Those who saw the last session
who watched the signing and heard
the President talk, and who had also
witnessed the last session of fthe Paris
conference, remarked the difference
At Paris the atmosphere was cold,
feeling was bitter. and theer was no
applause. At Washington everybody
was happy. Applause marked the at
taching of every signature and when
the President appeared he was given
an ovation not soon OF be forgotten by
those in attendance. Every American
citizen should feel mighty proud of
our President. of his vision and of the
result of the conference WHICH was
born in his brain. We should also
feel proud of our Secretary Of Safe,
whose work with Mr.. Balfour, head Of
the British delegation, in connection
with the differences between China
and Japan, resulted in such wonder
full understanding and good feeling.

Vegetarian.

Our doctor is a wise old lad, and
oft he says to me. The whole
blamed world is feeling bad, as sick
ly as can be, because the people are
galoots who seem to want disease;
they will not live upon the fruits
that grow upon the trees. The
wholesome turnip they traduce, they
shy at beets and prunes; they will
not look on onion juice. or pour it
in with spoons. They all must have
their roasts and steaks. and victuals
fried in grease; and so their forms
are filled with aches, which aches
destroy their peace. You've eaten
many cows, my friend" the good old
doc declares, "and pigs and chickens
without end, and geese and Belgian
hares. And now your bones are
full of lime, you are wreck, no
doubt. and you are groaning halt
the time with rheumatic and gout.
If you had eaten pears and plums
and rice and lemon peel, you would
not have scorbutic gums. or anthrax
in your heel. Right gladly would l
now explain the evil of your way,
but l must go and see Bill Blaine,
who has the cramps today. He ate
too many apricots. the contents OF
a can, and now a bob-tailed spasm
trots around his inner man."

By lst Lieut. Matthew R. Johnson.
As publicity officer, in this article,
| must call your attention to the i'm
perative fact. that the citizens to
whom the 9Th should mean much arc
allowing themselves to become neg
lectful in their enthusiasm for the
regiment. To be effective, enthusiasm
must be continuous. By this, l mean
that now since we are at peace, we
arc apt to pay little or no attention
to matters of our military organiza-
ton. We have too carly forgotten
the lessons learned in the late Worlds
War; hundreds of young men who
were drafted in Chicago regretted that
they had not taken advantage of the
opportunity which afforded them mill
tary training, while thousands from
other states wished for the oppor-
tunities which were available to the
Chicago young men for military
training. And to those who should
take advantage of the facilities that
are at their disposal, Unjust again
say, they are very imprudent and in
judicious.
We must fully realize that our Mill
tary Institution IS just as necessary as
our churches, banks, clubs, fraternal
societies and other businesses. And
like unto these; churches, banks, etc,
their success can only be obtained
through the support that is given by
the public.
It isstrue that those who survived
the late World War have had expert
cncc, but what OF the young men, who
should be prepared for that which is
an uncertainty You may ask, How
can | help" or, what should l do?"
or, How does it affect me- First,
by your interest in our military insti-
tuition, second, inculcate patriotism
in the hearts and minds OF the pres,
cnt generation. And if you are with
in the age limit make yourself an
ntegrant part of our organization.
Chicago, with its enormous colorcd
population might some day regret
their laxity and non-interest in one
OF its greatest and most powerful or
CARNATIONS. With an average OF APP
proximately 100000 colorcd men OF
military age there should be no ques-
ton of untitled ranks. On the other
hand, there should be a waiting list.
Great pressure was brought to bear
in convincing those in authority, that
our regiment was worthy OF Federal
recognition. Shall we let those efforts
be set at naught? We are carrying
on" but with the cooperation OF the
public we can better carry on
