DDS for decreasing the evil include:
Making yenereal diseases reportable
as is done with smallpox, diphtheria
and other communicable diseases. The
name Of the patient need not be dis
closed, but he or she should be forced
to take the necessary treatment.
Strict enforcement Of all liquor and
anti-yice laws Every patriotic clti-
ron ehould demand that the local
authorities do their full duty in this
respect.
Provision for the internment and
treatment of persons who are perma-
nent sources Of infection-such as
prostitute"
Establishment of disrensares where
treatment can be given, and medicine
such as salvarsan, distributed, if need
be- free Of charge
The above are direct methods Of
decreasing disease An educational
campaign is equally necessary. The
public, especially young people should
be instructed in the real and terrible
danger from yenereal disease. Pro-
vision should be made in cities visit
oi by our soldiers for clean amuse-
ments and entertainment The fact
should be emphasized that every man
who has intercourse with a prostitute
runs the risk Of contracting a disease
which may blast his whole life. There
Is no such thing as a trivial case of

600, 900 officers and employees of the
railroads, that they shall remember
their manners. In the course Of his
appeal for more ready courtesy and
helpfulness on the part of the rail-
way staff, he says:
For many years it was popularity
believed that the public be. damned
policy was the policy Of the railroads
under private control. Such a policy
is indefensible under either private
or government control. 1t would be
particularly indefensible under pub
lie control when railroad employees
are the direct servants Of the public.
There are many people who for

McAdoo, swish government operation

employe who is discourteous to the

ments of the kind / have described, is
helping these partisan or selfish in
terests to discredit government con-
troll of railroads."
In this language he confirms the
reports that have been rife in Wash
ington for months past-that a con.
tinuous campaign of sabotage against
government operation has been car
ried on by the enemies of that policy
throughout the country, wherever
they were in railroad employ or were
in touch with employees who could be
made to aid their plans. McAdoo has
been fighting this influence quietly.
Now he fights it openly.

EXHAUST CLASS ONE .s.~.
THROUGHOUT U. S.

According to the report for the
month of August issued by Provost
Marshal General Crowder, Glass /
men of the original draft list in the
nation are practically all in service
and the September calls will take all
the remaining available men in this
class.
The report shows that but
216,570 men still remain in Class
I in the entire country, and the
statement is made that these will
be necessary to fill the new quo
ia called, so that the registra-
ton boards of the nation are
urged to use. all possible speed
in classifying registrants who are
listed on September IL.
The provost marshaPs report shows
that 9,586,5O8 men registered in the
first draft call, June 5, 1917; the first
deduction from June S to Dec. Is,
1917, took 863, 195 Of these. question
naires were filed by 8,723,313 men on
Dec. Is, 1917, and the second deduc-
ton, or deferred classification, took
6,322,912 from this list.
The total number of men placed in
Class 1 on Dec. Is, 1917, was 2,4O0,-
401; the third deduction from Dec. Is,
1917, to Navy 1, 1918, 1,344,49S.
The fourth deduction from May !,
to August 1 of this year took a total
of 1,253,613, leaving the balance of
Class 1 available for service Aug.
1, 1918, totalling 90,8S5.
Added to these figures the estimat-
ed probable addition to Glass 1 men
from correction of classification is
$4,000; the addition of Porto Ricans
not listed in the above, $4,000; full
service Glass 1 men estimated to be
added from the second registration
on June 5, 1918, $4,000, leaving a
total of 580,885 men estimated as
available August 1.
The calls of August, reflections and
other reflections from this number
are placed at 365,315 men, leaving
only 216,570 Glass 1 men available
for general service on September 1.
The report is a comprehensive one
and shows how rapidly the United
States has prepared it's man power
for service in the world war.

ANTELOPE FARMER HURT
WHEN TEAM RUNS AWAY

Winn Clark, who lives about mile
from Antelope, while driving to his
farm with a tank load of gasoline or
kerosene oil from town, was thrown
from his seat and run over when his
horses became frightened and ran
away late last week. DIR. Steele was
called on the case and found that Mr..
Clark's ribs were fractured and he
was quite badly bruised up. At the
present writing, however, we are
glad to report that Clark is getting
along nicely.

CHRISTIANIA, Norway, Jan. o.
Correspondence OF The Associated

OF the court, "the objects and methods

which come to Scandinavian ports, re-

The following Is summary of one

best source is ship captain, but they
are difficult to obtain. The younger

are not high. But If neither Of these

maintaining a good connection with
