Aay from home and in many In

fcoy learned by dear experience that
friend In need is a friend indeed,"
According to the reports brought
fetck from "over there" by lhofe ho
were in position to do some of the
boys a turn when it was needed and
that the doughboy fully realized that
uch friendship meant to him, as
veil as that he is naturally of hon
est make-up Is evidenced from the
following report recently made by
two Salvation Army workers, Just
back from France:
Borrowers ....Boys of 121st Artillery

of Doughboys
A No. 1
Commandant and Mrs. J. M. Hale
ef The Salvation Army returned
from twenty months of work in
France thoroughly satisfied that the
American doughboy is honest.
"We were with either the artillery
or engineers during our entire stay
and the soldiers we met were a
quare and high-hearted set of men,"
adl the commandant. "Some of
them were chronically broke and
teady borrowers but they always
paid their debts.
"When their pay envelopes were
late they were out of money and
came to us. We loaned 20,000 francs
to one regiment alone and it was all
repaid but 40 francs. These would
cave been paid had we gone out to
collect them for I am sure the boys
who borrowed simply, forgot.
"The lads would come and say to
toy wife or me,
" 'Ma. (or if I was there 'Dad') 1
need a hundred francs. Here's my I.
O. V.'
"And they received the money.
When the ghost walked-they would
come to us first and take up their
paper, as they called it. We never
dunned them and I must say they
never even tried to walk on the other
aide of the road if they owed us
money and had not paid. Instead
they would say 'Dad, 1 was short but
U1 make good next time.'
"I know our experience was the
ame as that of other Salvationists
and out of probably over 1,000,000
francs loaned in the aggregate the
loss was not over 1,000, if it was that
much. More than that I believe if
any of the delinquents read this
they'll send in what they owe.
"They were a square lot of fine,
clean-cut, manly boys."
Commandant Hale declares that
those who complain of the H. C. of
L had better not go to France these
days.
"Eggs are $1.80 a dozen and chick
ens, old hens, cost between $2.50 and
$3.00 Teach, regardless of weight,"
Commandant Hale remarked. "Soap
that sells here for ten cents a bar
brings forty-two cents over there. A
cantaloupe that would cost twenty
cents in Chicago costs $1.40 in
France. Last fall turkey was $1.15
. pound and not good at that.
"Clothes run from three to ten
times higher than in this country.
In fact the only cheap necessity is
vegetables. The French are getting
all they can for everything they sell.

$1,000 GAME OF
BIGGEST GAME OF THE SEASON T.0 BE FLAYED IN WESTERN NEBRASKA, WILL BE PLAYED AT THE FAIR
GROUNDS, ALLIANCE
SUNDAY, SEPT. 21st.
ANGORA ALLIANCE
BOTH LINE-UPS TO BE, MAN FOR MAN, AS PLAYED IN -LABOR DAY GAME IN ALLIANCE. EACH TEAM IS AL
LOWED ONE SUBSTITUTE
Alliance's base ball taem is stronger than ever. Each evening they are out on the diamond keeping themselves in shape
to administer to Angora a trimming much more decisive than the one of the first game. Pitcher Strubel will be here for the
game and when he turns loose there will be nothing' to it but " one, two, three." The other members of the team are "just ra
rin' to go". Watch them dazzle their opponents in this big game.
The Angora team was defeated by Alliance on Labor Day, but still the boys imagine they have the best club. We know
they have some good ball players but -when it comes to being abble to trim Alliance "it can't be done". "Stub". Fenning,
who has been pitching for the sand hills gang will be on the mound for them in this game and Eddie McNulty will do the
receiving. They're going their best to get into perfect form for the contest.
FRANK NEWHOUSE, of Denver, will umpire thisjbig game.
Mr. Newhouse who is one of the sport writers for The Denver Post is also one of the be6t known amateur base ball um
pires in the middle 'west. During the Post tourney at Denver a couple weeks ago he umpired each and every game and was
later employed at Casper, Wyoming during the tournament. He allows no "rough stuff" and gives the teams only what is
earned. In this game he will be the sole and only judge and will direct the game in true major league style.
