Washington, June 23.-With the
expansion of the military activities
of the government, considerable re-
adjustment of the housing facilities
of the government departments in
Washington has been necessary. One
of the government establishments
affected is the bureau of education,
which has moved from its old quar-
ters, long outgrown, to the Pension
Office building, taking the quarters
formerly occupied by the Indian Of
flee, also of the interior department.
In its new quarters the bureau will
carry on its regular work of investI-
eating and promoting education
throughout the states, and will also
undertake a number of additional
tasks relating to the war. Practically
every division in the bureau is per-
forming some type of war service,
Independently, in cooperation with
the state departments of education,
or in cooperation with the advisory
committee of the council of national
defense.
During the past few years the bu-
reau has installed addressing and du-
plicating equipment of the most eff
Gent type, and has been able TO get
in direct and frequent communication
with all state, city and county super
intendents of schools; principals of
elementary schools, public high
schools and private secondary schools,
secretaries of boards of education and
colleges, universities and educational
institutions of every grade. This ser
vice has gone on almost uninterrupt-
eddy, regardless of moving, and has
been especially useful in the war cri-
sis. Teachers all over the country
have been urged to lead in the gar
dening movement that forms so i'm
portant part of Americas prepared
ness service; schools and colleges
have been helped in their efforts to
give special prominence in their COM
mencement exercises to the underly-
ing causes of the war; college and
university officers have been kept in

PORTUGUESE ARE
EARNEST FIGHTERS
AGAINST GERMANY

Lisbon, Portugal, June 23.-Major
Norton de Mattos, the Portuguese min
lister of war, has gone to France to
visit the Portuguese troops serving
there. After visiting the French
front, ne intends to 90 to London for
conferences concerning Portugal's &C
tive participation in the war. His
post is filled during his absence BY
DR.. Alfonso Costa, premier and minis
ter of finance.
The letters published in the Portu-
gese press from soldiers TO their fam
lilies are all most significant, and full
of courage and faith in the victory
of the entente allies. In a letter re-
Ceived here from an English officer,
whose residence is in Lisbon and who
is now acting as interpreter with the
Portuguese troops, the following words
occur:
81 have been several times to the
front with Portuguese troops, sent
there with English for practice so
that they may be trained in the meth
DDS of war. | am glad to be able to
say that the Portuguese soldiers are
not 'funks' and all that is necessary is
strict discipline and organization"
According to the military conven-
ton between the English and Portu-
gese governments a fixed number of
troops will be sent out every month.
A decree has just been published
calling upon all classes, with a GER
tain degree of education, between 20
and As years of age, to attend mill
tary schools for eight hours a day
during three months.

A Great French Democrat.

From the beginning the chief
problem of the Allies has been
the organization for war of the
great industries of production
and transportation. For that or
ganization the cooperation of la
Dor is imperative. Both in Eng
land and in France the war has
brought representatives of the
industrial classes to power in the
government. Just as the men
and women who are working in
the munition plants and in the
fields while they send their boys
to the trenches are forcing the
displacement in England of the
old official class which controlled
Par.iamentland the army, so in
France the war has made the
government more genuinely dem
ocratic, more representative of
the whole people. Viviani the
partisan, the radical, the repre-
sentative of labor, made more
practical and more conservative
by the heavy responsibilities that
he has borne long and well, is a
part of that movement in France
just as Lloyd George is in Eng
land. He has helped to carry
gorward the complete subordina-
ton of party and person, of caste
and creed, to the cause of coun-
try, which has given France the
power to accomplish her tremen-
dous task.-From ''Joffre and
Viviani, " by Myron T. Herrick,
in the American Review of Re-
views for May, 1917.

