SUCH a hue and cr.v has pone JP
all over the'country and so many
sensational stories have come to
the ears of the anxious, that we are in
great danger of being misinformed as to
true conditions, by well meaning but
over zealous workers, says Sylvia North
in an article in the Mother’s Magazine
for April, dealing w ith life in the offi
cers’ training camps.
It is a regrettable fact that when one
exceptional case is found among a thou
sand men, the publicity it is given con
demns all, but the sensible mother real
izes that where thousands of men are
assembled they must necessarily come
from all walks and conditions of file,
and every phase of human nature be rep
resented. The mere donning of a uni
form and the pledge to respect and honor
all that it stands tor, together with the
severe tests, physical and mental, ap
plied by the government before gran.ing
the privileke of wearing that uniform,
will not immediately make a weak man
strong, nor a strong man perfect, so de
spite all the instructions and enlighten
men begun in the officers’ training
camps, still being successfully continued
for each private in every cantonment
throughout the land.

Business, Declare Makers
Washington. AnHl 22. — Although
more than 1,000,000 young men who
might otherwise have bought straw
hats have been supplied with campaign
headgear by the government, there is
no indication of severe disturbances in
the straw hat industry, in the opinion
of the tariff commission, which today
announced the, result of a preliminary
survey. The decrease in sales to men
will be compensated in part by higher
prices for women’s hats, which are
now “made of more expensive mate

When King George of England Asked My Opinion .
Of American Soldiers, I Told Him That the Canadians
And Americans Were the Same Sort of People
With the Same Customs And Same Ability”
—SAPPER JOHN BOUCHER.
By dolly dalhymflr
,EN 1 hart successfully
m passed for 48 years of age,
^ and had served for eight
I months with the engineering corps on
| the Flanders front and was just begin
j ning to feel that I was safely installed
in the army, I came to grief through an
I officer finding out that my real age was
73, and so I was shipped back to Cana
I da. It was in London on my way home
that I was sent for by King George V
of England, who said he wanted to shake
1 hands with the oldest man who was
wearing the English khaki in the present
war and it was during this audience
with the King that he asked my opinion
of the Americans as soldiers, and if 1
thought they could stand the test with
so little preliminary training. I stood
attention to the King during all this un/ll
he said: ‘Be seated; you are too old a
man to stand.’ Of course I obeyed and
then I replied to his question about
Americans, by asking one; Your Ma
jesty,’ said I, ‘Do you think the Cana
dians have stood the test?’ He replied:
’They have made a place for themselves
in history.’ ’Then, your Majesty,’ said
I, ‘The Americans will do the same thing,
because the Canadians and the Ameri
cans are the same sort of people with
the same customs and the same ability.
The only difference between them is that
they live on different sides of the Great
Lakes. They will stand the test just
as the Canadians have stood it.”
As I walked down the street yester
day, about 10 feet behind Sapper Boucher,
with whom I had an appointment at the
Jefferson a few minutes before the ini
tial matinee of the great war picture,
•‘America at War,” which is being shown
there this week, I mentally noted the
splendid physique and supercarriage of
the man ahead of me; Sapper Boucher
walks with a spring and a swing and
a bearing that is unbelievable for a man
of his age—73; I won’t say 73 years, but
as our good friend, Dr. Oliver Wen
dell Holmes, put it “73 years young,”
for that, indeed, is what any one would
think of Mr. Boucher; his figune is as
erect and straight as a boy of ‘-5; his
bright, twinkling eyes are filled with the
courage of youth as well as with the
wisdom of age; his slightly gray-tinged
hair about his temples and his ruddy
skin proclaim youth rather than age—and
that he is a born fighter, is readily ob
served, especially when he speaks of his
hatred of the Germans, for then all the
vitality and vigor of his big manly body
are dominant in his expressive face and
his gesture as well as words.
“When I said in a city not far away
from here a few nights ago, some things
I thought about the Germans,” Mr.
Boucher observed, “a man said to me as
we left the theatre: ‘You were pretty
rough; didn’t you see that there were a
lot of Germans in the audience?’ Said
I: ‘I don't give a damn if they were;
I wish there’d been that many more, so
I could have told them, too, how I felt
toward them.
“And you can’t blame me. uear iau>,
he apologized, presently, “for using such
language as I do or feeling as L do about
the Huns; if you’d been ‘over there’ as
I have and you could see and know the
vile brutalities and atrocities committed
by those people, you'd swear, too. I
can’t even mention to you, a lady, nor
to an audience where always you’ll find
a large number of ladies, the things
I would like to of how the Germans have
treated women; they are unspeakable;
impossible. But some of them should be
known. Take, for instance, one little
incident, a Bed Cross nurse was caring
for two others—poor, pitiful women being
brought in from the firing line-these two
poor creatures groaning and moaning in
great distress, when some one asked
the nurse what the matter was; she
told them that the two nurses had had
their hands cut off above the wrists,
and each had her tongue cut off several
inches and both were victims of outrages
from German soldiers. Doesn’t that
make your blood boll?”
“I met Miss Anne Morgan recently in
New York,’’ said Mr. Boucher. ’She, you
know, was one of the first at Bordeaux
when the wounded were brought in from
the battle of the Marne. I tat'.ed with
her of various incidents, one of which
shows the frightful ingratitude of the
Germans. A German general had been
fearfully wounded and a Red Cross nurse
had stayed by him and nursed the gen
eral through the dreadful crisis of ill
ness, like the saint that she was. When
she got ready to go, Hhe went to say
good-by to some of the prisoners and also
lo the,German general. When she ex
tended her hand he asked her to shake
“German fashion,’’ which, as you know,
is giving both hands. He grabbed her
hands roughly and before she knew what
was happening he had broken both her
wrists anti damning her, said he’d fix her
so she'd never be able to nurse ano.her
soldier.
“Do you think that a Canadian can
forget those things?” Mr. Boucher asked.
“No; a Canadian is like an Indian, he
never forgets, and we haven’t and never
shall forget Sergt. Harry Band or
the Fifteenth Canadians, whom our boys
found crucified to a barn door by the
Germans. We don’t forget anything,
and we are going to see to it that the
Germans pay, pay, pay to the last drop
of blood. Peace could never be declared
without victory. We’ve got to win and
we are doing it. The American soldiers
‘over there* feel just as we do, for they
know how the Germans have turned all
the venom and hatred that they've had
for the English and thq Canadians to
the Americans. God! how they hate
Americans! The outcome of this war de
pends now absolutely upon the rapidity
with which the United States can get
troops to the front; that’s all.

