CLAYTON BRANDON DEAD.

Our city was painfully shocked
when the news came over the wires
that Clayton Brandon son of Frank
Brandon formerly of this city had
been claimed by death while at sea
on his way to the European battle
feld-and that his body had been
buried at sea-only a few short
months ago his familiar face was
seen on our streets in the bloom of
health and the vigor of youth.
But the King of 'Terrors' has shot
the shaft which has blighted the
hopes and dreams of youthfulness
and our friend, acquaintance and
soldier boy is gone. Our heartfelt
sympathy goes out to the sorrow
ing relatives and friends.

WHAT THE WAR MEANS IN
 EUROPE TO-DAY

Miss Marie Lopez, of Brooklyn, N. Y, is one of the first group of women to go to France with the Women's Oyersea Hospitals. Trained as a nurse and an amDulance driver, she started out with the motor corps expecting to be most urgently need e in that capacity. The eXigencies of war, however, placed her in a post-operative ward of an eyacuauo hospital, and she ii now working night and day caring for wounded poilus.
 During the first day work ed with others in the ward where wounded men were undressed and washed as they came in from the field" writes Miss Lopez. "Now l am in the post operative ward. Tonight Mary Brown and l are sit ting up. Our hours are from s D. Ill. until , q. III.
 Picture us in the great long bar racks with two tiny dim lights, one at each end of the room. There are two rows of beds, all of which are occupied except for the three made vacant by deaths in the last 24 hours. They lie in crude little iron beds, and they get along with on! 50 little. Each man has his tin cup at his bedside and one of his fayorite eXclamations is A bOire! We nave water, or cold tea, Or weak lemonade sweetened with something that is not sugar to give them. Occasionally some asks for match to light his pipe. He is not able to sleep. Another may call us to turn him a gauche' or a driot.' The orderly sleeps in the same room. The other night we needed him badly so We went to his bed to waken him. Half asleep we took off his gauge protector, which he puts over his lovely, long mustache to keep t in place.
 These soldiers gre like children. Smile and they smile with you. At midnight when the stiffness is bro ken Oy some absurd request one laughs, and the laugh echoes the full length of the room. Then silence reigns again"

PARENTS WANT
 LADS RELEASED

Washington. - A circular letter issued by The Adujtant General of the Army says:
 "The large number of apphca- tions received from parents and guardians for the discharge of min ors under IS years fo age, inclosing satisfactory evidence that the sol dier is under this age,, indicates the necessity of more care on the part of recruiting officers in order to avoid unnecessary expense to the Government and annoyance to troops n the field iu the subsequent discharge of such men, and to avoid placing blot for life on the record of boy whose offense of misstate- ment of his age arises usually from patriotic desire to serve his coun- try.
 Hereafter no applicant under Ght registration age will be accepted or enlisted until he has proven to the complete satisfaction of the fe- cruiting officer that he has reached the age of IS years. The proof will be (a) birth certificate, baptisrlal record, or school certificate, Or in case Cal is not available, (b) sffi- davit oF parent or of guardian S9itl legal evidence of guardianship"
