THE STATE OF MAINE
MUST FULFILL HER QUOTA
The emblem of Maine says:—“I Lead.”
But Maine is not in the lead today, in her duty to
our country and the cause we fought for. «
More than half the States in the Union can say
today, “Dirigo: I Lead, Maine Follows.”
In War Savings Stamp sales, Maine today is below
the average for the entire country.
For the sake of the fair name of
this Pine Tree State, and her
honorable standing in the past,
this condition must be remedied
before the end of the year.
Fulfill your Pledg'e-the BOYS have

I deuce of the Associated I’ressi—The
seven American soldiers who yes
j terdav received Hritish decorations
, for gallantry in fighting the P.olshe
viki along Vologda railway front

citat ions.
Lieutenant <5. H. Horse, of Mil
j ford, N. 11.. was awarded the Mili
tary t'ross for having "reconnoiter
c.l enemy positions and brought back
most useful information which was
j greatly instrumental in tlie success
of operations on <>ct. 14.” The clta
i lion adds that “since joining the
! column Lieutenant Hee.se frequently
j has shown great daring, loyalty,
pertinacity, and devtion, and given
] a line example to his troops."
Sergeant \. O. Hayden, of Athens,
i f*., received tlie Distinguished Con
duct Medal for the operations on
< tct. 14. Ihs citation says that he
j reconnoitcred the ground behind the
enemy's rear positions of which the
I Hritisli commander had no previous
knowledge. It adds that lie always
displayed great Initiative, coolness,
devotion, and courage, and was a
fine example to all thoops.
Private C. F. Garrett of Kalama
zoo, Mich . received the Military
Medal. His citation says that, hav
; ing no cover, and “without thought
..f personal danger he discharged Ills
duties with coolness and pertinacity
' under exceptionally trying circum
stances getting an admirable exam
ple for all. Private Garrett al9o car
ried H A\'. Hickman, who was woun
ded, back to a place of safety tinder

i from the hands of the enemy.”
Private L. I„. Hopkins of Muir, Ky.,
was cited for the samereason as

Bulgaria Pleased By
Entrance Entente Fleet
Into Constantinople
Sofia. Bulgaria, Dee. 26—(Corres
pondence of The Associated Press)—*
Bulgarian political leaders profess to
be gratified by the entrance of Hie
Entente fleet into Constantinople ami
express the belief that it assures an
equitable and reasonable solution of
the interminable question of who
shall control the Straits of the Dar
danelles. This problem has been the
constant nightmare of most of the
Bulgarian states, particularly of Bul
garia, Itumania and Greece. These
countries always have considered the
possibility of. Russian occupation of
Constantinuople to be a serious men
ace to their own national existence.
'J’liis fear was one of the causes
which led Bulgaria to take sides with
I the Central Powers in the war. Lat
| or when Russia .abandoned lmr ex
! elusive claim to Constantinople, Ru
| mania’s entry into the war on the :
| side of (he Entente was facilitated.
Political circles in Bulgaria are
' profoundly impressed by the giddy
rapidity with which events of far
1 reaching international importance |
now arc transpiring. The folly of
the policy pursued hv the former
King Ferdinand and his government
in Bulgaria has been brought home in
|a striking manner to Bulgarians by
fli** recent developments. The same
[ feeling is expected to prevail among i
the young Turks, who preferred to !
i trust Germany rather than Great !
| Britain and France although, it is I
; said, these Powers and Russia gave j
to the Portea formal declaration i
guaranteeing the integrity of Turkey j
if she would remain neutral in the
war.
The great mass of the Turks, as !
j well as all other nationalities in \
! Turkey arc said to he overjoyed to j
! witness the termination of the rule ;
' ol the governing clique in that eoun- j
try and the success of the Entente :
powers. They now realize, it is said, i
that Germany cared nothing for the j
i condition of the Turks hut was sole- |
ly concerned with her own commor- j
rial and industrial schemes affecting
Turkey.
The general feeling of tranquility
has succeeded the recent troublous
times and political parties replace
confidence in the ability of the pres
ent democratic ministry of Bulgariu
j to extricate the Country from its
present condition.
The organization of a society in '
Sofia to promote the idea of a Bal
kan Confederation is criticized here
on the grodnd that it is premature.

ACHIEVEMENT OF

J.ondon. Doc. 26.— via Montreal.—
The story of the achievements of the
British submarine in war time would
bo Incomplete without the official re
port of the sinking of the K-14 off
the Dardanelles early in 191S with the
loss of her commander, I.lout. Com
mander Geoffrey White, and ail cx
cop1 seven of the crew.
The fci-14 left Mudros on the eve
ning of Jan. 27 and proceeded up the
Dardanelles to search for the Goeben.
After diving under submarine nets,
all ■ found that the Goeben hud left
a few hours previously, so Con*
mandei While turned back, keeping a
sharp lookout for enemy craft.
A torpedo was fired at the ship
which carried the Goeben's ammuni
tion, causing a heavy explosion which
extinguished the submarine's lights
and sprung the fore hatch. T,faking
badly the submarine rose to the sur
face. The forts immediately opened
a heavy fire but did not hit her. She
submerged J CO feet and continued on
her course, but becoming unsteady,
she was brought to the. surface again.
Heavy tire immediately opened on
both sides of the straits find a shell
hit the hull, destroying the upper
steeling gear. A survivor says: "Or
dobs were given to steer from below
and we r;> , the gauntlet for half tit
hour, only a few shots hitting us. The
captain, seeing it was hopeless to es
cape, ran toward shore. His last
words were:
“ 'We are in God's hands.’ Only a
few seconds later 1 looked for him
and saw his body, mangled by shell
lire, roll into the water and go un
der. The last shell hit the starboard
side of our boat, killing all near it,
1 believe.”
The submarine soon afterwards ran
into a sandbank and the Turks pick
ed up the survivors.

Cattle Buying For
Swift & Company
Swift & Company buys more than 9000 head of cattle
on an average, every market day.
Each one of them is “sized up” by experts.
Both the packer's buyer and the commission salesman must
judge what amount of meat each animal will yield, and how fine it
will be. the grading of the hide, and the quantity and quality of the fat.
Both must know market conditions for live stock and meat
throughout the country. The buyer must know where the different
qualities, weights, and kinds of cattle can be best marketed as beef.
If the buyer pays more than the animal is worth, the packer loses
money on it. Ifhe offers less, another packer, or a shipper or feeder,
gets it away from him.
If the seller accepts too little, the live-stock raiser gets less than
he is entitled to. If he holds out for more than it is worth, he fails
to make a sale.
A variation of a few cents in the price per hundred pounds is a
matter of vital importance to the packer, because it means the
difference between profit and loss.
