Brussels Unorganized. Ghent, Nov. 15. There is no organ ized authority yet in Brussels, but with comparative calm and dignity the Bel gian capital awaits the coming of the armies of liberation. On Sunday three delegates from the "republic of Hamburg" arrived at Brussels. Standing on a balcony the military commander of the city ad dressed a crowd of three thousand sol diers and civilians. "Three million Germans have been killed during the war," he said. "That is sufficient. Let us have peace." General von Falkenhausen. the Ger man governor general of Belgium, re ceived the delegates asjd in the mean time French and Belgian Socialists ad dressed the crowd. Then a sailor nim bly climbed up to the balcony and nailed a red tablecloth to the railing amid cheers. After an interview of an hour with j the delegates General von Falken-1 hausfn reappeared and announced that he had resigned and had accepted the delegates' terms. They were: First, immediate peace; second, that telegrams be sent to the front in structing the soldiers to return to Ger many; third, that no orders be given without the assent of "the soldiers' committee; fourth, that all units, from division to company shall elect rep resentatives to the soldiers' committee. The governor general asked that the Germans depart peaceably and respect life arid property. German officers then of their own volition began to strip the insignia from their uniforms. Some of them, however, were sullen and depressed. Hindenburg" With Them. A letter from Field Marshal von Hindenburg who was at Bingen-on-the Rhine, was read to the crowd.. It said: "I am heartily In sympathy with the regenerative movement. Soldiers must Ciey the orders of the supreme sol diers committee. Let us have peace."

TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY EVENING, FOR PEACE MEET Versailles Almost Snre To Be the Place. In .Same Hall Where German Empire Proclaimed. ALLIED COUNCIL MEETS Nothing Done With Appeal of Huns for Haste. Question' of Government In Germany Slain One "ow. Washington, Nov. 1 5. American delegates .to the great peace confer ence are understood to have been se lected by President Wilson, altho there probably will be no announcement un til the place and date of meeting has been decided upon formally by the inter-allied council which reassembled today in France. Discussion in well informed circles today of the prob able personnel .of the delegation cen tered upon four men. They are: Robert Lansing, secretary of state, to head the mission; Col. E. M. House, now In France attending the inter allied council as the personal repre senative of the' president; Elihu Root and Louis D. Brandeis, associate jus tice or the supreme court. The belief is growing here that Pres ident Wilson himself wiil attend the opening sessions of the congress, tho not to sit as a delegate around the peace table. (By the Associated Press) Paris. Nov. 15. Versailles, altho not formally chosen as the meeting place of the peace negotiations, is re garded as almost certain to be the place selected for the peace confer ence when the inter-allied council re assembles today. The real work of the negotiations .will be carried on in Paris where it is probable that dele gations from all the countries will re side temporarily, the members going out to Versailles now and then for plenary sessions of the conference. There also is little doubt that the su preme act of signing the peace agree ment will take place at Versailles in the same historical hall where the German, empire was proclaimed in 1871. Versailles, or rather th! palace there, has plnyed an Important part in the histories of France, tierin.iny, rfrent Britain and the I'nlteil States. In 1783 the armistice pre liminary to the treaty of neare between Great Britain nnd the United Stntes was signed at Versailles. Six years later the palnre was the scene of Important events in ipe rnncn reToiiiuon. x lie (ierman army besieging Paris had Its headquarters in the town -in 1K70-T1. and there the negotiations between France and iermany were discussed. After the peace Versailles was the sent of the French national as sembly, and for a few years thereafter was the official capital of France. i The town of Versptlles, southeast -of Tarls, is not attractive In Itself, but the presence there of the palace built bv Louis XIV, and Its proximity to the capital at tract many visitors. The palace at Ver sailles was begun in lftfil. nnd the gardens which with the fountains nnd waterworks, are one of the glories of the place, were planned by Le Notre. All estimates of the cost of the buildings and gardens are vague, but Borne experts estimate that more thnn tlliO.0WI.u00 were spent by Louis XIV, who destroyed t.he accounts. In the French revolution Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette were forcibly removed to Paris, after which the fnrniture wns destroyed. Napoleon and the kings riming the restora tion barely kept the p'ace la repair, but Louis Philippe restored tire palace and made it a museum of v-orks of art illnstra tive of the history of France, at a cost of nearly $5,000,000. Preliminaries Made. Washington, Nov. 15. Preliminar ies for the great peace conference are now well under way. It was indi cated today that the conclave might be held before, or shortly after the first of the year. Next week this govern ment will send representatives to aid Col. E. M.

S. Congress Expects On When It Meets in March. Capper of Kansas May Be One of the Leaden. 3 Washington, Nov. 15. Congress Is anticipating a little revolution all of its own when it convenes to organize March 4 next. First rumblings of progressives' in tention to play an important part in the organization and naming of com mittees by Republicans are now beting heard in the capital cloak rooms. There is a strong projrressive faction in thd sanate, including Borah, Ken yon, Norris. Lafollette and Grona (who generally votes with Lafollette), Johnson of California and McNary of Oregon. Capper of Kansas is expect ed to line up with this group. This group privately admits it is preparing to demand recognition and ample representation on those com mittees which will handle reconstruc tion legislation. Many of its person nel are strong government ownership advocates as opposed to the Lodge, Penrose, Brandegee majority group. While the house situation is more stable, the senate progressives believe that-if their stand is made forceful enough the agitation for recognition will spread to progressives of the house. Already there are signs in the lower branch of a coming upheaval.

Support for th United War Work campaign to uphold America's sons abroad in the important tasks of peace ahead of them, was asked today by Secretary Baker. "1 think all Americans now recog nize the fine record of our army," said the war secretary, "but we must not fail also to appraise .he work it has yet to do. Following the exhilaration of combat comes the tedium of peace, but the tasks of peace are infinitely important and we must uphold our sons as they perform them. This drive for the United War Work fund Is a direct challenge a measure of our appreciation. It is our way to reach arms of helpfulness to every distant place where the flag is unfolded for the healing of humanity." Crowder Joins In Appeal. Provost Marshal General Crowder issued a statement emphasizing the fact money for the welfare workers will be more needed now than during the war. "There la some fear on the part of the directors of the United War Work campaign," he said, "thsjt the Ameri- f-can people may fail to give the proper support to the great drive now going on to raise the United War Work fund because of the feeling -that the war is qver. our boys will remain in tne serv- ice for many weary months.

Many of the men have gone safely over the stern pe riod of active warfare but they may now succumb to the relaxations in cident to cessation of active hostilities. Now the trial of their value to the American soldier. If .they can make their camps, their huts, their shows, their motion pictures, their athletic sports so attractive that the boys will seek the clean amuKement offered by them, they will have met the supreme test of efficiency. They cannot do this unless the American people promptly and generously replenish their war chests." Prospects Are Brighter. New York, Nov. 15.

Applications which were filed by the various distributing companies wer? heard by Judge Booth at Bt. Paul and the order, following the hearing, bears the date of November t 13. Country consumers served direct MfW and collect from each con- sllm(1. minimum bHl of nftv cents. Portv c-n, o( tna I)rooeed, of tht I sale of the gas will go to the receiver und sixt cent t the diatributing ii authorized by special order, no com pany may sell gas for power purposes. brick plants, smelters or oil refineries. The new rates are to take effect from and after the November meter read ings, except at Kansas City. The order, so far as it authorizes an increase of rates and a new per centage of division, is not mandatory upon the distributing companies, but is optional with each company. If the option is exercised by any company such action by it will be- understood to be subject to the following condi- ftions: If it shall be finally determined ju dicially that consumers on the system of any distributing company are en-, titled to a refund on the whole or any part of the this increase of rates, such refund shall be borne by the respec tive distributing company and by the receiver in the same proportion as they share, respectively in the present Increase of rates; and if the whole present .Increase is absorbed by the distributing company, such company shall bear the whole of any such re fund. Rates Only Temporary.' Judge Booth holds that the rates are established temporarily and are not fully compensatory either to the re ceiver or the distributing companies if due consideration were given to a fair value of their respective plants. It is explained that at the present time it has not been feasible for the court to make an exhaustive examination of these values. Nevertheless, it Is pointed out, It appears certain that the reasonable compensatory rate will be much j higher. Judge Booth states that the change in the percentage of division has been made so as to favor the dis tributing companies at this time pri marily because of a change in the status of the leakage problem. Hith erto an abnormally large leakage In the distributing systems has been borne by the receiver, it is said, and the court announces that it is heartily n favrir nf thA nrnnnMrl mnv nf th government in investigating the waste of gas and compel the parties respon sible to take any necessary steps to confine the waste within reasonable limits. It is pointed out that the Increased rates should materially help the dis tributing companies to meet the new expense of making repairs to eliminate this leakage and while it might seem that the public is being made to pay for this, it is pointed out that in the past the public has been receiving gav at a rate too low to give the companies a reasonable return and permit them to make necessary repairs. The rates established by the new order, the court holds, are still below the ln- i trinsic worth of iras as comnn.red with other fuel. Rales In ettlos.

