VICKERS PLANE "HOPS OFF" AT NEWFOUNDLAND Huge British Plane Will At tempt Nonstop Flight. Flyers Intend To Follow Haw ker's Course Across. CAPTAIN ALCOCK AT WHEEL Lieut. A. AV. Brown, American, Is His Navigator. Machine Has High Speed and Full Wireless Equipment. St. Johns. June 14. Off on an at tempted non-stop flight over the At lantic from Newfoundland to Ireland, the British Vickers airplane left St. Johns at 12:13 p. m. today. New York time. The machine, with Capt. John Al cock at the wheel, made a good start, rising from the ground after a run of 150 yards. The plane swept north of the city and msanpeared over the sea in a northeasterly direction. At the' start, the Vickers scudded close to the ground then rose grad ually to an altitude of 1,000 feet. Crowd Clieers Start. A crowd of spectators gave Alcock and his navigator, Lieut. A. W. Brown, an American in the Royal air force, a cheer as their plane hopped off. The streets quickly filled as people ran out of their houses and out of the shops to see the aviators starting for Ireland. All points of vantaRe were thronged with New foundlanders, who watched the plane as it grew smaller and smaller over the wirte expanse of ocean, and finally dwindled out of sight. There was a strong west wind which will probably help the-aviators over the first part of their perilous voyage. Navigator Brown expected to fol low generally the course laid out by Hawker, this being the most direct route from Newfoundland to Ireland. The Vickers was equipped with a wireless which operated successfully over a wide range in preliminary trials. Brown intended to keep in touch with ships by radio all the way across. Only 67 Feet Wide. The machine has a wing spread of only sixty-seven feet, and is equipped with two 350 horsepower Rolls-Royce motors, said to be capable of develop ing a speed of more than 100 miles en hour. The capacity of the gasoline tanks was recently enlarged to 865 gallons, and the lubricating- oil tanks to 50 gallons, which is believed suf ficient to carry the plane 2,440 miles under normal weather conditions. A wireless telegraph set capable of send ing and receiving messages over com paratively long distances Is part of the equipment. C;i p. Jack Alcock, the pilot, was among the ISritish pioneers in avia tiort. He obtained his flying certifi cate in 1912 and Joined the Royal Na val Air service immediately upon the outbreak of the war. He acted as an instructor at first but was later sent to the Turkish front where he held the lecn-d for long distance bombing rail's. He was later captured by the Turks and held prisoner until the ar mistice was signed. Lieut. Arthur Whitten Brown, navi gator of the Vickers-Vimy plane, also is a veteran of the war. having served first as an Infantry officer and later in the I'.ritish aviation service until an accident to the machine in which he was an observer late in 1915 forced a nescent in ticrman territory where he was wounded and taken prisoner. Fought Flames in Air. Lieutenant Brown's first notable ex ploit was in a plane in which he was acting as senior observer. A shell set the machine afire 8.000 feet above the German positions and while the pilot raced to reach the British lines, Brown fought the flames to prevent isnition of the ammunition, succeed ing after nearly all his clothes had been burned off. In another air cruise he helped to bring down an enemy albatross, and in November of the war s second year, he set out is a squadron on a long distance recon naissance from which his plane did not return. The caroureter froze and when the pilot landed far within the German lines. Brown, unable to strap himself in, because he was busy de stroying papers of military impor tance, was catapaulted into the fusel age and had to be cut out. One thiirh was dislocated, one leg broken end his lip cut. After what he described as "the kindest treatment" in a German hos pital the aviator was transferred to a prison camp, eventually being In terned in Switzerland, and returned to England in 1917. when he became a leciurerforthe air ministry.

TWO PROGRAMS IN TOPEKA Celebrations at Memorial Hall Afternoon and Night. City Decorated With Flags Downtown and Out. Honor the flag! Today is the 142nd anniversary of the birth of Old Glory the flag of flags, and the emblem of history's greatest nation. Born in a time of war and strife it has become the symbol of peace and prosperity, of love, loy alty and purity; the symbol of protec tion for the weak and the emblem of destruction for the oppressor. Tradition gives to Betsey Ross the honor of making the first American flag in Philadelphia and Henry Mos ler's painting. "The Birth of the American Flag" is among the most famous pieces of American art. Ob scure as is the origin of Old Glory, certain It is that it originated in those trying times when our forefathers were striving against immensely su perior odds to make free those few colonies which were eventually to ex pand into the greatest nation the world has ever known a nation of which even Washington never dreamed. Flag Adopted in 1777. The Revolutionary and p re-Revolutionary controversies brought In all manner of colors and designs of flags, but it was not until June 14, 1777, that the present flag was adopted by con gress, the act specifying that there should be thirteen stripes, alternately ted and white, and thirteen white stars on a field of blue, "representing a new constellation." It was later voted to maintain the thirteen stripes representing the original thirteen col onies and add a new star for each new state. Thus originated the American flag, on which today the sun never sets: the flag that nations have learned to re spect and which means so much, to every true American; a flag that has never known defeat nor been stained with blood needlessly shed: a flag to (Continued on Page Two.) PROBE THE MAILS Congress Intends To Investi gate Burleson's Organization. Result of Reported Heavy Lost Parcel Post Matter. Washington, June 14. Congress to day gave evidence of its intention to learn something definite about the country's mail service. A resolution to inquire into reported heavy losses of parcel post matter will be used as an entering wedge to obtain informa tion about the whole mail service. Hearings on the resolution are sched uled to start Tuesday before the house postoffice committee. The postoffice department included in its appropriation estimate one item which was designated to take care of losses paid on non-delivered parcels post packages. Committee members, many of whom have been flooded with complaints against the postal service, have determined to go to the bottom of the situation. Chairman Steenerson asserted. A sub-committee already has been named by Chairman Steenerson to probe orders of the postmaster gen eral which Steenerson declared had demoralized the rural mail delivery (service in some localities. Its mem bers, while not participating in the in vestigation of its mall servce. will at tend the hearings, it was said.

VILLAARMY STRONG Numbers 4,400 Men Easily Take Juarez, Says Courier. El Paso, Tex., June 14. A courier, who arrived last night from the rebel headquarters near Zaragosa, less than thirteen miles from Juarez, reports that the rebels have 4,400 men, all armed with rifles and each man sup plied with 300 rounds of ammunition. Two field guns of eight machine guns are Included in the rebel fighting equipment. At the time the courier left the camp, the intention was to at tack Juarez before daylight tomorrow morning.- The courier, who Is a well known, reliable man. tho a strong partisan of Villa, declares there is not the slight est doubt of the ability of the rebels to capture Juarez. Ange'es is in supreme command of the expedition, tho Francisco Villa, with a bodyguard of 300 men, is pres ent in person. The courier also brought a report of the destruction of the Mexican Central railway line by the rebels, including the drawing and burning of 78,000 railway ties between Moctezuma and Chihuahua City, and similar destruction between Chihua hua City and Santa Rosalia", to the south. The delay in attacking Juarez is accounted for by the statement that General Angeles was awaiting the ar rival of Villa, who was delayed on account of remaining behind to ar range for medical aid for his brother. Juarez, Mex., June 14. A skirmish occurred between federals and ad vanced troops of General Angeles at 4:30 o'clock Friday afternoon. Several are reported killed on the federal side.