SAPPER JOHN BOUCHER
Seventy-three-year-old veteran of the civil war, who came over on the
same ship with Lord Reading of England recently, after serving with
the Canadian engineering corps on the Flanders front for eight months.
Mr. Boucher is the guest of Birm ingham for a few days with the big
“America at War” picture now show ing at the Jefferson theatre.
corps to which I was attached turned
over 60 miles of railroading to the Amer
icans and how those fellows finished up
things,’’ said Mr. Boucher.” Shelled by
long range guns during their work, the
American engineers found themselves in
the midst of the melee and fight around
the Cambrai front and a group of nine
Americans who were caught in a trap
Vith three times as many Germans ab
solutely cleaned up the entire lot, six out
of the nine Americans returning un
harmed.
“One cf the most horrible examples of
what Canadians hold against the Ger
mans,” Air. Boucher said, ‘‘is a returned
soldier of ours who today is just a shed
of a man. He is kept in a basket like a
baby, for his hands, eyes and feet are
gone. He is the most horrible sight you
ever saw and when he came back to his
home when his young wife saw him she
went raving crazy, and is today in a
lunatic asylum—the, two, one no less
than the other—victims of German bru
tality.”
Bitter animosity for the Huns, how
ever, is not Sapper John Boucher’s most
remarkable trait, for by far the most de
lightful and fascinating thing about this
splendid .3 years “young” veteran of two
wars is his healthy optimism, buoyancy
of heart, and firm belief that the allied
nations of the world will soon wear the
victor’s crown. His divine faith in the
frfcsh, virile, well-clad, courageous Amer
ican air, marching side by side writh his
own native soldiers, the Canadians, who
will eventually destroy the Boche army,
at present spent and weary, reduced to
tired old men and mere lads, ill cared for
and tired of the struggle, who just see
as does this splendid old veteran hero
that their leader, the mighty Kaiser, self
styled “the right arm of the Almighty,”
is now withered and snauerea almost to
the breaking point.
Orders for 100,000 Cars
Will Be Placed at Once
Washington, April 22.—Orders for 300,
000 freight and coal cars, containing a
large proportion of wood in order to save
steel for shipbuilding and other war pur
poses, will be placed probably this week
by the railroad administration with
about 15 leading car manufacturers. The
contracts will total about $300,000,000, rep
resenting profits to manufactures of prob
ably 5 or 6 per cent, about half the rate
first demanded by them in negotiations
with John Shelton Williams, director of
purchases of the railroad administration.
Quantity delivery of the cars will be
gin in about four months, and all prob
ability will be completed in six months,
when more will be ordered. Within two
weeks, Mr. Williams expects to order part
of the 2000 new locomotives which rail
roads will need this year.

Why the U. S. Steel Corporation
uses over 250 Daltons
The Steel Corporation was quick to see 10-key simplicity and 10-key
efficiency. The DALTON stood up to their most exacting requirements.
Why should the Pennsylvania R. R., the American Radiator Co.,
the Chicago Elevated, the Western Electric, the American Steel and
Wire, and other nationally known corporations, buy hundreds of
DALTONS unless they are getting efficiency not to be had elsewhere ?
That is the point you should investigate. Time spent learning the
superiority of the DALTON will be money in your pocket.
Let us demonstrate the DAL TON in your own office

See the machine that can be operated

The DALTON saves eye-reference to

You men who are giving your trained
