speaker for the land army's drive for

"You have no idea how hungry We
are over there" Miss Carey told the
audience 1--WE are not pleading for
luxuries. We are begging merely for
c1usts of bread on which to keep alive.
SIX million women and children have
died of starvation overseas, and there
arc two million and E half people still
or America to relieve this situation
\ Nou have the ships, now You must fur
n.sh the food to fill them.
The land army in America has done
wonders in establishing camps of un-
trained women farm workers and plac
ing than on farms as substitutes for
men. SO far american girls and wom-
en- who have taken up agricultural
work have proved themselves the
EQUALS OF their English and French
sisters think as the movement grows
here they Will rival them, for they
have in addition TO splendid physQues
adaptability ard elasticity, which
are sure TO bring success. They have
more initiative than the English or
French girls; they are accustomed to
Going things and to making a success Of
them, When they realize how vitality
they are needed or the farms they will
respond with their accustomed whole
heartedness, and then they viii prove
that in no country in The world can the
women surpass them in sturdiNesS and

She needs their moral and financial
The New York State Womer's Land
Army is having drive for q million
supporting members.
But aside from all patriotic reasons,
you people here in New York City have
q selfish interest III supporting the land

membership now may save YOU many
dollars next year"
John Curtis, farm bureau manager
for Westchester County, introduced
Miss Carey. and in q brief speech eX-
plained the purpose Of the land army
and the great need for its service.
Never before in the history Of Amer

there been devised plan whereby the
farmer can get an abundance of good
help when he needs It. The land army

to put more of these girls cn the

Judge Lindsey Asks
Y.W,C.A. for Pretty
Girls i'm War Work
Says Soldiers on Leave Need
Clean Companionship Of
Attractive Women

Send to France all the young,
healthy minded, healthy bodied, attrac
tive women you cam" said Judge Ben.
B. Lindsey yesterday afternoon in
speaking of the unusual opportunity
for constructive war work open TO the
y. ". G. A.
"And want to emphasize the at
tractivo,'" Judge Lindsey continued.
81 most emphatlcally disagree with the
stipulation that all women must be
twenty-five years of age in order to
go across. Pick goodly proportion
of girls from eighteen to twenty-five
and provide a sensible, human chap
erone for them. They will do more
good than any Of US realize. And I
know, for | have just returned from
England and France know the need
our boys and all boys-feel for
deccut. jolly girls like their sisters and
friends at home. and unless such com
panionship is provided for boys who
come to the cities on leave the re-
suits Will be most serious"
Judge Lindsey said the work of the
Y. ". c. A. in France, England and
in the United States cannot be too en-
Enthusiastically stressed.
But it must do more he added.
at must, through its own example,
spread the gospel of human under
standing; for the problems back of the
lines are human ones, and should be
approached as such. Our boys and
girls must have healthy and safe out
lets for the human expression of nat
ural instincts. and perhaps the great
est opportunity for accomplishing this
is through work with the women of the
various nations. This is where the
Y. W. c. A. comes in.
"The government, besides making
good fighters of our boys. is doing a
splendid work to protect their moral
ity it is working on three broad
lines; that is. through work-trainng
drill activities and rigorous discipline
through physical exercise and through
the work Of the medical department in
com mbating disease The result is the
cleanest army the world has ever
seem"
1t is the duty of our civilian organi-
cations, and particularly OF the seven
organizations uniting in this great war
work mpaign-namely the Y. NJ c..
A., the Y. ". C. A.. the National Cath
olc War Council X. Of C.), the jew
ish Welfare Board, the War Camp
Community Service, tho American
Library Association and the Salvation
Army-it is up to these to protect our
forces when they are on leave, when
they arc trying to find human conf
panionship and recreation in the cities
of England and Southern France.

New Draft Law Provisions.

Congress is considering and
will probably pass an amendment
to the present draft law, requir-
ing all young men on attaining
the age of twenty-one to register
for military service; another pro-
vision will exempt all men reg
istered. who pass the age of
thirty-one before they are called
for service. According to the
military authorities these changes
will furnish more men in Glass l
than will be required to build up
all the American army necessary
to prosecute the war.

Thrift Stamp Campaign.

