SHIRKERS ENCOURAGE FEROCIOUS VERMIN

PARIS, Aug A military surgeon at one of the great hospitals revealed today the latest ruse of the shirkers who return here from the trenches, officers as 'well as privates, are covered with parasites, which often produce high fever. When a poilu arrives here his first though is to get rid of the vermin, and at every barracks there are certain wards where returning soldiers are thoroughly disinfected. The treatment is repeated before they go back to the trencheB. This fact has

These photographs show some of the types common in the black republic of Hayti, where Uncle Sam's marines have landed and restored order, and which may become a permanent ward of the United States. In the large picture natives are gathered around a stone fountain. All have bare feet and legs. The dress consists largely of loose-fitting calico garments for the women, and cotton trousers for the men, with perhaps a shirt. In the insert the national means of transportation is exemplified. The patient little donkeys are about the only inhabitants of Hayti to do steady work. It is to be noticed that the harness is of primitive sort, consisting largely or rope. The Haytian beauty seated on the donkey panniers is probably carrying a few eggs and a little produce to market.

A small bundle of stripes with lots of kick to it pranced all over the stall of Mrs. Kitty Zebra at the Central Park Zoo to the delight of hundreds of children. The baby was born a couple of weeks ag"o, the first zebra ever born in the Zoo at New York.

Here is shown a part of the so called "submarine "zone" with the spots marked where the Lusitania and more recently the Arabic were sent to the bottom by German submarines. In this region seven ships have been attacked and American lives have been lost in each one. The ships were : The Falaba, sunk, 100 drowned, including one American. The Cushing, attacked by German aeroplanes, Americans seriously injured. The Gulflight, torpedoed, three of her crew lost.

The Lusitania, sunk, more than a thousand lost, including revolutions have been known to

more than 100 Americans. The Nebraskan, torpedoed, Americans seriously injured. Armenian, shelled and sunk, several lives lost. Arabic, torpedoed and sunk, two American lives lost.

There is only one country in the world where a white man cannot hold land, just because he is white. This Is Hayti, heavenly by nature and a hell spot by the wishes of its inhabitants, which the United States marines' rifles now keep in better order than it has known for a hundred years. Mexico's history has been a record of peaceful development compared with Hayti. where every man is a soldier and every soldier a general, and where as many as seven distinct

going on under the leadership of as

many "patriots" at the same time. When President Guillaume executed 150 of his political opponents and was himself later dragged from the French Embassy murdered and

his body torn to pieces, he was hut following the ancient Haytian tradition of savagery. Hayti is far different from Santo Domingo, the other "republic," which occupies the eastern two-thirds of the island, called sometimes Hayti and sometimes San Dnminpo. San Domingo was a Spanish colon'. The inhabitants are mostly negroes, and speak Spanish. Here foreigners are tolerated, if not liked. The United States runs the custom houses, pays the interest on the government bonds and turns the balance over to the government. Hayti was a French colony. The French language is used. The country has a color problem, but not of white and b!ack. There is rivalry between the rnulattoos and blacks. At

one stage of Hayti's history the mulattoes set up a government in the south and the blacks another in the north. God has been good in Hayti. Columbus found here a smiling island inhabited by two million Indians of the gentlest disposition. Fruit and flowers abound, making life easy. The trade winds drop their rain plentifully. The climate for the most part is even, the temperature in the hot months being more bearable than in New York. But the indolent blacks have suffered the fine buildings of the French cities to fall into ruins and live in most miserable shacks. Th streets and the sewers are identical. They depend on the rains to wash away the filth and as a result a!l centres of population are pest hples where whites soon take sick and die.
