COUNTY ENGINEER BERRY
GONE INTO THE SERVICE.

Some time since County Engineer
F. M. Berry applied for admission to
service in the engineers corps and
last week was notified to report inn
mediately at Fort Douglas, Utah. He
will go into training for admission
to the u. S. Engineers corps as first
lieutenant. The World of last Satur-
day had the following to say of Mr..
Berry:
Mr.. Berry is one of the most pop
ular and highly respected citizens of
the Wenatchee valley. He came here
II years ago and has been practicing
his profession of civil engineer here
ever since.
He held the position of assistant
county engineer from 1906 to 1908
and was elected county engineer in
the latter year, serving four years in
that position. After devoting four
years to private practice, he was
again elected county engineer in 1912
and reelected two years later. He
was nominated for the same position
at the recent primaries having no op-
position.
Last June he made application for
appointment in the engineering corps
of the army and in August he went
to Seattle to take the examination.
He passed this successfully and re-
ceived an appointment as first lieu
tenant recently as reported in the
Daily World.

Mrs. Allison Barry, Wenatchee, was
here the first of the week comforting
with the war workers of the council
of defense in regard to the clothing
gathered up here for the relief of
the poor of Belgium. Speaking of
her recent trip to Everett to attend
the state convention of women en-
gagged in war relief work, she said
the report from Chelan county made
a great hit and showed this county to
be up near the front in work done.
Her report showing that a car load
of fruit and vegetables had been put
up by the patriotic women of Chelan
county and was ready for shipment.
She also remarked that it had been
practically decided to ship these pro-
ducts to the soldiers in France where
it is more highly priced, not only be-
cause it is better than the factory
canned stuff but because it represents
the patriotic spirit of the mothers and
daughters back home.

company of soldiers, there should be
four companies of savers.
Not only must people save that
there may be money, but they must
save so that there may be labor to
produce the goods needed by the sol
diers and sailors. England breaches
the gospel of goods and services"
That is the gospel that we in America
must learn to adapt ourselves to in
order that we may use things the
soldiers do not need, and save for
the soldiers use those things they do
need.

Gle SAM TO FEED THE SOL

Uncle Sam has mighty big prob
lem in sending food to the allies, feed
ing the United States soldiers at the
front, and at the same time have
enough food to supply the entire pop.
ulation of the United States.
The one way to solve this problem
is to induce housewives to conserve
as much food as possible. Columbia
Hardware & Furniture Co., are show.
ing their patriotism by including in
their advertising a plea for the con-
servation of food.
They are the exclusive dealers for
the Napanee Dutch kitchenet. While
the Napanee Dutch kitchenett has a
good many exclusive and very desir-
able features, the one thing most
prominently brought out in the adj
vertising of the Dutch Kitchenet, is
that 1t will reduce the wastage of
food, and that it will conserve the
energy of the housewife because. she
can do her kitchen work in from one
to two hours a day less time than
would otherwise be required. The
time saved by the use of a Napanee

LOndOn'S Jazz Bands Juzzed
"ODer Here"AS War NeUS Came
By J. w. PEGLER

Omitted States Staff Correspondent
LONDON, March 2S-With jazz
bands jazzing George Cohan's
"Over There" lounge lizards and
girls posing elaborate cigaret
holders in waxen fingers, the at
mosphere of certain London ho-
tells is thick with discords and
smoke, while British manhood is
crucially imposin a wall of human
flesh against militarism. In one
place | saw an American Jazz
band with a negro drummer, ap-
parently suffering from st. Vitus
dance and flat chested banjo play
ers who whooped it up until mid
night.
There were few officers among
the crowd which thickly peopled
the tables scattered over a red
plush carpet in wide glittering
red, gold and ivory cafe-saloon.
Most of the guests were in full
dress, mostly civilians. Most of
them were long past military age.
Here and there was the easily
recognizable male tea fighters
and many girls who were oh
viously habitues.
In the next room there was an
ever changing, wondering little
group which read the bulletin
board giving the latest news from
the front, with exclamation of sur
prise. The newsboys in the
streets were shouting Haig's COM
minique telling that the British
defenses had been driven back.
Meanwhile fifty couples under
rose-colored lights skinned the
dance floor bordered with crowd
ed tea tables while another iazz
band moaned out the Blues" In
all the restaurants and few re-
naming cafes visited there was
the usual chatter and music.
In anxious faces on the streets
and in a million households told
a different story. They reflected
the undiminished stubborn dread
at what the casualty lists may

employed in the production of all
these materials, their transportation,
and distribution.
There are not enough materials and
labor in this country to supply the
gigantic war demand, and at the same
time to provide the comforts, the lux
uries, the waste and extravaganza to
which we are accustomed under peace
conditions.
One or both of these MUST be re-
duced. The war demands can not be
cut down. To win the war, the Gov
eminent must have a first claim on
every ounce of available material and
labor in the country. The needs of
the Nation and the great cause of
humanity come FIRST.
Every man, woman, and child must
help. There is no help so small it
will not count when combined with
that of the rest of or.' hundred million
people. There is no one who can not
reduce his demands on the labor and
materials of the country to some ex-
tent and your savings are needed.
Goods and services must be provided
now. Those provided years ago, or
those going to be provided some day
in the future, are of no use in fight
ing this war, and meeting this pres
ent emergency. Prompt action must
be taken. 1t is the right, the only
thing to do, and remember, not only
are prepared to undergo indescribable
hardship, and even the loss of life
itself, for us, for our country, and for
all we hold dear. Sacrifice is not a
hardship in such noble cause.