Felipe Angeles, commander of the rebel forces in the vicinity of Juarez, grant ed a four hour interview to a corre spondent of the Associated Press this afternoon. With General Angeles, at his headquarters, is Martin Lopez, next in command; Raymond Vega, and General Holguin. General Angeles is In the best of spirits and says he is confident of his cause. The forces of General Angeles are well equipped, his cavalry horses are the best seen below the border and equal those of American cavalry. Gen eral Angeles is well supplied with funds and states he is paying for ev erything he obtains from the ranch folk. The most surprising thing is his men they are not the ordinary run of rev olutionists, they are big and strong and when some were asked about Juarez they smiled and said: "Wp can take Juarex in three hours." o 9l m w w A W -Z&',.4: 0 gf Jf J GOOD ROADS TAGS Pretty Girls Out in Big Cam paign Today. Effort To Complete $10,000 Fund at Once. It is tag day in Topeka today. A double score of pretty Topeka maid ens are working in the throngs on Kansas avenue searching out the sun dry dollars of the citizens for the swelling of the good roads fund of $10,000. Before the tag artists went onto the streets at 11 o'clock this morning it was decided that the slogan for the day should be "a dollar a tag" but it was also decided that smaller con tributions would not be refused. The fund of $10,000 is being raised In a campaign put on under the auspices of the Kansas Good Roads association and the ultimate objective of the drive is to make Topeka the model good roads county of the state. The goal in the campaign is 310,000 and there is no doubt in the minds of the campaign directors but this sum will be raised easily. In fact, five of the men's teams which have been working for the last two days have already indicated that they have on hand a total of more than $4,000 to report. And there are twenty-three other teams out which have let no indication of the net re sults of their solicitation leak out. These teams, twenty-eight of them, represent seven civic organizations which are fostering the campaign the Rttary club, the Interservice club, the Co-Operative club, the North To peka Civic club, the Topeka Motor Dealers' association, the Topeka Auto mobile club and the Square Circle club. The tag day campaign is put on un der the auspices of the Rota club, an organization of business women which rivals any organization in the city for work of a civic nature well and cheer-' fully performed. Under direct com mand of Mrs. June Chapman, chair man of the Rota club tag day com mittee, the half hundred girls were as signed stations on Kansas avenue. On the south side of the river nearly thirty girls were working under com mand of Miss Faeben Williams, act ing as department commander, and half a dozen other girls as captains of squads. On the north side of the river the squads were in charge of Miss Er nestine Biby as department command er. Miss Jeanette Dooley acted as general supply officer. It was the expectation of J. A. Fans Ier, manager of the Kansas Good Roads association, that thenet results of the tag day enterprise of the cam paign would approximate about $400 or $S00. It is certain that the girls willj be sadly disappointed unless that amount is contributed thru their good roads boxes. SHAKEUP IN clNA Cabinet Resigns and President Threat ens To Over Japan.

Wichita Man Is Charged With Beceiying Liquor. After receiving much bitter criti cism for dismissal of the J. T. Hussey liquor case in .Wichita, R. J. Hopkins, attorney general, has passed the buck to J. A. Conley, county attorney. Hopkins has asked Conley to investi gate and determine whether a second action against Hussey is advisable. The case against Hussey had been dis missed on motion of the attornev een- eral's office "for want of prosecution," ana tne journal entry carries tne no tation "O. K. R, J. HoDkins. Attv. fGen." Myra McHenry, widely' known tem perance advocate, this week asserted that she proposed to plaster the state with posters and letters telling of the action of the Kansas attorney gen eral. She declared that Hussey was dismissed, as she believed, because of his influence as a club man. The case has attracted state-wide atention in view of the fact that Hussey was caught with the goods in his posses sion and was released without a trial. The case was also dropped without consultation with S. M. Brewster, for mer attorney general, who started the case and is said to have refused to ac cept a compromise plea of guilty on one count. Liquor Was Fine Wine, Hussey had 120 quarts of Califor nia wine in his big motor car when arrested, it is charged. The wine had been shipped from California labeled "olive oil."

Lucken bach arrived today with about 3.&00 officers and men, most of whom are from Texas, Oklahoma, North Caro lina, and Tennessee. Operators and Linemen Agree To Quit Jobs Monday. Attempt To Settle ControTersy Meets With Failure. Unless a satisfactory agreement can be reached between the Southwestern Bell Telephone company and the op erators' and linemen's union, the tele phone service in the city will probably be completely tied up Monday. At a Joint meeting of the operators and linemen in the Knights of Pythias hall Friday night, it was unanimously voted to walk out at 8 o'clock Monday morn ing in compliance with the request of the national headquarters unless' an agreement could be reached with the company. The linemen and operators are ask ing for increased wages and-demanding that the company recognize their locals as units of the American Fed eration of Labor, it is said. The union men claim that they have placed their demands before officials of the com pany, while the officials declare that this is not true. Officials Are Silent. Lately the company officials have adopted an attitude of silence in re gard to any measures that may be adopted in the event of a strike. A few days ago C. H. Benzel, general manager, stated that If the employes walked ou'. the plant would be entirely closed down and guards stationed around it. Today, however, he refused to repeat this assertion, stating that he had no information to give out and that he did not know what the com pany would do. The company officials claim that the workers have no cause for any grievance against the company, and they are making salaries that aggre gate more than the company's reven ues. If the employes strike, they say. it will be merely because or a sympa thetic attitude toward the national strikers. No Raise Demanded, He Says. Benzet stated today that he had nev er, since he had been in his present office, talked to any of his employes regarding a raise, or recognition of the union, or had any conversation with them concerning a strike. Neith ershad any of the other officers talked to them, he stated. J. A. Armstrong, traffic superintendent, when asked if Miss Lillian Brain, president of the operators' local, had not called upon him in his office this morning to con fer with him regarding the matter, would not make a positive denial, but checked the matter up to Benzel. In the event that the strike takes place, it will affect more than 150 op erators and 49 linemen In iha city. The strike would probably be confined to Topeka and perhaps a few of the larger cities of Kansas, as the opera tors over the state are not strongly or ganized. Officials met in Benzel's of fice this morning to talk the' matter over, but Insisted that they had no In formation to give, out. RIVER IS RISING But Weather Bureau Looks for A o Danger Stage.

