PAGE SiX KEEP WATCH ON ' NEW HUN ARMY Americans Taking No Chances With Germans. REORGAN'ZED ON NEW PLAN Majority of the Troops Are Simply Drawing Pay and Passing the Time the Best Way Possible in Their Home Depots—Each of the Units Includes Many Volunteers From Out- side the Ranks. The Intelligence sectlon of the Amer- jcan army continues to keep strict watch of the movements of the Ger- san army, and will continue to do so watil the Americse army of occupa- tion leaves the Rhineland for home after the signing of the peace treaty. Recent reports to the Americans dolding the Coblenz bridgehead are to the effect that the few units of the ald German standing army which were performing any active service early In Tebruary appeared to have been reor- ganized on a uniform plan., The ma- Jority of these troops, information In the hands of the Americans indicates, are simply drawing pay and passing the time the best way possible in their tharge or having mude up their minds fo remain In service in preference to seeking employment in civil life. Take New Name. These units are divided between those who are perfectly willing to per- form active service and those who are mot. The willing ones, usually includ- ipg most of the officers and noncom- asissioned officers, bave taken a new aame for their organization, but con- tinue to use the depots and other fa- vilities of the old unit. The unwilling soldiers also have been remaining in khe depots of the old unit. It was In this manner that the Rein- Aardt regiment which fought the Spar- tacides in Berlin and which early in February had companies assigned to Welmar when the pational assembly was convened, and also other detach- @ents sent to the eastern front, was formed from the Fourth Foot Guard regiment In Berlin and has retained possession of that depot. The new German Schutzen division consists of volunteers of the Thirty- first division, the volunteer regiment belng stationed In Berlin, while the re- mainder of the Thirty-first has been % depots in the Hartz region. German press dispatches from the region of Polish-German clashes re- cently mentloned the “Volunteer Bat- tllon Koop,” which was reorganized from the One Hundred and Forty-ninth regiment of Schneldemuehl. Another recently mentioned unit was the “Vorchsche Jaeger corps,” which re- ports indicate was the volunteer con- #ngent of the First Jacger bhattallon, the corps using the baitalion depot at Ortelsburg. Hach of the umits appear to include wany volunteers, from outside the ranks. and all of them were actively waducting recrulting. i According to rece! estimates of american army officers the standing Berman army the first week in IFebru- i ary numbered between 300,000 and | 1§ 00,000 oflicers and men. These esti- | metes do not include severnl hundred thousand soldiers who bave volun- teered for the defenses in the east & against the bolsheviki or the Poles #0 MACHINERY FOR ANCHORS ndispensable Shipping Adjuncts Are Still Constructed by Manual Labor Exclusively.

Six cents overpaid into the bank of the Dover rate collection department tas proved a costly mistake, says an English exchange. The government auditor declined to sign the audit, and aearly three months were spent by the affice staff going through the whole of the rate accounts, but the overpald threepence was nat traced. Eventual- / %y an appeal had to be made to the | (8 auditor, as the work of the depart- | 5 ment was being seriously held up, and g the accounts were passed subject to the consent of the overseers, which has been given. It s estimated that it sost several hundred pounds endeavor- {ag to trace this overpald threepence. S e SR Sl el home depots, patiently awaiting dts |, Making Goodness Attractive.

COMB SAGE TEA presses or reflects the character of its owner—good taste—careful thought and planning—the right sense of proportion—and a desire to provide for your family a home to be always remembered and of which to be always proud. You can build as attractive a home out of wood as you can out of any other material—at less cost and with ':gnal safety. But any material must be put together according to the rules of design and taste if the result is to be pleasing and attractive—if it is to stand for the things you mean it to stand for. WHITE PINE is the best lumber known for home-building because it does not warp or twist or rot even after generations of exposure to the weather. That is why architects all over the country specify it for “‘Quality Homes." : Valuable suggestions on both design and materials are contained in our booklet—¢‘White Pine in Home- Building.” Come in or phone us.
