"You mean 'good-by 1915' and 'how do you do. 1916" Isn't that It?" "Exactly," said Uncle Harry, "and I lj«s wondering, as I walked over, Aether you fellows would like me to tell you about some of the important news of the Old Year—some of the big things that happened during 1915. Would you? How about it, Jimmy?" "That'd be fine," said Jimmy, "and"— "Sounds interesting to me, too, Uncle ( Harry." said the boys' father. "Do! you mind if 1 join your party? I'll THURSDAY KVU.JNAi\U, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH DECEMBER 30, 1915 take one of these back seats and I'll | promise not to make any noise." ''Glad to have you, father," said Uncle Harry, "and I know the boys will welcome you to our club." "Yes, Indeed," added the boys. So father pulled his chair around and Uncle Harry began: "To begin with, boys—and father — the war is still going on, and the armies in France are just about where they were last January. Lately, I though, there have been many peace rumors, coming from so many differ- I ent places, and 1 believe, and hope, I that before the end of the new year 1 peace will be declared. "Early in the year Germany was! successful in her campaign against 1 Russia, and captured a number of! Russian and Polish cities, including' Warsaw. Since summer Bulgaria has i joined Germany and the soldiers of! these two countries have invaded and ! : captured Serbia and have practically I opened a way to Constantinople so that j tJ»ey can join the Turkish forces in' that ancient city. Italy, which joined ] the British allies early in the summer, ! 1 at first made rapid progress against i Austria, but lately that campaign j 1 seems to have come to a halt. Al though both sides have tried to win I ; Greece, that little country has decided lo remain neutral. The Turks still \ hold Constantinople against the Brit ish and French fleets, and the British navy continues the successful blockade against Germany in the North Sea. "The war is costing about J 75,000,000 a day, and the number of men who) have been killed and injured runs into ! the millions—probably more than | 5,000,000. Germany alone reports the j loss of more than 2,000,000 since the ' beginning of the lighting. "Since lust Xew Year's Day the whole world lias learned of the suffer ing of the Polish people and great quantities of food and other needed supplies have been sent from America to Poland." "The war has caused the United Slates a lot of trouble this year, hasn't It?" asked Joe. "Indeed it has," said Uncle Harry. "Several American ships, and many i British ships carrying American cit- ! zens, have been sunk by submarines.] and President Wilson and Secretary of Stale Lancing have been about the two busiest men in the United States try ing to straighten out these difficulties. | After the big steamship Lusltania was ; sank in May. causing the death of j more than 1,000 people, including | many Americans, President Wilson j took a very Arm stand and secured from Germany a promise that more j care would be taken in attacking ships j on which Americans might be travel- ! ing. "It would have been very easy for I President Wilson to have caused the | United States to set into the war, but | he knew that Germany had no quarrel j with the American people and that the i sinking of the ships was the result of I Germany's efforts to prevent Great I Britain getting fresh war supplies and i not a wilful desire to harm Americans. I President Wilscn knows the awful cost j of war and thi suffering it brings to people and he has done all that he could to save America from what lias been going on in Europe for a year and a half." "Sow tell us something about what happened in tlie United Stales during I 1915," said Jimmy. "In some ways It has been record breaking year," said Uncle Harry. "We have had the biggest and finest ex position that the world has ever known —the Panama-Pacific Exposition at San Francisco. Our farms have pro duced the biggest grain crop in the history of the country. Our inventors and scientists have discovered how to send telephone messages all the way across the continent, and what is even more wonderful, send wireless tele phone messages from Washington to San Francisco and even on to Honolulu. American doctors have done splendid work here in our own country dis covering new and better ways of cur ing and preventing diseases, and have given aid to the sick and wounded in Europe. But for the American doc. tors and nurses in Servia, probably all tlie people of that country that were not killed in the war would have died in the typhus fever epidemic. "The United States government scientists have made many valuable discoveries, including ways of making a number of important chemicals which American manufacturers need ! but cannot get from Europe on ac- I count of the war. "Carranza, the Constitutionalist leader, j lias succeeded in winning control of the greater part of Mexico; the fight ing in that country is about over; the United States and many other coun tries have recognized Carranssa as the leader of the Mexican people, and plans are being made to give the boye and girls of Mexico good educations and help the people build up their country. "The nations of Central and South America are becoming more friendly with the United States, and if this war will only stay over in Europe, or better still, come to an end soon, the people of North and South America will con- I tinuo to enjoy the greatest peace and ! prosperity ever known. | "Early this month Congress opened |and President Wilson outlined his plans for new laws which he believes should be passed, including the im provement and enlargement of our army and navy. "The politicians are planning for the conventions which will nominate candidates for President, to be voted KMC OP on next November. These conventions will be held in June. The Republicans I will meet in Chicago and the Denio- Icrats in SI. Eouis. President Wilson will probably be the Democratic can didate for re-election, but nobody seems to know who will be the Kepub i lican candidate. j "It's been a great and important I year. boys, and 1916 will be even ] greater. There will be lots of intersst ing things happening and you can count on me telling you all about them." "Happy New Fear, Uncle Harry!" shouted the boys as Uncle Harry started up the street. "Same to you, boys, and many of them," he answered Copyright, 191.", by the M-C Syndicate. THE PUEBLO'S WINTER RESORT When the winter months come on, the work of agriculture Is forsaken and the Indians leave their abode huts on the floor of the valley and go • up into their winter quarters, which are located 011 the top of a table I mountain, known as Acoma Mesa.
