fronts will visit Kansas about the
third week in February and address
meetings in twenty-four cities of this
state. The speakers will be from the
Food Administration committee
which landed in New York Sunday.
They have spent three months in
the war zone and have witnessed ac-
tpa1 fighting. Walter Burr, one of
the professors of Kansas State Ag-
ricultural College, who is secretary
of the speakers bureau OF the Kansas
Council of Defense is booking the
speakers.
He is planning to place the speak
ers over the state so that every Kan

Patriotic Fires Are Burning in Kan

aAEAONAC are burning an Nan
The war conference for the State
Council of Defense, at Topeka, last
week, kindled afresh the patriotic
fires in Kansas. 1t brought to the sew
eral hundred men and women who at
tended realizing sense of the size
of the job this nation now has on
hand, and of the duties and obliga-
tons that must be met if victory
comes to the United States and its al
lies, Today 1t can be said that the
fires are burning in Kansas as never
before. What ever the task i'm
posed it viii not be counted too great
or too difficult, If only it is to help
in some way the achievement of the
one great aim, which is to crush Prus-
sian autOcracy and win the war for
democracy.
At no time in the history of Kan
sas has there been such another war
council. At no period of the states
existence has there been a cause so
great, so urgent, as this one which is
demanding that every man, woman
and child in the state-as well as in
the natiOn-shall do everything that
is within his power to do in the name
and for the cause of their country.
Most notable among the score or
situation and its many phases; were
those of Sir Frederick Smith, attor-
ney general of Great Britain, and
DR.. George Vincent, head of the
Rockefeller Foundation. Through
these addresses the people of Kansas
were brought face to face with the
gravity of the situation in Europe
and Of the work that must be done
and done quickly and efficiently If
the allies are to win.
The work OF the various war activi-
| ties IN Kansas was ably presented by
/ Governor Arthur Capper, H. J. Wat
ers and other speakers. In every
case there was q generous approval
of what had been done, as well as the
plans for what is yet to be done.
| The only criticism uttered, if any
| thing, was IN the nature of a suggeS-
ton OF co-Ordinating the work
wherever possible and for speeding
up"
The suggestions not only were ap-
| plicable to the food conservation un-
/ der Walter P. Innis; state admins
| traitor; the fuel conservation work of
Emerson Carey, state administrator,
/ but they were applicable to every 9th
er activity having to do with war, in
! Guiding the War Savings and Thrift
campaign and the teaching of patriot
| ism and thrift in the public schools
That it IS the duty of all of the peo-
/ ne of Kansas to subordinate every
thing to the doing of those things
7Thich best viii helm to prosecute the
war WIS pointed out by P W. Coebel,
State Director for the War Savings
! Committee, in his mastery address.
| It was clearly shown as necessary for
the preservation of the future -heri-
! tage of the people, that every man,
woman and child shall become a saver
| instead Of a spendeT and that they
lend their savings to the government
to help win the war.
The war conference has awakened
the leaders of Kansas, and through
them the people of the state-those
not already awakened will be aroused
to the extent of doing their full share
/ IN the great scheme of war work, and
Kansas will ego over the top" in
every great war undertaking.

l was listening to man the other

He was telling me of his mastery over

of his talents and workmanship. Well
his talk cost me fourteen dollars but
l have felt from that day like quot

and all electricity men when discuss

faced liars. This perhaps is a ''little
bit" strong" but if you have ever
had ''starter" experience you can full

CROUCH IN JAIL AGAIN.
Sergeant Who Fled to Mexico
Apprehended Thursday.

Henry Crouch, who escaped
from the military authorities
some time ago while awaiting
the return of the court martial
findings in the case against him,
and fled to Mexico, was turned
over to the soldiers at the inter-
national boundary line by the
Mexican authorities Thursday
afternoon, and was locked up in
the guard house pending final
disposition of his case.
Crouch, who was a sergeant at
the time his troubles commenc-
ed, started on a rather sensa-
tional career with a companion
They rented a car from a local
garage, and after riding out OF
the Patagonia road some dis.
tance overpowered the two Mex
lean lads who accompanied them,
tying them up and leaving then-
beside the road. A heavy rain
came that night, and when the
youngsters were found the next
morning they were almost dead
from exposure.
Crouch and his companion
then drove the car to a point
near Patagonia, where they raj
into a bank and wrecked the
auto.
They then made their way
afoot to Washington Camp, nea
which point they held up a Mex
ican freighter and took two
horses from him, with which
they attempted to make theil
way across the line into Mexico
but were apprehended by coloreC
troopers just as they were about
to cross the line.
They were tried by court mar
tial, and the findings of The
court were forwarded to tht
: War Department at Washingto,
for approval. Before the paper
, were returned the two soldier
escaped into Mexico.
Crouch's companion was kill
ed, and now he is back in prison
awaiting final sentence for hi
deeds. A severe sentence j
: probable.

