A MILLION MEN AND TEDDY. (Written for Ihe Dorsch's Cook County HD Advocate-Review.) BY JEREMIAH STONE ALLEN. Teddy never needs no other Introduction When we hear that name we know Just who it- means. He's the idol of the people of our nation And as bright as any earthly star that gleams. When hj comes to town the Teddy fans go crazy Because they know he's honest thru and thru. For they like a fighting man, and know that Teddy can Hring honor to the Red, the White and Blue. There are a million volunteers thru-out the country Who would like to go across the sea with him; They are the youth of and flower of our nation And are waiting for the hot time to begin; For they want a man the nation can depend on. A man that's not afraid of any foe; So we hope the President will soon have Teddy sent Across' the sea to cut the tyrants low. CHORUS. A million men and Teddy To go across the sea With cavalry" fand Infantry In the fight of liberty: With the Stars and Stripes to guide them They will rush and crush until The sword of General Ilindenburg Goes fo the Hero of San Juan Hill.

GOOD evening'. Have you submitted to the government a plan for trapping U-boats?

EVER since the Indiana Dally Times started to raise a battalion of tmops the other Indianapolis papers haven't said a word against it.

INDIANA futilities Commission has started to probe coal prices. And Just as soon as It Is tlft-ough with that job it can dig into the ice Question.

OUTSIDE of being invested with several rollywogs and full of typhoid germs, some of the drinking water in towns "in these parts is fairly pure-

animate things. The Sun, more than any other newspaper, has a sharply defined individuality, a distinct and emphatic personality." Truly said, but the Sun of today is not the Sun of yesteryear, the Sun t 1 1 a t. was. Some six or seven years ago the Sun took on a gradual hut insidious change. Finally it drifted into the hands of Mr. Munsey. The change became perceptible. Before what was like champagne, sparkling, enticing and of alluring bouquet was now of flat taste. The latter years have robbed us of America's wittiest and most brilliant newspaper. Gone is The old Sun style of news writing, gone are the most sedate headlines that topped off news stories, each and every one a masterpiece- No longer does the editorial rage seem to have that dominating note of intellectuality that is to be found in the musty files of the old Sun, whose pages day by day recorded the history of the world, the passing sherr of the nation, the chronicles of a slate, the day by day dramas of a great metropolis. A million and one tragedies and comedies sleep between the covers, and those sketched in them are as good actors as ever drew human breath- Those pages teli a wealth of things. e e MY- Munsey has been a success in the newspaper business, but. neither he. nor his predecessor should have stepped into the control of the Sun. It was a national institution that should have been allowed to follow its oldtime traditions and its own brave style of literature. There never was a newspaper like th old fun and perhaps God knows that there never wiu be another one; there may be better Journals, but. we doubt it, for this age seems to be too fast to breed such companies of finely-moulded and pains-taking characters as- those who builded the old Sun- They constituted America's

College of Belles-Lettres as- far as newspaper literature was concerned, with a no higher post-graduate course elsewhere of wit and brilliancy. The school was at its best in the old rambling building that stormed so many decades of journalistic history. Just like its- overseas contemporary, the London Times, the greatest of all newspapers, newer years have brought new control. The mind of a Harmsworth, now lorded by the king as Northcliffe, however Napoleonic in its acquisition of newspapers, was never meant for the Times. That venerable, but ever-young international institution soon showed it and "The Thunderer" of today does not thrill as it did a few years hack. Great newspapers, especially those of "sharply defined individuality" and "emphatic personality" do not continue so when taken over by the Eonapartes of the journalistic world. They become too much of a province of a little empire and soon suffer a decline. Where the brains of a thousand can build tip the shrewd brains of another organizing, but impersonal genius, can soon dispel all traditions unconsciously, but nevertheless . effectively. We miss the old Sun just as much as we do the old Times, The name lives on, but the spirit is dead. It no longer thrills. Like lilacs in June-time either one is only a reminder of what it once was.

WHAT MARRIED MEN CAN DO. London, May 11. All able bodied Britons, single or married, up to the age of 50 are to be called upon to volunteer for military training in the near future, the war office announced tonight. When England went into the big war it is said that few there ever expected the fighting to last long or that married men would be drafted. Yet after single men were all called they began to take the married men by degrees. Until recently men of a with families were called to the colors, now the ?ge limit is extended. While in this country single men over 21 and not over 31 are subject to draft onthe first call the future is uncertain and no one can foretell what emergencies may arise within a year or two that will force America, to call married men in their thirties and forties lo the colors. In the meantime the man who puts himself into better physical condition, wTio can Join a home military organization and do some text book studying isn't going to lose anything. He will gain mentally and physically, and the touch of discipline and close order drill imparts will stamp itself into his whole being. Such work makes one acquainted with the rudiments of a manly science that is never uninteresting. Besides every bit of military knowledge a man acquires will stand him well ghould this country require his services.

THE GOOD OLD DAYS. On March 10 we printed: It Is becoming so that they will soon be having diet squads to show a poor man how to live on f 1 29 a meal. N Then was the halcyon times, two months ago! Wheat then was only $1-87 and flour was in proportion and so was even-thing else. We didn't dream of wheat at $3.40 in March. The world do move fast, so fast that in May we can look back into March and gaze at a happy sea of low prices we thought, they were high then, high because potatoes w-ere 75 cents' and iron $10 a ton cheaper than now. This suggests what of the future, of two months hence? And before we forget it the March paragraph must be revised to read in a manner that is fitting In these days of kingly prices.

The beauty lotion which is becoming so popular throughout the country is easily prepared by anyone, and a whole quarter pint of it doesn't cost any more than a small jar of the common, ordinary cold creams. Add the juice of two fresh lemons to

three ounces of orchard white and shake j wtjl in a bottle. Strain the lemon juice two or three times through a fine cloth J so no pulp gets into the lotion, then it j

will keep fresh for months. Regardless of what price you pay tr how highly ndvertised. there is nothing else really more meritorious in beautifying, softening and clearing the skin. As a tan and blemish remover, also to remove oiliness and sallowness, lemon juice has no rival. Massage it injo the face, neck, and arms once or twice each day. and just we if it doesn't bring out the rosea and hidden beauty! Demons have always been ysed to bleach the fkin. but pure lemon juice too highly acid, therefore should never be used except in this manner. IT properly rrepared. this sweetly fragrant lotion will speak for itself. Any drug store will supply the three ounces of orchard white at very little cost, and the grocer will supply the lemons.
