1t seems that fishing will not be
permitted within 800 feet of the big
dam at the Farmers Union reservoir
above Creede this season. Hereto
fore, the very best catches have been
made just below the dam, but the
state game officials have ordered
signs posted, prohibiting fishing in
this favoritc spot. The reason is
given that the fish go up stream and
when they strike the dam they are
trapped. To fish in the holes be-
meath the dam is slaughter of the
fish.

|. M. (. A. CANVASS

The people of Nevada county are not responding to the call for Y. M. c. A. funds as they should. Everybody seems to think that so many will sub scribe that it is not necessary for anybody to subscribe much, and the result is that the county will not raise one-half of its quota, unless the sub scriptions are increased.
 People who should pay ten dollars, pay one, and those who should sub- scribe twenty-five dollars, give two dollars and half. The result is that up to date there has not been one thousand dollars raised.
 No worthier cause has ever been presented. The people are prosperous, and it is the patriotic duty of our citizens to pay the amount that has been assigned to this county.

RE-EXAMINATION OF DRAFTED MEN

New regulations have been issued by the provost marshal general of the United States, the effect of which re- quires all registered men to be re- examined, except those already in the military service.
 Beginning about December 18th, there will be sent to every registered man a long list of questions which he will be required to answer. All men who have been heretofore exempted will be required to answer them, and all discharges heretofore granted are revoked
 Friends of the enlisted men should see to it that when these questions are mailed out to the drafted men, that they are promptly sent to the men, for they only have seven days after the questions are mailed out, to answer them. After these questions are an swered, the men will be subject to call in classes, instead of by numbers as heretofore.

MANY DELEGATES PREPARE
 IDEAL CONSTITUTIONS"

Little Rock, Nov. 15.-Many mem bers of the constitutional convention which meets next Monday, have pre- pared drafts of what they term ideal constitutions, and will submit them to the convention. Among the number IS Col. Thos. Mehaffy of Little Rock, one of the strong possibilities for chairman of the convention.
 Col. Mehaffy has followed the old | constitution largely, but has added several very important sections of his own. One of these is for full equal suffrage, another will limit the power .of the legislature to tax the people. another is for constitutional prohibit ton, and still another will grant the right to cities and counties to issue bonds, to bear not more than nor cent, the people of the municipality or county first voting for the improve ment for which the bonds are to be issued. Col. Mehaffy also favors the initiative and referendum, and will incorporate in his draft, provisions to protect the educational institutions of the state.
 Col. Mehaffy claims he now has 40 pledged to support him for the presi- dency of the convention, which is far greater strength than has ever been shown by a candidate for speaker of the House, at this stage of the game and the convention and House have the same number of votes.

U. S. IS SHEET ANCHOR
FOR BRITAIN, IS CLAIM
Baron Devonport Says Nation Is De-
pending on United States for
Food Supplies.

by the Associated Press.
LONDON, May IJ.-"Great Britain is
depending on the United States Tor
food supplies. at least for the next two
months. until the harvest, Baron De-
2 Nonport says.
The food controller emphasized that
:. Great Britain's reliance was in her
4 cousins across the sea. and he pinned
the statement down with the crisp re-
/ mark that America is our sheet
anchor" He said the largest supplies
of grain and other foodstuffs We're In
4 Australia. but owing to the distance
these supplies could not be relied on.
, A ship could make several voyages to
America while making one to Aus
tralia.
Great Britain was looking to Amer
ica, said Baron Devonport, for guild
ance in the solution of the allies food
problems. and would be ready to be
guided by suggestions from Washing
ton.
Indorses Hoover's Plan.
Baron Devonport expressed hearty
concurrence in the plan of Herbert c.
Hoover for establishing control Of sup
ing foodstuffs to the allies through
controlling bodies in the entente coun-
tries. Great Britain was only awaiting
to hear what action had been taken
in the United States before instituting
measures here to insure the success OF
The plan.
The belief was expressed by Baron
Devonport that this was the only way
10 make sure of supplies and control
prices.
Discussing the much agitated sub
ject of a continuance of beer brewing,
Baron Devonport said the matter was
entirely out of his department. but that
he knew the war cabinet was seri-
ously considering the problem to de-
termine whether there should be pro-
hibition. government control or the
continuance OF manufacture as at
present. He pointed out that there
had been no grain matted since he took
control of cereals in February, and
said the supplies of malt would be ex-
hausted by November.
Sees Governmental Control.
Kennedy Jones, director of food
pated in the interview, expressed the
personal opinion that Great Britain
was drifting into governmental control
of brewing. He believed the govern
ment would regulate the sale of beer
and allocate it to sections where it
was needed by laborers In heavy work,
such as mining and munition making.
MIR. Jones declared that the country
was responding magnihcently to the
appeal for voluntary rationing. and
said that the consumption of bread
stuffs and other vital necessities had
been reduced so soon that compulsory
rationing probably would be avoided.
During the interview a high tribute
was paid to Congress in Washington.
which. 1t was said, was carrying out
legislation that had taken the British
parliament two and half years to
pass.
While the interview was in progress
an order was issued by the food min
lstry reducing the amount of sugar al
lowed to confectioners to 25 per cent
OF the amount used in 1915. The
amount previously had been reduced to
40 per cent.

WOMAN SOBS AS
VOLUNTEERS TO
FRANCE DEPART

Smiles of envy and smiles of pride,
softened with suppressed sobs and
tears, but entered into a scene made

who started for the French front on

Francis Brown, wEo are going to New

has been organized and equipped by

The smiles Of envy were from for
mer masculine school mates who wit.
messed the departure of their three
friends for the front with unconcealed
covetous looks which signified that
they too were not to go direct to the
great adventure. The smiles of pride
were from the girl friends of the three
boys, as many as 80 of them being
present to bid the volunteers goodby.
But while the youths smiled, the
adults, the parents and other relatives
Of the Honolulu boys suppressed with
difficulty their sobs and tears for they
know that the work of the ambulance
men at the battlefronts is extremely
hazardous.
One old Hawaiian lady could not
suppress her grief, and in a manner
characteristic of her race sobbed audi.
bly, as she said aloha. The boys were
composed throughout the farewell I'm.
til the Hawaiian woman sobbed out
her parting in the native language, but
her words visibly moved them near
to tears.
