PRESIDENT’S REPLY 10 WOMAN OFFERING THIRD SON TO.ARMY He Writes’ That He Believes Country Is Full of Mothers of Same Heroic Sort. WASHINGTON, preciation to Mrs. Louis Meyer o Wheeling, W.

LONDON, June 18.—Replying to a series of questions in the House of Com- mons this afternoon as to whether the British Government had decided upon reprisals for the German air raids on England, Andrew. Bonar Law., member of the British War Council, said the Government intended to take steps not only for demaging the enemy but for preventing raids on England. It was a mistake, Bonar Law said, to assume that air raiding was confined to the enemy. The British air forces in France had raided German communica- tions and all important military objec- tives behind the lines which were of suf- ficient importance to justify such enter- prises. JAPANESE WARSHIPS BELIEVED TO HAVE SUNK A SUBMARINE Flotilla in Mediterranean Attacked Enemy Craft on June 12.

He has completed the round of social functions in connection with his * with important questions regarding arrangement for the arrival of the American troops. Gen.

Alert, Sun-Burred Men on Pershing’s Staff in France. EL PASO, Tex., June 18.—Major-Gen- eral John J. Pershing has taken with him to France certain men whose sea- soning he had attended to himself. These hand-pickec. sun-dried persone are those who served on his staff in Mexico, and who ar» again on his staff with the oversea forces. a The training he has given these men was begun, in some cases, in the Phil- ippine Islands. Gen. Pershing has watched the development of the men, and because of the eceasoning, they are now the men he wants. Capt. Willlam 0. Reed of the Sixth Cavalry is a diplomat. He is a Ken: tuckian who possesses largely the vir- tues for which the natives of that State are famei. He was Governor of Jolo in the Philippines and has been closely associated with Gen. Pershing for many years. He is a most finished and accomplished story teller and usually willing to dis- play his art. He was considered one of the mest compantonable and bociable men attached to the expedition which entered Mexico. He is a capable and energetic soldier, but his heart is in the blue grass, he alleges. , Lieut. George S. Patton Jr., a very amiable man, is reputed the richest man in the army. The wealth he controls and which will eventually be his amounts to millions. This is a condi- tion which the person meeting him in the field would never learn, for it has not affected him in the least. He comes from California and is on the General's personal staff. His wife was Beatrice Banning Ayer, daughter of Frederick Ayer of Beverly, Mass. On the personal staff also is Lieut. Martin C. Shallenberger, who was ap- pointed to the army from Nebraska. His specialty is disposing of an immense amount of hard work, an ability which particularly. commends itself to Gen Pershing. James I. Collins is a handsome and capable young man from Loujsiane. He is a cavalry officer, and his sympathy for civilians is not as keen as that of other members. of the staff. Maj. John I. Hines. who was Adju- tant of the Villa expedition, was an in- fantry officer. His administrative abili- ties caused him to be assigned to the Adjutant-ieneral’s department three years age, and he has been there since. Hie speciality is efficiency and . to the line.

GOAL AND OWL MEN TOLD TO SUPPLY NAVY — Prices Will Be Fixed by President Under Recent Act of | Congress. | WASHINGTON, June 18.—Secretary Daniels has ordered coal and oll pro- ducers to supply the endrmous quantities needed by the ravy at prices to be fixed later by the President, when the Fed- eral Trade Coinmission has determined a fair rate.

WASHINGTON, June 18.—The German submarine toll of British merchant shipping since Feb. 1, as shown in offi- cial British figures compiled here today, js 322 vessels of more than 1600 tons and 1% of than 160. British steamer fishing lg sunk in that period num- bered 78. Records for sailing fishing vessels are incomplete, but a three weeks’ total was 78. Submarines in the period given at- tacked 299 ships unsuccessfully, and the weekly percentage of unsuccessful at- tacks has ranged from 51 to 75. During the last week given—the seven days ending with June 9—it was 58. Arrivals and sailings in British ports since the intensive submarine campaign began have averaged about 2500, but these tyclude channel sailings. The British figures do not give the tonnage of vessels sunk, but officials here say 5000 tons probably would be a fair average for vessels of more than 1600 tons destroyed. Computing the total at that average and putting the average of the smaller ships at 1000 tons, the total lose during slightly less than four months’ submarine warfare would reach 1,74,000 tons, or about 260,000' tons less than the entire world’s shipping out- put during 1916. MAN DISTRIBUTING SOCIALISTIC ANTI-DRAFT CIRCULAR ARRESTED Electrician Was Leaving at Residences Literature Said to Have Been Barred From Mails. Daniel Weller 3741 Palm street, an electrician for the Union Electric Light and Power Co., was arrested about 3 a. m. today while distributing socialistic and anti-conscription circulars: from house to house in the neighborhood of | his home. Inclosed in each circular was a blank petition asking Congress to sub- mit the question of the selective draft to a direct vote of the people. The circular is headed ‘‘Citizens’’ and bears a line saying it is “published by the Socialist party of St. Louis, head- quarters 940 Chouteau avehue.” It as- serts that the postoffice has refused its delivery through the mails and that 50, 000 copies are now being distributed from house to house. The circular points out that this dis- tribution has involved about $500 expense to the Socialist party, and those opposed to the Government’s military policy are asked to make this up by sending con- tributions to William M. Brandt, 940 Chouteau avenue. Weller is held for the Federal a‘ithor- ities and efforts are being made to learn whether others aided in distributing the . circulars. : ‘ GRAND JURY INVESTIGATES FOODSTUFF PRICES HERE Aim to Determine Whether Manipula-. tion and Artificial Causes Have Had Part in Advances.

ERBERT C. HOOVER, in a H statement on the part wom- en are expected to take in food conservation, announces these general principles of instruction: “1. To save the wheat. If we eat as usual from our harvest this year we will have little more than enough for our own supply, but we can divide with our allies if each indi- vidual makes some sacrifice by eat- ing at least one wheatless meal a day, substituting cornbread or other * cereals. 2. We want to save the meat, for our cattle and hoss re decreas- ing and we must send our alhes, so we wish every householder to buy less, to serve smaller portions and to allow no waste. „3. We wish to save the fats We consume three times the fata that are necessary for nutrition and we need them now for war. We wish no butter used in cooking; we want less butter served on the ta- ble; we want less lard, bacon and other pork products used. “4. Any deficiencies in food sup- ply, by economy along the above lines, can be amply covered by in- creasing the use of fish, potatoes, peans, peas, turnips, cabbages and vegetables generally, corn, buck- wheat, rve and rice, which we will have in abundance this harvest. „5. We want to save transporta- tion. Our railways are unable to be Sete the war pressure for muni- tlons, men and coal, so that we wish everyone to consume produets of local origin, so far as possible to buy from the local miller, the local packer, and buy and eat veg. etables grown near .home. ä 6. We preach and want everyone to preach The Gospel of the Clean Plate, to buy less foodstuffs, to serve smaller portions and to see that nothing of value,goes into the garbage can.“ N a and we hope to have the shield dis- played on every home in the United States. Promise of Support. ‘SWe have the promise of support from many hundreds of women’s organization in the recrulting*of our membership, and the women’s committee plan to take upon themselves much of the responsi- bility for this work. We feel confident that all the women’s organizations in the country will fall in with the Presi- dent's request and actively organize and support our campaign. As time presses we will need all such agencies to have their plans of campaign for pledging with the state councils of de- fense before July first. With the assistance of various trained women in the country we are formulat- ing committees on domestic economy, and from leaders in the subject of nu- trition we are forming a committee on food conservation and utilization and we propose with their advice to furnish in- formation from time to time to members of administration as to the manner in which they can best serve the national interests in food conservation.“ GEN. PERSHING’S ANCESTRY IS TRACED BACK TO ALSACE Forefathers Were Among Patriots in Westmoreland Provinclals Who | Fought Under Rattlesnake Flag. PITTSBURG, Pa., June 18.—When “Black Jack“ Pershing fights with the French, every blow he strikes will he for the home of his own ancestors as his forefathers came from Alsace. A thoroughfare there leading out from the town of Bauman is called the Pershing road. Frederick and John Pershing came tc America from Alsace in 1749 and landed at Baltimore. Records show that these two brothers lived near where Greens- burg now stands. John Pershing was one of the 94 patriots who took the “oath of fidelity and allegiance’ to form a regiment which was the nucleus of Col. Proctor’s Westmoreland Provincials, whose standard was the rattlesnake flag. Gen. Pershing is a descendant of Fred- erick Pershing and is the fifth in line. Both his father and grandfather were born where Bradenville, Westmoreland County, is now located, 12 miles east of Greensburg. In 1855 the Generals father went Wost and settled in Laclede, Mo., where the General was born. The Rev. J. H. Pershing of Greensburg, who with his wife celebrated his golden wedding anni- versary a week ago, is a cousin of the General, — — — . ³ÄA 1 A FT ER the heavy picnic dinner when your stomach is over- burdened— CHEW YUCATAN MONDAY EVENING, JUNE 1 a — — . — * “ee 8, 1917. BILL “TO BRING FOOD CROOKS OUT INTO SUNLIGHT” Chairman 1 in House Ex- plains Control Measure Will Not Harm Honest Business iness. FORESTALLS _ OPPOSITION No War Ever Won by Debating Society; Time for Getting Down to Brass Tacks.” n SE BS 9 June 18.—To bring „food crooks out into the sunliglit, but not to injure honest business is the airn of the food control bill, Chairman Lever of the Agriculture Committee declared today in opening debate on the measure in the House. A wave of applause greeted his «tate- ment, adding strength to his pradicpion that the bill will pass the House by a large majority, perhaps by the dnd of the week. It is not intended that any honest business man stal be hurt,“ declared Lever. It is the erook that shall suffer in the sunlight and it is the crook, un- patriotic, selfish and greedy that we are after.“ a Opponents of the bill, under the Wader- ship of Representative Haugen of Iswa, former Speaker Cannon of lin, is end Representative Moore of Pennsylyania, were ready to lead an attack, © The contest between German autoc- racy and American democracy, said Representative Lever, will be deter- mined in the end by the character and strength of the organization which one can put against the other. Organization is the only weapon with which organiza- tion can be overcome.”’ Points to Germany’s Example, Anticipating attacks on giving che President extraordinary powers. Lever contended the situation warranted it. We must either confer the so-called autocratic powers upon the constitution- al head of our Government or ve pre- pared to have them assumed by the German Kaiser, he said. No war was ever won by a debating society. The time is upon us for getting down to trass tacks. Germany took contro] of her situation within five days after the declaration of war. The supreme duty, as well as the supreme necessity of the hour is to feed our fighting forces, the fighting forces of the allies and absolutely provide nec- essaries at living prices for our own peo- ple and as largely as we can for the civilian population of our allies.’’ Without an agency of control which would stimulate production, eliminate waste and conserve the food supply, he declared, this country cannot furnish the bulk of food to the allies. What Bill Aims At. “This bill,“ Lever said, in general ex- rlanation, aims to facilitate and clear the channels of distribution, prevent hoarding or willful destruction of neces- saries in order to enhance the price or restrict the supply; eliminate injurious speculation, regulate exchanges and beards of trade in order to prohibit un- due fluctuation of prices, unjust market manipulation or unfair or“ misleading market quotations; reduce waste includ- ing the power to regulate or completely te prohibit the use of cereals in the man- ufacture of alcoholic beverages; stimu- late production by assuring the farmer a free and open. market for his products, tnrestricted by manipulation and uncon- trolled by gambling operations. ‘‘We intend in this bill to drive from the established agencies of distribution the market manipulator, the gambler, the man who buys as cheaply as he may and sells as dearly as. he can—the Shy- lock of commerce who would rob the widow and the orphan, or füch the pen- nies from the blind man upon the street car with as much complacency and un- concern as in ordering a meal at a res- taurant. The measure we propose is a war measure pure and simple. “The bill establishes a governmental control of necessaries which shal! be ex- ercised and administered by the Presi- dent through voluntary arrangement or agreement and in co-operation with any agency or person. This is the most far- reaching and important provision of the bill and upon it we confidently rely for that sane and adequate control neces- sary to the stabilization of prices and for the satisfactory and orderly distri- bution of necessaries. Says It Would Solve Problem. “The administrative directive authori- ty is here conferred, without which any real solution of the problem of food and fuel control is impossible, and without which control the same chaos and con- fusion and waste and lost motion and manipulation and skyrocketing prices of the last few months will only be ex- aggerated and increased both for our- selves and for those for whom we fight. Under this power we propose that those who furnish the machinery whicna ‘inks up the producer and the consumer shall stand always during this war emergency in the full light of pub- licity, upon the theory that darkness is the haven of the criminal and light his death. I am nappy to believe that the great overwhelming majority, of the business men of the country engaged in distribution of necessaries are not un- willing to allow the light to be thrown upon their dealings, because I know that they are as patriotic as any class of cit- nens that we have. It is not intended that any.honest business man shall be hurt. It is the crook that shall suffer in the sunlight and it is the crook, un- patriotic,, selfisl and greedy that we are after. The people, Lever added, are not de- ceived in the present food situation. They trust the President, he deciared, and Congress must and will grant the powers to him proposed by the bill. _ A letter from President Wilson to Rep- resentative Borland was made public. in which the Presidert warned opponents of the bills that should they defeat them they must be prepared to take the responsibility for food conditions and prices which were predicted to follow. UMA VOTES FOR OFFENSIVE AGAINST GERMANY AT ONCE Declares tinued Inactivity at Front Would Be Treason. PAN. RUSSIAN CONGRESS ——růů —— — All Councils of Workmen and Soldiers Represented — Grimm’s Expulsion Approved. PETROGRAD, June 18.—The Duma, in secret session, has passed a resolution for an immediate offensive by the Rus- sian troops. The resolution \declares a separate peace with Germany or prolonged in- activity on the battle front would be ignoble treason toward Russia's allies, tor which future generations never would pardon the Russia of the present day. ' “The Duma therefore considers,“ the resolution adds, that t vafety of Russia and the maintenance of thé Iſber- ties which have been obtained lie in an immediate offensive in close co- opera- tion with Russia’s allies,” #The announcement last week that the Cabinet had decided to suggest a con- ference of the entente allies for exam- ination of treaties was followed by the publication of the note sent to the other Governmerts in question, The note sug- gests a conference to revise the agree- ments existing among the allies as to war aims, with the exception of the London agreement, which provides that none of the signatory Powers shall con- clude a separate peace. The first act of the Pan-Russian Con- gress of all Councils of Workmen's and Soldiers’ Delegates, upon which de- pends that immediate destiny of Russia in regard to both international and do- mestic questions, was to ratify the ex- pulsion by the provisional Government of the Swiss Socialist, Robert Grimm, who is reported to have been the me- dium through which the Germans at- tempted to arrange a separate peace with Russia. Ccngress assembled immediately after the delegates had elec as their presi- dent N. C. Tcheidge, president of the rtrograd Council of Workmen’s and Soldiers’ Delegates. Grimm’s expulsion was approved by the passage, with a vote of 640 to 121, of a resolution in- dorsing the action of M. Tsertelli and M. Skobeleff, Socialist members of the Cabinet. who investigated the activities of the Swiss Socialist and trought about the order for his expulsion. The Congress expressed the view thet the action of the Minjsters ccrrespond- ed perfectly with the interests of the Russian revolution and the Socialist in- ternationale. It welcomed the decision of the Ministers to publish the full de- tails regarding the Grimm affair, Lansing’s Message to Russia on Sending of Root Mission Published. WASHINGTON, June 18.—Secretary Lansing's communication to Foreign Minister Tereschtenko of Russia, an- nouncing the sending of the American high commission under Elihu Root was today made public by the State Depart- ment. The mission, giving representation to the varlous elements“ of the country, is stated to be prepared to “confer upon the best ways and means to bring about effective co-eperation between the two Governments in the prosecution of the war against German autocracy, which is today the gravest menace of all demo- cratic Governments.”’ — the opening of debate with bursts of applause and approval. In the Senate the opposition also was ready.

