Stirring addresses were made by John Burke, treasurer of the United States, and Gilford Pin chot. A message was sent to President Wilson, in which tliw grange, speak ing to:* its (18,000 members, promised "tin best there i,s in us of our man power to make the earth produce its products in this, our country's great est crisis." The message continued: We further represent that the brewery interests of this State are controlled by German adherents and sympathizers and tliu output of their breweries is one of the chief causes of food scarcity, inefl.ciency of labor, impaired factory products and the crippling of the mining industry, which, in turn, is holding up the other industries and causing women and children to suffer for want of fuel to warm theft* homes. Our schools are being closed and our children are being stunted physically and intellectually in order that the corpulent German sympathizer, through his brewery interest, may carry on his business of destruction of manhood and patriotism. Appre ciating the fact that your knowledge cf these Questions is as broad as ours, we make bold to say that the time has arrived when further manufac ture of brewed products should cease. I". S. Treasurer Burke Cliccrcd Cheers greeted the declaration of United States Treasurer Burke that 4 Germany cannot be starved; she must be conquered." Mr. Burke pro ct eiled: "Those who know tell us that men higher up in Germany are already talking about the next war. There will be no next war.

R. L. Potter, a veteran of the Canadian Army who served on the western front from the beginning of the war until assigned to recruiting work in this country. The Canadian troops have proved themselves most dar ing and adept in going over the top of tbo Hun trenches in France and Flanders and carrying all before them In attack. Th 6 first of these photographs show troops at that exciting moment when the order to fix bayonets has been given. This command is with held until the very last second be cause it was found that no matter what secrecy was observed the Ger mans found out when the rush was to start. With a shout of command the unit simultaneously plunges up the home trench and as will be seen In the picture, some are instantly shot down before even reaching the top. Once over the men rush forward, generally over wire entangled fields, fore the rush artillery from every For perhaps twenty-four hours be side has been concentrated on the immediate German lines. There is no hope of surprising the enemy but the art consists in isolating him with barrage fire. The sweep of artillery generally carries away the barbed wire entanglements and often tanks are used. When the assaulters have reached some distance the barrage is shifted back of the German advance in or der to cut oft reserves. Ho accumu lated is this fire that a shell a min ute has been known to be dropped on every square foot. Reading Heiress and Tramp Organizer Will Honeymoon at Home Reading, Pa.. Dec. 14.—That In his career as a hobo he has ridden on every part of a freight car except the number," was the declaration mad by J. W. Schweitzer, who, on Saturday, married Miss Caroline K. Steinmetz, Reading heiress, who pos sesses SIOO,OOO in her own name. "1 have ridden on the road rods, on everything of the freight train but the numbers. Why, 1 .lust finished a 3,800-mile trip across the country on the rods, and it took thirteen days." Mr. Schweitzer whimsically de scribed himself as a tramp and the organizer of an association of tramps. They are of the chosen, with whom the millionaire, J. Eads How, has associated himself In a communion of altruistic, thought tie-walking, hand out lunching spirits. Mr. Schweitzer is, or has been, a tramp, and his wife knows it, and knew it In advance. Mr. Schweitzer, temporarily of Read ing, is ruling spirit of the Baltimore group. He is secretary of the organ ization there and one of the contrib utors to their nickel monthly maga zine, Hobo News. Mrs. Schweitzer threatens to become a writer for the publication. The couple are doing no honey mooning travel. "Oh, no, we do our honeymooning right here," the bride said. "Only the hoi polloi go on hon eymoon trips. They do it to get ac quainted and to do their first fight ing. You know it has ever been con sidered a sin to be different. Well, I'm different." Schweitzer says that probably his wife's relatives would see no fault in the novel union just consummuated, if they know that "he has an uncle worth $500,000, and that I myself am a mechanical engineer, able to earn $1,200 to $5,000 a year. I have done It, and I'm not exactly paralyzed yet. Let them caH me a tramp; that's Just what I am. I've had thousands in my possession at times, and have known, too, what it was to be penni less. Like my wife, I've been blessed, or cursed, with a spine of my own, and I propose to live as I please, go where I please, work when I please, and stop when I please. The world is a big place and there is much to see and learn. And I have sls, so I should worry. We hope to try some amateur theatricals, in time."