In thirty minutes more than one-halt an inch of rain fell. According to F. A. Math, observer, the rain probably was general thru out eastern Kansas At 2 o'clock this afternoon, however, he had no reports from other towns. Math said that the rain this mtaming was of the type designated as a local thunder shower. The rainfall may be either light or heavy, lasting for about one-half hour and then passing on to some other point to repeat the sprinkling process. As this type of rain is not continuous nor of long duration, it is not ex pected to add anything to the burden of the rivers and will have little effect in causing any great rise. The Kaw is rising slowly again. The stage at 2 o'clock was 15.8. feet. Math predicts that the river will rise to between 17 and IS feet. He does not anticipate any danger from the Kaw. All other streams In Kansas are railing and many have reached an almost normal stage already. The showers will stop for a while tonight, it is predicted, and tomorrow is expected to be a fair, sunshiny day.

CONFER BEFORE CONVENING Strangling of Business Argu ment for New Laws. Copy of Suffrage Amendment Has Been ReceiTed. Possibility that the legislature may go into the wire strike situation in Kansas were discussed today by sev eral legislators who are here for ths special session which convenes Mon day noon. Telephone employes in To peka and several other townare dus to walk out at 8 o'clock Monday morn ing. In view of this situation several legislators today considered measures which would either provide compul sory arbitration or protect against a tie-up of business thru strikes and lock-outs affecting public service cor porations. The fact that the state legislature meets In Topeka at almost the very hour the wire strike is to begin may affect both the strike and the activi ties of the session. Demands have been made by a number of legislator for jstrict adherence to the governor's call ratification of nation suffrage and adjournment. But the new strike situation, coupled with the desire of many members to introduce bills rn sundry subjects, may affect the activi ties of house and senate members. BUI Was I'p Last Winter. Last winter Representative Free man presented a bill which would take strike and lock out matters before the public utilities commission. It pro vided for subsequent court relief. The bill was not satisfactory to either la bor leaders or corporation heads. But with the possibility that a wire strike may paralyze telephone service in many localities In Kansas, there Is a chance that the legislature will over step the governor's desire and take strike action. Whether such a meas ure would naturally carry with it the consideration of other proposed laws was also discussed today by the early arrivals for the .pectal session. One legislator today suggested an enactment which would prohibit a tie up of a public utility thru a strike or lockout until any dispute or conten tion had been settled by a board or commission. Other members would go even further and prcwiAs frr board or commission action In settling public service corporation disputes' and bar ring entirely the rights of public utili ties employes to walk out. Arguments for Bill. The fact that the strike situation affects business and Industrial condi tions in a most vital manner is one of the arguments for presentation of a bill covering the problem of public service corporation strikes. Final ac tion as to the introduction of proposed strike legislation will probably be taken at a conference of house and senate leaders some time before the opening of the session. Mrs. Lilla Day MorAe of -Topeka has received a certified copy of the federal suffrage amendment. Mrs. Monroe, who is at the head of the National Women's party in Kansas, secured a copy of the federal amend ment before it was received in state house departments. Copies of the resolution to be of fered in the house and senate Monday have already been prepared. The resolution merely ratifies in formal legal terms the action of the national congress in granting to women of the United States the right of equal suf frage.

"The spec tacle of the United States divided in its support of its president while he is fighting Jot his country on foreign soil invites every enemy in every part of the world to oppose our policies and insist on its own all to the humilia tion of the United States." declared ex Senator JamPS Hamilton Lewis of Il linois, in a Flag day address here to day. "The president of the United States," he continued, "while repre senting our people abroad as a nation is not serving as a party politician; he serves as spokesman in Europe for all Americans. What our nation needs, then, is more national patriotism and less political partyism." Mr. Lewis -iied history in support of his conten tion that the peril of every people omes not during conflict, but after war has ceased, and he continued: This nation will come from the peace table without a friend. Those nations that are not of the so-called aliies wjll go away preaching revenge against the United States as the author of all their losses; such nations will hold the United States responsible for what it does not get, however much it may obtain. 'Germany will charge us with re sponsibility for burdening its nation w.th debt. Some Russians will charge us with failing her and others will emu plain that we prevented develop ment of liberty there. Japan, controll ing the Orient, will rtitaliate whenever possible against our policy f exclud ing her people and will sit with Ori ental patience quietly awaiting the hour when she may join with 'brood ing Russia' and revengeful Germany in eppusitiuu to the United States of America."

When 'Hopkins succeeded Brewster in office the case was assigned for trial at the April term of court. The day following this assignment and sixteen days before the date of trial, Clif Matson, aa assistant attorney gen eral, went to Wichita and dismissed the case.

US GROVV- PHONE HEINIES' 'PER TAG' Saturday, June 21, Will Be Big Day for Germany., Resume War Then If They Re fuse To Sign. OPTIMISM AT PEACE TABLE Allies Belieye Enemy Will Hare To Accept. 'Big FItc" Has Treaty Jfearly Ready for Printer. Paris, June 14. Saturday, June 2t, apparently will be "der tag" for the Germans. i There was every indication today that within a week Germany's answer will be known she will either accept or reject the revised peace treaty. This was based on the assumption that the reply to the German counter proposals will be submitted Monday and that the enemy will be given five days' in which to reach a decision. It is the understanding in the highest American quarters that this period also will include the three days for renunciation for the armistice, pro vided for in the original terms of that document If the Germans do not accept the new conditions, the armistice would be declared at an end after the first two days, and the allies would be free to resume hostilities on Saturday, the final day, or rejection or acceptance. Big; Five Hard at Work. The' council of five continued the work of editing the revised peace treaty this morning, at the same time enabling Baron Makino, the Japanese representative, to acquaint himself with the document. The work Is near ly completed and it is believed the treaty will go to the revision commit tee late tonight. It is said that It will be printed and ready for delivery to the Germans Monaay or uuesoay. It is the present plan of the council to renew consideration of the Austrian terms Monday. Representatives of Turkey will be received today. If no other developments arise -t-resiaeni Wilson probably will make his trip to Brussels between Wednesday and the expiration of the German time limit. Modifications Made. Some modifications were made by the council yesterday in the labor cov enant in the peace treaty. The existing labor situation in va rious countries coupled with clever German tactics, had resulted in this part of the treaty becoming one of the principal points 01 attacK in tne coun ter oroDosals. The situation caused a lengthy discussion which resulted in certain modifications in the conven tion. The allied reply to the German pro posals, it developed today, will lay par ticular stress upon the character of the permanent reparations commis sion. It will b6 explained to the Ger mans that this commission is not a tyrannical body, but that it will ad minister its duties In a spirit of fair ness and helpfulness so as to facilitate Germany's economic reconstruction. Chose Short Time. It is learned that the short time limit given Germany for a reply is largely due to the Germans them selves. They are understood to have said they would not require more than five days to reach a decision. (Fri day night's dispatches said only two days would be given for the answer, with three days of grace before the armistice was suspended in the event of a German refusal to sign). While reports from Germany on the pros pects of Germany's signing the treaty are lacking in clarity, it is known that the council is acting on the be lief that there is no general feeling on the part of the-maases against German acceptance of the terms. An air of optimism pervades the council in this respect. Confidence was expressed tonight by the British, French and American delegates to the peace conference that the reply to the German counter pro posal will be completed and delivered to the Germans Monday with a pro vision that the Germans will be given two days in which to answer. Iteaumo Battle June 21 If With three days of grace before the armistice- is suspended there will be a resumption of hostilities Satur day, June 21, if the Germans refuse to sign. The indisposition of the council of four to submit the revised German treaty to a plenary session of the conference before sending it to the Germans Is, however, causing an other protest from the small powers which resent "steam roller" methods. This may force the calling of another plenary session, which would cause further delay. The small powers are dissatisfied with assurances that, the changes made in the treaty are slight and many of the delegates are insist ing on an apportunity to consider the treaty fully before it is presented to the enemy peace mission.

