Fall

Islands of Oesel (1) and Dago (2); cities of ReTal (3) and Petrogrrad (4). The recent activities of the German fleet in the Gulf of Riga seem to foreshadow a German offensive yainst Potrograd. The fortified island of Oesel is now in German hands and the island of Dao, also fortified, is gravely threatened. Theso baies are of great value as commanding both the Gulf of Riga and the Gulf of Finland. But Germany already held the naval mastery of the Baltic. Unless the Germans plan an actual dash on Kroastadt and Petrorad the occupation cf Oesel and Dago will not greatly strengthen their position.

HERE'S SOME STUNT Hammond. Inl., Oct. 14. 191T. Editor Times: Dear Sir: Tour years ago I purchased a coal-bucke. at a five and ten cent tore. I am very rroud of the coalbucket, for ths reason I have made a very Important discovery. I am not going to have my inventive Ingenuity patented. Although I feel as proud as an Inventor. Necessity, what crimes have not been committed in try name. "What wonderful thought, accomplishments and achievements, thou ha3t throttled upon the human race! Hot kind, loving and just, some men are: How inimical, cruel ar.d unjust, re others! Being very poor materially, tut rich in mentality, I have decided to permit others to indulge in my genius and benevolence. Geology is the mother of my thoughts regarding the coal-bucket. Poverty, thy curse: At last, I have conquered thee! I take a bucket of coal end put it in a wash-boiler nearly full cf water. I boll the coal until it returns to a liquid state, simple is it not? I drink a pint of ths liquid every morning. The liquid is brown in color, "and has a dark brown taste." It makes me strong, vigorous, active, elate and jovial. Tou should be glad to know the amount of vegetation a bucket of coal contains! Oh, Elixir! A hay Pot-pourri! I should eskablbble, regarding the price of chicken feed.! WILLIAM KELLY, P. B. Voice of the people.

OPEN HOMES 10 SOLDIER BOYS

Uncle Earn desires a million homes opened to the entertainment of his troops in training. He thinks they will come nearer "canning the kalsor" if they are entertained in the creditable homes of the nation than if left to the purchasable associations of the streets. He believes that they will be better assets to the nation when the war is over. So he is asking that the communities outside the training camps be organized to furnish wholesome recreation and associations for his troops. Every boy In every training camp in the nation is homesick. He would not be a normal, wholesome boy if he were not. Near that training camp there is a home into which he might be welcomed and

given a bit of the sort of life to which he has been accuttorned. He will thus be kept a fl-ter lighting man. and the household entertaining him will have emulated the good Samaritan and will have increased the happiness of the world. Build XTp Organlsatloa That this service may bo rendered a great organization is Just now being built tip that will go beyond those agencies that work in the cajmpa such as the Young Men's Christian Association and the governmental supervision, that keeps the region around the camps as clean as possible of Influences that are hurtful to the soldiers. This work will organize the communities near the camps for the entertainment of soldiers, for the establishment of home ties and friend ties that the soldier rosy stilt feel himself a human being and not merely a machine of war. In this work the Playground and Recreation Association of America, an organization long in existence and engaged in a kindred work, is taking the

! lead. Through the agency of Chambers

of Commerce and other community organizations there is being raised the War Camp Community Recreation Fund, which will bear the expense of the na-tlo.'-wlde movement. The work is being done with the co-operation of the war department. John X. Willys, the philanthropic

' manufacturer and member of the Coun

cil of ational Defense, is chairman of the War Camp Community Recreation Fund. H!s organization Is working practically to keep the recruit from being lonesome and at the same time keep him from retting into trouble. One temporary community house already provided is little more than a big barn-like building with a big floor. Over the door thete is a sign, "It's yours come on In," and over the piano, "Do you play the piano? Hop to it," and "Do you Sing?? Join in," and over the table, "Do you want to write a letter home? Everything free." How fully these small conveniences are appreciated is shown by the fact that 5,000 men come in there every day and last month there were 0.000 pieces of stationery given away and 30,000 letters posted. The theory is that all America is put to school by this unique war. The camps are the greatest university of the people ever conceived. It is therefore essential that all the civilians outside the camps should fuse with all the troops inside in learning the unfamiliar lessons of effective social organization, which in America, in Russia, everywhere are to be the greatest compensation for the war's blooly toll.

The really up-to-date parent makes it a point to know about such matters. Glad to rive you the benefit of our experience.
