a sob.

When the fact that all hope was
gone finally entered Lloyd's brain, q
calm seemed to settle over him, and
rising to his knees, with his arms
stretched out to heaven, he prayed, and
all of his soul entered into the prayer.

me from this towards death. Give me

him, and he crouched and covered no
more, but calmly waited the dawn,
ready to go to his death. The shells

roar Of the guns was deafening.
Lloyd's fears came back with a rush,
and he covered on the earthen floor
with his hands over his face.
The sentry, seeing his position, came
in and tried to cheer him by talking to
him: F
Never mind them guns, boy, they
won't hurt you. They are ours. We
are giving the Boches a dose Of their

relieve you. I'll have to go now, lad.
as it's nearly time for my relief, and I
don't want them to see me a-talkin'
with you. So long, laddie, cheero."
With this, the sentry resumed the
pacing of his post. In about ten min

The world is using a tremendous
amount of trinitrotoluol, the high ex-
plosive Of this war. In fact the sup
plies of toluol. are in some danger
of running short. What the Germans
will do about it is not known, but the
allies are turning to the Canadian pulp
factories employing the sulphite proc
ess.
It appears that the turpentine from
spruce is easily saved at the mills,
and can be readily converted into
toluol.
Since a gallon of turpentine per cord
of wood is a possible by-product
and IS per barrel is paid for It, there
will be some little increase in revenue
for the pulp makers. and the armies
will be enabled to keep On with their
good work of defeating the enemy.

Aim of Canteen Service

1t is all important to show our
men by frequent and convincing ex-
preston the nations faithfulness to
them, and pride in them. 1t is our
soldiers and sailors right to receive
this assurance, and it is our privil-
eye to give IT, How can we best
give it? By welcoming them as they
come to us; by showing them how
we feel; by making them realize that
wherever they are, they're ours.
The American Red Cross canteen
service, rapidly springing into being
at every division point where troop
trains stop even short time, is voic-
ing this welcome and Godspeed to
our men as nothing else can do. No
matter what the hour or the wealth
er. when a troop train stops at 4
point where there is an American
Red Cross canteen, the women of the
unit are there with heartening
greetings and cheering refreshhents
for these fine men our ours.
Many a soldier, tired from a Jour-
ney of days in a troop train, has
looked YEARLY from the window
wondering how 1t would seem to
have some passerby stop and give
him a cordial greeting. The home
the soldier has left seems very far
away from him. When will he see
his loved ones and friends again?
He knows no one in this strange city
he now looks out on from the win
COW Of the troop train. OF the
crowds no one pays any attention
TO him. He is forgotten. He's on
his way to the training camp; he's
going out to fight for the people, to
lay down his life for them If need
be, yet not one Of them has a single
word for him.
He didn't figure on this when he
Joined up. He is thinking If only
enc out of this unfeeling crowd
would speak to him, when a woman
n the uniform Of the American Red
Cross canteen comes gaily toward
him and smiling eagerly, says "del-
10! Like some sandwiches or some
fruit? How about some post cards,
and have you plenty of smokes?"
The lonely lad in army khaki or navy
blue sits bolt upright and looks
about him. Can it be that this cor
dial greeting is for him? Then he