Peace — Would Cover Period of Elections to Constitu- tional Convention — Joker in Published Plan. — COPENHAGEN, June 8. — The Ger- man Government is considering an offer of an armistice to Russia for the period of the elections to the Russian constitu- tional convention. The Associated Press has this infor- mation from 4 reliable source. The informant, who has just come from Ger- many, says that Government agents are desirous of ieaching some such ar- rangement, not only as a compliment to the Russian councir and to encourage the growth of pro-German sentiment, but also because Germany desires to see some stable Government established there without which it would be impos- sible to enter into negotiations. He cites one of the best-known German parlia- mentarians as saying that the present authorities in Russia are not ‘‘verhand- lungsfaehig,’’ that is, not capable of negotiating, and that there is little hope of peace so long as the present condi- tions in Russia continue. The German newspapers which have arrived thus far print the German So- cialists’ memorandum on peace terms without comment, the Vorwaerts alons accompanying the memorandum with a column explanation of motives and hopes, But many of the papers com- ment on’ President Wilson's recent] speech and his message to Russia, and on the Nord Deutsche Allgemeine Zei- tung’s semi-official statement thereon, which is treated as an official invitation to the Russian authorities to negotiate peace on a basis of no indemnities or anexations. “No Obstacle to Peace.” The Nord Deutsche Zeitung’s words, “This formula presents no obstacle to peace between Russia and the allied (Teutonic) Powers, which have never demanded from Russia annexations and contributions,“ of course contains a “joker” in the use of the word annexa- tions,” instead of ‘“‘céasions’ of terri- tory, the Imperial Chancellor's repeat- ed declarations that the lands wrested from Russia and now occupied by the Teutonic troops should not be allowed to go back to Russia being still in force. The erection of Russian Poland into a buffer kingdom dependent upon Ger- many and with a Hapsburg monarch, toward which the Austro-German au- thorities are still laboring, is, strictly speaking, not annexation, though the intended result is the same. The Ger- man plans, however, go further than the erection of a German buffer state from Russian Poland. The same papers which contained the Nord Deutsche Allegemeine Zeitung's expression of friendship for Russia and of the desire of the central Powers to reach a friendly agreement, on the prin- ciple of a give and take arrangement which would insure a permanent friend- ly, peaceful and neighborly relationship with Russia, print with awkward coin- cidence an account of a meeting of the recently formed German Baltic society, under the protectorate of Duke Johann Albrecht of Mecklenberg, in which the German designs on Russia’s Baltic prov- inces were openly avowed. What Annexationists Want. German official representatives were present at the meeting. Duke Johann Albrecht, who also is president of the German Colonial Society before which Dr. Solf, Secretary of the Colonies, last week in the name of the Chancellor, ex- plained Germany's colonial war aims, declared that Lithuania and the Baltic provinces were as necessary to Ger- many’s future as they are for German settlement, saying: “It is impossible to conceive of land more adapted for colonization than we should have in Lithuania and in the Bal- tic provinces. One-third of holdings of the nobles will be placed voluntarily at our disposal; one-third of the peasant lands can be olftained in the same way against compensation. Twenty-two per cent of the social lands of the Courland belongs to the crown. So, there will be plenty of land for settling 8 emigrants and German colonists expelled from Russia. After the heavy sacrifices of this war the revivification of national vitality through German col- onization in the East is one of the vital questions of the German empire.“ Subsequent speakers demonstrated that > ‘The tft majority of the House greeted t a, * dar for debate later in the day. —̃ñ ͤ bͤ——— THE ARISTOCRAT of SUMMER 1 SUITINGS ‘AERPORE’ A FEATHER WEIGHT SILK AND WORSTED ‘FABRIC OF A VERY FINE TEXTURE.

The German papers have not been per- mitted to print the news of Von Hinden- bure’s peace overtures to the Council of Workmens’ and Soldiers’ Deputies at Petrograd. Swiss Interpretation of German Peace Offer to Russia. STOCKHOLM, June 18.—Additional de- tails of the German peace offer to Rus- Yeia are contained in the Social Demokra- ten's translation of the telegram, said to have been addressed by A. Hoffman, a member of the Swiss Federal Council, to Robert Grimm, a Swiss Socialist, who has been in Russia for some time. (Grimm’s expulsion from Russia has been ordered.) The newspaper's version of the tele- gram contains the following: „Jam convinced that Germany and her allies would immediately take up peace negotiations at the wish of Rus- sia’s allies. As to what concerns the German war aim, you can read articles in the Nord Deutsche Allgemeine Zeit- ung. There, after consultation with Chancellor von Bethmann-Hollweg, the declaration has been made regarding an- nexation to the effect that Germany does not desire any increase in her terri- tory or any economic or political ex- pansion.”’ The Associated Press correspondent found the agents of the central Powers here eager to picture Grimm in the light of a bitter opponent of Germany, who could not be induced to have any dealings with the empire. Vienna Fremdenblatt View of Ger- man Attitude Toward Russia. AMSTERDAM, June 18.—The Vienna Fremdenblatt says that the statement of the Norddeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung will dissipate all doubt about the Ger- man Government’s firm resolve in re- gard to peace with Russia without an- nexation or indemnities. The paper adds, however, that such declarations only indicate the general character of the peace to be concluded, and con- tinues: “More precise stipulations for this peace, for example, in regard to the Po- lish state and the foundation of friendly relations with Russia, must first be set- tled by direct negotiations.’’ Pan-Germans Perturbed Over Peace Declarations to Russia. AMSTERDAM, June 18.—The Pan-Ger- man newspapers are greatly perturbed over what the Vorwaerts, the Socialist organ of Berlin, terms the first, if only partial commitment of the Government to the formula of peace without annex- ations or indemnities,“ in the statement of the semi-official Norddeutsche Allge- meine Zeitung of Berlin concerning President Wilson’s note to Russia. The Post says the Government: runs the risk of being pinned down quite lit- erally to peace without annexations or indemnities, even if not until the day when negotiations between Germany and Russia really begin. The Neueste Nachrichten of Berlin is angry at the continueus repetition of these declara- tions to Russia. Invention Office in Chicago.

