CHANGE FOR MANY

In the window of the Walker Drug Co, there is displayed a double-page advertisement from current issue of a great national weekly that brings the war on the sea directly home to this section, and to the store where the advertisement appears. The proprie- tor of the store has personal interest ill the advertisement also, for it re- lates to war work that he Is doing for the Government. Furthermore, he helped pay for it-and the cost of the lad" for the single issue was $10,O00
 The advertisement asks for 50.OOO men, between 21 and 3G, for service in the new Merchant Marine. In the language of it's headline, it offers "5O,. 900 jobs at sea" to clean-cut young Americans. It states that the U s. Shipping Board will give them special training before putting them into ac- tual sea service, carrying supplies to our armies and Allies in the fighting fields of Europe. So much importance is attached to this work that men ac. cepted for 1t are exempted from a call to military duty.
 The advertisement relates further, that the Rexall Stores throughout the United States, nearly 1000 of them, have been designated by the Govern ment as enrolling stations for the U. S.

 If these enemy agents either ob. served silence in such moments or ex. pressed their regret for the losses of the allies. one could suppose that they were in sympathy with us ana that they regretted what has happened, but when they state publicly what the Bulgarian Minister stated, believe they are dangerous" .

HOLDS HIM 'INSINCERE' CALLS VIEWS
 DANGEROUS

WASHINGTON. June 15-Stephen Panaretoff, Bulgarian Minister to the United States was yesterday charged by the Serbian Minister, M. Lieubomir Iichai!ovitch, with rank hypocrisy in lis frequent expressions of sympathy and friendship for the United States.
 Widespread interest has been arous- ed in diplomatic quarters by the at tack, in view of the fact that the Unit cd States government has consistently refused to sever diplomatic relations with the smallest of Germany's allies. Comm enting on recent interview given ty Minister Panaretoff to Ameri- ,an newspapers, Minister Michailo- itch in his statement issued last night $ays:
 When Sympathy Comes
 Tt is to be noted that whenever the central powers or the allies, Bulgaria and Turkey, achieve success of any kind the Bulgarian official and unof- ficial agents in neutral or allied coun- tries immediately start expressing their sympathies for our allies and es. pecially for the United States.
 When the Bulgarian troops are re- inforcing the Saloniki front, in order to permit Of German troops from that front being shifted to the western front against the French and English and American troops, the Bulgarian official representative declares here that an attempt to send Bulgarians to the western front would cause revo. iution in his country.
 Go to SaIoniki Instead
 When, thanks to the collaboration of Bulgaria, Roumania has been crush ed and a humiliating treaty of peace imposed upon her, the Bulgarian Min ister states that the Bulgarians are indignant over the terms of the treaty of Bucharest and numerous demon strations have been recalled, because of violent demonstration staged up. on receipt of the peace terms
 Tt is quite probable that the Bul. garian division was withdrawn from Roumania, but it was in order that it should be sent to the Saloniki front against the English, French and 1tal. ians, allies of the United States, and the Bulgarian Minister urges his gov ernment that the present policy to-

And then, when you finally hook a five pound bass weighing at least three pounds and eight ounces by his own standard scales, and play him for twenty minutes against their earnest entreaties not to bring that big, ugly thing into the Eoat or else they'd jump out-you calmly ease up on the line and give him back, also his free dom, do you not? Yes, you do not!
 And when the day is spent they tell you what a gorgeous time they have had and make you promise to fetch them again, and you promise, of course lo you not? Cartoons Magazine.

WHEN WOMEN FISH

It does not serve to mellow mans disposition to take a woman or two into the boat when he goes bass fish ing. For women always want to fish, yet never could they or would they stick those horrid, nasty, wriggling angleworms on the hook.
 So, between batting their hooks and removing the perch and pumpkin seeds and straining your spine to keep the boat from turning turtle and the lines from getting snarled up, you have a most ejoyable outing, do you not? Yes, you do not! I'll run the risk of answering that question for YOU.

 Circular letter just received from the United States Civil Service Com- mission, Washington, D. G., reads as follows:
 Tn consideration of the widespread shortage of unskilled laborers, appii- cations for unskilled laborer positions may be accepted from citizens of countries allied with the United States in the present war, with the under. standing that such aliens will be en- plOyed only in the absence of citizens elegibles as provided in section 1 of Civil Service Rule 5."-Alaska Rail- road Record.
