Dear Editor:
am finding the navy to be
such fine place thought | would
write you few lines to put in
your paper,
Listen boys, | have been here
two weeks and have not found
anything bad about the fare
here.
We have to go to bed at 9
O'Clock and get up at 5, except
on Sundays and holidays, then
we get up at 6. We get. plenty
to eat, we have potatoes, beans,
rice, oats, beef, jam, chicken,
bread, coffee and tea, and all we
want.
| Boys, / would advise all of
you to enlist in the navy before
the army PATCHES you.
| went through Camp Taylor
while in Louisville and find
this to be a much cleaner, nicer
place than that.
carry the mail for this COM
pany, and girls | find that the
most pleasure a Jackie" has is
when he gets a letter from the
one he left behind. Whether
he knows girl or not he likes
to read a letter from her and
write one to her, so if you know
a boy in service write to him and
he will answer.
The Y. M. G. A. is sure some
fine thing for the boys in the
service, so don't fail to give a
penny every time you get a
chance.
Hoping to hear from some OF
my old friends in Tennessee
soon, | will pull off.

orchestral arrangement features FL. J..
Leake, for several years trap-drummer
and marimbaphone soloist with the
Kryl Band. The work of this versa
tile musician is one of the delights of
this eompany's entertainment.
In addition to the orchestral work of
the band, the members compose saxo-
phone sextet. The saxophone has long
been used In the military bands of Eu-
rope, notably In those Of France. 1t
is now used in orehestras and bands
of this country. Many organizations
use one or two saxophones for the mel
low effect this instrument produces,
but here are six saxophones, and six
saxonhones played conformity form a
complete musical organization, giving
effects as finished as those of q band
or orchestra or choir.

Bad Kidneys Laid Him Up.

A slight kidney impairment may lead
to dropsy or Bright's disease. Don't
neglect it. Frank Miller, Bingham,
Utah, writes: WAS troubled with my
kidneys so bad that ! could not work.
Tried many kinds of medicine which
did me no good. Then tried Foley's
Kidney Pills; now feeling as good as
ever did before. - Cooper Drug Co.

GENERAL EMBARGO
 SENDS DOWN CORN
Oats Go Up on Govern. ment and Northwest

Chicago, September 17.-As a result of the general embargo on grain shipment to western primary centers, unless stor- age room was arranged for, the corn market today showed weakness the greater part of the session. Prices closed nervous ss to 1A down with October 152A to 152ls and November 14Sss to 14SA Oats, on the contrary, gained Is to 1ads net and provisions advanced Sc to re-.
 Announcement that the railway grain embargo had been made all embracing brought about sharp break in corn values. At the same time the fact that no frost was shown on the weather map and that the forecast was for more warmth and sunshine tended to increase bearish sentiment, especially as the gov ernment had predicted that the bulk of the crop would be safe from frost by September 20. Covering by shorts led to good rally, but weakness soon de- veloped again in view of the fact that storage room in Chicago remains ample and the outlook was that arrivals here might be heavily enlarged.
 Strength in oats came for the most part from buying credited to the gov ernnnent and to the northwest.

SHARP RALLIES IN COTTON TRADING
General List Closed Steady at Net Advances of 50
 to 60 Points

New York, September 1T-Slightly early declines were followed by sharp rallies in the cotton market today on trade buying and bullish spot advances. The general list closed steady at a net advance of 50 to 60 points.
 The failure of the weather map to show any indication of the frosts predicted for the southwest and prospects for rising ternperatures led to scattering liquidation at the start. First prices were to Is poins lower, with active months selling about 10 to lT points net lower right after the call, December touching 32,60c and January S2. 4Oc But the comparatively light offerings were readily absorbed at this level and the market soon turned firmer on the appearance of buying for both domestic and foreign trade interests.
