INSURANCE FOR SOLDIERS

Aberdeen News-To a South Dako-
tan, and an Aberdonian. belongs the
credit for originating what appears to
be n of the most practical ideas of
the war period, concerning effective
ways to aid the soldiers at the front
and the sailors who stand ready to
battle for the nations rights on the
seas.
A. F.. Chamberlain of the Dakota
Farmer editorial staff, in submitting
to the government his suggestion that
the American people be permitted to
subscribe to fund having for it's pur-
pose the payment of the life insurance
of American soldiers and sailors, has
given to the country an idea that the
News believes will appeal to most
good citizens as patriotic. helpful.
and practicable.
Mr.. CHAMBERLAIN believes there are
enough Americans in the country who
will feel like himself, to entirely re-

employment of the first
woman station agent at an important
station on the company lines. Mrs.
Julia A. Laughlin was recently ap-
pointed station master at Ames, Iowa,
a busy junction on the main Chicago
Pacific coast line. She is the widow
of a former conductor, and has al
ways been interested in railroad
work. Her duties are thus stated by
a circular from the General Passen-
ger agent:
Mrs. Laughlin will the
departure and arrival of trains, assist
and direct arriving passengers about
thhe city, help m and children or
departing passengers to proper trains
and off trains, see that mail and
baggage is ready that trains may not
be delayed, that no undesirable char
acters loiter around the station, as
sist in selling tickets, answer tele-
phone inquiries, and the thousand and
one questions that the traveller ever
asks of railways representatives, give
the clearance signal to departing
trains, and properly dispose Of the
innumerable matters that continually
arise from day to day in the conduct

Former Miller Teacher
Writes From California

Miss Elizabeth Smith, a former
teacher in the Miller schools, who Is
now principal of the Forsythe Mem
orial School in Los Angeles writes
as follows in renewing her Press sub
scription:
Editor Press:
i like California the longer
live here, and have made many good
friends; but l shall Eve lose inter
est in those Of the old home state.
We had our first rain of the season
last night. We are glad to have the
rains come after the long dry season,
but are glad when they do not come
so early as to injure the crops. One
advantage we have during the sum-
mer is, that we can plan for picnics,
camping parties etc. without any Q
that our plans will be spoiled by un-
expected rains.
A campaign is on in Los Angeles to
drive the saloons out of the city.
The a~nti-saloon people believe the
prospects are good for a victory over
the saloon element. A campaign with
BILLY Sunday" and his party closed
a little over a week ago, and 1t Is
hoped and believed by all temperance
and Christian people that his fearless
ay,,.asnf;a aud nxnncnrn nf the
evils of the licensed saloon will prove
to be the help to the temperance
cause in Los Angeles that it has been
in other cities where he has held
revival meetings. / rejoice that S.
Dakota is once more in the ranks OF
the prohibition states.
Sincerely yours,
Elizabeth Smith.

from our fighting men the bur-
den of keeping up the insurance the
war insurance bill provides. Eight
dollars pays for $1,000 insurance on
the life of a soldier or sailor. II the
soldier or sailor is killed, his family
or dependents will receive the insur-
ance. If he is disabled, the money
will be paid to him in monthly INSTALL
ments. The legislation providing for
such insurance is OF great value, even
