Have been in Paris and find it is a most wonderful city. We had nine days there and you may be sure we made the most of our op portunity. At present I am in a small but very charming town. Have seen many of the boys I was first with (the 322 Inf.) since I have been transferred and find they arc all well, feeling fine and having a good time. My lame ankle is now nearly well as I have done but little -walking for the past month only ride tho trains day after day and that is great. Donit worry about me as I am doing nicely and feeling -very con tented. Address John M. Leslie", Co. D, 381st Reg. Inf. N. A., via New York, A. E. F. A. P. O., 762. Attempts to evade registration on September 12, by men made subject to military service by the man-power bill fixing the draft age limits at 18 mid, 45, will be hope less, Provost Marshal General Crowder's office asserted in sum marizing the government's experi ence with tho draft to date. Between 20,000 and 25,000 men who failed to register in 1917 have been rounded up since, the state ment said, and private and semi public organizations assisting the government's own agencies are on the trail of the rest. Measures to catch delinquents have improved with experience, with the result that the process now moves more expeditiously. ' The trouble in Perrysburg has not been that of evading the draft, but of a weakness of the knees and impaired eyesight among many who did register. "Petticoat protection" has proven a great boon of consolation ttf many who prefer to remain at home and hope 'for peace rather than go abroad and fight for it. BssssssssssssssssssssssFT? .'usssssssssssssssssssssl A postcard to the Journal from Ilarold Degner says : "I have ar rived safely." Ilarold Degner, 281 Aero. Squadron, A. E. F." The postcard bears no postoffice mark and Ilarold does not say whether he is in France or Italy. However, we are glad to know he is "safe" wherever he may be. REV. DANIEL CARTER, D. D, Dr. Daniel Carter, after having served the Methodist church here for three years as its pastor, left Tuesday morning for Cincinnati to attend the annual conference of his church. This year marks the fortieth year of service that he has given tho ehurch, and as he re tires from active work as a min ister, the denomination loses one of its foremost active pastors. Throughout his career in, the pul pit, his "Work and service has car ried cheer and 'comfort to those whom he has zealoasly served Perrysburg church, in the resig nation of Dr. Carter, loses a pastor who has served it faithfully, a man whose scholarly attainments and high education and christian char acter have marked not ouly his The following items are taken from a letter to the editor, from a friend who is now in service in France, as Captain if a company of infantry : We had air raids for several nights following our arrival. One bomb dropped in the village and" one town near by was badly dam aged. They were a great nuisance His thev would prevent my lieuten ant and myself from getting our regular sleep. You mav be assured that the American boys over here are prov ing their courage and their colors. We can sleep through the noise of shells, now having become ac customed to the sound, but there is a jackass somewhere down in the village that I would like to sjay for he wakes me up every morning at dawn. One of the difficulties we have is that we can't stop our boys once they start for the enmy. In the part of France where we are now located the water is ab solutely unsafe to drink and very nauseating, so tea. coffee and light wines are tho liquids used. Sol diers cannot buy heavy wines so there are no drunks among them. The German soldiers are too thick headed to understand the Americans. In the dare-devil, not to be thrown from poise Ameri cans, the Germans are meeting the unexpected. And the unexpected phases them. A wise man once sau: When FROM OUR LOUIS Camp Tayfor,Friday Noon. Dear Mr. Blue: Arrived here about one o'clock this morning. It was three before we got to bed; up again at 5:15 leaves me a little tired to-day. It was a nice trip excedt that we didn't get into Kentucky until after dark so missed seeing what I most looked for some blue grass. There were 1G coaches in our tram and all were loaded with selects. This is going to be some life for a little fellow like me. My overalls received first this A.Mr; are size 44.

"Chamberlain's Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy was used by my father about a year ago when he had diarrhoea. It relieved himimmediately and by tak ing three doses ho was absolutely piirpd. Ho has crreat faith in this remedy," writes Mrs. W. H. Williams, Stanley. N. x. Wood County Fair, September 9-13, 1918. Has, a High Opinion of Chamberlain's Tablets. "I have a high opinion of Chamber lain's Tablets for Biliousness and as a laxative," writes Mrs. C. A. Barnes, Charleston, 111. "I haVe never found anything so mild and pleasant to use. My brother has also used these tablets with satisfactory results." Camp Jackkson, S. C, August 10, 1918. (Extracts from a letter writter to his mother by Elmer Henry-. I just got another "shot" in the back. "Will not have to work for 48 hours. We have Saturday afternoon and all day Sunday oft. On Wednesday after noon we do our washing and it is fun to watch the boys' at that work. Wo get plenty to eat but of course it Is not like home. For breakfast we have potatoes, meat, bread and coffee; for supper, we have jced tea tor the drink, but it seems to me the ico we get in S. C. is very warm. We have pie once lin a while, also peaches and plenty of prunes. We had a very heavy electric storm and fire broke out at mid nicrht.. Wo all had to turn out and line up in sections. Some of the boys were dressed and some were not. There is something do ing wnen ou.uuu gee iineti up. Everything goes like clock work here. We will be out of quarantine to morrow.