WASHINGTON, June 18.—The admin- istration is equarely behind the project to appropriate $600,000,000 for the devel- opment of the aviation branch of the American army and navy on a huge! scale, as the most effective and imme- date contribution this country can make to the allied cause. While the sum which President Wilson’ will urge Congress to provide without delay is immense, administration offi- clals believe the future will demonstrate that its expenditure was the best made by our Government in the war. Members of Congress in close touch with the plans of the Government dis- closed the fact today that the President corftemplates sending to the Capitol this week an estimate for $600.000,000 for the construction of airplanes, hydroairplanes and other aircraft and the training of aviators in large numbers to carry the Stars and Stripes over the fighting lines in Europe. Less than five years ago a request that Congress appropriate $50,000 for avi- ation raised a hubbub on Capitol Hill. In the last two and a half months a total of something like $60,000,000 has been appropriated for aviation in the army and navy. While this represents a great advance, Congress is now to be asked to boost the total tenfold, in or- der that we may, as Gen. Squier, head ot the service, puts it, put the Yanket punch” into the war in Europe, by fur- nishing thousands of American eyes for the allied armies and that of Gen. Persh- ing. Secretary Baker issued a statement saying the United States could build thousands of airplanes and train thou- sands of aviators without interfering in the slightest with plans for building up armies and for supplying the allies with food and munitions. He asserted that the proposed addition to the air forces of the allies would be proportionately of far greater value than any aid which America can supply on land. He said that according to the best available figures there are about 7,000,- 000 soldiers on the western front today. The addition of a few infantry units will mean little except in a moral way, he pointed out, but he declared with. the allies ani the Germans fighting on about even terms as to man power and aircraft, a few thousand trained aviators, with machines for their use, might spell the whole difference be- tween victory and defeat. He referred to the shipping problem also, and to the economy as to space in sending airmen and aircraft o Europe, as compared with the requirements for dispatching troops in effective numbers. POLICE PATROL AND AUTO COLLIDE; 3 PERSONS - HURT Patrolman and Signal Officer Among the Imjured; Woman Kunocked Down in Another Accident. One woman and two men were slight- ly injured in an automobile accident at „Jefferson avenue and Olive street at 1 o'clock this morning when the police patrol automobile from the Dayton Street Station collided with an auto- mobile driven by Wentworth Steele, 32 years old, of 102 North Twelfth street. Miss Anna Hocken, 38 years old, liv- ing at 4121W YFiorisesant avenue, who was in Steele’s machine, was thrown out and was cut and bruised. John Costello, 70 eyars old, signal officer on the patrol wagon, was cut on the face “and hands and his left hip was dislo- _ cated, Patrolman Fred Grabbe suffered an injury to his right leg and back. The police patrol was knocked into a store on the southeast corner and . Steele’s machine was thrown against a telephone post. Steele was arrested and charged with _ careless driving. Mrs. Marie W. Flach, 22 years old, of 7 Westgate avenue, was slightly in- jured when crossing the street at Good- fellow and the Suburban tracks by an automobile owned by Philip D. C. Ball and driven by his chauffeur, Bugene McComas, yesterday morning. Mrs. Flach had alighted from a north- . bound Hamilton car and started to cross the street when she was struck. She was cut on the lower lip and was bruised on the left leg and her left ankle was * sprained. $226,000 VERDICT FOR WOMAN, 28, WHO SUED MAN, 85 Jury's Decision Announced in Miss O'Brien's Breach of Promise Action John R.

Coates ANY good things come out M “Conditions are entirely changed from what they were three years ago.“ she said at her desk in the headquarters building, 1411 Locust street. “Glance at these records. In May, 1914, 1009 girls ap. lied for work. We were fortunate when we were able to place about 700 of thein. Last month, 520 girls registered for work and we placed 504.“ ‘My own memory serves to bear out her assertion. I recall that former'y my sympathies have been torn by tho sight of those several rooms crowded with women and girls waiting anxioue- ly, wistfully om hopefully for the chance telephone call that might be a fum- mons to a job. This day there were just two women waiting rather restless- ly and the telephone rang repeatedly but the tale of woe came from the other end Shortage of House Workers. “Tt is almost impossible to supply house workers, said Mrs. Coates. The few we do get are demanding ,0-hour days, Thursday and Sunday afternouns off, also definite evenings, §20 a month minimum wage, $30 average, and Sd cooks insist upon 8% a month, It is a troublesome condition and daily beccm- ing more complicated. But, and she sat back in her chair with ea certain air of gratification, I believe I see n the distance the clarification of the wholc big house servant problem.” The Y. W. C. A. conducts an employ- mer’ bureau for other kinds of service, too, but the domestic department always has had the preponderance of patronag>. Conditions now are the same in all de- partments and revealed the cause of the absence of seekers aft work. I found. for example, that a Liggett « Myers Tobacco Co. requisition for 100 women beginners at $1.25 a day had brought only five applicants. Electric, garment and shoe factories had had the same experi- ence and ¢alls for help from department stores had gone altogether unanswered. „The demand for help far exceeds the supply,” said Mrs. Cabell, whose desk is labeled “Clerical Employment." “When women whose male supporters had enlisted began coming in seeking employment, I wrote to many big em- ployers asking that they co-operate wiih I've had an- women before, operate and that they were anticipating of the line. ‘ — By MARGUERITE MARTYN. of war, especially to women,’’ I heard a woman say the other day. She was alluding to the democrati- zation of women through Red Cross work. Another instance of the truth of this observation is brought to my notice by Mrs. C, A. Coates, head of the domestic service employment bureau of the Y. W. C. A. Mrs. Coates is an expert in her field, not merely a specialist in placing and seeuring domestic help, but an all-around sympathizer and observer of every angle of her transactions. predicts that out of the topsy-turvy conditions in the labor market due to the war, is coming the solution of the great servant girl problem. From her vantage point she the need and expected to take women for work formerly done by men.” Have you had calls for women to re- place men where the women would have te adopt men’s attire?’ I inquired. Favors Overalls for Women. “Not yet, but we expect them And for my part,“ declared Mrs. Coates, I should like to see overalls or almost any other costume replace the bungalow apron which is the popular costume of women in factories now. The flapping apron is dangerous around machinery and, furthermore, it is not decent. We always make it a point,“ contin- ued Mrs. Cabell, to insist that these employers agree to pay the same wages to women that they have been paying men, and the employers actuated by pa- triotism are agreeing to do so. Also we are advising women not to underbid men. Women who are going to work from patriotic impulses,.to release men for the army, should either donate their services outright or should require pay equal to the men they replace in order that the standard of wages may be kept up.“ But to return to Mrs. Coates’ interest ing view of the domestic help situation “There ore innumerable faults on both sides of this question for readjustment,“ observed Mrs. Coates. Take the em- ployer's side first, for hers is the greai- er responsibility. Housewives have per- sisted in conducting their housework upon the principles belonging to the tal- low-candle age when we are living in an electric light age. These women have got to be willing to meet conditions half way, They should all this time have been profiting by the experiences of their husbands in the business world. Men employers in their relations to labor have been forced to recognize the just de- n—all n „ * a Se MAY ‘Hudson Products erence au — 000000000 2— 2 - 2— * Says Head of Domestic Employment Bureau of the V.

It has been impossible under the pres- ent system, or lack of system, to 80 standardize the trade that it could be organized, she replied. And I hope there will not be the necessity fo unions. That would add still other coin- plications. If women employers would but follow the same procedure men have established they would be acquitted . their share of blame for the servant problem, and they would find that out of the fair system of reciprocity would come greater efficiency. Men eniployers, when they hire assistants do not turn over the -vlole business to them and 85 on about occupations that have nothing to do with their business. They keep regular hours and assume their share of the lab» or executive work. All the houseworker can ask and all she is ask- ing is a «efinite business agreement and definite business relation between herself ani her employer.“ How to Establish 10-Hour Day. “But how can a housekeeper arrange to have work done within the recognize. working la of ten or eight hours, when breakfast and dinner are necessarily 10 hours apart?“ I inquired. She can arrange to allow her maid several hours off in the afternoon. Or the maid might prepare the evening mei and leave it for the mistress to serve. While I am employed downtown I ar- range to take my Thursday evening meal at a testaurant, and I prepare my Sunday evening meal myself. Wages and hours are not the only factors due for readjustment either, she continued. There are conditions of work. A girl for whom we obtained a place came back and said the wages and work were satisfactory, but that she was not getting enough to eat. The family from patriotic motives was econ- omizing and did not leave her any mea. In an ald book it is recorded that in 1825 girls in a factory struck when they still ‘lived in’ because of ‘dictation not only as to what they should eat and drink and wherewithal they should be clothed, but when they should eat, drink and sleep.’ No factory owner now would presume to dictate when or for how long the workers should leave the bulld- ing after working hours. For one thing, they no longer are required to sleep in the buildings. Factory owners have found that women worked better and accomplish more in 10 hours than in 14. And the same problem that factory own- ers solved years ago we must solve now if we do not want the houremaid to vanish entirely. Housekeepers will have to ailow time off, privileges and require only definite duties as who. they employ a trained nurse or a stenog- rapher.“ But,“ I objected. “Many housegiris are not trained as are nurses an‘ ste- nographers. The relation between do- mestic employer and helper is so much more personal than between office m- ployer and helper. I have known women to take girls into their homes who were absolutely untrained and ignorant, and teach them while paying them.” “Ah, that is the other side of the problem, responded Mrs. Coates. It is the girle who are not trained for any work whatsover who most frequently themselves for housework. And . Branch has its do. And ‘tf they will N i 16 5 under a new system would be abie to demand and to get workers who will be so expert that she can forget about it and follow her preferred pursuits. Or the woman whose purse is limited might take untrained assistants at lower Wages, it being understood that they are apprentices receiving an appion- tice's wage, and not to have the work of an expert heaped upon them. Let us hear of housekeepers who are experimenting in the limitations of hours, some maintaining an eight-hour day, others a 10-hour day, and others who are making a beginning by making definite the hours of time off each day. Girls of real intelligence who never were willing to consider housework oefore vill be eager to enter the occupation en the new business vasis. “A section of an emergency Lilletin gotten out by our National Board statex the situation as I see it: ‘Because of tn» demand for women workers in all indus- trial and commercial occupations, there will be an increasing shortage of labor for household employment. Young Women's Christian Association bureaus should be assured cf two facts: (a) That the work to be done is of real value to the family and therefore to the nation, so that there may be a legitimate appeal to the women workers to choose the home work in preference to the factory. (b) That the conditions of work and hours of work conform to industrial standards so that young women choos- ing household employment should not appear to be discriminated against and discredited in the orinion of the indus- trial world. The present situation offers long - looked-for opportunity to place houge- hold employmen: on the sound basis it deserves. Employers, employes and bu- reaus should co-op2rate to accomplish this end.