The state director for the sale
of thrift stamps and war certifi-
Gates has set aside February 18th
as the day when all Arizona will
make campaign in the aid of
war savings. In addition to the
day regularly set aside to push
the sale of stamps, we have two
notable holidays in this month,
Washington's and Lincoln S
birthdays, and no more auspicious
days could be selected for this
great work of selling thrift
stamps to aid the country, to re-
new our allegience to democ-
racy established by Washington,
and perpetuated by Lincoln.

Editor Bribed.

We had intended saying some
thing this week about Engineer
F Eank Draper contemplating
getting job driving. Tatum's
dairy route, but H. R.. Mercer
tipped off our hand, and Draper
came to the office Monday after
noon bringing the editor a fine
mess of young rabbits. In these
parlous times with the high cost
of living, and so many meatless
days an editor must be little
diplomatic if he expects to get
by. and have three meals a day,
so we will say nothing about our
friend Draper at present, but
will wait until a later day when
our meat supply threatens to run
short again.

Potatoes AS Substitute.

In the matter of buying sub
stltutes with equal weight of
every purchase of flour, the gov
ernment has had under consider
alton the matter of potatoes as a
substitute temporarily, owing to
the fact that in many commune
ties there are not enough of sub
stltutes on hand to meet the
demand as originally outlined by
the federal food administrator.
80 many protests were entered
that word has been received
from Washington authorizing the
use OF potatoes temporarily until
other proper substitutes can be
laid IN, but only on the following
basis:
l. Special permission must be
obtained by the dealers from the
federal food administrator for
Arizona. Otherwise flour should
be sold only with an equal weight
OF any of the following author
lied substitutes: corn meal. corn
starch, corn flour, hominy, corn
grlts, barley flour, rice, rice flour,
oatmeal, rolled oats, buckwheat
Hour, sweet potato flour, soya
bean flour, feterita and milo
maize meals and hours.
2. Where potatoes are allowed
AS substitutes they must be sold
as flour substitute only IN the
proportion of four pounds of po-
tatoes to one pound of flour.
3. The sale of potatoes as
substitute must be discontinued
as soon as a supply of the author
lied substitutes is received.
The object of the fifty-ffty
plan is to reduce the consumption
of wheat flour so that more can
be shipped to the allies, also to
prevent the boarding or purchas-
ing Of more than reasonable sup
plies, also to compel the use of
the substitutes on the official list.
Potatoes will be withdrawn as
fast as additional substitutes be-
come available.

There seems to be a general
epidemic Of smallpox in all of
Arizona, judging by reports from
the papers over the state. The
first two cases in Winslow devel-
oped early in the week, one be-
ing the little daughter of w. G.
Kelly, and the other the little
daughter of w. E. Carver.
Neither case is very severe, but
a quarantine has been established
to ch eek the spread of the
disease.
There is one hustling little
lady at Snowflake, who is not
afraid to give her efforts to the
Red Cross. Her name is Mrs.
Elizabeth Lindsey, and recently
she went out and raised over $50
by her own efforts to buy yarn
for sweaters for the Red Cross.
1t is the earnest workers like
Mrs. Lindsey that make the Red
Cross such success, and it
would be a grand good thing if
we had more of them.

and was brought home by his
father, but he was never able to
shake off the disease. He was

Tgoop Ship Sunk.

The real meaning Of this war
is being brought home to us in
full force by a news dispatch
yesterday morning that a trans
port, loaded with 2917 U. S. sol
diers, was torpedoed by a Ger
man submarine at some point in
the war zone. The exact loss of
life has not been definitely es-
tablished, but it is known that
at least more than 1100 men
have been safely landed on the
coast of>Ireland. No official an
, nouncement has been given out
by the department, and although
hoping for more favorable news,
officials fear that the report sent
means all the others have been
lost.
When the full force of'the ter
rible loss Of American soldiers by
a Hun submarine settles down
on the people Of this country, it
will arouse them to greater ac-
tion and a more enthusiastic
demonstration of patriotism. 1t
will awake the apparently dor
mant militant spirit and it will
never lax again until the bar
barous Huns and Hessians are
exterminated from the face Of
the earth. God speed the day
when the male line Of Hohen-
zollen and the Prussian militar-
lists fall into the hands of the
American boys ''over there"