This condition still prevails. At this writing we have bark or ders for eighteen thousand 1 1 8,000 gross and our orders each day .are double our daily output. The epidemic however, is decreasing in most sec tions, the demand is slackening and we are workinp night and day to catch up. In the meantime, we ask the trade to be patient with us.

This is now gone we actually shipped during the month of October over three million jars of VapoKub. We are speeding up our factory as much as possible and the problem now is to distribute the fac tory's output as quickly as possible. We have, therefore, for the time be ing, abandoned freight shipments ard are shipping either by Parcel Post or express trying to give eachsjobber at least a little stock. IMMEDI TE SHIPMENTS TO DUL'CGISTS IV INFI.CEXZA DIST1UCTS Preference is being given to those sections stricken by influenza. In order to reach these -sections as quickly as can be. we are. during this emer gency, making shipments by Parcel Post, direct, to the retail trade, of not more than three (3) dozen 30c size in any one shipment. We prefer that the Jobbers order these shipments for their trade, but to save time we will, if need is urgent, ship direct on receipt of check or money order. Nat urally, no new accounts can be opened during this rush. SAMPLES AMI INFLUENZA BOOK LETS FREE ON REQUEST.

HOW TO USE VAPORUB IN TREAT ING SPANISH INFLUENZA. In .every case call a physician VapuKub .should be used only In connection wftb the physician's Inter nal treatment. Apply hot. wet cloths over th throat, chest and back between the shoulder blades to open the pores. Dry lightly and rub VapoRub well in until the skin is red spread on thickly and cover with hot flannel cloths. Leave the bedcovering loose around the neck, as the body heat releases tlve ingred ients in the form of vapors. These vapors, inhaled with each breath, stim-4 ulate the lining of the air passages to throw off the influenza germs. In case of head or chest cold, which of ten accompanies influneza, the vapors tend to keep the air passages open, loosen the phlegm and make- 'the breathing easier. In addition, Vapo Kub is al sorbed thru and stimulates the skin, attracting the blood to the surface, and thus aids in relieving the congestion within. HOW TO USE VICK'S VAPORUB AS A PREVENTIVE. Tt Is questionable if there la anything which will prevent Spanish Influenza. -except avoiding those persons who are spreading the disease by coughing, sneezing and spitting, and by keeping up the bodily resistance by plenty ot Rood food and exercise in the open air. 1 The Public Health Service recom-' mends that the nasal passages be coated with a weak solution of Men thol in liquid petroleum as a protec tive. For this- purpose VapoRub is excellent. Just put a small portion up each nostril from time to time during the day and snuff well back Into the head. KEEP FREE FROM COLHS EX IN. V HALING VAPORUB. Colds irritate the lining of the air passages and thus render them a much better breeding place for the germs. At the first signs of a cold use Vapo Rub at once. Melt a little in a spoon and inhale the vapors arising, or Vapo Rub can be used in a regular benzoin steam kettle, such as most druggists carry in stock. If this is not avail able, a very good substitute o use is an ordinary teakettle. Fill half-full of boiling water put In half a tea spoon of VapoKub from time to time keep the kettle just slowly boiling and inhale the steam arising. GREENSBORO, N.

King Albert Is Everywhere Shown Joy. London. Nov. 15 (British Admir alty Wireless). The war correspond ent of the Morning Tost says the joy of liberated Belgium is finding ex pression in the welcome of King Al bert and the queen as they pass town to town. On November 13, they en tered Ghent at the head of troops which fought the kaiser for four years and the pageant which marked their progress thru crowded streets was one that will long be remembered in 1 lan- d6"The old town, bright with flags and bunting, never looked more beautiful than in the brilliant sunshine, says the correspondent. "Infantry of the line in their long gray cnats lined the royal route to the I'lace D Armes, where civ ic officials and the bishop waited for their monarch. He came riding slow ly between glittering bayonets, the queen in white at one side, the crown prince In his simple uniform at the other. Their horses were followed by staffs of the Belgian army and offi cers of allied troops which have taken part in the advance thru Belgium, un der command of King Albert. "A French general was close to the king, and a British brigadier was not far away. At one end of the Place D'Armes their majesties reined their horses to review the escorting troops three regiments of the line and one of cavalry with their guns swinging thru the square to the Mudicof, their trumpets and bands playing as they went. "Only those who witnessed the agony of Ghent four years aKO could fully comprehend the Joy of her peo ple today. I left the town on that last day of freedom when the German van guard was approaching the Antwerp gates and the inhabitants awaited their fate in utter despair. "The happiness I saw today on ev ery hand made it difficult to realize that years of suffering had intervened. The people were well nigh wild with Joy this morning when the flags of their country passed In triumph thru Ghent." KEEPS. A.T. C. GOING 0lkges However. Will Send No More Men to Officer Camps.

