Reaction Of the War on Human Senses

FOR sneaking enemies. In some SER
penis the vestiges OF such a hind
eye are particularly plain.
one of the senses that has been
long growing dim in man is that of
smell which seems to have been
among the very first developed in
lower organisms. The earlier cere-
bral stimuli, it is believed, were
chemical and such would be sup
piled through the olfactory sense. 1t
is well known that the lower ami
mails depend 10 an extraordinary
degree upon the sense of smell. al

The stories told los soldiers OF the
detective feats performed by dogs,
pigs, cats. geese. birds and even IN
sects along the west battle front are
doubtless substantially true. 1t is
averred that these animals often give
warning of the approach of aero
planes and of trench raiders before
the slightest indication Of what is
coming reaches the senses OF the
human watchers.
Eliminating the element of con-
scious service which the soldiers
naturally ascribe % their pets, there
is, in all this. nothing incredible,
improbable or contrary 70 what we
know about the acuteness of animal
senses. Even the assertion that some
of these instructive sentinels possess
the power of sensing" the secret
gathering of the enemys forces long
before an attack is launched, is
quite within the limits of belief.
1t is in accord with what has been
observed hundreds of times Of the
revelatory conduct Of both wild and
domestic animals on the eve of earth
quakes, calamitous tempests and
other destructive outbreaks of ma
lures forces. II has generally been
assumed that some subtle form of
vibration acting upon nerves spe-
cially keyed TO respond to II is at the

are two evident ways in which these
results may be brought about.
First, there may be supersensi-
tiveness Of the regular organs of
sight, hearing and touch; second.
there may be special sense organs
not possessed by human begins. II
is probable that both of these condl-
tions are, On fact, fulfilled. Il is
even possible that man once had
senses, or branches Of senses
which he no longer enjoys, but
which, nevertheless, would serve
him we'll i'm some OF the new emer-
gencies that his conquest of former
ly unattainable forces has brought
him face 10 face with.
If the conditions imposed by this
war could be indefinitely continued
II is conceivable that the human
nervous mechanism would be read
justed backward, SO 10 speak,
through the reawakening of Old
sense responses that were in full ac-
tivity ia the days when man lived
in a world given over 10 the region

SHEEP GREAT MONEY MAKERS.
Mutton and Wool Are Two Sources OF
Profit.

The coming into Cloverland OF sew

great opportunity before many OF
us to realize more profit from sheen
than from any ether farm proposition.
That Mere is the finest grazing land
around here that can be found in any
part of the United States is the ver-
dict of those who have seen II all. The
rolling hardwood land, where the
clover comes up like weed when the
timber and brush are cut of. is es-
pecially adapted to sheep raising, and

used as farm land can be made 10 re-

must have care when necessary, the
same as any animal. IL good results
are expected. They feed on pasture
until winter has well begun, and be-
gin early in the spring so little win
ter feeding is required. For this
feed, nothing is better than clover.
peas, and rutabagas, which grow so
well here.
Besides the ease OF earning for the
sheep, there is the fact that two crops
are obtained from them. The wool
clip in itself amounts to a good bit.
and In addition there is the crop of
mutton. Both wool and mutton are
high now and will remain SO for a
long time after the war ends, as the
flocks of Europe have been killed Off
very heavily and IL will take long
time to build them up again.

NURSES MAY ENROLL.
Committee for Upper Peninsula Is LO-
Gated at Marquette.

Marquette IS headquarters in the up
per peninsula for the Red Cross Nurs-
ing service. All women wishing in
formation about enrolment in the SER
vice, application blanks, or any as
sistance in relation to their enroll
ment, should address Miss Francis S.
Clark, st. Luke's, chairman OF the
committee for the upper peninsula.
The nursing service committee was
organized there largely for the pur-
pose Of giving upper peninsula women
interested assistance in making e@'
rollment close at hand To a large
extent, It has failed TO relieve the bur
dened state organization because the
upper peninsula women have written
direct to Grand Rapids or to other Of
fees OF the nursing service letters
have been referred to the Marquette
committee, and in one way or other
much extra work has been involved.
I'VE would appreciate the assist
ance of the upper peninsula newspa-
pers in making known TO their readers
that applications for enrolment as
Red Cross nurses should be address
ed to Miss Clark here a member of
the committee said IF this is gener-
ally made known, and the information
is acetd on, the state organization,
which is over burdened with work,
will be relieved. Furthermore the up
per peninsula applicants will get
much quicker attention"
To meet its apportionment for the
Red Cross, Michigan has still to fur
nish 700 nurses. The campaign for
registration under the state laws, a
necessary preliminary TO enrolment
for Red Cross nursing. and then for
the enrolment of the active nurses,
has been going on steadily for the last
few weeks. with good results, but
there are still a large number OF
nurses who have not offered their SER
vices to the Red Cross, of which the
upper peninsula has its full share.
II the states apportionment is TO
be met there will have TO be a general
response from these nurses. The COM
mittee hopes that the ensuing few
weeks will see large additions to the
number of nurses already enrolled.

UNIFORMS ny SOLDIERS ONLY.

Uncle Sam has opened a campaign
to gather in all the youths OF the land
who are wearing parts, and so many
parts of the soldiers uniform that
their comings and goings confuse the
average citizen not conversant with
military apparel.
A large number OF young men are
dressing alnspst like soldiers although
they are not in the service. Many are
wearing the olive drab shirts, khaki
breeches and the leather puttees OF
an officer, and in some cases the cam
paign hat The combination is mis-
leading TO civilians.
Military men suggest that II men
are 80 proud to don the uniform OF &
soldier why should they not put IL on
for keeps and get in the game? There
Is plenty Of room in the army yet, they
say, for the youth who likes uniform
Probably the dealers who sell the
garments are not aware that the sell
in OF army apparel to civilians or the
wearing OF the same by men outside
the army is illegal. The impression
has gone out that because military
clothes are displayed in store windows
they may be purchased by civilians.
Such is not the case. A civilian has
no more right 10 wear the campaign
hat, or the breeches, than he has 20
wear the insignia of major genera
on his shoulder. or gold lace hat
cord on his hat Yet both of these may
be purchased in military supply houses
Neither has the merchant the legal
right to sell these articles until he n
certains who his customer Is.

ARMY REGULATION REDUCED.
New Height and Weight Ruling issued
by 4. =. Army Officials.

The height and weight OF applicants
for enlistment in the U. S army have
been reduced from 81 to 60 inches in
height and 40 10 1O5 pounds in weight
This opens the service to a great many
who were underweight and under the
required height
A very desirable branch of the ser
vice, the medical corps of the regular
army, is thus thrown open to a num-
ber of men who heretofore had been
unable ta enter The use Of glasses
u also permitted which will let men
slightly near-sighted enlist. This
branch OF service offers a fine oppor-
tunity to anyone interested in surgery
or pharmacy and the only requirement

Enlistment in the army is open 10
men from IS to Al years OF age and
not registered.
