(Correspondence of the Associated Press.) -I'welve. o'clock at night, all lights ashore and afloat, heavy rain squallg sweeping out ot sea, and this great port dark and silent as the latest fleet of American transports and convoys --13 monster ships, 10 destroyers, 36,000 fighting men and 5,000 crew--creeps in from the Atlantic. With an American army escort we had climbed to a high point on the sea front to get a glimpse of this first process in the gigantic! military migration from America to Europe, the greatest the world has ever known and then to follow it, step by step, as its vast and intricate activities unfolded up to the arrival of the men on the fighting front.

No Stage Effects. The wireless station had received a cipher message giving warning of the approach of the fleet. It had been hoped the arrival would in daylight, with flags flying, bands playing and the sun shining as the American fighting men got their first glimpse of Europe. But this is no dress parade, said the admiral and there is no time for stage effects. And so at midnight in the rain and darkness with signal lights showing for the first time since they left the other side, the huge flotilla moved in a long line of lights to the sheltered roadstead.

There was the creak af windlass and chains as the anchors gripped. And yet this midnight arrival in the darkness and rain is only one of the steady succession of great armadas coming every three and four days, in the colossal American military influx which Secretary Baker gives at 275,000 men for a single month. These 36,000 men just in the population of a good-sized city: twice as many men are, as we sent to Cuba for the SpanishAmerican war; about half force Napoleon had at. Waterloo whea the destines of Eurpe were in the scale. And while this is one of the record debarkments, yet it is only a small part of that mighty stream coming in from the west.

It is the unprecedented magnitude of such a military movement, across the ocean, in the face of submarines, that has thrilled the allied world and broken the spirit of the adversary. 36,000 Men in Khaki. It was a stirring scene in the harbor the morning following as the transports unloaded their 36,000 men. The sky had cleared and the huge hulls of the transports loomed out of the mist, funnels puffing black smoke, their sides painted with fantastic camouflage and their decks rising like terraces crowded with khaki-clad Americans in their broad-brimmed sombreros. The destroyers had drawn off and were lying bunched 10 across.

They looked diminutive besides the big ships, but their power showed in the glint of guns and the long, lean build like a greyhound stretched for action. Further back were the French warships. All about were innumerable small craft, army and navy tugs, lighters, launches and a flotilla of fishing craft with their nets hanging to dry like huge sails of lace. Back of this water scene stretched huge American warehouses, sprung up like mushrooms, until the whole front was black with buildings and the skeletons of more buildings. Already the lighters were alongside and the soldiers came tramping down the gangways to go ashore.

The Americans found this port without any system of big docks. A few of the smaller ships can come to the docks, but most of the unloading from the deep ships must be by lighters. The American commanders are planning to change all this, and soon the long breakwater will be linked to the land by bridges, thus creating at a stroke a huge docking system by which the American troops will march straight ashore from the ships. Bands Play, A lighter was now pushing off with 500 troops packed on it like the crowd at a holiday procession. The men were feeling for they were about to step on solid ground again, and to have their first look at France, and besides they had the regimental band, which was sending the "'Star Spangled Banner" echoing over the water.

Every head was bared 89 the strains of the anthem went up. Over the men floated a huge dirigible balloon pointing out to sea in quest of a submarine. The soldiers gazed at it as the first sign of warfare. After it rose two hydroplanes like monster beetles and joined in the search for submarines. Now the lighters were at the dock and with the tide out the men OUR TWO GREAT LEADERS Latest photograph of Marshal Ferdinand Foch, commander of the allied forces in Europe and General John J.

Cuyahoga Falls HERE'S FIRST CASE OF TYPHOID THIS SEASON CUYAHOGA PALLS. Henry Ward of Bailey rd. was taken to the Peoples hospital Monday night in Weller's ambulance suffering from typhoid fever.

This is the first case of the season, but it has not been reported to the health department by the physician in charge. It was this neglect on the part of the doctors to report the cases last year that made the epidemic harder to combat. Whether the failure to report disease is just neglect or is intentional on the part of the physicians has not been determined, but it is a violation of the the people are wondering why the physicians should not obey the law as well as any other class of eitizens. The work of the health department in taking precautionary measures is prevented when they are not notified of the disease, and the department is condemned for inefficiency when the cause is primarily with the doctors. CLAIM CITY WATER IS TYPHOID- -PROOF CUYAHOGA people are hoping to escape the epidemic of typhoid that swept over the city last year.

The city water is being examined and treated with the greatest regularity, and every precaution is being taken to make the water safe. The authorities say that warning will be given at the first suspicion that the water is not safe. Quite a number are using well water and several weels recently tested have been found ous. No well water should be used till the well has been examined and found safe. The officials are doing everything in their power to prevent disease from the water and the only source of contagion is from the wells.

ALL SET FOR FALLS SCHOOL OPENING CUYAHOGA Falls schools will open next week Tuesday. On Monday afternoon teachlers' meetings will be held, and the preliminary work will be done making ready for the next morning. The schools are all organized, and every class will recite the first day. The enrollment will be 200 0 more than last September and provision has been made for the increase.

They will be in attendance at the institute in Akron Thursday and Friday. The schools will be continved under the same plan that has proved so satisfactory for the past two years. Lunches will not be served at the building for the first two weeks as it will take that long to get work organized in that department.

As a result of what the government has done i in taking care of its war financial needs there are more holders of securities today than the financial interests of the country dreamed of two years ago. When we entered the war, it is estimated we had in this country about 400,000 individual bond owners. Today it is estimated we have about 17,000,000. The new investor is learning about safety standards, while the seasoned investor is likewise making it a point to become better informed before investing. The Federal Capital Issues committee in approving any security to be offered to the public makes a statement that relieves the committee of responsibility or any implied recommendation.

If investors wish advice regarding the securities offered or recommended, they are left to consult those agencies which vouch for the security offered, namely, the responsible investment dealers. Representing the highest type of protection to the funds of the rich, well-to-do or poor, the investment house is performing a greater service today than ever in the past and will have still greater opportunity in the future.

It is an investment with- -substantial promise for the future in that the preferred stock is convertible into common stock, par for par, at any time up to June 1st, 1922.

After June 1st. 1922, it is to. be retired one-tenth annually out of surplus carnings prior to payment of any dividends on the common stock. Call, write or telephone at any time. and we will be pleased to give you detailed information regarding this stock and its promising future.