Director of Streets and Sewers Tal- bert, having under consideration 4 rem- edy for the increasing number of auto- mobile accidents in which persons are run down and injured, today again called attention to the need of strict po- lice enforcement of traffic ordinances and regulation, and to the necessity of collecting fines for violations. _ “The proper remedy,’ he pointed out, would be for teaming interests, the Auto Club, retall merchants, and other com- mercial, industrial and ciyic organiza- tions to represent themselves in the po- lice courts by an attorney, or somebody designated for the purpose, to urge a penalty in every case of violation of any traffic ordinance or regulation. “Fines will cure violations. Violators must not be excused because of their frequent plea that they are only one of a hundred or more who are driving about town in the same way. Director Talbert pointed out that it was commonly known that vehicle drivers are growing more careless daily in their failure to observe traffic ordinances and regulations. Machines are parked im- properly, drivers are careless about lights on machines and indifferent to police warnings pasted on their ma- chines; many pass street cars which have stopped to discharge or take on pacsengers, and others disregard speed regulations. These things, the Director explained, are the principal causes of the growing list of casualties. Need for Ordinance. He cited the need for ordinances regu- lating traffic. At present the police de- pend mostly upon traffic regulations |fixed by the street and police depart- ments. There is no way to penalize vio- lations of these regulations, unless driv- ers ignore directions given by policemen, in which event they are subject to fine for misdemeanor. There is no ordinance requiring park- ing of machines on one side of a one- way street. A traffic regulation covers this, and when policemen paste a warn- ing on a machine the drivers simply ig- nore it. The prohibition against passing street cars that have stopped to discharge or take on passengers, is contained in an old ordinance which antedates the auto- mobile. It states that vehicles are for- bidden to pase street cars unless there is a six-foot clearance between the street car and the vehicle, and that this regu- lation applies only in congested districts. The ordinance fails to define the district Within the last 18 months, however, an ordinance has been passed, fixing the district between Fourth and Twelfth streets, and Washington avenue and Market street, as a congested digtrict. This ordinance is not considered effec- tive. Director Talbert again called attention to the fact that traffic policemen down- town could not continue their usefulness it they had to arrest every traffic vio- lator, inasmuch as the policemen wouid have to spend the greater part of next day in courts, and their posts might re- main vacant. New State Law on Driving. He poined out that a general revision ot traffic ordinances soon will be neces- sary to conform with a new State law, passed by the last Legislature, and ef- fective Jan. 1, next. The State law makes many changes in auto regulations gov- erning speed, lights and equipment. In relation to speed, it provides merely for “careful driving’’ and atempts only to punish careless driving.“ The question of speed enters only in driving at 2 miles or more an hour, continuously for a half mile or greater distance, in which event this is ‘presumptive evidenee of careless driving.“ Director Talbert says that traffic po- dicemen in some cases are alert and active in enforcing even the traffic reg- ulations. In other cases they are indif- ferent. He added that to depend upon obtaining convictions by misdemeanor, growing out of failure to obey a police- man's directions, presupposes the police- man is on the job, sees the violation and forbids it. ’ “Old Friend” Calls and Rebs Family. James Jackson of 3114 Bell avenue last nuight reported to the police that he and his wife were visited at their home about 11 o'clock by two men, one of whom was an old friend, who held him up at the point of a revolver and robbed him of $2.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo., June 18.—The Greene County Grand Jury today started an investigation of circum- atances surrounding the kidnaping and death of baby Lloyd Keet. Pros- ecuto: O'Day departed yesterday for Kansas City to make further investi- gations. He said his recent trip to Oklahoma was productive of materia) evidence. Two writs of habeas corpus for the release of the four prisoners i- jail at Stockton and for Claude Pilersol and Cletus Adams at Kansas City, will be asked for today. An information charging Piersol and Adams with murder in the first degree in connection with the death of the Keet baby was filed yesterday after- noon in a local Justice Court. The charge was preferred upon telegraphic advices from Prosecutor O'Day at Kan- sis City. Warrants also were issued for the arrest of Piersol and Adams. It is alleged that they murdered the Keet| baby by strangling. The warrants were given to Sheriff Webb late in the after- noon and he ieft last night for Kansas City to serve them. The issuance of the warrants at this time is understood to be for the purpose of frustrating any attempt by the accused men's attorneys to obtain their releases from jail on bond. The Greene County Court this after- noon authorized the payment of a re- ward of $1000 for the arrest of the kid- napers. In a telephonic statement from Gov. Gardner shortly before noon the offer of a State reward of $300 for each of the murderers was authorized. Assistant Prosecutor Noe has appoint- ed Joe W. Williams cashier of the Bank of Commerce, to act as secretary of a reward fund. It is expected at least $10,000 will be raised, many wealthy residents having expressed willingness to contribute Hberally to such a fund. REDDING HELD FOR GRAND JURY IN WHITE MURDER Defendant Weeps at Inquest Wen Wife Goes on Stand and He Is Removed From Reom. Dee Redding of 4020 Westminster place was ordered held for the grand jury on u homicide charge today after an inquest into the death of Alexander M. White, a trombone player, whom Redding shot and killed last Friday. Redding wept when his wife, Maude, took the stand, and he was removed from the inquest room. Mrs. Redding told of the shooting at the Westminster place address where she runs a boarding house. She said her husband had been jealous of her for years and had com- plained of White's presence in the house. White went there as a roomer about a month ago. Several witnesses testified that there was no cause for Redding's jealousy. Mrs. Catherine Tesson said that shortly before the shooting Redding told her his wife had ordered him from the house and he was going to start something. Fear, she said, caused her to lock her- self in the bathroom. Later she saw Redding hunting for his wife with a revolver in one hand and an iron bar in the other. Redding took the stand but refused to testify when teld any statement he made might be used against him. Burgiare Raid Chestnut street Bar.

Discontent with existing methods has been long general among the more advanced Liberals and reform- ers among the other parties of the left. Internal and external difficulties arising from the war have served to heighten } and increase it, and it has gained among the other parties. Even former Premier Maura, leader of the Conservatives, agrees that there is ground for dissat- isfaction. Senator Romeo, editor of the Corre- spondencia de Espana, summed up the general grievance in a forcible article re- cently. He wrote: “We ought all to {mitate the soldiers in refusing to be downtrodden a moment longer. The soldiers have shown us the only way possible an organization with the firm determination to carry our point regard - less of sacrifice. Tired of Favoritism. “The whole of Spain with the excep- tion of a thousand families who monop- olize the sweets of office, is sick to death of the favoritism which condemns the country to external stagnation and is only waiting for the signal to rise like one man and do away with it for- ever Favoritism is the canker which is killing Spain and will put an end to her unless we put an end to it.“ The Officers’ Defense Committees de- mand briefly that rewards’ shouli be proportionate to service and that pro- motion should be by merit, with due re- gard to the claims of seniority. Their action was on the whole well received by the public and brought about the downfall of the Brieto administration. The example is being followed all over the country. Defense committees of all sorts of professions and trades, as well as of Government servants, are spring- ing up everywhere. At Cordova a number of prominent men, including engineers, university professors, manufacturers, workmen and priests have published a manifesto de- manding a new political system totally different from that hitherto in exist- ence and urging the formation of de- fense committees similar to the officers’ organizations throughout the country. In the meanwhile there is a growing movement in favor of the reopening of Parliament. Three Liberal Deputies, Senors Darriobero, Basolga and Pache- ca, have addressed a manifesto to the Senators and Deputies protesting against the closing of the Cortes under the present circumstances. Premier Confident, It seems that the Government wishes to allow time for the agitation to die down before submitting a solution of the grave problems raised by the army of- ficers and by the labor troubles. Premier Dato, in an interview yesterday, said: “The whole question is to know how to meet the aspirations of the country. The Government is, therefore, taking note of all claims of grievances and jus- tice will be done without delay. We shall be guided by judgments of public opinion. We do not pretend that we live opinion. Wd oo not pretend that we live in an Arcadia, but we think we can say that we have brought about a relaxation of the strained situation which permits us to view the future with confidence.” Among the steps the Government is taking is a reorganization of the higher commands in the army which is being studied by the Minister of War, Gen. Primo-Rivera. While Premier Dato en- joys general respect, his confidence in the outlook is not altogether shared by political observers, who unanimously agree that the situation continues one of extraordinary difficulty. Conference With U. 8. Envoy. The Marquis de Lem, Spanish For- eign Minister, has had long interviews with the American Ambassador and with the Spanish Ambassador to Great Britain, who has just arrived here. Aft- erward he conferred for two hours with Premier Dato, following which the Pre- mier met the Italian Ambassador and the Minister of Finance. Premier Dato told the newspaper re- porters that the Government did not intend to exercise any censorship against criticiams of the present ministry or against the administrations of Count Ramonones or Marquis Prieto, but would forbid attacks against persons in MUNDAY EVENING, JUNE 18, 1917. — ee ———— — How's This? radical rebuilding of the whole political |. — — ee Corns Lift Out With Fingers -- No Pain! — — Thanks to a new discovery made from a Japanese product, your foot troubles can be quickly ended.

He also said that attacks which might prejudice the Government's foreign pol- icy or military discipline would be pro- hibited.

ARRESTED — MONDAY EVENING JUNE 18, 1917. — — P — ON LIQUOR CHARGE! Two Recruits Accused of Taking Whisky Into Barracks; Clean- up Campaign General. The arrest Saturday of. two Jefferson Barracks “rookies” on & charge of tak- ing liquor ‘into the Barracke reservation public’ today. The recruits, William Robinson and William Siaman, were recent arrivals from Chicago, and were not in uniform, Internal Revenue Department agents Saturday afternoon saw them leaving a saloon at Telegraph and Barracks roads and heading for the reseryation. They followed the men and arrested them in- side the grounds. Four bottles of beer and a half pint of whisky were found in their possession, the agents say. The saloon keeper is not blamed for mak- ing the sale, as the men were not in uniform. The campaign of the commission on Military Training Camp Activities against immorality and the sale of liquor to soldiers is not aimed particularly at St. Louis. “Please correct this impression, if such impression was created by any- thing I was quoted as saying.“ said Raymond B. Fosdick, civilian chairman of the commission, in a letter received today by George M. Brown, president of the St. Louis Branch of the National Security League. “There is a nation-wide movement to clean up conditions in the vicinity of army camps and posts, as a matter not only of morals, but of military efficien- cy. The reports coming from St. Louis in regard to conditions, particularly in the County, were such as to lead us to believe that immediate action should be taken. We are confident, of course, that the county and city authorities will co- operate to the utmost, and that the con- ditions complained of will be remedied at once.

The altar was placed in a music stand on a slight ele- vation above the shaded ground where the audience sat, stood or knelt in dif- ferent parts of the services. The Rev. Father E. C. McFadden was ‘celebrant of the mass, and the Rev. Father J. J. O’Brien preached the ser- mon, which was of a patriotic character. Father O’Brien spoke of the charges of vice conditions around the Barracks ag being nothing more than slander,”’ and said that Col. Irwin, the commandant, ‘had done all in his power to look after the soldier’s spiritual interests. The Knights of Columbus Choral Club, under the direction of William T. Deibel, sang Perosi's mass. Soldiers in khaki served as acolytes at the altar. Following the service the fleld head- quarters of ‘the Knights of Columbus, built by the St. Louis members of the order for the use of the soldiers, were dedicated, with talks by Father Mc- Fadden, Joseph Kane, Col. Irwin and others. BODY OF NEGRO GIRL, AGED 7, IS FOUND IN AN ASH PIT Negro Laborer Confesses to Mutilat- ing and Choking the Child to Death.