K. v. Up to July SI approximately 9, BOO uniforms had been furnished to Y. M. C. A. workers in the United States and 7,222 uniforms to the S.C11 secre taries sent overseas. "Many of these workers are bearing; all of their own expenses, but the majority receive an expense allowance from the T. M. C. A., which covers their bare necessi ties, in the case of unmarried work ers, and gives to married workers ap proximately the' allowance of a lieu tenant In the army. This gives some idea of the scope and' magnitude of the work undertaken by the Y. M. C. A. for the soldiers. Retreating German soldiers are re ported to be pillaging and destroying as they proceed on their homeward journey. This might have been rea sonably expected. It is the way of the Hi')!. He is built trat way and his entire upbringing has been'along this line. Tho regular army clique has landed on Gen. Charles I. Martin of Kansas and he has been demoted to the rank of colonel. The West Pointers are re lentless in their fight on all officers who have not been graduated from the military academy. They held Fred Funston down for years and have been able to keep Gen. Leonard Wood from going to the front in the face of a strong protest from the press and the public. President Wilson has overruled Postmaster General Burleson again 'by permitting Jane Addams to resume the publication of her paper, which was suppressed by Burleson as dis loyal. Without attempting to pass on the justice or injustice of Burleson's order, says the Fort Wayne News, knowing nothing of the nature of Miss Addams's offense, it may be honestly said that both her case and that of the Nation, which the president restored after suppression by Burleson, attest very clearly lhat there is something radically wrong in Washington. If Burleson was tyrannical and unjust In his suppression of these papers, his resignation should be asked and in sisted upon by the president. It Is unspeakable that in a free country a nfan lacking In poise and broad vision should be vested with the power to strike so terribly and malignly at those who Incur his displeasure. Reports of the death of the late crown prince are so persistent that they call for an official denial from that person. By next spring the government will Tiave lifted the ban from Teaceful in dustry and it Is none too soon. to be gin preparations for resumption of the public improvements which were In terrupted by our entrance into the warr Remember, also.i there is all the more reason why you shjxild contrib utes ;to the united war work fund. Nothing is too food for the men in the military service, until the govern ment is thru with them and returns them to their homes. The dispatches state that public opinion In Paris is divided regarding what shall be the fate of the kaiser. Perhaps it may be found necessary to catch him before making any disposi tion of his person. The foreign trade, of the United States in the year which ends with next month seems likely to make an other "high record." A compilation by the National City bank jf New York estimating the trade of the full year, based upon the figures thus far available, 'puts the total Imports at approximately 13,100,000,000, and the total exports at approximately. $8,200, 009,0110, thus estimating the year's to- tal- trade at approximately $9,300, 000,000 against 19.185.000,000 in 117, the former high record year. The ex cess of exports over imports will ap proximate J 3, 000,000. 000 and the aggre gate excess of exports over imports for the four and one-half years of war, will exceed 111,004,000,000, or more than that of the forty years preceding the war. THE FIRST PEACE GUN. One thousand workmen were dis charged tsom government "employ at Fort Leavenworth this week. This is but the beginning of a long aeries of similar orders. Unless the federal gov ernment, the states, the counties and the municipalities shall quickly pre pare to meet the new conditions by providing work in other lines, many hardships may ensue. Private capital cannot be expected to take the initia tive in this matter while prices con tinue at their present level. The question of costs is mainly a question of wages, because the cost of materials of every kind consists main ly of wages. The most serious element in the situation, therefore, is the fact that there is little prospect for an early reduction of living costs. Food and clothing are not likely to decline very much in price in the year to come, for these are things which Eu rope will certainly want, and the sup ply cannot be meantime increased. Eventually these prices will fall, but not until new crops can be grown. It is always a difficult matter to re adjust wages downward, and few peo ple will regard it as desirable from the broad' standpoint of public policy to have wages reduced while the cost of living remains as high as at present. Suah action would have an injurious effect upon business even if accepted without controversy, because it would reduce the purchasing power of mil lions of consumers. If it be necessary to readjust the general level of values it is important that wages and prices move together, and it ought not to be a subject of heated controversy but of intelligent conference between em ployers and wage-earners and upon a lair basis. The difficulty which threatens is that there may not be a sufficient de mand for construction work at the high level of prices to keep the in dustries employed, altho an ample de mand is in waiting at something like normal prices. How can the situation be supported at least until the cost of such necessities as food and clothing have made The decline which may be expected of them? The answer is that pvernmental machinery must be set n motion for the purpose. In his appeal to his fellow country men before the election the president said that the election of a Republican majority In either house of congress would be interpreted as a repudiation of his leadership, and his fellow coun trymen sesm.to have taken'him at his word. NO TIME TO LOSE. It -appears generally to be agreed upon., that in order to maintain the prosperous condition in which the country finds itself It will be neces sary to provide employment not only for the soldiers soon to return but for those persons who have been engaged in war work, now about to come to a close. In carrying out this program the federal government and the mu nicipalities should take the lead. The railroads are the most practica ble agencies for creating an extensive program of construction work, and the railroads are now under government control. It would be Impossible for the companies under the present cir cumstances to undertake upon their own responsibility large expenditures for betterments the results; of which could not be realised for years to come, because of the unsettled state of their relations with the government, but It might be possible fsr the com panies and the government to agree upon a more or less elastic program of development. 4 The municipalities are also In posi tion to do much. Their expenditures for improvements have been curtailed and might be expanded somewhat above the average rate. The states and counties might develop an extcn siv policy ot highway construction. Drainage and irrigation furnish other fields of operation. If a general policy of this kind were developed and the co-oper.tloit of communities the country cver, were asked, sufficient work probably could be brought lntoalght to stabiliz the situation, and once assurance was giv en that the situation would be sup ported, private enterprise wo!,.l be encouraged to go ahead on Its own ae-N count. The suggestion pf course does not contemplate useless expenditures. So far as the. railways are concerned it would' simply be that the Improve.! menu which have been postponed; lh the past for want of funds should not be longer delayed on account of the unsettled relations with govern ment. A comprehensive program of railroad reorganization and develop ment Is undoubtedly required. As to the municipalities and t-the govern mental agencies tt means that they act promptly andin unison in doing;' work: which their growth and prospects make It desirable to do at no distant day. -y- These organizations can afford to supply leadership because they repre sent the public, and any cost' vhich may result from not' gettTng-', their work done after wages -and pYlcies have fallen will be fully made good to them by the. general prosperity of their communities. TOPEKA ETATB JOURNAL. INFORMATION BUREAU FREDERIC J. HASKIN. Directory Washington, D. C. I VX EDUCATED AMERICA. N Washington. D. C, Nov. 12. Sol diers with teacning experience as signed to rmal schools under govern ment pay is suggested by an official of the bureau of education as a meas ure which may be necessary to pre vent an almost complete collapse of education in; a large part of rural America. It should make every American citi zen thoughtful to realize that his country, which now seeks to stand be fore the world as the leading cham rtion and examnle of democracy, with all that democracy implies in. the way of universal education ana enugmen ment, is not offering a. decent educa tion to much more than half of the children born within its limits. Because a teacher in rural America is often paid less than a good un skilled laborer, and because the American people as represented in their national government are not suf ficiently interested to do anything.
