DRAF 7 MEASURE
ADOPTED

The great American army of
1000 900 men is to be raised by
draft" or CONSUMPTION, not by
the volunteer method.
Congress settled the matter
late last Saturday night. after
debating through the week.
Though most of the speeches
have been in favor of calling for
volunteers, the vote in both
HOUSES was overwhelming for
the draft bill. The inal vote in
the House was 3O7 to a; in the
Senate, 81 to s.
Before the final passage of the
measure the question of consCrip
ton or volunteers came to q
square test in each House on
amendments The House voted
against the volunteer plan, 313
to 100, and the Senate, 60 to is.
NOTHING COULD BLOCK
The DRAFT
Speaker Clark left the chair
and came down oh the floor to
plead for the volunteer system
His speech which hal been ad-
vertised in advanc. as a"greater
effort proved dissapointingly
weak and problbiy strengthened
the other SHE. The Speaker
had predicted an | IN ny thought

DIFFERENCE ABOUT AGE

POSTPONE THE RED
CROSS THEATRICAL
DAY IN co j N TRY

Red Cross Theatrical Day, which
was to have been observed through
out the country on October 26th. has
been postponed until December 7th.
This postponement was made by
Henry P. Dawson, chairman of the
Red Cross War Council and A. L.
Erlanger, whom Mr.. Dawson has ap-
pointed National Chairman for
Theatre Day, in order not to divert
attention from the Liberty Loan
Campaign.
Red Cross Theatrical Day was
placed far ahead on the calendar, so
might not interfere in the least with
the bond sale.
The entire receipts of many thea
tiers throughout the country, as well
as the salaries of many patriotic
actors for that day, will be contri-
buted to the Red Cross War Relief
Fund. A number of theatres are
planning special performances for the
occasion.
The theatrical profession has al
ways been in sympathy with any
work along broad humanitarian lines
and the Red Cross has proflted by
the generosity of actors on many oc-
casions. At a pageant given re-
Gently in New York, nearly one hun
dred "headliners" participated, and
about $4,000 was raised for the Red
Cross fund.
Under Mr.. changers direction,
over $50 of the most prominent
theatrical managers throughout the
country have already volunteered to
give their entire receipts to the Red
Cross on that day, and to cooperate
with Mr.. Erlanger in extending the
general observance of the day
throughout the country.
Leading New York theatrical man
ayers have been organized into a
committee, including Marc klaw,
David Belasco, Lee Shubert, George
NJ Cohen. Sam H. Harris, Henry w.
Savage, Oliver Morosco, Charles Dill

Gest, Selwyn and Co., John D. Will
liams, and Gam Scribner.

country are cooperating with local
Red Cross authorities in making the
undertaking a nation wide success.

following have been enlisted for duty

More men are needed at once, and
there is an unusual opportunity for
white men who have had experience
with negroes to become non-com-
missiond officers in command of ne
gro companies. Several battalions
are open for this enlistment, and a
large number of men are needed at
once.
Every other branch of the service
is open for enlistment including the
aviation section.

Why Colds are dangerous.

1t is not only the serious diseases
that so often start with a cold that
makes a cold the most dangerous of
the minor ailments, but the fact that
when a child has a cold he is much
more likely to contract germ diseases
such as scarlet fever and diphtheria.
For this reason every cold should be
gotten rid of as quickly as possible.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has
gained wide reputation for its quick
cures of bad colds. You will look a
long time before you find better
