Urged to Conserve Flour.

District Food Administrator Wilson
in a statement today calls upon the
public to conserve wheat nour.
1.-The reason for this change" says
the statement, ''is the rule that album
dant crops and large stores furnish
enough wheat and wheat -four for
our present reasonable needs. It must
always be remembered, however, that
flour. like all other foodstuffs, must
not be wasted and that careful and
patriotic conservation must go on.
The time will soon come when we
shall have to send millions Of tons
of foodstuffs to the liberated but fam
ine-stricken countries Of Europe"

THOUGHTS Of MOTHER
IN U. S. SOLDIERS MIND
French Poilu Thinks Of Wife and
British Tommy Of Sweetheart
Before Battle.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMIES IN
THE FIELD. October is Correspond
ence of the Associated Press,.-When
an American soldier goes "over the
top" or when he receives a bullet or
shrapnel wound he thinks of his
mother. The French poilu thinks OF
his wife. and the British Tommy Of his
sweetheart.
This fact Is borne out by the officers
and doctors who have served in all
three Of the allied armies. They de-
clare that when the American soldier
is wounded. the first word on his lips
in almost every case is Mother"
Even after he is removed to the hos
pital he calls constantly for his
mother. His British cousin, however,
seems chiefly absorbed in his sweet
heart, and longs to see her lust once
again." while his French compatriot
thinks only of his femme bien
aimee"

Think of Home and Mother.


The correspondent of the A.'socia tee
Press at the American front asked a
number of soldiers what thought was
most on their minds when they frs
left their trenches to attack the Ger
mans. In nine cases out of ten the
answer was, ''Of home and mother"
There were a few, however, who said
that as they entered the battle their
minds were given over wholly to
prayer, although they had never be-
fore been in the habit OF praying.
Some of them kept before them words
of encouragement and counsel con-
tanned in letters from relatives.
One soldier on the morning OF the
attack received a letter from his
mother. quoting the scriptural phrase,
Trust in the Lord and no enemy shall
prosper against. thee" The soldier
went through onA Of the bloodiest bat
ties of the war that day and came out
unscathed.

The zinc products plant, which has
been secured for Baxter Springs by
the Chamber of Commerce, may 10
cate elsewhere because of not receiv-
ing the encouragement locally that it
should have. The officials Of the
Chamber of Commerce have all sub
scribed to the fund and have done all
in their power to make the project a
success, but it has not received suffi-
cient encouraging support otherwise.
1t is understood that Baxter Springs
has been given until Monday noon to
make goon on the proposition, as Oil
yer Greenstreet, with whom the
Chamber of Commerce has signed
contracts, has received good induce
ments to locate the plant in Joplin.

SEWER WORK IS
RUNNING BEHIND
Superintendent Says Chamber of
Commerce Is Depicting Rank
of Sewer WOrkers-Says
It Is Labor Bureau

At a meeting of the city council Fri.
night superintendent of the sewer
work, John Wygle, was called upon by
Mayor Wright to make review of
the sewer work for the past several
weeks. Mr.. Wygle says for various
reasons the past two weeks would not
make very satisfactory report and
the city is probably running behind
the Plummer-Adams estimate.
In explanation of this Mr.. Wygle
says that due to influenza and other
causes he now has only about 80 men
on the work and has not been able to
recruit above this number. "Isnt this
Chamber of Commerce campaign for
labor cutting in on you?" asked
councilman. at is, badly, they have
taken many of my men and have wor-
ried me considerably" replied Mr..
Wygle. One councilman complained
that the Chamber of Commerce had
become labor bureau and as such
was doing the town much injury.
Mr.. Wygle says that the work prior
to the past two weeks has been pro-
crossing nicely. About 40 per cent of
the lateral sewer system has been
completed and some of the hardest
ditching is done-the majority of it.
The ditching machine has been run
ming into difficulties-large boulders
that have made is impossible to make
much progress with the machine. Mr..
Wygle says he will begin work in the
Omaha addition right away and there
is no rock there to impede the work OF
the machine and it is quite possible
the time lost in the last two weeks
will be mdae up if the Superintendent
can get the men. There has been
some bad weather lately, which is an
other item that has slowed down the
work.

NEWS AND COMMENT

Chas. Cook, fireman, did something
Friday that is quite characteristic
of the Baxter firemen. Mr.. Cook is
Just getting able to use a broken
wrist. The wrist is still weak and any
violent use of it is very dangerous,
but when Mr.. Cook saw the south end
of Military street threatened by the
fire yesterday morning, he few in and
worked just as hard as anybody to
save property and do all that could be
done by the fire company. Not that
Mr.. Cook is any more Of hero than
the other members of the Baxter fire
company, but the little incident OF the
broken wrist makes him more conspic-
uous for complimentary mention. 1t
is shame that such a loyal bunch Of
fire fighters are so badly hampered by
lack of water facilities to fight fire.
Also some of the streets Of the town
are in such bad shape that they all
take their lives in their hands when
the driver shows any speed with the
fire wagon. Just inside the fire sta
ton is a chart to show the bad streets
of the town. The chart is blank. When
reporter for the Daily Citizen asked
if all the streets in town are good
he was told that they were all bad and
it wasn't any use trying to designate
those that are worse than the major
itY.