about it. hundreds of rural schools are I r-lnnfrt this fall for lack of teachers. A nation-wide recruiting campaign for school teacners is aDoui to oe utum...-. ed. and if this appeal fails, it is pos. sible that the government may have to use its power under the draft law to keep the country schools open. In spite of the appeals for assistance that have already been made, the Situ ation is steadily growing more serious. Reports from 1,150 counties in forty seven states show that the schools are fifty thousand teachers short. They also show that the teaching profession has been drained of its most efficient individuals by the greater opportuni ties offered by the war, and that most of its personnel this year is made up of beginners. In some counties the superintendents report that 85 per cent of their teachers this year are without previous teaching experience. This shortage, of course, reaches its most acute stage in the rural districts. It is estimated that at least five hun dred thousand rural school children are without teachers at the present time. In many sections of the coun try the district school houses have not been opened at all, and the cnuaren f are working on the farms. Labor Is i so scarce that a large family has be come an economic asset. It can either be kept at home to perform the farm work in the absence of hired hands, or it can be hired out to neighboring farms at the rate of $2.50 per day per child. As long as there are ap ples to be picked, fall vegetables to be harvested and stored, and extra de mands upon the farm dairy, the farm er is not greatly agitated by the teacher scarcity. Indeed, the rural districts never permit themselves to become greatly agitated over the mere matter of edu cation. In many communities the school house is a mora dilapidated structure than, any barn to be found among the surrounding farms. Chil dren of .all ages and in various stages of-progress are seated in one room, which is usually heated by a small wood stove, aided by tightly sealed doors and windows. The schoolmarm is usually of the predestined spinster type, and has been chosen by the local board of education, consisting of three or four farmers, chiefly because she has the orle necessary qualification the ability to live on an incredibly small salary. According to student ot this matter of rural education, it is impossible to convince the average rural board of trustees that a cheap teacher is not just as capable as an expensive one. A teacher is a teacher, and with that they dismiss the prob lem. Uefore the war, an Investigation showed that less than one-third of the rural teachers in this country had any professional training. The superin tendent of schools for the, state of Texas asserts that at least SO per cent of the rural school teachers of that state have only a seventh grade edu cation and no professional training. In the stafe of West Virginia, according to its state superintendent of schools, 80 per cent of the rural teachers have only an eighth grade education and no professional training- When a well-trained teacher is secured by a rural community, she usually remains only for a year In order to get the experience, and then leaves for more remunerative fields of work. Whlla all l,n. before, educational authorities feel j "ni'rmly good health and are enjoy that it has not attracted the attention ,n their vacation to the utmost. that it should. People have failed to realize the national significance of this condition. For years the Ameri can republic, thru the lips of its great men, has declared that education was its salvation. "If the teachers did not do their work well this republic would not outlast the span of a generation," we have been told by Colonel Roose velt. And other politicians, both Re publican and Democratic, have shown equally terrifying possibilities thru tl"' lack ot- education. But these j Sd l penetrate the In the cities an eighth-grade educa- Hon, while unfortunately obtained by itss tnan one-nair or our urban school population, is still considered the ab solute minimum on which a person can hopp to succeed In the world, but n tho country thousands of Ameri cans are growing up with much less preparation than this In a state of un mitigated self-satisfaction. The aver ssre rural school term, for example. Is nearly fifty days shorter than the average urban school term. In many instances it becomes even shorter by the illness of the teacher or the chil dren: by the lack of fuel Or funds, or thru any other "small emergency which may arise. In one district last winter the school closed for an entire month because labor was scarce, and none of the farmers had the time to haul a load of wood to the school- house. Finally, it was the wife of one of the farmers, accompanied by her j two sons, aged fourteen and fifteen, who chopped the necessary fuel and hauled it to the scboolhouse In one of S their farm wagons. And this wife re ceived a rebuke from her husband for taking .one of his wagons for this purpose. "City-parents are now very much exercised over the fact that their children have lost a month's schooling by reason -of the Influenza epidemic," declared an official of the United States Bureau of Education the other day in discussing educational facilities of the rural districts. "People are al ready submitting suggestions for mak ing up this time. Cannot the schools be kept open on Saturdays, or during the-, summer; or cannot certain sub jects be given less time In favor of others? It is considered quite a prob lem. But 4n the country much -more time Is lost every year not on account, of some inevitable catastrophe such as an epidemic, but simply thru Indiffer ence." In considering the different atti tudes of urban and rural communities toward education, however, it must be remembered that educational facilities are supplied more easily w'here there axe many people to pay the bills. The earning capacity of the farmer is small compared "to the earning ca pacity of many trades and professions in the cities, and in some districts there are only ten or fifteen farmers to provide for a school while in the cities the schools are maintained from taxes paid by thousands. Further more, many educators doubt its the textbook education provided in our schools is the sort required by farm ing communities. They are nut dis posed to blame the farmer or belit tling it It is the national government which should take a hand and see that small rural Americana are properly edu cated, for it is the nation which will suffer from their Ignorance. England has recognized this fact; the UnitedJ States must recognize it. There is at present a bill in con gress providing one hundred million dollars to aid education In its various branches, and one of the most impor tant of these branches is rural educa tion, 'hen this bill ts passed the gov ernment will co-operate with the states n supplying the funds necessary to obtain the best teachers, th best text books and the best system of educa- ouuna miu lira i.t Djavsm t ev American child. In the meantime, the government i can only issue a call for volunteers. It teachina- next to nurs ing on the list of valuable war work, and ask that both the men and the women ot the nation come forward and offer their services to relieve the situation. The vacancies in the city schools are being filled slowly but surely but little headway is being made with those in the rural schools. Until the necessary legislation can be passed to raise the salaries of teachers to something like an equality with those paid in other professions requir ing the same amount of intelligence and training, the nation is dependent upon the patrlotlsim of those womenJ who have helped to put all the rest of the war work thru. If you have both a college educa tion and a spirit of patriotism, come to the rescue and take a rural school this year. ON THE SPUR OF THE MOMENT BY ROY K.

