She was feverishly impatient until
the answer arrived and was not at all
surprised that it came under special

eyebrows quizzically and Aunt Grace

looked up with sudden questioning in
his face. Carol made no comment
only ran up to her room and locked
the door once more.
Carol, you awful little scamp, you

And Carol laughed again and wiped
her eyes.
The Reverend Mr.. Dukes devotion
to his elderly uncle in Mount Mark was
a most beautiful thing to see. Every

she slouched, her complexion was
poor, her hair always seemed wispy.
and she looked like the typical

Two weeks at the dramatic school

Then the teacher had made her

personally supervised the buying OF
her new fall outfit, selecting artistic
clothes, the proper model corset, and
making her pupil learn 10 wear potn

Alice was taught to walk upstairs

A LITTLE YELLOW DOG

Ponderous governmental machinery
stood stock still while a thirteen
year old girl stood before a group Of
algnlned generals at Washington and
tearfully pleaded for the life of
little yellow dog.
She was Esther Smiley, Of Mary
land, sister of Private Peter Smiley,
a recruit in the. United States Marine
Corps, and the dog she held In her,
arms had been Peters playmate since
youth.
Rover will surely die of grief un-
less you send him on to my brother" !"
the little girl sobbed.
And wonder of wonders. the digni-
fed generals understood the little
girls plea, and, acting instanter to
preclude the embaln1ing of Rover in
the red tape of officialdom, gave the
necessary instructions, and within an
hour the faithful playmate of Pr7
vate Peter Smiley was !. Grated up

Corps recruit depot. Port R6yat.

RAILROAD AND REVOLVING

The attempt of the four heads of
the railroad brotherhoods and of Sam
uel Gompers to deliver organized
labor body and breeches over to Will
son has stirred up spirit of revolt
among the members of the trade
unions. Arthur D. Burbank, chair
man of the legislative board of Bro
therhood of Railroad Trainmen in
illinois, declares that there is a de-
cided trend toward Hughes among
railroad men as they have the oppor-
tunity to study and discuss the So
called eight-hour law; and there is
a 1eaction> against the attempt of
the grand lodge officers to use the
members politically. GAS to the
Adamson law, none of our members
understand it, and all are more or less
suspicious of it. Our members have
not forgotten the conditions two years
ago, when train crews were laid off
by hundreds and thousands, and they
understand that the present prosper
ity is due entirely to the European
war. A recent statement issued by the
president of one of the brotherhoods
to the effect that the men who do not
support Wilson are to be put in the
class with men who would stand by
the railroads in a strike, has caused
a tremendous revulsion of feeling, and
has made thousands who were waver-
ing come out openly for Hughes Any
Union man with spirit will resent such
a slur."

OFFICERS RESERVE SCHOOL
PLANS ARE DISCUSSEl

PLANS AXE DISCUSSED
Were we unframed men to go to
the front today we would not be worth
our weight in dust" declared DR.. w.
0. Thompson, president of The Ohio
State University, in convocation last
week. "For this reason, England will
not let her soldiers go to the trenches
until they have completed years
work in camp, so that they will be of
maximum value to their country when
the time comes," he continued. Presi-
dent Thompson returned Thursday
morning from Washington, where he
attended conference of college presi-
dents and war department officials,
who discussed means of putting into
operation the sections of the National
Defense Act relating to the training
of reserve officers,
Before the outbreak of the Euro
pean War there was much talk of the
utilization of the military forces of
the land-grant colleges. The passage
of the National Defense Act, how
ever, spoiled plans already made. The
matter has been brought up again,
and this time concerns the establish
ment of a reserve officers training
school in the land-grant colleges. Such
a unit established at Ohio State would
be made up of third and fourth year
students who have completed two
years compulsory work in military
drill. All equipment will be furnished
by the Federal Government and in ad-
dition they will receive SO per month
pay. Upon the completion of the work
they will be given rank of second lieu
tenant, and six months experience in
summer camp with salary of $100
per month and sustenance, and at the
end of this period will be placed or
the reserve officers list"

DEFECTIVE TEETH

A recent investigation made by
the U. S. Public Health Service in
connection with studies of rural
school children showed that 49.3 per
cent. had defective teeth, 21.1 per
cent. had two or more missing teeth,
and only 16.9 per cent. had had dem
tai attention. Over. IA per cent. never
used tooth brush, 58.2 per cent. used
one occasionally and only 27.4 per
cent. used one daily. Defective teeth
reduce physical efficiency. Dirty,
suppurating, snaggle-toothed mouths
are responsible for. many cases of
heart disease, rheumatism, and other
chronic affections. The children are
not responsible for the neglected state
of their teeth. The ignorant and
careless parent is to blame for. this
condition. condition which hampers
mental and physical growth and puts
permanent handicap on our future
citizens. School teachers can and are
doing much in intoxicating habits of
personal cleanliness on the rural
school child but this will fail of the
highest accomplishment unless par
ents cooperate heartily and continu-
ously. Thishis a duty which we owe
our children.

sHORT.CoURsE AGS ARRIVE

With a registration to date of 224
students in the short course in agri-
culture, which opened last Tuesday at
The Ohio State University, indications
point to the probability of a record
breaking year in the threeeyear course,
in spite of the fact that, difficulty in
obtaining farm hands viii keep many
at home. The number exceeds that
of the same day last year by 80, and
is greater by seven than the total
number enrolled last year.
This course is offered for the bene-
fit of those who must be at home dur
ing the early fall and spring and aims
to give knowledge of the fundamentals
of agriculture. The only requirement
for admission is previous experience
in agricultural work.

How. Catarrh is Contracted

Mothers. are sometimes so thought
less as to neglect the colds which
their children contract. The infam-
nation of the mucus membrane, at
first acute, becomes chronic and the
child has chronic catarrh. a disease
that is seldom cured and that may
prove a life's burden: Many persons
who have this loathsome disease will
remember having had frequent colds
at the time it, was contracted. A lit
tie forethought, bottle of Chamber
lsin's Cough Remedy judiciously
used, and all this trouble might have
been avoided. Obtainable every
where.
