Let the Big Brothers Get Busy The mothers are looking after the interests of the boys in the training camps and trenches. What about the big brothers? Hardly a family in the country that does not have a member in the national army or with the regulars. If the big brothers will take a personal interest in the welfare of their younger brothers a vast amount of good will be accomplished and many a homesick and lonely heart made glad.

If the kid has joined the colors, the big broth

er owes it to the kid to see that he is kept in pocket money and that he does not run out of tobacco if he uses the weed.

Papers, magazines, and articles of comfort are slight tokens, but they assume monumental proportions when they reach a kid in one of our

K " country's cantonments. The big brothers often overlook these little things, not because they are not generous and big hearted but because they are negligent. The lad who leaves home for the army often is getting his first taste of life away from a familiar environment. Homesickness and dissatisfaction may assail him. If his brothers show him tangibly that they have not overlooked his patriotic impulse, the kid will soon accept his new life with satisfaction and accommodate himself easily and quickly to the new surroundings. v Every-big brother has an opportunity to help the kid in these days of preparation for the great war.

hearsal. 'We'll take just about fifteen minutes, before we begin, in smiling at our neighbors and getting a little community, spirit." Fifteen minutes later songs were being voiced in such a manner, says a news dispatch, as to prove the worth of the fifteen smiling minutes, and throughout the rehearsal the glad notes came tumbling over each other direct from the heart. Before the chorus adjourned the director

preached the following little sermon : ,

"Who can say that community singing Isn't a great thing? It may entail some sacrifices for some of us, but in the end it Is well worth what it costs each of us.

both in the pleasure we give the community and the enjoyment which we extract from it for ouraelves. A per-

son just naturally must he happy when singing, and the joyousness is sure to spread to the community, for songs

from the heart are contagious." The theme may be amplified to include all kinds of work. A smiling man brings cheerfulness to his task. He radiates happiness. A happy disposition, a constant smiler, is a boon to every organization. If community singing will spread cheer, brighten burdened souls and increase good will among ben, it is a feature that commends itself to our city. Its cultivation should be encouraged and fostered. When the community singing of our own city is under way the smile serum ought to be injected at once. It will increase the happiness of the singers and communicate itself to their relatives and friends. Singing and smiling are good antidotes for discouragement and the blues.

"Smile" Keynote for Song It doesn't take the West long to develop an idea. Out in Kansas City, community singing was recently introduced. Rehearsals are held in a church, centrally located. "Smile!" said the director of the chorus to the 550 men and women who attended the first re-

Called Down by the Colonel

From the Detroit Free Press. GOLONEli ROOSEVELT gave a luncheon In his New York office one day to a company of young magazine writers. These young writers had had many adventures and they told the colonel many interesting stories. After one sportsman had drawn the long bow almost to the breaking point in a yarn about a hippopotamus, Colonel Roosevelt fixed his glittering eyeglasses on the criminal, and began: "Let me tell you an experience of my own, my boy, an experience almost as incredible as yours. In '98 I was shooting grizzly bears in the Rockies. I tracked a grizzly to a high peak one day. I advanced toward it along the edge of a precipice three hundred feet high. Getting a good shot at last, I let drive, but missed. The bear came for me then like lightning. I took aim again, but as I was about to fire my feet slipped, I fell and my gun dropped and rolled over the precipice. There I lay, unarmed and helpless, and the maddened grizzly not six feet away." Here the colonel paused, and took a sip from the tall glass of milk milk is his favorite beverage before him. The mendacious young man frowned impatiently. ?Well?" he said, "Well? Go on. What happened?" The colonel, looking him calmly in the eye, replied: "The grizzly devoured me."

WASHINGTON, Oct. 15. Detailed , Information reaching the government! has confirmed the opinion in official circles that the submarine crisis is past. Germany, building more U-boats than ever before, Is obtaining less results than at any time since and even before its proclamation of unrestricted undersea warfare. This Information Included flenres aa

to the number of submarines captured and the number believed to have been sunk. Officials acquainted with them declare the total would give a thrill of astonishment and satisfaction to the allied peoples, should they be made public. New U-boats Shells. While it is admitted that Germany probably is Increasing its fleet of Uboats, the destruction being less than the reported output, the new U-boats show the depreciation of Germany's resources. They merely are shells with engines in them, compared to the powerful submersibles Germany had in the early months of its campaign,. Many are not much better than death traps, it is declared, and the opinion is expressed that many German submarines are lost through the risks of the sea. which, if added tn th

allies' toll, would throw the balance

me oiner way.

The Situation Still la RPrlmia. and

seriously the nations fighting Germany, the danger point has been left to the rear.

The situation is viewed as follows: 1. There is no hope of driving the

submarine from the seas, but its activity can be limited to the destruction of smaller and less speedy ships. May Curtail "Patrol. 2. The only serious aspect of this question is that submarines will limit the transportation, of petrol to the Entente, as tankers are slow boats. Convoying is depended on to get petrol to the allies, the tankers to be sent in fleets, guarded by fast destroyers. 8. Three developments have entered into the reduction of submarine efficiency. They are increased proficiency by armed guards on merchantmen, an increased number of destroy ers and development of devices designed to disguise merchantment from ecouting submarines. The last two developments entirely are due to the entrance of the United States into the war. The destroyers America was able o throw into the war zone gave the needed balance to the allies.