BY GERALD ST. ET1ENXK. 'Go! Not another word. 1 will not listen to you. Stop!" Flora stood on the top step and, as she comrrtnaea in sharp, decisive tones, she pointed a finger toward the pathway. Mathew Burgess edged first on one foot and then on the other. He had never-had such a scathing lecture in his life as the one Flora had just de livered him. He longed to take her in his arms and kiss away the frown on her lips, but he did not dare, for there was something behind those eyes of hers that warned him such a move ment would only make matters worse. With a shrug of his shoulders that was intended for a dignified one he started in the direction her finger was point ing. Just as he reached the gate he looked back. Flora was still standing there, a dramatic figure reflected in Altho he was In a shadow and was not visible to her sight, yet she seemed to realize his tyes were upon her. Her chin went up in the air as she turned and went into the open door, stopping on the threshold long enough to call out: "Yon need not call again, Mr. Burgess. Hereafter I will not be at home to you." Poor Mathew was squelched: If it had been anyone else but Flora he would have had an impertinent answer ready, but his tongue seemed cleaved to the roof of his mouth. He did mur mur something about "these women" as he unfastened shis horse from the gate-post and climbed into the buggy. If Flora was going to let a little thing like his being too late to take her to the dance come between them, then it was time they broke off their engage ment. As he took one last look to ward her home, he noticed how dark the night had become all at once. The moon that had been doing its best all night had disappeared behind a dark cloud. A slight breeze fanned his cheeks and he heard the leaves of the trees rustle uneasily. From away in the distance a muf- fled go ot thunder reached his ears. There w&i going to be a storm. "Giddap!" One light touch on the reins and Mat's horse started out on a gallop. He was going to reach home before the storm came on if it could possibly be done. Flora wakened with a- start. She had hardly been asleep five minutes, it seemed. "Oh!" A1 flash of snake lightning caused her to cover her. head in the bed clothes, and she attempted to etuff a whole sheet in her ears to deaden the sound of the thunder that she knew would follow. "Oh! oh!" came in Quick succession from her lips. The tumult that was taking place almost deafened her, de spite the sheet. It sounded as if the whole country had been struck. Flash after flash of lightning was followed by crash after crash of thunder, made more terrible by a torrent of rain and wind. It seemed hours before a calm came, but in reality It was only a very few minutes. The stillness was almost as terrifying as the. storm. lora longeoyto cry out for help, but there was no one within hearing dis tance. Her father was the onlsTother person in the house, and his room was atthe rear. He was deaf and could sleep thru any kind of storm. Sud denly a sound broke, the stillness., Flora's trembling; stopped immediate ty.'Sher'ltsts.ad.v. The sound waarev pealed. Soma one was knocking the bis brass knocker on the front door. Who was it at that hour? Flora asked herself. A telegram from her mother was the answer that presented Itself. Flora Jumped from the bed ami slipped into slippers and a kimono. Her heart beat rapidly as she stood with her hand on the lock of the big oa4t door. She was terrifieoV, not of personal danger but at the thought of what news might be waiting on the outside of that door for her Tele grams in the night are always horri ble things. v No soner had she opened the door than she jumped back with a scream that rang thru the house. A big, burly body had flung Itself at her and her hands had come in contact with wet, sticky fur. Her head reeled and she was almost fainting when some- ining torn ner what-it was, "Bonnie.!" she gasped.. "Bonnie, where did you come from?'! An answering whine caused her to sink down with a cry of thankfulness. When she flashed on the lierhts there stood Bonnie, Mat's merle collie. It was quite some time before Flora could beconse composed cm ugh to pat the dog. He was shaking all over. Mat was with him, was her thought a& she threw open the door. But no Mat was there. It was almost dawn and the storm had cleared. The dog sank back at the sight of the wet land scape. Who could have knocked? One look at Bonnie answered the ques tion. He had reached up with his nose and lifted the knocker. He seemed, to be pleading for some thing. Mat had been hurt and the dog had come for help. She had read of such things in stories- With this thought came conviction. '.'Where Is he, old fellow, and how wag he hurt?" Flora asked, frantic ally. The dog wagged its tail as if it un derstood, and that convinced Flora the more. A tree had fallen on Mat on his way home, or he had heen struck by lightning. Mat in that storm! The thought was terrible. on, what could she do? Madlv she raced upotairs and dressed hurriedly. It was daylight by the time she was down again., Poor Mat had been pinned down by that tree aH night! Oh, what if he was dead Bonnie would lead her to him but Bonnie wouldn't. Nothing would coax that dog to leave the house. This was odd for every dog she had read of that had gone in search of help had always led the rescuer to the scene of the accident. perhaps but the sound of the tele Shone bell broke her thoughts and she urried to answer It. Some one had found Mat, was her first thought as she lifted the receiver. "Hello!" she managed, timidly. -"Hello." came excitedly from the other end of the line. "Have you seen anything of Bonnie?" Flora nearly dropped the receiver with joy. It was Mathew. "Yes; the old darling Is here," she cried. "Oh. Mat. I thought you were hurt or dead! Bonnie rapped at the door, and he's shaking as if something awful has happened." "I went away without him." Mat answered in a tone of relief, "and he's terrified of storm. It is characteristic of collies, you know." "Come right over and get him. I'm frightened of everything." The strain was beginning to tell on Flora and she burst into tears. "I will be right over," she heard Mat say as the receiver went up. Flora sank down on the rug beside Bonnie and wept softly. -Suddenly it dawned upon her that she had broken off her engagement with Mat and called him Mr. Burgess, to say nothing of ordering him from the house. She had been silly and disturbed over noth ing. "What will I do, Bonnie?" she asked in bewilderment. The old dog looked up into her face with his big, kind, expressive eyes. Flora thought, as If to say, "Why, he's the best master loathe world! Kiss him anjj make up, of course. What else would you do?" "That's just what I will do." she ex claimed eagerly as she put her arms around Bonnie's neck and hugged him for the KugeeRiion. (Copyright. 1018 by the MeClure Sttrt paper Syndicate.) DOROTHY DIX TALKS BY DOROTHY DIX World's Highest Paid Woman Writer. The Unforgivable Sin. 1. What is the one thing that a hus- band finds it hardest to forgive in his wife, and a wife finds it hardest to forgive in her- husband, and that hus bands and wives find it hardest to forgive Jn each other? You will say infidelity, cruelty, drunkenness. Not at all. The big, tragic sins carry with them a certain ;n;tu thnt t n &nm srav. romantic disnity that, in some way, partially atones for them, and that at least, leave us our self respect, while we endure them. We can makexcuses for the lover swept away by the tidal wave of a great passion. We have a thrill of sympathy for the wan who reverts to cave man tactics, we can -sun love the beautiful soul of the one whose feet occasionally stumble Into the gut ter. The things that we cannot forgive are just the little daily Irritations the sordid little meannesses and weak nesses that fill us with contempt, and make us despise the one who la guilty of them. They are the pebble in the' shoe of matrimony that make It un endurable to any save the saints and the martyrs. In discussing this subject recently a famous divorce lawyer said: "I have found out that husbands and wives will forgive each other the big sins, and that it is the little jars and frets that lead people into the divorce courts. For instance, the one thing that a woman never forgives a man is laziness. "She will overlook his philandering, and turn a blind eye on practically everv other fault, as long as he is a hustler who is always on the job, and j shows lhat he can take care of himself and look out for his own. But the minute a man develops a tendency to sit down and take life easily, and loaf and allow' other men to pass 4iim In the race, he commits the unpardon able sin so far as his wife is con cerned. "She can forgive him anything easier than lack of energy, and he might commit any crime under the sun and be less despicable in her sight than to be just plain no account. There isn t a woman living who hasn t got more respect for a successful burglar than she has for a man who is a model pf alt the virtues -who can't make a living. "Of course, you will say that there are millions of women who do stick to lazy husbands whom they have to support, but this is partly pride, part ly a sense of duty, and the sporting Instinct that compels us to make the best of a bail bargain, and mostly the appeal that Bu'ch a weakling makes to the eternal maternal instinct in woman. But., her love never svfrvives her dis covery that the man to whom she is married Is too indolent to do a man's part in the world. And when you think of what a contemptible figure a man is who Is so lazy that he lets a woman work and earn his bread and butter, for him you can't blame wom en for holding triflingness in men as the unforgivable sin. "And my experience has taught me that the thing that a husband finds it hardest to forgive in a wife is ex- travasance the kind of extravagance that keeps ft man's nose always against the grindstone, and makes him turn pale at the sight of a bHl collector. So long as a woman is a thrifty mana ger, and keeps her expenditures within her husband's income, a man will put up with almost any feminine faults In his wife, but if she is a spendthrift no matter what other good qualities she may have he begins to hate her and to realTse that he has made a fatal mistake in marriage.

