TYPES OF WOMEN
 NEEDED FOR WAR
 SERVICE IN EUROPE

Miss Mabel Boardman, the only woman on the executive board of the American Red Cross, who has just re- turned from visit of inspection abroad, answers the question, "What sort of women workers should go to Europe?" Miss Boardman says:
 Those who are absolutely repre- sentative of the best American woman hood over there ill relief work repre- sent the whole United States to our allies and to our own soldiers. They must be women of strong character. who are able to face abnormal cOndi- tions, who possess perfect health and an infinite amount of tact. This is no adventure, but the hardest of hard work. The canteen workers, for in- stance, must be ready at any time dur ing the day or night to be on duty when troop trains are routed through.
 When woman says to me. "I want to go to France to do executive work, l feel doubtful Of her success. But when woman says, I want to go to France to do any sort of work that may be expected of mel m willing to do anything feel then that she is the material out of which a possible executive may be made. The woman workers must be able to obey orders and to work under rigid discipline.
 Many persons have wondered why we have sent American women for can teen work instead of American men who are not in the Army, or English and French women who are already over there In the first place, the roll ing canteens near the front are con- ducted by men. The canteens on the lines of communication are conducted

YOUNG WOMEN AS INTER- PREFERS FOR DRAFT
 BOARDS

Young women are being called to serve as interpreters fo rthe families of drafted men, according to state- ment of Mrs. Hastings H. Hart, presi- dent of the Congregational Woman's S Home Missionary Federation. These women are graduates of the Schauf- fer Missionary Training School in Cleveland Ohio, which trains young women of foreign birth or percentage fer social or missionary work among persons of their own nationality in this country.
 "The graduates of this school have given much of their time to local con- mittees necessitated by the war, to Red Cross work, liberty loan drives, food conservation, and many other Allied interests" said Mrs. Hart. There is scarcely a phase of Ameri' canization or social work which is not touched in some way by these young women. Most of the graduates are employed in such industrial cities as Akron, Ohio, and Pittsburgh, Pa.
 Some are welfare workers in fac. tories, some work in divisions of the Y. w. c. A., and some are concerned with young women of foreign parent age. During the last year representa- t:voc of 0O difforant natiOnalities en. rolled"

by women because it has been felt that their presence is an encouragement to the, soldiers. In the second place, French women would not be able to understand the soldiers, and neither they nor the Englishwomen would rep resent home to our men, which is the most essential thing. Again and again canteen workers told me that soldiers entering the canteen stopped in the doorway with amazement at the sight of them, and seemed deeply touched an dstrengthened by finding that American women had come so far to help.
 One of the great reasons why it is necessary to send American women abroad is the atmosphere they throw about the canteens and hospital huts. Men build houses; women make homes remember in this connection hosp;- tai ward which the women nurses had made especially homelike They had utilized every sort of receptacle for flower vases. Even Roche helmets were filled with forget -me-nots, and tin cans covered by old straw hats were used as baskets for field butter cups.
 "The greatest thing l brought back from my trip was that we must take nome to our boys over there. We can do it partly by making our letters just as full of cheerful home news and normal life as possible

UNFAIR TO WOMEN

That the resolution passed by the Council is causing a great deal of an noyance. specially at this time, is evi- denced by the many complaints heard from every quarter. To prohibit girls under twenty-one to attend dances or theatres. is unfair, in that it prohibits also the women passed that age The latter will not attend because they will be sure to give way their age, that is passed twenty-one. which they will never do; and the girls less than twen- ty-one being prohibited, leave the men without any women folks to dance with No wonder, the air is somewhat tacAy'' today all over town.

Y. F. SORRELS IS
 OUT FOR SURVEYOR

T. F. SOTrelS announces as candi- date for the Democratic nomination for surveyor of Jefferson county In making his announcement, Mir. Sor- rells issued the following statement:
 "To the Public: The theory of plane surveying is simple. but the ap- plicatior of the theory in practice is more difficult. There is much to un- derstand that you cannot learn in d year or two years. And there is d great deal of law and supreme court rulings to remember to be ia first-class surveyor. Success depends more upon training and judgment than upon knowledge of theory. You can hardly expect in college course to acquire the skill which comes from long-continued practice in the field. I have had the college training and the practice in the open field, in tangled briars. cane brakes, and frog level countries.
 Surveyors should study also the different sources of error. for field work should be a continued fight against errors. In surveying aim to save time, and expense: in practice to choose the most suitable method, and Ito know just what must be ignored and what must be eliminated. Make certain that you have surveyed the land correctly.
 q don't claim to be infallible, knowing that I am mortal. l know ilcW to survey section six correctly: gil the laws and supreme court rul l ings in regard to that section. l can i figure a square, triangle, trapezoid ;; ;traEesjuni, and & circle. What I can