Co.) STOCKHQLM, June 18.—There never has been so much talk in Germany about food as there is today. Food continues to be the principa!, the almost absorb- ing topic of conversation and thought. There is almost as much food news as war news in the papers, and much of it is suggestively fascinating. In a private letter I received recently from Southern Germany my correspond- ent wrote: “Everybody is too busy wondering whut he will get to eat next to bother much about America's entry into the war.” This statement may be accepted as representative of the present German state of mind. There are signs of anxic- ty verging on nervousress cropping out among the masses regarding the food situation. In consequence of this under- current the newspapers are filled with official, semi-official and inspired“ as- surances that there is no cause for alarm. The frequency with which these an- nouncements are being issued, cou- pled with the fact that the food au- horitfes almost continually issue stat ments that Germany can hold out to a victorious peace, are higtMy significant. Climax Near at Hand. The authorities know and the public is beginning to realize that the climax of the hunger war is close at hand; that the gravest food crisis is due between now and the middle of August, and that if this critical period is safely bridged over there will be another pe@iod of higher lying. depends on the crops. Germans will live through the next two months with the certainty that they will not stafve by fall, but under the ominous shadow of a famine thereafter Recently the German Socialist Sas- senbach, attending the Stockholm con- ference, said : It's scarce—but it goes. This epigram might well_be used for Germany's food for the balance of the war. Germany is still able to draw on ite two lines of strategic food reserves first, her immense supply of livestock which, despite the army’s requirements, numbers more than 20,000,000 head and forms the first food line of defense dgainst famine; and, second, her huge quantities of canned, preserved and dessicated food product reserves, whicn were unostentatiously drawn from con- sumption last summer and fall and jealously hoarded by the bureaucratic authorities against the present emer- gency. People Stoical in Spirit, These food reserves are now being dispensed with rigid caution in almost homeopathic quantities to the German people. The masses are able to eke out a bare existence but not much more, In view of still large reserves, official as- surances that Germany can hold out until the new harvest may be accepted in full as a fact to be calculated with, although there is no statistical materiat available as te the one really vital question—what food balance of clandes- tinely hoarded reserves can be carried forward into the new year, and how long it will last in case of another crop failure, with realization that in this eventuality even peace would work no change for better. Still, the spirit of the German people as a whole continues to be one of stoical fatalism, and refusal! to believe that the weather gods will fail to be with them. In general the situation today may be summarized as follows: Food conditions in Berlin are bad. In other large cities they range from bad to reasonably poor. In the Prussian provinces and in South Germany they are fair to middling. In a few fat food district conditions are good. The gravity of the general situation and the realization that Germany will only squeeze through with the smallest imaginable margin is reflected in the increasing number of food restrictions. Other tentative measures also betray the growing gravity, such as the move- ments to send thousands of Berlin school children into the country over the sum- mer and the projected mobilization of] older school boys and high school stu- dents as agricultural laborers. Prof. Paul Hildebrand, a famous ped« agogue, wrote recently: “The grave danger of malnutrition now threatens the youth of the capitai. In Berlin a state of need now prevalis. Our school children would be better off outside. Another significant symptom is the rigid food regulation applying to trav- elers in Germany, which goes into effect today. Before starting on your jour- ney you must now turn over to the au- thorities all your unused food cards with the exception of the imperial meat soup card, and obtain official certifi- cates that you have done so. Othep- wise when reaching your destination you cannot get new food cards. Old and New Cards Used. These stringent regulations are neces- sitated by the fact that many who could afford it obtained additional and in some cages double rations before leaving towns, and cards as well as the new ones at their destination. The favorite means of getting a fair meal in Germany has been to have a doctor prescribe extra food rations. This practice assumed such proportions as to become a grave menace. Stringent measures are being taken to see that only bona fide convalescents o¥tain prescriptions for extra food. One learns of increasig numbers of cases of blood poisoning as the resulting eating bad fish and other bad Yood. Food frauds and thefts are likewise on the increase. These cases are sometimes humorous. As an example detective. recently at midnight searched a sus- picious looking baby carriage and found that instead of a baby it contained hams.

We associate charity with blizzards and hard times; a just as hungry without food in summer as they do in winter—that sick so, in hot weather as it is in cold. We forget that times of general prosperity do not bring relief to the widowed mother of little children—that the aged and infirm are no better off because there is plenty of work which they could do if they were able. Nor do we stop to think that the greatly increased cost. of living has put thousands of families in a position where they need help, because the dollars they earn cannot be stretched to cover their needs. St.Louis Provident Association — AO LL LLL ALE LLL I — — —B— — — — ——— ¼ m — ͤä— . 9 * MONDAY EVENING, JUNE 18, 117. ee — — * EE — — — — — — . ˙ 2 ͤ . ˙ LS ALLL does not forget these things, because its workers are brought in touch with them every day. This great-hearted friend of the unfortunate looks after the distressed in St. Louis to the very limit of its ability. It does not dispense charity with a lavish hand — neither does it hand out begrudgingly the aid sought by the unfortunate. Every case which comes to its attention is in- vestigated in a thorough but kindly way. No worthy applicant need shrink from its investiga- tion no unworthy impostor can hope to defraud it. 1 Help which does not pauperize Indiscriminate and unwise giving of money, food, clothing, etc., will pauperize families and make them permanently de- pendent upon charity. In cases where material help is actually needed, the Provident Association supplies it, but also imme- diately seeks to find the cause of the poverty and helps the 3 fortunate to remedy it. It helps the family to help itself By showing the way thus lifting families out of their poverty by making them self-supporting and no longer a burden on the community. | It finds work for the unemployed. It finds suitable work for the handicapped. . It makes a permanent provision for those who cannot work. : It finds medical care for the sick. It gives instructions in hygiene and thrift. It puts families and individuals in touch with Churches, Sunday Schools, Settlement Workers and other help- ful agencies. It communicates with friends or relatives who may help. It prosecutes men who refuse to support their families. Facilities for finding the needy Through many citizens, physicians, teachers, charitable, social and religious organizations, as well as by its own workers, the Provident Association has unusual facilities for finding those who need help. Also, by special arrangement with the Chief of Police, all policemen report immediately by phone all families or individuals they find in distress. Through a similar arrangement with the superintendent of instruction the attendance officers and nurses of the public schools report daily to the Provident Associ- ation the names of any children kept out of school by poverty. Relief stations scattered throughout the city Five relief stations are so located throughout the city that it is unnecessary for those seeking help to go far for it. These stations also enable the Association workers to keep closer in touch with those cases where help must be taken to the needy. Summer health camp for women and children This is a new,and very necessary work just started by the Provident Association. The camp is located at Kimmswick, Mo., on the bluffs overlooking the Mississippi, just south of St. Louis. Here a big 24-room house, with large shaded grounds will com- fortably accommodate from 30 to 50 mothers and small children. Two or three weeks in the country with plenty of fresh air and good food will do wonders in restoring health and strength to sickly mothers and children, convalescents and others whose lives depend upon fresh air, good food and healthful surroundings. The camp is in charge of a graduate trained nurse, and a doctor is within call and will come as often as needed. This is a real charity and one which no other organization in St. Louis provides. 1 4 * ———ů ů — — — r — — Oe ome — — — — \ No restrictions as to race, nationality or religion Any person anywhere in the city of St. Louis who deservingly needs help, no matter what his race, religion or nationality may be, will find a friend in the Provident Association. Let the Provident Association adminster your charities Nearly every citizen of St. Louis contributes something to charity—either money, food, clothing, or all of them. Much of this giving is deserved and does good—much of it, through no fault of the giver, goes where it is not the most needed. Is it not better to give this help through the Provident Association, where you know that it will be used without waste, imposition or overin- dulgence? Would it not be a satisfaction to you to know that your contributions go only to the worthy—that necessary investiga- tions would be made by persons trained in the work, without imposing on your time?, Wouldn’t it be gratifying to know that your money is going further through the Provident Association in relieving want than it would by direct giving? You can be sure of these things if you will make your con- tributions to charity through the Provident Association. Charitable work to be efficient must be systematic. In the Provident Association it is not only systematized, but sympathetic. All contributions go to relieve want none to support the Association The Provident Association administrative work is supported by endowment, so that all contributions are used in giving aid and service to the unfortunate. In giving through the Provident Association, you may know that every dollar is used in relieving want and helping the unfortunate to get on their feet. The Provident Association works one that every St. Louisan able to-do so should support. Your support will be.appreciated now—to provide for the work in ‘hand—and hereafter for the great and necessary work that never fails to present itself, even: in the best of times. We want the support of those who can only afford to give a little, but who want to know that what they can give is well used. Such contributions are most desirable. Also we want the support of those who can give liberally. We want not only contributions of money, but also of food and clothing and household goods. The Provident Association is a permanent institution, doing a necessary work, that is limited only by the contributions made through it by St. Louis citizens. Won’t you look upon the Provi- dent Association not merely as something to give to once and then be forgotten, but rather as a permanent means of dispensing your own charities, and, as such, plan to give to it regularly each year a definite sum? In this way your own charitable work will be 8 your time saved, and your efforts made to count for e mos ͤ——— — — ge Eb A — e ˙—.

E. was only 15 and they told him his . mother had tuberculosis in an advanced stage. 3 It was rather a staggering blow to a young A. chap. Up until now they had been able to manage somehow together since the father had deserted them; but the nurse told him that his ‘ mother must not do any more work, and that they should get out of the one room in a poor tenement where they lived in crowded q without sunlight and air. They might as well have told him that she ht to be sent for @ * to Europe, so impossible did it seem. ut the next day a friendly young woman came to see them who said she n sent by the nurse. She talked with them a gréat deal about their situation, asking various ques- tions, and finally told them that it might be possible to do some of the things that the nurse suggested. The boy was working at night in an iron found and his wages were s l and he needed clothes and so did his mother. When he awoke the next morning his mother’s face was smiling, and there was a bundle of warm things for them both which had been sent by the pleasant young lady who had been there the day before, and she had told them that there had been found two very nice rooms on the second floor with windows — the south, with good air and better surroundings; that there would be furniture in these rooms in a few days, and that they were to get ready their few belongings in preparation for 1 It seemed almost too good to be true. Now it would not be necessary for the mo 12 away in order to have the conditions that e needed, and he could take care of her as long as she lived without injuring his own health. When he went to work that night he was sur- / rised to have his boss s k to him in a very * lendly way and to talk to him about the chances for his learning a trade there, and ad- vance to something better when he had reached 16 and would be permitted to work on a ma- chine, It seems that the friendly lady had been to see him and had told him about the boy and his mother and had asked him to be a father to the lad. When the boy went to see the new home which had been furnished for them he was delighted to find that it was within a block of the home of his uncle to whom he wae de- voted as to a father; that there were gees 8 and that he was near a library w he loved to go and get books to read. He discovered, too, that when he went to the ry, the librarian seemed to take particular interest in him. She suggested just the sort of bock that a 15-year- boy would enjoy ges P and encouraged him to come often. did no know that the friendly lady had talked to the librarian about him, too. During the winter days fhere were times when the furnace would break down at the Foundry and he would not have to work, and there was not enough coming in to supply his sick mother with all that she needed to keep her warm and well fed; but the lady with the kindly smile, who was a Provident Association vigitor, would 7. return ever and anon, and after her visit what eo ever was needed in the family. would be sent the next day. Because he was relieved of worries at home the boy took a greater interest in his work and was svon advanced to a place where he received a much better wage, and so through the long weary months he kept the little home together “Ft and encouraged the sick mother until at last . N her days were ended and he had to close up . ae the two rooms that had meant so much of home i to him. But he had found himself; he had made * 55 his start, and now in the home of his uncle he na gpl is developing into a citizen of whom St. Louis r may well be proud. THAT’S SERVICE—IT PAYS.

