Etomologist is
Better SchooLed
In Bees, He Says

INDIANAPOLIS, July 20.-Frank
y. Wallace, state entomologist and
chief bee inspector of Indiana, says
never again will he give advice as to
how TO handle bees without proper
clothing and bee masks nor what to
do TO keep from being stung. In
cidentally he says he probably will
not follow as closely what advice he
has given in the past.
A few days ago Mr.. Wallace was
inspecting bees on his brothers
farm in Morgan county. His broth
er was with him and has advised the
entomolOgist not to start the work
without putting on high shoes
Everything went we'll until they
reached the last hive and Mr.. Wal
lace was telling his brother that all
precautions some took were not
necessary. Just then a bee stung
Mr.. Wallace on the ankle. He look
ed down and found the top Of his
low shoes full of them. Before he
could get them out he was stung
many times and he says he made
fast time" in getting away from
the hives.
Part of the advice Mr.. Wallace al
ways had given was 10 take sharp
knife and cut off the singer left in
the flesh. similar TO cutting hairs by
shaving. He says now one cannot
do that when there are any quaint
ties OF stingers. In relating his eN-
perience the entomOlogist said:
About the only satisfaction I got
was when my brother opened his
mouth. threw back his head and be-
gan to laugh, two bees stung him on
the chin. 1 cannot prove il, but |
am sure my brother kicked that last
hive m arouse those bees"

WILSON INSISTS
 DRAFT MEASURE
 MUST BE PASSED
Intends to Put Opponents to the Measure On Record
 Before Country.

Washington, April Predetermined efforts to hasten action in congress on the administration war army brl, with it's selective draft provision, were begun today by President Will son and Secretary Baker. They take the position that further delay will endanger the war plans.
 The president discussed the situa- tion at length with the house military committee, and later called in Repre- sentatives Mann and Lenroot, the Re- publican leaders of the house. Sec retary Baker appeared twice before the house military committee, the second time at night session.
 Opposition to the draft principle, especially among house Democrats, was taken up at the cabinet meeting and afterwards it was indicated the whole influence of the administration would be concentrated on the passage of the measure. The president is understood to be determined upon forcing opponents of the general staff plant out in the open, so that the country will have an opportunity of iudging whether they are in the right. The senate military committee voted favorably today on the selective draft feature, and vii lreport the bill to- morrow.

Personnel of Staff for Paper to Be Issued by Students Announced
List of Assignments Shows Pine Bluff to Be Treated to Something Unusual n Newspaper Work
 Copies Already Being Ordered.

The issue of The Graphic to be published next Monday by the mem- bers of the senior class of the Pine Bluff High school, assisted by repre- sentatives from other classes in that institution and at the ward schools, promises to be the newsiest and most interesting issue of a newspaper is- sued here, as well as one that will attract wide and favorable attention thruout the country from newspaper trade and school publications.
 The students have organized like old-timers, and are going about their work with the vim of youth and the method of experience. The issue is to be entirely independent of the regular publication, being entirely in the hands of the students who are now soliciting orders for copies of the paper, and will deliver them only to those who subscribe especially for this issue. The Graphic is acting only as publication agent, giving what aid it's force can in directing the energies of the students, but will have no control over the circulation of the issue of May 23.
 Because of the novelty of the plan, the value of this issue as an adver- Using medium and as news publi- cation, and the cause for which the students have undertaken the work it is expected that the financial support will be liberal and encouraging. As an advertising medium this paper will be unsurpassed because it is going into thousands of homes to stay; because it will be read from "kiver to kiver" by all in the family. Each article is to be signed by the student who obtained and prepared the information, and the assignments indicate that the paper will be "chock full" of news and interesting fea- lures.
 Miss Frances Howell has been named managing editor, and will di- rect the editorial department. Doc Mccain was chosen business mana ger, and will have as his department heads Harry Mcintyre. advertising manager, and Norman Williams, circulation manager.
 Leonard Jones is to be city editor

 AT THIS SESSION
President Will Approve the Measure if Commission Is
 Provided for Therein.

Washington, April 17.-A general rivers and harbors bill, carrying 3,OO0,0O0, will be int1 oduced at the special session of congress, Chairman Small of the rivers and harbors com- mittee announced tonight.
 Decision to do so was reached after a conference between President Will son and Senator Fletcher, chairman of the commerce committee, Repre- sentative Randsell of Louisiana and Representative Small, and confer ences between the congressman and Secretary Baker.
 The president, it is learned, gave as a condition of his approval that the bill contain provision for de- partmental commission of cabinet members, to study harbors and water ways. The commission will comprise the secretaries of war, interior, agri- culture and commerce. Mir. Small said the bill more than likely will carry about the same amount as one which passed the house at the last session, but which failed in the seh- ate, and which included $6,000,000 for flood control.

 break through German lines failed, and that there had been no renewal of attacks. A previous communication describes the battle as one of the greatest in the history of the war. It is admitted that under terrific bonn bardment between the Disc and the Condo sur Aisne, the French shells severed German positions and pro- duced great equators, rending defense no longer possible. Besides the French suffering sanguinary losses, the Germans took more than 2,500 prisoners, it said.
