Lincoln Highway Signs
Are to Be Renovated

Detroit, Mich, June 5.-Due to the
cooperation of the WHY'S Overland
Company, the Lincoln Highway Asso-
citation will be able to undertake this
year plan which will be of the great
est interest to all prospective trans
continental tourists.
This plan, which includes the stand
ardiZed marking of the Lincoln High
way from coast to coast, is one which
the Lincoln Highway Association has
long wished to put in effect, but the
development of the route and the nee
essary cooperation needed have just
made 1t possible for the association to
announce an early realization of this
extensive program of marking-a
marking scheme which is by far the
greatest ever undertaken in this coun-
try.
While the Lincoln Highway is now
more or less thoroughly marked from
New York to San Francisco, neverthe-
less there have been many points
where the marking has not been as
thorough as it should have been, and
also the marking has not been of a
standard character.
The Lincoln Highway Association
now plans to send a crew of four men
in two WHY'S Overland cars specially
decorated by that company for the
purpose, across the Lincoln Highway,
painting the poles in a standard and
uniform fashion, eight feet from the
ground, about six to the mile, and four
at the turns. A stencil reading right"
or left" will also be used to indicate
the direction of the turns.
While the WHY'S Overland Company
has provided the cars for this under
taking, the local communities through
which the markings will be done have
supplied the necessary funds for the
payment of the painters.

Such loose little coat as this one makes
the best possible wrap for cool summer
days. 1t is loose and ample, it can be
slipped on and off without any trouble
whatsoever, also it is a very easy garment
to make. In the picture, it is made of
blue serge and there is perhaps no more
practical or serviceable material but there
are others that are equally good. Wool
cheviots of various sorts are used and
there is new black and white check on
the shepherd order, with veIours finish
that is handsome. The fronts are loose
but over the back is arranged a belt
the ends of which are buttoned into
position. Either sailor collar or a round
collar which buttons up snugly about
the throat can be used.
For the 6 year size will be needed, AZ
yards of material SO inches wide, az
yards a. or 2as yards 50.
The May Manton pattern No. oo62
is cut in sizes for boys from 2 to years
of age. 1t will be mailed to any address
by the Fashion Department of this paper,
on receipt of ten cents.

HAYS INITIATES
 HE MAY SEEK T0GA
Suggest Possibility of His Can- didacy for Senator in Speech
 at WaldrOn.

III dli duul cps at CilS IOIINcli- ing of the Scott County Circuit Court here to day. Governor Hays strongly intimated that he will be a candidate for the Dem- ocratic nomination for United States senator in 1918.
 II do not know what my futu- re political aspirations may be, " hessaid, but one thing 1 will say: two years from now, there will be a United States senator to elect and trust you will not make up your minds too soon. ]"
 At the beginning of his addr- ess the governor said he propos- ed to give a brief account of his stewardship.
 Some of the more striking passages from the governors S dGuTeSS IOllOW.
 When 1 came in the gover- nors office I found your state three-quarters of a million dol lars in debt. When 1 go out of the governors office 1 will leave your state out of debt and on a cash basis.
 The mothers, wives, daught- CTS and men having been work ing, pleading and praying for statewide prohibition. Many people of the state have clamor- ed for this law. have given it to you. "
 II prevented from becoming a law the infamous race horse gambling bill. 1 was criticised on account of vetoing this bill. l did what 1 thought was right. It has been charged that 1 hes itated. That is true. 1 am glad 1 did. A man who cannot afford to hesitate about the grave and important affairs of life should not be entrusted to public duty. While l was criticised for the method adopted, that does not amount to anything so the re- suits were attained.
 The governors coming here was surpsise. No one knew he would be here until Judge Paul Little announced this morn ing that the governor would speak at one this afternoon.
 The court room was crowded when he appeared. He was in- troduced by Representative Jo Johnson of Fort Smith. The governor spoke for two hours. He received considerable applause, especially when he made complimentary references to local men.
 He again urged that the Uni versity of Arkansas be removed from Fayetteville to a more cen tral point and attacked the pre- sent university administration.
 He spoke against the adoption of the proposed amendment to the constitution which would permit school districts to raise a 12-mill school tax if they de- sire.
 The improvement in the states financial condition, he said, was due to his vetoing of more than $500, 900 in appropriations made by the last legislature.
 Tt has been said that by Oct ober l the state would be $500, 900 in debt" he said. T say to you that the state is out dedt with a few thousand dollars out standing warrants in the hands of the collectors, who have not their settlements and when the corporation tax IS collected we will have something like a half million dollars in cash to the credit of the general revenue fund.

Bales, an equal number of positions
are being held open by the employers
of France, who need these workers.
Only the training for these soldiers is
lacking to enable them to learn some
useful pursuit SO that they can serve
in shop and factory.
Build a bridge that will lead him
from the hospital over into a normal
life" Mrs. Baylies urges, in discussing
the manned soldier of the French re-
public. I'VE have been owing France
through a hundred years for that little
matter of first aid in our American
Revolution"
The American committee, which has
established headquarters at the Plaza
Hotel in this city, regards its task in
the light of charity to do away with
need Of charity" 1t requires from
three to six months for one of these
war dependents to pass through this
period of instruction-the length of
time necessary for his tuition depends
on the man and his trade-and the
cost of his education is only four to
five francs a day. One hundred dol
lars would meet the average of all
cases, the committee estimates.
Americans in France contributed
$4,000 Immediately upon learning of
the organization there of a similar
committee. Such trades are taught
as discriminating, carpentry, glass
work, photography, shoe-making, tail
oring, misunderstanding, watch-mak-
ing, tinware work, bookkeeping, short
hand and typewriting. Unless the null
titude of employable men who are be-
were taken in charge and their nor
NAL life artificially reconstructed, the
committee in France foresaw a new
and ever-increasing dead weight of
misery for the republic
The committee in France knew of
one soldier who, having lost an arm
while fighting on the Marne, drifted
from shop to shop in search of
chance to support himself and, turned
away because he knew no trade which
he could follow with his one arm,
shot himself. 1t is to avert such ira
gedies as these that the American COM
mittee, headed by Mrs. Baylies, is la
boring.
The manned ones who are being
taught trades under the direction of
the committee in France, divide their
profits in full, when they have reached
the stage of production, with those
pupils which are only beginning to
learn.
