GLACIER PARK VISITED BY
1000 TRAVELLERS THIS YEAR

Washington, D. c., Sept. 7. 1916
Glacier National Park this season has
broken all previous records as "See
America First" tourist attraction.
More than ten thousand travellers Wis
tied the park from June 1st to August
goth, an excess even over last year
when there was heavy travel to the
San Francisco and San Diego expo
sitions and also to an unusually large
number of conventions held in Seattle,
Portland and other points on the Pa
cific coast.
Government officials announce that
this is record for rapid popularity
in the history of national parks, when
it is taken into consideration that Gla-
cier National Park is one of the new
est of Uncle Sans group of play
grounds.

ly granted only to clergymen, ex- changed prisoners of war and the medically unfit. From today onward for thirty days, hundreds of tribunals throughout the country will consider the last application for exemption. It has been previously announced that absolute freedom from military service cannot be granted to those pleading "scrious hardships." Hence the tradesman must leave his shop, the professional man his office, the manu- facturer his plant and the husband his home despite business or domestic hardships. The conscientious object or if his objections are proved genuine to the satisfaction of the tri- bunal, must serve in a noncombatant capacity. Even the government em- pIoye must prove that his services are indispensable to the nation.

It was like a Sunday school picnic except tears and good bgcs took the place of laughter and joy. The first drafts of the cOnscript army started toward the training camps. In the big London railway stations, husbands and fathers, in- evitably loaded with more baggage than army law allows, remained on the platforms until trains were ready % go bidding goodbyes to their wives and children Heartrendmg scenes were enacted Trains steamed out and thousands of persons stepped in- to strange paths in which they wiii continue to walk until peace brings

Great Britain back to normal balance
 During the past month, millions of pieces of furniture have been packed in thousands of British homes and put into storage. The government light ened the load of the married conscript in this respect. Local authorities are empowered by parliament to store the household effects free, pay reas- enable charge for the carriage and in- surance.
 There are more empty houses for rent in England, Scotland and Wales than at any time in history. The married soldiers family, in most cases has not attempted to keep the home fires burning. Wives and children have gone back to the "Old folks or into lodgings, They will make out on the government allow ance that goes to every soldiers wife and children. In exceptional cases the local authorities are empowered by the government to offer funds-the amount to be decided by the barest needs.
 Every day for weeks the railway stations and the homes will go through what started today-unless peace puts an end to it.
