would nave LoaterS Arrested and

In a letter received by the county
council of defense Governor Dorsey
advises that idlers be requested to
volunteer for some useful labor or
be conscripted and forced to work.
ARREST and convict all Migrants, Z"
he said, then let the judge probate
such Migrants to parties in need of
labor or to someone selected either
by the judge or by your council who
will devote his time to seeing that
such Migrants are worked under
some plan equable and just to the
citizens of the community in which
the vagrant is convicted for the
production of food and feed, and,
after that, in a way as to forestall
a fuel shortage"
The governor sets forth that the
plan, if put into effect, will not on
ly increase production, but will rem
der a most valuable service to peo-
pie who have been deprived of a
means of support through the draft
and will force many worthless peo-
pie to go to work for their families.

MONTHLY DRAFTING DECIDED
ON BY The WAR DEPARTMENT
Next CONSUMPTION Will Be 100000
Men a Month For Five Months,
Beginning Probably in May.

To avoid abnormal dislocation of
labor the war department has decid-
ed to draft the next army of 500, 1000
men at the rate Of 100000 a month
for five months. 1t is believed that
Secretary of War Baker will follow
the advice of his general staff and
begin the next draft in May. The
order is ready, but has not yet been
signed by the secretary of war.
The war department has announc-
ed that it does not feel bound to call
maximum of only 100000 under
the draft law. The law is translated
by officials to mean that any num-
Der of men up to 100000 may be
drafted if necessary to keep the
draft army of 100000 men at full
strength"

Strain of Fiyinu.

A-ero-neurOsis is the name which
is sometimes given to nervous trou-
bles brought about by the strain OF
flying. 1t has been said that an air
mans life consists of "long spells Of
intense fear" He has to endure In
tense cold, rain, wind, and fog, the
nerve-racking noise of the engine, the
an~ti-aircraft fire. and to loop, spin,
dive, or sidesllp. apparently out of
control, to deceive an opponent. An
interesting nerve test has been de-
vised In France for selecting the best
type of airmen for fighting. Around
his chest is a "eumograph, In his left
hand a tremhler. and around two
fingers of his right hand a pneumatic
"doigtier." Behind the candidate a
revolver shot Is fired or a magnesium
flare is set off, and a record of the eff
feet on his nerves is obtained by e
of stylets writing on a blackened re-
volving cylinder.

AS CHINAMAN SEES KAISER
Not Hard to See That This Student
Has Sympathy With the
"AlLHighest."

Here are some comments on the
kaiser from the pen of a Chinese stu
dent, an exchange says:
1.-THE German kaiser is not the SUI
perior man as declphered by the Chi
nese literature; he is surely a mean
fellow containing much fraudish cum
ming in his deceited heart. The supe-
rior man is shown in the merits of
excellent heart with much loving kind
ness to all peoples; the mean fellow
is displayed in the black heart of the
unregenerated devils of hell with much
kindness only to himself.
I'm the history of China was an EN-
peror who burn the books and slowed
the scholars to extinct the civilization
of the peaceful inhabitants but he
was not success In this crafty tricks,
for the civilizations could never be
by such dishonorable -barbar-
ism means. Now the German kaiser
he also awfully wishing to slave the
people and extinct the civilizations of
the universe; he also destroy the lit
erature books, and the arts, and the
ships, and mess the people of allies
nations. . But he will not sue

LONG FAMOUS IN HISFeM
Vielssitudes Of Old City Of Jerusalem
May Be Said to Be Without
Parallel.

The capture Of Jerusalem by Eng
fish troops recalls the tragic and fas-
cinating story of that day. which car
ries us back through the mist of ages
to the days when the throne OF David
was established within Its walls. From
that date we pass to the glories OF
the temple built by Solomon, which for
centuries was to stand as the center
and pivot of the Jewish nation and
faith. The time came, however, when
her days We're numbered, and the drama
Of Calvary was followed a few years
later by the onslaught of Titus, the
Roman emperor, who encompassed the
city round on every side and leveled
1t to the ground.
Round its ruined walls Saracen and
Crusader were to fight continuously for
its possession, and Christian knights
focked from all lands to the rescue Of
the holy places, until In 1899 Godfrey
de Bouillon defeated his enemies and
was chosen as the first Christian king
of Jerusalem.
Following this, for a considerable
period the city remained In Christian
hands. until In 1917 1t vas captured by
the Turks.

