CONGRESSMAN Dominick is liable to

zee bv the papers that he was strong
for declaring war upon Austria-Hun-
gary. Mr.. Dominick was one of a
fau men in congress who were un-

The farmers of this county have
always been progressive. A progress
sive step for them now will be the
planting of tobacco. 1t is not prob
able that tobacco will be a gold mine
the first year it is planted, but with
few years experience it can be
made one of the county's most impor-
tant products. The people are not
urged to plant it on a large scale all
at once. But suppose you try few
acres next season and see how you
come out. If you can have two mon
ey crops instead of one, you will be
that much better off. If you fail,
the experiment will not have cost
you very much.
We notice that DR.. Anna Howard
Shaw, chairman of the woman's COM
mittee of the national council of de-
fense, favors all tobacco users OBJ
serving a smokeless Friday in each
week. OF course, the good doctor,
being a woman, does not smoke, and
therefore does not appreciate the sac
rifice that would thereby be entailed
upon those who use the weed after
each meal to 'digest" their food. Sc
riously, however, the suggestion may
not be a bad one. If it is necessary
for smokers to sacrifice some of their
Joy il order that he soldier boys
may have tobacco, then they should
make the sacrifice, and do it willing
ly.

We do not advise people against
spending their money for Christmas,
because to do so would be useless
and also because that is their own
business, but when you are eating

might remember that there are many
thousands of people who really have
not enough upon their tables to graft
fy a healthy appetite, to say nothing
of a luxurious dinner, and make II
a point to fix up a nice basket or. so
and give it to some poor family. 1t

ITALIAN WAR AEROS
MAY TRY FLIGHT
AcROSSATLANTIC

The trip Of four italian battle
planes from Newport News to wash
lngton and return will be q prelude
TO a transatlantic flight.
This announcement was made at
the italian embassy yesterday follow
ing the arrival OF six Italian aviators
here from Newport News to make ar
rangements for the flight. The four
planes. It is understood. represent the
different types of aircraft used by the
Italian army, including a giant battle
plane, designed to accommodate ten
passengers. The planes were brought
to this country to demonstrate the
progress made in aeronautics by Italy
since the outbreak Of the war. Fol-
lowing the flight to Washington, the
planes, which are now at Newport
News. will make trip to New York.
The trans-continental flight, from
Norfolk to San Francisco, also Is
being considered. and II this is sue
cessful. the fiers will attempt to cross
the Atlantic.
When Italy entered the war in May,
1915, she had only a small number OF
aeropIanes, practically all OF which
were of French make. Today Italy Is
said to have more than 5000, includ-
ing some Of the finest IN the world.

battle planes is capable OF a speed OF
157 miles an hour. and can rise to 4

"NOISE GIVES HIM PAIN"

Noise and excitement give me a
terrible pain in the back OF my head
says Herbert Ringwall, of Boston. in
an appeal to the War Department
from the decision OF a Massachusetts
board denying him exemption from
the draft.
Ringwall is a musician. When
other children were playing baseball
and at other sports he was practicing
on the plano. All his life, his appeal
says, he had ''lived in horror OF guns
and noise" AS a final argument he
asks:
when a musician loses one piece
of a finger of what use is he to the
country or to art?"
Provost Marshal General Crowder
hasn't been able to find the answer
% this question, but he is looking
about for some non-combatant branch
OF the service in which the Boston
pianist would fit.

as the earliest date at which an ac-

could be obtained
On the first day of school last
year, $4,000 pupils reported. Only
10000 reported for study yesterday.
At the same time. a total Of 6l 900
pupils were enrolled In the graded
and high schools last year, many Of
whom entered between the time
school opened and October !.
The enrolment in tho graded
schools, however, was above normal
for the first day, considering the fact
that nearly 1000 Jewish children
were unable to enroll, owing to Rosh
Hoshana, the Jewish New Year. 1t
was believed today, however, that the
subnormal enrolment in number of
the high schools might not be made
up later in the year.
This is particularly true Of Busi-

NAY DRAFT 100000 TO
FILL UP SIGNAL CORPS

To I'LL the army signal corps, the
War Department may decide to draft
an additional 100000 men.
The signal service has asked for a
decision on the method to pursue in
filling up gaps existing in the avia-
tion and telegraph branches, and the
general stan is expected to answer in
. few days.
The draft law permits the filling of
units which are now below strength,
but It is held that an added 100, 900
instead OF any of the $4,000 of the
original draft would be necessary for
the signal corps.
Men who Join the aviation section
will have a chance to train either in
American schools or in England,
France, or Italy.
England, 1t is learned, has es-
tablished a flying school in Egypt
which is used chiefly by the Canadian
corps.