SIoan's Liniment for Rheumatism

The torture of rheumatism, the
pains and aches that make life unbear-
able are relieved by Sloan's Liniment,
a clean, clear liquid that is easy to ap-
ply, and more effective than mussy
plasters or ointments because it PEN
etrates quickly without rubbing. For
the many pains and aches following
exposure, strains, sprains and muscle
soreness, Sloan's Liniment is promptly
effective. Always have a bottle Handy

The First Kentucky needs a thou
sand recruits to fill its ranks to war
strength. Once recruited, these men
must be cared for at the front.
It is your regiment as well as ours.
II its ranks are not filled, Kentucky
will fail to do its duty in the country
hour OF need. Kentucky has never
failed before-it must not fail now.
Knowing that you feel in this mat.
ter as do the officers and men of the
regiment, l am writing you in their
name to ask that you help in the re-
cruiting campaign the regiment is
now making.
This campaign costs money. To
raise it the regiment has enlisted the
services of Francis K Bushman and
Beverly Bayne, the famous movie
stars. They will be in Louisville May
18th to lead the ball to be given that
night at the First Kentucky Armory,
At that ball will be chosen the girl
who is to represent the State of Ken
lucky in the contest of Southern beau
ties to- be held in New Orleans

woman in the South lives somewhere

is to find her. The other is that the

with perils on every hand. We
must take our chances, or rob
life of many of its finest pleas
ures by shutting ourselves away
from all such associations as
might possibly threaten our pre-:
cious health.
Only those who have known
the rich, abiding friendship of a
dog can appreciate what this re-
tationship has meant, and means,
to ten thousand times ten thou
sand men and women. The COM
partnership that has relieved the
otherwise utter loneliness of
many a life, that has answered
the hunger of many a heart for
affection and confidence-banish
this from the world and you blot
out a wealth of happiness and
comfort from humanity that
would leave it vastly poorer.
There are two friends on
whose unfailing love man has
counted. Two friends whose
love has followed. him through
every path of crime, or shame or
aggregation, over which his way
ward feet have wandered-his
mother and his dog. We do not
for moment put these two I'M
wearying affections in the same
category, only the fact we have
have stated remains.
On the whole we believe the dog
has returned to man in devotion
and service all that man has ev-
err given him, and that, of the
two, were the dog to be >exited
from civilization, man would be
the sufferer than the dog

Cost of Boarding Hired Help.

1t costs $128 per year to board
a hired hand, according to esti-
mates furnished to the Depart
ment of Agriculture by 1000
farmers representing widely sep
arated sections in ID States. The
averages derived from the esti-
mates are embodied in Depart
ment Bulletin 4l0, recently pub
lished, entitled "Value to Farm
Families of Food, Fuel, and Use
of House."
1t was found that the total an
nual cost-p per person of board for
hired help varied from $104 in
Vermont ana Pennsylvania to
$l62 in New Jersey, and that the
percentage of this cost paid out
in cash varied from Is per cent.
in North Carolina to 40 per cent.
in California. This percentage
is about one-third in the eastern
section studied, about one.
fourth in the corn belt States,
and still less in the Southern

The UnfailinS Friend

Someone may have heard of a
dog who deserted his master, or
forsook him in his hour of need.
We never have. What the dog
is in his devotion and fidelity
man has largely made him dur
ing the innumerable generations
since the two entered into friend
ship. AS far back as we can
trace the history of man the dog
appears associated with him as a
sharer of his joys and sorrows,
his wealth and his poverty. It
would be interesting to know
how they came together; under
what circumstances they learned
to know and trust each other.
There have always been men
and women who have not liked
dogs. For these the normal man
is sorry. Thep are missing some
of life's rare and beautiful joys.
Occasionally among these who
see nothing in the dog but a pos
sibility of hydrophobia, or a car.
rier OF disease, there is one who
denounces him as a peril to our
health and loudly demands his
determination. No doubt the
dog sometimes does carry disease,
just as doctors do, and other peo-
pie who come into contact with
the sick. No doubt there are
times when it is dangerous for
children to play with dogs, as at
times it is dangerous for them to
go to Sunday School. where some
infectious malady might be con-
tracted. Our lives are beset