Red Crown gives it to you all the time by reason of its perfect adjustment of boiling point fractions, commencing at about 95 degrees Fahrenheit and continuing in an unbroken chain to above 400 degrees Fahrenheit. No matter what you pay for gasoline, even if it be the “high test” 24c price, you will find this perfect chain of boiling point frac- tions in Red Crown alone. : RED CROWN is ; C and it vaporizes to the last drop.

The insignia of the Red Cross is international. Its fundamental principle. upon which it is found- ed and all of its labors, immunities and privileges as an organized society of mercy are based is in- ternationalism. In its work of mercy it recog- nizes no foe. Its glory is that it knows no flag, no nation, no race and no creed in succoring suf - ferers. It serves all alike.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I read with interest your editorial of May 30 in reference to food shortage and its relation to land monopoly. There is a gen- eral opinion that there is plenty available land in the West. There is some, but where it may be obtained access to ‘the markets discounts the profit of cultivating it. The speculator has anticipated the set- tler wherever market facilities and avail- able land are within reach of each other. When I say specylator I mean as well farmers who cultivate a small portion of owned land and are holding the rest for a rise. This is really the worst obstacle. They frequently do not even fence it, as Arizona taxes fences particularly. The land owner, of course, cannot be blamed. for following the course of least resistance, and the result is that real farms are scat- tered, with enormous cost of roads and public improvements. It makes the school question particularly a difficult problem. Farms and markets must exist in conjunc- tion with each other, and this speculation prevents. Land in this valley has steadily risen since high prices obtained, so that a person buying it can make no more under present high prices than before. It kills any effort. to increase acreage here. I accidentally discovered 18 64-100 acres fenced in with another farm and am proving up on it, but not one man of a hundred will be as lucky as I have been. Of course, land monopoly boosts the price of land also, but that does not blind me to the fact that it is the great- est wrong that exists. I am sorry that spe- cial interests in Missouri threw dust into the eyes of your people when the question wee up in your State. They played the game of your predatory interests. Under a land value ta-: land ownership would Le like the ownership of a horse. If the owner has good use for it, it will pay * not use it, it will eat his head off. Farnfers here generally have their own opportunity to make a living and that of several other families also, and it drives those who are cheated out of their part of our natural re- sources into the mass of employes where they cut each others’ throats to support their families. I know at least a dozen young men who would have remained here if such conditions did not exist. They are com- peting for jobs now. I am glad that the labor organizations are beginning to see this. They can help the “scab” stay at home on a farm by using their best efforts to break the strangle hold of the land spec- ulator. N. A. VYNE. Camp Verde, Aris. a Should Speed Airplane Building. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. — Tf 100,000 air machines can be made in 8 few months, as is stated in your editoria) of the 14th inst. and if they are as effective ae the 15 German planes which recently visited London, they would indeed end the wer. Let the Government make the parts of 100,000 machines, which could be turned out in the city of Detroit and other cities in Jess than 60 days, and possibly be in AUTO MECHANIC. Grammar Schools Not Strict Baough. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. " A few weeks ago in one of the high schools in St. Loulg a general examination in grammar was held for the sixth-term ination in tne sixth-term ‘inglish course and have passed, but on account of their examination ‘his state of affairs is rather surprising, inasmuch as these students had previously been passed in five terms of English by the faculty of that school. The question is—why not teach the chil- dren their grammar before they get to the ieh school? Why make the children pay for a mistake e by the School Board in not making the requirements strict enough in the first part of their education? We who are downtown in the business world hear every day the statement that high- school graduates can t ither spell correctly nor punctuate well. Better of the Post-Dispatch, not our feelings be against those compelled to commit the murder- upon the innocent women and in London, but let us all hope and to our “Bupreme Architect” of this universe that all the misery and suffering brought upon those unfortunates to satisfy the ambition of the Kaise: to conquer the’ be experienced by fhe Kaiser and — ‘the world in asserting, in article 60 of Kriegsge- the great principle of mercy that governs the Red Cross must come, let it come from our en- emies, not from us. Fortunately, Mr. Davison’s statement is not of- ficial and our protest against its partisan pas- sages is recorded merely to clarify public thought on the principles, objects and field work of the American Red Cross. We may be assured that its work will be unrestricted by considera- tions of friendship or enmity and its flag flies for all. Naturally most of its work will be concen- trated on the sufferers of America and our allies. Nor are our will and energy and effort to defeat the enemy limited by the Red Cross principle of universal service to mankind. Let us whole heartedly, therefore, combining the will to fight the enemy with the will to serve suffering humanity, go to work to supply the American Red Cross with ample funds. Its work is as important for life-saving purposes as the work of armies for fighting purposes. The $100,000,000 asked of the American people for the Red Cross is a small sum for this great, rich, powerful nation to give. The quota of $1,- 500,000 asked of St. Louisans is a bagatelle com- pared with the wealth of the city and the needs of the cause: This is a cause in which there is no disability except destitution. ‘Every man, woman and child with a cent to spare can enlist in this serv- ice. The registration should equal the earning population. Every American must feel the mov- ing impulse to see that no wounded soldier or suffering noncombatant shall be without merci- tul and helpful ministration. As in the Liberty Loan, the subscriptions to the Red Cross can be paid in installments. What will’ you give to assure aid and comfort and life to the wounded, the sick or the starving vic- tims of the war? What will you give to succor and save stricken Americans on the battle field? = = ZHAWF AND PERESHEENYA. The French are having as much trouble getting the pronunciation of Gen. Pershing’s name a8 Americans had with the name of Gen. Joffre. And the American reporters are having as much diffi- culty trying to represent the linguistic d#ficul- ties of the French in this case as they had in rep- resenting our own linguistic difficulties in the other. Each language has sounds that cannot be pho- netically illustrated in the other. The French throat can no more accommodate the ing“ ending than the American throat can accommodate the “re” ending. The Joff“ was as hard, but no harder, to us than the “Persh” is to them. Happily the principal trouble is one of pronun- ciation “‘Peresheenya” and Zhawf' will be both hard for the Teuton to masticate before the world hears the last of these two first-class fighting men. . „ GERMAN WAR PRISONERS. A news dispatch from Havre reports that the Belgian Minister of War has received information that of 2000 Belgian civilians, interned in a Ger- man camp near Lubeck, 500 have died of starva- tion during the last three months. The condi- tion of the survivors is described as pitiful. These prisoners are a portion of the ablebodied civilian population of Belgium carried off into Germany for enforced labor of a military nature, under the Von Bissing regime. It has been no secret that starvation is the common fate of all loyal Belgians thus enslaved who refuse to work and become traitors to their own country. Germany is alone among the civilized states of brauch im Landkriege, the General Staff Manual, the war right to massacre prisoners, in case of imperative necessity, It is almost idle today to discuss legal formu- lae in their application to a state whose only law is the will of ite autocratic ruler, but it is not unprofitable to point out that the moral progress of the past century has everywhere else estab- lished the principle that a quasi-contract is cre- ated between the captor and the prisoner, from the moment of capture, under which the latter's life is assured. He can forfeit his right to pro- tection only through his own renewed active re- sistance. 5 A captor unable to guard prisoners must release them, except, possibly, in the heat of action. Every civilized state has conformed to this humane prin- AN AMERICAN CITIZEN. Without in any degree abating our ardent sup- port of and enthusiasm for the work of the American Red Cross, we protest against several We cannot indorse his statement that the in- decline to give first aid to a wounded soldier of any nationality provided he is within the lines of -emplification in our electoral college, now hardly ‘fact the whole idea is virtually obsolete in this „usb frequently set Russian prisoners free the : Crimea, unger such circumstances. It was the uniform practice of the Boers in 1900 to release British prisoners whom they could not guard, after stripping them of their clothes, which they needed, and of their arms. It is true that there have been some instances of wholesale destruction of prisoners since Napo- leon slaughtered 4000 at Joffa in 1799, notably when 11,000 men of all ranks of the republican army of Mexico were shot down in cold blood by the imperialist army of Maximilian in 1865. Yet no great civilized state would stoop to cite this as an authoritative indication of the survival of this ancient, barbarous, so-called war right. When we consider that several millions of en- emy persons are prisoners in Germany, it will be seen that there is ample reason to fear that the savage brutalities of the German militarists which have so far shocked the world are yet to be outdone by more monstrous acts. == * * JAPAN’S WELCOME DELEGATION. No presumption of special difficulties can at- tach to Japan’s decision to send an official dele- gation to America. To dispatch plenipotentiaries to America is much in vogué among entente Gov- ernments just now and for Japan, a rather passive member of the entente for two years past, to fol- low their example must be accepted by the world as a matter of course. No other entente delegation has come with a larger promise of practical usefulness than the promise Japan’s will have. Conferences here may result in greater Japanese activity in the fe- maining stages of the war, European objections having previously confined her military assistance to Asia. Adjustments must also be looked. to during the long years after war, when the United States will continue the chief Power on one side and Japan the chief Power on the other side of the Pacific. Dispositions that wil remove small causes of irritation before they grow into serious ones. are as necessary/to the future peace of the world as a right settlement of the war’s greater issues. As long as Japanese opinion remains so sensi- tive as to be upset by a garbled report of an Amer- ican President’s note to China—as long as that opinion is prepared to accept such a garbled re- port as genuine and to base grave conclusions on the imposition—much can be done to improve our relations with the transpacific neighbor. | = = * 29 * r PICKING IRISH CONSTITUTION MAKEBS. The wide difference between the American and the English way of doing things is shown in the plan for creating the convention of 101 delegates which is to frame a Constitution for Ireland. Each County Council, of which there are 26, and each Borough Council is to sena {ts chairman as a delegate to the convention. John Redmond and Secretary John Lonsdale of the Unionists are per- sonally to name five delegates each to the con- vention. Four Catholic and two Anglican prelates and the Presbyterian Moderator for the island will form seven more delegates, The Irish labor unions’ and the Dublin, Beliast and Cork Chambers of Commerce will name delegates. Five members will be selected by the Sinn Feiners, five by the Unionist Alliance, 10 from the representative Irish peers and 15 by the London ministry. Missouri has many chairmen of Boards of Al- dermen and of county boards who, however satis- factory they may be in their present jobs, would live to unheard-of ages before they would ever be selected to help in revising the State Constitution. Furthermore, ideas here would have to undergo a remarkable change before the incumbents of high ecclesiastical station would be considered ex-officio members of a constitutional convention | or labor unions as such vested with the preroga- tive of electing delegates or political leaders per- mitted to send delegates as their personal repre- sentatives. This nondescript method of making up the Irish convention is not at all due to the difficulties of the Irish situation. A similar body for Scotland or Wales or England itself would probably be made up in the same general fashion. It is a sur- vival of the old idea that the mass of the people are not to be trusted too much, which found ex- more than a legal fiction, and the election of Sen- ators by Legislatures, now happily abolished. In country. i ee i — — INDEMNITIES OR RUIN. The speech made in the Baden Landstag by Dr. J. Reinholdt, Finance Minister of the Grand Duchy, in which he stated that the war debt of the empire was becoming unmanageable, com- bined with the renewed hectic cries for indemni- ties throughout Germany, shows clearly that the black shadow of national bankruptcy is lowering on the country. Confiscation, the last resort of a desperate nation, is near. 3 “It is necessary,” Reinholdt told the Landstag, “to consider a plan for a heavy levy on all prop- erty to reduce the war debt to manageable pro- portions. We must have an indemnity. In a few | months our war outlay will have reached 100,000,- 000,000 marks.” A debt of $25,000,000,000 against a country whose total wealth in 1914, including its colonial posses- sions, now lost, was less than $80,000,000,000, with a floating national debt of nearly $1,500,000,000— this is the situation in Germany today. In the year before the war the annual income of the country was a bit less than $900,000,000. On a basis of only 4 per cent the annual interest charges on the pres- ent national obligation would be in excess of the total revenues of its best year by $100,000,000, with a large proportion of its income sources cut off. Asa matter of fact, the average rate of in- terest on the war loans is more than 5 per cent, which adds several hundred ‘millions to the deficit. Victory with indemnities or ruin is the des- perate slogan of Germany toda), A stalemate) peace without indemnities, even though it leaves German territory as it was before the war or even with accretions will not do. The debt is growing daily and the hope of a smashing vic- tory has passed from the minds of all thinking men in the empire. it is truly a desperate situa- tion, made more desperate by the fact that the remedy is as remote as humanity is from Hohen- ciple during the last hundred years.

