BOYS COME TO RESCUE
Voluntarily Accept Reduced Pay as
Guards to Avert Closing Of
Bathing Beach.

Patriotic action on the part Of
Washington High School boys en-
ployed as guards at the municipal
bathing beach has prevented the clos
ing of the beach for lack of funds.
This institution was to have sus-
pended activities tonight as a result
of the District bill being deadlocked
in Congress and the continuing reso-
luton providing insufficient funds for
its maintenance. Yesterday afternoon
the guards. who are members of the
Central High and Mckinley Manual
Training School swimming teams, de-
cided they would work for so cents a
day until the District bill Is passed.
They have been receiving $3.50 a day.
Their action was prompted primarily
by the desire to secure the health
benefits from swimming to the chill
dren of Washington. although adults
Will be benefited equally by their
unselfish services. The District Com
and F. J. Drummer, director
OF swimming, were enthusiastic in
their praise of the Loyalty of the boys,

The Tired Harvester

went from town, on joyful
feet, to help the farmers harvest
wheat. My breast was full of
loyal fire; / said, mo man
should paw a Tyre, or monkey
with a fountain pen, when farm
ers> call for working men. I'll
show these grangers which is
which; they'll marvel when the
sheaves I pitch; they'll wonder
how an urban pote can do such
stunts with wheat and oat." At
sunrise, then, l started in, to
labor, with a cheerful grin. The
farmers watched my trail of
smoke and smiled as though
they saw some joke. At 8
o'clock I'd lost some pep; l
moved along with dragging
step; my joints began to groan
and crack, had nine stitches in
my back. At 9 o'clock my brain
went bum; I yelled in wild de-
lirium; I thought that I was on
the rack, such shooting pains
ran up my back; l called in
those around, in vain, to take an
ak and end my pain. At 10
o'clock l left the field, my head
on fire, my feet CONCEALED. On
hands and knees l crawled away,
and asked the farmer for my
pay. "You guys from town." he
coldly said, "aren't worth your
share of wartime bread. l want
no more silk-shirted gents; here
is your pay, just sixty cents"

Fifty thousand vorces-What a
grand chorus! And that's the number
of American men and women, who are
publicly praising Doan's Kidney Pills
for relief from backache, kidney and
bladder ills. They say it to friends.
They tell it in the home papers. Wau-

Here's a Wauseon case:
Mrs. L. A. Buchanan, 218 E. Chest

1 had terrible backaches. There was
a dull pain in my back and when I
bent over to tie my shoes, it became
sharp and felt as though someone
were sticking a knife into my back.
When doing my washing 1 was
bothered with the sharp pains and
when 1 stopped 1 could hardly
straighten. My kidneys didn't act as
they should and caused me distress.
Mornings I was completely tired out
and during the day 1 had headaches
and dizzy spells. 1 got Doan's Kidney
Pills at Fink & Haumesser's Drug
Store and they strengthened my kid

which he used to put off until the time

repair the barns, cut next summers

and do all the other odd jobs which
will make him ready to take his place
at the post as 500 as Nature blows

He can market all of his surplus

Hawaii, Porto Rico, and Guam are
trying to do their part for the food
supply. Through its experiment sta
tions in these possessions the United
States Department of Agriculture
early in the emergency started cam
paigns to increase food production. To
make the territories less dependent
upon the mainland of this country for
their supplies is the aim of the Fed
eral workers. Important results al
ready have been obtained.
Porto Rico, which formerly import
ed more than 100000 worth of beans
annually from the mainland, now is
in a position to export this product,
The Alaskan stations have greatly
increased the areas sown to grains
and now are able to meet increased
demands for seed grains locally
adapted. The Guam station is dis.
tributing larger quantities of seed:
and plants for cultivation by the ma
tives, with prospects of an increased
production of food. Hawaii also has
materially increased its production O
food crops. Before the war Hawai-
and Porto Rico imported some $40,
600, 900 worth of food supplies iron
this country annually. Many Of tn
articles imported can be grown sue
