LOOKS LIKE WATER AVIATION
One Thousand Sail For France For
Service AT The Front.

Clad in new uniforms, and equipped
with sweaters and helmets furnished
by the Navy League Comforts Com.
mittee, one thousand men from the
Allentown Ambulance Camp have sail
ed for service at the front in France.
With their gray knitted helmets
snugly fitting over their heads and
around their necks the thousand bright
fellows who have gone to alleviate
suffering in the trenches looked like so
many water aviators" as they hung
over the deck rails of the .trans-Atlan-
tic steamer which was to carry them
into service abroad.
The Comforts Committee of the
Navy League, knowing that these men
would be exposed night nd day to the
hardships of a bleak, cold winter of
Northern France, made three ship
ments of warm wollen garments to
the Commander of the Allentown
Camp.
Sweaters, helmets, mufflers, and
wristlets, made by the loving hands of
mothers, sisters and sweethearts left
behind, were included for the boys who
volunteered to labor for the suffering.
That the Ambulance Drivers appre-
ciate the patriotic labor of the Ameri-
can women who unseltishly gave time
and money to provide them with ne
cessary warm clothing is demonstrated
by letter which has been received by
an official of the Navy Legaue from
Commander j. r. Devereaux OF the
Ambulance Corps going to France.
I'VE have the boxes containing the
sweaters, helmets. etc.. wrote Col
onel Devereaux, land the final distri-
button will take place today for the
thousand men who are going abroad
with me.
''In this connection | desire to thank
you sincerely for your personal efforts
in getting these to US in time, and Off
cially to thank the League for their
generosity towards this Corps. ! do
not believe that a man who has re
ceived these is not appreciative of the
gift"

LABOR SHORTAGE IN ALASKA
Wages Are Mounting Higher, Ordinary
Laborers Being Paid as Much
as S12 Day.

An Alaskan correspondent writes
that the shortage of labor in interior
Alaska has become acute, and In con.
sequence employ are bidding
against each otheI 10r the services of
such laborers as are TO be had. with
the result that wages are mounting to
unprecedented figures. This condition
is especially noticeable in the Fair
banks district, where as much as $12
q day has recently been paid for ordi-
nary pick and shovel laborers. There
are not nearly enough workers to fill
the available jobs, and instead of inn
provement the condition is expected to
grow worse.
The Alaska road commission. which
received an appropriation of 100000
for the building of roads and trails this
year, is in the market for a large force
of laborers, and where they are to
come from nobody knows. Moreover,
mining operations are just beginning
in large way, and this industry will
require more men than the present la
boring population of the Fairbanks
region. and if they cannot be had the
industry viii suffer severely. Similar
conditions, but less severe, existed last
year. and were due to the draining of
the labor resources by the government
railroad, which is still short of men.
AS in all former years, many laborerS
will undoubtedly come in from the
states, but not enough are expected to
even ill the wants of the railroad COM
mission, much less TO adequately re-
lieve the needs of private employers.
What is true of the interior labor
shortage was also true in n less degree
of the coast regions until recently. OF
1000 laborers Sailing from Seattle to
Alaska last spring not half dozen got
as far as the interior. the men finding
Jobs in the coast regions. Should some
means not be found 10 relieve the labor
shortage in the interior its develop
ment will be affected more seriously
than last year. when a shortage Of la
Dor resulted in many ventures being
abandoned. Many mining companies
were unable TO complete their seasons
operations. and not a few business
men went broke because of inability
to ill their contracts.

IMMIGRANTS MAKES 100000 IN
YEAR

Darwin P. Kingsley, President Of
the New York Life Insurance Com
pany, tells in the July American Maya
zine of a wonderful man. He says:
"'Do you know that the biggest in
come made by New York Life man
In 1916 was earned by an agent who
came from German Poland to America
in the steerage of an ocean liner-who
arrived here friendless, penniless, and
without working knowledge Of the
English language,
"Last year this man made 100000
In commissions alone, an amount $780,
900 greater than the salary Of the
President of the United States. When
you consider that many life, insurance
agents make less than $1,000 year,
you will see what this immigrants
achievement signifies,
"'Yet there Is nothing surprising to
me In this Almost every man has I'M
dreamed of possibilities. If something
hits him In tho right spot, II his ambi-
lions and energies are Embossed, he
will quickly discover these possibili-
ties. Otherwise he may pass through
life in an easy rut, never tapping the
great reserves within him."

WHAT WOMEN ARE DOING IN THE
WAR

Anna Steese Richardson, who Is run
ming the department for exchange of
ideas for patriotic service in the Wo-
mans Home Companion, says in the
August number
Women the country over are or
ganizing to serve their country. Many
of the organizations, devised to give
efficient help in desperately needed
work, nevertheless prove disappoint-
ing to women who wish to join them.
These women find, on investigation,
that the work Of the organizations Is
too complex, or that they require more
time than the average woman can give,
or that the efforts are duplicated by
others, or that the output of work is
not satisfactorily distributed, or even
that 1t cannot be used at all.
"Often the women who would like
to help, and whose help is really
needed, become confused by commit
tees and subcommittee and divisions
and subdivisions Of subcommittee
The intricacies Of organization arc diff
ficult for most Of us to grasp, and in
relief work of such vast proportions as
that occasioned by this war it is i'm
possible to keep the mechanical dc ails
simple and direct"

SOW BUCKWHEAT IN JULY

Increased buckwheat acreage is
urged this year by agriculture experts
in order to meet the shortage in wheat
production. The time is now at hand
to plant the crop. July seeding in
Ky. is preferred because the ripen-
ing period must come in cool weather
OF September for best development of
the grain. Only ordinary land and
preparation of soil are needed for this
crop. The only feltilizers recon-
mended by the Ky. Experiment Sta
ton are acid phosphate and steamed
bonemeal this year. Row phosphate
rock may also be applied if used with
manure. The Japanese variety is
most frequently grown. The Gray
and Silver Hull are also common.
From three to five pecks is seeded to
the acre. Drilling generally gives
larger yields than broadcast seeding