Thus, gur own diplomatic victory at Petrograd, though far removed from any battle front, has easily been the feature of the week just passed. Arriving there in the very nick of time, our commission at once slipped to the steering wheel, with the result that the Russian situation is more hopeful today than it has been in weeks. We toss around some light badinage as to Elihu Root, but from the way democracy is holding the road in Russia today one easily guesses that the sta- bilizing hands of none less than he are at the helm. After all, the plinthlike Elihu is a very able man, and able men are needed in Russia at this moment more than they are needed anywhere else in the world. The preponderance of unable men over there at a time of great opportunity is terrifying. Some people have thought that Elihu was exactly not the man to send upon such a delicate errand, but we imagine that if the Germans could challenge one member of the commission and send him home, they would be so glad to get rid or Root that their jubi- lance would excite suspicion. The Germans have more respect than any of us for any kind of training, and there is more mental preparedness of one kind and another in Elihu's head than most people realize. Col. Roosevelt, not given to boasting of others, once said of him that he is the ablest man in America. If, as seems likely, he is too able for the Russian social- ists, who want everybody to be a general if Russia is to continue to do her part in the war, then we shall welcome him back, perhaps, with more acclaim than we sent him off. = abdication of Constantine has been of less im- It is going to be nice if Greece can unite witR the allies and help them restore peace in the world, but Greece is not Russia. They only have the same religion. Their punch is not by any means the game. Therefore, what Greece does is of little con- sequence, while the disposition of Russia is of vital importance. Nor has the outcome of the situation in Greece ever been much in doubt. Venizelos, who has stood out for the allies through thick and thin, is 4 Greek Roosevelt, a type of man that mostly prevails in the end. (See the Post-Dispatch in about six months for T.

Mother worries and fusses over the girls’ frocks, and tells father that they REALLY MUST have things that are the very latest word in fashion or else they will be mortified to death to go among their friends. But, if there is any economizing to be done, Johnny does it. Nobody con- siders it important how he looks 80 that he is moderately clean and has only a reasonable number of darns and patches. Nobody realizes that Johnny sets just as much store upon having just the right bag to his knickers, or ag razor-edged a crease in his trousers as sister does to the get of. her skirt, and that he is just as sensitive to the boys’ comment on his ties as she is to the girls’ on her sleeves. Worse still, the small boy is ut- terly neglected in regard to the im- portant matters that are going to count big in his after life. Mother prepares sister for society, for mak- ing a good appearance in this world. She is taught how to approach people, how to enter and leave a room, and What to say.

Little Mary drops you a cour- tesy when you speak to her, and hopes you are well, and so on, but little Johnny keeps his hat on and says o'“ to a woman old enough to be his grandmother. That's why boys have to leave home when they are grown to get a start in thelr professions or business. Everybody remembers Johnny Jones as such a surly, ill-mannered little cub they can’t realize that he has developed. by the grace of God, and not through his par- ents’ fault, into a fine courteous gentle- man. Worse still, so far as the treatment accorded boys goes, is the fact that no one seems to realize that a small boy 8 the most sensitive creature on earth, and the most hungry hearted. He writhes under ridicule as under torture, yet his callous family have no hesita- tion in calling public attention to his faults and blunders, and making his mistakes the nail on which they hang the funny stories they tell to guests. That’s why boys spring up in them- selves and hide what they really think and feel, so completely that their: par- ents know less of them than they do of any stranger that crosses their path. And the small boy just aches to be petted, to be caressed, to be talked 0. and sympathized with, and unijerstood, and praised. And he so seldom gets even a kind word. It's hig faults he hears about so often that it is no wonder that one smal] boy, when asked what was his name, said that he didn’t know—that it was either Johnny Don't or Johnny Run —he was called one about as often as the other. The Japanese set apart a day to honor the small boy, exclusively and individu- ally. The Japanese small boy is courte- ous, kindly, gentle and considerate of others. He doesn't even yell like a Comanche when he plays football, and you never see him in a street fight. Perhaps he is polite because he is treated politely.

Dr. Haven Emerson, Commissioner of Health, outlined the precautions that will be taken to prevent a recurrence of the epidemic here this year. He pointed out that the ignorance of the medical men as to the control of the disease last | year was complete. Now a great deal more is known. Dr. Emerson said that it was just a year ago that the Baby Welfare Associa- tion notified the Department of Health YOU GAVE ME A NICKLE TOO MUCH MISTER, | ONLY ASKED SIX is For THE WHOLE N OF FISH of six cases of paralysis. He gave de- tails of the measures for protection, in- cluding isolation for three weeks for sufferers and two weeks for children u the same household with sufferers, that will be taken this summer. Children with normal throats, he said, are less susceptible to the disease than those who have abnormal throats and tonsils or adenoids that cause trouble. Dr. C. L. Dana, member of a joint committee of the New York Academy of Medicine and the Neurological So- ciety, argued that direct communication of the disease from person to person is clinically rare. He favored the theory that the disease is spread by its com- munication to insects and animals ‘and back again. WELL: 1 DONT Say ANYTHING ABOUT CATCHING “EM MYSELF . DID 1? ; Dr. Charles Herrman of New York — — — What Germany Expected lo Get From the U. HERE has been wide speculation as T to what plans Germany had afoot to improve her economic condition after peace comes. Information which bas been furnished to the American Government by a Consul in Switzerland reveals that Germany was depending upon our aid to a great extent in the work of rébuilding her industries. According to reports received in Berne a plan was worked out which contem- plated primarily the conservation of the German mark until the return of normal conditions. To prevent the mark from leaving the empire it was proposed that Germany replenish its depleted stores and stocks with the proceeds of short- term loans and treasury certificates ne- gotiated and sold in neutral countries, notably the United States. The success- ful culmination of this plan was to ac- complish two things—(1) to give the Ger- mans an exchange medium that was nor depreciated and enable them to liquidate such loans with German wares; (2) t» give the German mark time to recover its normal exchange value. A very important part in the work cf replenishment was to be assigned to the German mercantile marine. That marina was to be employed exclusively for the German trade. The control of all in- portations and export prices was to be lodged in Government hands. A govern- mental guarantee of payment was alse to be offered to foreign firms disposed to make 12-month credit consignments to the German trade. HRIS.

How he was going to get it when he had to stay in the office from 9 until 6 every day I ad not know. I wanted him to give up his position and let me go to work, but he would not listen to me. So I made up my mind that I wasn’t going to let him sacrifice his life for his wife and chil- dren if I could possibly help it. If he could not get much outdoor air in the daytime he must have it at night, and the first thing to do was to move. After much hunting I found a nice six room cottage not far from a trolley line within 10-cent car fare distance from the city. It was only $20 a month, and it had quite a lot of land around it. We had always paid $30, so this woula make a saving of $10 a month six months of the year and enough to cover the 10 cents extra car fare in the cold weather when we had to buy our own coal for heating. We moved out there April 1 and Jim persuaded his emplover to give him a month’s leave of absence to recuperate in. He paid him for a week of it in lieu of his regular summer vacation. When I was a child I had lived in the country, and I knew the economy of a garden, so now that we had a little land I was bound to have one. Jim, who was feeling much better from his brief rest and his nights spent in the open, laughingly advised me not to bite cff more than I could chew,” but I paid nos attention to him and hired a man for $% to plow up and fertilize a good part of the yard for a garden. Over at the other side I reserved quite a space for a chicken run. Our garden seeds éid not cost much and Jim helped with the planting, so we soon had peas, beans, corn, beets, turnips, etc., in the ground. Tb years ago I was at my wit's 1 Civilization 5 tc Chickens and a Garden Bring Health and Prosperity. toes were cheap in those days and the other things would bring me in more money. But I bought two dozen tomato plants and some onion sets. Jim found that they were tearing * did not put in any potatoes, for pota- and bought enough secondhand lumber for $6 to build a small henhouse. He hired a carpenter for one day to help him frame it and put it together, and then he finished it by himesif and put up the wire for the runs. only able to aiford five hens and a rooster at first, for I wanted White Leg- horns, and they are rather expensive, but I knew their white eggs would sell the best, and I intended keeping quits a flock as soon as we were able to buy them. The end of Jim’s leave of absence found us well settled in our new home, with some of the vegetables beginning to show above ground and enough eggs from our few chickens to more than pay for the grain and table scraps they ate. Jim felt wonderfully better for the change and work out of doors, and though he had to get up earlier in the morning to get to business, he said he enjoyed the long ride in the open car back and forth, Every week or so I added to.my flock of chickens until by fall I had over a hundred. The garden did well also. We had quantities of fresh vegetables to eat ourselves, thereby cutting down our food bills enormously, and I managed to sell over $3 worth right in the town where we lived. But, of course, I had to work hard in the garden all summer, but be- ing outdoors like this did me good, and I never felt so well in my life. t for guaranteed a nice little sum for a rainy day. to the Appetite | E have been told for a long time W that the way to a man's heart lies through his stomach. Now comes an English scientist who says that all the culture of the ages was made possible because primeval man hankered for something better than acorns and herbs as a regular diet. According to this authority, the first of our race were a good deal more mon- key than human, living on roots and berries. After many generations the roots and berries began to pall upon our ancestors’ taste. Then it was that they tried animal flesh. Perhaps the test fol- lowed some calamity that brought about the death of many animals, or some hungry cave man decided to test the flesh of an animal killed in combat. Whatever the facts, anima! flesh from that time forward was at a premium. After another long lapse of time, reck- ons the writer, men learned to cook the animals that they had killed. This pos- sibly resulted from some forest fire in which the creatures of the woods were burned and fell into the hands of men living nearby. Roast meat tasted so much better than the raw variety, that it immediately be- came the fashion. The new-found dell- cacy probably suggested that it would be desirable to have a supply at hand. Animals there were in plenty, but it was not always easy to catch them. Some thinker of that early time caught a few sheep or other species of animals, and kept them penned for the day when bis mother-in-law or some other guest should arrive. The world was beginning to move. But even the best quality of meat, eat- en constantly, becomes tasteless. So our ancestors looked about for some- thing to vary their diet. They did not want to go back to the roots and herbs, but they did want a substitute and wanted it badly. From that desire grew the first faint attempts at agriculture. It also resuited in the taming of certain birds, which later developed into chick- ens, ducks, and-so on. With agriculture came community life. Families began to live in little settie- ments, and men herded their sheep and Not Woman’s Friend. 89 geld is a great thing.” “It's no friend to woman.” “Why not?’ “Bee what it does to her complexion, and, besides, they do say ite chemical et- in a comparatively short time.” tended their crops instead of fighting. They had become much less wild and no longer attempted to slay one another on sight. Out of the family developed fle tribe, and out of the tribe the nation.

