Lutherans to Act
On War Work Union

Des Moines, Iowa, Sept. 27.-Luth-
Grams from all over the United States
will meet in Chicago November q to 9
to determine the future of the Luth-
eran Brotherhood of America, organ
lied for the purpose of conducting
community and religious work IN the
environments of the United tSates
during the war.
The brotherhood now has more than
10000 members, with chapters in most
of the Lutheran churches of the coun-
try. 1t maintained community houses
at many of the environments, and ex-
pended more than 81 100000 in war
work.
The coming convention is the first
of the organization, and will map out
a program for continuation OF the
operations of the brotherhood along
lines somewhat similar to the Y. M.
c.. A., but with particular attention
to the problem of Americanization
Many of the Lutherans of the Unit
ed States are of foreign birth or de-
scent and plans of the brotherhood
call for particularly active cam
paign in the Scandinavian communl-
ties of the northwest.
A committee headed by Senator
Knute of Minnesota, has been appoint
ed to request President Wilson to de-
liver one of the addresses of the con-
vention.
The Rev. J. A. O. Stub of Mime
apolis is president of the brotherhood:
National headquarters are maintained
at Des Moines.

Detroit Not Bound
By Daylight Saving

Detroit, Mich, Sept. 27.-Detroit's
official timepieces will tick along
without interruption when the clocks
of the remainder of the country are
set back one hour on October 26, in
conformity with the provisions of the
expiring daylight savings law.
The city council under the terms
of an ordinance just adopted has de-
creed that eastern standard shall be
retained as the official time for the
city.
Some confusion is expected to re-
suit for while owing to the fact
that railroad time and that through
out the state will be one hour slower
than official time here. Detroit, how
ever, instituted eastern standard time
some years before the federal day
light saving law was enacted, and its
proponents declare the confusion will
be short-liVed

Sanitation Need of
Good Farm Buildings

Fayetteville, Sept. 27.-Farm
buildings are an important part OF
the farm, and should not be built
until plans have been carefully
made. In making the plans, santa
ton is very important item Tor
consideration. The greatest germl-
eide known is sunlight, says DR.. W.
L. Blocker, head of the department
of bacteriology and pathology OF the
University of Arkansas College OF
Agriculture, and the more sunlight
which enters the building the more
sanitary it will be. tuberculosis and
hog cholera flourish in dark, damp,
poorly drained and ventilated build
ings. Sunlight makes a building
lighter, warmer, and more dry and
pleasant for livestock and for the
man who works in the barn.
All buildings should have dry
floors, and these should be easily
cleaned. Concrete is perhaps the
ideal flooring material, for it is
quickly and easily cleaned, and If
properly laid and surfaced it will be
neither damp nor slippery. Another
advantage of concrete floor is that
it is absorbent, and does not pro-
vide breeding places for disease
breeding bacteria.

British Trains
Now Much Slower

London, Aug. 26-(Correspondence
of The Associated ress)-British
trains are slowing down and in some
instances hours are being added to
journeys.
This is particularly true of trains
going out of London. The pre-War
time of a train from London to Bir
mingham was two hours. Now it is
two hours and half. TO Liverpool
the pre-war time was three hours 35
minutes, now it q four hours and a
half.
The northeast coast has suffered Sc
verely. The Scotch express service,
formerly the best of all, is now looked
upon as quite the worst. For exam
pie the journey from Euston station
to Aberdeen, which during the rail
road race in August, 1895, was ac-
complished in hours, 80 minutes,
now occupies nearly IA hours.
The trains which carry pleasure
seekers to the coast resorts in the
south have also slowed down, and
some of the best have disappeared,
never to return under government
control, many persons believe.
opponents OIL government cOnCiOi
point out that only one company has
emerged from the war with an i'm
proved service-the Southeastern &
Chatham. AS long as any one can
remember the Kentish lines were
spoken of with ridcule and abuse, but
for the summer of 1919 Kent is the
only part of the country enjoying an
express service which is better than
the best provided before the war.

BOOTLECCERS SHIP
BOOZE TO TEXAS
IN IRON SAFES
Federal Agents, Suspicious of
Many Arrivals of Safes,
Discover New Plan

