By 1920 the government -will have ex- pended 'about 52,500,000,000 in con- 1 structing such ships.

Remain Seated. The people of this city -were given the opportunity of witnessing the pro- duction of \Oh Boy\ last night at the local playhouse, and they turned out en masse despite the inclement weath- er. The production was one of the best staged in this city in many months. The company and principals were en- cored time after time, proving that the audience was well pleased with their efforts. A sad climax to the production, how- ever, -was the manner in which aud- ence was upon its' feet and ready to leave the theatre before the drop of the final curtain. Such action on the part of the audience is discouraging to the players, and it is a practice which . deserves severe criticism. After a company of players have put forth their best efforts to please a cri- tical audience, it is rather discourag- ing to note the apparent lack of ap- preciation shown by the audience in leaving the theatre before the end of the performance. This same audience would not think of leaving a church service while the clergyman was still addressing his hearers, and no logical reason can be ascribed why they should leave the theatre before the end of the play. Theatregoers, you owe i t to the play- ers to remain seated until the drop of the final curtain, and to do otherwise shows bad taste and form, especially after they have endeavored so hard to please.

Many people have asked us lately why the National Army veterans as well as men who served in the Navy are not included in the welcome homo de- monstration and banquet which have been arranged in honor of Company D. We cannot see any logical reason for not inviting veterans of all branches of the service to enjoy the program which the committee in charge has • prepared for this occasion. It is not too late to do so and if there is not money enough on hand the people of the city may be relied to supply the deficiency. Not a few citizens say that they contributed to the home coming fund under the impression that National Army men as well as those who volunteered would be in- cluded and they now maintain, and rightly so, that thero should be no dis- crimination.

For the present suffice it to say that the Anti-Saloon League has abso- lutely nothing to do with any of these movements and has never, contemplat- ed any activity against tobacco and will not engage in any anti-tobacco movement. \The Anti-Saloon League has been able to marshall the forces upon a non-partisan and non-sectarian basis and bring about the legal prohibition of the liquor traffic because the leogus has confined itself to one thing and has refused to consider divisive is- sues. The Anti-Saloon League will have to bear the burden of marshall- ing the moral forces for the enactment and enforcement of legislation to carry the prohibition amendment fully into effect. This and the world move ment against alcohol are a full pro- gram for the league. \The reason why the liquor traffic has been prohibited is because the courts of last resort had decided that it was different from anything- else and had no constitutional rights and was the cause of most of the crime, in- sanity and pauperism. When the courts lay down the same proposition about tobacco it will be timj for the Anti-Saloon League to consider engag- ing in an anti-tobacco movement.\ Pneumatica is better than mustard, liniments, plasters or poultices for Near ralgia, Neuritis or any kind of PAIN or inflammation.

BUFFALO, March 28.—With ten boats placed for elevators, Buffalo's great Winter storage grain, fleet is practically cleaned up. By next week it is expected every grain carrier in th'e harbor will have been unloaded. Buffalo's grain fleet in number of freighters was the largest in the city's history. ' Some 117 ships held cargoes for lo- cal transfers at the close of navigation The elevators are well fixed, but at no time has there been any conges- tion. In fact, there has been a steady flow of grain to seaboard without ex- tra effort or confusion.

Our' army is coming back to these shores 1S,000 tons huskier than when it sailed overseas,* according to the April number of the Red Cross Mag- azine, which reveals, in an article on \Housekeeping in Khaki,\ why return- ed doughboys literally burst out of the clothing they left at home. The aver- age increase in weight in the Ameri- can army was 12 pounds to a man. This is due in very large measure, of course, to the seemingly limitless flow of wholesome foods' directed into the training camps and to France by the Quartermaster's Corps. \Secretary of War Baker is proud of this record,\ says the writer, David M. Hayes. \This war, he tells us, has been the healthiest in history. The test he applies is the number of deaths from disease. The best pre- vious record, 25 per thousand per year, was attained by the Germans in the Franco-Prussian war. Our record in this war was only eight per thous- and per year. Now whose is the credit for this embarrassing state of health among our troops? Answer: Largely the good housekeeping of our army.

Unofficial esti- mates put it at between 1,000,000 and 3,000,000, but police officers who were on duty and had an opportunity to gauge the crowd, said that it did not exceed SOO.OOO, if, indeed, it was. larg- er than GOO.OOOO. The line of march extended over five miles, and to have a crowd of SOO.- OOO it would be necessary to have 160,000 persons to the mile, or 8,000 to the block. Allowing sixteen inches per person along each block front, it would take a row twenity deep on each of the two sidewalks to make up a crowd of 8,000 to each block.' Al- though the crowd was denser than that in some spots, it averaged consider- ably less than twenty deep from Washington Arch to 3110th street. In fact, all along the Park, from Fifty- ninth to 110th street, tvhich was occu- pied by the official stand, with its' fourteen rows of seats, only 75,000 were accommodated, while, if the av- erage of 8,000 to the block had been maintained, it would have been necs- sary to seat 200,000 ini the stands. Worked out on a purely mathemati- cal basis it is probable that not more than 750,000 persons saw the parade, even allowing for the thousands who viewed tire spectacle from windows and roof tops—and from the three aeroplanes that hovored over the ave- nue.—New York Evening Post.

But the reasoning didn't work out, because the major premise is a man and not a wild woman. Had the com- pelling eyes of girlhood been on trial there is small doubt that tho jury would have added another acquital to the long list-of Chicago wild women. You can't expect a jury to wax very enthusiastic over an elderly male, a bit puffy, bald, and lacking the eyes that \draw'you and compel your sym- pathy.\ Of course the defendant can take only indifferent solace out of the fact that he is a male.
