HIS MEMORY SOMEWHAT HAzY
Seattle Man Not Quite Certain Wheth-
er He Had Enlisted, but He
Was No Gutter.

Last summer, when every young
mans thoughts were on the war, a
wealthy lumberman from Seattle ar
rived In New York on business trip.
His business having been attended to,
he was a guest at dinner given one
evening by an officer in the United
States marine corps. AS the hours
and the flowing bowl passed, speeches
became more and more frequent, ev-
erybody was wrought up, and there
was no man so base as to say that he
would not go to the front for his coun-
try.
Early the next morning the Seattle
man started back home.
A few days later the officer of ma
rines received this telegram from him:
"Did l enlist that night? If so, in
struct me when and where to report"

Our Dead In France

Americans have heard and
read with great deal of salts
faction the story of how the
graves of the first three Ameri-
can soldiers to be killed in bat
tie with the enemy have been
marked and distinguished. And
yet we feel that the young men
going after them, as brave and
valiant as they, or as men may
be, and who fall in the line OF
duty, should find sepulcher
which, when peace returns, will
be means of Identification.
Our growing casualty lists in
tensiiy this feeling. What is
very likely to come will serve to
make it more penetrating. The
thought of unmarked graves in
a foreign land is poignant
enough even to overwhelm the
pyrotechnics Of oratory and the
blare of bands.
Ii will be reassuring to
thousands to know that there is
10 real occasion for such nut
ural fears. The care of the
graves is in the hands of the
grave registration bureau OF
the armV. This bureau, under
Major Pierce. is in France,
Army Post No. III. 1t has COM
plete charge of all the graves OF
men belonging 10 the American
expeditionary forces. 1t marks
them and erects crosses on
them. Cooperating with this
humane, necessary and patriotic
work, the Red Cross organiza-
ton has enlisted the talent and
service of Mrs. Maynard Ladd
an American sculptress, who
has designed a medallion 10 be
placed on each grave, either by
the United States government
or that of France, or by the Red
Cross organization. as occasion
or propriety may suggest.
To the Red Cross has been as
signed The duty Of photograph
ing all of the graves. The home
communication service of the
Red Cross is that branch of the
organization having particular
charge of the pholoaraphino
work, and to it all inquiries and

OIL MUST BE CONSERVED
Supply Is Limited Says Bulletin of
 Smithsonian Institute.

Washington, Sept. 1.-The unmined supply of petroleum now available in the United States is only about 70 barrels for each person, bulletin is- sued by the Smiths oniap Institute, says in urging the necessity for con- servation in the use Of Oil and gaso- line The bulletin says that under present conditions of mining mo- toriously high percentage of waste is involved, amounting to nearly 90 per cent of tha total resource value.
 The presence in this country of eX- tensive deposits of oil shale, it is said, removes the danger of early physical exhaustion in respect to oil but does not necessarily insure de- ferment of the period of economic ex- haustion, which is being rushed pre- maturely into the present by the cur rent wasteful use of the limited pe- troleum resources.

LEMONS WHITEM AND
 BEAUTIFY THE SKIN
Make this beauty lotion cheapIy for
 your face, neck, arms and hands.

At the cost of small jar of ordinary cold cream one can prepare full quar- ter pint of the most wonderful lemon skin softener and complexion beautifer, by squeezing the juice of two fresh lem ons into bottle containing three ounces of orchard white. Care should be taken to strain the juice through fine cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then this To- tion will keep fresh for months. Every woman knows that~lemon juice is used to bleach and remove such blemishes as freckles, sallowness and tan and is the ideal skin softener, whitener and beautifier.
 Just try it! Get three ounces of orchard white at any drug store and two lemons from the grocer and make up quarter pint of this sweetly fragrant lemon lotion and massage it daily into the face, neck, arms and hands It is marvellous to smoother rough, red hands.

 Your attention wa3 called some time ago to the preparation of fair ex- hibits ald the srgge2tion was made that, during the time when it is necss- sary to conserve food, we should not display exhibits of foods but that the displays should be pictorial instead. No extra allotment of sugar should be asked for to prepare exhibits for fairs. We have had many evidences of the effort on the par.
