MUST REGISTER
 0N DATE NAMED
Chairman of County Defense Council Appeals to Men From IS to 45
 To Observe Day.

To All Citizens of Jackson County:
 On the 18th day of September the President has asked all citizens of the United States between the ages of IS to 45, both inclusive, to register at the respective voting percincts.
 The request of the President is a order of the Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States and all citizens with the above ages should obey cheerfully and glad ly, but if any person within the above ages fails to register on that day the penalty will be heavy and will be by imprisonment for not more than one year.
 None of our citizens will wilfully fail to register, but for fear that many will not know of this order, all persons are requested to advise per- sons within the ages and urge their prompt attendance at the registration booths.
 Never before has the Nation been called to arise in it's full strength; never before has the occasion arisen when so vast force must be raised. We are not responsible for the oc- casion, but it having arrived we will meet it with gladness and throw our whole soul into it.
 The Hun is on the run! Let's keep him moving.
 Jos. M. Stayton,
 Chairman County Council of
 Defense.

 Dear Jimmie: Your very nice let ter was received the 18th. It was very kind of you to write to me. l surely do appreciate it.
 You asked if I expected to go over seas. Yes, do, but no one knows when. They are organizing lot of new brigades; in fact, sixteen of them, and that will call for more than 500 officers of my grade and maybe more. If l am sent to one of these outfits I will not leave this country under three or four months, but one never knows.
 They are enlarging the camp quite lot; they have sausage" and twenty one planes. Not all the planes have been up yet, but there are some of them "upstairs" most all the time. Then there is the artillery of 72 guns working on the target range, which with other activities here make quite show.

 British progress through the Wo- tan line is yet unchecked. Disorgan- ization in the German ranks is re- ported and it seems to be more than a possibility that the enemy com mand will not be able to reconstruct defensive formations even in time to hold the British temporarily at the canal du Nord positions. British progress represents an advance of nearly four miles since yesterday be- yond the southern section of the fla nous Drocourt- Quaint switch line at Queant. The British are now within five and one-half miles of Cambrai and six miles from Douai.

DOPE.

u is agreed that a great deal of good
has resulted from the Harrison law
regulating the traffic in habit-forming
drugs, which went into effect three
years ago. But il is also agreed that
the measure is not a complete rem
edy.
10 has enabled the government to
restrict the dope traffic somewhat
II has made it harder for people to get
drugs, and has thus tended to prevent
the further spread of drug habits.
But opium, morphine heroin, codeine,
cocaine. etc. are still consumed in this
country in quantities far beyond all
legitimate needs The drugs are still
too accessible 10 the general public
Many doctors and druggists are still
too lax in their distribution. There is
vast underground traffic that
ought TO be curbed And too little is
being done along practical, curative
lines to free victims from their bond
age
Experts say it is desirable that the
rules laid down for doctors, dentists,
veterinarians. druggists or other legit
innate dispensers of these dangerous
drugs be made more strict That
could be done by federal enactment.
Still more important, perhaps, is the
demand for uniform State law, dove
failing in with the federal law and
utilizing police powers TO restrict the
sale and use of the drugs. The prob
lem will not be solved as long as any
State neglects this duty.
These Is a special reason why such
measures should be undertaken
promptly. The country is rapidly go
ing dry" Within year prohibition
may be I'm force throughout the Unit
ed States, through ratification of the
federal amendment. II is a familiar
fact that as liquor goes out, dope" is
likely to come in. Alcohol habitues,
deprived of their drink turn to drugs.
Therefore as prohibition of the liquor
traffic proceeds, effective prohibition
of the dope traffic must keep pace with
it, Otherwise we shall have a worse
evil than the one we are eliminating.

PREPARING TO RESTORE TEMPLE
OE SOIOMON.

The Jews are preparing to restore
the temple of Solomon. The whole
world is being stirred by a startling
movement of the Jews toward their
homeland. Ten years ago there were
only 1000 Jews in the city of Jeru-
salem. there are now 100000. More
than 100000 Jews are found in the
colonies recently established in Pales-
tine, These are proving successful;
good crops are being raised
More than S20.O00,000 is being in
vested in railroads. Within the next
few months Jerusalem will have be-
come a city of electricity: rails are
being laid for electric cars The Jews
have S5.000,000 in a Jerusalem bank.
They have purchased a large amount
of land.
Until forty years ago the land of
Palestine was arid There were few
inhabitants. There is a prophecy
which reads, In the last days l will
pour out upon you again the latter
rains" Rain has come in abundance
in the last few years; Palestine again
blossoms. Ten thousand olive trees
have been planted in Samaria.
Il is believed that Jerusalem will
become as of old the market place of
the Orient, and that Palestine will
again flow with milk and honey.
