, and,
the fact is, she is in as good health
as she was fully fifteen years ago,
and doesn't look like she ever was sick
day in her life. Tanlac is such a
great medicine every sufferer ought
to know about it"
Tanlac is sold in Alexandria by
Edgar Warfeld, Jr., and by leading
druggists everywhere.

Former Undertaken is
Called Ghoul by Judge
Paid for Funeral He Buried Body
Unclothed and in Pine Box

Harrisburg Pa, Jan. 9.-The ac-
tons Of Charles H. Mauk, former
undertaken. in burying body IN
clothed and in a pine box instead of
a casket, after he had been paid for
a first-class funeral, were described
as goulish by Judge William H. Har-
gest today in sentencing him to
term of eight months Imprisonment.
Counsel for Mank appealed and the
former undertaken was released under
bail to await the action of a higher
court.
"The facts disclosed in this case"
the court said in its decision, "show
an offense about as ghoulish cold
blooded and reprehensible as case
of this kind could possibly be, No man
could have committed this offense ex-
cept that he had a hardness of heart
that was, too say the least. unusual.
"The jury have found this body was
buried without care, attention or prop
er clothing or casket, for the purpose
of filching few dollars from persons
who paid for the burial. We cannot
overlook the character of the offense
because it was not an offense whicl
was committed under sudden impulse
it must have been prompted by dis
regard for the solemn rights of peo
pie in distress and in mourning, t
say nothing of total lack of respec
for the dead"

having gone hungry so much of the
time while fighting overseas. Candy
was sold on board, and, as we had been
paid while at Brest, all were able to
satisfy their sweet tooth.

these figures were watched most

were lying in waiting. The governor
of New York had a committee to meet
the troop ships, their boat displaying
very large flier which read "Wel-
come Home" The state of Iowa had
sent out a boat from which flew a
banner reading Hello 16Sth-Iowa
Welcomes You" I may remark in
passing that the 168th Infantry was
originally part OF the states nat
ional guard. Another banner read
"Welcome Alabama" This was in
tended presumably to mean the 10th
Infantry, which was from that State,
but which was aboard ship headed
for another port. Many small craft
bore the families and friends of those
on board. These welcome boats fol-
lowed alongside the Leviathan, and the
mad cheering from the troops was
deafening; but the climax came when
the doughboys caught glimpse of the
"old girl" Many times had we said
to each other-"Oh for the day when
we can focus our peppers on that dear
old girl in New York harbor.'" And
