K.:C.TRUCKSPRESS CBELY UP TO FRONT

Keej Right on Heels of Army Vi Free Comforts For American Fighting Mea.

By J. Bay Johnson. VVH THE AMERICAN ARMIES IN ANCE, Sept. 2.—Since General Foclhe French military genins, met the rmans -at the Marne and sent tlienelter-skelter in the general direct of the Rhine, warfare has been revcionized. Tha^ is, leaders have harl back to the days before 1914, »nde allied armies have been called fror.he trenches and given the long-pral-for opportunity to meet the Hum the ltvel. The result was that Heit suddenly remembered an imjor»t engagement in Berlin, and stajd to hike for home. And the ®Jli millions followed in his waKt. rapid advance of the Americans, Freh and British affected in a rather •trtis manner t-e big war working ag&ies in the fielu At least, it affecl the Knights of Columbus so *tr* ly that overseas commissioners ancnambers of tiie committee on war aetities wer* luick to see that if thewdor hopea to follow the flag, its tnfc program would have to be alter, and it would have to speed up to sep pace with a victorious army Bwering millions of men. a word the directing committee fleced tA put a great part of its or£i nation—secretaries, supplies and all-in wh^e)..? in order to give the greest possible service to-supplement its Trvice in ppjTrianerit buildings. luting the Knights of Columbus In lance on wheels simply means that tb^implies and the K. of C. secrctariesvill follow the Stars and Stripes in otor trucks. Wherever the flag gofshe knights go, in order th?t the boytin olive drab may be given the besthe order has to ofEer—service under e.

Call for Big Trucks.

Be*e Sept. 16 there will be at least 150 hgo trucks, purchased in Europe or shped from this country, carrying supply to the .points of distribution. And each point, there -will be from five ti twenty smaller cars to carry the bujen further on to the men who are dog the fighting.

This? a. big job. The United States i* uowbilleting its men in at least 1.000 v,age.s and hamlets in France. If the nights of Columbus wanted to mak(it3 service 100 per cent effective it v*u!d have to establish a building in oyrv one of thf&e places. This would

bo practicable because the

hfORle Is lifting always, and the buildirgs won have to be moved with the niTt. Bu the truck system solves the problem. And the Knights of Columbus will illow out the program now w»ll imd' way the length of the American ighting front. "We appending our troops into the trenches. ad we are sending them in free," saidXMrector McGraw. "There are only afew things the boys crave when tbpyare in the trenches, and these thiry they must have. "It is diicult to realize how these borB live Tr days in the front line trendies. re thought it was rather hard on th*i to put them Into rough crimps rivpi-vipre, but now these boys hnv« develop into fighting men, and

they arts plring a wonderful part in the greatp? battles in an msiory. They nrc acta.lly in the fighting.

Soldies Want But Little.

Tha Amer?an army feeds its soldiers, but it oes not provide the men with the artiles the K. of C. trucks are carrying verywhere In the fighting zona. "There is omething soothing In a cigarette. Yy learn that when you reach the flrtg line. They seem to keep them ali„ Kverywhere they are clamoring for them, and whefi a K. of C. secretar arrives with a supply there's a celebation in the trenches. "Soap and tjwels are a boon, and "Writing xnaterU is worth its weight in gold."

Lawrence O. Murray, formerly controller of the Inited States currency, was left In Pars to direct the transport wort Ho will be joined by another highly-traned man, Edward L. Hearn, of New York, and in a very ffcw weeks the service w7ill be developed on a much irger scale.

STORY OF NUMBER 40

40 years ago an old doctor was putting up a medicine for diseases of the blood, tliat cured the worst cases of specific blood poison, and time proved that the cures were permanent. After many years I secured the prescription (being a druggist), and took eouh ingredient separately and referred to ray L". S. Dispensatory and other authoritative books on medicine and found the medical properties set down as follows: "Employed in diseases of the glandular system, in blood poison, scrofula, constipation, stomach and liver troubles, clironlc rheumatism, catarrh, in sores, ulcers, skin eruptions, mercurial and lead poisoning. Under its use nodes, tumors and scrofulous swellings that hare withstood all other treatment disappear as if by magic." To commemorate my fortieth year as a druggist I named this medicine "Number 40 For The Blood." J. C, Mendenhall. Evansville. Ind.

When Lloyd George was a youni country solicitor in Wales'he was rid ing home in his dogcart one day, and came upon a little Welsh girl trudging alojig so wearily that he offered her ride. She accepted silently, and all thi way along, although the future states man tried to engage her in con versa tion, he could not get her to say anything more than "Yes" or "No."

Some days afterward the little gfrl'tmother happened to meet Mr. Lloyd George, aftd said to him smilingly, "Do you remember my little girl riding with you the other day? Well, when she got home she said. 'Mamma. I rode from school with Mr. Lloyd George, the. lawyer, and he_ kept talking to me, and I didn't know whatever to do for you know Mr. Lloyd George, the lawyer, charges you whenever you talk with him, and I hadn't any money.**'

home, they could be self-supporting while, as it was, every cent they earned went' for rent.

Two kind, practical men took. the matter up and evolved a plan whereby such a home could be made by small contributions, no burden being placed on any one. Personal calls were begun and help solicited, consisting of money, material or labor. So hearty was the response that within a month a lot was purchased, then a three-room house with two porches was erected outhouses for.cow and chickens were built, a garden fenced, and a well bored, wind windlass set up. Good material was used—concrete foundation, aJid brick flue :md chimney. The lot had been set in fruit trees when bought so there was a ready-made orchard And when the painter was through with the buildings an insurance agent gave a thre-year policy, in case of fire. •Every bit of the labor Was voluntarj work.

The most eager helpers, S however. Vere the men who went ift wagons to move the family home. The matter had been kept secret from them, and you caji imagine their surprise and joy. They were a little black-eyed wfdow and three children, whom mitBfojtunc had pursued relentlessly for manV sad months. In their new home they were very happy, and this made it all immensely worth while.
