TOO MUCH PRIMPING
BY KANSAS GOODS;
URGE UNIFORM DRESS

Manhattan, Kan, Feb. ga uni
form dress for college girls would do
away with much so-called primping,
points out Miss Emma Fecht, instruc-
tor in domestic art in the Kansas State
Agi cultural ---ege.
LAS uniform dresses are usually
simple it takes less time to make and
care for them and put them on said
Miss Fecht. This would give the girls
more time for things requiring really
necessary care.
Some important advantages can be
mentioned in favor of uniform dress.
1t goes to establish oneness, 3
democracy among students in that
clothes have become an important
item in setting girls aloof from one
another.
Dress a False Standard.
From the financial standpoint it
encourages students to attend school
who are now barred by false stand
ard. Instead of the ideal educational
standard, tn false standard of good
clothes slips in. A uniform dress
means a fewer number of garments.
AS a rule better and more durable
goods are required and this means
less expense.
"A uniform should be selected
which is not extreme in color or line,
and which would harmonic with 9TH
er garments such as hats and shoes
caste, in that any one in a uniform
which is worn for a noble purpose, is
| ennobled."

INFORMATION OF INTEREST
TO THOSE OF MILITARY ACE

The following information
was obtained from the Adjutant
Generals Office, Portland and is
authentic.
Continued from last week.
Immediately, each local board
will post a list OF the men who
must respond to this first call
for mobilization. At the same
time each board will send mail
notices to each of these men. di-
lrecting him when and where to
report.
Failure to receive this mail
notice, however, will not be an
excuse for failure to report.
From the time specified by the
local boards for the men to re-
port, they will be in the military
service of the United States and
subject to the orders of the mill
tary authorities.
Lincoln County leader. [volume] (Toledo, Lincoln County, Or.) 1893-1987, 1917-08-31

After the men nave reported
at the point designated by their
respective local exemption
boards, they will be fed and
provided with sleeping accomo-
dations by the boards, at the ex-
pense of the Federal Govern
ment. ?
They will be subject to the or
ders of their board until they are
actually entrained for the mo-
bilization camp. Disobedience
will be punishable as severely as
disobedience to the orders of a
military officer.
So far as possible they will not
be called to assemble more than
"A hours prior to the time set by
the local board for their entrain-
ment. Transportation will be
provided by the board.
If any men notified to report
do not appear for duty, or it ap-
pears that they have absconded
or wilfully failed to report the
local board is directed by the
regulations ito call upon the po-
lice to arrest them as deserters
from the Army and to deliver
them to nearest military station
as prisoners"
Before the men take train for
the mobilization camp, the loca,
board Is directed to designate
one of them, preferably the one
best fitted for 1t by reason of his
age, experience and character,
to take charge of the party until
they arrive at the mobilization
camp. He in turn will appoint
another of the drafted. men to
act as his second in command.
The men must obey the order of
these temporary officers.
The foregoing procedure will
be followed by the local boards
in the mobilization of each of the
four installments of the first
draft quota.
1t will mean much work for
the local boards, and much res
possibility for them and for the
men called. But if every drafted
man, and every citizen, will CO.
operate patriotically with the
boards in aiding them to do their
duty, the task can be accom-
lished with the speed and eff
cheney that is so essential.
Failure to appear for duty will
become equivalent to deserving
from the army. Men who desert
from Uncle Sans army in time
OF war are not treated very kind
ly. They are classed in the same
category as traitors. Such men
will be hunted down by the mill
tary authorities. and they either
will be compelled to serve or
court martialed as deserters. In
time OF war a court martial can
inflict the death penalty for de-
sertion.

1T CONCERNS ALL

The man, woman or minor
who is not concerned as to the
outcome Of the present strug-
gle is to be pitied and enlighteu-
ed. He or she is really uncon-
cerned through ignorance. They
have failed entirely to grasp the
true inwardness of the situation
Let us suppose that the his
tory of our country were to end
with the present generation.
Does any one imagine that our
statesmen would be materially
interested in the settlement of
the questions in dispute? Hard
ly.
Naturally, then, it is mainly
the future Of the country that
is to be considered. What that
future is to be will depend upon
our action now.
1t is to the credit of the Amer
ican people that they have al
ways had a clear vision of the
duty of the present generation
to posterity. That vision was re .
sponsible for the Revolutionary
war. 1t was the stimulus in the
war of 1912. And when the Mexi-
can question assumed grave
proportions the same thought
was at the fore in the national
mind. Not so much the inter-
est of our posterity as that of
our fellow man was the stimu-
lus in the brush with Spain.
But throughout her Whole life
this country has never failed to
place the true interests of pos
terity before present ease and
comfort.
What can be said. then, O..
the young man or women who is
not concerned over the outcome
of this struggle? That they
have no concern for the best in
terests Of their own. Present
ease and comfort weighs more
with them than the future of
their children, or of .he race in
general.
No nation of people can ever
come iHto their own until pres
.ent can be subordinated to fu-
.ture. No present is ever entire
ly what it should or could be. Ply
the sacrifice of the present we
stand a chance OF realizing on
the future. If all else is to be
subordinated to the present,
there is every possibility of there
being no future worthy of the
name.
