Paris, Oct. 1. (By Mail.)—To guide the “walking wounded” back from the front to the first available aid - station, the Red Cross is fur- nishing the army with thousands of small cloth signs. Medical officers have learned that many wounded suffer great hardships during severe fighting because of their inability to find the nearest dressing station. In some: cases men have become lost and wandered about for hours. The Red Cross markers will be dis- tributed following each advance, and tacked to trees, posts or any con- spicuous object by Red Cross men and strectcher bearers. The markers are of white cloth with large Red Cross and arrow to indicate the direction of the nearest dressing station. OPTED THE YANKEES; WELCOME IN HOMES By ARTHUR B. MANN. (United ‘Press 'Correspondent.) . London, Oct. 1. (By Mail.)—Eng- land has adopted the American sol- diers and sailors _within her shores. Her hospitality is limited only by the number of men who.come here. To- day, Vice-Admiral Sims, Commander of the American naval forces in Euro- pean waters, and Maj Gen. Biddle, commander of the American army in England, told the United Press what this hospitality means to the United States forces in waging the war. “Since our entry into tue war,” said Admiral Sims, “nothing has been more impressive than the hospitality of the British people to the officers and men of the United States navy based on these islands. “Organizations and private indi- viduals have vied with one another in opening their clubs to us, presenting up with their residences, arranging entertainments, and even attending personally to our wants. To military men serving far from home in a for- eign country, the importance of this in maintaining the morale and happi-| ness upon which success in war de- pends, cannot be over-estimated. We have been deeply touched.” ~ Gen. Biddle Enthusiastic. Gen. Biddle was egually enthusias- tic and appreciate in declaring: “During the past. week the British | entertainment committee has been ar- ranging for the extension of private hospitality and also for various forms| of entertainment in different parts of | the country to American officers and men, whether stationed or on leave in England. This means that Ameri- can soldiers will find more home life while in England, that they will have by way of recreation a weéll organized system of stimulating entertainment | and a great opportunity for athletics. “The British entertainment com- can soldier in England a happier and healthier man.” Hospitality plans recently worked out provide for invitations to Ameri- can army and navy officers and men on leave in England to spend at least part of their time as guests in Eng- lish households. Information- bu- reaus have been established at ports of debarkation and at military camps where records are kept of the ad- dresses and accommodations of those who have opened their. homes to Americans. As the men report for leave, those who desire to accept such invitations will be assigned to homes, and, as far as possible, they will be sent to the parts of the country they desire to visit. For Convalescents. The same plan has been arranged for officers and men who are conval- escent from wounds or sickness and discharged from hospital but need further rest before returning to duty. Hundreds of Engiish parents whose sons have died in the cause for which America is fighting are opening their homes under this arrangement. Hun- dreds more, whose sons are still on the battlefield, are doing likewise. Those who have no sons are doing their utmost to be foster-parents to the Americans over there. The work of entertaining Ameri- cans troops at rest cemps and sailors at shore stations is already well un- der way. There are movie shows at most of the camps and frequent con- certs, boxing bouts and theatrical per- formantes by professionals and ama- teurs from nearby towns. Artists and performers are showing the greatest readiness to volunteer for this work during during their spare time. In fact, the objective which Eng- land set out to achieve not many weeks ago has been reached-—Eng- land is “Blighty” for the American mittee is helping us make the Ameri- —————— -~ Paae ' 'THE BEMIDJI DAILY PlONfiER PRESIDENT APPEALS T0 AMERICAN PEOPLE TO SPEED UP LAGGING LOAN Washington, Oct. 14.-— President Wilson has appealed to the American people on hehalf of the lagging Lib- erty Loan. ‘With only a little more than $2,- 000,000,000- of the $6,000,000,000 subscribed, the president took occa- sion to declare that the best thing that could happen in this critical hour of the nation’s history was an oversubscription to the loan, Nothing has happened,, the presi- dent insisted, which makes it safe or possible to lag in war preparations. The president’s statement follows: ‘‘Recent events have enhanced, not lessened, the importance of this loan and I hope that my fellow country- men will let me say this to them very frankly. The best thing that could happen would be that the loan should not only be substribed, but very great- ly over-subscribed. We are in the midst of the greatest exercise of the power of this country that has ever been witnessed or forecast, and a sin- gle day of relaxation in that effort would be of tragical damage alike to ourselves and to the rest of the world. Nothing has happened which makes it safe or possible to do anything but push our effort to the utmost. The time is critical and the response must be complete.” Secretary W. G. McAdoo also issued a personal appear that subscriptions be doubled. Reports reached the treasury that persistent rumors are being-circulated among Hungarian populations that every Hungarian who buys Liberty Bonds will be imprisoned if he ever returns to his native land after the war. This report, apparently promot- ed by enemy interests, will be com- batted with explanations of its ab- surdity.

An old Scotch gardener says. for plants subject to mildew take two tablespoonfuls of sulphur and a lke quantity of air-slaked lime and boil for ten minutes in five and a half pints of water, stirring continuously. Allow to cool and when settled pour off the lquid into bhottles and cork. Use one part of this stock solution to 100 parts of water, Plants likely to be affected should be" syringed every three weeks, and mildew then will seldom appear. Plants badly affected before treatment have to be syringed three times in suc- <esslon, “~ NOTICE OF BANKRUPTCY. United States District Court, District of Minnesota, IMifth Division.

BIG EATERS GET KIDNEY TROUBLE Take Salts at First Sign of Bladder Irritation or Backache. The American men and women must guard constantly against Kid- ney trouble, because we eat too much and all our food is rich. Our blood is filled with uric acid which the kid- neys strive to filter out, they weaken from overwork, become sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and the result is kidney trouble, bladder weakness and a general decline in health. When your kidneys feel like lumps of lead; your back hurts or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment or you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night; if you suffer with sick headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid stomach, or you have rheumatism when the weather is bad, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a table- spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine.
