and Pennsylvania 94 percent complete.
The price of discharge in the United

ice, down to $30 after eleven years’
service.
Of the former service men of the
United States army, 9,000 named Smith

There are 8,000 Johnsons in the organ -
ization.
Of the 1,790 original plays published

founded on incidents of the world war,
while 18 others dealt with the German
revolution.
Although offered $2,000 just to lire a
gun, Sergeant Alvin York, hero of the
world war, has refused, because he
learned a picture was to be taken of it
for advertising purposes.

In Great Britain the war department
is substituting motor tractors for
horses in every branch of the royal ar
tillery. The change will enable the

men, and new model service caps de
signed from a more jaunty fashion
plate, are changes in the United States
