BAKER ASKS FOR ARMY OF 100000 TO END WAR

DR.. \. w. Springs OF Dewmaine,
whom we have said in our fore
going remarks IS running for the
Legislature in the 5oth district.
DIR. Springs is not altogether d
stranger in this. end of the state,
especially in Cairo. Some years
ago he made his home there per
haps for a summer or two.
He IS a graduate Of Fisk Uni
ver,ity. Nashville Tenn. and he
graduated in medicine OF the not
ed Medical College Of Chicago
He has been the physician and
surgeon OF the hospital Of Dew
maine for more than ten years ii
we remember correctly He has
not only lucrative practice with
the coIored people, but with the
whites and the other races that
make up the community
DR.. Springs having been a
school teacher at one time felt keen
ly the needs OF the colored youths
OF DeWmaine. He was elected as
one Of the Trustees Of the Board
and as he felt that 8 years course
was not sufficient for the colored
children. but that they needed a
higher education, he therefore
took the iniative in securing the
High School in DeWmaine He
was closely seconded by L J.
Jones. 1t stands as a monument
to their credit.
DR. Springs believes the day is
at hand for the black man to rise
shake himself in all the higher
walks Of life. To do this. he
must have more than an Sth years
course. He believes they must
be educated with broad culture,
they must have the training that
will put them in possession OF
practical skill, such as Will win sue.
cess. He believes in having law
yers well trained in legal lore, Sc
that they shall be able in that nat
ural eloquence in which they .eN-
eel to carry conviction to dignifed
courts, as he thinks it is high time
for colored lawyers to rise above
the Justice OF the Peace court.
And that the ministry not only be
earnest and sanctlhed but give
them broad education that they
may be able to cope with the deep
things Of God, yes science and
theology He believes in the race
having statesmen well grounded
in philosophy, history and govern
ment SO they Will be able not only
to win victory upon the stump
but in the halls OF legislatures
He believes in the homes OF
Christian culture and social refine
ment. These things will qualify
the race for the struggles Of life
andhor this reasons his conscience
as we'll as his friends have impor-
tuned him to become a candidate
for the Legislature, the whites as
well as the coloted have solicited
him to run.
/, will be a financial loss to him
but he feels that it is better for
him tserve where he can do the
greatest good to she greatest num-
Der. So let us rally around
his standard, in the primary cleo
ton in September.
Respectfully yours,

Insurance for Every Fighter
Slogan of War Risk Bureau

Americas fighting sforces have en-
tered the home stretch of the first
government insurance campaign with
enthusiasts, Secretary McAdoo an
nounces. Having passed the $4,000
600, 900 mark in the total of policies
written efforts are being made to
have the military and naval forces 100
per cent insured. Many army camps
have already obtained more than
$100,000,00O of insurance. But these
totals. great os they are. are regarded
only as a beginning.
Men Should Not Delay.
The vital necessity of filing appli-
cations promptly is squirting on all
soldiers and sailors to fresh efforts in
the insurance campaign, and men
who have not yet aYailed themselves
of the full government protection arc
being urged to sign applications for
insurance before il is too late. For
persons who Joined the colors on or
before October Is, 1917, the last day
for applying for the government in

who Joined after October Is must
apply within 120 days after entering
the service.
Soldiers and sailors who are de-
pending on the automatic insurance
provided by the government until
February II, 1918, are being warned
by their commanding officers that
this is only partial and limited pro.
lection. 1t is payable only TO a wife,

Many Prominent Men Have Worshiped

which more presidents and men prom
lnent In Washington official life have
worshlped than in any other church
in the national capital, has celebrated
Its centennial anniversary. The pres

st. Johns was the first building TO
be erected on Lafayette square after
the White House, which was completed
In 1900, the Christian Herald observes.
The presidents of the United States
who worshlped here were John Quincy
Adams, Madison, Monroe. Van Buren,
William Henry Harrison, Tyler, Taylor,
Fillmore ana Arthur, and in more re-
cent times the White House was repre-
sented by Mrs. Roosevelt and Mrs.
Taft, who made st. Johns church their
church home.
Other prominent people were regu-
larly seen in the congregation, includ.
ing Stephen Decatur Henry Clay,
John c. Calhoun, Chief Justice Fuller,
Salmon p. Chase, Benjamin f. Butler,
Lewis Cass, George Bancroft, Winfield
Scott and George Dewey. Its rectors

The Distinctive Touch.

1t is not SO much n question of what
color predomlnates in your dining
room, for there is some shade or tone
of almost every color which is possible
for almost any room, but unless you
have quiet background in your walls,
and hangings of medium color value,
so that you are free TO use different
contrasting colors in your minor acces-
sories, you will find yourself commit.
ted to one fixed and narrow color
scheme the year round and, as flowers
are as necessary on the well-furnished
table as salt or soup, this may prove
monotonous and expensive when your
chosen decoration is out of season. In
all these little touches, as well as In
the larger ways, is that subtle thing
which we call distinction given to q
room.-Ladies' Home Journal.

CAPES FOR EVERY OCCASION
Models Of All Kinds Which Are Being
Turned Out by Designers Prom
ise to Have Definite Vogue.