IncJ DINNER STORIES The Earl of Dunmore said at a din ner in Washington: "There was a good deal of baseball played in London last summer, and the doughboys often took English girls to see the game. "I heard of a doughboy who said to a girl as they entered the ball grounds together: 'If there Is anything you want ex plained tell me. I guess a lot of things seem meaningless to you.' 'Everything seems meaningless, said the girl, 'and some things seem idiotic.' 'What seems Idiotic? asked the doughboy. 'Well,' said the girl, 'why do you call the seats the stands' "Nobody seems to object to prohi bition," said the visitor at Crimson Gulch. "Well." replied Broncho Bob, "Three Finger Bam Is right resentful. He's gettin' to feel lonesome an' neg lected.

Gen. 28:10-22. A Runaway's GHmpsa of Glory. Some persons need to he scared or smitten into' reformation. There is plenty of precedent and war-ant for the chastening of Germany In order to insure a vc hangs in her character. Jacob, son of Isaac, who had not a few points in common with the kaiser, had to be soundly frightened, and his ambitious schemes wrecked, before he ever found his better self. When he became a fugitive from the vengeance of his outraged brother, Esau, he had a new standpoint from which to view himself. A lonely wandsier, affrights ed at every shadow and every, sourd, with no servant to accompany him. and with no wealth in his hand, Ja.:ob was far removed from his former po sition as aseh-conspirator in the household of his rich father, Isaac. .4 1- Now there was no fond, shrewd and unscrupulous mother to incite or abet him. He was on his own strength; and that is often the beginning of great things in a young man's life. Jacob was on the run. with a guilty conscience for his only companion. He and his mother had presented to Isaac another reason for the High! the Importance of securing for Jacob a wife from the old family stock UP in Haran. Really, tho, it was fear of Ksau that quickened his footsteps. Jacob might be a better business man than his brother, and atla to outplay him in any game of guile but In a straightout fight he was afraid of the hairy hunter. So the successful schemer was fleeing from his own home, looking for a chance to begin life over again in safety. All his trick ery had been in vain. "T wish thMCA W-r m- wnnA fnl nl-M 'Tailed the Land of Ileglunlng Again. w nere an our misiQKes, apu an our neari aobea And all our poor selfish grief Could be dropped like a Shabby old coat, at the door, 1 And never put on again," i Where British Soldiers March.' An air of unreality surrounds Bible characters and places for many per sons; and it is continually worth while to remind ourselves that the route of Jacob's flight is the present route of the British forces in Palestine. Like him, they started from Beersheba, where they maintained headquarters, after defeating the Turks at Sues and on the Sinai peninsula. From Beer sheba, they, like him, marched' north, and are still going, until they reach Haran, or until General" Marshall's troops from Bagdad pass thru tt and unite with the forces from Beersheba, somewhere in the neighborhood of Aleppo. At a point-where the 'British lately routed the Turks, called Bethel, Jacob had an experience that has meant more to human life than mOst great battles. What some one man thinks is often a turning point in world history. In ner personal experiences are the real seeds of revolution. It is a great thing for the world when a man or a woman,' and. particularly a young man or a youns woman, gets a new conviction concerning the. spiritual verities. It Is not the places we have been, the -things we have seen and heard arrd done, that matter most, but tho resolutions we have formed, the thoughts that have come to dominate us. Jacob at Bethel was making a more momentous Journey than to Haran; he was on his way to a great Idea. For the firefr time, apparently, he was taking vital account of God. It is easiest to look up when we are down. Adversity has been the intro duction of many a person to the things worth while. When fear and disaster are at our heels, we instinctively cry out for help from some Power beyond ourselves. The motive may not have been the most creditable, but the ef fect of fugitive Jacob's experience was to set mm to tmnkmg about Jehovah, the God of his father and of his grand father. On that lonely, hasty journey, he brooded upon the vast promises to his family line, promises which dwarf ed into true proportions his mean and crafty devices for sel-enrichment. Tlie Dream and The Song. Night had fallen. The frightened jscod naa Kept going, fearful ever of hearing the shout of his avenging I -other behind him. He knew the physical hardihood and endurance of bsau the hunter, who might even now be tracking him as game. Not until darkness had come did he pause, near the village of Luz. His preparations for the night were of the simplest: a stone for a pillow, the earth for a couch, his cloak for a covering. It was not hardship for him to sleep so; he had often done it, as the people of the land do it to this very day. A stone is a hard pillow only to the person used to feathers. x Ruling "thoughts usually shape dreams. And Jacob dreamed of God and Heaven and safety and a sure Inheritance. In his dream It seem ed as If a ladder reached from the very spot where he slept to Heaven itself, and- messengers ascended and descended. "And, behold, Jehovah stood above it, and said, I am Jehovah, the God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it and to-thy seed; and thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and th t shalt spread abroad to the west and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all tbe families ot the earth be blessed. And behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee whithersoever thou goeat, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not 1- thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of." On this experience of Jaroh In based Sarah F. Adam's famous hymn: "Tho like the wanderer. The snn gone down, Iiartness be over me, My rest a sfflne; Yet in my d renins I'd be Nsarer niy find, to Thee, Nearer to Thee. There let the way appear, Krepe unto heaven: .'All that Thou srod'st to me In mercy given Angels to beckon me Nesyer, my Jod. to Thee, Nearer to Thee Then with ray waking tlionahts Bright with Thv .rals, Ont of my stony grfs Bethel I'll raise; So by my woes in ns Nearer, my 'iod, to Tnce.- earer to Thee; Tlie Penitent's Vow. As the starving one dreams of food, as the wanderer thinks of home, as the prodigal recalls his father's house, as the sinner longs for virtue, so Jacob, the schemer, saw in his dream that wWch was to him most desirabl. And the dream tremendously influ enced -his life. It brought him, back suddenly to a sense of God. saw himself in the liht ot presence of Jehovah. There is traffic between heaven an earth. Mortal experiences have an immortal outreach. God ts concerned in the affairs of man. He has his messengers climbing; .-unseen ladders between the spiritual .realms, what Jacob foresaw In a dream, has come to be the supreme reality of all ex istence, God has drawn near to us in the person of his own sent Son, our v Saviour. Thru hint we may havs closer, surer contact with the eternal world than came to Jacob at Bethel. In these days of long casualty lists, of contusion, suffering, perplexity and war, we all need the reassurance that came to Jaoob, that God Is not unin terested. He is not a cold and distant Deity, standing apart and remote. In different in his Ineffable majesty. BT all of his omnipotent resourcefulness, God is pressing himself and his com fort and his inspiration upon a sore hearted world. r. He wants mankind to find Him in these days of darkness. If the war should be the occasion o( a great suiritual awakening, of a turning to the Father, and of a readjustment ot life to his purposes. It will have been abundantly justified. No price is too high to pay lor tne poon ot jinaing God. The spot where ws have had a unique spiritual experience is a soul shrmt. Oriental-wise,- Jacob marked the scene of his dream with a siemor-, ial stone. His pillow became a pillar. That which had helped htm sleep be came a means, to awaken temem brance. That spot, like ever other where man meets his Maker, herama house of God, a gate of heaven. A Made-Over World. This great experience did not jnake a saint of Jacob. He had a long way yet to go on -that journey. But it did change his direction. His soul searched. God became a new factor in his life. He had learned to reckon with the infinite verities. ,It would need some hard living, a further fright, and an ver more in timate and personal experience of God, to make over his character com pletely. Jacob's vow, after his vision, seems pitifully Inadequate. He had seen, the heavens opened. Ha had heard the voice of Jehovah. A Vista of be- nign providence had been spread be fore him. Still, all that he asked,, was merely safety for this journey. and food and clothes. His vow. or bargain, was not on a lofty plane; it had no spiritual implications. If God would take care of him physical ly, he would serve God, and give him a tenth of his income! Nevertheless, Jacob was on the way to a new character. In a world full of Jacobs, 'with self-seeking and 1 Injustice and oppression rampant; 1 millions of persons are today won dering how we are going to assure a new world order. The funda mental problem Is one affecting hu man nature. It Is not enough to -break German armament, if Germaa alms abide. The motives of militar ism and materialism are more of menace than is mere might. We cannot create successfully a league of altruistic nations, if the parties thereof are the same scheming sort as we used to know. The Jacob prob-' lem is really the world problem to day. We have to change .human na ture. ..-'.'It, can't he-, done,'!. .says the, man of the world. Ah', but it has been" done. and lt"ls1)elng' done, and it! will he done, on increasingly large, scale.

HEART AND BEAUTY PROBLEMS BT MRS. ELIZABETH T1IOMPSON. Dear Mrs. Thompson: There Is a. girl in my town that I dearly love and she has qften said in her letters that she loved me. but for some reason or other she has been asking me for the picture of a boy that was given to her and which I took thru J)iay. biw sal's she does not love this boy, but do you think she would desire his pie. ture so much if she did i)ot have some love for him? I have asked her to go to several places with me and each time I asked her she said that she was sorry but it was impossible for her to go.. She used to go to entertainments with me. What de you think Is the matter? The girl should demand the picture whether she loves the boy or not. It was a Klft to "her. and as such' she should keep It from falling Into an. other person's hands. There is an eti quette about photographs which will not permit any one except the original owner to give a photograph away. Perhaps the girl did love you, nut does no longer. If she refuses your invitations two or three times more, give her up. Dear Mrs. Thompson: M" 'enrest boy friend Is In France. His birth. day comes toe fourteenth t next month.

Kansas Towns May Be Bright Once More. Ccmbing Won't Rid Hair Of Dandruff The only sure way to get rid of daidruff is to dissolve it, then you de stroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use nough to moisten the scalp and rub t In gently with the finger tips. Do this tonight and by morning most, if not all. of your dandruff will be gone and three or four more appli cations will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dan druff you may have. You will find. too. that all Itching and digging of the scalp will stop at once, and your hair will be fluffy, lus trous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better, You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and never fails to do the work. Adv. Emerson Carey, state fuel adminis trator, today lifted lightless night or ders as applied in this state. The or der lifting the illumination ban. Is ef fective immediately. Restrictions are placed only on extravagant or waste ful use of light an offense not prac ticed in Topeka or in Kansas. Bv virtue of Carey's order, street lights and illumination of buildings and exhibits may be turned on at once. In Topeka the white way lights and flood lights at the state house, have been in use several nights. The lights were permitted, however, as a special dispensation in view of the seven-in-one-drive. Carey's new reg ulation lifts the ban entirely and only In cases where an extravagant waste of light is shown, will conservation re strictions be enforced. The lighlless night order became eft fective more than a year ago. It was adopted as a war measure In the fuel conservation campaign. Recent an nouncement that coal production is now ahead of consumption and de mand, tended to lessen, restrictions. The signing of the armistice with Ger many resulted today in the removal of the order against street, flood and display lighting except In extreme cases of waste. In an ordeoaddressed to county chairmen and committee men. Carey said: Effective at once Lightless Night order us covered by Circular 40 of July ITJnd re lating to the use and maintenance of lights in cities, villages and town is here by cancelled, and in '.leu thereof the follow ing regulntlnns restricting the use in cities, villsges and towu of light generated or produced by the use of fuel Is estab lished.

A group of boys out in Wilson county cleared a tract of land of timber, sawed up the wood, hauled it and -sold it, making a rood profit on the trans action.

