chamber of commerce took a course Of
training which fitted them and har,len-

Emergency Labor Organization.
The farm labor administration OF
the Illinois state council Of defense,
In cooperation with workers furnished
by the U. 8. department of agricui-
ture. has perfected an emergency farm
labor organization in practically every
county Of the state. Reports from 60
counties show more than $4,000 work
ers registered to assist In the harvest.
In the sugur-beet districts Of south
ern Michigan. Colorado and Utah many
thousands of workers have been Sc

insure large supply Of sugar.
In a similar wny the other states
hGve organized and enlisted labor for
the farms and thus meet In most

ToWNFoLK MUST HELP

Though townspeople have al

farmers to harvest their crops
and to do other necessary work.

Harvesting Of cotton. cane. rice.

cooperation Of men, women,
boys and girls from cities and
towns to help in the fields and
orchards. Through the active
efforts of many city and town
organizations in securing neces-
sary help for farmers. the labor
problem has been successfully
solved In many communities.

for emergency farm hands In the

I / TRAIN NURSES.

u Ia
In view Of 1.-The fact that SO many
thousand graduate nurses have been
called into active service In foreign
countries, and realizing the great
danger that confronts the people at
home in the absence OF these trained
nurses. the government makes one
more demand of the women at
home: To make special preparation
i'll the field of hygiene, home care of
the sick, and home dietetics.
Women, instinctively, have always
had concern for the health of their
immediate families. Today they are
asked to think in terms OF our cpun-
try. 1t becomes more necessary than
ever before to conserve the health of
the general public, that our depleted
ranks may be kept vigorous and full
ly competent to meet the problems
that arise in this time of national
crisis.
Greater death toll was exacted- Of
Canada up to December 1917 from
six preventable diseases, than from
the war. For two reasons the gov
eminent is deeply concerned about
the health of the people of our coun-
tryi Nothing SO quickly destroys
the mettle of the man in the field as
the knowledge that members of his
family at home are Ill and in need
of special care; the other reason is
obvious.
In compliance with the govern
ment's request, the local chapter is
Arranging for courses to be given In
Elementary Hygiene and Home
Care of the Sick" and Home
Dietetics."
The purpose of the courses is
primarily educational, and not ia
, ,.dalify women as professional
nurses. The student Is not bound to
serve in any capacity under the Red
Cross. She is expected rather. to as.
sumo more responsibility for the
care for the sick In her own home
thus releasing the graduate nurse
who may be needed for active duty
in the military hospital. 1t is more
over the first step toward qualifying
the student as a Nurses Aid.
Mrs. Roy Bullen, chairman OF this
division of the work announces that
preparations are nearly complete for
the registration of students for these
courses. T
Two sections will be organized
Section One for married women and
Section Two for girls over eighteen
yearsof age. Each ward Relief So
ciety Is asked to furnish two repre-
sentatives TO take the course; each

From absorbed interest in the ad-

turned yesterday to low priced rails.

RALLY IN steel.

Since the recovery to above 81 on
Tuesday Steel common has been sub
jected daily to attack by the profess
sional traders on the floor. The attack
drove the issue close to 95 on several
occasions. but never closer than one
quarter of point Yesterday. when the
news was of no consequence so far az
the market was concerned. the same eff
fort was made In the early part OF the
session. During that time a quiet ac-
emulation had been going on in the
leader. as In many other issues. under
assure OF the depressed sentiment in
the trade. The attacks, indeed, brought
out less stock until yesterday with pro-
verbal readiness the traders switched
their activities to the constructive side

bring to q close the period of dulness

Looking for "Good Thing. to Buy"

The steady decline In Liberty bonds
this week suggests that there may be
some such movement on this side of the
Atlantic as the Economist of London
complains about in England and which
1t terms looking around for good
things to buy" meaning. of course. in
the stock and bond investment line.
"t'nhappily." says the Economist of No
vember 3. lit is still necessary to insist
on this elementary duty (to support the
country with savings) because the IN
investing public is not doing what It
should. and in the last few months the
habit OF looking around for good things
to buy has become much too common.
There has. in fact. been "A small
boom In certain markets which doubtless
has absorbed bank money that will be
needed for reconstruction. and has been
drawn away from Government funds
that ought to have been put at its dis
posal. The craze started. so far as one
can judge. from the notion that II was a
clever thing to do for appreciation OF
capital In order to avoid Income tax; II
was stimulated by the action of several
big Industrial companies in capitalizing
their reserves; It has grown with the
snowfall force Of every boom, big or
little

Raw Materials Prices.

Wall street had not yet forgotten that
the steel and other basic industries were
facing a decline In the prices OF their
commodities. Rather was the belief in
that eventuality spread TO a greater eX-
tent at the week end. 80 much so that
it was predicted In many places that the
stock market could not climb out Of its
narrow trading area until the adjustment
of prices In industry had been started and
a settled market made for the resump-
ton OF general trade. The general opin-
ion, however. was emphasized in mar
ket letter issued by Goodbody & Co.
which was very interesting. "In our
market letter OF October t." the letter
read. I'VE predicted that within three
months after the war stops the prices of
both copper metal and steel products
will have declined 20 per cent. from
their present prices. We now wish to
amend this prediction by saying that II
row seems probable that IS per cent.
declines in copper and steel will occur
even before the war Is officially ended"

One reason for choosing the low priced
railway shares as the next step in de-
veloping public participation in specu-
lation would seem to be that the pur-
chase or such issues does not call for
any appreciable expansion of the aggre-
gate of brokers' loans. The other is that
because OF their ordinary insignihcance
IN the general movement in stocks ac-
cumulation in them becomes more SIM
pie. So 1t was with Minneapolis and ST.
Louis yesterday, AS wei as POck Island.
St Louis and San Francisco and South-
ern Railway. Nothing Of a constructive
nature was involved in the rise. II was
simply that having seen the demonstra-
ton in Texas and Pacific the speculative
community found II the easiest way out
OF dulness to turn TO other shares of q
similar character. The advances were
both due TO the days buying and TO the
absorption that has been carried out
during n week of narrow trading.
