CCO CHEERS
YANKEES WHEN
SHELLS EXPLODE
Emotes Keep Spirits Up When
Men Face Danger in
Trenches
"There is no road in all the world
so lonely as that trod by the men
moving up to the front before an at
tack," writes a Y. M. C. A. secre
tary from somewhere in France.
"In full kit with their tin hats, gas
bags, bombs and oayonets they
trudge silently, each man in his own
private hell. No road was ever so
lonely since the path to Gethsemane
and Calvary. Men speak in whispers,
if at all."
The only cheerful word heard on
that march was when a Y. M. C. A.
lorry passed along with supplies
when a Tommy called out, "Good old
Y. M. C. A.," and there echoed at
least a feeble cheer from the gloomy
marchers. One reason why those
fighting men gazed fondly on the
association lorry was that it stood
for creature comforts, hot tea. choco
late and by no means least tobacco.
Every man before his wounds are
dressed gets hot soup, biscuits or
whatever eatables are In stock, and
always—cigarets. Does this not
prove how essential the Y. M. C. A.
people consider tobacco to be? One
of the association's secretaries asked
to go on record as declaring that
the "most Christian act he ever did
was lighting cigarets for men whose
arms were so badly wounded they
could not do it themselves."
One of these first aid tents behind
the British lines has cared for 13,-
500 wounded men in one day, fur
nishing them some refreshments and
always something to smoke. "The
soldier's best friend" the Y. M. C. A.
folk call the cigaret. It seems to
have its place in this great war.
essential as ammunition and muscle.
But the Y. M. C. A., while widely
organized, cannot get everywhere,
and that's why the earnest demand is
being made all over this country for
the American at home to contribute
toward the buying of tobacco for the
boys in camps and abroad. The
means of helping are simple, merely
enclose your money to the Telegraph
and the contents will shortly be giv
ing some Sammy a treat. Pipe and
cigarets appear to be the m,ost popu
lad and the tobacco shipped over by
the American Tobacco Company in
cludes just the right combinations.
Twelve Hogs Burn With
Barn Near Wellsville
Wellsville, Pa., Nov. 19.—Several
hundred bushels of wheat and twelve
hogs, together with hay and farm
implements, were destroyed on Sat
urday afternoon on the George Det
tr farm, one mile north of Wells
ville. Bruce Detter a son, was the
first to discover the blaze, while en
gaged in cleaning the stables. John
Deardorff, a neighbor, also saw the
smoke and came to the rescue. The J
two men removed the larger live
stock, but were too late to get the j
hogs out of the pen, which was also
destroyed. The fire originated In n
lot of cut fodder in the barn, where
several children were at play. The
loss is estimated at about $5,000.
About a year ago a house on the
same premises was destroyed by fire,
and the origin of that blaze was

New Cases of Typhoid
Fever Reported at Enola
Enola, l'u., Nov. 19.—Several new
oases of typhoid fever were reported
over the week-end. according to Dr.
E. Carl Welrlck, the railroad physi

addition to the new cases reported
there are also a few suspects. The
epidemic was greatly exaggerated at
the outset, said Dr. Welrlck. There
are in all only about eighteen cases
with the new ones recently reported.
When the fever lirst broke out it was
reported that more than twenty peo
ple were suffering from the disease.
As a matter of precaution officials
of the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany have issued orders to its em
ployes not to use any water furnish
ed in Enola for drinking purposes on
the engines and about the shops.
The present outbreak of typhoid
is the third within a year..Last No
vember about twenty-five cases were
reported and in March it broke out
again.

Scots Paid a Glowing * !
Tribute by Dr. Mudge
"God commands America to bring
into this world an Iron-clad rule
which shall make the world safe for
democracy, and democracy safe for
the world," said Dr. Lewis S. Mudge

her destinies." "Driven from Scot
land by oppression, and taxation,
these Scots helped much in the mak
ing of the American republic," he
