PLENTY OF JOBS IN FRANCE
FOR PATRIOTIC AMERICANS

How can the middle-aged man see
service in this war and share in the
thrill of it?
How can the man who was too
young to fight in the civil war and
too old to fight in tho present con-
fiict get into the Eame?"
This question was answered by DR..
John r. Mott in Washington this
week to report to President Wilson
the result Of observations he made on
the European fronts. which he has
just visited in his capacity of general
war work secretary of the 7. NJ. c. A.
DR.. Mott points to the Y. NJ. c. A.
overseas service as place for the
man who feels that he belongs to a
skipped generations" a place as near
the front line trenches as he cares to
go, place that carries with 1t one of
the greatest opportunities for pa
triotic service that is presented to a
man too old to fight.
More than 1000 such men are on the
western front today. DR.. Mott stated.
and before September 1 there must be
5000.
A year ago the "Y" did not expect
to be running a business in France
that would do business Of $4,000. 900

Big men are needed for the personal
contact with the men as hut secre-
taries and athletic directors. All
kinds of assistants can be used, such
as accountants, warehousemen, ship
ping clerks and receiving clerks. And
in the motor transport there is a con-
slant demand for the so-called gen

own cars, drive them, and can make

AUSTRIA RELIGIONS FOE,
SLOVAK PRIESTS TOLD

Addressing a conference of Slovak
priests in session yesterday at the New
Willard Hotel, DR.. Masaryk, head of
the Czech Slovak National Council,
declared that there can be no free
religion in an autocracy such as the
Hapsburg empire.
DR.. Masaryk considers the dissolu-
ton Of the Austro-Hungarian empire
Is as necessary to real religion as it
is to political freedom. He said those
who have the interest Of the Catholic
Church at heart will favor such disso-
luton, as the present rulers of the
dual empire are misusing their power
to enslave both nationalities and the
church.
The conference today was attended
by more than thirty priests, repre-
senting Bohemians from all parts Of
the country. They are associated
with the Slovak League of America.
This league Is allied with the Bo-
hemian National Alliance. Both work
in cooperation with the Czech Slovak

MARRIAGE BY PROXY
NOT FOR THE U. S. BOYS
French Custom Held Invalid for
American Soldiers Overseas,
Say. Col. Morrow.

Marriage by proxy may be all right
for French soldiers, but. according
to Col. H. M. Morrow of the Judge
advocate generals department.. the
privilege does not extend to Uncle
Sans fighting men in France or else
where.
Marriages by proxy are not rec
ognized by our laws" the colonel
states, "and consequently It would
be Impossible for one of our soldiers
in France to be married by proxy.
Must Be in Game Place at Time.
"a valid marriage cannot be brought
to pass unless the persons are in the
same place at the same time. In
France the general doctrine has been
the same, but recently new statute
has been passed enabling French
soldiers to be married by proxy, but
this does not apply to soldiers in the
American Army"
1t thus appears that Sammy in
France desiring to marry an Ameri-
can girl must have the knot tied be-
fore he sails for foreign parts. or
wait until he returns home after the
war is over.

CHRONIC KICKER
II You Drag Around Halt Sick and
Down-and-Out All the Time,
Read This.

Some people are chronic cranks and
are always complaining about their
health Those poor souls are troubled
and honestly have tried everything.
The trouble is that they take only those
marvellous, magic, secret remedies
which employ exaggerating ad-writers
who ware about the impossible things
their preparation does.
Everyone wants to feel strong, ro-
bust, healthy and full Of pep and
ginger, but not all of us are patient
enough to give real remedy such as
the doctor would prescribe, sufficient
chance to put them back on their feet.
Just remember how long you have
been going down hill, and then re-
member that it is tn same distance
back again. Nature provides no short
cuts and it is uphill all the way
For those who want the best, the
strongest, the safest and surest rem.
edy and tonic, we recommend Hypo-
Cod. A combination of cod liver oil,
malt extract, iron, wild cherry bark,
wine, and hypophosphites. 1t is most
pleasant remedy to take and the re-
covery is steady and ofttimes even
more rapid than you might expect.
All well stocked drug stores have
this standard remedy, which for so
long has stood for real merit If yours
