WASHINGTON. D. c., Oct. 1.-THE
West Virginia quota of the national
army to the number of 1000 now at
Camp Lee, Petersburg, Va, are to be
transferred to Camp Gordan, Atlanta,
Ga, as soon as accommodations at the
last named camp are ready.
This is one OF number Of similar
orders issued by the Secretary of War
transferring men In camps to fill up
national guard divisions.
The order affecting the West Vir.
ginians reads:

men of the Yes Virginia quota to the

General, Camp Gordan that accommo-

Operators Of West Virginia are
very much disturbed over the present

Fairmont, w. Va, at the Raleigh. THE
price fixed by the administration is
not commensurate with the advance in
prices of material, ard the increase in
wages. and therefore large number
OF small operators will be seriously
hurt il not entirely put out of business.
The cost Of production to the small
concerns is in manly instances beyond
the 81 figure fixe1 by the administra-
ton. This condition has caused nun.

litory. II the price were fixed around
$3.50 or S2.75, West Virginia produc-
ton would soon be beyond normal.
Our state is one of the leaders in the
production of bituminous coal.
THE government officials in charge
of the investigation into the present
coal situation would be performing a
duty not only to themselves, but to
the public, and the small operators as
we'll, If they would extend to all opera
tors in our region fair deal, and al

advance in labor and material which
they have been compelled to meet"

ARIZONA CLUB NOTES
Official Organ State Federation of Womsns Club

Through the difficult times we need t0 keep our contact with each other lu our clubs, 10 help Us toward that sanity and farsightedness which comes from thinking together says Alice Ames Winter in an article on What War is doing 10 Club Life" in the General Federation Of Womens clubs Magazine.
 Did you think for a moment that the war was sinking club life? It is mag nifying it. The club is our leaven. lt has raised the war bread of today, she says
 Service has been our heart word For many years. With the flame of patriotic feeling falling upon us, it has become sacrificial service. We are ready trained to offer hand and brain, soul and spirit upon the altar in daily sacrifice, glad that the task is hard, glad We are not afraid to give abund- Rntly glad to feel ourselves sharing in the heroic business upon which our husbands and brothers are launched.
 The confusion of mind, the dazed horror of those first days when we req lized that we too were involved in the most devastating war of history-these have passed, and we are getting our gait. We know what we, we women are to do as our part, and we are de- Icrmined to do it quietly, efficiently patiently, triumphantly.
 One very important fact grows clear to ms: Club life taught us to work together, 10 sink all minor difficulties, lo use direct business methods, to un- derstand that unity of effort is the price bf efficiency. This is the stand ard that our country now demands of

us. Club life taught us public spirit We learned that the underlying prin- ciples of family life. which are our motive power, are also the underlying principles of the state. The family is the unit not only of our individual lives but also of the nation. This the dominant thought that our country now demands. Club life taught us what activities were useful to the commonweal.
 In consequence of this training, with the outbreak of the war, club women were called on, north and south east and west, to take the leadership among their fellow women. They were prepared. These are the trained women. The day of the inef- ficient woman is passed-the woman who hid behind her small selfish round of interests and prided herself on her femininity because she was an expert in the last thing in lamp shades and embroidered towels, Now Amer ica demands women who think, wonl- en who know, women who act, who see little things, little and big things big. women trained to public service. We are grateful for the humble les sons taught us by club work to help Us toward these ideals.
 The very matters to which we have been giving our energies arc those now chosen by the government, iu it's hour of trial, for women's activities. We have not been limited in our in terests to any one field. We are not opponents of particular propaganda. Every kind of woman, rich and poor, advanced and conservative. town and

 "In thanking you again for your friendly reception of our commission, can only add an expression of confidence in uiti- mate victory in this war upon preventive disease as well as in that other in which our two countries are ROW fighting side by side as allies"
 The other members of the commission, which WIS formally received by President Poincare at the Palais des Champs Elysees. are Dr. James Alexander Miller, Homer Folks, Professor Selskar NJ. Gum and Herman G. Place, secretary.
 The members of the commission point out that the experience of France had in it valuable lesson for America, where the examinations of registered men for our army already indicate that about two per cent, or 100000, of these men will show symptoms of more or less active tuberculosis. It is to help prevent iD this country the terrible conditions that have arisen in France that the American Red Cross and the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis are selling the Red Cross Christmas seals this fall. They hope by this sale to raise three million dollar war campaign fund.

Poincare Describes Ravages of the Great White Plague in
 the War Zone.

NJ. Raymond Poincare, President of France, gives a graphic picture of the rarages of tuberculosis in the war zone in an address to the American Commis- sion for the Prevention of Tuberculosis, which is helping the French nation fight the disease. The great white plague" has already cost the French army nearly 100000 soldiers and has wrought untold havoc in prison camps and among the civilian population of the invaded dis tricts. President Poincare characterized the sending to the aid of France of this commission of experts as 'particularly precious and opportune testimony of af- lection" from the American people to his country.
 Tuberculosis played great havoc in our country before the war;" he continued. This has unfortunately increased in frightful proportions through the fault of our common enemies. Photographs, which wives and mothers receive from sons and husbands who are prisoners show how much these loved ones have be- come emaciated and almost unreeogniza. ble. Many of these become tuberculosis The hostages which the enemy gathers ir the invaded regions and forcibly transfer. into Germany also fall 6 prey to the dis ease.

Woodrow Wilson"
 In replying to the President Dr. Ldv lingston Farrand, director of the commis-
 sion, said:-
 Tt Is with deep concern that we ir America have learned of the increasing ravages that tuberculosis is making among the French people. and at 6 time wher your energies and resources are neces sarily absorbed in other directions.
