Prisoners Say v Belgium and
Prance Are in Process of
Evacuation; Country Left
- Devastated.
With the Allied Armies in France
nd Belgium, Oct. 20. Reliable in
formation received from the other
sids, of the line indicates that the
German retreat will carry the enemy
back many miles, if not all the way
to Germany itself. Many prisoners
. captured on different parts of the
line declare Belgium and France are
in process of evacuation.
Guns from the Belgian coast are
known to have reached Antwerp, but
at the moment it' is not certain
whether they have gone beyofod that
ity. Air material has been trans
ferred from Ghent to Brussels. De
tailed reports are coming in respect
ing several lines of German defenses,
but none of these lines seem to be
more than temporary. The. princi
pal line is reported to be along the
Selzaete-Ghent canal and the Scheldt
river.
Forty bridges have been thrown
across the Meuse in the neighbor
hood of Huy, southwest of Liege,
and the source from which this in
formation is derived says that these
are in preparation,, for the retreat of
the Germans behinM their own fron
tier. Pledge Violated.
The country from which the Ger
mans are withdrawing offers strik
ing proof of, German brutality and
destructiveness. When they retired
from a towrt-the civilians were in
formed that they need have no fear
of remaining there at the town
would not be shelled. On this
promise many civilians remained;
but the Germans dropped numerous
shells into the place and several
civilians, among them women, were
wounded. This crime, has been add
ed to those already chalked up
against the Germans by the Brit
ish army.
Preliminary reconnaisances in
vast stretches of recaptured terri
tory show that in additionyio the
destruction of military establish
ments the Germans before depart
ing demolished every " factory and
air mines. In many houses the
Germans placed "booby" traps and
infernal machines, which apparently
were designed as much for civilians
as for soldiers, according to the of
''ficial belief. v '
The British armies have had pre
vious experience with such appli
ances and have therefore not been
caught. Hundreds of thousands of
civiMns are in the towns where
the allied troops are operating and
advancing, and hundreds have been
released from each town liberated
by the advance. Th presence of
these civilians necessitates the great
est care in the handling of shells
and bombs, and it is probable tht
the Germans have left them behind
just for this purpose.
Bridges Blown, Up.
All the bridges have been blown
up by the retreating enemy, and be
cause of this the people of Turcoing
V and Roubaix are experiencing some
difficulty in getting food. Supplies
ar. now being shipped into Lille for
the large population there.
' The Germans are also leaving the
country strewn with land mines.
The main Lille-Tournai road, as an
instance, has been mined every 40
meters. , The civilians of Roubaix
say hat before the Germans, de
stroyed some of the factories in the
towns they removed lh machinery
... and took it with them.
More reports have been received
of mutinies In the German army.
The revolt movement leems' to be
spreading: ,
Along the road of retirement the
houses in most places have been
found to be intact. But the Ger
mans apparently could not resist the
temptation to loot, carrying off
cloth of every description. Window
shades and in fact anything made
of cotton or wool were removed.

War Work Council; John R, Mott,
general secretary of the saine, and
George W. Perkins, actively iden

