man barbarity and inhumanity told
by Mr.. Frost was when the German
captors carried an American mer-
chant officer back on his ship to touch
off the bombs that sent it to the bot
tom. Submarine officers amused
themselves by taking pictures to send
home to their sweethearts while ~
men were drowning.
"The full infamy of the German
practice of deserving survivors in open
boats on the sea cannot be caught
until you know that the submarines
often refuse to tow them to land
when weather conditions and every
circumstance is favorable. Germany's
submarine guilt-the basis of the
American declaration of war-hangs
upon four points," Mr.. Frost stated.
"Torpedolng without warning when
warning could safely be given"
Refusing tc tow boats even under
the most favorable conditions.
Delaying until night fall the de-
struction which could more humanely
be done by day.
Finally, the pitiless Smelling of

Notes From The Normal
A BACKWARDS" PARTY,

One of the very jolliest evenings
that have been enjoyed in the school
this year was spent last Saturday
evening at Sullivan Hail.
The Y. w. C. A. is always looking
out for the pleasure and entertain
ment of its members and Saturday
evening marked the beginning of a
series of rather unique birthday par
ties which will be looked forward to
sometime during each month with no
little eogerness. The party Saturday
evening was to celebrate the birth
days of all members that occur in Oc-
.ober. These members were honor
guests and were allowed to invite
one guest outside the organization.
The affair was announced as
backwards" party, and those attend
ing were requested to come dressed
backwards" to walk backwards"
and play "backwards.1 Every one
entered into the spirit of the idea
with such good will that no one ap-
peared without being dressed for the
occasion according to request. Rarely
has a scene of more merriment been
witnessed that that which presented
itself when the guests and friends
be~to assemble. They were ush-
: as.-the stairway to the play
room, where the party was held, past
ghostly figures under dimmed lights,
passing the Fortune Tellers" fodder
hut, over soft, billowy treading spaces
and out onto firmer footing into
a maze of entanglements on the large
play room floor walking backwards"
all the while and with no light on their
pathway save the varying flicker en-
anating from the grinning faces of
jack O. lanterns scattered about the
room.
The piano was played backwards"
the "ghost orchestra" performed in
the same fashion and partakers in all
games followed the reverted order
Every turn and each new situation
brought peals of laughter. The en-
tire evening was a successful round
of fun and frolic. Refreshments
were served at the close of the enter
tainment and great interest conferred
in the cutting of the large birthday
cake. Each birthday" honor guest
cut the cake for herself and her in
vited guest, the invited guest making
two wishes for her friends one of
which was kept secret and the other
given out. AS the last wish was
made a candle was blown out to in
sure its realization. This afforded
an opportunity for the play of wit
and humor and rounds of laughter
and applause greeted each new wish.
Miss Ella Hanawalt, Miss Kath-
leen Sullivan, Miss Jeanette Pates,
Miss Mabel Ruth Coates, and Miss
Alice Petty were the outside guests

DROP IN BREAD PRICEIS
FORECAST BY FOOD BOARD
Plans for Control of Wheat and Flour
Distribution Have Been Completed
by Food Administration.

Washington, Aug. 15.-Plans for con.
trolling the distribution of wheat and
for regulating the manufacture and
sale of -four have been completed by
the food administration.
Creation of a wheat control board
will be announced as soon as President
Wilson has approved its personnel.
This board will be made responsible
for putting into effect measures an.
nounced by the food administration.
In fixing the price to be paid pro
ducers for wheat the food administra
ton, it is said, will seek to give the
farmer fair price and at the same
time name a fair figure which will
permit the public to receive bread at
a price much below that now prevail
ing. AS soon as the wheat and -four
industries have been put under regu.
lation the food administration plans
to extend its control to bakeries, hop.
ing to reduce the price now paid for
bread. There is no present plan to
put cereals other than wheat under
immediate control.

Ia FARMERS ARRESTED
ON ESPIONAGE CHARGE
Are Accused of Circulating Petitions
Which Would Mean Virtual Seces-
sion Of Counties.

Trip, S. D., Aug. Is. = Fourteen
farmers have been arrested by United
States Marshal Taubman on a charge
of violating the espionage act and in
terfering with the nations military
operations. They are said to have cir.
culated a petition calling for the prac-
teal secession of Hutchinson county
from the Union.
The petition said that the draft law
was forced upon the people, though 80
per cent of them were against it. Be-
cause more were allotted Hutchinson
county under the draft than Minneha-
ha or Dawson counties, where the ad-
vance enlistments were heavy, the Pc
tition threatened county officers with
defeat unless they voted to repudiate
all war debts and to demand reappor-
tionment of the draft.

HORROR OF DESERT WARFARE
Dust, Heat and Flies Are Worst,
Plaques From Which Soldiers
Suffer In Mesopotania.

Hardships and discomforts Of the
British campaigns in Palestine and;
Mesopotamia are the themes Of many!
letters written by soldiers serving I'M,
der the commands of General Sir
Archibald Murray, in Palestine, or
Major General Maude, in Mesopotamia
IF you want to see a middle, you
ought to see camel convoy under
shellfire," writes one man from the
vicinity of GAIA, in southern Pales-
tine. ''The natives who lead the
camels run away at the first shot, and
then the white men try to induce, by
all the profanity they can muster,
those camels to hurry out of range or
under the cover of hill. All the time
good lives are being lost trying to save
the convoy, which perhaps has the
water supply for thousands of men on
the firing line"
Dust, heat and flies are the worst
three plaques of Mesopotamia from
the soldiers standpoint, writes one of
the privates who suffered from them.
ITO you," he adds, "the flies would
be quite inconceivable. They settle in
great clusters on everything. Some of
them can sting and bite severely. With
the coming of nightfall the ordinary
flies disappear and the mosquitoes
and sandflies take their places. The
sandfly is an insidious plague. You
have to wear very fine suffocating
mesh on your face, and at night you
must spray thin acid over your face
to get any peace. The temperature
goes up from ITO to 142 degrees in the
shade. The mornings work being
done, you lie in your tent with the
flap up. You almost gasp for breath
Anxiously you await the going down
of the sun. You wear a toupee or a
wet towel on your head. One very
rarely wears much clothing, and you
lead the simple life. The heat takes
all pride from you. You're just bathed
in dust and sweat.
"You can get sunstroke through the
small of your back. The hot wind
bad as it is, is better than the COM
plete. stiffness, although it bounces off
the earth, flinging sand and dust all
over you. You eat sand and breath
it; you lie down in it; it's in your
mouth, eyes, ears and clothes. These
things leave MesopOtamia burnt into
your memory forever"
