WOMEN CLERKS EMPLOYED
 IN WAR OFFICES
British Girls Now Fill Many Places Left Vacant by
 Soldiers.

London, Aug. 25.-There are II, 900 women clerks ana stenographers now employed in the British Government offices in Whitehall. fact which gives some idea of the way women have filled the gaps left by men who have joined the army. And still the cry is heard for more women which leads to the belief that the demand has outstripped the supply.
 Even the government departments are finding difficulty in securing the clerical assistance they require. At one time Whitehall officials could pick and choose their clerks, and the majority of those engaged were of an adaptable age-from 20 to 30-but an intelligent girl of IT without experi- ,nce can now find a place, and mid lle-aged women need no longer feel hat they are not wanted.
 To meet extensions oz the activities of such busy places as the war office and the ministry of munitions, 1t Is estimated that some 200 women clerks can be absorbed every week into the official machinery.
 The pay is not high. though it is more than what was regarded as a satisfactory starting salary for youlH girls before the war. It is, Of course, far below the salary paid, for similar work in the United States.
 For ordinary routine work or type writing the pay is me pound ,($5) week, with six pence (12 cents) an hour for over time.> For ordinary clerical work the pay is 25 shillings ($6.25) a week, with an over time rate of seven pence. Competent stem ographers start at 26 shillings a week, which may be raised to thirty after period of satisfactory service, and the over time rate is nine pence an hour. The normal hours of work vary from AZ to AS a week in different departments.
 The Civil Service Commissioners are chiefly engaged in the task of supply ing the staffs required for temporary in public departments. The ministry of munitions and the post office departments have to a great extent made their own appoint ments but in the last six. months the have found nearly G. | 900 women for other government de- partments. :.

MIR. ALLEN OF ALABAMA

Frank Allen, the southpaw twirler who was a star with the Pittsburgh Rebels last year and who was bought by the Boston Braves when the Gill more circuit exploded, will be twen- ty-seven tomorrow. Allen halls from Alabama, and he spends the winters on his farm in that state. Frank de- ve1oped into quite a classy pitcher while student at Southwestern Pres byterian University in Tennessee, and he also twirled for independent clubs in Anniston and Eelma, Ala, before he was given an opportunity to show what he could do in the Southern league. His work with Mobile in 1911 earned him a chance to display his wares in the majors, add he was bought by Brooklyn. He stuck with the Dodgers until the latter part of the 1914 season, when he leaped to the Pittsburgh Feds. "RebeP' Oakes diagnosed his case as wildness that could be cured by frequent work. and the recipe was efficacious, for Allen won twenty-three games to thirteen lost last season, and was the main stay of the Rebel slab staff.

GERMAN IMPERIAL GUARD.

s The German Imperial Guard, whose
 picked soldiers have played so import
 ant a part in the recent struggles on
 the western front, dates as a military
 organization from the latter part of
 the seventeenth century. It was or
 ganized as company of archers, un-
 der the name of the Trabant Guard,
 by Frederick l., the first of the
 Hohenzollerns to hold the title of King
 of Prussia. AS Frederick formed it,
 the body was spectacular palace
 guard, excellent for show but of little
 practical use. King Frederick Will
 jam I. reorganized the guard and
 made 1t an effective fighting force.
 Frederick William. like the present
 Kaiser, was passionately devoted to
 military matters, and he lavished his
 greatest regard on the Guard, making it one of the crack commands of the
 continent. Every man was giant in
 stature, for the first qualification for admission was height of at least six feet, It was a cosmopolitan assem- blaze, for Frederick William ransack-
 ed Europe to get enough giants to sat isfy him. The qualifications as to height remained in force until Fred erick the Great ascended the throne. The greatest of the Hohenzollerns didn't consider stature of much im-
 portance, and asked only that his men could fight Frederick added the first cavalry regiments to the Guard. When Napoleon organized his famous Imperial Guard, in which all arms of the service were represented, the Prussian monarch followed his ex- ample, and ever since this system has been adhered to. A century ago the Guard had the strength of only a weak division, but by 1860 it has grown into an army. and it is now em- ployed as a unit the same as any other army corps. Its strength is kept up by the assignment of selected young men of each annual draft.
