TWO LITTLE ATTENTION PAIS II. S. TROOPS Farmers in Fields and Natives Go on With Their Regular Work GERMANS WELL BACK IN GENERAL RETREAT Business, Especially in Treves, Is Picking Up, as Americans Are Buying Souvenirs. Further evidence of the determination of the Germans not to be jarred out of their assumed role of indiff, erence was shown ni every village into which the Americans are going. The long lines of khaki-clad troop resumed their movement toward the Rhine, passing through dozens of villages until another twelve miles ha been covered. Farmers in the field and resident in the villages anil towns glanced ai the troops and went on with their work. Here and there Germans stared for a time curiously, but rarely was there a display of emotion or even of keen interest. With the exception of trifling acts by children there have been no signs of hostility reported. In a few instances children shouted derogatory remarks and threw small stones, but ther-> wa nothing more serious than that. Germans Well Back. The German troops are well back in their retirement and apparently there is no desire whatever to hamper the working out of the terms of the armistice. German businessmen, especially in Treves, have already begun to display more interest in the Americans, who, as is customary with them, arc beginning to spend their money. The prices of both foodstuffs and other ai tides are enormously high, but lb soldiers desire souvenirs and they were quite ready to patronize shops which are far superior to those in any town through which they have passed. It is understood that the American Military Government proposes to deal sternly with any offenders against the regulations the Army may establish, but the Germans appear to accept without question whatever orders are imposed. It is prob able that some of the civil guar's left by the retreating army will b; retained, if they give satisfaction i t thier duties. Pershing's Order Liked. A proclamation issued by Gen. Pershing has evoked a few expressions ' k or appreciation from the Germans, and the re is a notable tendency on the part of the people of Treves, Sarrebourg and other of the large; communities to act on his suggestion to resume their normal activities. The towns are filled with returning German soldiers, discharged from scr vice, who, since the Americans have |arrived, have been negotiating for civilian clothing to replace the uniforms which they are still wearing. \ MISS BKSSIK KIRTON', Miss Bessie Kirton, daughter of Mr. .J.

V I a I am one of the boys that left the County in which I was born to go to " one of the Colleges that offered to i the Government her whole force of i professors and buildings and in fact f her all to take men, or boys at least, i and give them the necessary train- r " ing that they must have in order t that they might act as officers in c the United States army and will be r home again in less than one week now. I cannot realize that I must stop s the training that has done me so much I: good so suddenly and go back to ci- { vilian life again so soon. c 1 have got a taste of military c training and I realize how much it means to a person to act for the good i of the people as a whole instead of I just for his own personal interest, i 1 don't know how other folks look at r it but 1 long to see the time come I when every boy will have to take a d certain amount of military training. 2 li makes a person feel that not on'y I he himself must stop the way in '] which he has been living but that he ; must get others to see that they t an't really live in the true sense c unless they help others to live. In any military organization in order t for the whole to be a success each t individual must do his part and thai ? he must not stop if one or two ol a his little whims arc broken up. So 'I you can readily see that when any r thing great is to be accomplished r that the people must stick together i and push it through. s Now, we see that when the United i States Government was pushed for officers she turned to the colleges for help and the heln was irivon. ( ? l - C? ' v ?.nd too, we see that a man cannot 1 be cxepccted to do very much unless v he has proper training. Now, some may say that the boys ( that joined the student's army train- j e ing corps did so in order that they h ight stay away from France awhile t longer, but I can say for the college } \-\t I went to there was not i. h single boy in the S.

J. 18-10 iii PLAYED IMPORTANT PART Now York.?America's famous Land battery" of 50 calibre 14.5 nch naval guns, which played so mportant a part in the German deeat, was described for the frist time n detail tonight by Lieutenant Compander Buell of the naval reserve at he annual meeting here of the Amrican Society of Mechanical Engilecrs. The seven guns of the battery, h aid, were built in 1917 for use on lattleships. They fired a 1490 >ound projectile at a muzzle velocity >f 2,800 feet per second and had an xtreme range of nearly 30 miles. The project of putting them on novable railway carriages for use in 'ranee, he said, was first conceive ! n the spring of 1918. The firs! nount was completed at the Baldwin .oeomotive Works April 25 just 72 lays after the bids were opened an i 10 days ahead of schedule and th ast one was delivered 30 days later, he guns were tested at Sandy Hook \:0. shipped from Philadelphia with heir crews and trains comprising 75 a rs. Lieutenant Commander Bucll said he trains were sent to the front an 1 he first shot fired at the enemy on September 5, not loss than 250 days Her the plan was first conceived, 'he guns which had the longest ange of any ever mounted on a rtovablo carriage were so successful n mobility and accuracy of fire that x more were ordered. The armistice was signed, however, before hoy were delivered. The crews were recruited from the Jreat Lakes Naval Station and were nade up of men all of whom had rait /ay experience. Lieutenant Commander William L. ,'athcart in an address on the Amerian fleet said it had an aggregate ,Drse power of 0,500,000 last June, or en timet; the power developed on 9th sides of Niagra Falls. This, ir haid, was about one-sixth of the mimary fuel and water power now nployed in the United States exepting locomotives. Completion of ships now under construction would, he said, increase he present hoi*se power of the navy y 70 per cent. o TRESPASS NOTICE.

It's mereuyi Calomel acts like dynamite on a sluggish liver. When calomel comes into contact with sour bile it crashes into it, causing cramping and nausea. If you fee! bilious, headachy, constipated and all knocked out, just go to your druggist and get a bottle of I Hudson's Liver Tone for a few cents, v.'hich is a harmless vcgctablefttibstitute for dangerous calomel.