The record of the Salvation Army
is extraordinary, both here and
abroad. There are more than 90,-
000 Salvationists In the Allied
Armies. It is impossible to say
how many fathers in the Salvation
Army have sons on the battle front
Col. William R. Peart, Chief Sec
retary, has a son, Lieut Herbert L.
Peart, in the Eighteenth Infantry.
Lieut. Peart recently received the
Carnegie medal and $500 for hero
ism. He went overboard in a rough
sea and saved several lives.
Three Sons In Service
Of th War Camp Community
Service, which takes care of all the
soldiers and sailors in this country
and most of these returning from
abroad, a noteworthy example is
that of William E. Hopkins, a direc
tor of the W. C'. C. S., who has
three sons in the service. Many
of the other fathers connected with
he War Camp Community Service,
among whom are Dr. C. F. Stim
son, are proud to have sons in the
4rmy or Navy.
In addition to the sons of many
other officials, three of the direc
tors of the Jewish Welfare Board
have sons in the service. Louis
Marshall's son, Sergeant James
Marshall, has been in France
for more than a year. Richard
Charles Hartman, Company Com
mander of the Third Regiment at
the Pelham Bay Naval Training
Station is a son of Charles Hart
man; David William Unterberg,
son of Israel Unterberg, another di.
rector, is finishing his training at
Pelham.
Although fast here, the American
Library Association is far from
being last in the number of fathers
who have sons in uniform. Dr.
Frank P. Hill, chairman of the Sec
ond Library War Fund, speaks for
all the others. He was asked to
tell in 100 words how Jt felt to
have a son in the Army. "I don't
need 100 words," he said, with em
phasis. "Three will be enough. It
feels bully."
Allied Soldiers in
Valley of the Jordan
Withstand Much Heat
Jerusalem. Sept. 30. Allied sol
diers in the valley of the Jordan
know now how really unkind were
persons who, in pre-war days,
"wished them inJericho." To these
fighting men, Jericho and its dust
covered environs mean heat, flies,
mosquitoes and snakes, mildly ad
vertised by the Turks in this mes
sage set up opposite the British
lines: "Don't fear an offensive from
us; we will come over later when
you are all dead."
This summer, day after day, army
thermometers along the Jordan reg
istered from 105 to 12S. Yet with
scarcely a breeze, and these dust
laden, the Australian and New Zea
land horsemen holding these lines,
bringing from a temperate climate
a reserve of health and vigor lack
ing in the natives, withstood the
ordeal. It is the second or third
summer that tells.
The flies and mosquitoes of the
valley know no pity. In the early
days of the fighting, when it was
impossible to take the necessary
sanitary precautions, they bred in
myriads, out now pools of stagnant
water have been eliminated and
large tracts of scrub burned. " As
a result, the number of malaria
cases has been surprisingly, low.
Of the minor evils, the snakes
are the worst, but due to the pre
cautions taken by officers and men,
casualties from snake bites have
been comparatively insignificant de
spite the numerous reptiles and
their venomous species.
One captured Turk had been at
tacked and bitten by a serpent four
feet long, and as he lay on his
cot in a British hospital, he told
how he had strangled the reptile
and then fainted. His nerves were
shattered by the incident, and med
ical officers said it would be years
before they were again normal.

good-byes of friends and relatives
must be said outside of the station.
Two reasons are given for this
order: First, that the crowds 'that
would otherwise gather there make
it almost impossible to get the
trains out on time, and, second, the
danger of spreading influenza,

Veteran Jack Root Is
Trying Comeback;
Now Army Instructor
San Francisco, Oct. 19. Jack
Root, who retired from the ring
more than 10 years ago, is coming
back. The famous veteran has been
appointed boxing instructor at an
aviation station in California. Since
he retired from the squared circle
Root has been living in the north
west and hasmade quite a piece of
money in the moving picture busi
ness. The last important battle Root
engaged in was with Marvin Hart.
The promoters of the contest ad
vertised the show as a "world's
championship" affair and engaged
Jim Jeffries to referee. It was held
in an ope it' air arena at Reno, Nev.,
on July 3, 190S. The public was in
formed before the contest that Jef
fries, who was then retired cham
pion, would turn his title over to
the winner, but when Hart knocked
out Root in the twelfth round Jeff
failed to give the victor his title.
When the public learned that Hart
did not receive . Jeff 'sjitle they de
manded an explanation.
A few weeks after the battle the
retired, champion announced that he
hadjio intention of giving his title
to fflVwinner of the bout, and he
added that the promoters advertised
the fact that he would award the
championship honor to the winner
without his knowledge.
Root is now 42 years bid and his
last appearance in the ring was in
1906. Frank Russell was his op
ponent and Root was returned the
winner after battling lOJiard rounds.

