YANKS FIRE LAST
SHOT AND THEN GO
CALMLYTO LUNCH
Scenes of Rejoicing Along the
American Front When the
Cease Firing Word Comes
With the American Army on the
Sedan Front. Nov. 12.—After the
final salvos at 11 o'clock yesterday
from thousands of guns along the
French front, the Americans went
calmly to lunch. The Germans
hurled a few shells into Verdun just
before 11 o'clock.
On the entire American front from
the Moselle to-the region of Sedan
there was artillery activity in the
morning, all the batteries preparing
for the final salvos.
At many batteries the artillerists
joined hands, forming a long line as
the lanyard of the final shot. There
were a few seconds of silence as the
shells shot through the heavy mist.
Then the gunners cheered.
Flags Are liaised
American flags were raised by the
soldiers over their dugouts and guns
and at the various headquarters.
Northeast of Verdun the Ameri
can Infantry besart to advance at 9
o'clock after artillery preparation in
the direction of Ornes.
The German artillery responded
How Old Are You
By Your Hair?
You may be thirty in years, but
if you are bald-headed, gray, or
your hair is dry, brittle, scraggly and
ugly-looking, people will surely take
you to be many years older.
When your hair becomes faded,
dry, streaked and scraggly. when it
falls out badly and new hair cannot
grow, the roots should be immedi
ately vitalized and properly nour
ished. To do this quickly, safely
and at little expense, there is noth
ing so effective as Parisian sage
(liquid form) which you can get at
Kennedy's Drug Store and all good
drug and toilet counters.
It's guaranteed to abolish dan
druff—stop scalp itch and falling
hair and promote a new growth or
money refunded. It's in great de-;
mand by discriminating women be
cause it makes the hair so soft, lus
trous, easy to arrange attractively
and appear heavier than it really is.
A massage with Parisian sage is
a real delight—easy to use, not
sticky or greasy, and delicately per
fumed —an antiseptic liquid free
from dangerous ingredients and
guaranteed not to color the hair or
scalp. If you want good looking
hair and plenty of it, by all means
use Parisian sage—a little attention
now insures beautiful hair for years
to come. —adv.

WAR-TORN LANDS
NEED FOOD, SAYS
CALL
Russia Faces Starvation; Ylil
lions Must Be Fed From
American Fields
Washington, Nov. 2.—The nation's
obligatio nand opportunity to serve
stricken humanity in war torn
Europe by" helping to provide sus
tenance until the next harvest will
demand , further sacrifice® of the
American people. Food Administra
tor Hoover declared to-day in an
address at a conference here of state
food administrators.
Russia Faces Starvation
Conditions of famine exist in
Europe. Mr. Hoover said, that will
be "belond our powers to remedy"
even with the carrying out of the
I plan to ship from America twenty
million tons of foodstuffs during the
next year. In northern Russia alone
he declared, there are forty million
people who have but little chance of
obtaining food this winter. Mil
lions of others throughout Europe,
he said, who can be reached must be
fed.
"This being the new world situa
tion. created by the collapse of the
war," Mr. Hoover continued, "the
prime changes in our polcies on to
day's outlook can be summarized:
Conservation Must Continue
"That we may now advantageous
ly abandon the use of substitutes In
our wheat bread; that we will still
require economy and elimnation of
waste in its consumption; that for
the present we need onservation in
butter and condensed milk; that ulti
mately we must extend this to all
the fats.
"We can contemplate, at the most,
maintaining fully three pounds per
month of sugar per person of house
hold sugar and on the present out
look and we can by the availability
of Java sugars to Europe begin at
once to relax more restraints on
sugar pending some change in Eu
ropean policies.
Spectre of Famine Haunts
"There is one policy which cannot
change, and that is the vital neces
realize that the spectre of famine
abroad now haunts the abundance of
our table at home.
"We have now to consider a new
world situation in food. We have
to frankly to survey Europe. A Eu
rope of which a large part is either
in ruins or in social conflagration; a
Europe with degenerated soils and
depleted herds; a Europe with the
whole of its population on rations
or varying degrees of starvation and
large numbers who have been un
der the German heel actually starv
ing."

HARMS RUSSIA
[Continued from First I'agc.]
authority of government in the face
of such a desperate winter as now
approaches; a winter that 100,000,-
000. people face with little food and
starvation at their elbow."
No Traitors
The Russian people were not
traitors to the Allied cause, XJr. Col
ton said. They began the war with
all but two of their ports of entry
closed and means of transportation
from the outside limited to fcvo sin
gle-track railroads, one from Arch
angle, closed six months in the j'ear,
and another 6,000 miles long from
Vladivostok. Three men to one rifle
was the proportion of arms to the
soldiers, he said, and 5,000,000 is the
manpower low to Russia as the re
sult of the war.
The Bolshevtki rob blind men and
cripples, said Mr. Colton. He cited
one case of a blind man who lives
off the proceeds of a small piece of.
land he owned who was called be
fore the Bolshevik council and de
prived of his little acreage which
went to some covetous citiien for
nothing, because he could work it.
Nobody may own any land unless he
can work it. Faetrles and all man
ner of industries were turned over to
the workmen with the result that
nobody was in charge, nobody was
able to buy raw material, nobody
had money for wages, there "was no
market for the few goods that were
turned out. The workmen were far
worse off than they were before and
they soon left the factories, thou
sands of which are idle or in ruins
aU over the land, and the people are
starving, not only for lack of money
to buy food, but because each peas
ant, being unable to sell his wheat,
raised only enough for his own im
mediate family.
"The majority of the people are
densely ignorant: 85 per cent, can't
reafl or write; they are intensely de
sirous of freedom, but they don't
know how to exercise it." 'They
look to America as their guiding star
and hope we will do something to
place their government on a par with
ours. The Bolshevik government Is
I not the government of the masses,
and it is nearing its end. Mr. Colton
brought out of Russia a letter to the
wife of a Bolshevik leader who bade
her good-by, saying that they had
staked all on a desperate* idea re
pugnant to the masses of the people,
that their failure is in sight and
that when they go down all the
leaders will lose their lives.
Mr. Colton said that America must
go to the aid of Russia. American
troops in Russia must soon be in
creased. he said, becaluse the Rus
sians want American soldiers to ac
company those of other nations com
ing in for the reason that from the
Americans they are always sure of
a "square deal." •"**
Edward W. Bolt Speaks
Edward W. Bok, editor of the
Ladies' Home Journal, who has been
on the French front, opened his dis
course with an anecdote concerning
the passage overseas of an im
mense American armada of Ameri
can troops, starting from . .ew York.
"In front of us," he said, "rose a
great ball of Are, on the right were
rows of destroyers on the left were
rows of destroyers. In front was a
battleship and behind was a battle
ship. Between were three large col
umns of transports. Those men on
those transports, he said, were Jews,
Protqptapts and Catholics, to the
folks back home. But to us on
board they were ull Americans—set
out to prove to the world the power
of right over might.
Speaking of the unity of all creeds
overseas, he told how in a Y hut one
day the secretary asked the Catholic
priest to referee a bout. The priest
thought that as one of the boxers
was a Catholic he would be preju
diced, so he went outside and got a
referee. He was the Rabbi, and a
better referee never refereed a bout,"
said Mr. Bok.
Mr. Bok declared that as chairman
of the United War Work campaign,
he is a Jaw, a Catholic and a Prot
estant.
"I am even a Salvation Army
lassie," he said.
He declared that the only func
