no CLUB MEMBERS.

Baton Rouge, La, June q. 1918.
You doubtless have some labels
left from last year. II you have, use
them on the cans you are keeping
for home use. Do not waste them
There is q new label this year that ii
very beautiful and adapted to oul
needs: for example, it has the clut
motto printed on 1t and place fol-
the record of the weight and the date;
also a place for your name and ad-
dress.
This year we are going to put
the weight on every can offered for
sale. Not the exact weight, because
that would mean that the heaviest
cans would sell first, but the least
3 can. The No. can should contain
can not less than 80 ounces.
The putting of your name and ad-
dress on every can you sell is splen-
did advertisement for you. II your
goods are what you claim them to be
next year your customers will again
buy from you.
Let me suggest that you use the
club pin. Several can order these
pins Ut the same Tune. by uOlu6
this you will probably get better rates
hope you are thinking of using
banner for your club. 1t will be
very nice to be able to send this
banner with your club exhibit to the
State Fair.
Now Is also the time to think of
the essay you are going to write.
am going to esk each one of my
club members to write me an answer
to this letter. telling first If she is
going to order stamping outfit, and
second what she thinks about putting
her name and address and the weight
of tomatoes ON the can. Third, what
she thinks about using club pin, and |
fourth, nnything else she wants to |
tell me that she thinks will be Of |
interest.
I want my girls to feel that even |
II they do not know me personally |
am very much interested in them
and want to hear from them occa-
sionally.
Do not forget to keep the record
Of your tomato patches so that you
will have good reports.
With best wishes for success,
remain.

MARRIED HER ANYHOW.
Girl ''BellbOy's" Romance Ends When
Her Sex Ks Discovered.

San Francisco, July 16.-"It was
easier to keep straight and get work
Is boy than as q girl, so I simply
changed my petticoats for trousers
and took a job as bell hop"
This Is the reason given by Tlene
Shaw, who came here from Portland
rested while employed as bell boy un-
der the nme of Herbert Emory.
She was arrested because JOSEPH
Sturgel wanted to marry her.
Sturgel had asked atrimonial
bureau for wife. Miss SLaw's name
was given him and he wrote her sew
eral letters. Receiving no replies, he
called upon Miss Shaw, but was in
formed that there was no such per.
son as Miss Shaw
Bride Hunter, Angered,
Seeks Aid of Police.
Thoroughly angered and thinking
that he was the victim of q faker
Sturgel asked the police to cid him
Detective Frank Lord was detailed OH
the case.
Together Sturgcl and the detective
went back to the hotel. The proprie-
tor said that the elevator boy took
care of Miss Shaw's mail. The de-
tective took one look at the elevator
boy and then Miss Shaw went to
Jail.
There seemed to be no way for {
girl to get living wage, and keep
her womanhood," she explained.
Earns Living rs Boy
When Insult Comes.
have been earning my own living
for three years. When l went to an
employment agency l was offered q
hotel position at $40 ninth. out OF
which / had to pay for room and
board.
''Why, no one can live on that"
said, and the agent leered at me and
replied, Jaw, you're a good locker;
you can do business on the side and
make good money-all the other girls
do that"
II was too hurt to answer, but
made up my mind to protect myself
from further insult, so I masquerade
ed as boy.
Wearies of Boys Life
Seeks Matrimonial Agency.
''As a boy, they paid me $25 .
month and board and room. / ives
happy for time, but soon wearied
of it all, and thinking that marriage
might possibly furnish way out, ]
went to the matrimonial agency.
II got lots of letters and saw many
men that were sent to me by the
agent, but none suited, so did not
disclose my identity, or answer the
letters"
Sturgel was so thoroughly convinc-
ed that this plucky girl is the only
one in the world for him that he
married her as soon as she was re.
leased.

BAN ON MODERN DANCES.
But The Midshipmen Are Now Being
Taught One Slep" Movement to
be Permitted This Year.

Although the ban will remain
against the Tango, " Turkey Trot"
and others OF the modern and extreme
dances, the "one-step" form of dane
ing will be permitted at the hops to
be given by the midshipmen of the
Naval Academy during the fall and
winter social season.
The midshipmen are now being
given instruction in the one.step
movement, the gracefulness of which
the authorities of the institution are
much impressed. But the word ha S
gone down the line that this may not
be carried TO the extreme, and that
the order hitherto issued will remain
in full force, and any indulgence in
dancing of the wriggly sort will be
promptly nipped, as officers are under
direction to maintain a watchful eye
over the conduct of the students
during such social gatherings.
Tue first of the series of dances ar
ranged by the midshipmen's hop com
mittee will be given in the gymna-
stun on Saturday evening next.

the goal, and Friend went over for a
touchdown. Young failed on goal.
In the third quarter Donahue regis
tered his second drop kick and the
last touchdown came when Raker
received Miles pass and raced 40
yads and placed the ball behind the
goal posts. The game ended with
the ball in the middle of the field.

WILL ATTEND CONVENTION.
Annapolis Short Line To be Repre-
senled al Atlantic City.

Mr.. I. C. Cherry. general manager
and Mr.. H. Scott Arnold, gene raj
passenger and freight agent, OF the
Annapolis Short Line, left Yesterday
for Atlantic City, where they will
attend the ThiTty-second Annual Con-
vention of the American Electric
Railway Association, which meets
today and continues to the 18th.
The Association is one of the larg-
est in the world and represents cleo
trio railway companies in the United
States, Canada, Central and South
America, having track mileage Of
more than $1,000 miles. Its DELHI
erations are divided up among the
American Accountants, Engineering,
Claims and Transportation and
Traffic Associations, whose dictum
establishes the standard for street
railway practice in the various de-
partments of the industry which they
represent.
The membership in the Association
is now nearly 5000 individuals and
more than 400 companies. Much of
the work of the American Association
deals with matters concerning the
relations of the railway companies
with the public and their employees
and the consideration of questions
affecting these relations is an import
ant part of the convention program.
The fact that the extension of
both urban and interurban electric
raiwlays has very largely decreased
during the past few years, has given
the association much concern and the
difficulty of securing capital for elec.
tric raiwlsy enterprises being recog-
nized, the association will listen to
addresses by representative OF i'm
portant Boston and New York bank
ing houses on the subject of electric
railway investments.
