PRAISED Br LEDDER
Fighting Qualities Second to
None Claimed for Men by
Henry T. Allen, Commanding
Officer—All Proved (lallantry
Oklahoma City, Dec. 17.—Governor
Williams has received from Henry J
Allen, who served with the Red Cross
in France, a letter accompanied with
a memorandum of the Ninetieth Divi
sion, which was composed mostly o
Texas and Oklahoma troops and
part of the Third Army Corps. The
memorandum is a series of bulletin
and messages from different com
manders of the division, and corps. It
is observed that prior to the begin
nine of operations of this division the
Meuse-Argonne sector that the Com
maud ing General reserved his esti
mate of the division until later.
The memorandum says: "He
longer has any doubt or reluctance in
claiming for the Ninetieth Division
fighting qualities second to none. Ev-
ery regiment has gained its objective
in every operation in which it has
^ participated, and the division has ex-
ceeded its allotment in the execution
of every task assigned it.
"The division commander has no
adequate words to express his great
.satisfaction and delight with the fine
military spirit of the division, and his
pride in its fighting value, after sev-
<nty-f<nir days less an interval of sev.
en days in the fighting lines. The
engineer, sanitary troops, signal bat-
talion and the trains have emulated
the fichting impulses of the combat-
ant troops. In spite of the severe
losses and the terrific demands that
these successes have exacted, the in-
domitable spirit and keenness to fight
continue to characterize the division.
"Every member of this gallant force
has a right to be proud of the ser-
vices he has rendered in the great
cause of human liberty. Our country
may count with assurance upon the
execution with success of whatever
duty it may intrust to the Ninetieth
Division."
DAYS OF DIZZINESS
Come to Hundreds of Hobart People.
There are days of dizziness;
Spells of headache, languor, back-
ache;
Sometimes rheumatic pains;
Often urniary disorders.
Dunn's Kidney Pills are especially
for kidney ills.
Endorsed in Hobart by grateful
friends and neighbors.
Mrs. H. G. Parmiter, 111 Bailey St.,
Hobart, says: "I suffered from fre-
'quent spells of dizziness. It seemed
as if I was falling and my eyes blur-
red until I could hardly see. Head-
aches came on quite often, too and
my back ached and was sore. I didn't
take quite two boxes of Doan's Kid-
ney Pills before I was entirley cured
«f the trouble and the cure has prov
^en permanent for the last two years.
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don'1
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that

To the mothers of the #ood old U. S.
A.;
I am writing you in regard to the
orphan soldiers or sailors. Now many
of the boys are marching home, and
how many mothers have stopped to
think about our dear orphan soldiers
coming home. No mother to receive
them with open arms and a loving
heart. Why not have each mother
get busy and take to their home one
or more orphans and be a mother to
them. Show them how we old moth-
ers of this glorious nation appreciate
them.
The call of our flag that we might
livo under the good old stars and
stripes, was answered by the orphans I
as freely as those that came from the i
homes surrounded with parental love
and now that they are soon coming
home who Will receive them. No
mother; perhnps no sister and yet we
mothers will hesitate to take one or
more. Don't let us think we have
done our full duty when we have fur-
nished one of our own boys, for we
have not, until we have made those
dear orphan boys happy by receiving
them.
I know we can do this fftr I myself,
have and why not others. I have a
loved son of my own in the service
and have two orphans that I write to
as I do my own. How glad they seem
to get my letters and think they have
a mother and a home they can come
to.
The boys have done their part in
establishing world wide democracy
and we should not fail to do ours
fully. My own boy is stationed at
Camp Grant and I have one orphan
boy in France and another at Fort
Sill, and just think of a boy being in
the service five years before receiving
mother's letter. I found him to be
an orphan and now I write him as
real mother should write her son, and
we can all do the same thing. It is
a very small thing to do compared
with giving your life and that
what many a fatherless and mother
less boy has done on the battle fields
I think every mother should con
sider this phase in the orphan boys
life' and start at once to writing to
one or more of them. They will soon
be homeward bound with our own
sons and they should be accorded a
reception into the homes and made to
realize that we old mothers are proud
of them. I am expecting my boy
home for Christmas and also expect
to have my orphan frpm Fort Sill
here as my guest. I know there are
other mothers who can do as much.

fairyland that welcomes you in.

