CLERKS EAGER TO CHANGE
Skilled Men Get Preference
Draft Evaders Have Hopes
Blasted.

The good pay offered at the Federal
employment bureaus for healtful out
door work began to have its effect on
indoor men yesterday when more than
5000 of them applied at the labor re-
cruiting Offices In this city.
The number of applicants altogether
was estimated at 1000, and Of these
fully two-thirds stated that they were
now at work but wanted chance to
get out in the air and draw a grown
up mans wages. The great majority
were clerks and statesmen In stores
Among the others were laundrymen.
cooks, walters. janitors, telephone opera
tors, bell boys and elevator operators.
A number Of them said frankly that
their desire for employment at work
which will help to win the war was not
unmixed with a desire to get better
wages and improve their physical health
at the same time. They didn't seem to
care whether they were sent far away
from the city. Most of the younger
ones seemed anxious for places that
would give them a chance to see some
thing of the country
A number declared they woull have
applied long ago. but had been under
the impression that the Government bu-
reaus We're open only to men not EN-
ployed and that those applying would
get disagreeable work at starvation pay.

EARLY AMERICAN MONEY.

In the early days the colonists
had yer little of what We call mon
ey They traded by exchanging
and bartering goods and produce.
In Virginia, tobacco took the place
of money; in South Carolina, rice
was used in the same way, and
along the frontier, furs and skins
of wild animals were used. In the
Indian trade, leaden bullets, beads
and trinkets strung together, called
wampum, was used. When it be-
duce as money, certificates
came inconvenient to use the pro-
duce as money, certificates were
used to show ownership.
AS the need for money increased,
foreign coins, particularly those Of
Spain, came into use. An attempt
by Virginia to establish mint in
1645 failed. Massachusetts,. in 1861,
was more successful, and among its
earliest coins were shillings and
sixpences, stamped with figure of
n pine tree. Lord Baltimore estab-
lished a mint in Maryland in 1859.
Massachusetts was issuing paper
money in 1890, and he example was
soon followed by ether colonies.

OFTHE WAR

the territories Of Trieste and the
Trentino. under the government Of
Austria, but settled mostly by Hal
ians. This territory II often called
Italia Irredenta," which In the
beautiful Italian language means
"Unredeemed italy" The Italians
believe that this territory In real-
fly belongs to them and should be
under the control of the Italian
government.
There has always been great nv
airy; too. over colonial possessions
and commercial power among the
European countries. Differences
over the ownership and govern
ment Of the colonies In Africa and
Asia, as well as trade rivalry. has
caused great hostility among the
German people toward the English.
One German writer, Treitschke,
wrote, 1--WE have settled cur &C
count with France and Russia. The
last settlement, the settlement with
England, will probably be the
lengthiest and the most difficult"
So we see that for forty years,
great forces have been struggling
In Europe, forces bringing hatred
and war, and forces bringing peace.
In 1914 the ugly, black forces Of
war won out In Germany and Aus
tria and the great world war began.
But, Juniors, we must say too,
because we are 80 full OF Joy and
thankfulness that the fighting is
ended, that, after four years Of I'M
equaled cruelty and suffering, the
war is almost over; and that we all
stand ready, in a spirit OF greater
realization of the worth Of service.

A Group of Sources of Conflict
Between the Nations.

6etWecn the Natlon8-
There are several questions which
for years have been the causes OF
disagreement between the different
European nations and which have
played very important part in
the bringing on of the great war.
One Is the little territory of Al
sace-Lorraine, the two little prov
inces which are inhabited by
French people and are entirely
French in appearance and customs.
After the war of 1870-1871, Ger
many took the provinces as a part
of the price OF peace, and attempted
to stamp out everything that was
French; in other words. to Ger
mamie the people and the Gus
toms. 1t was only another crude
mistake in trying to accomplish
things by force; for Alsace and
Lorraine remained wholly French.
Many stories are told about these
loyal people of Alsace-Lorraine. -
how they would softly sing the
"Marseillaise" or honor the French
flag when they were sure no Ger
man officer was around to arrest
them for doing It.
The greatest reason that Ger
many wanted these provinces, is
because Of their great deposits of
iron ore; three-fourths of the iron
mined by Germany in 1913 came
Now that the great war is nearing
an end, perhaps the people of AL
sace-Lorraine will soon be restored
to the government of the beloved
France
To the southeast of these two
countries lie two other countries
which have about the same rela-
tionship to Italy that Alsace and
Lorraine have to France. They are

ing after Uncle Dud left, and dad
these pictures got us wanting to
do something so bad that-well, l
guess we did do things a little
wrong, but mother explained about
it to me so that's what l wanted
to tell you about.
You know Mrs. Harlow has one
of those long haired yellow cats
that's a Turk or some kind of a
heather, and Bill said yesterday
while we were gone it got one of
those little robins out in our back
yard and killed it. So that was the
same as the Huns making a raid
on us and we'd half to pay them
back.
1t was kind of hot and that cat
usually is lying under some of the
bushes out there in the tangle be-
tween our yards, so Bill and /
sneaked around until pretty soon
we saw him all right only he was
lying way over on the Harlow's
side. So we had to wiggle along
on our stomacks under the hidran-
jas and things until we got out the
close, and then we got out the
rocks we had for hand grenades,
and Bill said Fire." SO we fired,
and dad you ought to Of sen that
cat run. We ran too, just giving
him good dose, but he got in the
seller windows, SO we were going
back home again when Mrs. Har-

said what did we mean by throw
ing rocks at her angorry cat, didn't
we know ii had a pettygree, and
she surely would tell our mothers
she never wanted her Thomas to
play with us any more.
Mother was having Red Cross
meeting so we waited until tonight
to talk things over in the council
chair after Jean was in bed.
She said she didn't blame us for
throwing a few rocks at that cat
when he killed robins because
she'd like to do it herself, but that
wasn't the way Americans would
help win the war. It's Germans
that think they half to teach boys
