ing volunteered the day Italy sided
with the allies. Still all were avowed
anti-militarists previous to 1914. some
of them having served prison sentences
for their agitation. Deputy De Am
bris, chairman of the mission, whose
long record of opposition to militarism,
under the laws of Italy, barred him
from an officers commission, served
as private thruout the war.
The mission represents all parts of
Italy and most of the leading trades
and industries as well as the leading
central labor bodies of the country.
The two delegates from Bologna rep
resent "the Transport Labor Coop
erative" apd the Building Trades Co.
operative furnish labor directly to
the government without any employer
or middleman. There are at present
important projects before the Italian
government, to which it is giving fav-
orable consideration, to provide land
on reasonable terms for the Agricul-
tural Cooperative, composed of agri-
cultural laborers and to furnish ships
for the transport workers.
BE Ambris, the head of the mission,
was the leader in the most important
strike of agricultural laborers of his
tory which occurred ten years ago in
Parma. This movement resulted in
the establishment of n temporary re-
publican government in that section.
The delegation contains a member
of the Italian parliament from Milan,
the vice-mayor of Naples and city
councillors of Rome and Carrara.

COLORADO SPRINGS
FIREMEN QUIT JOBS

The entire fire department out
side of the chief and assistant chief
in Colorado Springs rendered their
designations to take effect Mon
day, December 16 The reason for
this action was that the budget
provided for an increase in all the
salaries of the city employees ex-
cept the fire fighters.
Thomas Spellacy, general presi-
dent of the International Fire
Fighters Union, arrived in Colorado
Springs this week from Washing
ton, d. c. He succeeded in having
the city council of that city reopen
the case, but the council did not
grant any raise to the firemen
there. As a result the entire de-
partment rendered their resigna-
tions.

WAR RISK INSURANCE.

Some soldiers and sailors are drop
ping their war risk insurance because
the relatives they named as benefit
ciaries have failed to receive insur-
ance certificates from Washington.
The Colorado council of defense ad-
vises that the insurance is in effect
even tho no certificate is received. The
great volume of work necessary in the
department at Washington is the
cause of the delay. The certificate
is no part of the contract of insur-
ance-it is merely evidence, that the
contract exists.

Atlanta.-The 100000 worth Of
highway construction in the various
counties of Georgia, which was sus-
pended or delayed on account Of the
war, may begin at once. is the an
nouncement Of Judge T. e. Patterson,
chairman of the Georgia highways
commission. Notice to this effect was
sent out to the county commissioners
OF the state, following the receipt OF
a telegram from Washington that the
restrictions on all such construction
had been removed by the war indus
tries board. There are four or more
projects pending in the state. The
most important Of these is the plan
ned construction of the Norcross-Deca-
tur road to cost $4,000 and the road
from Atlanta to Macon, on which Is
TO be spent 100000. The grading
of these roads has been under way
for several weeks, and it is expected
that actual construction will begin
at once. One OF the most important
highway projects in south Georgia is
the steel bridge project, Montezuma to
Oglethorpe, to cost 100000. There
are q other projects in the state of
lesser importance.

Discussion Of the "after-the war pc

believing that It is too early to predict
which effect victory will have on
women and their mode of living. One
coutourier predicts that the most elab-
crate things will be made and women
should wear them as an expression OF
victory. Banquets and receptions In
honor of foreign visitors and our re-
turning men will demand such clothes,
and 1t is really up to the women to
heal their heartaches as best they can
and lift the spirit of the country. The

The symptoms of kidney and bladder
troubles are often very distressing and

lead to more dangerous kidney troubles.

many people say, soon heals and strength
ems the kidneys, is splendid kidney,
liver and bladder medicine, and, being
an herbal compound, has gentle heal
ing effect on the kidneys, which is al
most Immediately noticed in most cases
by those who use it.
A trial will convince anyone who may
be in need of it. Better get bottle from
your nearest drug store, and start treat

The German Idea.

"The German idea of good soldier

who kills the most babies, murders
the most women and poisons the most
wells is the best soldier, according to

youth who said to his father:
Father, have saved $10-the first
money 1 ever saved in my life. Natur-
ally, 1 feel rather proud of myself.