Granger, Texas, Sept. 26-How
many thousand quarts or gallons of
whisky have been brought into Ran
ger and other oil towns of Texas by
surreptious means during the last
several months there is no way of
knowing All kinds of methods have
been adopted, and in many instances
successfully applied, for evading the
law against the transportation or sale
of intoxicating liquors.
Local authorities of the different
towns and counties do not seem able
men who are employing the illicit
traffic, but agents of the United
States Department of Justice are
making a wonderful record in the oil
region of running out the bootleggers
and confscating their stocks.
Unique Scheme
1t was due to the unremitting eff
forts of these government agents that
one of the most unique bootlegging
schemes ever discovered in this Sec
ton was recently brought to light.
Suspicion was aroused few weeks
ago that large shipments of whisky
were being brought into Ranger and
Eastland by means of steel record
safes. Those depository vaults are
of large size and each one is capable
of holding big quantity Of liquor.
1t was noticed that remarkably large
demand seemed to exist for these
safes.
Detectives were assigned to the
case and it was not long before the
discovery was made that bOotleggers
were making a regular practice Of
hauling these large safes through the
different oil camps, in the pretense of
being freighters, and whenever a
thirsty man was encountered the door
of the safe was opened and the liquor
dealt out at so much a drink. In some
instances sales were made in quart
and gallon lots.
whisky" Safes.
In the first haul four safes were
confiscated and when opened they
were each found to contain 500 quarts
of high grade whisky. These safes
were in the express office awaiting
claimants. Other safes in the pro-
ducing fields were also found to be
filled with the contraband goods.
Further Investigations indicate that
the use of safes for shipping whisky
into Texas has been widespread and
it is the belief of government officers
that a strong organization is back Of
the big scheme. 1t is shown by
freight and express waybills that
many of the steel depository safes
have been received at German, East
land, Ranger, Wichita Falls and Burk-
burnett during the last several weeks.
The bootleggers have covered their
tracks well. So far as can be learned
the name of only one man who is al
legged to be connected with the illicit
business is known to the officers.
1t is reported that the safes which
have been coming into Texas filled
with whisky were shipped from st.
Louis and Joplin, Mo.

China's Christians
Aid Baptist Drive

Nashville, Sept. Missionaries
of the Southern Baptist Convention
and native Christians in China have
formed prayer band to pray until
the Baptist rs Million Campaign has
succeeded, DR.. L. r. Scarborough,
general director of the campaign, has
been advised in letters from workers
in that country. The missionaries are
not going to content themselves with
praying, however. They are going
to give, too. A woman missionary
who draws salary of less than $75
per month, sent check for 500 and
said she would send $3.50 more as her
offering for the first year of the five
year campaign.

Here's Ship That
Is It's Own Cargo

Vancouver, 3. c., Sept. pa ship
that is it's own cargo, a cargo of
lumber that propels itself-such is
the nature of one of the queerest
craft ever known to the world which
within a few weeks will leave Van
couver mill on its way to England.
This odd ship, the dream of John
Arbuthnot, former mayor Of Winni-
peg and now resident of Victoria,

Furber Lumber company, backed by

capable of giving the craft six-knot
speed. Two months after the vessel
leaves it's builders" it is expected, it
will have been dismantled in Eng

delivered to buyers, and the $4,000
worth of machinery compasses and
other equipment on it's way back to

War Makes 'Gypsies'
Of the Residents
OF Central Europe

Budapest, Aug. 2S-(Correspond-
ence of The Associated Press)-All
Central Europe seems on the move. In
railway journey from the eastern
Swiss boundary across German Aus
tra, parts of Szecho-Slovakia and as
far into Poland as Darsaw and Lem
burg, back into Austria proper and
thence to this city, an Associated
Press correspondent saw dozens of
long trains crowded even beyond the
capacity of the cars and with every
platform filled with men, women and
children and the nondescript baggage
of the European peasant. Bundles
and chests and cloth bags and paper
packages, straw and wicker baskets,
rope tied, were strapped on every
available space.
Where the people are going or why
no one seems to know. 1t is appar
emily a general reshifting and milling
about of the population.
The trains themselves are wretched
enough. There is not passenger car
in Europe that has not been used for
troops transport. They are filthy be-
yond words, nearly all the glass gone
and the windows filled with rough
boards or rusty sheets of iron or tin.
The paint has long since gone, and
some still bear the faded lines of ear
ly war camaflage. Lubricating oil
is one of the scarcest of commodities
in these regions and the cars creak
along over rusted rails, drawn by
shabby engines.
Travel is a hazard Schedules are
virtually non-existing and these I'M
certain trains creep along as the fuel
supply permits. Stops in desolate
country regions of hours at a time
are not unusual and in most parts
the railway Bullets that once supplied
the traveller with meals are closed, so
that it is imperative to carry ones
own provisions.
A passenger on one Of the Orient
express trains said that at one point
in Southern Europe the conductor took
up a collection from passengers to
buy wood for the locomotive.

Canadian Mounted
Has More Than 1000
In Service Now

Regina, Sask., Sept 27.-For the
first time in the history of the
Royal Northwest Mounted Police, it's
total strength is in excess of 1,6O0
men. Many former members of the
force who were permitted to enlist
and who fought in Flanders and
France have again donned their scar
let uniforms. Regina is northwest
headquarters.
There is possibility that an air
plane unit will be added particularly
for scouting trips into the far north,
but it is understood, thatgno changes
in the general complement have
been considered. The plan under con-
sideration is to organize few patrol
stations in wild regions to provide
emergency supplies for air policemen.
