PLESIS-TREVIS, France, April Is
Correspondence CT the Associated
Press )-Training of dogs to lead the
blind soldiers has become an import
ant institution here where thousand
of animals will eventually be pre-
pared to lead sightless soldiers The
work is Icing done under the direc-
ton of the military authorities by
amateurs who owned kennels of police
and hunting dogs before the war.
Several hundred poodles alo contin-
ually trotting about the neighborhood
and through the villages, some of them
graduate" of the big training school,
leading "poilus" who left their sight
in the trenches or on the battlefield.
This real experience puts the finishing
touch to the dogs education
The training is divided into two
periods, during the first of which the
dog learns what is called Carriage"
or road behavior. abstenance from
quarrels and resistance to temptation
to playing with other dogs, neglect of
garbage boxes and butcher shops.
Next he is taught to avoid obstacles
and how to pick his way across the
street with regard to vehicles.
Then he is turned over to a sight
less hero of the war and kept under
observation for a few days to make
sure that his training is complete.

RAIN DAMAGING CROPS
IN SOUTHWEST GEORGIA

Thomasville, Ga, May 16.-(SpeciaD
Rain and more rain is what Thomas
vile has been having for the past few
days, and while it has made the war
gardens grow almost like magic. the
gardeners are beginning to think about
the grass and weeds that will grow
also, and the work that is coming to
them to clean them out. With the
crops around the county it will be even
worse, and if the rains continue the
farmers will have big job before
them, as grass this time of the year
grows very rapidly when the soil is
wet. and the scarcity of labor will be
much felt

FOR j. S. VICTORY

Following Billy Sundays wave OF
evangelism to save Washington from
its sins, Capital churches will. in all
probability, hold a series OF prayer
meetings during the entire month OF
March. IL was learned today.
There is strong feeling through
out many Washington churches that
a series OF war meetings is necessary
here. In London. the churches are
solidly praying for an English vic
tory. In Berlin. praying for victory
has been systematized by the govern
ment. Naturally the National War
Service Commission is anxious for
Washington to hold a month Of pa
triotic religious meetings.
The matter. in the form OF reso-
luton. was submitted to the District
Federation OF Pastors, at their regu-
lar meeting in the New York Avenue
Presbyterian Church. by the Rev
Wallace Radcliffe today The resoIu-
ton was referred to a special com
mittee which viii report next Mon
day.

Telephone Valuation known.
Should Congress sanction a straight

valuation of the telephone properties

S6,IS3,932, as of December 81, 1916.

but patriotic persons are asked to

The $4,000 music dealers in the
United States are cooperating to get
the idle, or Stacker" records out of
the dusty cabinets and into service
for the soldiers.

an army that will preserve its morals,
and is on the road to victory.
The man or woman, who takes a
record, roll or sheet of music from
his or her photograph library, to give
for the use Of the men in the service
gives something that will cheer and
inspire them. Clean fun and whole
some entertainment, stirs a man tc

Music, rolls and records, can be
left with any of the committee, or, il