FIGHT County Attorneys Are Meeting in Hutchinson Today, Jack Gavell, I. W. W. Leader, Is Arrested There. Hutchinson, Kan., June 14. County attorneys from some thirty counties of Kansas will meet here today with W. L. Holloway, of Kansas City, Kan., assistant United States attorney for Kansas, and with a representative from the office of Attorney General Richard J. Hopkins to make plans for concerted action in connection with the threatened invasion of In dustrial Workers of the World into the Kansas wheat fields. Reports from many parts of the wheat belt, to the federal authorities, indicate the gathering of persons well supplied with I. W. W. literature and membership blanks. One so supplied, upon his arrest here, gave the name of Jack Gavell, and admitted he had been Indicted in Chicago in the Hay wood group for conspiracy to defeat the espionage act and the selective draft law. Word from Chicago last night indicated Gavell was one of the editors of Solidarity, an I. W. W. pub lication. Indicative of the number of I. W. W. coming is a report to the federal authorities from Sheriff J. H. Griffin, of Belleville, Republic county, that the county Jail is filled with persons held in conaection with the visit of I W. W. to the wheat fields. In connection with the plan for con certed action by thfe county attorneys. Attorney General Hopkins a few days ago sent a letter to all county and city police officers calling their atten tion to the laws regarding vagrancy and the making of threats, and indi cated that these laws would cover much of the Industrial Workers of the World activities, and be available for curbing these activities if they inter fered in any way with the harvesting f the wheat crop.

Attorney General and Bank Commissioner Apart. SALINA PEOPLE WON'T HELP Try To Hide broeker Transac tions, It Is Charged. State Probe Means Loss to Fnnd It Is Declared. Resentful .nd bitter because Sa lina and Saline county people have not taken kindly to the apparently premature arrest of Felix Broeker In connection with the Kansas State bank failure, Maurice McNeill has told lust what. he thinks of the situa tion. McNeill is aspecial assistant at torney general, ana was sent to sa lina to investigate some of the records in the bank failure. McNeill is anxious for Saline county to pay some of the expense of Investi gating. But Instead of encourage ment, McNeill appears to have run straight Into opposition. In an inter view at Sauna, McNeill admits that bank officials attorneys and the re ceiver in charge .of the case resent the action of R. J. Hopkins, attorney general, initbe Broeker matter. But McNeill calls the attention of the pub lic to the fact -that "the attorney gen eral's office now Includes a different personnel than in former days." This remark was given in support of claims of wholesale prosecutions by the at torney general's office. In the state house this week there has been much gloom and sorrow in connection with the Salina bank case. Just when it was apparent that Felix Broeker and his associates were in a position to pay over the shortages. At torney General Hopkins is said to have caused Broeker's arrest, frightened his associates and caused the bank fund to lose several hundred thousand dollars in funds which would have been available for payment of short ages. It was the plan of Walter B. Wilson, state bank commissioner; Col. Fred Fitzpatrick, receiver; and attor neys employed by the receiver, to get the money first. Then arrests might be made. Hopkins smashed the plans which had been so carefully laid by caCfsing the issuance of a warrant for Broeker. Then Hopkins gave a long interview to the newspapers. McNeill Tells of Attitude. Out at Salina this week, McNeill is trying to overcome the cool and slight ly unfriendly attitude of the people of the community. In an interview he snid: "There are so many people here sewed up iu some direct or remote way with the Felix ltroeker 'ransactions that they aay they cannot tell anything without jeopar dizing their interests, whether personal or business," Mr. McNeill said today. "However, while the attorney genernl'a office is greatly dissatisfied and disgusted with the co-operation being given the prosecution by Salina people we Intend to go ahead. Every transaction ever con ducted by Broeker will be Investigated, and anyone in Saline county er anywhere else involved will be prosecuted if their part in the deala is criminal. We intend to go back to transactions in the Globe Life Insurance business, aa well as into affairs of the old Traders' State Bank. "Bank officials, receivers, attorneys and many othera have beeu bitterly resentful because of the recent arrest in Kansas City of Felix Broeker Mr. McNeill said, "which is another hindrance to our efforts at prosecuting the case. I realize that people here have some grounds for doubt ing the prosecution, but the attorney gen eral's office now includes a different per sonnel than in former days. We had re lied on Salina and Saline county people to help ns with the securing of evidence, thinking that if evidence could be secured anywhere it would be here. The attitude we encounter is a surprise snd a disap pointment." H. 3. Lefferdink, cashier of the bank, has not been arrested altho a warrant was issued for him two days before the bank closed.