Short coats are once more subject
for experiment and capes promise to
have a definite vogue. Already there
are attractive capes of many kinds on
view, and word comes from Paris of
more and more cape models, short,
long, frivolous, severe, capes for sports
wear, for morning wear, for afternoon
wear, for evening wear.
One shop is showing delightful, full,
enveloping capcs of charmeuse, bro
cade on one side, plain on the other
and reversible. A frock of dark blue
and beige block check silk has very
clever short cape of dark blue cloth
collared and lined with the silk.
Another short dark blue cape is of
saberdine and has good-looking high
collar of biscuit cloth. Long,eclrcular
capes of sports materials are many,
blue burella model lined throughout
with llne white serge, being n case In
point, and thinner materials such as
Jersey are made into full, long capes
shlrred TO yokes. The collar is often the
distinguished feature of an otherwise
very simple cape, and designers are
exhausting their ingenuity upon this
detail as they have upon the collar for
the topcoat.
One designer sends out sports cape
of white serge with glrdles and yoke
of blue and white block check and an
other provides full cape of violet
djersa lined with gray and hugely col
Jared in gray Jersey in most original
fashion.

HAT NDNECkWEAR
These Two items OF Apparel
Should Be in Harmony.
Fact That They Should Be on Good
Terms With Each other Is Not
Always Recognized.

II is not a generally recognized fact
hat neckwear and hats ought to be
IN very good terms with each other.
There is nothing that so affects the APP
)earance of hat as the collar II Is
worn over. Maybe that Is why the new
hat, which you liked so well the day
you bought IT, does not satisfy you
now; maybe II is the collar which you
wear with 1t.
The collar should follow more or
less the outline OF the hat, that is, n
eeat tailored stock like the one shown
Tith the buttons should not look so
yell with the flaring sailor with the
asset trimming. This sailor tops n
double collar effect, which is stunning,
Indeed. The tabs of the flare collar
coming down through sllts in the cape
collar and ending in rather long ends
take away from 1t the awkward look
which round collar is apt to give.
This is n splendid model for organdie.
The tassel trimming on this sailor is n
simple and very stunning trimming
for n sports hat of this type, says the
Milwaukee Sentinel.
A medum-sized turned-up hat, with
Indications of the tricorne about 1t,
1ses an anchor of silver braid to en-
oelllsh the caught-up left side. These
patriotic embltms promise unusual
vogue in the millinery world. The col
lar and cuff set used with this set sug-
gests a soft sports silk or wash satin.
The ball-welghted ends hold them
selves in place through the clots in
collar and cuffs, though snap fasteners
might prove a helpful addition here
Trig, indeed, is the stock and cuff
set under the snug-ittlng turban

are made, and their tailored trimness

circulation of mir. Strong gates with
sliding bolt locks are placed at the
corner Of each pen next TO the central
passage. The remainder of the front
Of each pen Is taken up with the
trough. above which n swinging gate
is hinged to swing into the pen. a slid
ing rod stop being dropped down
against the inside edge of the trough
to hold the gate open while the trough
is being filled. The same slide rod
locks the gate shut when II is dropped
down against the outside edge of the
trough.
This building Is framed I'm simple
yet rigid manner. The roof Is sup
ported by the two outside walls and
by two inside bents which define the
central passage. The extension of one
of these bents forms the wall In which
the pivOted windows are framed. A
vertical post is set at the inner corners
Of each pen. The plate surmountIng
these posts supports the rafters. Lat
eral bracing Is spiked TO the posts and
to the outer wall studs and also to the
two rows Of posts Immediately beneath
the plate below the piyoted windows.
The foundation under the two rows of
posts Is not continuous. but consists
Of a concrete pier carried down 10 a
solid footing under each OF the posts.
These piers are placed at the time OF
building the floor. one very good
method consists in embedding metal
sockets OF suitable size in the soft
concrete above the piers In the exact
location Of the posts which will then
be held firmly in place in the finished
building.
The floor plan Illustration also pre-
sents n suggestion for the fencing and
open pens which might be used in
connection with this building. The
open pens are formed between the
south side of the building and the
main lnclosing fence, which IS II feet
from the building ON this side. Nov
able fences are set up to divide on
the pens On the opposite side of
The building the lncloslng fence Is built
close 20 the wall to form runway,
near the ccptcr Of which it Is intend
cd that a dipping vat be constructed.
This Illustration also shows feed
and litter track installation. The track
is continuous through the building and

easter TO get the sun into every part
of the house than Il is when the house
is wider The length, of course, makes
no difference In this respect.
The foundation of the building is
concrete and n concrete floor is spread
over the entire surface with proper
cutters formed along the length of the
building on each side of the central
passage. Troughs shown on the plan
may also be built of concrete, the
forms required for their construction
being exceedingly simple. a concrete
floor In a hoghouse is almost an abso-
lutte necessity, but it Is too cold for
hogs 70 sleep on. For this reason, the
nests are placed ON loose, wooden
floors which may be moved about for
cleaning. These floors are about half
the size of the pens. There should be
a ridge around the edge of each floor
10 hold the bedding.
The upper windows are pivoted so
any humber of them may be pulled
open for ventilation. With five shoats
In each pen, the house will be warm
enough TO have some of the windows
open most of the tune. OF course
hogs need ventilation just as much as
any other animal I'm order that they
may maintain their good health.
The pens are divided with solidly
constructed fencing, space between
boards being sufficient to allow free
