erly to estimate the cost. Even
now with our large experience 1T
is possible only approximately to
estimate the cost per man OF
such a stupendous undertaking.
2, The abnormal, unlocked
for increase in the cost Of build
ings and maintenance makes the
actual expense for 1917 probably
three times in advance of the
April estimate.
In this country 500 army build
ings, costing from SIS, 900 to S.
900 each, will be erected as COM
pared with the April estimate of
200 buildings at $1,000 each. By
the end of the year $500 army
secretaries will be in the field in
stead of 1000 as estimated in
April. Buildings in France are
costing SIS, 200; to heat them
$4,000, coal costing from $4,000
to $4,000 ton.
3. The success and novelty of
our work among our American
soldiers in France won instant
favor with the French, Russian
and Italian army authorities, and
resulted in an extension of the
work to include these soldiers.
A beginning simply has been
made and the cost for this work
alone thus far has been not less
than 81, $50, 900.

SOLDIERS AND
SAILORS?

The following facts show what
has been done with SIS, 900, 900
already contributed to the War
Work Council of the Young
Mems Christian Association of
the United States by the people
OF America for it's work among
the soldiers and Sailors of the
Army and Navy.
l. When the fund was raised.
1t was estimated that one million
men would be under colors bv
the end of the year 1917. It
was announced that at least 81
OOO, OOO would finance the work
OF the Association for the men
OF the Army and Navy at home
and abroad during this period,
This estimate was based on ex-
perlence and records procured
by the Associations successful
Army and Navy work during the
Spanish-American war and the
work maintained by the Associa-
ton last year along the Mexican
border and throughout the coun-
try IN military camps; and called
for an expenditure of $500 for
each enlisted man.
AS a matter of fact 1,5OO,OO
men are now serving under the
colors and it is not unlikely that
1000, 900 will be enrolled in the
American Army and Navy before
the end of the year, thus very
greatly increasing the cost of the
work Unexpectedly thrust upon
the Association. The burden is
further added to from the fact
that there has been an unprece-
dented rise in the cost of sup
plies, labor and transportation,
both at home and overseas. In
stead of $500 per capita for L.
900, 900 men, actual experience
calls for much a larger expendi-
ture for 100000 men by the
end of 1917.
To start movement of the
magnitude and character of that
planned by the Young Mems
Christian Association for the men
in both branches of the Govern
ment's service, entailing as it
does an initial equipment for
building, motor trucks, supplies,
stationery, games, etc., of great
comparative cost, extending over
a period of several months, it
was at the outset difficult prop

STOP THE WEED TAX.

Practically the only taxes the farm
er grumbles about are his State and
county taxes. He grumbles about
them because he has to get out his
check book and pay out what he can
understand is real money. He pays the
United States taxes in increased prices
on many of the articles he buys and
he does not say word.
The weed tax is one he never con.
siders. He sees the weeds in his own
fence rows and in his neighbours pas
ture and cornheld. He watches a
whole meadow grow white with daisies
in bloom or pasture grow hazy with
Canada thistles swaying in the breeze.
He never considers that this is direct
tax he is paying Dame Nature because
he and his neighbors are careless
farmers.
The weed tax, the heaviest tax, many
neighborhoods pay, can only be stopped
by cooperation. The whole communi-
ty should be made to see that the weed
tax ought to be stopped and stopped at
once.

are justly entitled to more recognition.
While you are fully aware Of your at

of comprehension, has not found out
that you are more than an ordinary in

him different more than once, yet in
his dizziness he has failed to compre
bend the many brilliant points you
know yourself to be possessed of. So
do not kick because you are not APP

is 10 get divorce from your big head,
come down from your high perch, and
be a sensible everyday American.

mature life.
Don't let the cares OF the work-a-

and strength. Take time to be young

to rejoice with them, to read with
them, to love them.
Don't become careless in your dress.
Adorn yourself for your husband give

Don't make the mistake OF believing
that you are too handsome or to ugly
to be benefited by careful grooming
and dressing.
Don't worry. Work, do your very