The quick- rebound in prices this week Cheap Gas Winter WEATHER FEATHER FORECAST for Kansas: Partly cloudy unsettled. Sunday generally fair, not much change In temperature. Another Illustration how a price for natural gas nearer In line with Its actual worth, eliminates waste of the fuel and extends the period in which people of this section may have Nature's best fuel for cooking and lighting in their homes. With the temperature on January 2 as low as E degres below zero, perfect service was given to all sections of the olty and the demand for gas was 20, SSI, 000 cubic feet The city demanded 20,41,000 cubic feet, April 28, when the lowest temperature was 61 degrees above zero. The highest tem perature that day waa 60 and the mean temperature 66 degrees. (The price of gas in Kansas City tn both months was 80 cents a thousand cubic feet In cities, where a low price Is charged for gas, the, demand responds Immediately to the rise and fall of the temperature. Cold days invariably mean a highly increased de mand which, if not demoralizing to service in some sections of the city farthest removed from the pipeline connections, means an undue strain on the sources of supply. This results in Irre parable damage to gas wells and gas fields and hastens the time when natural gaa will be no more. KANSAS NATURAL OAS CO. lireea Halt X Oreea Horse Hare.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNALSATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 14, 1919 LAW IS VIOLATED Tooeka Avenue Boulevard Is teing Used by Trucks. Residents Were Promised This Would Be Prohibited. NEW SURFACE DAMAGED No Attention Paid to the "Cut Out" Regulations. Police Do 'ot Enforce Ordi nance of the City. Altho an ordinance making Topeka avenue a boulevard became effective on July 6, 191 S. violations have been as manifold and as flagrant as they were before. A few days ago a regular parade ol five motor tractors went drilling up the avenue, their motors popping loudly and the heavy wheels diggins into the surface of the pavement. This morning another tractor was observed making a speedway of the boulevard. Altho there are prohibi tions regulating traffic on the boule vard speeding has continued, motor car and motorcycle drivers travel up and down the full length of the street with their cut-outs wide open. Per haps they enjoy the rhythmic ex plosions of a smooth running motor hut to the persons who live up and down the street it is a source of con stant annoyance and a decided nui sance, rattle have been driven the full length of the street. Heavy trucks for hauling drayage and other ma terial, still use the street. Promli-'Otl To Protect Street. When the new surface was put down on Topeka avenue making it the: best surfaced street in the city of To pekag. the commissioners in office at that time promised that the surface of the street would be protected. This wr never done. The new ordinance creating a boule vard of Topeka avenue provides for every contingency affecting the regu lation of traffic on the boulevard. Altho there Is an ordinance the citi zens themselves cannot enforce the reculntions. That Is the rea son for police departments. It is now the duty of the police department to see to the regulation of traffic on Topeka avenue the same as they do bootlegging and other enjoyable forms of pastime, citizens point out. The ordinance as passed prohibits the use on the boulevard of any trac tor, engine, circi.s wagon, or any wagon, cart, truck, dray, or other vehicle constructed or used for freight, rr carrying goods. merchandise, groceries, ice. milk, except in cases where deliveries are made from the cross street nearest the house they de sire to reach. It prohibits the driving of herds of cattle, horses, mules, hogs or sheep. Violators Liable to Fine. The ordinance also designates that street cars shall stop on the near side before going on across the boulevard, as is done in all cities where there are boulevards. Many persons living on Topeka ave nue are becoming incensed over the fact that altho there is a stringent or dinance apparently no effort Is being made by the city administration or po lice department to compel enforce ment of the provisions. Every one who has broken any of the provisions of the ordinance is liable to arrest and a fine of from 5 to $100 for each of f enre. I'er.-ons back of the movement to make Topeka avenue a boulevard are now backing a movement to gain en forcement of the provisions of the or dinance. There will soon be warning signs placed at various points on the avenue telling what is prohibited. It has also been suggested that the motorcycle po licemen burn up some of the gasoline they use in a campaign of education along the boulevard.

4 SPORT NOTES BASEBALL IS BACK Leagues Will Spring Up Like Weeds 'ext Year. Tearney Makes Promise Great Future for Minors. Chicago. June 14. Baseball Is back. Thi is official, emanating from no less a person than Al R. Tearney. Tearney, the original "home rule for minors" advocate and president of an occasional minor league or two, ees a ereat future for the little fel lers His prediction is based on the success of the Western and Three-Eye leagues this years. He presidents for both. "Next year there will be minors 01 all classifications A, B, C, etc., trol ley leapue, overnight and twilight leagues," Tearney said today. Folks are baseball hungry. Some places they are baseball crazy. Just yuu watch, there'll be professional baseball from one end of the country to the other next year. There would be this year but it s a trifle late to start. All that's needed is a leader. I ve been working on a class A league for Ohio. There's an ideal string ox cities down there with the, necessaTy popu lation, equipped with parks and ready to go. They just didn t start, inereu he a league there next summer. I ex pect the minor league meeting this fall to be the hottest we've had In a Ions; time. Tearney's two leagues, he said, are t illing nicely. Both are drawing well, allowing for vagaries of weather and tlie "Sunday towns," ills that beset every minor outfit.

No fewer than S00 special trains will be run to To ledo for the heavyweight champion ship contest between Dempsey and Jess Willard on July 4, Tex Rlckard, promoter of the contest, said oday. With the contest three weeks away, Rickard said that 167 special trains already have been booked and that he expects at least 160 more. These spe cials include only trains coming from considerable distances In the United States and Canada. Besides the rail roads most of the lake steamship companies are planning to run special boats here ana ancnor in maumee Bay. Rickard received word from 1 i 1 n..

That's What Challenger Will Be In Willard's Hands, Says-Archr. Toledo, June 14. Ray O. Archer, Willard's business manager, Is of the opinion that Dempsey will be a play thing in Willard's hands in the In dependence day match. "Don't get the Impression that Wil lard is under-estimating Dempsey," said Archer. "We admit that he is a wonderful fighter, but we are con vinced that he will be a plaything in the hands of a giant like Jess. It is mv honest oninion that he will be un able to hurt Jess at all. Hitting Wil lard hard enough to sting him will be vastly different from knocking over the class of heavyweights Demp sey has defeated. Willard never has been badly hurt in any fight and this engagement will be no exception." Willard has increased the capacity of his canvas enclosed arena nearly- double In anticipation or a big crowd of admirers tomorrow. The enclosure will accommodate about 6,000 per sons. A 20-FOOT RIXG Championship Battleground Will Be Smaller Than Begulation Sixe. Toledo, O.', June 14. Jess Willard an Jack Dempsey will meet in their world's heavyweight championship contest here July 4 in a 20-foot ring. instead of the regulation Z4-iooi en closure. This announcement was made by Tex Rickard. promoter of the contest, after he had obtained the consent of both men. Rickard said that reducing the size of the ring will enable him to save 400 square feet a't the ringside, to install additional press seats, the demand for which has exceeded all expectations. "You can make it 'fifteen feet square for all I. care," was Dempsey's reply to Hickard's proposal. When Willard heard of the chal lenger's remark, he said: "It does not make any difference to me what size you make the ring. The smaller it is the harder it will be tor .Demysey to get away from me. Willard did his boxing for the first time yesterday attired in fighting trunks, instead of full-length tights he has worn heretofore, and there was a murmur of admiration from the crowd of 1,500 persons when he climbed thru the ropes. When Willard started tugging at the weights, the crowd surged toward the ring tg carefully inspect his waist line, which has been concealed from public eye for three years. There was a slight roll of fat just above the kidneys, but Willard explained that be can easily remove that poundage in the remain three weeks of hxs training period. It was revealed today that the champion is close to his fighting weight and that he expects to enter the ring weighing about 245 pounds,) iiii.il mil nmnT 1111,1 1 1 11 1 Rliu IIKI1 pounds lighter than when he fought Jack Johnson at Havana. Willard scaled 252 pounds after the workout yesterday. He has- reduced fifteen pounds since his arrival here two weeks ago. BONEBRAKE IS NOW OUT WlUiney and Bockcnkamp Fight for Trans-Mississippi Honor. St. Xouis, Mo.. June 14.

