temporarily, at least, is not likely 10

Nevertheless. the newspapers do not
believe that the German offensive IS
ended. The Petit PaTisien thinks that
General Ludendor is preparing blow
which he expects will have prodigious
results.

BERNIE. Wednesday,, June As
bearing upon the war losses of some
German families, a statement made to-

REGIsTRATNS MUST HAVE
USEFUL JOBS BY JULY |
All Engaged in NonprOduCtive
Work viii Be Placed in
Army at Once

Amendments to the selective service
regulations received from Provost Mar
shall General Enoch H. Crowder Thurs
day by Major Joel b. Mallet. selective
service law officer for Georgia, announce
that able bodied registrants engaged in
non-productive occupations will be given
until July l to get into essential en-
Payments. After that date, regardless
of their classification, their order num-
bers will be disregarded and they Will be
held for immediate induction into mill
tary service.
All registrants who are idle will lose
their order numbers. The term idleness
will cover gamblers of all descriptions
and employees of race tracks and bucket
shops, fortune tellers, clairvoyants,
palmists and the like. Servants; eleva-
tor operators, domestic servants, theatre
cal attendants and others are classified
in non-productive occupations which are
listed as follows:
(a)-Persons engaged in the serv-
ing of food and drink, or either, in
public places, including hotels and
social clubs;
(b)-Pasenger elevator operators
and Attendants; and door men, foot
men, carriage openers and other at
tendants in clubs, hotels, stores.
apartment houses, office buildings,
and bath houses;
(c)IPersons, including ushers
and other attendants, engaged and
occupied in and in connection with
games. sports, and amusements, ex-
cepting actual performers in legiti-
mate concerts, operas or theatrical
performances;
(d)--Persons employed in domes-
tic service;
(e)-Sales clerks and other clerks
employed in stores and other mer-
camille establishments.
More Work for Women
Thus it will be seen that all who en-
ploy male servants between the ages
of 81 and 81 will be deprived of their
services; that women will take the
places of young men in stores and on
elevators; that people will become their
own chauffeurs; that theaters will have
either young boys, middle-aged men or
girls for their ushers: that the same
condition will apply to soda jerkers and
that, according to the Interpretation of
several authorities, baseball will be
shorn of it's young players.
The above listed non-productive en-
Payments is to be extended from time
to time as necessity may require to in
clude various other occupations. There
is no justification, the regulations set
forth, in postponing the call into mill
tary service of n registrant engaged in
a non-productive occupation, notwith-
standing he may have been placed in
class two, three or four on the ground
of dependency.
There is a great demand for labor
in all productive occupations and en-
ployments" the regulations say, land
especially in agriculture and other nee
essary industries. Therefore, regis
trants who have been given deferred
classification and who can engage in
some productive occupation or employ
ment without substantial financial loss
or hardship to themselves or others

PRESIDENT SMITH
ANSWERS SUMMONS
SIXTH PRESIDENT OF CHURCH
CLOSES REMARKABLE CAREER
AFTER LONG ILLNESS.
Leader in Church and Civic Affairs,
Broad In His sympathies, His
Passing viii Be Sincerely
Mourned by All creeds.

Salt Lake Clty.-Joseph Fielding
Smith, sixth president of the Church
of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,
died at 4 80 o'clock Tuesday morning,
November 10, following an Illness Of
several months duration, against
which he had made n determined fight
and had on several occasions rallied
sufficiently to permit his appearance
in public. The end came peacefully
as he lay at the official residence Of
the church president, surrounded by
members of his family and church dig
nitaries.
In the death of President Smith the
state loses one of Its best known and
most constructive leaders. Broad in
his sympathies, far-sighted In his
judgments and tolerant to a marked
degree, his passing will be mourned by
men of all creeds in Utah and in the
far-lying missions of the church to
which he had been frequent visitor.
The church loses in his death the
last of her leaders whose birth Oc-
Cured prior to the settlement of the
church in Utah. President Smith had
just passed his eightieth birthday when
the end came.
For II years and 10 days President
Smith had been the supreme head of
the Mormon church, to which he had
devoted the greater part of his life,
and for which he had endured in his
earlier days hardships almost beyond
the belief of the effete generation of
today.
During his term the church has wit
messed the greatest prosperity of its
history. More meeting houses have

been constructed in the course of his
tire previous history of the Organiza-
ton.
While President Smith is known
principally as the churchman that he
was, he leaves behind him an enviable
record as public citizen. He served
several terms in the territorial and
early state legislatures, was president
of the constitutional assembly, and
served several terms in the Salt Lake
city council, as we'll as one term in the
city of Provo.
Joseph Fielding Smith was born In
Far West, Caldwell county, Mo-, No
vember 10, 1888. He was the son Of
Hyrum Smith and Mary Fielding
Smith. His childhood days were spent
amid scenes of persecution and hard
ship, which resulted in the death of
his father and his uncle, the prophet,
Joseph Smith, June q, 1874. With his
-Tidowed mother, who left Nauvoo as
an exile in 1916; he drove an OK team
for her across the state of Iowa to
Winter Quarters, where the family
spent the winter of 1867, He was
then only 8 years of age, but while at
Winter Quarters was employed as a
herd boy, and it is said that during the
time that he was herding cattle at
Winter Quarters and after his arrival
in Salt Lake "he never lost hoof."
On the death of George Q. Cannon
in April, 1901, in California, Joseph h.
Smith acted as first counsellor to
President Snow. The latter died Oc-
tober 10, 1901.
When the first presidency Of the
church and the twelve apostles met on
October II, 1901. the first presidency
was recognized with Joseph f. Smith
as president John II. Winder as first
counsellor, and Anthem II. Lund as
second counsellor

WILSON TO ATTEND
PEACE CONFERENCE
PRESIDENT WILL HEAD THE
AMERICAN DELEGATION TO THE
VERSAILLES CONFERENCE.
Presence Of Chief Executive In France
Regarded as Necessary to obviate
Manifest Disadvantages Of
Discussion by Cable.

Washington. President Woodrow
Wilson will attend the opening SEES
sions of the peace conference. This
was announced November IS. He will
go Immediately after the converting of
the regular session of congress on De-
cember 2.
This official statement was issued
Monday night at the White House.
THE president expects to sail for
France Immediately after the opening
of the regular session of congress, for
the purpose of taking part in the dis
cussion and settlement of the main
features of the treaty of peace. 1t is
not likely that 1t will be possible for
him to remain throughout the sessions
of the formal peace conference, but his
presence at the outset is necessary In
order to obviate the manifest disad-
vantaGes of discussion by cable in de-
termining the greater outlines of the
final treaty, about which he must
necessarily be consulted. He will, of
course, be accompanied by delegates
who will sit as the representatives Of
the United States throughout the con-
ference.
1.-THE names of the delegates will be
presently announced"
How long the president will remain
abroad he himself probably can not
say now. The time for the converting
of the peace conference has not yet
been announced, but the general belief
here Is that 1t can not be assembled
before late in December at the earliest.
If such proves the case, the president
will be absent from the country for at
least Il month and probably longer.
In visiting Europe the president will
establish two precedents. He will be
the first chief executive of the United
Statets to participate in peace con-
ference for the settling of issues
growing out of war in which this
country participated, and likewise he
will be the first president to leave
North America during his term of Of
fee.
In reaching his decision to attend
the peace conference, President Will
son is understood to have been largely
influenced by representations from
Premiers Lloyd George of Great Brit
ain and Clemenceau of France and
other statesmen of the entente coun-
tries.
