TO LIGHT UP TONIGHT
State House Dome Will Be Flooded for
Free Fair Visitors.

Topeka's new flood lighting system
illuminating the state house dome
will be officially inaugurated to-
night Contractors today made pos
tive assurances that the new lighting
system would welcome free state fair
visitors to Topeka shortly after dark.
All of the thirty-two 500 watt re-
Electors have been installed, the cable
is properly connected and everything
is ready to turn the switch and flood
the state house dome with noon day.
light. Eight of the big reflectors
have been planted on the roof of the
four wings of the capitol building.
Juice" for the new lighting system
will be provided by the city without
expense to the state. The state paid
for installing the system. Under an
appropriation by the last legislature,
$4,000 was appropriated for remod-
cling the east wing of the capitol and
flood lighting the state house dome.
Work of installing the lighting sys
tenn was held up several weeks when
contractors failed to induce manufac-
turers to rush state cable orders ahead
of war orders.
The flood lights at the state house
will be an innovation in Topeka light
ing methods. While several of the
large buildings have used spot lights
in producing effects, the new method
at the state house is beyond any light
ing program attempted here. The
system at the state house corresponds
with the flood lighting method of il

ing Officers of Army.

Cooks and bakers are the only en-
listments now acceptable by the local
recruiting station for the quartermas-
ter's corps of the regular army. ac-
eording to instructions received this
morning from Kansas City.
Cooks and bakers are needed badly
for immediate service, according to
the message, and the demand will still
be more urgent September Is, when
the second increment of the first draft
ed army is ordered to camp. The
shortage of cooks and bakers, Lieut.
Eli Dorsy declares is more pressing
than it has ever been. The men in
camp will not go hungry but cooked
food may be rather scarce unless hun
dredS of volunteer bakers and cooks
are enlisted in the next few weeks.
Three weeks ago, the recruiting Of
flee, at 425 Kansas avenue, was advis-
ed to take enlistments of cooks and
bakers, even tho the applicants had
had little or no experience. Now the
call has come for experts in both
branches of work.
A few enlistments may be made of
stenographers, typists and chauffeurs,
in cases where the applicant is espe-
cially well qualified for the work.
