LIEUT. TOOZE
IN PARIS jCOLLEGE
Secures Coveted Four Months, Course
in Law at Sarbonne University
in France.
T.hiiitenant Lamar Tooze. of Salem,
well known over Polk county, who is
with the 364th Infantry in France,
writes frorfl Nogent-le-Bernard to his
father, Walter L. Tooze, Sr., that he
has been detailed on regular pay to
take a course of four months in tne
law college in Sorbonne University of
Paris. Lieutenant Tooze is regimental
intelligence officer. At leisure mo
ments while in France he has written
a book on the history of the 364th in
fantry and will have it published in
the United States. He went to France
with his twin brother, Lieutenant Les
lie Tooze, who was killed in action.
' "I have been detailed to attend a
course in law at Sorbonne University
Paris for four months, pay going on
at the same time, and I leave for
Paris Tuesday," he writes. "That
means I won't be with the ?lst divi
sion when' it leaves (probably the last
of March), but will get home about
the middle o.f July. It's an opportun
ity of a lifetime and I don't see how
I made it, because there were thous

tion of Commander Booth to see tnat
none of the prestige gained on the
fields of battle is lost in peace times,
say local leaders. The army's new
program contemplates maintaining
contact not only with returned sol
diers and seamen, but with their re
latives and friends as well.
"We have decided to relieve the pub
lie of the endless begging and solici
tation for funds that was necessary
in the past, and to go forth in one
great effort each year, meantime

The United States had 5,285,000
war gardens in 1918, It should have
ten million victory gardens in 1919,
for there are more millions of people
than ever to be fed and Uncle bam
must become the Joseph of the mo
dern world, says today's bulletin from
the national war garden commission
of Washington. This nation has ne
ver fallen down on any task it set
out to accomplish. It must now win
war for food, and the home
food producers will have a big part
in this harvest of victory. Begin oy

Just because the war is over is no
reason why the gardeners of this
country should think their big job is
done. In reality the enormous tasK
of feeding the millions of hungry
people released from the Huns, ana
the other millions in the war strick
en countries, is just now beginning.
The world shortage of food is appal
ling.' Thus, it is 'up to us,' fellow
gardeners, to put more vim than ev
er into our garden efforts in 1919.
Let us grow the staple crops in larg
er quantities and thus release more
food for fereign shipment. Perhaps
we can grow a few extra potatoes or
beans for one of our own wounded
roforp n a fin plan now for a larger
garden, use every foot available and i