LONG FAMOUS PORT
Three Nations Have Held City Which
the Germans Are Now So Eager
to Possess.

Since the beginning of the war
Calais has been an objective of the
German army. It is a familiar name
to those who have crossed the 26 miles
Of nasty choppy water that lies be-
tween Calais and the English port of
Dover.
Fifty years ago Calais was regard
ed as a fortress of the first class, but
II would now probably not be able to
defend itself many days against mod
ern artillery. In 1916, after the bat
tie Of Crecy, Calais was besieged by
the English King Edward III, holding
out resolutely by the bravery Of Jean
de Vienne. It's inhabitants were saved
from the cruel fate with which Ed
ward menaced them by the devotion
of seven of It's chief citizens, who In
turn were themselves spared at the
prayer of Queen Phillipa, this event
having been commemorated In a wide
ly known historical painting.
Calais remained in the hands of the
English until 1858, when It vas taken
by the duke of Guise, at the head Of
10000 men, from an ill-provided Eng
llsh garrison only 800 strong, after a
siege of seven days. This loss led to
the remark of an English queen, who
declared that when she died the word
calais" would be found imprinted on
her heart. Calais was held by the
Spaniards from 1896 to 1898. but was
restored to the French by treaty.
On the chalk cliffs of Dover stands
a gun, several centuries old, on which
is engraved the doggerel:
Feed me well and keep me clean,
And I'll send a ball to Calais green"
This "a fiction, but modern artil-
lery could easily accomplish the feat.

Oldest Living West Pointer.

General Horatio Gates Gibson, the
oldest living graduate of West Point,
veteran of the Mexican civil and In
dian wars, has just celebrated his
91st birthday In good health and
spirits.
Among the guests of the soldier on
his birthday were a few surviving
members Of the Aztec Club, which
was formed by officers of the service
In the city Of Mexico seventy-one years
ago. There is only a squad of tbs
original members of this club living.
Gen. Gibson is one of them and Is the
organizations president.
II is probable that this veteran
thought as a young soldier, after cam
paigning from Vera Cruz to the city
OF Mexico under the leadership OF
Gen. Winfield Scott, that the Mexican
war was a good deal Of q war. 1t is
likely. also, after serving as an ar
tillery chieftain through the cam
paigns from 81 to '65, that he thought
the civil war was about the biggest
thing In the shape of a wal that ever
happened or could happen. Today,
this man of service, 81 years OF age,
Is under the necessity of readjusting
his earlier thoughts on the compare
tive magnitude of conflicts between
nations.-St. Louis Post Dispatch.

FRENCH GO BACK TO CANDLES
Scarcity Of Materials Used for Light
ina Has Led to Revival OF
an Ancient Art.

While the war has wrecked some In
dustries I'm France, II has at the same
time created new ones and revived
older crafts. An excellent and inter
csting example of the latter is the art
Of candlestick making, which has
taken on a new lease of life. Even In
some of the big towns there are houses
which are not supplied with gas, where
before the wal petroleum or spirit was
used for lighting purposes. Now that
the use of these is restricted closely,
has to be made to the old
fashioned candle.
This is true In the country especial
IL where candlesticks are in great de-
mand, and every n is buying them
according to his means or fancy. At
first they were made of copper, but
when that metal became scarce brass
was employed. Some OF the modern
examples have several branches and
are very artistic.
A domestic art me.a' morker at AK,
who has specialized in this kind Of
work, and has become quite a celebrity,
has Just constructed a series of tall
iron candlesticks of very solid proper
tiOns which can hold several candles.
They have been critically inspected by
art metal critics and are claimed to
be true works of art, and to appeal to
all lovers of MISUNDERSTANDING
