NEW DEVICE TO
SAVE EAR DRUMS

WASHINGTON, May %. = Ameri-
can doctors have invented a fdevice
for the protection of soldiers ear
drums. 1t is believed to be super
ior to any produced by any nation at
war
The secret OF the new protective
device is closely guarded, but yith-
In a short time every man serving
under General Pershing will be equip
ped with a set.
Although pleased with the inven.
ton, officers admit that it cannot be
depended upon to prevent deafness
and intimate that when the full
strength of America is felt in the war
az least 5000 men will be rendered
totally or partially deaf by the heavy
gunfire every year.
Arrangements are almost COM
plete for opening the new army hos
pital for deaf mutes at Cape May,
n. j. Through the cooperation of
the American Association to Promote
Teaching of Speech to the Deaf, six
teachers are ready for service. They
will teach the returning soldiers lip
reading. The men will not be permit
ted to learn the hand signs. as most
deaf persons now converse solely by
lip reading.
The men can learn lip reading in
at least six months. II is estimated
that of the first 5000 men to lose
their sense of hearing and ability to
speak from shell shock or other
cause, about 6 per cent will be totally
deaf and 20 per cent handicapped
for social and business intercourse.
For the work OF curing defectsain
speech and hearing a special section
has been created in the division of
physical reconstruction of the medi'

RECORD CROPS
PREDICTED FOR
KANSAS WHEAT

TOPEKA, Kan, March 28.-Kansas
will answer the cry of the world for
food this year, by contributing mil
lions of bushels of wheat to be dOled |
out to America, the allies and the few
remaining neutrals.
Despite reported threats of reduced
acreage if higher prices were not fixed
for the 1918 crop, the best informa
ton obtainable indicates the appeal
to the patriotism of the farmers made,
by President Wilson in his announce
ment of the wheat price schedule will
meet with an overwhelming response
from the wheat-growing sections.
Last year, Kansas farmers sowed
100000 acres of wheat. Only about
100000 acres of this was harvested,
owing to adverse weather conditions
and the net yield was approximately
forty million bushels. An equal, If not
greater acreage, which seems assured,
will yield a much greater crop, with
fair weather conditions this year.
The Kansas state defense council
anticipating the laboring needs of the
farmers, is rapidly mobili2ing the boy
power" of the state to meet the def
cheney caused by enlistment and the
draft. Through the county councils,
Boys Working ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
to include every youth too young to
serve the colors, but anxious to par
ticipate in the struggle for democracy
is being organized. These boys will
take the places in the harvest fields
left by the men lover there"
Hundreds of Kansas schools are
holding six day sessions, at the sug.
gestion of Governor Arthur Capper, in
order to close school earlier in the
summer thereby releasing thousands
of youths and male school teachers to
assist the farmers.

uan,..r Of IN. A Killed In France.

Member of Co. A Killed In france
So far as known Edward J. Mason
~ 5prairie Grove is the first member
Of Go. A of Springdale to meet
death in France. The following ac-
count of his death is taken from the
Prairie Grove Herald:
4 letter was received here last
Friday from the War Department at
washington announcing that Edward
I Mason of Co. NJ 38th INIT. was
killed in action in France on July 10 10
This letter was addressed to John n.
Mason at Prairie Grove, MISS, Out
as there is no such place IN MISS,
the letter was sent here. EDWARD
!. Mason is a son of James henry
Mason of Prairie Grove, and the fact
that the letter Of notification was
addressed tc- John H. Mason instead
of Jas. Henry Mason, is regarded as
a clerical error, and there is no doubt
that the boy killed in France is one OF
our home boys But the matter
has been taken up with the war de-
partment for verifcation.
Edward J. Mason of Co. NJ 3oth
Inf. A. E. F. in France, is a son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Jas. Henry Mason of
Prairie Grove He enlisted in Co.
A National Guards at Springdale in
June 1916. and was in service with
his Company on the Mexican border
during the winter of 1916-1s17. He
returned home from the border in
April 1917, and with his Company
was mustered into Federal service and
sent to Fort Logan II. Roots, but re-
NAMED there short time when Co,
A was sent to Camp Beauregard for
training. With his command he
left Camp Beauregard last June for
overseas
A letter was received by his par
ents written by Edward on July IL
Just two days before he was killed.
Mr. Mason has another son Mac Ma
son in France, but has not heard from
him for several months.
This is the fourth Prairie Grove
