A letter came to Mr.. Hoover the
other day from a little girl in a
Scotch mining town She thanks
him for the unselfshness of the Am

the Germans, who she is "jolly well

them to look after any land but It,

1t makes you wonder just how
unselfish you have been, to read

they had clearly taken step in the

would be to their own best interests

The Board simply offered the Auto

Even those manufacturers who have

OF the country can be readily mag

considerable difficulty in securing
enough cars to fill the demand, which,
judging by the number that have been

tiles are stimated at 5,646,31S. These
figures are significant for they tell
not only Of the great number of men
the "Y" interested in healthful ath-
letics but also show how millions
who looked on were amused and had
their minds taken off harmful infiu
ences not tending to upbuild the
morale of the army.
Perhaps one Of the major aims of
the "Y" in the Army and Navy has
been to show the soldier boy that he
should not forget to nurture his spir-
itual needs. Not only does the year
ly report prove that the ~" has not
neglected to look after the religious
side of the mems lives, but conclu
sively shows that religious influences
have been exerted with telling eff.
fct that might not have been
achieved in civilian life.
The resume of religious activities
shows that 3,464,451 persons attend
ed 16,46S religious meetings under
"Y" auspices in the Southeast, that
21,2S8 Bible classes were formed
among the soldiery with attendances
ranging at 395,34S, that 223, 232 scrip
lures were distributed, that "Y"
orkers had 1888 personal Chris
tan interviews with soldiers, that
the boys made 43,093 Christian de-
cisions and that 1858 signed the
Religious War Roll.
The attendance at the "Y" social
activities in the huts was phenome-
nal, 3,713,609 attending $3.50 enter

larger, the attendance being estimat

With the Army and Navy contin
ually growing in size, indications are
now that the next fiscal year will

OF all the sugar used in this
country, in 1917, from &C to u per

is here that the country must reduce
its demands. When the new crops
begin to come in November, the
shortage will be somewhat relieved.
But for the present there is an alb
solute necessity ythat the country
halve its use of sugar.
As Mr.. Hoover's young correspon-
dent said, we do miss the sweet
meats, but we too, can get along
without them. Fruits, especially
dried ones like figs, dates, etc, con-
tain large amount of sugar. So
sugar in graduated form is not the
only way for us to have it. That
is a necessity overseas, where our

Figures are usually dry and hard to

has been given to the boys from the
North, the South, the East and the

Southeast
In compilation of general activi-
ties at the camps under Y. M. G. A.
direction, it is estimated that the
attendance in the "Y" huts for the
year reached 3S,S66,9S0 men. That
the huts were generally filled with
soldier boys is proven in this esti-
mate figure for the buildings although
generally large are not extremely so.
1t is also stated that 32SS9, OO2
letters were written by soldiers in
Y M. c. A. huts and in almost every
case upon the "Y" stationery furn-
ished free to the men.
The report collected from all the
camps in the Southeast further
shows that "Y" workers in the huts
here wrote out $2,463,744 worth of
money orders for American soldier
boys. This means that the splendid
men sent back home to relatives

TO VOTE ON BONE DRY
LAW NEXT TUESDAY
Prohibition Measure Will Appear on
Ballot as Referendum Meas
ure No. 10

At Tuesdays election the voters will
be called to vote on two questions OF
legislation. The one in which there
is most interest is the so-called Bone
Dry law, which will be known on the
ballot as Referendum Measure No. 10.
The voter may voter yes or no. A vote
for the referendum measure means a
vote to sustain the Bone Dry law and
vote "no" means a vote to return
to the former permit system.
The other question that will appear
on the ballot is House Joint Resolu-
ton No. 1, submitting to the people
the question of calling convention to
revise or amend the constitution of
the state.
For several years there has been
considerable agitation for a revision
of the state constitution to more ade-
quately meet present day situations.
But many of the advocates of revision
are not now in favor of calling the
convention because of war conditions
and the big problems of reconstruction
which will press forward for solution
at the close of the war.

ADAPTED TO MODERN NEEDS
Seeming Proof That Feet OF Women
Have Developed With Enlarge
ment of Their Work. :

The different sizes chosen for the
standard boots for women did not APP
parently include size one, which raises
an interesting point, remarks the
Manchester (Eng.) Guardian. Some
little time ago an old curiosity shop
In country town showed in its win
dow a woman's shoe of ancient date.
1t was made of gray-blue brocaded
silk, with a large sQuare-cut tongue
and fastened with buckle. The heel
was very high, made Of wood and COW
cred with red-brown leather. 1t was
a beautiful shoe, and might have be-
longed to lady of Marie Antoinette's
court, or even have trodden dances In
the time of our Merry Monarch. But
It was SO extraordinarily small that
900 women would have failed to get
It on.
The thousandth happened to see 1T,
was fascinated by its appearance, and
asked if she might try it on. 1t fitted
exactly.
Was the normal size foot of that
age the abnormal one of this? One
wonders. And have women's hands,
feet and waists developed 10 suit the
work which nowadays they have to do?
