NEW SOLDIERS MEET PRAISE OF SIR FRENCH Territorials Drawn From All Ranks of Life Stand Firm Under Baptism of Shot and Shell.

EQUAL TO VETERANS

Come From Better Stock Than Men in Regular Army of United Kingdom and France.

BY E. ASHMEADE BARTLETT. BRITISH GENERAL HEADQUARTERS, France. June 2. At the outbreak of the war almost every one in England had complete confidence in the British small regular army, and lelt certain that it would give a splen

did account of itself on the continent On the other hand, there was wide

spread mistrust of the capabilities of

the new territorial army, either for

purposes of home defense or for service abroad. I will give my own im

pression from what I saw during my

visit to the front, and also the opln1 ions of various generals, without men

itioning names, which is forbidden by the censor, under whom they have

served.

The vast majority of the men who

fill the ranks of the territorial forces

; are drawn from a different class to

I those who enlist in the regular army.

There are clerks from the London fi

nancial district holding good positions. There are men who come from behind

the counter, and others who tin posi

tions of a highly important and confidential character as secretaries, accountants and mechanical experts. Every branch of trade and industry

is represented in the ranks. They are

men who have joined the force in time of peace, out of a sense of duty, because they feel that every able-bodied man should play some role, however small, in the defense of his country. Many have been obliged tcthrow up employment, which was bringing them large salaries, and now support their homes and families on the king's shillings and separation allowances. Some of the battalions sent to the front had to meet their baptism of fire under the most trying circumstances. "But, Sir John French himself is delighted with them," acorps commander said to me. "I consider the territorial battalions under my command the equal of any of the line battalions. Let them send me out as many as they can. I can ask for no better troops after they have had a few weeks of experience In the face of the enemy." A brigadier commander spoke as follows: "My territorials are a wonderful lot. I never saw finer troops. The men are wonderfully intelligent. They are as keen as mustard, and are acquiring a remarkable skill in trench warfare."

GERMAN CENSOR PUTS CHECK ON ACKERMAN

Carl Ackerman, United Press correspondent at Berlin, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Ackerman of this city, is having his troubles with the German censors. According to the dispatches of a Chicago newspaper man, Ackerman tried to cable the opinions of German editorial writers on the Lusitania incident and subsequent negotiations, but the censor drew a blue pencil through the story. Ackerman tried to tell the censor that if the German government permitted the editorial writers to express thfjir opinions in Germany, there certainly ought to be no objection if these were transmitted to the United States as press dispatches, but the censor was obdurate and the story jvent into the official incinerator.

SMELSER ATTENDS HEALTH CONVENTION

"Save the Child" was the slogan of the first day's session of the twentyfirst annual conference of the health officers' of Indiana, which convened in Indianapolis for a two days' meeting yesterday. Dr. S. G. Smelser, city health officer of Richmond, is one of the two hundred officials in attendance. The program yesterday consisted entirely, practically of speeches on the subject of child welfare. "Sixty-five per cent of the school children need medical attention," said one speaker. "Eighty-five per cent of all their trouble is found in the eyes, teeth, mouth and throat. Eleven states require a physical examination of all school children. Sixty per cent of the school children have remediable physical defects. The schools should be inspected three times a week." " 'What will it cost?' some people ask," said Dr. Hurty, secretary of the state board of health. "I don't care what it costs to save the life of a child. When a child is drowning in a canal or river, nobody stops to ask how much it will cost to rescue it. Nor should anyone ask how much it will cost to save the life of a child from disease." Dr. G. W. Bence of Greencastle, is presiding at the conference.

RECEIVE PEACE CALL

In a few days, the Methodists pastors of Richmond and Wayne county expect to receive copies of the special "Call to Prayer," appointed to be read in all the Methodist churches and being sent broadcast over the country by Bishop Earl Cranston of Washington, D. C, acting for the board of bishops of the Methodist Episcopal church. "Not once a day only, nor merely when convenient, but in our every thought of God let the cry of our hearts incessantly ascend for the peace of Europe and the world," says the appeal. The call is composed of more than two thousand words.

Germs Can't Stay With This Treatment

No Impurities Can Retain A Foothold They're Driven Out.

The action of S. S. S., the famous blood purifier, is direct from the moment it enters the stomach. Unlike food that must bo acted upon by the digestive juices, S. S. S. goes at once into the blood, and In les3 than five minutes has traversed the entire circulation. It now rapidly spreads its medicinal action in the fine network of blood vessels and is like giving the blood a thorough bath, to overcome eczema, blood risings, boils and other eruptive conditions. It can not harm any part of the system. It does not lodge in tho joints as do mercury, arsenic and other minerals frequently to be found in blood remedies. It is a natural medicine for the blood, just as essential to health if germs have gotten the upper hand as is nutritious food if after a spell of Fickness the body calls for nourishment. Wherever you go you are sure to meet some one who used S. S. S. for the blood and is a willing witness to its wonderful power to overcome blood troubles. You can obtain S. S. S. in almost any drug store in the U. S., a significant fact as to its worth and its sterling- reputation. Get a bottle today. It will do you good. Write to The Swift Specific Co., 104 Swift Bldg.. Atlanta, Ga., if the directions with the bottle do not fully cover your case.
