SECRETARIES START
FOR OVERS SEAS

There are a great many changes in
the Young Mems Christian Association
secretarial force at the present time
This is due to several causes. Secre-
taries have started for over seas SER
vice. This includes F. D. Sherwood,
Physical Director; C. H. Linebach,
Educational Secretary and G. w.
Veech, Assistant Secretary. Others
are going to the army or navy as H.
M. Dukes, Business Secretary, while
d few are being transferred to other
places as Mr.. A. L. Tebbs, who has
been Song Leader in the camp, and
also the leader of the community
singing down town.
This brings up questions which
have been asked by several persons
What is the basis for the selection
of Young Mems Christian Associa-.
ton Secretaries?" I'D What are the
requirements for France?" Anyone
interested in this proposition must
hand his name to the National War
Work Council of the Y. M. C. AS,
1874 East 28th Street, New York. The
Bureau of Personnel will investigate
his previous training, previous occu-
pations, his record as to character;
and will, If satisfied, suggest him to
camps in need of secretaries. In this
country some men Of draft age are
being used These are generally in
the fourth or fifth class, and most of
them have been rejected because of
physical defects.
For overseas service the require
ments are much more severe. A Sec
rotary may not be of draft age, unless
his physical defects are obvious; an
arm gone, a leg gone, an eye out
For work in Frence he may not have
a German name, nor even a grand
father born in Germany, A pro-
nounced political socialist nor an ac
tice pacifist will be rejected and each
secretary must be in positive accord
with the policies Of our Government.

Then the bully of the place arose on his
hind legs and began to bray. The boys
began to chuckle; for now, they felt
sure, the real fun would start. Somewhat

MINING and Financial NeWs
eY REVIEW LEASED WIRE

NEW YORK. April 24.-Resumption
of German attacks on the western
front accounted only in part for the
mixed conditions which prevailed in
today's stock market. The new Teu-
tonic offensive inspired caution but
had no pronounced effect upon secur-
ities of recognized value.
Automobile shares were subjected
to severe impairment With the eX-
ception of pacific mail, shippings dis
played all of their recent sluggish
ness on limited offerings and rails
were slightly lower, even Reading
failing to hold it soceasional advance.
The few impressive gains were
made by stocks obviously dominated
by professional interests or pools.
Equipments, coppers, oils, distillers
securities and industrial alcohol were
temporarily higher but for the most
part surrendered to the active sell
ing of the last hour. Gulf states steel
added nine points to its recent adj
vance but seasone dindustrials of that
vance but seasoned industrials of that
were unchanged or nominally lower.
Total sales amounted to 100000
shares. Bonds we're irregular, includ-
ing the Liberty group, while Intervals
eased on lighter trading. Total sales
par value aggregated S6,125,00O. U.
S. bonds, old issues, were unchanged

GRAIN LEAD

CHICAGO, April 24.-Planting de-
lays and falling off in arrivals made
the corn market today show consid-
cradle strength at times. The close
was nervous, at the same as yester-
days finish to Il higher, with May
1878 and July 1895 to 1879. Oats
lost a shade to l cent net. In pro-
visions the outcome was unchanged to
45 cents lower.
Government advices that planting in
the chief sections of the corn belt
had been seriously interferred with
by recent low temperatures rallied
the corn market after an early adj
vance had been more than offset by
sympathy with weakness which de-
veloped in the oats trade The in
itial gains by corn were ascribed to
an evident decrease in the movement
from rural sources and to. a scarcity
of offerings. On the late. upturn, the
principal demand came from shorts.
More favorable weather present and
prospective counted to some extent
against any important lasting advance.
Refusal of exporters to follow up
turns in the price of oats inspired
much selling of that grain. Besides,
messages from the east regarding the
domestic distributing trade were very
pessimistic as to the outlook for new
buying in the next fortnight.
Provisions gave way with hogs and
as a result of increased packing in
the west.

Hamlin's Wizard Oil is a safe and

nerves and almost invariably brings
quick relief.
Its healing, antiseptic qualities can
always be relied upon to prevent in
lection, or other serious results, from
sprains, bruises, cuts, burns, bites and
stings. Just as good, too, for sore
feet, stiff neck, frost bites, cold sores
and canker sores.
