How Berlin Takes it Readers of the official statements issued by the belligerents must have been amused Monday when they read the Berlin version of the retreat from the Marne. "The French subject people," the report sets out, "Algerians, Tunisians, Moroccans and Senegalese, wer in the thick of the fighting and bore jthe main burden of the struggle Americans, including black Americans, and Englishmen and (Italians fought between the French." ! A good many irritating substances have gotten under the hide, of the Most High recently. ! Seemingly it peeved him immensely that French (colonials and negro troops from America were jable to maul and pound his Bavarians, Prussians, 'Saxons and Hanoverians. . The Allies haven't complained because the iMost High used troops from the German projvinces, principalities and kingdoms. When they (were driven back, they took their medicine stoicSally. The fighting ability of the American negro and of the colored colonials of France was a revelation to the Berlin high command. The colored troopers of the United States have shown their prowess and capacity for looking after themselves in a fight long before this. American generals knew that they would give Fritz a surprise and a beating at the same time. Evidently they succeeded to a markqd degree.

War Hints War Helps War Duties , (Compiled and condensed for the Indiana State Council of Defense by George Ade.) All of the tides have turned. The Germans have begun to move in the right direction. The U-boat peril is on the wane. The production of ships and airplanes and big guns is gathering speed after a period of uncertainty. It is in the air that our people have come to bat for the decisive inning and that we. are going to win. But it is no time for sitting back and taking things easy. ' Put increased vigor into all war work and don't waste valuable time discussing compromise peace terms.

The National and State Councils of Defense favor community singing. Each town should have a trained Liberty Chorus to sing the songs of our country and our allies at public assemblages. Possibly a state director will be selected to encourage and advise the community organizations.

The "Chain letter" plan for supplying funds to hospitals abroad or supporting other remote benevolent activities is not approved by the State Council of Defense.

Stay in School : Many boys of high school age are seriously thinking about quitting the schoolroom for the - factory and business office. High wages and , the resulting feeling of partial independence; as : well as plenty of pocket money, are the lures that are inducing them to quit their educational pur- ' suits. A boy makes a great mistake if he throws his school books away before his education is com- , pleted. Mental training is one of the best assets : with which to begin the serious business of life. It is not a gift or an endowment but something - that has been acquired by hard work and effort. w It is something that cannot be stolen or lost. It : is an asset that becomes more valuable the more : it is used and exercised. I The time to acquire mental training is in r youth. As age comes on, the mind loses its plasS tic qualities and becomes fixed. One of the most poignant regrets of old men is that they neglected .. to take advantage of educational opportunities : in their youth. Thousands of men find them- ; selves handicapped throughout life because they ; spurned mental training in the years when it was I easy to acquire and could be had for the asking. f The boy who leaves school now will regret his ; action before ten years are gone. The lack of ; educational training will hadicap him at every step. The few dollars he earns now will never : recompense him for the loss of a disciplined r brain. Statesmen and educators are warning ; boys not to terminate their studies hastily and r without forethought. Boys should accumulate : all the mental training they can acquire, for conr. ditions after the war will put a premium on the ; man who has a brain capable of grasping oppor- : tunities.

American women writing to their soldier relatives in France are requested by the Council of National Defense to make their letters bright and newsy and cheerful and, for goodness sake, refrain from expression of anxiety and 'grief. If the boy in France is getting along all right don't throw him into a fit of worry by writing him a blue and despondent letter. Tell the soldiers what the folks at home are doing to keep up their end of the war.

The Food Administrator says to save sugar now or go without it later. Also that honey and syrups instead of sugar will make victory just as sweet and bring it much sooner.

State Liberty Loan officials say that Indiana has met all of the financial demands made upon her since the war began and still has more money in the pockets of her people than she had before the war started. The Hoosiers are going to support their country with open-handed generosity, no matter how long the war lasts, and they are not going to worry about bankruptcy themselves.

Bagdad Rowboats Like Bowls Eleanor Franklin Eagan in the Saturday Evening Post. THE goufas of the Tigris are wonderful! And I suppose they should remind me of something besides the "three wise men of Gotham who went to sea in a tub." But nobody else who has written about them has ever thought of anything else in connection with them, so why should I bother. That is exactly what they remind one of. They are perfectly round reed baskets, ' pitched within and without with pitch." They have curved-in brims and they look for all the world like enormous black bowls floating uncertainly about. They are the only kind of row boat the Bagdad people seem to know anything about, and the river at times is literally crowded with them. They roll around among the larger and more possible looking craft like a thousand huge inverted tar bubbles; and the way they are laden is a marvel and a mystery. Many of them ply back and forth a3 ferry boats, and it is not at all unusual to see one of them carrying two donkeys, half a dozen sheep, a dozen people and somebody's entire stock of earthly belongings in bundles and bales. They are most pleasing 'to the eyes when they are carrying reeds from the marshes up river. The reeds are cut with their feathery blooms still on and are pack

ed in a goufa in upright sheaves, the effect being a gigantic imitation of a Scotch thistle, out of the top of which, as often as not, protrude the turbaned head and brightly hooded shoulders of an Arab passenger. The men who propel the amazing craft squeeze themselves in under its curving brim and wield long paddles and poles with a skill that nothing could surpass.

An Irish soldier had just lost an eye In battle, but was allowed to continue In the service on consenting to have a glass eye in its place. One day, however, he appeared on parade without hjs artificial eye. - "Nolan," said the officer, "you are not properly dressed. Why is your artificial eye not in its place?" "Sure, sir," replied Nolan, "I left it In me box to keep an eye on me kit '. while 1' on parade." Mrs. Newlywed went to the grocery . store to do her morning marketing. She was determined that the grocer ! should not take advantage of her youth and inexperience. ; "These eggs sre dreadfully small," : she criticised. "I know it," he answered. "But that's the kind the farmer brings me. , They are just fresh from the country this morning." "Yes," said the bride, "and that's the trouble with those farmers. They are so anxious to get their eggs sold that they take them off the nest too ' soon!"

, The new work-or-fight order has ' caused some remarkable changes in ; New York life. For the first time in ' Its history, there are girl ihail clerks at the Lambs' club. Other girls have ' been placed In charge of the telephone switchboard in place of men. When women are permitted to handle the mail and listen to the telephone calls of actors, no one can doubt that grim . war has us in its grasp.

in July must be an almighty good friend to America. Just been looking over the garden and find that our sweet corn is no smaller than it was three weeks ago. In our garden experience, this seems almost like progress. In a film the other day a western film one man shot another man and then rushed to the other man's wife and said (subtitle): "I have just killed your husband. Can you forgive me? I am so sorry." The lady puckered up her mouth, pulled down the corners of her eyes, and then a tear about the size of a walnut rolled down her nose. Then she said (subtitle) : "Yes, oh, yes. it was fate!" Then she collapsed in the murderer's arms. The husband

must have been some old boy around the house.

The Germans are forced to wear paper underclothing and eat mullen leaf soup. Well,' this is their war.

WOMAN

EVERY MOTHER EVERY DAUGHTER NEEDS IRON AT TIMES To help strengthen her nerVes and put color into her cheeks.

There can be no beautiful healthy, rosy. ehecjped women without iron. The trouble in the past has been that when women needed iron they generally took ordinary metallic iron, which often corroded t he stomach and did more harm than sood.

I always insist that my patients take only organic iron N'uxated Iron. This particular form of iron is easily assimilated does not blacken nor injure the teeth nor upset the stomach. It will increase the strength and endurance-of weak nervous, irritable, careworn, haggard-looking women in two weeks time in many instances. I have used it in my own practice with most surprising results. Ferdinand
