 Major Elmore declared in talking to
 me yesterday, that nothing could do more toward educating the people or this community, or any other communi- ty, in regard to the work of the Vo- cational education by the government
 than to quote from the government rel atively to the work
 In the first place, charity is not
 needed" says the government For
 the first time in the history of this or
 any other nation, Uncle Sam has put
 his war pensions on a proper basis as an insurance obligation. Expensive
 prepa rations have been made for talk
 ing care of the disabled boys, not as beggers but as self-respecting men.
 This is a substantial return in grati-
 tude. However, the best return the
 country can make for the service these
 injured men have rendered is to give them their opportunity to perform, in the years after the war, the same qual- ity of national service they have rem
 dered during the war. In this work the help of the employer is indispensable. The boys are eager to get back into civil life You should be just as eager
  The federal board calls upon every em- ployer to aid in the intelligent dis charge of this task The only way these disabled men can perform that con tinued service to the nation which they have rendered on the battle field is as able and efficient workers.
 Further. the federal board will see | that these men are re-employed; that ! they make good; and that they receive | a square deal. What job will I get when I have finished this training l stunt?
 This is the first question that a han dicapped man offered this opportunity asks. The trouble with most education l is that the educatee-if one may coin /, training leads. He insists upon seeing where he is going; and he usually | wastes no time iN being educated for a | job unless he can spot the job 1tSelf and can be persuaded that the only
 right road to the job is through a di- | rect, concrete course of training such
 as those prescribed by the federal | board
 | For this reason the board must be 1 able to point the training toward a ] specific occupation waiting for the man when he is industrially fit. It must be l an occupation in which he will be | kept, not on a charity basis, but be- l cause he can make good. He must nave
 the satisfaction of feeling that, han l dicapped though he may be in body, he 1 is doing a mans work
 "There are few men so handicapped by maiming or disease that, given proper training for a suitable occupa- l tion. they cannot make good. The fed eral government will provide the prop

 auately supported. No job will be asked for on any ground except that Of the mans efficiency. If he does not make good he will be taken away and, if

The Wonderful Call

 When Call of Motherhood Is Felt.

Of all the most vital times in a wom- ans life the coming of baby is fraught witb the greatest meaning. Care should be exercised to insure that the crisis is passed in safety.
 Apprehension is avoided by the timely use of Mothers Friend, preparation of penetrating oils and medicinal ingredi- ents, which renders the muscles, cords, tendons and fragments pliable. and thus tension is avoided.

HIS CAR NOT IN RACE.
GOES INTO COURT To
RECOVER WAGER MADE

An echo of the Ell Paso Phoenix road
race. which finished in this city on the
opening day of the state fair, was
heard in the superior court yesterday.
Call Messner, as bettor, and r. d.
Roper. as stakeholder, were sued for
$1,000 by Walter E. Lewis of Glendale,
who is alleged TO have bet Messner
$500 that his Mercedes Simplex would
beat Calls Hudson blue Bird" in the
FL Paso to Phoenix road race, which
began November 2.
Lewis says Roper was the stake
holder, and that after his Mercedes
Simplex failed TO arrive in FL Paso in
time to start in the race, Roper turned
over the $1,000 to Messner instead OF
returning the money to him.
No written form of wager contract
is mentioned in the suit filed yester-
day, but Lewis gives all the details of
the affair from his point of view. The
wager was made October %. he said,
when both bettors gave Roper, the al
legged stakeholder, cashiers checks for
$1,000.
Ascertadning on the morning of No
vember that his car had not reached
FL Paso and was not in the race, Lewis
says he notified both Messner and
Roper verbally that he wanted his
money back. This was refused, &C
cording to Lewis, who says he then
wrote them each letter, notifying
them that the wager was annulled. Ac-
cording to Lewis, the letter to Mess
ner was as follows:
You are hereby notified that my
wager contract with you, re Ell PaSo-
| Phoenix automobile race ending to-
day. is by me repudiated and is not to
{ be carried out, and you are notified
not to receive my money or the
cashiers check delivered by me to r. D
Roper, as stakeholder, under my wager
with you in said raee.
| Walter e. Lewis
These letters were delivered on the
afternoon of November 3, Lewis de-
clares, at about the time of the end o,

Mrs. Frankforter furthermore claims
that the tax is discrimination be-
tween small and slender persons and
large portly women. and is in violation
of the constitutional rights of women"
"Corsets are an absolute necessity"
said Mrs. Frankforter. "A woman
connot stand correctly unless she IS
properly corseted and neither can she
dress correctly without stays. 1t is
essential to the poise of the figure to
wear corsets."
Mrs. Frankforter asserts that 1t
would be a different proposition if
women had never worn corsets, but
that practically every woman has worn
them since girlhood, while her mother
and grandmother before her also wore
stays.
