August 12.-Neither age not de-
bility is now a bar to getting into the
SCRAP. The Red Cross Is seeking men
for service overseas who are above
and under the draft age (under GER
tain conditions) and men who have
been rejected by the draft boards.
The latter must have obvious dlsabll-
tiles. The loss of an eye or stutter
will not do. But an arm or leg OH VIII
not disoualify. Preferably volunteers
are sought who viii pay, their own ex-
penses and such may volunteer Tor
period of six months. Those who
need partial help enlist for year IL
takes about $1,000 to carry man IN
the Red Cross for six months and
$4,000 for a year. The activities en-
brace everything from volunteer
nurses and managers overseas TO
mechanics and drivers for ambulance
es. Patriots may have full partlcu-
lars from the Bureau of Personnel.
Railway Exchange Building, St Lou1s.
A campaign no sooner ends than
another commences. The primaries
over the talk has turned to the ex-
citement of two years from now. Gov
ernor Capper is being mentioned for
president. Henry Allen has num-
Der of boosters for the senatOrshlp.
W. Y Morgan is being groomed Tor
comeback at the governorshlp IN
case Allen runs for the senate
Shawnee county is going to try for
oil or gas again. The experience has
been that there is nothing doing in
that line but the lure of the derrick
is strong. South of the city geolo-
gists and ''water witch" tell that
there is mississippi sand" and that
he who sends drill to the bottom will
have riches that Harounel ROthchild
would envy. A bunch of Topeka men
are going to try. it a whack anyway
and see if another Eldorado cannot
be made out of the capital of the
state.
Now comes the news that the order
to close the filling stations for autos
on the Sabbath and after six IN the
evening did not come from the gov
eminent but was promulgated by the
automobile dealers national associa-
ton. Those on the inside say that a
large influence is being brought to
bear on the government to make the
order official. Dealers who have tried
The closing hours say that no serious
inconvenience is felt by the public
and that the move is one that con-
serves much labor and releases many
mechanics.
Following the experiment of run
ming small gasoline cars built on the
chassis of an automobile on the Lea
venworth and Topeka railroad Fort
Scott is to operate It's abandoned cleo
trio street railway in like manner
Electric railway experts say the ex-
pertinent won't work; that the unit
system of propulsion is too hard on
overhead From the experience of a
line equipped similarly in western
Kansas the statement comes that it
i.costs ter, cents ear mile to operate
one of these units, including labor,
depreciation and upkeep.
The Topeka street railway isn't GO
ing to ask for a six cent fare for a
aiie, preferring to wait until f.
government acts IN the matter. As
lhe Topeka concern is part of the Nc
Kinley syndicate, which operates the
res in Atchison and Wichita, it is
! fair to conclude that those towns will
have no raise IN rates for the time be-
ing.

Ed States Army to enroll 10000
trained nurses for service in military
hospitals at the rate of 1000 a week

nurses.
The Red Cross also is enrolling 25,-
600 young women for training as

Sneed Records Broken

During the month all mail speed
records were broken when on July
29th the mail was carried from Wash
Engton to New York in two hours and
5 minutes, flying time.
Storm flying records were estab-
Hshed when Lieuts. Edgerton, Bonsal,
and Killgore put their machines
-hro,1oh driving rain and wind storms
that practically shut out visibility,
fivng entirely by compass and making
perfect landings. On the New York
PHILADELPHIA end several flights were

They were sent to no training camps.

wool clip for 1918 the same as those
established on July 80, 1917, at At
lantic seaboard markets The gov
eminent has prior right to all or any
portion of the 1913 wool clip which
ay require at these prices Tie
,emainder viii be subject to altera-
ton for CIVILIAN purposes under the
direction of the board.
The large producers OF wool have
always been so situated that they
were able to sell their clips direct to
the manufactures pointed out. Pro
fessor Paterson. Now the govern
ment encourages small growers to
pool their wool IN minimum carload
lots of $4,000 pounds and consign
their clips, so pooled, as one account
to any approved dealer County
agents are suggested by the Govern
ment as a egitimate channel through
which the pooling can be done.
There is always an element OF
chance for dealers to make excess
profit IN handling any commodity, but
l believe the government has taken
due precaution to guard against pro-
hteering IN the wool regulations" said
Mr.. Paterson. "All books of dealers
are subject to government inspection
at any time and all profit in excess of
5 per cent. on the seasons business is
disposed Of by the government"
