New Sphere for Women
THE war we are waging is one in
which social and Industrial readjust-
ment is the first essential to success
The peace which will follow this war
will bring with it the social and indus
trial reorganization of the world. This
readjustment for war, this reorganiza-
ton for peace, cannot be made sue
cessfully without the constructive CO.
operation of women.
These in general are my reasons
for seeking seat in the senate.
"Concretely. there are among 9th.
ers four problems which l have long
studied in Nevada, and through which
| believe ] could at this time serve
my state and nation.
"They are the development of the
land in the interests of the people, the
conservation of water. the elimination
of the long established railway dis
elimination against Nevada in freight
rates, and protection by federal agen-
cies of seasonal farm labor and its
transfer from region to region in the
interest OF both the farmer and the
laborer.
A Slip of Woman.
'ln spite of these reasons I should
not have undertaken this campaign
were / not convinced that the passage
of the federal suffrage amendment is
assured. The women of the nation
must not relax their urgent demand
for il the measure is not passed in the
senate at this session it must be re-
passed in the house next session"
Miss Martin is slip of a woman,
barely over 5 feet in height, and
weighing 120 pounds. Her hair is dark
and curly and flecked with gray. She
is AZ years old. She has a hard fight
aheaS. as she readily admits. but she
knows by experience a few things
about campaigning in Nevada.
Father Born in Wisconsin.
Her family history is part of the
history of the state. Her father, Will
liam O'Hara Martin, born in Wiscon-
sin of north OF Ireland stock, went to
Nevada in 1868 and was successfully

Lieut.. COrnWelI Tells About Rest Re-
 sort for American Soldiers at
AlX Les Rains,

Mrs. Jane E. Cornweu. cashier at the Western Union Telegraph office and whose home is at 314 Arch street is in receipt of letter from her son. First Lieut.. Clark Cornweu, an electri- cal instructor with the army in France Lieutenant Cornwell has been in France several months and has earned a seven days furlough and in a re- cent letter, dated July &, writes inter- estingIy. He writes:
 You will be surprised to learn that | am Writing this from one of the plost wonderful resources in the south ern part Of France, Ak Les Bains. 1 arrived here last night to enjoy a seven days leave which has been SIanted to me.
 Maybe you have read about this place in the papers at home It has been appointed as a place where the soldiers shall spend their leave. unless given special permission to go else- where. According to present orders soldiers doing duty over here are en- titled to seven days leave every four months, providing it doesn't interfere with their work. This is the first one l have been able to avail myself of, but nope to make up for that by haVIng such a good time on this one.
 "They put the boys in the best ho- tels and the Y. M. C. A. has a beau- tiful headquarters here where they provide everything for the fellows comfort and amusement.
 Tt does not cost a thing for your room and board and everything at the Y M. c. A. is reasonable.
 "They say they have lovely trips to different mountains and lakes around here and which I intend to take in during the week.
 T have met one or two of the boys who came over with us who are also here on their leave. MT. Kelly was one of them. He is the one who Bea- trice Herrick knows and comes from Hartford.
 T understand this was a very popu- lar place with American tourists be- fore the war. They have a street named after J. Pierpont Morgan.
 Tt seemed fine to lay in bed this morning as long as I felt like it and not have to get up until I got ready, which was about 10 o'clock to be truthful--ha ha."

VALUE OF GARBAGE.
Health Board Officials Put in Very
 Busy Month.

The monthly report of the board of health commissioners was issued today and it contains the following matter, issued by the United States food administration:
 Mrs. Housekeeper: Don't waste or burn your garbage. It is valuable.
 One ton of garbage contains suffi- cient glycerine for the explosive charge of fourteen 75 millimeter shells. Sufficient fatty acid" for the manufacture of 100 12-ounce cakes of soap. A score of other materials valuable in intuition making.
 If used as hog feed it will produce one hundred pounds of good, firm, first-quality pork.
 Can you afford to destroy these valuable products when your govern ment needs them to help win the war?
 The United States fod administra- ton urges every housewife to be watchful over what goes into the gar bage pail; to put less in and take more out But what must go into the pail should be kept separated from other household refuse so that it can be utilized either for making munitions or for hog feed.
 Do not permit broken glass, crockery, photograph needles, or other foreign substances to get into the garbage pail.
 Remember, garbage is valuable. Keep it clean!
 The welfare nurses made total of 222 examinations for commun- icab1e diseases and 183 quarantine visits. Among the cases reported were: Diphtheria IT, tuberculosis H., measles Ii, scarlet fever g. The tuberculosis nurse reports there are now 210 cases of tuberculosis, a 1 gain of eight. Eleven new cases were reported and there were three deaths 1 Now thre are 38 cases at sanatoria.

MONTDIDIER AGAIN
 IN ALLIED HANDS
Famous in History From Early
 Years of Christianity

Washington, D. C., Aug. 1O.-The National Geographic Society from it's Washington headquarters issues the following war geography bulletin on Montdidier a few miles east of Amiens:
 "Montdidier fell into enemy hands during the great German offensive of March and April, and now the Amer icans brigaded with the French, are aiding the latter in making the city untenable for the Huns.
 "This little town, whose history dates back to the first millennium of the Christian era had population of less than 5000 at the beginning of the war, but it was rich in historic as sociations. It is said to have derived it's name from the fact that Didier or Desiderius, the last of the Lombard kings, was imprisoned here in TIA by Charlemagne. It will be remembered that Charlemagne, having put aside his first wife, Desiderius' daughter took up the quarrel of Pope Adrian with the Lombard monarch, and after marching an army across the Alps
 
 capital city, Ticinum, and took the vanquished ruler back to France where he died in captivity.
 "Montdidier is attractively situated on an eminence on the banks of the river Don. It is the capital of an ar rondissement in the department of the Somme, and is g miles north of Paris by rail and 23 miles southeast of Amiens. It's chief industries before the war were tanneries and the man. ufacture of zinc-White.
 "When the tides of war finally re- cede it is probable that the three buildings in which the citizens of Montdidier took the greatest pride will be crum bling ruins. These are the Church of St. Pierre, which was built before Columbus set sail on his voyage of discovery, and which con- tains a. tomb and font of the 11th cen tury; the Church of St. Sepu!cre, a 15th-17th century edifice, and the Pa lais de Justice, formerly the city cas- tie. Tn the last named building visi- tors before the war were shown six unusually handsome Brussels tapes tries of the 17th century. These were undoubtedly removed before the Ger mans entered the city.
 'Montdidier's most famous son was Parmentier the scientist who gave impetus to the culture of the potato in France statue erected here l commemorates his gift to the nation.
 "For @ number of years this little city was governed by it's own lords, then passed under the dominion of the Counts of Creepy and Valois. Tn the 12th century it became a posses sion of the French crown, and re- ceived a charter of liberties Tn 1636 it offered a gallant and successful re- sistance to the Spanish invaders"

PRICE RAISING DEFERRED.
