SAY DEMOCRACY PREVAILS IN CAMPS
Th.it ii democratic spirit Is the most outstanding feature among the
officers and their «ubordin«tes in the camps throughout the country is tbe
assertion made by MaJ. "Archie"' Johnson (left), son of United States Senator
Hiram Johnson, and Cnpt. Peter H. Kyne (right), well-known mi^iielne
writer now stationed nt OnmD Kearuy.
In such c.>""lv n-essed neutral conn
tries rts Sweden the war hns resulted
in rich and |>ni»r alike being subjected
to many restrictions heretofore uii
known. An illustration of this—not
without in humorous aspect—is found
In a Swedish wedding invitation re-,
cently received in the United States
by friends of the bride and bridegroom.
The latter were members of two
wealthy families in Stockholm, and the
handsomely engraved missive Included
an invitation to a banquet at one of
the finest hotels in the Swedish capital.
It was in a notation at the bottom
page that the hand of war manifested
itself, in these words: "Please bring
your bread cards." iThls meant, of
course, that well-to-do hosts at a wed
ding could not provide their guests
with bread, except In restricted
amounts and in the manner prescribed
by law.—Popular Mechanics Magazine.
Foiled Food Smuggler*.
Smuggling of foodstuffs Into Ger
many Is being practiced In <ingeiiioaa
and unexpected ways. Three week*
ago a party of 50 persons crossed the
frontier to take part In a masked ball
in a little Swiss town. Toward mid
night they returned la automobiles,
which wpre warned to stop at the fron
tier. No notice being taken of the
warning the Swiss sentinels flred and
brought the cars to a standstill. The
occupants, most of whom were discov
ered to be German soldiers, succeeded
in making their escape, but the cars,
in which were found to be hiddea
large quantities of soap, chocolate,
bntter, leather and fats, were seUef
by the authorities.

safe to say that Alaska has over
