VITAL CHANGES IN
DRAFT IS URGED
PROPOSAL WOULD PUT POOL"
ROOM LoAFERs AND GAM
BLERs TO WORK.
BY A NEW CLASSIFICATION
Plan Submitted by Provost General
crowder's Office mad the De-
partment Of Labor.

Washington.-Dras notifications
ef the draft classification lists which
would affect in one way or another the
status of everyone Of the millions OF
registered men is proposed in plan
submitted to President Wilson by Of
Gals of the provost marshal generals
office and the department of labor.
While the primary purpose of the new
program is the qualification" OF the
second, third and fourth classes OF
registrants who are not engaged in
any productive industry, attention also
would be given to lower sections of
Glass 1 and the effect, its trainers be-
heve would be to solve the nations
labor problem and largely increase the
output of the necessities of life.
The proposal would utilize the draft
machinery for putting Industrial
sIackers to work. Every registered
man who has been granted deferred
classification would be given to under
stand that such deterrent is not
legal right, but privilege and that If
unfair advantage is taken of that
privilege, it will be summarily re-
<oked.
It is proposed to make most care
full survey of the lower sections of
Glass l and of other classes to iden-
tify those men who are idlers or who
are gaining their living through un-
desirable or harmful" pursuits. I'm
der the latter head, officials suggest
might be listed gamblers, bOOkmakers
for races, poOlroom touts and others.
Formal notification would be served
upon these men that, unless within
specified time they obtain employ
meRt in some useful industry, they
would have their classified status
changed so as to send them into mill
tary service Immediately.
The plan is not designed to inter
fere in the slightest with the social
ed non-essential industries. These
may be affected to some slight degree,
but officials say such injury would be
Offset many times over by resulting
national good to be obtained from the
augmented labor supply and the great
.1y increased production Of essentials.
Administration officials who have
participated in the preparation of the
plan declare that the next step would
he to obtain authority for the indus
trial classification of the man power
o fthe country up to the age of SO
years.

BEST FOODS FOR
YOUNG CHICKENS
Begin Feeding Any Time After
Youngsters Are So to 48
Hours Old.
BAKED J0HNNYCAKE is GOOD
Put the. "Grow" in Young Fowls by
Giving Bread Crumbs and Rolled
Oats Mixture Five Times
DaiIy-AIso Give Milk.

Give the young chicks a good start
in life by feeding carefully prepared,
nourishing food. Feeding should begin
any time after they are thirtysix to
forty-eight hours old, whether they are
the first month or two they may be
given food as often as five times day.
Baked jOhnnycake composed of the
following ingredients in the proper
tons named is a very good feed for
young chicks: One dozen infertile
eggs or one pound Of sifted beef scrap
to ten pounds of corn meal; add
enough milk to make a pasty mash,
and one tablespoonful of baking soda.
Dry bread crumbs may be mixed with
hard-boiled eggs, making about one
fourth of the mixture eggs, or rolled
oats may be used in place of the
bread crumbs.
Feed Five Times Daily.
Feed the bread crumbs, rolled oats,
or johnnycake mixtures five times
daily for the first week, then gradually
substitute for one or two feeds Of the
mixture finely cracked grains Of one
part by weight of cracked wheat, six
parts finely cracked corn, two parts
pinhead oatmeal or hulled oats, and
one part kaf1r corn, to which about
5 per cent Of cracked peas or broken
rice and 2 per cent of charcoal, millet
or rape seed may be added. A COM
mercial chick feed may be substituted
if desired. The above ration can be
fed until the chicks are two weeks old,
when they should be placed on grain
and a dry or wet mash mixture.
After the chicks are ten days old a
good growing mash, composed Of two
parts by weight of bran, two parts
middlings, two parts cornmeal, one
part rolled oats, and 10 per cent sifted
beef scrap may be placed in hopper
and left before them at all times. The
mash may be fed either wet or dry {;
if wet, only enough moisture (either
milk or water) should be added to
make the feed crumbly, but in no
sense sloppy. When this growing
mash or mixture is not used hopper
containing bran should be accessible
to the chickens at all times.
When one has only few chickens
1t is less trouble to purchase the pre-
pared chick feeds, but where a con-
siderable number are reared it is
sometimes cheaper to buy the finely
cracked grains and mix them together
Many chick feeds contain large guam
tity Of grit and may contain grains
Of poor quality, so that they should be
carefully examined and the quality
guaranteed before they are purchased.
Eliminate Chick Feed.
AS soon as the chickens will eat the
whole wheat, cracked corn and other
grains in about eight weeks
the smallsized chick feed can be
eliminated. In addition to the above
| feeds the chickens growth can be
fastened if they are given sour milk,
The review. [volume] (High Point, N.C.) 1908-19??, 1918-04-11
FEED CHICKS OFTEN
BUT DON'T STUFF THEM.