HE Browns trimmed the Yankees yesterday in New York before u crowd of 21,000. The Browns have never lost a game at the Polo Grounds on Sunday. The Browns’ victory may be attri- buted in a measure to the fact that Mr. Pipp discontinued for the nonce] his daily habit of making a home run in the first inning with Hendryx on third and Maisel on first. Whether Mr. Pipp has n ous scruples against mak home runs on Sunday or that sro avorite combination of Hendryx on third and Maisel on first failed to present it- self we don’t know: but the fact re- mains that Mr. Pipp — no hom runs on yester Sabbath. It may be that Mr. Sothoron didn't approve of r. Pipp's system of slamming the sphere in the first in- ning and took measures to frustrate him in his fell design. We are in- clined to favor this solution of the mystery and tender our thanks to the Sothoron gentleman. It’s a Habit. While the Browns were keeping in- tact their record of never having lost a ame in New York on Sunday, the Cards continued their record of al- ways ey into third place when June 17, 1917, falls on a Sunday. * . Mr. Ames it was who first discov- ered the opening leading to third place and straightway proceeded to ooze himself into it followed by his cheering team mates. It was a dis- tinct triumph for the old applied science in baseball as intro- duced by Christopher Columbus and worked out to a state of perfection by Cy Young. 7 „ © There were only two policemen on the ground when the trouble started at Fenway Park in Boston on Satur- day.

Randolph and James H. Grover. Randolph is a son-in-law of Donaldeon, and his wife, Elizabeth A. Randolph, is named as a defendant n the suit. The other defendants are Mrs. Annie H. Hodgman of 5379 Waterman avenue, another daughter of Donaldson, and her two daughters, Elizabeth and Eunice Hodgman. Donaldson's will made Randolph and Grover joint trustees of the trust funds created in the will for the heirs. In their suit the trustees seek to have this joint trusteeship dissolved. so that Ran- dolph shall become sole trustee of the trust fund created for his wife, and Gro- ver shall become sole trustee of the fund for Mrs. Hodgman and her chil- dren. They propose to continue as joint trustees of the real estate, which, un- der the will, is to be sold within seven years. The trustees say their other business suffers interference through the re- quirement that both shall approve all transactions in connection with the joint trusteeships. Net Seo en — 5 gen. CHANG HSUN PRACTICALLY DICTATOR OF CHINESE AFFAIRS PEKIN, June 18.—Gen. Chang Hsun now is dictator, President Li Yuan Hung being little more than a figurehead. The insurgents are calling a convention at Tien Tsin to form a provisional Govern- ment headed by the dictator, who is expected to act as President and Pre- mier. Gen. Chang Hsun’s motives are ob- scure, but it is believed he is attempt- ing to obtain from the former leaders of the Manchura dynasty an agreement for restoration of the empire. He has urged the President to form a Cabinet. suggesting that a provisional council similar to that in Russia be established and that a declaration of war against Germany be then made.

You say you cannot ride a horse, and have never fired a gun nor seen a drill, but that you can swim all day, and go 100 yards or more under water if needful. Do you know any other man who can do the same“ “Olaf Svenson, who fishes with me, can swim as well. He is across the street now, selling some fish we brought “Would he like to enter the service, too? “I think so. Olaf always said he'd join it I did.“ “Why haven't you joined before?“ The young fisherman hesitated, then looked squarely into the Colonel's face. “Because I haven't wanted to, slr.“ he answered. “I didn’t see the use. It— isn't my own country. And I didn't have any idea of joining today until we I got right in front of your quarters.” “You and Olaf?’ “N-o, sir. Olaf’s sister. Olaf don't know of my being here, yet. Olga came up with us when we brought the fish.“ “H’m! Well, you and Olaf report to me at dark for instructions. And, oh yes, what is your name?” “Gerdar Warck, sir.” On the corner stood a girl, appar- ently engaged in diligently examining the contents of a window. Gerdar went straight to her. “Well, I have enlisted, Olga,” he announced briefly, “and enlisted Olaf, too. It wasn’t that I was afraid, as I told you, but I didn’t see the use.” The girl flashed him a startled look at the first words. Now she made a visible effort at self-control, biting her lip, with the color coming slowly to her face. “Tt isn't so much to enlist,” she said sharply. “The courage tells when it comes to fighting. You'll baék out yet, Gerdar Warck. I've never forgot how Lars slapped yourtfdce, and you turned and hurried off into the woods.” “Lars was smaller than me, Olga, and he was an old man and drunk. It—it wasn't easy for me to go into the woods that day. I had to do it or—or done something I'd be sorry for afterwards.” “You ran off, and there were a hun- Gred people looking, and they hobted,“ the girl sald mercilessly. Now you say month or two of drilling round the camp. When orders come for you 2 be sent to the front there’ll be plenty of time to run off again.” The words were bitter, but there was something behind them which caused Gerdar to look at her quickly, only, how- «vor, to meet flashing eyes and curling “From the way the Colonel spoke I think there'll be some front work to- Only it —it isn't any use for you and me to talk, Olga. We never get anywhere.” The Colonel was writing when Gerdar and Olaf were ushered into his presence by an orderly. Presently he turned from his desk. “It will be a bad night,“ he sald. Do you think you can reach Hell's Point through the storm and besieging ves- sels?” They started. Hell's Point was over a mile down stream, and surrounded by such a network of snags and rocks and barbed wire that 't was a poor chance Colonel watched them keenly. “There are also, without doubt, ex- plosives placed in the river by the ene- my. Are you two ready to take any chance?" “If you will let us,“ they answered. “Verywell. Here are two dispatches. exactly alike. If one of you fails, the other may suce, ed. You will go to the papers to a cripple you will find there. If you succeed, show a light from the elitf.

This was cut by lightning flashes, show- ing glimpses of the black hulls of the silent watchdogs investing the town. The current was in their favor, but the wind blew against them.

In spite of its dangers he had hoped the young fishermen might succeed—had al- most brought himself to believe that they would. But as the hours went by he ceased t glance toward Hell's Point. The thing had failed, and the brave young men were at the bottom of the river. Then suddenly, as he passed the win- dow, he uttered an exclamation of sur- prise. There was a light on the cliff above Hell's Point, a flashlight whirled in odd curves—the signal. Even as ‘it moved, a brother officer entered the room with beaming face. The two grasped hands. The Sandman Story for Tonight eS ̃ Meanwhile Gerdar—alone—was being given some hasty attention by a tall man, who had forgotten his crippled con- dition as he moved hurriedly about the cabin. Gerdar was covered with bruises and cuts, and blood flowed freely from a dozen or more wounds. Eventually he crawled out, with little injury save the scars. A year later, Olga, in whose eyes the one-time scorn had long since disap- reared, took upon herself the care of his name during one of his brief leave of absences from the front. He was in the uniform of an officer now, and had more scars—though she declared they were not scars, but decorations. 6 eee SE eee ( = -_- —_ — 6 — King and Queen who had a lit- tle daughter brought to them by the stork one night. They were so delighted with the baby girl that the next day the King gave a feast to all his subjects and told his servants that no one should be turned eway, no matter how poorly he was ressed. While the feast was going on a knock 7 ͤnnNn½¾ —%Dÿ e ẽwãů?e.̃ —᷑ i ß ⁰ ! eee ae P. —k W ee ee NCE upon a time there lived a; the servant when he opened the gate, and, seeing the terrible creature looking at him with th cold gray eyes, he quick- ly closed the gate and locked it. A loud shriek came from outside the gates of the castle, and the fright- ened servant shook with fear. But the gate of the castle was strong and the gray witch did not get in, but when the shrieking and pounding ceased a cry from the Queen was heard through the castle halis. My baby, my beautiful little Princess, has stolen!” she cried, wringing her hands in great grief. All the servants hunted through the dastle and the grounds, but nowhere could the Princess baby be found. The King offered half his kingdom to enyone who would find her, but years went by and no one heard of the Prin- cess. The old servant at the gate, was the only one who had any idea what had become of the Princess, He told the King of the terrible gray witch who came to the gate the night of the feast whom he had refused to edmit, but how she could have carried off the Princess was a mystery; st!!! the old servant felt it was she who had done the dreadful deed. Years went by and again the stork came to the castle, and this time he left a baby boy, and the King and Queen rejoiced that a little Prince was sent to them. The King gave another feast, but this time the little Prince was guarded by many soldiers and nothing happened tc him. One day when the Prince had grown to be quite a big boy he was playing in the gardens of the castle and a beautiful butterfly alighted on a bush near him. The little Prince put out his hand to touch it, but it flew away toward the forest. The attendants were so busy talking they did not notice that the little Prince ran after the outterfly and was soon out of sight. When the little Prince reached the woods the buttérfly suddenly changed, into a beautiful lady with long, flow- ing hair of sunny gold. Her eves were soft and blue as the Southern skies, and her face like a beautiful pink rose, so soft was her skin and so beautifully colored. She put out her hand to the little Prince and said in a soft, low voice: “Come with me and we will find your mister. Will you be afraid?” “Oh, no,” answered the little. Princo. “IT am not afraid of anything. I am a Prince, and some day I shall be King. and a King shguid not be afraid, my father told The beautiful lady smiled so set that the little Prince drew close to her side, and her flowing skirts wrapped their soft, warm folds about him and lifted him from the ground. | The beautiful lady and the little Prince xveemed to be railing along through the air, and the Prince put out his hand ag they sailed along ans touched the soft, fleecy clouds as they went past. But suddenly the little Prince felt a shiver pass over him, and he cuddled close to the beautiful lady. “Fear not, little Frince: the cold shall not harm vou.“ she said, ans closer about the little Prince she drew her soft, warm skirts. Suddenly the little Prince saw a tall. gray figure with streaming hair and long, lean arms stretched out in a threatening way flying toward them. “Oh, oh!“ eried the little Prince, »hugging closer to the beautiful warm lady. “Fear not, little Prince,“ she said, “the cold gray witch shall. not harm vou.“ Closer and closer came the Fray witch, and as she came she shrieked and howled, sending gut a cold blast from her dreadful month which made the little Prince shiver. But the beau- tiful lady drew him closer to ker, and soon he felt warm and safe. Tomor- row I will tell vou the rest of the story of the Gray Witch. (Continued tomorrow.)