and has done much war work.)
"P
CHAPTER 1.
Old Miser Hardfist.
RINCESS PEGGY there's a
man down the street that I
want to thrash, and I'm not
big enough to do it alone. Will you
help me?"
This astonishing request made
Peggy sit up straight in the porch
swing where she had been drowsing
over a book. Before her, his eyes
fairly blazing with indignation, stood
Billy Belgium.
"Why, gracious me, you know I
can't do that," gasped Peggy. "It
isn't ladylike to fight."
"You'll not have to do any of the
real fighting. I'll lasso him with
a rope and all you'll have to do will
be to hang on to the rope while I
thump him."
This sounded real exciting t Pejir
gy, but she wasn't going to rush
blindly into a row unless there was
good ieason for itj .
"Who are you going to thrash and
what's he done?" she asked.
"He is rich old Jonathan Hard
fist who owns that beautiful country
place just outside of town,"replied
Billy, doubling up his fists-. "I'm go
ing to thrash him because he refuses
to help defend America by buying
Liberty bonds., He says he can
make more money using his spare
funds in his own private business."
"Isn't that mean of him!" exclaim
ed Peggy. "I've heard father say
that he owes every cent he has to
the opportunities given him in this
free country when he came from
abroad years ago. And now he will
not do his part in keeping the coun
try free."
J'Will you help me thrash him?"
again demanded Billy.
"Of course I will," replied Peggy.
"He deserves it. Are you sure he
will not buy?"
Down the garden path came Jona
A than Hardfist
"He told me so himself. You
know I am selling bonds because
I'm a Belgian refugee. . I told him
how the Huns robbed the Belgians,
how they wronged them, how they
killed them.. And all he answered
was, 'We're safe enough over here
in America." As if any place in
this world would be safe if we don't
win this war."
"Let's hurry 1" exclaimed Peggy.
.
Tfiut iiinj be we'd "better take a big
:1Tsi: -i - t--l
policeman aiung.- iu ncip inane a
good job Of it." . .
"Huhl The policeman -might stop
us. We'll not take any chances that
way." . N . f" " . i
' Billy had a clothes line which-he
.-v7 .. L
intended to use as a lasso. He tied
a noose in this as he and Peggy
hurried along toward Jonathan
Hardfist's surburban estate.
"We will creep into his garden
and wait until he comes along," ex
claimed Billy. "He walks a lot in
his garden thinking up schemes to
make money."
As they entered the Hardfist
property, crawling through a hedge,
Peggy gasped at its beauty. There
were wide stretches of lawn, charm
ing flower gardens, thriving patches
of vegetables, a great palace-like
house and various other buildings,
including stables, garages, and ser
vants quarters. It seemed to her
that Mr. Hardfist ought to be will
ing to lend America all he could to
keep this fsafe.
Suddenly a voice stopped 'the
children.
"Ask' him again if 'he will help
America protect him and all the
nation."
The command came from a statue
standing on a high pedestal above
them.
"It's Liberty," whispered Billy
Belgium in an awed voice. "I saw
her statue as I entered the Land of
the Free."
"Yes, I am the Liberty spirit,"
answered the statue. "Appeal to
him in my name."
Down the gar'Jen path came Jona
than Hardfist, his face set in a
severe frown. Billy Belgium, obey
ing the Liberty spirit, met him.
"In 'the name of Liberty, I beg
you, Mr. Hardfist to lend your
money to i the Government."
"Get our of here, you impudent
scamp, or I'll turn the dogs loose on
you!"
"To protect your own property,
lend a part of your money;" urged
Billy.
"My property is safe enough. The
war can never reach us."
"He must see and feel to know."
cried the Liberty Spirit. "He shall
see and feel!" v
Instantly the earth- beneath their
feet gave a great shake in a
moment there came another shake.
Then the air se'emed to be filled
with a great pounding roar.
"Cannon 1". cried Billy Belgium,
his face going white. Quickly he
darted up a ladder leading to. a look
out in a tree. He gave one fright
ened look all around. "The Ger
mans," he shouted. "We 'are in hte
midst of a battle." - .
(Tomorrow will be told how Peggy.
Billy and Johathap Hardfist get a
startling surprise.)."

"Hungary is in harmony with the

"Hungary must be completely in4

"The general franchise must be in

President Wilson's principles."
The draft of the address in its
preliminaries states that the final
result of the war is apt to endan

concludes with the demand that in
view of the danger of invasion the
Hungarian troops must be brought
back to Hungary and all "foreign

"We have losFthe war and we

Those men who heretofore have
championed the policy of strength