Young chickens should be fed
from three to five times daily,
depending upon ones experience
in feeding. Undoubtedly chick
ems can be grown faster by feed
ing five times daily than by feed
ing three times daily, but it
should be borne in mind that
more harm can be done to the
young chickens by overlooking
than by underfeeding, and at no
time should they be fed more
than barely to satisfy their APP
petites and to keep them exer-
cising, except cit the evening
or last meal, when they should
be given all they will eat. Young
chicks that are confined need
more attention TO avoid over
feeding than thDse that have
free range, as leg weakness is
likely to result in those confined.

TAKE BIT OF
TERRITORY FROM BRITISH

Hard fighting was proceeding north
and south of Albert as the result of
heavy attack by the Germans on the
British lines along a front of 5000
yards between Aveluy and Dernan-
court According to the latest re-
ports, the Germans had succeeded in
getting a foothold on a small triangu-
lar bit of territory, just southwest Of
Albert, which brought the attacking
troops close to the Albert-Amiens rail-
way.

FORMER HOPE PASTOR
DIED At HUNTER

Hunter Herald, July 25th.-The
shock and sense Of loss did not come
to the members of his congregation
alone when it became known that
Rev. Carl Van Auken, beloved pastor
of the Presbyterian church, had been
called to the higher life, for in the
short year he has been among us he
has won all hearts. Because" as
me near to him remarked, che loved
very one." Active and interested in
every good cause and tolerant of
other peoples views and convictions,
even if they differed from his own,
in non-essentials, he had won a last
ing regard from all his neighbors of
every set and condition of life.
He had been in failing health for
some time and preached his last SER
mon in open disregard of his Doctors
orders. though he was obliged to give
up the baccalaureate sermon to the
graduating class of the Hunter High
School for which he had prepared.
His sufferings were severe in spite of
the ministrations of his devoted wife
and doctors and nurses. But in the
intervals of freedom from. delirium
his christian faith shone out with the
clear briliancy of light on stormy
coast and remains a precious legacy
to his family and church for all time.
That his father and mother were
able to come to him in time to be
recognized by him, and his mother to
help in the ministrations for his
comfort, in ways only a mother un-
derstands is an unspeakable blessing
to his brave and loving wife as well
as to themselves.
1 am sorry cannot find words to
tittingly express the feelings of re-
gard this whole community holds for
him and for his family.
Carl Van Auken was born at the
home of his parents, Rev. John G.
Van Auken and his wife, January
18th, 1873, and was their only child.
Their addition for this precious child
was that he might become scientific
up-to-date farmer, and his intense
love of nature and animals seemed
to justify their choice, SO when he
had finished the course at the Grand
Rapids High School they gave him a
, two year course at the Michigan Agri-
cultural College at Lansing.
For three years he faithfully strOve
to realize the highest ideals of farm
life, nobly assisted by the wife he had
taken to himself in the person of
Miss Olive Morgan, who had also
taken course at the same college,

There is no danger of the earning
capacity of nurses being lowered
after the warsends on account of the
great number who, will then be quail
fed or the profession; the country
will need all the nurses that can be
trained, not. only during the war but
after it, especially for reconstruction
work. Even if the war ends within
three years, every student nurse will
be able to complete her training and
will be needed.
AN HONORABLE SERVICE. -
Ever since the days of Florence
Nightengale the nursing profession
has been one of especial honor. It
was never so honorable as it is to-
day. The Army needs every nurse it
can get to keep up with the draft" I"
The United States Student Nurse Re-
serve is the equivalent for women of
the great National Army training
camps for soldiers. The Govern
ment will rely upon the student
nurses to fight disease at home, to
care or those injured and disabled in
our hazardous war industries, and to
make themselves ready to serve when
the time comes as fully trained nur-
ses, either abroad or at home. Let