Nugent of Kansas City. 9 up and 8 to go, and Bockenkamp won from Ar thur Bonebrake of Topeka. 11 and 9. The semi-finals proved a surprise to the large gallery of spectators, who had picked the Topeka boy aa a final ist. "Bonie shot the poorest golf that he had played during the week and his 18-year-old public links opponent played a steady, accurate game. The puttingof Bonebrake was not up to scratch.

N. West, president of the Topeka Coun try club, today, "will prove to be a big thing for Topeka and Kansas In golfing circles. Not only In the west but also all over the county, as this meeting is one of the big events of the year among the followers of the game. Bonebrake's performance, coming so soon after the fine work done by Frank Griggs and E. A. Campbell at Kansas City last year, will be very apt to make the golfers who attend these tournaments sit up and take notice. They will realize that in the future Topeka will have some one there who is to be reckoned with before the finals are reached. "It also clearly demonstrates to members of the Country club the ne cessity for an early development and putting in first-class playing condition their eighteen-hole course, which is conceded by the best authorities to be one of the finest in the country and one which will rank with the best for tournament play. When this is done, Tdpeka need- have no hesitancy in going after big events of this kind, as she will have a golf course second to none in beatsty and architectural con struction. There is one very impor tant thing that the Country club golfers should bear in mind in con nection with these tournaments, and that Is that if they anticipate send ing someone good enough to make a .showing against such talent as is rep resentee: mere, it is almost Impera tive that a first-class professional and coach be kept and maintained by the club, and considered as a part of its necessary equipment. The right type of man will be of unlimited assistance to those anticipating, taking part in these events. The women of Kansas will probably organize a Woman s Kansas. Golf as sociation this summer as an auxiliary of the State Golf association. In To peka and other golfing centers, the women realize that some recognition should be made of their playing. At the state tournament, there always is a contest among women, but it is of small importance when the state affair is going one. It is believed that the movement will be started in Topeka and taken up with every golf club in Kansas. Those who are backing the plan believe that it is quite possible for a ladies' state tournament to be held before next fall. Last night the members of the To peka Country club sent a telegram of congratulations to Arthur Bonebrake, who was not eliminated until the semi finals in the Trans-Mississippi tourna ment at St. Louis. It Is probable that the Country club will hold its annual invitation tourna ment this fall. For the past two years this has been dispensed with on ac count of the war, but this year it is hoped that the tournament can be held, visiting golfers from nearly ev ery club in Kansas, and in other west ern states, always attend the Topeka invitation tournament, which is of in terest to followers of the game. The following men have been voted into membership of the Shawnee Golf club: Chester A. Holcombe, Cen tral y. M. C. A Carl Erickson, 621 West Tenth: Ainslie Anthony, 1127 Polk street; N. W. Benning. Central Y. M. C. A.; D. J. Johnson, 1426 Har rison street: M. C. Pennekamp, War ren Li. Bailey. 1330 Harrison street. and P. W. Agrelius, 1703 Fillmore street. Herb Armstrong, of the Shawnee club, has suggested a plan that will be carried out shortly. All match players will carry an American flag to be displayed from a golf bag by a caddy. This flag will betrecognized on the course as match play and will give the players absolute right of way. The flag does away with the necessity of sending out an envoy caddy every time a match wishes to go thru the golfers ahead. Otis Hungate, prominent Topeka attorney, is the hobbiest hobbier of the Shawnee links. Ote is a lover of horses and cattle and an authority, too. Just to keep up his study of live stock he owns a cow. Each morning he takes the first car to Highland park, near the golf links, and armed with a bucket he milks his pastured Holstein. Now the first car always waits at the end of the line twenty minutes. This is just right for Hun gate for he is able to drain the cow and catch the same car back to town. In the evenings Hungate plays golf until dark. Then he goes to the locker room, lays down his sticks, picks, up his pail and saunters off over the fields to his cow for the evening milk ing, i Meanwhile he practices law. J. C. Mohler and Bill Kercher of the Country club played a .match with Phil Eastman and Arthur Carruth, jr., of the Shawnee club on the Shawnee links for the conversational cham pionship of Topeka Wednesday. Kercher, ho says verbal exaspera tions are frowned upon at his links, was able to unload nearly two months of pent up enthusiasm during the game. The wind was blowing a gale but it created no competition for Bill. Incidentally Jake Mohler, who is no dub of a player, came in with a 99 on 18 holes a .marvelous score con sidering the strange course, the oil greens and the difficult approaches. The championship goes to the Coun try club players until a later date when the Shawnee representatives will attempt to have gathered a new and original vocabulary. The famous "Well-Under-the-Willows" on the Shawnee course is nearly full. Tired golfers these days have only a short pull on the eld oaken bucket to raise it to the glistening surface. The grass greens on the Shawnee course are still a little raw, but are being improved daily. In a few days there will be grass greens on every hole. Players have the option of us ing the grass or sand greens, but they must make the choice from the drive and not from the approach. So far 1- 9Z. Lord Charles Hope. tord Charles Hope, on of Eriff land's crack jrolfers, plans to visit the United States and Canada in the near future. He will plav the lead ing amateur polfers in both coun tries. He is shown above putting on a green in London. there is little choice between tne two in order to make a good score. The grass greens ae more accurate on the pitch approach, but the oil greens are better for sure putting. f Jake, by the way, as everyone in Kansas knows, is secretary of the state board of agriculture. While playing No. 2 Wednesday he was able, thru a wind directed hook- to make an in spection of the Shawnee club s wheat field a Shawnee asset on unused ground. "I hereby aeciare tnis iieia 10 on 100 per cent," declared Secretary Mohler. And so It will stand in the next crop report market quotations and fluctuations notwithstanding. Shawnee players, don't forget to turn in your cards! This week's rains have only crip pled golf. On the Country club course the players flock to the first tee as soon as a shower passes over. At Shawnee they prance around like rest less race horses awaiting the clear ing of the skies. Both courses are slow, making it necessary to carry every shot, but it is a part' of the game to learn all weather conditions, and the players are not complaining. A number of Shawnee club mem bers are beginning to wonder what V. F. Robey will do if he ever set tles into a steady stride. Robey swings one of the most viciotis clubs of any member on the course and when lie connects s-martly he certainly makes his ball squeal. Miss Gardiner, one of the la4y mem bers of the Shawnee club, is playins a steady game steady in performance and steady in times out. She rarely misses an opportunity to shriot a nine or an eighteen when the daylight lasts. Work has begun on the grass greens at the Shawnee course. -New cups have been made and the caretakers are rolling and cutting the grass. Many players who are having trouble with their pitches expect to set new records when the grass greens are available. The plan is to leave the sand greens for thoss who prefer to use them. A Topeka golfer who is accused of having used his wife as an alibi for quitting a game because of a shower has been doing some explaining. It seems the facts are Mrs. Phil East man is never afraid of water but her husband sometimes prefers it warmed when applied on the outside. jtis riungate believes that con sistency is a Jewel. He played four rounds in one afternoon. Three of the scores were just the same and the fourth was only one stroke off. Hun gate and F. G. Willard believe they nave Discovered one or the great se crets of the game that of keeping out oi me rougn at all costs. It costs two persons one dollar and a half to go to the Shawnee links in a taxicab. Some of the members be lieve that if they were able to own an automobile and were willing to haul passengers instead of playing they would make monev bv nutting an advertisement In the papers and agreeing to thaul passengers for 25 cents a head. The Meadow Lake -Country club of Kansas City will hold a special -tournament June 2 and 29 for professionals. The tournament is to be a tri-citv. four-man tearn event, with three pro- J iessionais ana one amateur for each team. The competition will be 72 holes medal play, and, invitations have been sent to golfers of Kansas City, St. Louis and Chicago. The San Marcos Country club at Chandler. Ariz., had a Job lot bunch of caddies in the form of Mexicans. Several of them are Villistas who es caped over the border to take up the practical pursuits of caddying after several years of adventure in Mexico. Incidentally Dr. K- Bannister, of the San Marcos club, won the southwest ern golf championship at El Paso. Texas, recently. Bob Peebles, former professional at the Country club, is now with the Idle Hour Country club at Macon. Ga. Ac cording to reports. Bob is still shoot ing as clean a game of golf as he used to do on the Topeka links. The A. B F. championship, played along the Mediterranean at Nice. France, was won by an enlisted man playing with borrowed clubs. Sergt. William Rautenbush, of Chicago, was the winner, and Lieut. James Hiibbell. of Des Moines, Iowa, runner up. The Golfers Magazine tells of the oddest golf links in the land. The club is the Midiron club, Watertown, Mass., and the course is laid out on a private lawn. There are five holes. to-wit: Architect's angle, 123 feet; Junkpile. 68 feet; the cottonfield, 3 feet; barristers bog, 34 feet; Akron, 63 feet. The course record is 33. Walks, shrubbery, a hedge and chil dren are the hazards. The cups are made of empty cans. The trophy is made of an abandoned phosphorous can, with a brass name plate, and has for a base a cigar box. long since de nuded of cigars. There are six mem bers and their clubhouse la the apart ment nouse m wnioi tney live ana belonging to which is the lawn where upon is the course. Have you noticed that spiral woolen puttees are becoming quite the thing on the links in Topeka? That is one part of the doughboy's uniform which seems to be a convenient form of golf apparel.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL SATURDAY EVFNG. JUNE 14, 1919 DOCTOR FOR STATE All Physicians May Go Under CItII Service Rules. That Is Fear Expressed by Members of Profession. LIFE IS NOT AN EASY ONE Most Doctors Work Hard To Earn What They Get. Federalization Would Be Fatal to Progress, They Say. Within the next twenty years the medical profession as a money making life work will have fallen into the discard. At least this is the Inter pretation that may be put upon cer tain advice given to Topeka young men by prominent members of the local medical and surgical fraternity. A story told by one ambltiou3 wouid-be doctor and surgeon is to the effect that he has recently had a heart-to-heart talk with one of To peka's most prominent surgeons. In this talk the young man expressed his desire to take up the study of medi cine and surgery. Promptly on the expression of this desire came the admonition of the surgeon "don't do it" and with the expression came an explanation. Work for State Soon? It appears that the medical pro fession in America today is appre hensive of the time when the govern ment will take over the profession as one of the natural adjuncts of gov ernment. This Is done today in Eng land and in Germany. All doctors are civil service employes, each one working for a stated wage. It is the opinion of Topeka doctors that such a high-handed proceeding on the part of the government of the U-nited States would do more to sUfle aggressive research work than any other stumbling block which mirrht be placed in the path. The medical profession at its best is a hard road to wealth and any com forts which a retiring surgeon and phy.-ician may enjoy are almost cer tain to be a well-earned reward for countless sleepless nights, and un numbered hardships. From the time the young graduate of a medical school hanss out his shingle until the time when he may retire from active life is but one round of night calls. Tlicy Arc Xot Heartless. Also doctors are not heartless au tomatons They feel and see and have sympathy the same as other persons. Their familiarity with death has not stifled the human feeling in them. Time and time again' they are called upon to attend their lifelong friends in a critical illness and only too often they are forced to see these friends pass into the great beyond in spite of their best efforts to save. The federalizing of the doctors, ac cording to local physicians, will be the greatest blow which can possibly be Cealt to the medical profession. TWO MORE rmsOXKRS ESCAPE. l.lgliteon Have Made Getaway From Leavenworth This eck. Leavenworth, June 14. Two more prisoners escaped from the disciplin ary barracks, the military prison at Fort Leavenworth, Friday, making eighteen that have slipped away this week. The two that got away toaay had on soldiers' clothing and they came to the city and engaged Harry Schmidt, a taxi driver, to take them to Atchison. On reaching the eight mile hoiis-" on the old Santa Fe trail thev rlugged Schmidt into uncon sciousness with a blackjack, threw him out of the car and started to go on alone. Thev got on a soft road and mired the car, when they took to the fields. The sheriff, with a possee of farmers, is trying to run them out of a strip of timber near potter.

