Women in Britain Cut Lous.

A quarter of a million women in
England are now woyking more or less
regularly on the land, says the London
Observer. The great majority are vii
lage women who go out from their cot
tages and work for the farmers. Seven
thousand are in the new land army.
which employs women who are re-
cruited for a certain term and sends
them wherever they are required.
The women in the land army enlist
either for y or six months. In case OF
u months they receive two complete
outfits free, consisting of a dress,
corduroy breeches, strong boots, leg
gings, overalls and hat. They also get
for the year one jersey and one mack
intosh. They are given four or six
weeks free instruction at a training
center. Their pay on the farm ranges
from 50 to s. a week.
For a girl who joins the army for six
months there is no training. She goes
straight away to the land and begins
on the work requiring less skill. Serv-
ices of women enrolled in the land
army are available for timber cutting
and hay baling.

SPECIAL FIRE INSPECTORS.

Recently the Citizen made mention
of the fact that Raymond Cook of this
city, had received the appointment Of
state fire warden. This was somewhat
in error. The commission Mr.. Cook
did receive was a special commission
from State Fire Marshal l.. T. Hus-
sey, to act in the Baxter district. The
two lieutenants Of each company of
state guards have been given the same
duties, which are to investigate any
fire the cause of which is not absolut-
ely evident and in case l. w. W. men,
bers of alien enemies of any kind are
found to be connected with the affair
it is their duty to see that the mat
ter is thoroughly investigated. They
will also investigate any persons who
are believed to be engaged in unpat-
riotic actions or any strangers who in
any way arouse suspicion as to their
loyalty. They will see that all cases
are reported to higher authorities.
Lieut.. H. d. Long has also received
his appointment. They are to serve
without pay.

GRAFTON:
Columbus, Kas., July 16.-Miriam
f. Brown of EldOrs, Iowa, has filed IN
injunction suit to prevent the city Of
Baxter Springs from selling $500
worth Of water works bonds which
were voted ut q special election July
8. Mrs. Brown owns property in Bax-
ter Springs and wants the court or
der SO that she will not be compelled
to pay her part of the taxes that fol-
low the construction Of the water
works. A hearing will be held before
Judge J. N. Dunbar July 20, when evil
dencve will be taken.
The petition states that the bonds
are illegal and void for the reason
that the ordinance authorizing the
cvalling Of the election is void, because
he provisions of the section Of the
law under which the ordinance was
published were superseded and repeal
ed bya later law which does not per-
NIT cities to vote bonds to draw in
terest of more than s per cent. The
bonds issued by the city Of Baxter. are
to draw 6 per cent interest
The city council Of Baxter Springs
already has entered into q deal with
Dunn & Company Of Wichita, bond
brokers, for them to handle the bond
issue. It is unlikely the sale Of the
bonds can be made since the litigation
has been started

SERGEANT H. S. HAIGHT
MAY COME HERE TO
SPEAK
WOUNDED OVER N FRANCE
May Come to Baxter on Friday
or Saturday-Says He Would
Like to Speak in Baxter
Springs.

The drive to recruit men in the Ma
rine corps is in full swing in this dis
trict this week. Sergeant Harold s.
Haight was sent to this district to
make speeches. If Baxter Springs
wants him to come over here from
Joplin and make a speech he will come
the latter part of this week or the first
of next week.
A little biography of Sergeant
Haight is characteristic of the Ma
rines and will probably be Of interest
to Baxter people: Harold s. Haight
was born in Flint, Mich, August 10,
1889; graduated from Mihcigan Mill
tary academy and Joined the U. 5.
Marines in 1908; served two years
with the Marines in Cuba, Haiti, San
to Domingo, Mexican Ports, Panama
and other tropical countries, purchas-
ing his discharge in 1910 he returned
to the U. S. and spent several months
speaking through the eastern and cen
trail states. For two years he spent
his time in newspaper and publicity
work, etc., when he entered the COM
mercial field as salesman. When the
war began he had risen to the position
of credit manager and assistant sales
manager of one of the leading whole
sale firms of st. Paul, MINI. On the
7th of April, 1917, he resigned from
his position and enlisted again In the
Marines. He was promoted within
two months to sergeant and was sig
nal instructor and drill sergeant until
December when he was sent to France
to study signal work at the front.
Having Irish parents the Celt blood
would not let him remain inactive
while the French went over the top
on their raids on the Hun lines.
Eleven trips he made before he was
wounded. He was then sent back TO
impart to the men in the Marine
camps what he had learned in France.
Before the Third Loan he started
on a speaking tour of the east talking
of the war situation both here ana
"over there" and especially on the
work of the Marine corps. After tour
of the Eastern states he was sent west
and came from Kansas City to Joplin
during the past few days. He is now
leading the campaign through this
district for Marine recruits.
Mr.. Haight, in company with his
civilian recruiting officer, c. V. Jones,
would like to visit Baxter Springs II
they could be given q crowd: Mr..
Jones is we'll known here as the pres
ident of the Ontario Smelling COM
