BIRD EXPERTS WILL,
TALK TO STUDENTS

Henry Oldys, who is giving a free
lecture at the high school auditorium
tomorrow. Wednesday evening, is
probably the best posted man in the
country on bird music.
Many years have been given TO the
study of this, and now large part OF
the music has been written so that a
record is preserved and it is matter
of great interest TO note the diff
ferences of, the bird calls on different
occasions.
Mr.. Oldys is quite an expert at re-
producing this music, as well as hav-
ing a wide knowledge on the subject,
and this feature of his entertainment
will be very interesting.
All the news all the time-The Argus.

(2) Some people object to dancing,
but I nave never seen any harm in
respectable dancing among respecta-

object, respect their objections while
you are in their care and being sup

(3) Perhaps your parents have a
better reason which they do not tell

know, and IL is better 10 heed what

you now.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: Would you
please tell me what is good for a red
nose? ! always have a red nose. no
matter where / am, in the house or
outdoors. don't like TO go outdoors.
People all look at me. They may think
drink. Mrs. Thompson, if you know
something please tell me.
MRS. f. Z. b.
A red nose may come from tight
clothing. II your corset or collarband
or shoes are too tight make them
looser at once. Sometimes eating
highly spiced sauces will affect
the nose, and a poor digestion may
cause ii. Sometimes a skin disease,
such erysipelas. will redden tnJ nos
and sometimes a red nose shows a
tendency to heart disease.
would suggest. for outward treat
ment, that you pat witch hazel on the
nose several times a day, and dust the
nose frequently with a little good face
powder-get the very best, which is
expensive. This, however. will not re-
move the cause. Inspect yourself
thoroughly and when you have found
the trouble, the cure will be easy.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: am a girl
sixteen years old. My mother is dead.

good advice. UNHAPPY ONE.
Your married friend will not care to
support you very long. Why not try
TO get job and help support yourself?
IL may be a burden TO your brother TO
buy your clothes, etc. Also, whatever
you do, my dear. make up your mind
10 be happy. There are a great many
girls who are much more unfortunate
than you are. II you are cheerful you
will be better treated and people will
be glad 10 have you around. Also re-

We are in receipt of Vol /,
No of the FatherI; nd, a
magazine devoted to fair play
for Germany and Austria. The
publishers Calm that all of the
news is colored so that these
two countries are placed in a
bad light in the present war
and they are trying to give the
inside facts of the matter. To
us it seems that the war is sim
ply a case of jealousy among
the rulers and that they have
entered the war simply to set
tie these petty jealousies. The
men who are promoting the
war are in no danger them
selves but they send thousands
of men to their graves and

c asses paw the bills while
ROYALTY lives on, secure in
their homes and castle because
they come of so called rovaI

by this war we will miss our
guess as people are beginning
to realize that brains makes the
ruler in place of royal blood.
Infection and Insect
Bites Dangerous
Mosquitos, flies and other in

Every time they bite you, they

4 Peculiar Accident

Yesterday morning the lights
were cut in this city and the
company could not imagine the
trouble as the line between
here and Blair was all in good
shape so they sent their trou-
bic men out to Investigate.
Out near the Missouri river
they found a line down and up
on investigation they found it
had been burned off. That
aroused their curiosity and in
looking matters over more
carefully found large crane
dead beside one of their poles
and it had one leg burned off
One of the men climbed the pole
and found the missing leg
stuck tight to a short piece Of
wire hanging to the pole and
then the mystery was explain
ed. Sometime during the
! night the crane h2d struck
against the wire and grasped
one of them and then took hold
Hof the he other i'm some way

wire touched his log it was
burned to the bone and at the
/ first joint was burned clear
through but the severed leg
hung to the wire ard as that
short circuited the wire it was
also turned off. The bird
probably never knew what
struck it as this line carries
230O volts but the light people
have the leg on exhibition to
show that they are sticking
strickly to the truth.

NEGROES ADVISED
 ON TUBERCULOSIS
Dr. Cunningham and Dr. Lull, Judge Lane, pr. Eaves and Others
 Made Speeches Yesterday

tuberculosis Day. was observed yes- terday at Tuggle institute, a negro school located north of Fountain Heights and speeches were made by pr. R. M. Cunningham, city health of- hcer; Judge A O. Lane, city commits sioner; Dr. George Eaves, secretary of the Jefferson County Tuberculosis association; Dr. Cabot Lull, and others.
 A large crowd of negroes were pres ent and gave close attention to the speeches, all of which were in the na- ture of explanations of what the dis ease was, how to cure it and most of all, how to prevent it. The ratio of negro deaths to white deaths from tuberculosis Is about to 1, stated pr. Cunningham, and he told the audience why this was so, explaining the lax observation of sanitary and health laws among their race.
 The negroes were told how the same germ caused the disease in both the white and the black man, and there fore there was no reason why the ne- gro could not be just as free from the disease as the white people.
