SOLDIER TRAIN FROM VERMONT PASSES THROUGH
A train load of United States cavalry troops from Fort Ethan Allen, VerBont, passed through Richmond this afternoon enroute to Columbus, Tex., where they will become a part of the brigade of regulars now being rapidly mobilized. Seven coaches were packed to overflowing by enthusiastic young men in olive drab, keenly anxious to take part in the Mexican campaign. The rest of the train consisted of box cars, filled with cavalry horses, and flat cars on which were baggage wagons and ambulances. It was a
business-like looking outfit. There were four troops on the train, comprising one squadron of the F'lfth Cavalry regiment.

"Such suggestions must by no means be listened to by those to whom is confided the moulding of the minds of our children. One the contrary, be looked upon as the principal task of .ne teacher in all primary schools to make sure that the terrible lessons and experiences of these present days leave an indelible trace upon the minds of the coming generations. "The most beautiful task of our teachers should be to instill into the minds of the children 'a growing love
and admiration of our kaiser and king and the Hohenzollern dynasty. A daily prayer for our august sovereign has been introduced in our schools, and it should remain after the war as a living expression of love."

FORD BRANCH INVITES FOLKS TO VISIT SHOP
The management of the Indianapolis branch of the Ford Motor Car company has notified Fred D. Bethard. local Ford agent, of a special invitation
to citizens of Richmond and vicinity to visit the Indianapolis plant and. inspect the manufacturing methods. The factory is located at 1315 East Washington street, and a trip to the Hoosier capital is incomplete without a visit to the Ford plant. The Ford Motor company is making the inspection trips an item of importance. More than five hundred visitors have been entertained throughcut each of the winter months. Experienced guides, familiar with points of Interest are always on hand at any time during the day to explain the wonders of this remarkable twentieth century factory. The visitors are first taken to the i
fouith floor and there begin the trip through the upholstering department, on to the paint shop, the assembly line, repair, shop, wheel painting and tire departments and offices, ample time being given at each station fully to acquaint the guests with the workings vt the plant in general.
critics. Marcel Hutin, a well-known authority on military matters, says; "This attempt to envelop the left wing of the French army at Verdun is not being conducted with sufficient troops to cause us alarm." Paris is expecting an extension of the battle front and it would cause no surprise to military men to see a continuous engagement from Vauquois in the Argonne to Eparges in the Woevre district. At the ;ime time the Germans would probably attack elsewhere In order to divert the French from sending large numbers of reinforcements to the Verdun front. Lines are Stronger.
It Is declared that the withdrawal of the French from Houcourt Hill, which was captured by the Germans yesterday, strengthens instead of weakens the French lines northwest of
erdum, because a salient has been formed there, which is in danger of being cut off. The withdrawal in no way lightens the task of the crown prince, but only increases the difficulty. The Echo de Paris states that the capture of Haucourt knoll cost the Germans losses out of proportion to the strategis value of the position. However, it can be sai that the Teu
tons are not wasting soldiers with such lavishncss as formerly.
