Mr. Brown is in France, a member of the engineering corps of the Unit- ed States army, and Philip is in the navy, serving on the U. 5. S. Mas- sachusetts.” = SEEMED TO COME TO THEM Few of Our “U” Boat Chaser Skippers Had Had Previous Nautical Experience., “Where do the officers of the sub- marine chasers come from?” I asked an executive officer long in the navy, writes Samuel G. Blythe in the Satur- lay Evening Post. “Bverywhere," he said. .. “Were they sailors?” “Not wany. of them; some had had experience in motor boats and yachts and were amateur navigators, but the way- they have picked it up is marvel- ous. Let me .give you an illustration. When I was organizing the first flotilla that came over I questioned the young chaps who came before me as officers for the chasers. Of the first five on one day one had been a shoe salesman, another.an accountant, another a nut inspector and another an actor.” “Nut inspector?” I said. “What's that?” “He worked on a pecan ranch down south somewhere.” “They had had some sailing experi- ence, and had {vken short special courses at a training school, Now.of that bunch three are in cominand of chasers today, four hrought their ships across and the actor is a unit comman- der,’and a mighty «ood one. too. That's where we got then. navy just reached out and coliected them here, there and. everywhere, aud they are good stuff and making sallors of them- selves mighty fast.” When Meat Was Cheap. The preprietor of “Sweets,” an old New York Riverside restaurant that has gone Into bankruptey, says: “When I came here, after the Civil war, to help out my father, we used to cook and serve the finest steaks {n the world for G cents—and make money on them, too.” Gas Masks for Horses. - The war department recently an- nounced that more than 5,000 gas masks for horses were being turned out daily by the gas defense service and that they shipped at once to France for the use of the animals em- ployed by the American expeditionary forces, Uncle Sam is training 4,000 boys a month for service in the new merchant marine, the work being done on train- ing ships operated by the TUnited States shipping board. The apprentice. lads on the ships show themselves apt in their new duties, and are keen to fill their leisure with some useful oc- cupation. Some of them, like the boy shown here, have a tdlent for making drawn work and fringe on canvas for hammocks, mats, manrope fittings, skylight covers and the like. This is the merchant saflor’s “knitting work.” BURN FRENCH HOMES Towns Wantonly Destroyed and Water Supply Defiled. Huns Caught Red-Handed in Crime Far From Line of Fighting. With the French Army in Cham- pagne—Detachments of engineers from General Gouraud's army in ex- ploring the region from which the Germans have been driven in this sec- tor have discovered in many villages evidence of the method by which the destruction of dwellings, churches and other public buildings wus organized. The region along the Retourne aboynds with indlcations of willful de- vastation of villages that were never within range of artillery, but were found razed. In others where houses were still erect they were mined for slow destruction, while the ‘purely military installations, such as barracks built by the Germans for their own troops, were left intact. Orders for the burning of Junville, a large village in the Valley of the tetourne, arrived on the day of evacu- ation. The people pleaded with the of- ficers to spare their homes, but the torch was put to every house. The village was one vast brazier when the French entered it. Mont St. Remy shared the same fate. ; At Neuville, where a villager im- plored that his home might be spared, an officer replied: “I know it s an ignoble task, but such are our orders.” Chatelet, Allncourt, Bignicourt and Ville-Sur-Retourne were partly saved because the I'rench troops pressed the Germans there so closely that the sap- pers left behind to do the work were surprised. Some of these men fled be- fore they could set off the mines which had been prepared. Others were cap- tured. : Tt has been mnecessary from French sappers and miners to 'explore the cel- lar of every house remaining intact in this region. Under mos® of them mines have been found. Mouths of wells were so mined that explosions would fill them with rock and earth. gjllIIIIIlll|IIIlIIlIIIIIIllIllllllllllllllllllllg PEPPLES FAMILY HAS ENVIABLE WAR RECORD Hermill, O.—The Pepples fam- fly of this city has an enviable war record, having been repre- sented in every war fought by the United States.

The role was made famous by Billie Burke in London . and New York, and Miss . Griffith’s interpretation qf the role of the young girl who refuses to marry, a book-worm, but chooses a count of many affairs, is said to n ure fully up to the high stan- dard set by that distinguished star of the speaking stage. f The rare histrionic talents and charming personality of Louise Glaum which has won for her the exhaulted position she now holds in the realm of the silent drama have never been seen to such splendid ad- vantage as in her newest Paralta play, “Wedlock,” which comes to the Elko theatre for two days, commenc- ing Wednesday.
