Saturday. June -. 1917.

This is rather an unimportant day
in planetary direction. According 70
astrology Mercury is strongly benefc
in aspect early in the morning, put
later Uranus and the Sun are adverse.
1t is a day for making contracts II
they are safeguarded. Advertising has
a promising rule. making for novel
experiments.
Under this government Of the stars
there appears TO be an immense IN
crease in work that is clerical or tab
ulated. Stastictics of every sort Will
invite universal interest.
Again the stars will give warning
Of spies, treachery, and deception.
sensational event is presaged.
Caution in travelling is urged, while
this configuration rules. Machinery,
especially whatever is propelled by
electrical energy, is likely to be dan
gerous.
Explosions are foreshadowed. These
may take place in cellars or subways.
Diplomacy is subject to sinister in
huences today, as unusual judgments
and hasty speech are supposed TO De
encouraged by the stars.
The aspect is not encouraging for
love affairs or for romance Of any
sort.
Poetry and literature Of an imagi-
native character should gain wide at
tention in the next year. as phantasy
is inspired by the planetary conditions.
The Washington herald., 1917-06-23

The influence OF Uranus today is sup
posed TO increase the activity Of the
mind, making It restless, easily an
noyed and rebeIlious.
Scandals concerning men in high
place who speculate In the necessaries
OF life and at the same time ally
themselves in war relief work are
foretold by the seers.
In the United States rumors OF un-
pleasant character will disturb the
public mind during the next two
months, the seers declare.
This whole month may be exceed
ingIy trying for Italy, owing to inter
nal disorders in which the populace
show Unruly inclinations due to food
shortage and weariness OF war condi-
tons.
Persons whose birthdate It is have
the augury Of business success, but
they should be careful not TO give Of

NOTES OF THE o U

A scout! He enjoys a hike through
the woods more than he does a walk
over the clty's streets. He can tell
north or south or east or west by the
"signs." He can tie a knot that will
hold, he car climb a tree which seems
impossible to others, he a swim a
river, he can pitch q tent, he can mend
a tear in his trousers, he can tell you
which fruits and seeds are poisonous
and which are not, he can sight nut
bearing trees at a distance; If living
near ocean or lake he can reef a sail
or take his trick at the wheel, and If
near any body of water at all he a
pull an car or use paddles and souls ;
in the woods he knows the names Of
birds and animals; in the water he
tells you the different varieties of
6sh.
The Boy Scouts Of Ruston, La, have
written Or. Oscar Bowling, president
Of the state board Of health, saying
that they have secured the state mos
quito survey of their town and pro
pose to eradicate mosquitoes and flies.
With this object In view, they have re-
quested the state board Of health to
detail an inspector to assist them in
starting the work.
1t is stated that Iowa Is the home Of
ut least 1854 different varieties Of
birds. The Boy Scouts Of that state
claim that there are at least $40 varie-
ties of birds In the state and intend to
prove their statement. They Will make
notes on all birds that they see and
send these to some central office where
they will be carefully studied and ar
ranged.

TANNING OF %nHooLIeANs."

The English "HOoligan' corresponds
to the American rough neck. He is the
fellow who drapes himself about the
corner saloon, spits tobacco juice on
the pavement and makes obnoxious
remarks about passers-by.
Gen. Sir Robert Baden Powell has
long devoted a part Of his time to
the tanning of young "Hooligans." The
tanning of lions, tigers and other large
pussy cats would be easier but he feels
that it would be less profitable from
the standpoint of the nation.
His recipe for doing the job is: First,
catch your Hooligan; second, make
him an associate member Of a scout
troop; third, let him become a scout
as soon as he qualities. which in 80
per cent of the cases has been found
TO be about a week or two.
Many Of them have already been re-
warded for public service. 1t is a
pathetic sight to see u real Hooligan

S. P. Encourages
Liberty Bond Purchase

The machinery of the Southern.
Pacifc's great system has taken
up the campaign to increase the
sale of Liberty Bonds. Have
you bought YOUR Liberty BOnd?"
is the slogan which the Southern
Pacific has adopted as its partic-
ular own. Every advertisement
carried by the company in news
papers throughout the Pacific
Coast carries the slogan. Every
one of the SO, 600 pieces of mail
matter sent out daily from the
general offices of the Southern
Pacific Company in San Fran
cisco carries this slogan affixed
by a rubber stamp; all dining car
menues ask the question of
thousands of patrons. Soon, all
station waiting rooms and ferry
boats will display attractive
Liberty Bond posters. The South
ern Pacific Company semi-month-
ly Bulletin which reaches 45, 600
employees calls attention to the
Liberty Bonds.
In this way it is hoped the
Golden West will live up to its
name.
