The people of France are wildly enthusiastic over the One Hundred nnd Slxty-flfth. and, believe me, they have reason to be. “We followed the Klxty-ninth up at the battle of Champagne, laying down their l.arrage for them. It got hot at bell behind those boys and then hotter and It was just as bad In front. The Pollus started to go back and yelleC to the One Hundred nnd Sixtyfifth to turn and follow them. " To hell, with that!’ yelled l«ack the Sixty-ninth. ‘We're going right on.' And. believe me, they went right on and saved the day. Exacted Terrible Cost. “The gray-green uniforms strewed the ground In front of the Irish positions. One walked on a carpet of dead bodies after the attack was hurled bark. The Sixty-ninth was cat op, hot they exacted terrible cost from the Hoche.” It was '•l the One Hundred and For ty-nlnth field artillery that a captured German said: “Let me see those men who are b hind those gnus. I never saw such perfect bnrruge In nil my life." One of the most popnlsr officers on

the transport was the Rev. Bay F.! Jenney. the fighting chaplain of Decatur, 111., who had four wound stripes, on bis sleeve. When all the officers of a company in his regiment had been shoj down In the big drive at 8L Mlhlel he led the men on nnd brought back a trophy In the shape of a silver mounted Luger pistol that he took i from n German commander when his company smashed up n machine gun.;

Good ventilation In the chicken bouse *s essential to succese In the poultry business, according to Rn«* M. Sherwoc-t poultry husbandry specialist In the extension division of the Kansas State Agricultural college. •The two methods most commonly used are ttf- open-front boose and the curt«In-front bonae." said Mr. Sherwood. “The open front provide* the most freso air and Is giving excellent results in some sections, but many persons find It desirable to have curtains that may be placed over most of the openings during bad weather. It has been found that a house closed on three Sides and tightly curtained on the south does not provide enough fresh air. To remedy this, a nan. opening Is often made Just under the rafters. This causes a freer rlrculition of air than is possible with all the opening curtained, and yet doe* not allow the wind to blow on. the fowls." The large curtained openings should be from SO to 90 Inches from the floor In order that the wind may not sweep In directly upon the flock. During the summer months opentagon the other sides of the building are neceusary to make It cool enough that the fowls win roost there. These openings should be so located that the birds will not be In a direct draft during the night. These extra openings should be closed tightly In winter.

It Is probable that the song was composed In the seventeenth century, although some , Icverilgatora think It much older.
