"LAP-DOG PATRIOTISM'" The colonel of a regiment which recently retained - from France pleada with the American public to top petting soldiers. His remarks are worth quoting because of their virile common sense, and because they have a pretty direct applies tlon to every community in this bero-worshipping land, especially In the large cities. . Unless an Immediate halt is called on the lap-dog patriotism of a certain type of perhaps well-intentioned but woefully impractical and short-sighted Americans," he says, "one of the greatest blessings of the war will be destroyed. "The patronizing, babying tactics which are being employed by many toward the returned soldiers are al ready developing In some of them a tendency to ffrrget the gTeat lessons they hare learned.? Tne men are overwhelmed, he says, with "silly remarks about their sacrifices and how much the world owes them." Sometimes they are offered money or other things In sen timental attempt at recompense for what they hare gone through. This sort of treatment, the colonel fears, nay wreck the high ideals, the in spiration, the ambition, the sturdy endurance and impersonal devotion to duty which their war experience developed. - ' When he bade ibis men goodby, they felt that they had only done their duty as soldiers. They hoped they Jiad done their full duty abroad and they came home to continue do ing their full duty as private dll sens. And they find, on every hand, men and women, particularly worn en, trying to turn them into ' pam pered lap-dogs. If friends and relatives win not stop it, he advises the soldiers to enlist in the army again in order to get away from the pernicious influ ence and remain "real men." And it Isn't a bad Idea. MERCHANTS FINISH The Professionals and Mechanics finished the Twilight League series Tuesday evening, and It was some slugging match, from start to finish The wielders of the big stick never wavered, ponndlng the horsehlde all over Southern Oregon. The base-etealers. too. had on their running shoes, Collins, back stop for the Mechanics, allowing six stolen bases while Smith permitted nine men to capture sacks. The pitchers worked hard ' Vnr the Professionals, Patterson struck out 7 and gave two men haaes on alls. Galvtn, slab artist for the Me chanics, struck out 5, passed 6 men to first, and made two wild Ditches. Hammerbacher made the only sacri fice hit. Five two-base hits were rung up, Pernoll smashed the pill for a three-bagger, white Smith and Blevlns both galloped around the diamond making home runs. It -was a five-lnninz eam hut th Professionals had a Ions- lead an4 am not .play their half of the fifth. The official score card shows the fol lowing: Tt H E Professionals j... ig o t Mechanics .. B a 7 While the above record shows only 4 errors toy the Professionals and 7 by the Mechanics, there were numer ous fumbles and wild throws not counted aa errors which- permitted the many runs to 'be made in' the four Innings at bat by the Profes sionals. It was aa off-day for the players, nevertheless the crowd en Joyed the great foot race around the diamond. Thus ends the series, the Mer chant having never lost a game while tne otner clubs tied for second nlana The next game between the Me chanics and the Merchants, which wni start a new series, will be ilav. ed next Friday evening at 7 o'clock Five Dollars Reward Five dollars reward will be naid tor tne arrest and conviction of any one stealing the Daily Couriers from residences or mail boxes.

Some fun t antic flctlou Is published In Qeriuan news papers by writers from Frankfort aud lolilo who hve visited Cob lens and returned home to write whatever they may please about the American army. i.Many of the stories they tell ere new to the officers or the Third army who count them a German propaganda. One writer of a lone srtlolo In the Iielpelo paper dealing with life in Coblens relates alleged Instances of ridiculous sentences Imposed noon Germans by the American army courts. In one case he says that the wife of a government official, "an noyed on the street toy a drunken soldier exclaimed In her anger: 'If! only all the Americans would go to the devil!'"

This Is all news to the American officers. If any woman appears at headquarters every morning, the sentries on duty there have failed to notice It. It la part of their JoT to prevent trespaslng by Germans at tbe main entrance or the Third army headquarters. v Another fictitious tale narrated by the Lelpsie writer to arouse German dislike for .Americans, deals with a case in which a woman, splashed by mud from an automobile ejaculated, "those dirty American automobiles." For this the Letpslc Munchausen avers a military court sentenced her to climb the fortress of Ghrenbriet- stein dally at 6 a. m. for 30 days carrying a pall, scrubbing brush and scouring rags and to clear six Amer ican automobiles. Upon completion ' of thl task, he asserted she was required to walk back home similar ly equipped. , , J Another fantastic tale told by the , Ieipsic Journalist Is of a sentence' which he declares was imposed upon a hotel owner whose nerves could no longer stand the- "wild music"' produced by the American bands snd who commented upon It unfavorably. In punishment, the Hctlon writer claimed, the hotel man was sen tenced to march dally for 30 days alongside the land and after its pa rade to tell its leader, "Sir, your music pleases me to perfection." r7fnit Wear So that's a Jantzen rib-stitch Bath ing Suit!
