Writes for the Morning News While

on the Big Fair.

Poplar Bluffs, Mo-, April 26, 1917.
Editor Morning News: Yes, by ail
means go to the st. Louis exposition,

earliest. 1t will not lie ready befJrt

st. Louis for the wJrders she has rcr-
formed, nevertheless, the simple truth
is, the fair is not yet ready and cannot
be for month at least
Four days before the date set for the
formal opening l spent six hours In
almost constant walking about the
grounds, going into as many Of the
buildings as could in that time, and
found not single one anything near
ready. Nearly all of the large build
ings are finished though several small
er one are In process of construction.
Many of the walks are not made and
In case of rain 1t is almost impossible
to get around at all know this from
experience. would judge that not
more than one one-thousandth of the
exhibits are in place. In some build
ings absolutely none. therefore ad-
wise people not to go for a month yet.
Twenty-three thousand people are
now at work on the grounds, but so ex-
tensive is the place that there seems
to be not many in any one place. It
is said that $50,O00,000 have already
been spent on 1t, against $16,00O,O00, l
believe, on the Chicago fair. Carpen-
ters, plasterers, plumbers and other
skilled workmen get from 81 cents TO
81 an hour, unskilled laborers get 25
cents an hour. For work over hours
80 per cent more is paid and for Sun
day work they receive double pay.
This last fact suggested a question
to my mind. Many merchants and
Others who serve the public, claim that
while they would like to close their
places of business on ounday, their
customers demand that they keep
open. wonder what would be the ef-
feet II merchants. photographers, dem
lists, ice cream venders and others en-
gagged in works of neither necessity nor
mercy would join the carpenters, brick
layers and plasterers and say: 'If you
want our services on Sunday you must
pay us double?" Would not the de-
mand for their services ON that day
cease, or be greatly diminished?

SUICIDE CLUB
Among High School Boys
at Denver.

Denver, Col, May 9.-The suicide OF
two youths Within six days has
brought to public attention the exist
ance of a suicide club among the
members of the senior class of the high
school at Wheat Ridge, suburb of
this city.
A week ago Walter Dale, one of the
leaders of the senior class and very
popular among the students drank car
bolic acid and died. He was only Is
years of age and it was stated that the
failure of a female student to accept
his attentions had caused him to take
his own life. Last night William CAL
kins, aged 19, and a member Of the
same school fraternity that Dale be-
longed to was found dead in his room.
No reason was known for the act and
the authorities started an investiga-
tion, which, while not as yet concluded,
ems to indicate hat several of the
leaders in the senior class have form
cd suicide club and that in putting
an end to their lives Dale and Calkins
had lived up to the terms of an agree
ment made when they organized the
club.

Fleet Fleeing from the

London, May 1O-The Seoul cores

cables that there is good reason for the
belief that a portion of the Russian

shut out of the Vladivostok harbor
and is now cruising in the sea of Japan
attempting to escape from a pursuing
Japanese squadron.
This report is generally credited
here and in view of the report cabled
from st. Petersburg that the rumor
was current there that the cruiser
Rutik had been sunk, 1t is possible
that another japanese sea success has
been scored.
At the japanese legation Viscount

this year is expected TO be far I'm exc
cess OF any ever known I'm America.
The predictions for the great crops
of this year are based principally upon
the GOODNESS OF the summer and upon
the size Of the samples already I'm the

large, fat and healthy as most OF the
oysters sent in the height Of the season

have paid more than ordinary attention
TO their beds this summer. and are now
iuhilant when at the close proximity
TO the opening OF the season the crop
shows every evidence of not only being
very plentiful but the hivalvcs are OF
the Fat and luscious variety.
| From the Chesapeake Bay section the
