MANY USES FOR S4NDBAG
Soldiers Employ II in Number of
Ways Besides What II is Off
cially Intended For.

The sandbag is one Of the most use
full pieces of military equipment found
anywhere and the soldier puts it to
manifold uses. Their official use, of
course, is to be filled with sand or clay
and built into ramparts, barbados
and trenches. Their unofficial uses are
legion.
The infantryman always uses a sand
bag for carrying and storing his ra-
tions. for patching and reinforcing
his clothing for lining and curtaining
his dugOut, for muffiing mallets and
stakes when putting up wire in No
Mans Land. They make excellent gai-
tiers, being tied on over the puttees as
a further protection against mud and
damp. They make cozy muffiers in
bad weather. They are used to cover
shrapnel helmets to prevent reflection,
and they are frequently in demand for
rifle covers.
Many soldiers always pull two sand
bags over their feet and legs when GO
ing TO bed in billets; in other words,
the sandbag is TOmmy's pajamas. The
warmth and comfort of a burlap sand
bag when pulled over chilled feet is
astonishing.
The pOStman's mailbag at the front
is nothing more than an empty sand,
bag, and the water carriers also use
two sandbags, sIung back and front
over the shoulder, each containing a
petrol tin full of water
"The war will be over" a soldier
wit once said, when all of Belgium
and France has been put into sand
bags"

Birds Finally Agreed.

A family of robins and a family of
bluebirds are occupying the same
house. something quite unusual in
bird lore, f. NJ. eastman, caretaker
of the Altoona (Pa.) reservoir, has re-
ported.
Mr.. eastman has erected a num-
Der of bird boxes on the watershed and
he watches over his charges lovingly.
When Papa and Mamma Biuebird
came north this spring they were hor-
rified to find their usual coy birdbox
was occupied. That is, a pair of rob-
ins, arriving a week earlier, had start
ed to build a nest on the tiny porch
of the house. a wordy battle started,
which lasted for several days. The
bluebirds wanted the robins to move.
The robins maintained their posi-
ton. And then, quite suddenly, hos
tilities ceased. Investigating, Mr.. Cash
man found the bluebirdS were build
ing a nest inside the box, while the
robins made themselves comfortable
on the porch. Then both mothers sat
on a nest of eggs.

LABOR

We have in Idaho, citizens and
aliens-some subject to draft, others
who are not-who are unwilling to
work for any stipulated figure if
they thought their refusal to work
would force the payment of higher
wage.
Idaho has arranged a wage seal
which is as high or higher than that
paid by any other state in the
ion for like agricultural labor. That
scale has bsen approved by the State
Council of Defense as just and reason
able. All our popers published in the
state have been provided with that
wage scale. We now most respectful
ly ask all our papers to publish that
wage scale in every issue of their
paper for the benefit of their read
ers for q period sufficiently long that
all their patrons may become fully
quainted with it. 1t is in condensed
form as follows:
For harvest hands, 800 for
day of ten hours with board, and
maximum OF 45c an hour for over
time. Monthly wage. $50 90 with
board; or for married men who board
themselves, $4,000 a month with
suitable housing. For Expert irri-
gators, $500 a month and board.
We respectfully ask all farmers
employing help to abide by that
scale that there may be no compe-
titive bidding against fellow farmers
and that the laborer may be assured
his wage and protected in obtain
ing it.

NATIONS FIGHT
ING STRENGTH TO Be
GREATLY INCREASED
PASSAGE OF NEW MAN-POWER
BILL WILL PUT MILLIONS IN
SUBJECT-TO-DRAFT- STATUS.

The nations man power bill which
has been occupying the attention of
both houses of congress for some time
and which has been held up by some
memgers of congress in goth houses
who lacked a sufficient amount of
brains or patriotism to get behind
the measure and give it speedy pas
sage, has finally passed and is law.
Several attempts were made by sena
tors and representatives to get in
Gripping amendments which would
have been hindersome to the workings
of the provisions of the law, but the
bill passed both houses of congress
practically as it started out and after
conference between both houses and
final adoption, the dates for register
ing the heaviest registration ever held
in this nation will be set.
The bill provides for the registra-
tion and being subject to draft call
and military service of all men be-
tween the ages of 18 and 40 and is in
conjunction with the present draft
law which provided for the registra-
ton of all men between the ages of
81 and 81. 1t is estimated that up
ward of thirty million men through
out the nation will be affected by the
provisions of the new law through
the fact that they will have to register
and become of draft age, an honor
which has been held only by men be-
tween the ages of 81 and 81 thus far.
1t is the intention of the army
heads to have an army of four million
American fighters in France by next
year and have one million more in
training in the camps and canton
ments in this country ready to take
the places of those who are incapaci-
tated or killed.

STATE
NORMAL IS NOW
TRAINING UNIT
WILL ASSIST IN TRAINING OF
BOYS OF THIS DISTRICT FOR
WAR SERVICE.

The war department has officially
designated Central Michigan Normal
school of Mt. Pleasant the location of
unit of the Studep..' sfmy Training
corps, to be under the direct supervi-
sion of the. war department and to
provide military training for boys of
central and northern Michigan, be-
tween the ages of Is and 81. An ar
my officer will be in charge, assisted
by five men who are now being train
ed expressly for this purpose at gov
eminent expense at Fort Sheridan.
Rifles, uniforms, overcoats and other
equipment will be provided free by
the war department.
The purpose of this special war de-
partment plan is to train boys who
have had a good preliminary educa-
tion to become eligible to enter Off
GERS training camps, and for other
specialized war service. The war
department has further planned to
supplement this training by six
weeks intensive course at a summer
camp at government expense, al
though it. is possible that new draft
regulations by congress may upset
this part of the plan so far as the old
er boys are concerned.
Central Michigan Normal school is
receiving frequent instructions from
the war department by telegram and
letters and will at any time commun-
icate the most recent information in
reply to inquiries from eligible boys
or their parents. This office has on

The Muskegon Chronicle Speaks.

"A century hence our descendants
will look back on US of this age and
wonder at the sort of creatures we
must have been to deny to our women
equal citizenship privileges, just as
we look back less than that long and
regard with a curious sort of pity for
our forebears who refused a woman
the right to practice law, medicine, to
hold property, to testify in court and
a lot of other barbarian customs that
were handed down from the stone
age. The old argument that the vote
belongs only to those who can defend
the government they estblish and
maintain by force Of arms if neces-
sary, does not count any longer in the
anti-suffragist's manual of fallacies.
Let Michigan wipe out the stain of
its double defeat of suffrage a few
years ago, and quit playing the un-
chivalrous, narrow-minded. boorish
role Of the stone age"
The above is from the Muskegon
Chronicle, and needs no palmer state
ment for justice to Michigan women.
