AMERICAN RELIEF
 AIDS JERUSALEM
Fully 100000 Dependant on Help
 From This Country

Correspondence of The Associated Press.)
 Alexandria Egypt, March 16.-Ac- cording to reports received here, 400,- 900 persons in Jerusalem are now re- ceiving daily rations from the Amer, ican Relief Fund.
 A woman engaged in relief work there writes:
 Food Costs Quadruplc.
 "Everything costs four times as much as before, so you can imagine what a state the people are in. Our poor children look like skeletons. Bread is very dear and the pieces are very small. All the fathers have been taken away for soldiers and the mothers are miserable and weak.'
 Expect Invasion.
 An English woman who has ar rived here from Palestine by way of Cyprus states that the Turks fully ex- pect that the Allies will invade the country and are devoting much energy to preparations to repel them. They have constructed numerous military roads. They have fortified the Mount of Olives and believe that they have made it impregnable.
 Oranges Rot on Trees.
 Meanwhile she says, the economic situation is deplorabIc. As it is i'm possible to export the oranges they have been allowed to rot on the trees
 Public executions are frequent At Jaffa, Haly Hamis, the chief boatman of a tourist agency and the Kavas (military courier) of the American consulate, well known to all tourists in Palestine, has been hanged on a charge of espionage. Emil knesevich, a son of the British consular agent at Jaffa, was saved from a similar fate only by the intervention of Dr. Glaze brook, the American consul at Jeru- salem. He was accused of havint- received letters from his father, refugee in Egypt.

Georgia Peach Shows Swellcd Headed Player How He Plays the
 Game.

Houston, Texas. April 3.-As Tyrus Cobb outshone Benny kauff yesterday, so did the Detroit Tigers eclipse the Giants before a crowd of 1000 Texas fans. The American leaguers won no uncertain victory in the deciding game of the series. They made fifteen hits for a total of twenty-three bases
 against New Yorks six for total of
 nine bases. The Tigers also fielded without an error. The final score was to ?.
 The Giants never had chance. as neither Benton nor Tesreau could fool the Detroit sluggers. Their ancient
 jinX, Harry Coveleskie, set them down with three hits and one run in the first five innings and when he left the game the count was to 1 in De- troit's favor.
 Cobb and Kauff had a, good race for individual honors up to the seventh inning, when Cobb got his hit, line drive to left centre for two bases Tyrus gave the crowd it's moneys
 worth. He virtually stole one run and four of his five catches in center field ! were difficult chances.
 kauff, on the other hand, failed to get under two long hits, but he hardly had a chance to show his ability as a 1 fielder. R. H. F. New York ..... 01OO01OOO-2 4

in spite of the fact that huge orders are

Two Fair. Are Denied Aid.

F. S. Shaw, auditor of state, yester-
day officially ruled that Chickasaw and
Lyon County Fair associations can not
draw 81, 300 state aid claimed by them
for the 1915 fairs, owing to the fact
that gambling was permitted at the ex-
position.
The state law says the county fairs
may draw state aid, providing no gamb-
ling was permitted. At the two fairs
in question. concessionaries sold stick
of chewing gum and lead pencils for
Is cents, and threw in a chance on a
large article. At trial before the ex-
ecutive board of the state fair associa-
ton, that board ruled that the arrange.
ment in question was not gambling and
that the fairs should draw state aid.
The auditor of state was not satisfied
with the ruling, and he asked the at
torney general to render a decision on
the point.
Attorney General ..Cosson yesterday
held that the chewing gum-lead pencil
dea' was gambling. On the strength of
this, the auditor will not issue the war
rants, he says.

The Road to Hell.

In 1923 the school board of Lancas-
ter, Ohio, refused to permit the school
house to be used for the discussion of
the question as to whether railroads
were practical or not, and the matter
was recently called to mind, says Rail
way Engineering, by an old document
that reads in parts as follows:
''You are welcome to use the school
house to debate all proper questions in,
but such things as railroads and tele-
graphs are impossibilities and rank in
fidelity. There is nothing in the word
of God about them. If God has de-
signed that his intelligent creatures
should trvel at the frightful speed of
fifteen miles an hour, by steam, he
would have clearly foretold through his
holy prophets. 1t is device of Satan
to lead immortal souls down to hell. -

Rural Route Changes.
To Wallaces' Farmer !:

In the Farmer of December 3rd, l
read your editorial on changes in rural
routes. The criticism is quite common
over the state at this time, and have
tried to study the situation locally in
order to ascertain the motive. Here in
this county, where no changes has been
made or suggested, two papers in the
county seat have criticised the depart
ment, and say it is a great mistake,
and an injustice to the farmers. If the
plan be generally adopted, some carriers
will lose their places in the service, and
the fear of such consequence makes
them oppose the change.
If the department, under the new
plan, can serve more patrons, deliver
their mail earlier, and at considerable
saving, why should we oppose a wider
and better service, when money can be
saved by establishing it? 1t seems to
me the opposition is confined mostly to
the carriers who fear they may lose
their job, the small enemies of the
administration who are always on the
lookout for some adverse criticism, and
the very few on route who may be
adversely affected by such a change.
The postmaster at Estherville reports
that the motor vehicle routes have been
in operation there since September LIST.
They have three routes instead of the
six which they had before. The three
carriers cover practically fifty-three
miles each, and the time saved by
using the motor vehicles enables them
to carry mail from two trains which
they did not get before until the day
after. Under the old system, it cost
the department $1,000 to deliver the
mail to the rural patrons out of Esther
vile. Now it costs S., 400, saving of
81, 800 at this one Office. The routes
were established September LIST. With
all the rain during the month of Sep
TENDER, one of the carriers has not
missed single trip with his auto, and
has not paid out one cent for substitute
hire. One of the carriers has paid out
probably $50 for substitute hire. The
result is that the rural patrons are get
ting better service than before, and
many of them are getting their mail
several hours earlier.
l hope that farmers in districts that
are affected by this change in the routes
will simply study the results before
criticising.

