MORMON GRAN* RIES,
AID WHEAT SUPPLY
Woman of 91, Head of Church Relief
SocicD , Releases 175,000 Bushels to
U. S. Board.
Salt Lake City, Oct. T —It was owing
to the forethought ami energy of a wo
man. that the United States Food Ad
ministration was enabled to obtain re
cently, 175.000 bushels of wheat from the
Relief Society of the Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter Day Saints, (Mormons).
This store of grain had been saved up*
against a possible famine and was made
available (<> the government in a time of
great need
The woman who was chiefly instru
mental in saving up the wheat is Mrs,
Emmeline H. Wells, president of the
church relief society. For 42 years she
earned out the wishes of Brigham Young
in the storing of the grain
Young then president of the Mormon
Chnreli. taught her that some day there
would lie a famine and he urged her to ad
vocate saving grain Through the-medium
of a papier known as the "Woman's Ex
ponent." which Mrs Wells edited for
she preached the storing of grain

PROVE FATALISTS
Literally Without Fear and In
different to Danger, Says Col
onel of Colored Command.
With the Amcric anTmops in France.—
Sept. 20.—(Correspondence of the Asso
ciated Preos)—American Negro froojicr«
are regarded by their officers as ex
ceptionally good at patrol work, as raid
ers and scouts. They seem to have some
quality lacking in the white man which
enables them to slink and crawl across
No Man'« Land in a way that defies
detection
But the Negroes never lose their latent
superstition and fear of the dark. With
out white officers to support, them morally
their value is said to deteriorate quickly
They "see things" with ease
The Negro trooper's timidity at night
is best illustrated by the experience of a
captain, w ho found one of his men at work
after dark The Negro was talking vio
lently to himself:
"Niggah, pick up that wheel barrow
and push it over there!" "Now put. that,
barrow down'" "Tip it over and empty
it " "Now wheel it back and till it up
I"
again
To all of which the Negro answered
"A es, sah'" and suited the action to the
word He explained to the astonished
captain that he felt less lonely and seared
in the dark if he pretended « white officer
was then* to give him orders
Let (lie average Negro soldier halt and
be forced to lie down for a tunc, and he
goes to sleep almost immediately, unless
he is forcibly kept awake. The leaders of
at least one regiment have had to adopt a
plan whereby all the members of a patrol
when they lie down, join hands, with the
white officer at one end He k**c|ie the
mid awake then by pressing tin* hrnd
the man next to him. who repents »he

An answering pressure as evidence that

Nevertheless, the Negroes arc always
ready for a tight. < >nc regiment had begged

action was assured in the Inst German
offensive, and that action suddenly began
Five of the officers of that regiment alone
were in hospital, but heard a few hours in
advance of what was coming
The colonel left the hospital mi crutches,
otiier officers were carried to the

Amsterdam. Sept 25. ( irmmnys fam

is not being ftllcviated by the ingenious
"just as good" substitutes which have
lieen nrnvided ainre the war, according to
Kmil Zimmermann, a well-known author
ity on colonial subjects. in an artiele in the
Berlin Tagelirhe Rundschau.
"Nothing," he complains, "has cul no
deeply into our daily life ns the lark of
fats and the absence of raw textile
ferial'. < >nc dovetails into the other, for
no fat means- no soap no soap means
ehern I cal substitutes chemical substi
tute« ruin ejothes, and clothes we cannot
replace without wool and cotton."
"Dairy produce has fallen off 66 per
cent and animal fat has almost completely
vanished from the eountry," Zimtner
mann writes, uneonscioualy perhiip* re
vealing the inner truth of Germany'«
precarious position when he declares:
,f We must have colonies from which we
can draw large quantifies of raw materials
at once and not after 15 to 20 years of
fighting."
The rich territory of < 'entrai and West.
Africa apfavils to the German economic
expert, as the poaaihlr site of a Teutonic
colonial empire that would overshadow
even Emperor William s fondest dreams
He would draw 700,000 tons of vegetable
nils and fata annually from Nigeria,
Sierra leone, Dahomey, Togoland, the
Ramenions, the Congo and Hanegambia.
Acquistion of oil producing territory
by Germany, is advocated by the writer
on the ground that the African oil region«

Americans on March Would Part
With Mess Kit Rather Than
Digging Tools.
With Ih«* American Army in Trance,
Heiit, 20 Next to his rifle- the American
infantryman in action in I ranee has
learned to cherish his pick and shovel
above everything else By experience he
nas learned that, his pick and shovel will
save him from injury or death at times
when his other implements of war are
useless.
In the thrust against tin German« in
July and August on certain day« the
Americans advanced so rapidly that the
infantrymen were, on the go hour after
hour As their packs became heavier,
sonn- left behind, piece by piece, parts of
their equipment Even in some instance
doughboys tossed aside their mess kit«
and emergency ratioe- and i into i and
their coats, but until the last, they clung
to their rifles and their picks and shovels
and went ahead to victory
The pick and shovel are often brought
into action in a hurry when d is nece
snry to dig in to escape fragments of gas
shells or of shrapnel It often happens, as it
did time and again during the recent
French American drive, north of the
Marne, that *h< infantrymen, during an
advance n too f ir behind tin enemy to
make use of hi nfl< and that when the
enemy big gun an turned loose be
only deferi«« i to dig hob in tie field
or along a roadwny or wherever he may he
and make this his shelter until the attack
is at an end or until he i . ordered else
where
When the American infantryman land

not been taught no«
»fei eh warfare before b ivirv lb. S'ate |

for bathing purposes was hot
Further improvement of the system of
providing baths for the men on the very

American officers say that the day is not
far away when the rolling shower bath
apparatus will be a* rnrnon a sight along
the roads back of the lines as are the roll

"Even with Hus meagre equipment we

the bathing center we can bathe 1,200 to

we averaged 1,027 men per day. As they
were relieved from the line they were
either marched to bathe or transported j
in camions, and every man was given .

In four 'lays 5,042 men and 137 officer*
passed through the battis
"The effect of »he baths on the men
was wonderful They came from the
