The investment of the permanent

cons idered and decided on by state
Treasurer Hall. Governor Lindsey and
Secretary of State Antonio Lucero. the

by law to reject or approve any pro-

islature. providing for the Investment
of the permanent school funds only in
New Mexico securities, presented an
obstacle and with viewlto oveIcom-
ing this IL was decided to take the mat
ter in the district court OF santa Fe
county, on the ground that the legisla
ture had no authority to provide for
the investment of funds in any manner
conflicting with the enabling act. which
specifies simply that they must be in
vested in interest bearing securities"
Accordingly. State Auditor Sargent to-
day refused to Issue warrant for the

NOT WORTH FIGHTING FOR

Washington, oct. s.-Secretary OF the
Treasury McAdoo administered "A sting
ing rsbuke to DR.. II. e. Stockridge of
Atlanta. Ga, president OF the Farmers
National Congress, for asserting that
the farmers organization would not
support the second Liberty Loan be-
cause Mr.. McAadoo was reputed to Ia
vOr the increase of postage rates on
periodicals. including agricultural pub
lications. Dr. Stockbridge telegraphed
the secretary that the appeal for CO.
operation meets little response from
us," and Mr.. McAdoo replied:
Your telegram received. | under
stand your position to be that you will
not assist the government in selling
the next Liberty Loan on the ground
that the administration and | person
ally are supposed TO favor the Nickel
Ter amendment, or the proposed in
crease in postal rates on second class
mail matter, which includes farm and
other publications..
AS a matter of fact. am not in sym
pathy with this legislation. and have
said that | thought IL had no place in
the revenue bill. that this was an in
opportune time to raise the issue. and
that il ought to be considered upon it's
merits in connection with postoffice
legislation and not with revenue or
treasury matters
liz IL n Reason for Opposition.
But even II l favored 1t. is that 4,
reason why you should be unwilling to
buy or assist in selling United Estates

why you should refuse to lend money

every other class of American citizens
who have been drafted or who have
volunteered to give their lives to pro-
ttect your liberty and property. the nec-
essary guns with which to fight; the

pendent families while they are at the

GRIM GAS BATTLES FOUGHT
Quantities by Both Sides in Strug- gles on British Front.

Andre Tudesq, writing of the battles on the British front, says there was such an expenditure of asphyxiating shells one day that six hours after the last deluge of them suffocating smells were still passed through.
 Lavish expenditure of gas on both sides form a characteristic of the flu rious attacks and counter attacks which have been delivered day and night round these two villages. The mask is here as precious as the grenade or the rife.
 AS in a frightful carnival, in the manner of Edgar Allan Poe, one could see in the night on the slopes west of Fresnoy entire regiments in masks fighting and killing each other in the midst of black vapors, which were rendered more fantastic by the light of the moon.
 The hand-to-hand struggle thus took on most singular forms. Throwing away their arms the combatants would fly at each others throats and try to tear away each others masks. Few prisoners were taken in these encoun- ters, and the wounded are fewer still Death alone receives the lions share.'

Swedish Drill.

They were in the squad under train. ing at certain military center who furnished contrast not uncommon these days. One was tall and wiryi the other short and puffy, and an hour of Swedish drill had set the lesser of the two to blowing hard.
 'I can't stand much of this" he whispered. I'm simply all out" and at that moment the drill sergeant in. timated that he would give them an other spell before they dismissed.
 This was too much. The podgy pa triot felt 1t was time to protest.
 "Tm really awfully sorry to seem un military in addressing you, sir" he said, but this Swedish drill is more than I can face in my present condi tion; besides" he added, dolefully, q never knew we were at war with Swe den."

PLENTY TO EAT

 Don't Mind Work Now.

Ut may sound unreasonable, and you may believe me or not, but after talk ing four bottles of Tanlac I have gained 25 pounds" said J. B. Williams, well- known and prosperous farmer who re- sides at Greenbrier, Tenn, near Nash vile, Tenn.
 T had bad case of stomach trou- ble last summer, and it came pretty near knocking me out," continued Mir. Williams 'sIt was something like nervous indigestion. I began to go down hill. It looked like the more medicine I took and the harder I tried to get well, the worse would get. We had pretty near everything to eat, but nothing tasted right. and I got so weak and nervous I couldn't do anything.
 Before I had this spell I weighed 160 pounds, and kept falling off until I got down to where I only weighed 135 pounds.
 'sI am now back to my regular weight again, and feel strong and well. My appetite is simply fine now, and don't mind my work. This Tanlac just took right hold of me, and put me on my feet.
 Well, sir, the second day after be- gan taking it, I got hungry and oh, how good that old ham did taste! sleep fine now, too. and am not nerv- ous like I was Even the barking of the dogs at night does not wake me up.

Col. John Ward, NJ. F., is popular hero.
 When he was a sergeant and was licking into shape the raw recruits for his famous navvies' battalion his method of imparting instruction, though not always according to the drill book, was simple, direct and ef- ficient.
 Once, for instance, he was in charge of squad at musketry.
 'This," he said, 'is the bayonet boss, and this is the bayonet bar. Boss and bar-you can easily remember that ; where you get your money and where you spend it."
 The squad grinned sheepishly. But they understood-and remembered.

To Keep Alive Service Spirit

And still the wonder Is growing here at the results of registration day. There is an infowing stream of tele- grams and letters from the country, most of which give in enthusiastic de scription the marked service spirit and service desire with which the young men of all sections of the country went to their duty.
 Belief is strong in Washington to- day that the war department will take advantage of the patriotic psychology of the occasion to move quickly with selections and exemptions and thus to give the country its new national army in short order.
 It is known that officials believe in- stant preparation for the rest of the work should be made and that no more time than Is necessary should be given to allow the ardor of youth to cool. There was a volunteer spirit evident everywhere Registration day, and it is this spirit which quick action, Wash ington believes, will keep alive.
 It is realized that President Wilson has a difficult and delicate task In the outlining of industrial class exemp- lions. Unquestionably he studied the matter for long time, advising almost daily with Provost Marshal General Enoch H. Crowder and other army officials as to just what form the reg nlations of industrial exemption should take.
 No Glasses of Industry Exempt
 There are still evidences in Wash ington that men engaged in certain pursuits in lie take 1t for granted that they will not be called to the col ors. In some sections of the country farmers have been told by persons ignorant of the facts in the case that they will not be called.
