THllt.SIAV, JULY O. ttf. M'AESCE GKTH THK HUCKKIM. Malingering the pretense of physical Incapacity to avoid mili tary service has been the pest of armies since war began. The slack er alleges that he Is the victim ol some debilitating disease the up pearances of which can be stimulat ed by the ubp of drugs. He can Imi tate an epllectle fit with such fidel ity to typo ao to horrify the recruit ing sergeants and deceive even a neu rological expert. Now and then hi! foigns lameness, limps to perfection, or linds his right arm bo heavy that it cannot be rulsed without causing him excruciating paint. Without u trace of evidence other ttian his own statement l!ie shirk ban been known to plead that his eyesight Is Bone and that he can Bee men "only at trees walking." but his main reli ance in these day. of universal ser vice la on the pretense that ho is deaf. Now the conventional methods of enabling ti e shirker to recover the use of his ears are legion. He is ac costed when off his guard, or his "hump of acqulsltivenoss" Is appeal ed to by the dropping of a heavy sliver coin In' his Immediate vicinage. Another device of the examiner is to got him to read aloud with tele phone receivers at his ears, foi when these nre made to vibrate nois ily by an electric current the pre tender will Involuntarily raise his voice to make It carry above the din. If he alleges that he is Ae-.-.t in one ear only that case is provided for by speaking tv,o different seta of words Into the right and left euro; the "mono-deaf man will hear only one of the messages, whllo the slacker who Is sound in both ears will recog nize nothing of what Is said because of the conflict between the two com munlcations. Detection of the slacker hns been ensured by all these methods, but they have been vastly Improved upon by the aurists who are now at work In the military clinics of France, Though lectricily is still employed In tho work, the apparatus Is new and the tests are more precise, some of them depending less on the pa tients own voluntary than on his Involuntary physlologi cal reactions. In one experiment the pilnclplo is followed that "every sound perceived by one ear prevents on the opposite side the pereeptlon of sound of equal Intensity but at a greater distance. " In another a sound prmhiced in the ear by a vi brating telephone receiver causes, by reflex aetlcn, "an abrupt winking of the eyes." A third method Hi to Dispatches from Paris tell of United States troops Tlaradlng the streets and of wildly enthusiastic reception to the Boys from the great American publlr. Charming girls vied with each other in pinning liny American Hags on tho soldl is' coat lapels, and thousands of fljwers were litorally scattered In the streets at places along the line of march. All tbiJ homage Is only an evidence of the fact that France sees In these stalwart sons of America deliver ance from a struggle that has actu ally conscripted her every resource, and the end without assistance, not encouraging to contemplate. Personally conducted by one Fer-i shing, the American eagle will pre; sently scream on the battlelW Ids of Europe. This makes Pershing ono of our greatest conductors. America is edging Into the war with tho Irresistible Insistence of a Jess Wlllard getting through the crowd that Is engaged In watching a safe hoisted to the fifteenth floor. Turkeys are now cheaper than for some time past. Cannot the presi dent be Induced to order a special Thanksgiving day to colebrate the fact? General Pershing will be astonish ed at the scarcity of horned toads and Olla monsters on the Holds ol France. Yet the lighting Is very good there. They Blarted that British drive at 3 o'clock in the morning. The man who hutes his alarm clock la not like ly to enjoy modern war.. 10 ROUNDUP IS BIG SUCCESS "It was a Roscburg picnic," was the statement of a Koseburger who arrived home today from Ashland where he attended tho roundup and Fourth of July celebration," and icsidcnts of this city were to be seen on tho streets In large num bers." It was estimated that Hose burg was far better represented at disclosures i Ashland than other cities closer by, and from all reports reaching hero today, the "homo boys" entered Into I lie festivities with a great deal of vim and vigor.

Whenever the authoritiee issue a warrant for a man whose name they do not know they issue it for "John Doe". Loe during the last century or so has been charged with all man ner of offenses ranging from petty larceny to murder, but when caught he has always turned ouj to be Bill Urowne or some one else with an equally common. name. "Hut we have ' him at last," chuckled Keames today. "In court Collins reversed the situation and declared that his name is really John Doe. Now let's hope he won't plead that he has been placed In jeopardy too many times, because the court records aro crammed with charges of mUconduct on the part of Doe." It's the first time In the history of the federal court In Portland that John Doe has appeared in person. The above mentioned Collins was ruptured by Sheriff Quine at Riddle recently in connection with the post- office robbery, at that place. Port land officials state that the "catch" was a most important one.