HANNA WRITES FROM
ACROSS THE POND
States That It Is Very Difficult
Matter to Locate Our
Wounded Soldiers

Former Governor l.. B. Hanna
who represents North Dakota in
the executive service of the Red
Cross in France, writes Page
friends, that it is difficult mat
ter to locate boys who are wound
ed and lying in military hospitals
there. He says that there are
about $3.50 hospitals and~that an
American boy may be taken to
any one of them. He suggests
that the boys have someone notify
him as soon as they enter a hos
pital, in order that he may keep
in touch with them and conditions
there. He urges that all persons
writing soldiers from North Da-
kota, advise the boys to do this,
so that he may quickly relieve an
xiety on the part Of loved ones
at home, in case of injury. The
difficulty connected with travel
in France cannot be appreciated
by one who has not been over
there, says Gov. Hanna. One
first must have a permit to take
a train, and this means delay of
from one to Is days. Then after
receiving a permit to take the
train, one must have another per,
NIT to travel on the train to a
certain destination, and that des,
tination must be fixed for the
permit will apply to none other
He requests that this notice be
given the widest publicity in the
state and that local newspapers
please copy in order that he may
keep in the closest touch with the
boys.-Page Record.

and to whom he was married at her
home in Traverse City, Mich, Nov
ember End, 1897.
But while he was student in the
Grand Rapids High School he be-
came a member of the Park st. Con-
gregational church of that city, whose
pastor at that time was Dan F. Brad
ley, who was for many years the con-
secretated president of Grinnell Col
lege. Iowa. The religious convictions
he had imbibed in the Christian
home in which he was raised were so
deepened and strengthened by his
association with this gifted man that
he became imbuded with the convic-
tion that he must carry the gospel
message he had received to others,
and with the hearty cooperation of
his good wife, began at once his pre-
paration at Moody Institute, Chicago,
and continued at Wheaton College,
then was graduated from Chicago
Theological Seminary with the degree
B. D., the fourth in a class of twenty
five. Afterwards taking a post-grad-
uate course at Oberlin. Ohio. An in
teresting fact concerning his min
istry is that during those eighteen
years he was never without charge
and missed only one appointment
during the whole time. He had
changes in the states of Ohio, Illinois,
Iowa and North Dakota, coming to
this state in 1906.
81 Into their happy home came three
Biomising children, but Marjorie, the
oldest and the only daughter died at
the age of twelve years, at Preston,
Iowa, and the boys John G. and
Glenn NJ, are left to be the comfort
Of their mothers lonely heart.
A stranger would have known at
once how great man chad fallen in
lsreal' from the number of autos
lining the street, and the wealth of
flowers that transformed the church
into a veritable bower of beauty.

FRENCH PEOPLE ARE PROSPEROUS
 FROM TIE: WAR
The Money Spent by the American and British Troops Have Poured
 Wealth into Veins.

NEW YORK, Dec. GA French army officer, now in this country, the statement made by Jacob II. Schiff that France, after four years and a half of war, is almost as financially prosperous az she has been in all her history. It
 IS easy to account for this pros perity, he says. First, the British army came in ever-increasing mum bers, and for their use the British had to build piers and vast store houses and railroads. French labor was employed to as great an eX- tent as possible in the construction work. And French laborers were well paid. Besides, British soldiers spent freely of their pay wherever they were stationed in France. Then came along the soldiers from Australia It has been estimated that they left in France an aver age of about $30 month. And finally, the Americans came. They were the best spenders of all the fighting forces. The United States sent an army of not far from 2,000,- coo men, Britain an army of not far from 4,000, 1000 men plus the troops from her colonies. Suppose, said the officer, each one of these foreign soldiers spent on the soil Of France $20 a month Multiply T. 000,00 or 8,000,000 men by $20 and you can get some idea of the vast sums of money which the sol diers of the Allies of France spent on French territory.
