BEAUT|FU[ SERVICE
 0N MEMORIAL DAY

HAYDEN, June 3.-Memorial day services were held at the tennis court on Thursday afternoon, with the Noe var band in attendance. Father Del gado offered the opening prayer. Twenty-four school girls, dressed in white and in national colors, sta eed a flag drill. This work was exceedingly well done.
 The honor roll was called while the audience stood, 137 names of soldiers now at the front or in training and one Red Cross nurse being on this honor roll, a fact of which Hayden is justly proud. Mrs. J. E. Drake then read a poem Stand By" written recently by a Hayden man.
 Address of the day was made by Rev. B. E. Dagley of the local Methodist Episcopal church who bore a tribute to the memory of the heroes of our past wars, and of appreciation for the men who are now fighting for liberty en- tirely in keeping with the American ideals of -forgetfulness and love for needy humanity. While the band played Star Spangled Banner" Joseph Whitaker, a veteran of the civil war. raised the flag from half mast to full mast and lowered it again to half mast in honor of the men who have fought and are now fighting our battles.
 Mrs. D. J. Kelley left on Friday for her home in Colorado where she will spend the summer. Mrs. Kelley will arrive home in time to spend a few days with her father prior to his leav- ing for France as an officer with the medical corp.

FISHES YAWN
(Popular Science.)

Did you ever see fish yawn? Rich ard Elmhirst, an English biologist, tells us that yawning is a common habit of cod, .saithe, cobbler, plaice and various other kinds of fish. From his description, the piscatorial yawn is very much like the human yawn, except that it is done under water He says: From numerous observa- tiOns I am led to think that this ac- tion of fishes is real yawn, and serves the true psychological purpose of a yawn-that is, flushing the brain with blood during periods of sluggish ness. The conditions conducive to yawning are a slight increase in tenn perature, and, l suppose, the accom- panying diminution of oxygen"

FORGERY CHARGED
James Fike Brought Here by
Constable COddingtOn.

James Fike, of Sand Spring, Garrett
county. is in the Oakland jail charged
with having passed bogus check for
$40 on B. F. SchroYer, OF Friendsville,
about the middle of last month.
Fike, who was tried and convicted
about two years ago for the same Of
Tense, but was paroled by the Court. is
a farmer of District No. 2. The worth
less check passed upon Mr.. Schroyer
was drawn upon Grantsyille bank and
was signed u. B. Dayis." Mr.. Davis
is large lumber mill operator in the
vicinity of Grantsville, hence it was a.
comparatively easy thing for Fike to
get away with his representations when
he stated that he had been working for
the lumberman. Two other checks,
amounting to 500 in all, are alleged to
have been passed by Fike upon Pennsyl-
vanla merchants at Uniontown which
have also proved worthless.

mines are idle, offers three reasons in
explanation:
The people do not know how serious
the situation is; the Fuel Administra-
ton force Is inadequate and the
coal-selling force has either been de-
stroyed or rendered useless. The big
gest reason is that the people do not
know. To have tided the country safe

600, 900 tons greater. All the increase
and the normal safeguard-130,0 900, 900
tons all told-must be placed in stor-
age by September.

working days. This means that, in ad-
dition to current use, 1000, 900 tons
must be stored every day. Of this the

pei III III lllo dSlC VI
This seems TO show a certain conf
dence in the working of the ancient
laws of supply and demand. May oe
these have not been repealed, but there
is general impression that they are
open to repeated amendment and are
undergoing alterations and repairs at
expert hands. 1t remains true, how
ever, that if the people demand a thing
insistently enough and keep on demand
ing it they will get it. Just as in the
case of increasing food supplies and in
the matter of speeding up war activ-
ties, it is campaign Of education that
is needed. If the household can be
convinced effectively that he must haye
coal and must order-and receive-some
of it now, the coal will be mined and
moved, somehow.
If there is such shortage of coal
cars and of other railroad equipment,
it should be possible to build more, and
build them promptly. We have been
hearing of railroad deficiencies since
last November and the Government has
had complete control OF the whole
situation since January l. Last week
it was reported that certain new equip.
ment had been ordered by Mr.. McAdoo.
Now let each unit of the buying public
rise up and demand that what cars there
are be used and that coal be mined.
The time to do it is now.

That was cheering news to the

Sir Douglas say THE Americans are

The Americans came, what there
were of them, but there were not
enough. We may be assured that the
British and French are keenly grateful
for the aid that We were able to give
them; but what thrill of pride, of
self-respect, of duty well done. would
we have felt had General Pershing been
able to offer a million American soldiers
to throw in the line against the Ger
mans!
We shall, God willing, place a million
men and more in France before we are
ready to reckon up our accounts with
the Germans; and the quicker we get
them there, the better it will be. To
everyone here at home there is open
now one glowing opportunity to help
send our legions to France. That op-
portunity is the purchase of a Liberty
bond.

The man upon whom rests directly
the burden of saving the British en-

clear eyes. He outlines comprehensive
measures to meet that danger. These
measures are of so sweeping a character
as to include England's last reserves of

special cases men of fifty five. On the
other hand, the minimum age for
