Indianapolis. Tnd.--Just because he

only twenty years old. Murphy Cutrer
of Shreveport, La, has spent 202 days
since June 5 last in jails on charges
of being draft Stacker. Cutrer has
just been released from his latest trou-
Bile after having been in the Marion
county Jail 20 days. He was first ar
rested in Fredonia, Kan. and held for
120 days, then he spent Sc days in an
other Jail on similar charges. In each
case he was able to prove he lacked
one day of being twenty-one on regis
tration day.

called into being by the harsh needs
Of war, and the censor's office itself
is the only place where training and
experience can be obtained.
The necessary qualifications are not
merely languages, and what they do is
not just to read other peoples dull let
tiers, as seems the general impression !;
1t is much more interesting than that.
There are women there who know no
tongue but their own; they have been
chosen for their judgment and their
unquestionable discretion besides their
education and general knowledge. One
would emphasize the value of judg-
ment and the opportunities for exer-
cising it; it is a question of weighing
up facts and coming to wise and rea-
sonable decisions the whole time. To
women with happy blend of imagi-
nation and common sense the work is
absorbing. at times thrilling.
1t is an experience and an educa-
ton, privilege to be part of this won
derful mechanism. even as the hum
blest cog in its wheel of progress; to
observe the details Of Its construction
and to watch 1t expand week by week.
Censor Tightens Net.
For as the war widens the censor
throws his net still further overseas,
tightening 1t until one marvels how the
German secret service agent can slip
through its manifold mesbas. Slip
through them he does and that is why
the countfy needs her daughters to
help to oatwit him.
In the women's army or navy the
average pay Of officers is 1925 to $S75,
with free quarters. They must leave
their homes, and to the woman who is
settled in London thiRis a difficulty.
But Il the London dwaNer has not the
robust health that enables her all day
to stand on her feet. though she can do

family falters at the thought of France.
let her come forward to the censorship
and stay in England. Here. as an or
binary censor or examiner of mails,
she will have responsibility. with scope
for individualit Ind the great chance
of bringing spy to book by her keen
ness in drawing close the net.

REFoREsT BARE HILLsloES
Scarcity Of Timber Moves Mining
Companies in Pennsylvania to
Take Action.

Hazelton, Pa.The scarcity Of Ium-
Der for mine pillars and other mine
uses has led to the creation of a for
estry department by several of the
large mining companies, one of
which has just reforested Bear Creek
watershed with $500 white pine and
5000 Norway spruce trees.
Thirty thousand more trees are in
process of cultivation at Hugo, Pa, in
the Panther Greek valley. When tim
Der is ready to cut in the vicinity of
the mines troublesome waits and long
hauls will be eliminated.
More timber in the anthracite region
would stop floods, add to the water
supply, reduce the drought periods
and enable the anthracite industry to
add to its output. Many thousands of
acres are available about the mines
for reforestation.

AID FROM RED CROSS
American Prisoners in Germany
Being Cared For.
Food Sent Regularly Through inter-
national Red Cross in
Switzerland.

Washington. Food is now being
sent regularly to American prisoners
in Germany by the American Red
Cross through an arrangement with
the International Red Cross in
Switzerland.
The American Red Cross Office at
Paris recently received complete list
of the 159 Americans then prisoners In
Germany. The German government
permits the Red Cross to send each
man 20 pounds of food week, in
two packages of ten pounds each.
This Red Cross service is being en-
larged and warehouse to hold food
enough for 10000 American prisoners
already is under construction near
Berne. Switzerland. It Is estimated
that at least 90 per cent Of the food
packages reach the men.
Parents, wives and relatives of our
soldiers and sailors will find 10 this
particular Red Cross service the great
est satisfaction because they have
dreaded German prison life for their
loved ones perhaps more than death
itself.
The American prisoners will be per-
mitted to write two letters and four
post cards each month, and also to
acknowledge the receipt of food pack
ages. The Red Cross food package
follows the army ration pretty closely.
and frequently fresh white bread is
included from the Red Cross bakery
in Berne.
This service is one more reason why
The American people will respond gem
erously to the next Red Cross war
fund campaign, May 20-27. when an

THE KAISER'S DREAM.

There's a rumor now current tho
strange it may seem, ,ar.
OF the German Emperor's wonderful
dream;
Being tired of war he lay down in bed,
And 'mongst other things, dreamed
that he was dead.
And in deep coffin lying in state,
With his cold waxen features frozen
with hate;
He wasn't long dead when he found
to his cost,
That his map of the next world and
passports were lost.
So leaving this earth to Heaven went
straight,
Jauntily strutting right up to the
gate;
But the lookout angel, in a voice
strong and clear,
Said, "Be-gone, Kaiser w., we don't
want you here"
"Well," thought Wilhelm, "That's
very uncivil,
Does he mean must go right straight
to the devil?"
