 Uncle Sam is refusing to draft for military service any who have industrial or commercial training and are needed more at home. Can you say that young person fighting a typewriter or pushing pen for Uncle Sam is not as patriotic as one who shoul- ders the rifle? Certainly not. Uncle Sam has already so many men for draft that he has not enough training camps to call them out. Yet he is sending ap- peals for help in his work at home. Then. too, you have the following points to consider. You are not required to enlist, and you may resign at any time. You will receive training worth thousands of dollars to you after Peace Is declared and will have the permanent recommendation that you have held a Govern ment position. The entrance sal. ary is from 5000 to $12OO per year. Can you equal them i'll any other way. considering the duty you owe your country? Young ladies and young men who are physically unfit for military ser vice have this excellent opportu- nity to serve our country and draw pay for so doing. These positions are permanent for busi- ness never gets dull with Uncle Sam. The Government has long since recognized the Tyler Commercial College as the great est institution of it's kind for preparing young people for this work. Get busy. Do your bit. Write today for free catalogue and enlist now.

WALTER c. LAME VISITS ELY.
Republican Candidate for Senate
Against T.. L. Roberts Gives In
terview TO News.


Walter g. Lamb. candidate for
the Republican nomination for the
office of IT, 5. Senator against Con-
gressman Z. r. Roberts, arrived IN
Ely yesterday. and has been busily
occupied since in meeting the voters
of White Pine county
and had the following to say regard
ing his candidacy:
II entered the campaign against
Mr.. Roberts only after studying his
record on the great war issues. I was
astounded to find that he had voted
against all the war policies of Presi-
dent Wilson and the government.
1T developed first that he voted
for the McLemore resolution, which
was designed to prevent American
citizens from travelling the high
seas on peaceful missions of COM
merce.
Secondly, he supported the Cop
per amendment, which provided that
American ships could not carry arms
and ammunition to Europe
Thirdly. he made determined
speech against war with Germany,
after we had endured every sort OF
abuse and insult from the Prussians.
Fourth. he did his best to kill the
Draft Bill, which was strongly urged
by the President and congress as
the only means Of securing an army
to combat Germany the greatest mil
itary power the world has ever
known
These four measures are called
the Great War Efforts of our gov
ernment'N and | have been unable to
understand the opposition of Mr.
Roberts to thc;r passage. Nevada in
the Civil war has' proud record OF
patriotism, and it is disgraceful that
Mr.. Roberts by his votes should ex-
pose Nevada to the possible suspi-
cion of disloyalty and lacl0 of pa
triotism.
Mr.. Lamb stated that he had re-
ceived numerous letters of congratu-
Iation and encouragement from prom
inent Nevada citizens. Among others
was one from A. Grant Miller OF
Reno. from which the following is
quoted:
'.My Dear Mr. Lamb:
81 have talked with large nuIp-
Der of people. both in Reno and out
side. of Reno. during my recent
trips and | find that Mr.. Roberts
should not be nominated, because in
this great crisis we should put only
thorough going Americans on guard
and his votes in Congress have not
been is accord with our nationadl
responsibility and safety.
I shall vote for you in the pri-
mary election and advise all my
friends to do likewise.
You are at liberty to show this
letter to any of my friends you may
meet upon your route.
Yours fraternally.