GENERAL ADOPTION OF NEW
TIME TO OCCUR IN COLUMBIA
SUNDAY MORNING.

Adoption of the daylight saving
schedule will be general throughout
Columbia, according to all information
The Herald has been able to secure.
1t seems that the clocks will be set
ahead one hour, late Saturday night
by practically every one, SO that Sun
day morning the city will be moving
one hour ahead of the SUM- So gener-
al will be this change that there will
not be in fact any difference in the
condition of things. Trains and mails
and all such essentials will be on the
new schedule and church bells will
ring by the new time, SO it will be up
to everybody to conform to the
change
The big clock in the dome of the
Courthouse will be set ahead one hour

Jewelry Co., who has the contract for
keeping the timepiece correct. Mr..

would not stay up until two o'clock
Sunday morning the official hour for
the change, but that he would rise I'M
usually early Sunday morning and
make the change before many people
were out of their beds. So all who
are guided by the clock in setting
their watches can rely on it Saturday
night for the old time and Sunday
morning for the new time.
Ray Voss, manager of the local
Western Union office, has been in
structed to set Western Union clocks
ahead at the appointed hour.
The average householder probably
win set his watch or clock an hour
ahead when he retires Saturday night
so that he will arise Sunday morning
on the new schedule. But some may
wait until Sunday morning to do the
time swiping stunt and thus gain an
hours sleep.

Black of New London, secretary of the State Board of Health, and with the approval of Captain c. E. Simonds of Willimantic, the War Departments surgeon for the Storrs unit.
 Under these circumstances the wholesale dismissal of students at
 Storrs as citizens was obviously un- fair. Of course some of the men who were not primarily interested in ac- ademic instruction were ready to leave the unit, but they wanted to be Ihonorably discharged from the army, because they had come to Storrs with that understanding. Upon receipt of the order in question, President Charles L. Beach immediately set out for Washington and laid the whole
 matter before Brigadier General R. I.
 Rees of the general staff. As the net result of President Beach's visit to headquarters at Washington, General
 Rees has issued a new order under | date of November 23 to all local draft Iboards instructing them to complete

city on October IS, Private Calla- hans parents learned of his wounds, | as he wrote then that he was in a | hospital in France and was recover ing from a slight wound received while in active service.
 Private Callahan was drafted a year ago last September and on the 31st of March departed from thts city for Camp Devens, where he re- mained for one month. Then he went to Camp Mills, New York, from where he sailed for France in May, 1917. Previous to his entering Un- cle Sam's army, Private Callahan was employed as a meter reporter at the Bridgeport Gas Co.,, He is member of the Foresters of America and is we'll known locally, especially in ath- letfc circles. Over there, Private Callahan is a member of Company c, 1O3rd Field Signal Battery.
 MT. and Mrs. Callahan are the proud parents of another son who is 1 doing splendid work with the 102nd U. s. Infantry, 2eth Division. He is sergt. Daniel J. Callahan, who enlist ed on Sept. 12, 1917, and after spend | ing at Camp Devens but two days and Camp Mills 8 few more days, left the U. S. A. for France in the same month. Sergt. Callahan was on the 1 ship that had been turned back after she had sailed half way across the Atlantic. His parents received a letter recently that was dated Nov. ', in which he stated that ever since he | had come to France he had not re- ceived the slightest wound, although he had been in the thick of battle several times.
 Another Bridgeport boy made his ] supreme sacrifice on the battle front, according to the casualty list today. He is Sergeant Sydney Ford, whose l emergency address is given as the Iso- Iation hospital, Bridgeport, Conn. No information regarding the sergeant could be obtained at the hospital as officials at the institution declare that they do not know any one by that name. Telegrams addressed to Mrs. Ford had to bo returned to the War Department.
 Relatives of Udino Mainiero of S4 ReilIey street had been notified of the death of Private Mainiero q. few days ago, but his name appears in the cas- ualty today According to the official telegram from Washington, Private Mainiero laid down his life for his country on Oct. 24. He was very well known on the East Side and resided at his brothers home. He was a member of several Italian fraternal organizations and was an employe of the Remington Arms. He had been with the 18th Infantry Company A.
 The death of Edward J. Martin of Company H, 60th Infantry, had also been announced some time ago, al though his name is OH the casualty list today. He was killed in action on October IA, according to an oficia. . telegram received by his sister Miss Jennie Martin of 317 Myrtle avenue
 He was .29 years old and life long resident of the South End.

Stratford, Nov. 26.---A telegram
 from Washington last Tuesday in structed the commanding officer, Col Onel William F. Flynn, to discharge as citizens all members of the S. A.

Carl Alberti of Boston, a sailor who was transferred from Charleston, s. C., probably by mistake, 1nasmuch as there is no naval unit at Storrs.

 Meanwhile, however, 69 men (among them at least two from StratforO had already been discharged as citi- zens from the Storrs unit. Of this number those not registered in the draft of September P and those who could not pass the second physical ex- animation are not affected by this new order, but the others must be re- turned to Storrs by their local draft boards and their induction completed, thus enabling them to receive an hon. orable discharge from the army in stead of being sent away as civilians. Draft boards which do not act prompt
 ly in this matter will automatically deprive student soldiers of the privi-
 lege of receiving such discharge and
 the men will be left without any rec ord of their effort to join America s fighting forces.