Germans thought thcirs Lines, Now Bent, Were of Iron Ilcal liue. Oh, that's all right. Lot of things the Germans have to learn. Hand it' to the Germans for efficiency. The way they retreat from the Marnc every time is a "marvelous exhibition. Pretty soon the patriotic query will be "Have you a helmet in your home?" a He Ami how are you getting along with your collecting for the soldiers! She Splendidly 1 I've had my name in the papers four times already. Hospital bombing and baby kill ing never won a war and never will. Germany is in trouble because it is fighting against Foch, destiny and human progress. Ludendorff is in danger of being disgraced for not- winning laurels for the crown prince. A' correspondent writes to ask how to address the campaign com inittce of the New York Woman Suffrage party. He is in doubt between "Mesdamcs" .and "Gen tlemen." You might try "Gcnt Iettes" once. , Just as weybegan to believe that the war was nearing its end up speaks Jess Willard and agrees to light Jack Dempscy " when peace is declared." That circus heavy weight might have inside informa tion that the war will last forever. German j' evidently thinks "Ly ing will win the war. We have a theory that an entei prising man who could go to Rus sia and establish a string of free lunch counters could be elected Czar without opposition. Should anyone raise -ho ques tion of the "yellow peril," ask him if he thinks the Japanese would bomb a hospital. Have an idea that before long "it'll be hinging" on the Rhine. Fuel Administration reports the coal output 15,000,000 tons behind schedule, so next winter Oh, well finish it yourself. Government contemplates a Sep tember loan? Oh5 very well left's all give all we have to Uncle Sain and become September moras. Speaking of the Dentist Davis papers, about the Kaiser, J. D. S. says that he wouldn't want to be the Kaiser's dentist or ever barber, but he would enjoy being the. royal funeral director. It is wrong to say that none of the kaiser's sons have been wound ed was not Joachim injured by the fall of a brass bed 'or some thing 011 the Russian front? And the others have seen ghosts and had their feelings hurt. Lord Lansdowne Avill be Lord Landsdownc and out, if he doesn't quit putting, out peace feelers. Anybody who suggests making peace with the devil arouses the suspicion that his own hoofs are not regulation human. -Quite a number or our American boys have started "on a summer "trip to the Rhine."

ROLL OE HONOR Perrysburg Village and Township Men Now in Service. BOASTING A GOOD CAUSE The country editor finds has mail filled with appeals from every war board, committee, organiza tion and department asking for help in boosting tho bond sales', the war stamps, Red Cross, Y. M. C. A. and other interests, asking for contributions of his space as well as his money, to such an ex tent that he seems almost over whelmed with the obligations that are thrust upon ihm all of which he would gladly assume were it possible for him to so do. The latest is the appeal from the' Ohio. War Savings committee at Columbus iequcsting us to find a patriotic citizen who would stand responsible for the big page adv. on the eighth page of this paper. The Journal referred the matter to Mr. Robert C. Pew, who im mediately came to the rescue by writing his personal check and giving his endorsement of the pro ject. In his letter to the editor he says : " I am enclosing my check for the amount covering this advertising. I have no doubt that this will do some good, and am pleased to makcthe contribution." This is not the only case in which Mr. Pew has shown his de sire to assist in any laudable move ment that may be beneficial to home town and country interest. In fact, he never refuses to boost a worthy cause. Experience the Best Teacher. It is generally admitted that expe rience is the best teacher, but should we not make use of the experience of others as well as our own? The ex- perience of a thousand persons is more to be depended upon than that of one individual. Many thousands of per sons have used Chamberlain's Cough Kemedy for'coughs and colds with the best' results, which shows it to be a thoroughly reliable preparation for those diseases. Try it. It is prompt and effectual and pleasant to take. Ames, Cloycc Amon, Eugeno Amon.