Topeka Girls Have at Last Learned How To Keep Cool. When the Weather Is Warmest They Keep on Coats. OH YES, THERE'S A REASON One Popular Girl Forgot and "Shed" in Tea Room. Two Young Men ow Pray for Others To Forget. "Won't you remove your coat?" "No thank you. I can only stay JuBt a few moments." "Yes. but you'll be far more com- j fortable. Please do." "No, it wouldn't be worth while." The above conversation, or one sim- liar, occurs many times daily in To- peka and is caused by something which th girls of Topeka thought was a secret. But it has leaked out, some way, and it shows that the young women look after their com fort and at the same time maintain their high batting averages in the matter of clothes. Do Not Wear Waists. On the hot days and evenings, the charming mademoiselles of our fair city, attire themselves with their soring and summer suits, and invari ably wear their coats. This is because they neglect an important articles of clothing the shirt-waist. They can keep much cooler when appearing minus the waist, and no one is any the wiser, unless and thereby hangs a tale wherein blushes are in profusion. At a well known tea room one eve ning Ahis week a Washburn sorority girl and her family were dining. It was a verv warm day. "Take off your coat dear," said the girl's mother, "j-ou'11 be a lot more comfortable." "Why didn't I think of that be fore?" and absent-mindedly she be gan to remove the coat. Just then her mother shrieked. "Put that back on right away! Gra cious." Young Men Were Amused. The two young men at the next ta ble couldn't repress a smile, and fur tively tried to look the other direction. The girl's face was crimson. The mother was horrified. The father grinned 1 This has happened on several occa sions in restaurants and particularly in the theaters. But such accidents have not had the tendency to stop the prac tice. It merely makes the girls more careful. Needless to say, they general ly wear their coats buttoned. Another interesting bit of informa tion is gleaned among the gossips of college Hill, where Parisian styles are always forthcoming. The Washburn girls have found a new way to hold up their stockings. It is very simple, and quite attractive, they say. The system is unique to say the least. Just above the calf of the er lower limb, they twist the stocking and then form a little roll there. This serves the purpose of a garter. It's just too cute for anything. In these days of short skirts and rolled stock ings, and socks as well, the young wo men must literally watch their step. The reason why this is done, the girls say. is that it is a lot cooler everything. KANSAX THCGGED IX CAFE? Mnn, Believed From Emporia, Un conscious in K. c. Kansas City, Mo.. June 14. A man believed to be C. F. Childers, of Em poria, Kan., was found late Thursday unconscious in the alley at the rear of an Italian cabaret on East Third street.

