300 WOMEN NEEDED
 BY SALVATION ARMY
Commander EvangeIine Booth Says War Relief Work
 Must Be Extended.

Commander Evangeline Bo> Tn, lead CT If the Salvation Army in the Unit ed States, has been suddenly called upon to furnish 800 additional war work women for France. The request Is contained in report just received by her from Col. William A. Barker of the Salvationist forces, whom she sent to France over year ago to es- tablish hutment and general war relief work with the American troops
 We will do all We can to fill this demand" said Commander Booth when discussing the approaching United War Work Campaign, and the need itself should impress the American public all the more with the absolute necessity for sustaining and enlarging the war relief work of the seven or ganizations, besides the noble Red Cross, now merged for drive for funds. Each is a vital cog in vast machine for human relief, and each Is indispensable, serving it's particular elements In its own way.
 "The Salvation Army was born in hardship, reared In privation and trained to every phase of human mis- cry and how to cope with It. Perhaps that accounts In some degree for the success our work has attained and for which We are thankful.
 We are of the common people, and we toll on practical basis We learn- cd the lesson of how to do 1t In the Boer war, when we stood at the side of Britain's troops and weathered 1t out to the end We have been tried by fire. and the mothers and fathers of America. as in other countries, trust the Salvation Army to do the thing they would like to do for their men If they but had the chance.

DON'T BE AVERAGE"
 MAN.

Young people must make themselves efficient and han dle their earnings properly during their productive years if they are to escape the com mon lot of being dependent in old age.
 The life insurance compa- nies have compiled figures which abundantly demonstrate these facts. Give sober con- sideration to this digest of life experience of one hundred av- craze men. At the age of six ty-five the record of these men are as follows: thirty-five are dead, one rich, four wealthy, six are self-supporting but are compelled to work for a living, fifty-four, or over half the number are dependent on chil- dren, relatives or charity. This is a sad state of affairs and on i Iy can be remedied by getting the proper kind of business training in youth.
 The average educated man gets a salary of $2,000 a year. He works forty years, making a total of $80,000 in a life time. The average day la borer gets $500 per day, three hundred days in the year, or | $900 a year. In forty years he earns S36,000. The differ 7nce, S44,000, equals the f. nancial value of an education. To acquire this earning capac- f ity requires about five months time or one hundred and fifty days in Tyler Commercial Col ilege. Divide one hundred and fifty days into S44,000 the value of an education, and you will find that each day spent in the Tyler Commercial Col i lege is worth $293 to you with out considering the satisfac- ton and pleasure of living a much more successful life.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. HHl aHlliAA
u TWO VOICES unnrnrn
HIS NORTHERN BROTHER

Just make it two, old fellow;
/ want to stand once more
Beneath the old flag with you,
AS in the days of yore;
Our fathers stood together
And fought on land and sea,
The battles fierce that made us
A nation of the free.
l whipped you down at Vicksburg,
You licked me at Bull Run;
On many a field we struggled,
When neither victory won.
You wore the gray of southland,
| wore the northern blue;
Like men we did our duty,
When screaming bullets flew.
Four years we fought like heroes;
But when the war was done
Our hands met in friendly clasp,
Our two hearts beat as one.
And now, when danger threatens,
No North, no South we know,
Once more we stand together
To fight the common foe.
My head, like yours, is frosty
Old age is creeping on;
Life's sun is lower sinking,
My day will soon be gone.
But if our country's honor
Needs once again her son,
I'm ready, too, old fellow
So get another gun!