HAROLD LOCKWOOD
IN VIGOROUS ROLE.
The New Metro Feature, 'The
Avenging Trail" Is Force
full Drama.

Harold Lockwood enactS the
most vigorous role he has had in
his eight years experience be-
fore the camera in Metros pro-
duction of "The Avenging
Trail" a five act drama of the
timberlands, adapted by Fred J.
Balshofer and Mary Murillo
from Henry Oyen's novel, Gas
ton Olaf" which comes to the
Nogales Theater this afternoon
and evening.
CASTOR Olaf lis described as
a blood brother to the great out
doors, as big, as free, as lawless.
With his partner, Tom Pine, he
descends upon Havens Falls, a
lawless village in the heart of
the Northern lumber country, in
search of excitement and adven-
ture. He meets what he is seek
ing when, upon entering the vii
lage he finds Rose Havens strug-
Cling to free herself from the
embrace of Lefty Red, a notori-
Gus character. He compels Red
to release the girl, is challenged
to fight, accepts the challenge,
and after bitter struggle re-
turns the victor.
Thereafter CASTOR finds him
self In a whirl of adventure. He
takes charge of a gang of lum-
ber jacks employed by Taggart
to cut a lot of timber. The tim
ber belongs to Miss Havens.
When CASTOR learns this he de-
cides to compel Taggart to make
reparation. A battle of wits
ensues, eliminating in a tremen-
dous fight between the two men
the like of which has seldom, if
ever, been recorded by the
camera.
A delightful love episode in
volving Castor and Rose is
woven into the story.

Just how the accident hap

PLAN TO WORK, NOT TO STRIKE.

One OF the chief causes OF anxiety dnioiS
men in charge of production necessary for the
effective conduct Of the war would be removed
by assurance of an adequate supply OF labor. VI
course no positive assurance OF this KIND can
be given, for no one knows what new conditions
will develop before the end OF the war. but
something will be gained and the feeling of ma
tional security strengthened if workers IN
every department of industry show by their at
titude toward labor problems that they can DE
depended upon to keep at work so long as there
lis work to be done, and that the one method OF
settlement of differences which they will not
adopt is the strike method.
The great majority of workers in plants en-
ployed on government orders have shown a tine
spirit of loyalty Without that spirit our
achievements in shipbuilding, which Mr..
Schwab has said are magnificent, would have
been impossible. But disturbing reports have
come from other industrial fields. There have
been strike threats in the telegraph service
now fortunately quieted-and among railway
shopmen. Within a few days strike OF work
ers in great cotton mills in New Bedford, Mass,
has been settled but it is obvious that an agree
ment should have been brought about without
an interruption of work.
The Iron Age, a journal with many sources
Of information concerning industrial conditions,
says that the demand for skilled labor for mu
milton plants, shipyards and other vital indus
tries is increasing, but men are not in sight.
Plans are on foot it says ''for systematica[
Ly making heavy drafts, through regional com
mittees, upon workers whose ordinary employ
ment is gone or will be because material is with
held The danger of temporary unemploy
ment due to unavoidable conditions is too great
for anyone to leave work waiting to be done.
The cost of war is so great that no one capable
of straight thinking will make himself respon
sible for the waste involved in a strike.

What Our

Captain Bruce l.. Gilfillan, U. s.
Medical corps, has been attached for
six weeks to the French army at the
front in France. Under date of May
% he writes Keokuk friends that his
respect and appreciation of the
French people are greater than before.
French surgeons are wonderful, he
says.
Resting is surely delightful occu-
patton after six weeks in the front

His letter follows:

THEIR EVIL DEEDS.

Frank Wormke, an l. W. w. now in khaki
and possibly the solitary member of that vici-
Gus organization who has willingly taken up
arms for his country, has given interesting
testimony in the case Of Hayward and the other
indicted miscreants now on trial at Chicago.
Wormke confessed that in pursuance Of his
theories for conscriptng wealth he had in 1917
personal knowledge of or taken active part in
wrecking of irrigation pumps and fruit trees,
the smuggling of union organizers and men, the
placing of bombs in haystacks, the driving of
steel spikes in the ground to break reaper
sickles, the stealing of parts and the gripping
of farm machinery, the burning Of property,
the placing of phosphorus in elevators and
mills to produce Spontaneous combustion -
and the robbery of many persons. After his en-
listment he was urged to ''dope" the food of
soldiers, cut clothing and injure material.
