YANKEE TRAINS IN FRANCE Quite Different From the Unassuming French Affair. When a French train signal*, with its queer squeak whistle, that it is about to mosey into a station, the depot attendants pas9 politely among the townspeople and ask If they would be so good as to get off the rails, so that the train might approach. The townspeople are there for visiting purposes. They visit with the engineer, firemen, conductors and other train officials. They visit too with the passengers, many of whom alight for a promenade, even for a glass of wine at the estaminet across the street from the station. The baggage men have great fun. Each package they hand out to the ...?a little history. siuuun auniuiuiui ??> - such a comical history. too- The air I buzzes with chatter and Is thrashed with gesticulations. Everybody is shaking hands. Eventually the train departs. Not so with the A. K. F. Special which has just carried rne across France, "Hoss. you is on the only 2b-gged train in France." said the black jiorter-private to me. while we were flying on our way. It was true. A couple of miles from a station our gigantic Yank would let out a couple of mad roars. The depot would (? deserted when we pot there and 1 could imagine the |<opulacc having taken to the air raid shelters. Nothing like such audacity in trains has ever been known in France. The American E. F. Special is called "Attaboy Special" by our army in France, after the chief of our transportation who was formally Genera) Manager W. \\*. Attorberry. of the Pennsylvania railroad. It was our only all-Amcrican |*assenger train in France. Of course, we have troop and freight trains on irregular schedules moving all over France, but these usually have crews wholly or partly French. The "Attaboy Special" is not a troop train. Its passengers are mostly officers moving between our general . ?, ??,i ?llr variouH impor (H'iKiquai in 9 tant bases ahong our lines of rommu-1 mentions, this whole area now being I ailed the S. O.

Ah. the ticket inan could I sell no billets on the American spe-1 clal. It was not a public train. I would I please see the American K. T. O.? I Railway transportation for officers. I I saw him. He had no tickets. He I asked to see my papers. I had my | American white pass and a O. H. Q. I letter to commanding officers to grant I me full facilities. "I will make a res-1 ervatlon for you," he said promptly. I "The train is due at?. It will be herel then." It was there. The time was at night I a stormy night, too.

In addition to the ammu- t nution huge guns, and other heavy a war materials were shipped by means li of the ferry.

