essential that the government have
its own bureau and that he and his
son had offered their services free In
assisting In its establishment.
When this bureau is placed In ac-
tive operation II will set n force of
experts at work classifying nearly a
thousand finger prints a day.
The finger print Is acknowledged

ration In existence. II has been
proven by this method that there Is

til even after death up TO the time

The finger print as "A means OF
Identification was discovered by
Purkenie, professor OF physiology
and pathology OF the University OF
Rreslau in 1928. II was perfected by
Sir T.. X. Henry, commissioner OF po-
lice of London.
While 1t is in use in nearly every
police department In this country, the
United States government has no bu-
reau.
The Chicago bureau is recognized
as the largest bureau In the English
speaking countries, and the second
largest in the world. 1t was estab-
lished by Captain Evans. its present
head. in January, 1881. nearly thirty
six years ago. II now has on file over
forty thousand local prints and nearly
fifteen thousand foreign finger prints.
The most mystifying crimes in the
world have been solved and the crlmi-

the world where the death penalty

TESTS
START NEXT WEEK
Lewis Cline, Clerk of County
Exemption Board. Returns
From Oklahoma City.

Lewis Cline. clerk of the Tulsa
county exemption board, returned
last night from oklahoma City where
he was in conference yesterday with
state officials regarding details for
completing the national draft.
According to Mr.. Cline there will
be no developments in the local situa-
ton until next week. Those who have
been apprised of their being drafted
from reading newspapers are directed
to await an official notice before ap-
plying to the board.
No Claims Now.
Mr.. Cline emphasized the fact that
no claims for exemption can be made
until after the claimant has under
gone a physical examination. II will
be of no avail for men to take their
tales OF woe to the exemption board
until after they have passed the
physical test
State officials notified Mr.. Cline
yesterday that he will receive the Of
ficial government list of draft num-
bers Thursday. Immediately upon re-
ceipt of this list the county exemp-
ton board will convene and issue
notices by mail to all persons whom
they wish to have appear for physica,

A list of the numbers drawn also
will be posted in the courthouse this
constituting an official notification In
case the mailed citation does not
reach its destination. II therefore de-
wolves upon the individual to ascer-
tain whether he is drawn as soon as
the Washington list is received.
Owing to the fact that five days
must intervene between the mailing
of the notice and the time set for
examination of the individual. 1t
probably will not he until the first of
next week until examinations begin.
$50 Must Appear.
Approximately $50 men will be
notified to appear before tho board,
according to Mr.. Cline. These will
be distributed over n period OF several
days. II being estimated that the
hoard can give physical examinations
at the rate of 100 men per day.
After the first day OF examination
the board will he able to determine
whether they have summoned enough

ing us good and happy, which comes
to us as message from heaven. This
is the smile Of the babe in arms. It is
as near as man gets to angels on earth
and humbles him as it sounds his soul.
But we all can smile the smile of
genuine gladness if we think and re-
member the great possibilities Of help
ing the load Of others, when we smile
: the smiles Of love and sincerity.
AS Mrs. Edwards said, We must
submerge ourselves and try to make
others happy. The long face is better
in monastery or in closet at home.
When you can't smile, do not visit
your friends and make them unhappy,
too. "A merry heart doeth good like
a medicine" and one long face can
drive peace and tranquility from a
company in very short time. All
women ought to practice smiling be-
fore mirror, so that they may trans
nit to all beholders feelings of joy
and elation.
There are people who have smiles
whose worth is above money and who
create feeling Of optimism and cour-
age. We can smile with our voices
and make more music in the world.
Let us beget the smiles which have no
cruelty and Swallow our troubles and
smile over them"

appear like q joke if the listener
would let his or her tongue run also.
One reason we have two ears and one
tongue is so that we can hear twice as
much as we tell; but most people have
the proposition backward and tell
twice as much as they have heard or

There are, it is true, many kinds Of
smiles; there is the grinning, hyena
smile Of the hypocrite and the crook,
the person who smiles in order to
mask designing intent.
Then there is the character smile,
one to make you know that the smile
is for friends and that you are well
come and the person sincere. It is
not too polite nor does it leave the be-
holder in a puzzled frame of mind.
One must not forget the smile of
the vacant minded, for there are those
who might pass unchallenged as in
telligent if the parting Of the lips did
not give a glimpse of vacuum.
There is the business smile, which
no man or woman ought mistake as
personal interest affair, but many
poor soul has been deluded into think
ing that man was interested in them
when their pocketbook was the
thought he had in mind.
There is the cruel smile, seen most
" in those who have been told vnat
they were beautiful. 1t is alluring
and at the same time heartless and
cold as blast from the north. When
this smile is used by men, usually they
put their hands deep into your pockets
and smile and smile, while they rob
you. It is a smile that is patent and
constant; no person ought to be taken
in by it. FL.
There is the lovers smile. BY it the
world is transformed, the pulse quick
ened and new possibilities created.
This smile turns earth to Eden and
causes all else to dwindle into insig-
nifcance, save the wearer of this
magic This smile goes straight home
to it's proper place and if you happen
to intercept it you feel like making an
apology for being near two people who
are so happy.