The story of the greatest individual aerial com bat on record became public" tooay when the Canadian military headquar ters in London announced the details of a battle fought by Maj. W. G. Barker, D. S. O., with a big flock of enemy planes. Barker went over with a New Brunswick unit, and is reported Ab.n- gerously wounded. The flyer engaged in his remark able air battle while over the forest of Morval, when he met a German piano at an altitude of 21,000 feet. After bringin git down, he was at- tacked by two other machines and after reeling and swooping downward ran into a nock of fifteen planes. He .attacked them and three fell firing at him point blank. One shot shattered his thigh. He fainted and dived, apparently to his death. Re covering consciousness, he turned and found fifteen airplanes of the foe shooting at him. Another shot shattered his left el bow and he then fell into a spiral nose spin and every conceivable stunt- After dropping a considerable dis tance, the flyer reversed and shot up ward, directly in the midst of enemy planes. Two more fell under his fusil lade. The rest of the flock spread and fled. Barker came down a huddled, lnr sensible but victorious hero. He will be awarded the Victoria cross: TO PREVENT INFLUENZA Spanish Influenza, la grippe, or pneumonia, almost invariably attacks weak, run-down, underweight people, who have lowered vitality and weak nerves. The best way to guard against these conditions and to insure having j plenty of nerva force, strength and surplus vitality is to take a five-grain food phosplfato tablet (known among druggists as Bitro-Phosphate) with each meal. This Bitro-Phosphate, eminent physicians state, ls quickly converted into healthy, living nervei tissue, ana is tne nearest in compo sition to the materials naturally found in the nerve cells of the human body of any known substance. Bitro Phosphate is Inexpensive and can be obtained from all good druggists. Advertisement.

Sprays, inhalers and nose douches are liable to irritate the delicate air passages and force the disease into the middle ear which frequently means total deafness, or else the disease may be driven down the air passages towards the lnngs which Is equally as dangerous. The following formula which Is used extensively in the damp Eng lish climate is a constitutional treatment and should prove especially efficacious to sufferers here who live under more favor able conditions. Secure from your druggist 1 ounce of Parmlnt (Double strength). Take this home and add to it pint of hot water and a little granulated sugar; stir until dissolved. Take one tablespoonful four times a day. This will often bring quick relief from distressing head noises.

Parmint used in this way acts directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system and has a tonic action that helps to obtain the desired results. The preparation is easy to make, costs little and is pleasant to take. Every person who has catarrh or head noises or is bard of hearing should give this treatment a trial. Advertisement.

OBJECT TO DRAFT Get rw of Fimpies uuick Minor Leagues Would Abolish "Farm" and "Take" Bights. New Salary Limits Set Except for Class AA Leagues. Peoria, III., Nov. 15. War between the major leagues and the minor or ganizations of the country threatens to develop as a result of action taken at the annual meeting of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues here today, protesting against the privileges of the major leagues to draft star players from the minors. The protest was embodied in a resolu tion drawn by A. It. Tearney or Chi cago, president of the Three-I league, and presented by Jack Holland, owner of the Oklahoma City club and former owner of the St. Joseph, Mo., club f the Western league. The resolution demanded that the American and Na tional leagues relinquish the right of the draft and also the practice of "farming out" players under the op tional agreement. It was adopted without a dissenting vote. Urge Withdrawal. Thomas J. Hickey, president of the American association, urged the minor league organizations to withdraw from the national agreement with the ma jors if the demand is refused. We snail demand the right to dis pose of our young stars to whom we see fit, instead of having them drafted by the major league clubs at prices ranging from 2,500 down to 1750, as prevails under existing conditions.." President Tearney said. "It is the minor leagues that develop the stars of the majors and the smaller leagues should reap the financial reward." The minor leagues, however, desire to reserve the privilege of drafting players within their own organization, high leagues drawing from lower class organizations under present regula tions. Steps will be taken to readjust tne arart prices to conform with the new legislation. The minor leagues also adoDted new salary limits and agreed to a reclassi fication of leagues with the exception of the nine that survived last season. The three class AA leagues the Pa cific Coast, American association and the International league were -ex empted from the new salary regula tions Decause or tne fear that the Pa cific Coast league contemplated play ing "outlaw" baseball. The salary limit of Class A clubs was fixed at $2,600 a month: class B, at $3,000; class C, at 1,400; and class X, at fl,200.

It was expected to be reported out by the committee today. The resolution in brief, proposes a league of free na tions, elimination of political or eco nomic restrictions to benefit some na tions and embarrass others, recognV tion of the rights of small nations, and no reprisals or territorial changes ex cept in furtherance of the welfare of peoples affected. Secondary, principles of the resolu tion affecting chiefly the wage vorker declare that human labor shall not be held as an article of-commerce; that there shall never be Industrial servi tude except am punishment for crime; that free speech and free assemblage shall not be abridged; that seamen of the merchant marine shall have the right to leave their vessels when sate in harbors, and that the eight hour workday and child labor law shall be maintained. Delegates planned to adopt this res olution today and complete all other business for which the conference was called, including the formulation of a plan for unionizing Mexican workmen in the United States.

My appetite was always poor and what I would eat never seemed to agree with fme or do me much good. I would bloat up with gas after meals and feel miserable for hours, and at times I found difficulty In breathing. My food felt like a dead weight in my stomach and there were sharp pains all up through my chest. My kidneys bothered me a great deal and my back felt achy and stiff all the time, and if I stooped over or exerted myself the least bit my baek would pain me ter ribly. I was freqnently troubled with rheumatism in my knees and my strength and energy were getting away from me. I was habitually consti pated and was taking something for this as well as for my other troubles, constantly.

I have hardly finished my secorra bottle yet, but my appetite is 'splendid already, and I haven't been bothered with gas on my stomach nor that heavy, tight feeling in my chest since I began taking Tanlac.

Tha Ameri can people, sober and accustomed to self denial thru the war. will continue to lead the "simple life." Herbert Hoover andernard Banieh helieve. Hoovers has appealed for It as a means of food conservation. Baruch haa emphasised the need for conservation and standardisation in industry and also 'la the matter of clothing. In addition to fixed prices on shoes. Baruch haa mada a start toward dress reform by asking limitation of styles in clothing and hats Including milli nery for women. Early moves toward readjustment have revealed a tendency on the part of the commercial industries to eontin. us to lean on the government for aid and direction and Baruch believes that the manufacturers of wearing apparel particularly will approve a program of standardisation uniformity in types and styles It is pointed out that in England a considerable movement toward dress reform, particularly for women, has gained headway and. that sxcravagaot ly designed gowns, various colored shoes and tancy frills will become nasse. In brief, fashion is about to dietate severe simplicity in keeping with the world's shortages. Inasmuch as it became fashionable during the war to follow military lines in dress designs, it is quite likely tnat the "smart" thing will be to observe the wool, leather and textile shortages and adopt what Baruch calls "a sane, sensible manner or ffaro. The high cost of living also enters into the consideration. The standard izatlon proposed will result in lower costs of manufacture ana resulting therefrom lower prices to th consum ing public.

WAS LIGHT VOTE Slump of More Than 25 Per Cent IsShown, i Official Returns Now la From Eighty-Two Counties. ALLEN HOLDS G. 0. P. .LEAD Capper Lost Only One County In Whole State. He Ran Ahead of Allen Sedgwick County. In Kansas general election vote slumped more than 25 per cent, ac cording to estimates based on official returns from 82 of the 105 counties -of the state. It is probable that the to tal vote for" the state may not run above the 400.000 or 425,000 mark. Two years ago the vote for governor was 582,484. Henry J. Allen of Wichita, governor elect, is leading the Republican state ticket. On the returns received at the office of J. T. Botkin, secretary of state, Alen holds a majority of 109, 283 over W. C. Lansdon, Democrat. The Allen vote in the 82 counties re ported was 203,705, while Lansdon received $4,422. The same counties gave ttovernor Arthur Capper, United States senator-elect, 199.029, with 104.f fc4 votes for Senator William H. Thompson, Democrat. The Capper majority of 94,435 is nearly 15,000 be hind that of Allen. Allen's Majority 135,000. It is apparent that the entire Re publican state ticket has won by a ma jority of nearly 100,000. The vote on the ticket below governor and United States Senator, however, is probably considerably below 400.000. Based on the present returns, it.is apparent that Allen's majority will be in the neigh borhood of 135,000 and 140,000, while Governor Capper will finish with a lead of about 115,000 to 120,000 over Senator Thompson. Failure of Allen tc exceed the plurality of 102.4S2 which was given Governor Capper in l'j.'S will be due only to the light vote. His proportionate vote will be larger, altho in 1916 both the Socialists and Prohibitionists placed state tickets in the field and polled a combined vote in excess of 35,000. Big Counties Out. Neither Wyandotte nor Shawnee county are included in the returns re ceived at the secretary of state's of fice. A number of other large coun ties, as well as many small ones are yet to hear from. It is probable that all 'returns will reach Topeka not later than Saturday or Monday. Returns as reported by the local canvassing board show that in Shaw- ness county Allen ran ahead of Cap per. Yet in Sedgwick county, Allen's home. Capper ran ahead of the home candidate for governor. While the Sedgwick returns show that Capper re ceived slightly more votes than did Allen. Senator Thompson received' more votes than did Lansdon, Allen's opponent. So far as reported. Governor Cap per lost but one county in his race for senator. He ran behind in Decatur county, which returned a small mal Jority for Thompson Every county in the state lined up in the Allen column. The apparent light vote in the No- verhber election is a general surprise to political observers. Returns had indicated heavy voting and most esti mates were for a total of 500,000. It is now apparent that the total vote will probably be under the 425,000 mark and may not exceed 400,000. DFFICWSCHOOLS CLOSED Military Training Camps Association Stops Receiving Applications.