Cedar RAPIDS Calmar Branch.

The Milwaukee has at last given the
people over on the Calmar branch an
other passenger train between Ana
mosa and Calmar. At present it is a
real train, with locomotive and coaches,
but later it will be a "Bumble Bee
Flyer" The train goes through Fay
cite, north, at 9:15 in the evening, and
south at 6:39 in the morning. This will
be quite an addition to the service-if
the Milwaukee don't yank it off some
evening, claiming that it don't pay,
like they did with our Turkey River
extra train a few years ago. and we
haven't had any second train since

Some of the peace advocates claim
that if any of the people on the ark
had been making money out of the
food, they would have ridiculed Noah
for sending out the dove. They would.
There is also another feature about the
matter that some people overlook and
that is the fact that Noah had to first
prepare an ark in which himself and
family were to be saved, and Noah did
according to the word of the Lord.
Without preparedness Noah and his
family would have psrished with the
rest.-NcGregor Times,

The year 1916 will have fifty-three
Sundays. The year just closed had
fifty-three Fridays, which some people
might consider . bad omen were it not
for the fact that 1915 is already .
thing of the past. The year 1916 has
only the usual number of Fridays but
will have fifty-three Saturdays and
Sundays. Owing to the fact that it is
leap year, there will be two legal holi'
days as on last year for Christmas and
the New Year. joined onto Sunday,
only these holidays come on Monday.
Easter will come on April %, which
lacks only two days of being :the latest
on which Easter can fall. 1t is very
rare indeed that Easter comes as late
as it does in 1916. 1t is also leap year.

Outsrowinx war Orders. -


The November receipts of the fifty
largest post offices through which one
half the:postal revenue comes were $l3.-
349. $50, IN increase of 13.43 per cent.
q compared with November, 1918. As
postal receipts very accurately reflect
business conditions this country growth
in prosperity is made evident
Moreover it 10 . prosperity which ID
outgrowing war orders, or, at least,
the munitions sort of them. Our
exports of:domestic merchandise of all
kinds in September are officially
reported at s295, 645, 296. For October,
according tos a wired summary, they
were 1894, 63s, 57s. Only about 10 per
cent. of this was munitions, increased
trade due to European demand for
gun-stuffs.
Railroad trunk line presidents and
traffic managers, in conference at
New York Irecently, agreed that it is
not munitions" that is congesting the
terminals and the side tracks for 300
miles back from tidewater, but all sorts
of merchandise bound not only for
warning Europe but for all parts of the
world where no fighting is in progress.
Of course, considerable part of this
business results from the practically
complete retirement of Germany from
export trade, and the partial retirement
of England, France and Italy. Never
theless it is largely supply of demand
not directly created by war but equally
existing in time of peace.
The fact is that American business
has largely outgrown war orders"
They came in very handy for time,
but we are reaching position where
demand for gunstuffs is becoming rela-
lively unimportant. How much of this
trade we shall be able to retain when
our European competitors return to
the wayssof peace depends, of course,
on the foresight and energy with which
we pursue our present opportunity.

A Mi,,pept Million.

Minneapolis Journal: Oh, the pity
of fool advice to well-meaning man
with foolish idea: Nine Rosika Sch
winner and others told Henry Ford
that he and his party would be received
with open arms in every neutral CAPT
tai Of Europe and that he was sure to
''get the boys out of the trenches by
Christmas. The peace joyriders be-
gan to scrap with one another almost
before the Oscar II was outside Sandy
Hook, and the enterprise has miserably
failed.
Now the news comes over the ocean
that the bill Ford will have to pay may
amount to over million dollars. He
will be lucky, when he is all through
paying, if he gets out of the mess fer
that. Such is the cost of foolishly fol-
lowing fool advice.
Winter is on along all the war fronts.
Thousands of victims of the war in all
the countries affected need fuel and
food and clothing. And only day or
two ago we heard, for the first time,
that they were in dire need of hospital
supplies in Germany. Thousands of
wounded soldiers, who will never be
able to fight again because an arm or
leg or both have been shot away,
need to be helped to a new start in
life.
Henry Ford's million dollars, or more,
for peace would have brought many
millions of comfort and joy to those
who were wounded in the fighting, to
their families at home and to those
who are lying on beds of pain from
Flanders to the Black Sea and from
the frozen Alps to the frozen Baltic.
A million dollars wasted, when it might
have been turned into as many angels
of mercy!
Everybody but Henry Ford and his
companions on that free-for-all ship
know that the enterprise had failed be-
fore the ship sailed. The million dol
lars spent on fool advice might have
kindled hope in so many stricken souls
and left there benediction.