Each f of the ferries had a capacity of fifty - c four fully leaded standard freight li oars. t f THE NEED FOR THRIFT. t Country Should Now Work and Save 8 As Well. a Thrift and after-the-war problems ' affecting insurance were the principal a themes of speakers at the opening of v the twelfth annual convention of the '' Association of life insurance presi dents In New York last Friday. The " speakers included United States Sena- * tor Charles S. Thomas. John Wannamaker. Dr. Charles Prosser and Rob- 1 ert Linn Cox. 0 Ordinary efficiency In public ad- a ministration would save the people of 1 this country $600,000,000 a year, Sena- 1 tor Charles S. Thomas, of Colorado. 1 told the association. He is a member of the senate committee on finance. P War's Ix'gacy and Need of Economy. "The war leaves us a legacy of a tf stupendous debt," declared the senator. n "It will reach, if it does not exceed. * $35,000,000,000, or twice as much as the v combined debt of the Allied nations, including Russia, when the war began. The annual interest upon this stupendous sum will be $1,400,000,000, nearly ^ twice the net total of the nation's annual pre-war expenditure. This means a vast increased rate and radius of taxation. The people must bear the n burden, for Germany cannot make in- a detnnity. They will bear it willingly, c if economy in public administration e and the application of every dollar to is the public needs shall become the policy of the government. They will not n and shall not be content if the gross ? extravagances of the past continue. a "In 1010 Senator Aldrich declared p that ordinary efficiency in public administration would annually save the p jieople $300,000,000. It would now save h twice that sum. If the taxpayers of v America will unite in demanding a h radical revision of our public service, r a consolidation of duplicating bureaus t and the institution of the budget sys- u tern in expenditures it will be done, f, If they will also rigidly supervise pubii ...litnrv.e tnvntion can be largely reduced. If they fail to do this our appropriations will keep in- j creasing, for every demand made upon the treasury is complied with when IK>liticnl or organized force is behind it, and everything in these days Is organized except the man who pays the taxes." "National Plague Spots." Senator Thomas declared that American shores have been flooded with a mass of humanity apparently unassimilable. The immigrant colonies have become "national plague spots, breeding places for all the ugly disorders of the century." Disruption of the central powers, he believed, would remove all restrictions upon emigration of their people. "The dam," he declared, "must be erected on this side of the Atlantic, and no time should be J lost in its construction. j "Your city typifies the general sit- j nation. It contains the germs of every \ social and political disorder. Parts of J Its press are constant and competent sewers of sedition. From such congeniul soil were bred the Black Hand X and I. W. \V. A powder magazine unguarded is not more dangerous to the community. I "Into the face of the sinister menace wealth flaunts the orgies of the great white way. It thus supplies the east side with text and justification. . cniien with the discon A IwimiuMuu, tent of poverty confronted with the vulgar and ostentatious display of lavish extravagance, will not always remain quiescent. An explosion is Inevitable. "It is a sinister fact that, excepting Lenine. nearly all the leaders of Russian Bolshevism graduated from the swarming centers of New York, Chicago and Philadelphia. Their bloody program was formulated here, and here they proposed to test it, when opportunity beckoned and Russia became their victim. From that con- ^ tlnental slaughter house they salute _ their accessories in America and urge them to the commission of similar atrocities. "The war has taught us the wisdom and the simplicity of thrift. We should make it a national virtue. It is the best cure for discontent." WAR TIME ADVERTISING. Its Importance to the Seller and to the Buyer. When so many war duties require every minute you can spare advertising offers you a labor-saving buying guide. Read advertisements today more than ever before. The war has thinned out the ranks of the sales clerks. As a result the counters are manned by many almost uninformed salespeople. So read the advertisements that describe the things you need so that you can Inform the clerk who is not familiar with the stock. Make up your mind what you want before you enter the store what you came to buy. The clerk's time is occupied in "waiting on you." mostly "waiting" for you to tell him. William M. Rankin, president of the William M. Rangin Co., was puoted in the Commercial recently as saying-: "Advertising lurnism-ii HIV I..V.chants and manufacturers with laborsaving salesmanship. Advertisements are written by people who are thoroughly posted about the advertised articles. One good salesman can by printing his talk, tell many thousands of people what they wish to know, where he could only inform a few If he had to rely on his voice. "Advertisements are then In reality well-informed salespeople talking to you in print. Their language is carefully chosen and condensed?to tell you facts in as few words as possible. Very seldom does any one advertise unless he has an unusually good product to offer. The cost of advertising automatically bars the unsuccessful. "On the other hand, advertising is the cheapest way a successful product ran increase its sale?for thousands are told the story in print where the same expense would tell only a few in firrsuo. "So read advertisements that describe things you need or tell you of products you should have. Read advertisements everywhere?in newspapers, magazines, etc. "Advertisements post you regarding lew and better roods, Improvemen n methods, etc. They keep you abrea if the times with the lea'it posslb rouble on your port. "Manufacturers will necessarily hai o curtail their salesmen on the roa nd only the substitute for salesm< s Silent Salesmanship?that is, prln d advertising. Therefore, retalle fill be asked to send their orders ft nerchandlse by mall, and the best we or manufacturers to make thousanc >f calls on retailers without emploj ng salesmen is through printed advei ising in trade papers, newspaper arm papers and magazines. "Advertising, too, will be used I ell you why you cannot buy certal oods, and to continue the good-wl nd trade-mark value of such mam acturers in the mind of the conBumi nd the dealer so that after we win tl rar the sale of such products can t ncreased and multiplied.

So. read advertisements to kee osted as to what to buy and also I e informed why you cannot buy cei aln brands of goods?because the: lanufacturers are devoting all of the Ime to building war products to hel fin the war.