KATIE'S STORY OF HER MYSTERIOUS DEPARTURE Still very nervous but calmer than she had been, Katie remained quiet when I raised my voice to reach Dicky waiting In the adjoining room. -Oh, Dicky," I called, " you may come now." Dicky drew a low chair in front of the couch where we sat. "Tell me first, Katie," he said kindly, "why do you think I want to put you In prison? Because of the money? Never mind that. I want to talk to you of something else." But Katie was hysterically tugging at the neck of her gown. From inside her bodice she. took a tiny chamoisskin bag. and ripping it open took out a carefully folded bill and handed it to Dicky. "I never spend that money," she said. "I never mean to steal it. But I had to go away queek from your flat, and I never, never dare come back, give you the money. After two month, send my cousin to the flat, but he say you move, no know where. Then I always keep the money here. 1 think maybe some time I find out where you live and write a letter to you, send the money." Dicky took the bill and unfolded it curiously. A brown stain ran irregularly across one-half of it. "Well, ITi be eternally Messed," he ejaculated. "If It isn't the identical bill I gave her. Ten-dollar bills were not so plentiful three years ago. and I

me, and that was going some in those days." He turned to Katie, smiling. "You see you don't have to be afraid any more. I'm a respectable married man now, and it's perfectly safe for you to work here. Mrs. Graham will take care of you. Run along about your work now, that's a good girl." Katie giggled appreciatively. Her mercurial temperament had already sent her fiom the depths to the heights. "The dinner all spoiled while I cry like a fool," she said. "You ready pretty soon, I serve." She hastened to the kitchen, and I turned to Dicky Inquiringly. "I suppose you think you have gotten into a lunatic asylum, Madge. Of all the queer things that Katie should apply for a job here and that you should take her." "I didn't know you ever kept house in a flat before, Dicky." "It was a very short experience," he returned, "only three months. Four of us, Lester, Atwood, Bates and myself pooled our rather scanty funds and rented a small apartment. We advertised for a general housekeeper, and Katie answered the advertisement. She had been over from Poland only a year and was greener than grass. She lived at a cousin's somewhere on the East side, and she used to annoy us awfully getting to the flat so early in the morning and cleaning our living room while we were trying to sleep. But she was

standing with a letter in her hand looking oft lnte space with her eyes full of misery. She had heard of some relative." "Of course you wanted to paint her" I suggested. "You bat." Dicky returned. "The idea came to me in a flash. You can see what a heroic figure she was. I had her get into her Polish dress she had brought one with her from the old

country and I painted her as Poland miserable, unhappy Poland. Gee! but I'm glad you happened to run across her. Well put up with anything from her until I get that picture done." Try as I might I could not share Dicky's enthusiasm. I knew it was pretty, but the idea of my maid acting as Dicky's model jarred my ideas of the fitness of things. But I had sense enough to hold my peace.

Get a small package of Hamburg Breast Tea, or as the German folks call it, "Hamburger Brust Thee," at any pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful of the tea, put a cup of boiling water upon it, pour through a sieve and drink a teacup full at any time.

relieving congestion. Also loosens the

the average merchantman practically is indistinguishable, even at a short distance, has been perfected by an American to a point where it is only one more step to make merchantmen invisible. The American is Thomas A. Edison. For months it has been heralded about

that he was at work on an invention

to eliminate submarines. But the plan

he was working on wa no sensational invention to blow up and destroy U-

boats. it was, instead, a method of hiding the masts and painting the vessells eo that they would blend with the sea. It was declared at the Navy Department today that merchantmen treated with the Edison method now are "as invisible as the submarines." Confidence was expressed that they soon will be entirely "invisible" against the horizon.

Katie's eyes dropped. Her cheeks flushed. "I 'shamed to tell," she murmured. DItky muttered an oath beneath his breath. "I thought so," he said slowly, then he spoke sternly. "Never mind being ashamed to tell, Katie. I went the truth. I worked at your portrait that morning, and then I had to go to the studio. When I came back you had gone, bag and baggage, and with the money I gave you to pay the tailor. I never could nish that pkiture, and it would have brought me a nice little sum."

For some years, various and sundry concerns have been making beverages which are grouped under the general description of "near-beer." Then came Bevo- a cereal beverage, not a "near-beer," but offered purely for what it is a delightful, wholesome and nutritious drink. Bevo met with instant and complete success. A whirlwind success. Owing to Bevo's popularity, some beverages are now being offered in a way to make the appearance of the package look as much like the Bevo bottle as possible. The intention is obvious. But you don't taste the shape of a bottle it's the flavor of the contents of the bottle that you must depend upon for enjoyment. Then beware of impersonators don't be satisfied to try to identify Bevo by the shape of the bottle alone

There are these certain identification marks that are your protection against imitations. Not just imitations of the product, remember but those more insinuating imitations which try to deceive you by putting an old failure into a bottle similar to a new success. So look for these unmistakable marks of the genuine Bevo demand that the bottle be opened in front of you, then
