FORD'S PRACTICAL
MODE OF FIGHTING
Giving Benefit of His Immense Bus
mess Organization to the
Government

Detroit, Mich, Aug. 26.-In manu-
featuring articles for the United
States government, Henry Ford, the
Detroit manufacturer, believes he is
helping in the world fight to stamp
out militarism. He believes the war
will be shortened when Europe real
ICES that America is engaged in war
in real earnest.
Mr.. Ford is satisfied that no harm
has been done by waiting until re-
Gently for the war preparations. He
explains that American manufacture
ers now have all the benefits of
knowing of the tremendous mechan-
ical advances which the war has
brought. This will bring all their
preparations up to date.
Two hundred thousand steel air
plane cylinders are being made by
Mr.. Ford for the government; and
these will be sold to the government
at cost of production. 1t is announc-
ed that the price will be settled after
the cylinders are made. Government
representatives and Mr.. Ford will
figure the cost. The government will
then pay fair recompense without
profit to the Ford company. The price
when fixed will be extraordinarily
low
The Ford expert, it is said, has de-
veloped a method of producing a steel
cylinder at much reduced expense, and
these cylinders will be manufactured
at the rate of 1000 a day. Mr.. Ford
declared 5000 or 10000 a day will be
produced, if needed.
In discussing his work for the gov
ernment, he expressed anew his con
viction that President Wilson has al
ways been lover of peace. He said
however, that Mr.. Wilson should have
the full backing of the nation in main,
tanning the country's honor. Every
individual should do his part with.
out hatred toward crushing militar.
ism. The first nation to disarm should
be Germany.

SPECIAL RATES ON
MAGAZINES FOR SOLDIERS

Uncle Sam is going to make it
easier for you to send your old maga-
zines to his soldiers and sailors at the
front in Europe, according to an or
der issued by Postmaster General
Burleson.
Uncle Sam does not even trouble
you to wrap, address or weigh the
magazine. After reading it, resting
in your big arm chair, just stick a
one-cent stamp where it tells you on
the cover of the, magazine, no matter
how much the magazine weighs, and
hand it to any postal employee. Of
course, Uncle Sam will not lick the
stamp for you.
Magazines to be accepted for mail
ing under this order must have print
ed in the upper right hand corner of
the front cover the following:
Notice to Reader
When you finish reading this mag
azine place a one-cent stamp on this
notice, hand same to any postal en-
ployee and it will be placed in the
hands of our soldiers or sailors at the
front. No wrapping. No address.

DIXIE is DEAD

Dixie, the handsome and intelligent
bulldog given by Miss Eleanor Ire
mere to- Company A, wilf'not go to
France. Dixie's life was crushed out
by a speeding auto Sunday evening.
After supper last night, some Of
the young soldiers went out for a
walk, taking the dog along. A short
distance from the business center, a
car came along at rate of thirty
miles an hour. The dog was out in
the street, IN plain view, and could
easily have been avoided by slight
turn of the car, but the hellbent indi-
vidual at the steering wheel kept
straight ahead and drove the auto
right over the little animal.
Some of the soldiers ran to pick up
the dog and the others ran after the
car, but the auto put on even greater
speed and was soon out Of sight. Il
was an out of town car and the men
could not make out its number. They
would have wrecked the car if they
could have captured 1t.
Very sadly the boys brought the
crushed body of their four-legged
friend back to the armory. DR.. Dunn
was called in, but the little dog was
past saving.
Dixie was buried in corner of the
golf links this morning, while the
company was out at drill. The boys
had become much attached TO the lit
tie dog. He had been with them only
little more than a week, but had
come to understand that he belonged
to the company, and stayed with it
faithfully.
The man who drove the car had
better keep his identity hid from
Company A.

MARRIAGE AND MOBILIZATION
Dealt with in the Instructions Issued
by the Provost Marshal
Saturday Night
ASSOCIATED Press)

Washington, Aug. 26.-At the di-
rect suggestion of President Wilson,
Provost Marshal General Crowder
telegraphed to all governors last
night supplemental explanation of
regulations governing the status of
married men under the selective SER
vice law. No change is made, and
the purpose of the new statement is
to clear misunderstanding which
have arisen in what General Crowder
describes as a "few instances"
In a letter to Secretary of War
Baker President Wilson states his
opinion that the regulations directing
local boards "to establish the fact of
dependents in addition to the fact of
marriage ought not to be abrogated." !"
This leaves the regulations as they
are and the supplementary statement
is designed merely to make the ap-
plication of rules conform among all
boards.
While the statement regarding
married men was in preparation or
ders were issued changing entirely
the mobilization arrangements pre-
viously made. Congestion of rail
traffic and the necessity of making
better provision for the reception of
the men at the cantonments dictated
the change.
Under the new orders, per cent
of the white men, preferably those
with military experience. from each
local area, will be started to the
camps September 5 instead of 80 per
cent. They will go in five daily de-
tachments of equal size and form
skeleton company organizations.
The next 40 per cent. will go for
ward September 10 when the second
80 per cent. originally was scheduled
to go; second 40 per cent. will &C
forward October 3 instead of the
third 80 per cent, and the remaining
Is per cent. will be called up as soor
thereafter as practicable.
Local boards are directed to disre
gard order of liability numbers tt
some extent in selecting the first :
per cent, as men of experience, sucf
as cooks and former soldiers are de
sired Warning is given, however
against getting into this levy by rea
son of his experience any man wht
might not otherwise have been in
cluded in the first increment of tn,

SOUTHERN TIRES

By testing out great number of
tires in actual road service the South

discovered that a shorte r cure with
less heat units will build a tire almost
proof against the summer heat of

to in cooler climates haven't the ad-

ANOTHER BALL GAME
THURSDAY AFTERNOON

Another ball game, between the
soldiers and the town boys, is planned
for next Thursday afternoon.
The town boys are good players
and are planning to retake the laurels
they lost in last Thursdays game.
The soldiers, on the other hand, have
no idea of losing any battle, on the
diamond or elsewhere, so it is likely
the coming game will be a stiff one.
Make your plans to go to. see the
game. 1t will be a pleasant and pat
riotic way of contributing quarter
