Wants Germanic
Ochs Changed to
English Oakes


Philadelphia, July 25.-Desiring to
relieve his sons of Teutonic appella'
ton which he believes will arouse
hostility and prove an unnecessary
burden in their future social, COM
mercial and professional relations,
George w. Ochs, former publisher OF
the Philadelphia Public Ledger, to-
day petitioned the courts to change
his name to George w. Ochs Oakes.
THE name Ochs," says the peti-
ton, 'is purely Germanic in origin
and spelling.
"Your petitioner believes that by
reason of the atricious crimes of the
German armies and the impenitencf
of the German nation for the subma'
rine iniquities, German name fol
many years to come will be obnoxious
in this country"
Mr.. Ochs is a native-born American
of parents who came to this country
when minors.

BEST TRAINED Of
GUARDS SOON To
CO TO WAR FRONT
All State Forces, Except Those
of California and Southwest,
Are Now in the Federal Ser
vice.


Washington, July 25.-The entire
national guard of the country, with
the exception of troops from Califor-
MIA and the southwestern states, was
in the federal service tonight under
President Wilson's call.
The remaining units will be brought
in August s, on which day the whole
force of probably 100000 men will be
drafted into the army of the United
States and will lose its status as mil
itia. From that day on the state
troops can be used for any duty the
president may direct and will be sub
ject to no limitations that do not also
apply to the regular army.
The first increment of the guard
was called out ten days ago. Those
called today in the second increment
embrace New England, middle west
ern and northwestern states and sew
eral southern states. Probably more
than 10000 men went on the federal
payroll New York. Pennsylvania
and Ohio troops and those from sew
eral other states were in the first in
crement.
With liberalization of the entire
force complete after August S, the
ranks of all regiments then will be
filled up to full war strength with
men from the selective draft lists.
There have been many things to in
dicate that guard regiments which
are not fairly well equipped and which
had the benefit of the border mobili-
cation will not be held long at the di-
visional training camps. If transpor-
tation is available. the best of the
state troops may be hurried to France
at once, stopping only for final out
fitting before they sail The intensive
instruction to fit them for trench
warfare will be given at the American
training camps in France. where Gen.
|erai Pershing's regulars already are
at work.

WOODS THAT ARE DURABLE

Wood. its uses and, above all, its
prices, are matters Of moment to ev-

modelling or adding to a house.
There are some southern pines that
are comparatively reasonable and
which give good results. Houses built
Of them In Virginia and the Carolinas
attest to their durability. 1t Is suit

Cypress is being used for many pur-
poses. The great swamps Of the South
are yielding up their forests and the
lumber Is finding its way into the
northern markets. This is not as
strong a wood as some others, but It
has good lasting qualities and is equal

Its natural color.
A wood that is finding much favor

TEACH CHILDREN RIGHT WAY
Education That Teaches Them Merely
70 Avoid Wrong Cannot Be
Called Sufficient.

The average man is naturally pessi-
mistic, or inclined that way, and is
apt to spend more time and effort find
ing fault with things as they are, and
trying to tear them down, than to cor
recting them, or substituting better
things.
This comes from, or is largely due
to, the prevailing habit of teaching
children and young people to avoid do
ing wrong rather than teaching them
to do right. In this way they become
SO impressed with the immensely Of
wrong and the littleness of right that
they grow up with feeling that wrong
has gotten the better Of right.
The natural conclusion must then be
that we are going to the everlasting
bow-wows, and the very best we can
do Is to put the brakes on and 60 as
slowly as possible.
And yet every one Of us ought to
know, and should realize, that the way
to get rid Of wrong is to substitute
right, for wrong disappears before
right as darkness before light, or cold
before heat.
Where wrong is, right Is not; and
where right Is, wrong cannot come.
Right can never become wrong, no
more thin love can become hate

zette-Times.

JOURNEY IS NEVER FINISHED
Trip Over "SIeepy Road" Found by
Doctor to Be 4 Sure Cure

It is hard for me to remember now
that my knowledge Of the Sleepy Road,
gained SO many years ago, came only
through the chance bit Of advice
dropped by a wise, kind, weary old
doctor as he shuffied, at midnight,
down the corridor Of the silent hos
pital. Whatever was the errand Of
life or death that had called him in
such haste, he had time to stop and
give me friendly word, although l,
a small and incorrigibly sleepless pa
tient, was sitting bolt upright among
the pillows in defiance of all his or
ders, and was staring, wide-eyed, into
the hot, pain-haunted dark.
"You think you are never going to
be able to sleep again, don't your" he
observed; well, shut your eyes and
do just what tell you. Think of some
road that you know well, a good long
road that winds and turns and shows
you water and woods and hills. Keep
your eyes tight shut and travel along
it in memory; 60 as slowly as you
can, recall every sight and sound and
perfume as you pass by. 1 have such
a road Of my own, the one used to
walk to school when I was eight years
old; I have started out on it hun
dred times, when thought could not
sleep, but l never get very far. I
come just about to the old, stone
bridge over Damon's creek, or per-
haps to the swimming-hole where the
willows dip into the brown water, but
never reach the end."-From the At
