CASE OF BROTHERLY LOVE
New King Of Greece Once Hurled
Challenge at Crown Prince, But
Latter Declined to Accept.

A good story is told concerning the
new King Alexander Of Greece, be-
tween whom and his elder brother,
Prince George, there is not, nor ever
has been, any love lost. One day
shortly after his fathers accession to
the throne shoot was in progress on
the royal estates near Athens, and
during the luncheon hour a discussion
arose on accidents at shooting par
ties.
mo man has ever peppered me In
mistake for pheasant" remarked
Prince George. "If anyone were fool
ish enough to do so I would shoot him
dead on the spot"
Shortly afterward, when sport had
been resumed, the crown prince felt
shower Of shot rattle round his gait
cred legs, and, turning in a fury to
find whence it proceeded, saw his
brother with gun leveled In his d.
rection.
"Pve got another barrel ready"
said Prince Alexander. "Will you
shootT'

.TOMMIES" CALL 1T "WIPERS"
British Soldiers Have Given Their Own
Pronunciation to the Little
Belgian Town Of Ypres.

The little Belgian town of Ypres is
sure enough a place in history; but,
in England, at any rate, 1t will always
be specially sure of it under a name
which no cloth worker of Flanders ever
heard, and would certainly never rec
ognize. The British Tommy" who
for over two years has held up the
German forces around the famous
Ypres salient, insists on calling II
"Wipers," and the name has "taken
on" as he would say. 1t Travelled over
to England, and "Wipers" began some
how to be associated with "hot cor
ners." The present prime minister. In
the course of one of his speeches,
some months ago, alluded to the place
by this name, and "Wipers" 1t is likely
to remain, and as "Wipers" 1t Is like
ly to be discussed for many years to
come, says the Christian Science Mon
itor.
Curiously enough, 1t is not the first
entry Of Ypres into the English Ian
guage in this, or at any rate SIM
liar form; for 1t was in the looms OF
Ypres that was made, in the middle
ages, the famous "toiles d'yper," the
costly table linen, or diapers.

Testing the Eye.

Lecturing on the EFFECT on the Eye
Of Varying Degrees Of Brightness and
Contrast" before the Illuminating En-
cheering society recently, DR.. James
Kerr of the public health department
Of the ondon county council, referred
to some effects which may be surpris
ing. Having to examine long lists OF
figures in black type, he tried to IA
cilitate his task by drawing vertical
and horizontal lines in red ink, but
the different focusing of the black and
red strained his eye and gave him @
headache, which did not trouble him
when all the figures and lines were
either black or red. Doctor Kerr ques-
lions whether target is more distinct
when brilliantly illuminated disk ap-
pears on a Jet black background than
when the surroundings were dlffusely
illuminated.

PRISONERS WENT ON STRIKE
Refused to Go Back to Jail Until One
Of Their Number Was "Fired" by
Workhouse Superintendent.

Perhaps the queerest strike on rec
ord was that of workhouse prisoners
In Delaware county, Indiana, recently,
when they refused to return to Jail un-
less one Of their number received his
freedom. And it was not that they de-
sired him to be free, either, but be-
cause they wished to be freed of his
presence.
II had my gang Of prisoners way out
by Yorktown, working on a country
road that needed repairing" said
James Cole. workhouse superintendent,
according to the Indianapolis News
when l noticed, about time to load
them into the automobile and bring
them back, that the prisoners were
hanging back and talking among them
selves. Finally one Of them came TO
me with the story and his demands.
"The boys here won't 60 back to
jail with you unless you fire Danny,
there said the spokesman. They won't
ride back In the machine with him be-
cause he has vermin in his hair and
on his body. You either let him 60 or
no more jail for us. We've agreed to
make run for 1t If you don't, and
you can't catch all of u.s.
"Of course, had no right to allow
the man his freedom" Cole continued.
"but the fellow jumped up and ran
away just then and I'm bound to admit
we didn't try very hard to catch him.
Anyway, that broke the strike"

THIRD QUOTA CALL OCTOBER 20
Delayed Two Weeks So Heating Plant
Can Be Completed.

