Close Before
Obeying RuIe
Omdorf Says Will Protect
His Employees Refusing
To Be Examined.


The Hotel Sheldon cafe will close
unless the military rescinds the order
requiring employees Of eating places
to submit themselves for examination
for communicable diseases. The fol-
lowing notice. which, according to
manager R. Burt Orndorff. VIII be
posted at the entrances of the cafe If
it closes, is self explanatory:
This cafe is closed by the manage
ment on account Of the refusal Of our
Mattresses TO submit to a humiliating
and unnecessary examination pro
mulgated by a representative OF the
war department"
Mr.. Orndorff. who is also president
OF the hotel company, explained his
action as follows:
Justice To Employees"
Practically all Of the mattresses
Of my cafe have been employed at the
Sheldon for years. and in justice TO
these good and faithful employees, who
have the courage to stand for a prin-
ciple which they belive is right and
just, and against an order which they
know reflects on their morality and
good name, I will not attempt TO fill
their places or operate the cafe Of the
Hotel Sheldon until this obnoxious
order has been rescinded or modified.
I am going to stand pat"
Mr.. Orndorff's action is possibly the
final development Of the fight he and

eatable diseases since its inception

Sam J. BRENT, general secretary of
the FL Paso Y. n c. A. who is now
in Albuquerque supervising the United

follows:
Congratulations on the way old Ell

handsome thing, as usual I am sure,
but don't let them take a picture Of
that Liberty statue before they
change the sign on one side which
bears this terrifically wrong slogan.
United War Work Charities Surely
nobody in our splendid city looks upon
this as charity campaign

the idea that we were thinking of
them as objects of charity.

NEEDED MORE THAN EVER

New York, Nov. 11.-Dr John r.
Mott. director general Of the war
work campaign. has issued a state
ment that the long period Of demob-
ilization Of the army and the long
period which must precede demobili-
cation viii present greater need than
ever for the requested 50 percent
over subscription Of the s170,50O. 900
war work fund.
President Wilson and the war de-
partment, he said, strongly empha-
size the need for war aid work among
the troops in the period following the
cessation Of hostilities. because of the
removal Of the excitement OF war the
greater leisure the troops will have
and consequently the greater temp
tations which will be placed in their
path.

for 100000 boys to get back Of 1000
600 soldiers. This was the nucleus for
forming the Victory Boys and Victory
Girls"
To Earn What They Gave.
The speaker made it plain that these

were going to get $50. Ehey replied.
why, father, you mentioned that the
barn roof needed repairs. and that II
would cost at least $40. 50 we are go
ing to repair the roof and you can pay
US the $780, Now if three girls in Kan
sas can repair a barn roof to help the
war fund, what can we expect from
the boys and girls in FL Paso."