OUR NATIONAL DEBT
The national debt of the United
States has reached proportions never
equalled. This debt was incurred
through determination of the Ameri-
can people to prevent Germany be-
coming the autocratic ruling power
of the world. It was money well
spent. Uncle Sam needs great sums
of money and will for several years
to come. We should continue to in-
vest every dollar we can in Liberty
Bonds and War Savings Stamps. Such
investments not only help the Uni-
ted States government but they help
you to save and accumulate some-
thing for the lean years that are to

Oklahoma City, Dec. 17.—The State
Board of Agriculture has declared a
quarantine on all potatoes, sweet po-
tato plants or cuttings, and declares
that any such potatoes, sweet potato
plants of cuttings infected or infest-
ed with any diseases or insect of a
seriously injurious character shall not
be moved into the State of Oklahoma
for seed or propagation purposes.
It is provided, however, in the or-
der that "each individual delivery orig
mating from points outside of Okla-
homa tnust have attached to it a tag
bearing a ccpy of a valid certificate
of inspection signed by a properly au-
thorized inspector, to the effect that
necessary inspection has been made
during the growth of the potatoes
from which said shipments are made
and found to be apparently free from
injurious insects and diseases. All
other shipments of sweet or Irish po-
tatoes must have attached to each con
ainer a conspicuous tag, bearing the
following inscription: "Not certified
for planting purposes." Said tags
shall also be attached to each individ-
al delivery to purchasers of pota-
toes in Oklahoma."
It is further specified that "begin-
ning with the year 1920 no person
hall plant either Irish or propagate
sweet potato plants in the State of
Oklahoma unless the seed stock has
been properly certified showing that
they are apparently free from injur-
ious diseases and insects."
The order is made effective as of
Dec. 12, 1918.
FIRESTONE WINS BIG
VICTORY IN TIRE SUIT
SHORTAGE OF TEACHERS
S. B. Nix, in charge of the local of-
fice of the U. S. Employment Service.
at Hobart, is informed by the Chi-
cago office of the Professional Sec-
tion of the U. S. Employment Service
that a most serious shortage of teach
ers exists in practically all parts of iconducted alon£ the following gen-
ths United States, and that he has er£.pl*n:

Oklahoma City, Dec. 1G.—There is
nothing too good for returning sol-
diers and sailors declares Uncle Sam
in his instructions to the Oklahoma
State Council of Defense. The state
council is laying plans for the task
of placing demobilized troops in use-
Iful occupations, the best that they
I are able to fill. To accomplish this
the services of the county councils of
defense will be added to those of the
labor community boards and central
and divisional bureaus to be estab-
lished for returning soldiers and sail-
ors by the United States department
of labor.
For War Workers Too
Returning war workers will also be
looked after. While designed primar-
ily for soldiers and sailors, in many
communities the bureau will care al-
so for those civilians who have left
their peace time jobs to take posi-
tions with concerns engaged in doing
war work. In many places the facili-
ties of the Employment Service are
sufficient in themselves to care for
the civilian workers; in other places
it may become a community necessity
that the Central Bureau should be for
soldiers and sailors and war workers
so as to give assistance to civilians
who have ben engaged in war work
J and who cannot find employment.
Will Centralize Effort.
Many organizations such as the
churchjes, lodges, local branches of
national women's organizations and
such bodies as the Red Cross, Y. M.
I A. United War Work and others,
are preparing to find employment for
the returning soldiers and sailors.
Unless coordinated, the work of these
organizations will overlap. No one
of them will be able to get mors than
partial information as to available op-
portunities in cities and few will be
in touch with opportunities in other
communities.

It is therefore desired that the co-
operation between the government
and the associated organizations be

Suit was brought against the Fire-
stone Company in April, 1917, on al-
leged basic patents for manufacture
of pneumatic tires by machine. The
rate of royalties established would
have amounted to millions of dollars
per year from the tire manufacturers
and the automobile owners. This vic-
tory is more far reaching in savings

About Croup
If your children are subject to croup
or if you have reason to fear their
being attacked by that disease, you
should procure a bottle of Chamber-
lain's Cough Remedy, and study the
directions for use. so that in case of
an attack you will know exactly what
course to pursue. This is a favorite
and very successful remedy for croup
and it is important that you observe
the directions carefully.
"I am thankful for the good I have
received by using Chamberlain's Tab-
lets. About two years ago when I
began taking them I was suffering a
great deal from distress after eating,
and from headache and a tired, lan-
guid feeling due to indigestion and a
torpid liver. Chamberlain's Tablets
corrected these disorders in a short
time, and since taking two bottles of
them health has been good." writes