Camp Custer, Battle Creek-Michi
gan's third quota for the national
army, the 40 per cent due to be called
October 6, will not be called before
October 20. Camp Custer will be in
no shape to receive the additional IA,
900 before that date, officers declare
and 1t is possible that the call may be
still further delayed.
To receive the men, the camp must
be practically complete so that the
regiments can move to the quarters
assigned them in the original scheme
of the cantonment. The various de.
lays, especially in material and labor
have set back the work so that the
mobilization scheme can not be fol.
lowed.
The shells of the buildings might be
constructed in time but the heating
plant, which is of utmost Importance
as soon as cold weather settles in,
cannot be finished in time to warm
the buildings.

MANY HOPE TO BECOME OFFICERS
Thousands At Camp Custer Aspire to
Higher Rank.

Camp Custer, Battle Creek-Fort
Sheridan stands as a great beacon
of hope before some of the drafted
men in Camp Custer. Waco, Texas,
stands as a possibility before others.
There are thousands of drafted men
who have developed an ambition to
attain to rank as officers. They are
anxiously awaiting the conclusion of
the present term at Fort Sheridan.
There is quite a general speculation
among army men to the effect that
the next Fort Sheridan class will be
composed, not Of men from civilian
life, but Of soldiers selected from the
regulars, the national guard and the
national army.
The possibility that some of the
men now here may go to Waco ex-
lists in this: The national guard reg
iments which will train In Waco must
be raised to the new war strength.
There are two ways of doing this.
One is by combining one regiment into
two. The second is by drawing on
men from the draft army.
A portion of the draft army has
been organized as a depot brigade"
which will exist as reservoir to fill
up any lacks in other branches of the
draft army. 1t is thought quite pos
sible that the depot brigade will also
be drawn upon to bring the national
guard regiments up to the new war
strength.

Poultry Breeding to be Demonstrated.

Poultry Breeding to be Demonstrated.
The Michigan Agricultural College
will use the L. M. Woodin farm one
and one half miles east of Corunna on
the Vernon road. as a poultry demon
stration farm, and under the direction
OF Prof. G H. Burgess, will give four
demonstrations next year starting with
incubation, brooding and selection Of
stock. Later the raising of chicks and
grown pullets, and then the fattening
marketing, and selection of pullets for
winter laying. Foods and formulas for
balanced rations will be explained.
The demonstrations are for everyone
interested in poultry raising, but are
intended principally for farmers to
make better farm fiocks and make them
pay better, and not for fancy poultry
raising.
Shiawassee is the second county in
the state to have the demonstration
farm and the work is paid for by the
federal and state governments. Two
men from the department of agricul-
ture will be on duty in each state, and
will go to any part of the state to give
aid and advice Such advice may be
had now by notifying Mr.. Burgess
through the county agent or Mr..
Wo)dln.

PLEDGE WOMEN TO
CONSERVE FOODS
CAMPAIGN FOR ONE MEATLESs
AND ONE WHEATlEss DAY
TO BE STATE WIDE.
PERSONAL CANVAS TO BE MADE
County Committees to Visit Every
Home In Effort to Secure
Hearty Cooperation.

Lansing-The executive committee
conference of Food Administrator
Prescott and Government Expert s.
H. Freeman, laid tentative plans for
securing the cooperation of every wo.
man in Michigan.
Pledges will be exacted by personal
canvass in every corner Of the state in
the week of October 81. Until that
time the executive committee will
spend most of its time perfecting an
organization.
The wheatless and meatless days
will not be mentioned on the pledges
to be exacted; instead the housewives
will be asked merely to accept the sug.
gestions of Food Director Hoover in
regard to the conservation of food.
Later will come the pertinent sugges-
tions regarding the substitution of
some other food for meat and white
bread.
The selection of Tuesdays and We'd
nesdays of these two days will prob
ably stand, although word from Wash
ington indicates that their selection
is only tentative.
The work is to be done by means of
county committees.
A chairman for each county will
be chosen by Mr.. Prescott and ap-
proved by Governor Sleeper. They are
to select an executive committee for
each county. Under these will be sub
committees for each city and village
and even townships.
