SHALL GIRLS ANSWER 'FRONT.'?

There seems to be no good reason why girl
ushers cannot take the place of bellboys in
hotels as the economic situation draws the boys
into other occupations. They certainly could
meet the doorman halfway down the lobby and
take pair of grips from him and there is no
doubt that they could page guests as intelligibly
as the boys do which, however would be no great
feat. And as far sitting in row on bench
is concerned, that would be easy as there would
always be somebody to talk to. But is it really
necessary to have substitutes for the bellboys !?
Since the question is one of utilizing available
workers to win the war, why employ the girls
in this way if it can be avoided? SAYS the
Pittsburg Press.
Hotel guests can manage to stagger up to the
desk under their own baggage. AS rule, hand
luggage does not weigh nearly as much as the
Army pack and the soldiers seem to worry along
without help. And guests might easily be
trusted to ride up to their floors alone and pro-
vided they were furnished charts of the corridors
and small compasses, could usually find their
rooms the first time. AS for walking in, setting
the bag on the bureau, raising the shades and
seeing the windows are locked so as no air can
penetrate the guests could do all these things for
themselves and have the quarter left for thrift
stamp. Bellboys probably have other little
duties; it has been rumored at times that they
are useful-that is, the big, strong ones-in
tucking in guests who can take drink or let it
alone. But this detail could be attended to by
the porter just as well and besides, the indica-
tons are that the "stuff that is all right if Won
know how to handle if,' will not bo ,,-o;loLlo
much longer.

GERMAN MISERY

Private letters from Germany which have
come into Allied hands indicate the heavy weight
which the war has imposed upon the poor in that
country Anxiety for peace finds frequent ex-
preston, as well as anger with the militarist
element in the nation.
1--WE hope that peace will come soon,' writes
. man from Berlin, 'for if the war lasts much
longer then the people here will make peace
Twice already there have been small riots, but
when the third comes it won't go well with the
rich people For the poor there is SO little food
that they can hardly live while the rich people
have stores laid up for years. Poor people are
only fit to be shot. The men in the field suffer
for the rich and we have to go hungry"
Along the same lines man from Central
Germany writes:
eff the rich had nothing to eat, as we poor
people have, the war would soon come to an end. :"
Many of the letters return again and again

GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, Sept. 9.-Dread of crop impairment by frost carried values up ward today in the corn market. Prices closed unsettled, 5se to 11sc net high CT, with October $l.57b to $1.5SB and November S1.571s to S1.57ss. oats finished unchanged to "A to Ssc up' and provisions varying from 20c de cline to 10c to 12c advance.
 Chances of frost tonight over a wide section of the northern states brought about prompt buying movement on the part of corn traders, and kept bullish sentiment decidedly in evil dence throughout the day. In this con nection reports of a killing frost in North Dakota were received with in- terest, but most of the anxiety was -n regard to possible damage elsewhere as the prevailing temperature was al most everywhere below normal. Late in the session, the market was steadi- ed somewhat by evening up transac- tions to prepare for surprises which might develop in the government re- port due after the close. As expect ed, the official figures showed a ma terial redution. Nevertheless they were larger than the most optimistic private guess.
 Oats hardened with corn. Hedging by cash houses, though, prevented any sharp advance.
 Provisions averaged higher, owing to an upturn in the hog market and because of large exports of meats last week. Trade was mainly in ribs.

Mlt1irq and Financial NetUS
BY REVIEW LEASED WIRE

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-Stocks broke almost violently in the latter part oi today's session, the early and inter mediate periods having been charac' terized by unusual duiiness and unim' portant price changes.
 The decline, which extended from ? to 4 points, among the more popular speculative favorites, lacked explana' tion. although the setback was coini dent with the publication of crop re port as of September.
 As a matter of fact, the report was far from adverse. Grains and other important cereals were quite as good if not decidedly better, than the esu' mates of the preceding one, the out look, as a whole, indicating vast i'm provement over August forecasts.
 As the markets barometer, nlteu States Steel, was subjected to the heaviest selling at an extreme decline of 35b points, only a fraction of which was regained. Other industrials and high grade rails yielded easily, the closing bringing a few feeble rallies. Sales amounted to 3S5,000 shares.
 lnuernatinal bonds, notably French municipals, were firm, but LiDer.. BIAS and other domestic issues yielded variably. Total sales, par value, were S6,775, ,OO0. Ol United States bonds were unhanged on call.

THE FUNCTIONS
 CRUSH C. & A.

By a score of IT to 4, the Junction Briggs won Sundays baseball game, defeating the c. & A. team. The ball played by the c. & A team was be- low standard. owing to the absence of Smith, and also the fact that the team was minus a right fielder. The weak ness may be accredited to the substi- tuition and switching of players.
 The playing, however. did not lack any of its sensational features which the players have always shown before
 An Thursday the All-Star military team of Douglas will be here to play the c. & A. team. The first game will be played by the c. & A. and Junction Briggs clubs, and the windup by the soldiers and c. & A. Between the games there will be a military exhibi- tion given by the United States guards stationed at Lowell, under the com mand of Lieut. Geiger. The military band from Douglas will also play.