Weed SaWmill is
Nearly Completed

Mrs. Sherman Moorehouse and
daughter, Miss Claribel, who have
been spending the past summer in
Weed, have returned home for the
ccming winter in order that the lat
ter may fill her position as teacher
in the public schools. Mrs. Moore
house states that the Weed Lumber
company's big new mill at Weed
Cal, will be completed about Sep
lember 15.
This mill is five stories high and
will consist of four band mills hav-
ing four saws and two double edg.
ers. 1t will have capacity of 500,.
600 feet in two S-hour shifts, work.
.ns 100 men on a shift.
There is also a lath mill having
capacity of $4,000 to 10000 lath
per day. The mill is driven by Allis.
Chalmers twin Corllss engines of l..
500 horse power, running at speed
of $50 REGULATIONS per minute, and
a Kerr turbine direct connected to
$50 X. w. generator.
Later on a low pressure turbine
with a 1000 K w. generator, for
Eower and lights, will be installed
Fourteen motors are used in this
mill. Electric power is furnished by
the Weed Lumber company's elec.
trio plant and the Siskiyou Power
C Light company.
Three Sterling boilers of coo
horse power are used each fired
with sawdust by automatic feed
which goes in at the top of the
Dutch oven. These boilers have two
smoke stacks 165 feet high and rs
inche, and 60 inches in diameter.
The main driving belt from the
engine to the mill is 235 feet long
76 inches wide, made of 565 OK hides
at cost of approximately 10000
A sprinkling system for protec
y'cn from fire, is supplied with water
NV pumps which pump 1000 gallons
per minute.
All refuse is carried to a burner
which will be 1875 feet high, 40 feet
in diameter, built of iron, set on .
concrete base.
Fourteen acres of ground have
been excavated for the pond which
will hold 100000 feet or about
200 carloads of logs. All exhaust
steam is turned into the pond to pre-.
vent freezing in the winter.
The logs are brought from five
different camps, located on the
Weed-Klamath Falls railroad.

two big shoulders swing eagerly out
the window, and he says, Gee, yes" -"
To get the eloquence of these
words, the response of his heart to
her greeting, you have to hear and
see for yourself. Then you realize
what it means to him and it thrills
you through and through.
And though you see this happen
as it is happening thousands of
times right here in your own town.
The thrill always catches you. That
American Red Cross canteen wo-
mans greeting has meant to him
what no civilian ever can under
stand, His country has spoken to
him, and told him of her pride and
faith In him and he has heard. You
have looked on the birth of that
from which an army's morale is
made.
That We all care, that the whole
country is unitedly and unshakably
lehind these men of ours, Is the
message which your canteen women
are daily giving.
The secretary of war officially
recognizes the Red Cross canteen,
declaring that the Red Cross is a
tody legally authorized to render
to the army welfare aid Of divers
kinds. The order specifically men

RAILROADERS RECEIVE
INCREASE IN SALARIES

Nearly a million railroad employees
Including clerks, track laborers and
maintenance of way men, are to re-
oolve wage increases of $25 month,
.he equivalent of one dollar day
or ~ cents an hour, over the pay
they received last January l, under
g wage order issued by Director Cen
eral McAdoo. Advances are effec-
tive as of September 1.
This order adding approximately
$3.50, 100000 to the annual payroll,
.epresents the second largest aggre-
gate wage increase ever granted in
American industrial history. 1t is
supplementary to the general rail-
road wage order issued nearly four
months ago, providing for about
$500, 100000 increases.
Most of the employees covered by
the new order have made consider
ably less than 500 a month, and the
voluntary increase was decided on by
the director general after investiga-
tion by his advisory board Of rail-
way wages and working conditions.
The order specified that eight
hours is to be considered the basic
day, but overtime up to ten hours is
to be paid pro rata, with one and
one-half the regular rate for over
time past the ten hours.
Specific rules are laid down for
the promotion of employees on the
grounds of merit and seniority. 9th
or regulations forbidding dismissal
Of employees without cause, and pro-
vding for hearing on appeal resem-
| le the rules now in effect under
government civil service.
Thousands of women clerks are to
receive the same pay as men for sim
liar work.
Back pay from January 1 will be
made under the former general wage
order and the advances now granted
will be figured on top of the wage
last January /, rather than on the
pay received in the immediate past
under the general wage increase.

were much alarmed over report that
the water supply at Brunswick had
been polluted and that an epidemic OF

where there seemed to be hostility to
the government and the war.

contaminated water, many persons
were alarmed today in Tina, 10 miles

there were two strangers about 70
