ARKANSAS GUARDS
 ARE ORDERED HOME
First Regiment is Included in Troops Designated to Leave the BOrder-Will Move Very Soon.

Washington, Jan. 21.-More than 25,OOO national guardsmen now on the Mexican border, among them the First Arkansas, have been designated by Major General Funston for return home and muster out of the federal service, under the order issued yester day by the War Department.
 All these organizations will be start ed homeward as soon as transporta- tion facilities can be provided. Their departure will leave between 45,OO0 and 50,000 men of the guard still do- ing border patrol.
 War Department officials continue to withhold comment on reports that the movement of General Pershing's regulars out of Mexico soon will be under way, and the statement an- Inouncing the guarsmen designated for relief does not connect these or ders with the withdrawal plans in any way. The understanding has been, however, that with the return of the expedition in Mexico and readjust- ment of the border patrol all of the state troops gradually would be sent home.
 The departments statement said: General Funston has selected these preparations chiefly in accordance with the rule of returning first those troops longest in service on the bor- der. To some extent, however, this rule could not be followed without un- equal weakening of the border guard, and the departures from it are so ex- plained. The total strength of the organizations selected is 25,243."
 Guards Named to Return.
 Troops designated by General Fun ston include the First Arkansas in- fantry, First Battalion Field Artil- lery and Field Hospital Mo- l of Louisiana, Fourth Missouri Infantry Ambulance Company No. 1, and Field Hospital No. 1 of Tennessee, First Oklahoma Infantry and Troops A and B Cavalry, hospital company and Company A engineers of Oklahoma. Organizations of the following states also are included: Delaware Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire New York, North Carolina, Ohio Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, Virginia, Wisconsin and | the District of Columbia.

THE ELECTRIC FORSTER
 A TIME SAVER

The electric toaster is the time saver of the breakfast table. While the cook is busy boiling eggs, making coffee, or cooking fiapjacks, it is a human failing to forget the toast until smoke pouring from the oven calls attention to the burning of the bread. At the close of the performance it is necessary to cut more bread, and place it in the oven, and while this is being done possibly the coffee may have the flavor boiled out of it, or the cakes may burn.
 Consider this wasteful method in comparison with the making of toast right on the breakfast table under the personal supervision of the lord and master of the household. By simply plugging the toaster into the nearest lighting fixture it is possible for the head of the house to brown the bread to suit his taste while he is glancing over the morning ews or buttering his cakes. Tn the meantime the cook is unhampered and may concentrate her efforts on preparing the best coffee of which she is capable and the baking of additional cakes.
 The cost of operating an electric toaster is trivial, less indeed than the cost of the bread burned up by the old process. A cent will buy enough cleo tricity at 10 cents kilowatt to toast bread for family of five. And while new slices of bread are changing to golden brown before the intense rays of heat the other pieces of toast are kept warm on top of the appliance.

WAR MAKES PETROLEUM KING
Upon Refined Products of Oil As 1t Is Upon Wheat.

The European war is without doubt doing more 10 direct general attention, to the claims of oil and its multitudin- ous products than any amount of ad- vertising in normal times could have accomplished.
 The great clash of arms on the con- tinent has from its commencement shown that the necessity for the pro- ducts of petroleum in up-to-date war fare is no less than in either the in- dustrial circles or In domestic life. We are today as much dependent upon the refined products of crude oil as we are upon wheat and other necessities of life, and as time goes on, and the uses which are constantly being found for petroleum multiply, our dependency upon oil becomes the greater.
 It Is no surprise, therefore, to find that not only are petroleum products generally commanding greater atten- tion than they ever before did, but that particularly healthy atmosphere permeates those enterprises which have laid themselves out-and success fully so-tO engage in the production, the refining, the transport, or the dis tribution of petroleum products. There is. in short, no mistaking the fact that in the future, oil will be king.-Petrol- cum Review.

AT THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

At the Presbyterian church yester- 3av at the morning service, Dr. Will Hams delivered an able discourse on ~Everv Man in His Place." The theme was the necessity of every church r,omber doing his or her part. He dwelt upon the organization of the cburch and what it has accomplished and what it would accomplish if every minister, elder, deacon and member came up to the full measure of his or her duty. The sermon was very much enjoyed by the few who braved the weather to attend church.
 A larger crowd, caused largely by inc improvement in the weather, and partly by the fact that one of their sister congregations worshipped with the Presbyterians, heard an able dis course from the text in Jude, Keep Yourselves in the Love of God" The sermon was very instructive and en- .eouraging to those who doubt their ability to hold out faithful to the end. Attention was called to the bible doc Urine that God is able to keep those who have accepted Christ as their Saviour.

 Gloria s Romance
Gloria Learns That Dr. Royce and Not Freneau Was Her ReScuer from the Indian.

Chapter II, "The Fugitive Witness" The Stafford family having arrived at David's country home, prepare to sally forth and enjoy the skating and toboganning. Gloria is in a sombre mood, but is finally persuaded to join the merry party. Mulry, now a guest of his friend Davidson, who lives near David Stafford, looks from his win dow and sees the skating party on the lake nearby. He tries to persuade his jolly companions to abandon their cards and highballs and join in the outdoor sports, but his pleadings prove futile. On the following day, how ever, Mulry surprises his companions by bolting, clad in a regulation to- boganning suit, and a few moments later they are amazed at seeing the genial fat man sliding down hill with Gloria Stafford.
 Mulry, quite unaware with whom he is sliding, is surprised and delight ed when Gloria, who has recognized him, invites him to David's home for hot toddy. He immediately accepts her invitation and a few moments later they are in tete-a-tete in the big living room. Suddenly Gloria rounds on the astonished Mulry with the question, "Why did you mail the letters from Freneau to mel" Before the disconcerted Mulry can answer, Dr. Royce enters and deliberately puts an end to the conversation. Mulry, at a glance from Royce, excuses himself and departs, exclaiming as he goes, Goodbye, I'm off for Palm Beach, Florida" As he is about to leave the house Lois intercepts him and asks him if he has seen her letters among Freneau's effects. Mulry replies in the negative.
 Gloria, angry at Royce for his ap- parently rude interruption, surprises her father by sudden demand to be taken to Palm Beach, Fla. A few days later, hard on the heels of Mulry, the Stafford family arrives at Florida Mulry quickly learns of Gloria's pres. ence and is forced to unusual exertions in trying to evade her. The chase finally becomes too hot for him anc he heizes an suspicious moment tc decamp.

South Bend women are preparing
themselves 10 take an active part in
the care Of sick and wounded in the
event of war, besides making all Of
the sacrifices that women must
make If their husbands and sons are
called to the cOlors. Two classes in
the elements OF caring for the sick
are being organized at the Y. w. G..
A, and another is being formed un-
der the supervision of the St. Jo-
seph Hospital Aid society, while a
group of prominent society women
OF the city have just completed one
course under the auspices of the
American Red Cross society and are
planning on taking up another fea-

aid to the injured. These courses
will TT them for actual service on
the battlefield, if the United States
should be drawn into war. They
will be classed as aids to Red Cross

both in hospitals and at the front.
Eighteen prominent women of the
city have already completed the
course in hygiene and home care of
the sick and will start taking the
work in first aid in about two weeks.
The class was organized by Mrs.