LIGHTNING KILLS TWO Wathena Woman, 67, Victim Under a Wire Clothes Line. St. Joseph. Mo., June 14. Three persons were struck by lightning in the vicinity of St. Joseph, Friday. Mrs. Mary Holliday, 57. was Instantly killed In the backyard of her home at Wa thena, Kan. She was standing under wire clothesline. Louis Dressier, 40, was struck dead in a strawberry shed on a farm north of this city. From papers found on his person he is believed to have been recently discharged from an alien enemy internment camp. The sued had an iron roof. Peter Caveren, 22 a farner north of St. Joseph, was knocked senseless when a bolt struck a plow near him in the field where he was working. He will recover, it is believed. HIS NEIGHBOR FAT MAN Topeka Youth, However, Had To Borrow His Clothes In Emergency. A young Topeka chap went out to the tennis courts Friday afternoon and played a few sets of that pastime. When he returned to his home in the evening he found that all of his clothes, including shirts and collars, had been packed and sent away, be cause his family was moving the fol lowing day. It so happened that the young chap had a "date" with a belle of the town. He couldn't go calling in his tennis clothes. The bright tnougnt struck him that his next door neighbor might lend him an outfit. His next door neighbor, by the way, was about the size of Charlie Mitchell. But he loaned him a suit, shirt and collar. The suit, he artistically drap d around the slender form of the young man, and it fitted him generously to say the least. The neck of the tennis player filled about one-third of the collar. He had to roll up the cuffs of the pants several inches. Then he started out. The young woman wondered at his unusual appearance, but came to the conclusion that the rapidly changing styles had at last reached a point where comfort was paramount.

Free trade schools have been estab lished by the construction division of the United States army In all perma nent cantonments in this country, making a "university in khaki" a real ity, according to Capt. C. C. Ray, of Camp Funston, a recruiting officer for the construction division, who is in Topeka today. "The government plans to give tens of thousands of young men a free technical education thru the one- and three-year enlistment plan," Captain Ray said. "This training will enable thousands of ambitious young men to leave the army at the end of their en listment period with an earning capacity In their chosen trade of from $150 to $200 a month. There Is a big demand over the country for skilled labor. I understand the Santa Fe is now calling for experienced mechan ics. This is one of the trades taught by the construction division at Camp Funston." Many Trade Courses. Captain Ray stated that there are well-equipped plumbing, carpenter, blacksmith, paint, steamfitting, tin and stone shops at Funston where a re cruit can acquire a trade. Nor is the opportunity limited to the trades named. There are sixty-five trade schools at Funston, and a recruit may take his choice of which one he will attend. x Captain Ray was visiting tha local army recruiting station in the Shaw nee building at Sixth and Kansas avenue today.

A LETTER FROM OXE WHO 1X3 VES THE HIGH LIGHTS. Now that the commencements are over, and the town has settled down to quiet, how are we going to exist? I suppose there will be nothing to do but motor, and swim, and yawn, and occasionally get up energy for a mid summer dance. But what concerns me is, how you poor S. R.'s are going to scrape up any news for our jaded appetite. There won't be a speck of news upon which to fatten, unless you get it at Gage park, and even then maybe you'll not feel like getting up for some of the sunrise swimming parties, r They tell a story about one Topeka benedict who couldn't find, his bath ing suit anywhere, one day last sum mer, and 'accused everybody else of swiping it. When he reached home he found that he had it on under his other clothes. Another time a popular and viva cious woman went out to go swim ming, expecting to hang her clothes on a hickory limb, and not go near the water. She had a fetching, brand new suit, and naturally did not want to spoil it or do anything to cause it to shrink, especially as she realized that she was gaining in weight, and desired the suit to fit her thru its first season anyway. i But some one, prompted by a spirit of mischief, pushed her In, and her companions all laughed and refused to rescue her- from a watery grave. She flounced and floundered between yells, to the delight of the other mem bers of the party, and finally, in sheer desperation, struck out and did a right good job of swimming, tho she had never before made the effort. Thus does that instinct of self-preservation oftimes serve. But the joke of it was that she 'could have waded out without the ef fort of learning how to take strokes, had she known, for the water at that point was not above her knees. The seniors of Bethany college will present "Twelfth Night" on the college campus at 8 o'clock tonight. If the weather is inclement, the Shakespear ian drama will be held in the college gymnasium.

The following from Betty Ann's Tit-tle-Tattle in the Kansas City Inde pendent will be of interest to Topeka people, as the Devlin family referred to were former residents of this city: "On a recent Saturday afternoon I attended a tea dance in the Trianon room at the Hotel Muehlebach and had the pleasure of meeting Kansas City's most cosmopolitan family, the E. O. Moffatts. The war must have interfered considerably with the Mof fatts' mode of life or it maybe kept them home long enough to amass another fortune or two. About the cosmopolitan feature? Donald, the son, went to Paris to wed Miss Blos som Devlin of Topeka and Kansas City. Their engagement had existed for some time. A date had been agreed on for the wedding, when that time came Donald not wishing to de fer it a day, journeyed to Paris whith er Mrs. Devlin had taken the younger children a year or two previous, to place them in school. So disrupted, I understand, have the foreign schools become and such strides has the United States schools made that since the war English, French, Belgian, and Italian families of the nobility and aristocracy now have in contempla tion the sending of their children to our schools. 'A revision of the old order, truly.' THERE'S A SOLDIER IX OUR TOWX Who gave up a good position in bank to enlist when we went to war. He supposed that.he would get his old position back when he returned, par ticularly as he had every reason to know that his work had been satis factory, and more especially because his employer was prominently identi fied with all the war drives. When he returned from France he went in to see about his job, and was told that the place had been filled by someone else while he was fighting in France. His old employer was good enough to express regret that he had nothing for him, and further generously added that he was "proud or him." The boy who gave up everything to serve his country is wondering, as he looks for work, just how many varieties of patriots there are. A real treat has been promised To peka music lovers for Sunday evening. The orchestra and choir of the First Christian church will give a patriotic and sacred music evening as a Flag day program.