A coroner's in quest was to be held today to fix blame for the deaths of two peace celebrators who tell dead after drinking poison from a whisky bottle at the home of Herbert A. Scharenburg, a Morton Grove banker. Scharenburg said that Edward L. Nieman and Fred Pein, neighbors, came to his home during the first cele brations and asked him if he had "anything hard to drink." He said he produced a bottle .7hich had .been hidden for two years in the rafters of a back porch and they raised their glasses in a toast to peace. Suddenly, he said, the two visitors fell dead. The liquid touched his own lips and he said he was near death for several days. A chemical analysis showed the poison was ''nicotine poison, said to be one of the deadliest poisons known to science.

Wil liams, who sang "Laddie in Khaki" and "When the Boys Come Home.' Dr. Wilbur N. Mason, of the board of administration, former president of Baker university, was then introduced by Mrs. Gossett. He delivered a very interesting address to the women on the siLbject, "Some Observations on War Time, dealing chiefly with the relation of woman to the different phases of education. He said in be ginning, This is a grand and an awful time. Better one year of these tre mendous times than a century of our forefathers." AndDoctor Mason feels that the women of today are doing their part on the level with the men. He said: "Women of today may look with level eye into the face of man and say, 'we have done our part Peace will have been achieved in a large measure on account of you and the numerous other women. The mo rale of the present time has never been equaled and women have been true every time and have measured up to the high calling. "Women have a marvelously Intri cate relation to education," said Doc tor Mason, "and they have a vital and significant work at this time." He spoke of woman's duty to promote de mocracy in education and to emDha- size the importance of the proper edu cation in her home. Guarding of ginnood is one of the first branches of education in which a woman can engage," he said. Doctor Mason is a firm believer In the public school, "not because it is Ideal, but if we make the tomorrow of today what we would have it, the Says a glass cf hot water with phosphate before breakfast keeps Hlneee away. Physicians the world over recom mend the inside bath, claiming this is of vastly more importance than out side cleanliness, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities Into the blood, causing 111 health, while the pores in the- ten yards of bowels do. Men and women are urged to drink each morning, before breakfast a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it, as a harm less means of helping to wash from the -stomach, liver, kidneys and bow els the previous day's indigestible ma terial, poisons, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and puri fying the entire alimentary canal be fore putting more food into the stom ach.

"Some time ago pimples began to appear on my forehead, and spread so that people remarked about them, and I didn't like to go anywhere on that account. I tried various creams, soaps, and skin remedies, but nothing seemed to help me. A friend of mine who had the same trouble told me she cleared her skin with Resinol Ointment and Resinol Soap, so I tried them. After the first application all the redness and soreness disappeared, and after two or three applications my friends began to ask me what I used, my face looked so much better. "Now I can go to places without being ashamed of those awful pimples, and I will never be without Resinol Ointment and Resinol Soap." Signed) Miss Jessie Torrance, 67 Beech street, Rutherford, N. J.

The end of actual fight ing has cut the 1918 cost by J6.000, 000,000 Secretary McAdoo announced, but immediate war expenses will con tinue to come. It is for these that the nation will have to provide funds, according to officials. Facing the treasury for the present fiscal year were expenditures of $18, 000,000.000,' for the fiscal year ending; June 1920, $5,000,000,000 and for the next four years, the government ex pense will range around $3,500,000, 000.

To stop falling hair at once and riu the scalp of every particle of dan druff, get a small bottle of Danderine at any dius store for a few cents, pour a little in your hand and rub well into the scalp. After several applications all dandruff disappears and the hair stops coming out. Advertisement. BE PRETTY! TURN GRAY HAIR DARK Look young! Nobody can tell if you use Grandmother's simple recipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Almost everyone knows that Sajre Tea and Sulphur, properly compound ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the. only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and trouble some. Nowadays, by asking: at' any drug store for "YVyeth's Ease and Sul phur Compound," you will get a large bottle of this famous old recipe, im proved by the adition of other inn gradients, at a smtill cost. Don't stay gray! Try it! No one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. Tou dampen a sponge or soft brush with It and draw this thru your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray Jrair disappears, and after another ap plication or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy and attractive. Wycth's -Saga and Sulphur Com pound is a dellKhtful" toilet requisite for those wtio desire dark hair and a youthful appearance. It is not in tended for the cure, mitigation or prjer vention of disease. Advertisement.

In the midst of their preparations for the Nebraska game Saturday, the Jayhawkers were hit a hard blow today by the depart ure from school of "Dutch" Lonborg, star end, for the Kansas line. He and Foster were the ground gainers in the 'same against' the Sooners last Satur day and jthe only r completed passes made were Foster to Xonborg. Lon borg leaves here for Camp Zachary Taylor where he has been admitted as a candidate for a commission as a lieutenant of artillery. He made a placemen the all-Missouri Valley team last year.. The Kansans are greatly fearful of their chances against the Cornhuskers now and every etfort is being made to strengthen the line that was so vul nerable .against the attacks of the Oklahomans. Coach Jay Bond this morning was unable to say just who would be placed at end in place of "Dutch" Lonborg. There are several speedy freshmen out for the place this year, but so far -none of them have shown any marked ability in hand ling 4h3 forward pass and Bond has no hesitation in saying that the game with the Huskers Saturday will be a kicking .and passing game. "Of course we are trying to make the score look as good as we can, but we are not really hoping for much in the way of football honors this year," said Bond last night. "We are keep ing a team in the field and are com plying with all our contracts for games and we are mighty lucky to be doing that much. What next yea.r will bring, only time will tell."

During the day Mr. IV-cAdoo was expected to appear be fore the committee and make a more detailed explanation than that con tained in his letter to Chairman Sim mons, which was made public last night. Expenditures of the govern ment during the present fiscal year were estimated by the secretary at $1 S. 000. 000. 000 In comparison with estimates of $24,000,000,000 made be fore there seemed to tie any likeli hood of peace. In explaining the need for maintaining the total sum needed by taxation this year at about $6, 000,000,000, theamount now carried by the revenue till as revised by the senate. m 1 P i; I- i i ir- i We Sell Columbia Grafonolas TO UNDERGO OPERATION Clyde Miller Has Been 111 at Homo Since Last August. Clyde Miller, who has been seriously sick at his home, 811 Buchanan street, will soon be taken to the hos pital for an operation.' Miller has been sick since early in August and for several weeks has been confined to bed In his home in Topeka. Early in August Miller came to To peka from hia ranch in Lyon county, expecting: to devote his time to his in surance work and the political cam paign. His condition, however, com pelled him to abandon his plans for active participation in the campaign and for three months he has been un der the care of a physician. For sev eral, weeks he was sick at his ranch home, coming to .Topeka early In Octoher. It is believed that following an operation Miller will soon be able to return to his offices in the Central National bank Building. Miller is widely known in state1 politics a.nd was urged by a number of his friends as chairman of the Republican state com mittee. Because of his physical con dition, however, he refused to be a candidate. In 1916 Miller was the Republican nominee, for congress In the Fourth district.
