Noon on "White Paper"

Tulsa, Okla, March 19.-(Special)
Trains of Pullmans with all perths
taken were this morning pulled into
this enterprising city of sixty thousand
decorated and prepared for the warm
welcome given to the district conven-
ton delegates of the Rotary Clubs of
Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma.
Twenty-Five Rotarians from Topeka
were uniformed with green caps, green
neckties, green gloves and green spats.
They attracted much attention Their
yell brought instant applause in the
hotel corridors, on the streets and at
today's meeting" ITO, TO, Pc, Pc,
KA, KAW, Topeka, Topeka, Topeka"
brought enthusiasm and cheers
The address of welcome by Repre-
sentative Glenn Condor, on the staff
of the Tulsa World till chosen to the
Legislature, was unique, inspiring, and
out of the ordinary. the response by
Robert Stone, governor of the district
and presiding, brought the Topekan
an ovation from the crowded opera
house.
Stones Tribute To Flag.
His recitation of a tribute to the
American flog set the audience on its
feet, cheering and waving the red,
white and blue.
A recess was taken at noon today,
the Topekans being guests of the Ro-
tary club at the ketchum hotel. At
this luncheon Frank P. MacLennan of
Topeka was asked to respond to a
Toast on White Paper" He said in
part:
Toast is no longer served on white
paper at the beautiful cafe of your
magnificent Hotel Tulsa, or at other
hotels or cafes. White paper comes
too high. The little scalloped white
paper doilies are lacking The cost is
prohibitive and the greatest of these
sufferers are the newspapers, whose
publishers go in debt or cant cut out
the bone dry bread and have gone to
corn bread and Cruel with spuds, cab
bage and beans for luxurious desserts.
The federal trade commission in
its report issued last week to the gov
eminent shows no real shortage of
white paper, necessary to publishers
but shows greed of certain paper mills
has put profit away from publishers,
who are merely holding their organi-
zation together hoping for better
times promised thru some paper mills
who have not with greed and grasp
held up publishers who were tempo
rarily at their mercy"
Addresses by Topekans.
Big entertainments are planned for
tonight. Tomorrow, President Voiland
of Topeka speaks and tomorrow night
the convention closes with banquet
at which International President
klumpy and Gov. Robert Stone de-
liver the principal addresses.
The Topeka Rotarians were hand
somely entertained at Independence

PERFECT HEALTH
HOW GAINED?
(By DIR. L. w. Bowers.)

The late S. Weir Mitchell, NJ. D., in
his book entitled Wear and Tear"
has we'll said. ITO insure perfect
health, every tissue. bone, nerve, ten
don or muscle should take from the
blood certain materials and return to
it certain others. This process in
perfect health is a system of mutual
assurance, and is probably essential to
a condition of entire vigor of both
mind and body"
Man in a millionaire many times
over in the possession of blood cells.
Woman is not quite so rich, for scien-
lists have proved that the normal
humber of red blood cells in adult
men is five million: in women four
and one-half million to the square
millimeter.
The normal cell is not absolutely
round in health but in disease be-
comes extremely irregular in shape.
Every one can be in perfect health and
possess the millions of rich red blood
corpuscles if he only knows how to
go about it. DIR. Pierce of the Surgi-
cal Institute, Buffalo, n. Y. advises
every man and woman to purify the
blood by observing natures laws In
the first place, If your digestion is
faulty, and the food you eat is not
properly dSSlmllated and taken up by
the blood, you need a tonic and diges-
tive corrector. something that will in
crease the red blood corpuscles; he
believes in going about this in natures
own way. Years ago. in his active
practice, DR.. Pierce found that an
Alternative extract of certain herbs and
roots put up without alcohol. or in
tablet form, would put the liver, lungs
and heart into more complete action
This medicine he called DIR. Pferce's
Golden Medical Discovery. BY pro
noting assimilation it nourishes the
blood, and instead of the ill-shaped
corpuscles, the persons blood takes on
a rich red color and the corpuscles
are more nearly round.-Advertise

STUDENTS OFFER Alb

To Back Her Ball Team.

Washburn students held mass meet
ing of this noon after their regular
chapel exercises for the purpose of
discussing the baseball question. The
athletic board of control recently
stated that the funds of the depart
ment were so low that Washburn
could not have ball team this year
The fellows offered all the help-fi-
nanclal and otherwise-that was in
the school. A system of student en-
terprises was advanced but Coach
Kennedy thinks that such a scheme is
to indefinite and too general for an
athletic board to sanction
The schedules for the season are
now being made and if definite ac-
ton is not taken soon, it will be too
late for Washburn to enter in the
baseball contests of this season Last
week the men of the school petitioned
the board for a team and an allow
ance for the expense that were to be
incurred but the board turned the
proposition down.

Two Cars of Beer Stolen in the
"Beerless Princess"
Every Drop Taken While Cars
Were on Switch Siding.
BREWSTER IS ON THE TRAIL
viii Run Down Biggest Booze
Theft State Ever Had.
Thirsty Provide Themselves
Against Long, Hot Summer.

There is an oasis on the Kansas
desert. Wichita is the cool, damp
spot Someone stole two cars of beer
there last week.
News of the big wholesale theft of
liquor reached the office of s NJ.
Brewster, attorney general. today ana
it is probable an investigation will be
made, altho there may be much doubt
as to the actual crime committed thru
the theft of contraband goods. The
two carS-both loaded with beer fresh
from a big eastern brewery-was
taken from the yards of the Missouri
Pacific railroad, according to reports
received in Topeka
Suffering under the pangS and pen
altieS of the bone dry law, thirsty
men in the windy Kansas town re-
fused to permit beer in carload lots
to stay on the railroad sidings. Some
where in Wichita the two cars of beer
were stored away for use during the
hot Sultry evenings next summer. 1t
is probable that theft is the biggest
of the kind in this state. According
to the informa ton received by the at
torney generals office thru a repre-
sentative of the railroad, the two cars
were broken into while standing on
sidings in the Missouri Pacific yards.
Was Billed Thru.
The big shipment of liquors had not
been billed to Kansas. Such shipments
would have been in absolute violation
of the state laws. The liquor-stored
in the private freight cars of the
brewery and with bright letters and
glazing announcements of the con-
tents-was on its way to another
western state.
In the congestion of freight traffic,
the two cars of beer had been set on
the sidings in the Wichita yards
When the freight crews sought to
move the shipment, they found that
the cars had been opened and the
beer taken. An investigation of the
theft is being conducted by the rail-
road company. No formal complaint
has been received in Topeka. Nor
does Attorney General Brewster know
whether the railroad company has fill
ed complaint with Sedgwick county
officials
