SUGAR AS A NEWsPAPER PRE-.

Continental Edition of the London
 Daily Mail)


 Daily MaiD
 The present shortage of sugar in Paris has led to an amusing display of newspaper enterprise. Sugar has been so scarce in the city that for weeks there has not been enough to supply the small monthly ration allowed by the sugar card. But now the journal LAvenir offers to sell to all readers who have paid one years subscription ten pounds of sugar at cost price. The newspaper purchased a shipload ot sugar, which it is now finding no diff ficulty in disposing of at it's offices.

BROWN A QUEENS COLOR
(Kansas City Starr

Brown is the color most often chosen for the new autumn things. It is a hue which was much affected by the beautiful Austrian, Marie Antoin- ette. and consequently became the rage with both men and women of the gay court of Louis XVI. In those days il was known as puce or flea color, talk ing its name from a most unattractive source-the back of flea.

set the entire officialdom of the town.
He was principal Of the high school,

Inc officers of the fleet :,so were pro-
vided with tennis court, and a golf

there. The result is that every man
on the fleet has plenty of healthy out

Signal Corps Is in Need Of Men

needed for the first army of 5OO,OOO.
and it is proposed to teach telegra-
pliers the elementary knowledge of
physics and electrical engineering;
high school graduates and college men
will be given this instruction, and a
course of telegraphy in addition.
Will Furnish Instructors.
The signal corps will furnish expert
telegraph instructors, and the colleges
and universities are being requested to
furnish the theoretical and laboratory
instruction. Young men desiring to
avail themselves Of this opportunity
should apply at once. If found eligi-
BILE they will be enlisted, assigned to
classes and receive army pay, food,
quarters and medical attention during
the course of instruction, which is ex-
pected to occupy from three to five
months, according to the ability Of the
student.
In time Of peace the signal corps Is
perhaps the least heard of branch of
the army. In time Of stress it Is a
most vitality necessary arm. It is the
NERVES" of the army, and as such, Il
major factor in the conduct of mill
| tary affairs. In fact, the last three
years of war abroad seem to indicate
it as the paramount element in the
control of modern warfare.
Congress has recently doubled the
pay of the private and increased the
remuneration of each noncOmmissioned
officer. The signal corps has greater
percentage Of noncommissioned officers
than any other branch.
The pay of a corporal is now $50 per
month, in addition to food and cloth
ing and medical attendance when
needed. The rating of sergeant is
now $44, with the same subsistence
that of a sergeant, first-class SOL, and
the master signal electrician-and
many telegraphers have most Of the
requirements in this direction-$S1
The signal corps Is mounted service
A knowledge Of horses, if not already
possessed, must be acquired, and 6
healthful life in the open is one of the
most attractive offerings Of this branch
of the service.

STONE AGE WEAPON FOUND
Flint Dug Up in Trench Found to Be
Club Head Used in Prehis-
toric Days.

London.-An Australian soldier dig
ging a trench in France found a
strangely Clipped knob Of flint and
fastened to it a strong handle, thus
converting it into knobkerry, which
he always carried in his belt. He
used it to crack German heads in
trench raids.
When he brought it to England the
interest of antiquarians was attracted
by the flint. Investigations and COM
parsons resulted in authorities agree
ing that it was a war weapon Of the
Stone Age, used then in exactly the
same manner as the Australian was
using it in 1917 and showing that In
the Stone Age men fought over the
same battlefields.

Ghouls Dig Up Grave of Wealthiest
ard Most Popular Man in
Southern Ohio.

Bethel, O.-Ghouls dug up the grave
of Daniel Hill, eighty-four years old,
of this town, and cut out the dead
mans heart. They then covered the
coffin again and made their escape. A
box of burnt matches and spots on the
tombstone were the only clews left.
Hill, one of the wealthiest and most
popular men in southern Ohio had died
of natural causes. according to his ply
sician. A few days after the burial
the sexton became suspicious and had
the grave dug up. He found that the
coffin had been sawed open.

On the Hunt for Patriotic Teleg-
raphers for Service in
the War.
TRAINING CAMP IS PLANNED
Former Operators Are Urged to Re-
turn to the Key to Release Eligi-
bIes for Service with "the He
roes Of the Army"

New York-The United States gov
eminent has leased 3S1 acres of land
at Monmouth Park near Long Branch,
N. J., to be used as training camp for
the reserve battalions of the signal
corps. This land has been acquired
because of it's adaptability for signal
corps work, involving all kinds Of sig
mailing, telegraphy and maintenance Of
rapidly constructed lines of communi-
cation.
The uuartermaster's department will
build large cantOnment, consisting OF
temporary barracks, kitchen, store
houses, and everything necessary to
promote the efficient training of the
battalions, several of which have al
ready been organized.
The camp will be under the direct
supervision of Lieutenant Colonel
Hartmann, who will be assisted by 9TH
er officers Of the regular army. An in
tensive course of instruction will be
given to both the officers and men OF
the signal corps, preparing them for
service abroad in every phase of mill
tary life necessary to perform their in
teresting work on the battlefield and
to keep up the traditions of the signal
corps.
Experienced Men Needed.
Only men with education and ex-
perience along signal corps lines, aside
from the special lines mentioned, and
cooks, horseshoers, farriers and me-
chanics are sought for this branch of
service.
Lieutenant Colonel Hartmann has
been given one of the biggest tasks OF
the day In organizing this branch OF
the new national army. He needs some
5000 telegraphers-and he needs them
now. Telegraphers are scarce.
The unusual number Of men required
cannot be taken from the commercial
and railroad forces without jeOpardiz-
ing the prompt transmission of gov
eminent business.
Men and women who manipulated
the key in former years-and they are
legion-are being induced to return to
the wire and release ellgibles for serv-
ice in the signal corps.
Brig. Gen. George o. Squier, present
chief signal officer. U. s. A., is the man
on whose shoulders rests the big re-
sponsibility for keeping up to the mark
and, If possible, bit beyond-the
"eyes, ears and nerves" of the army
better known to the layman as the sig
nal corps.
The signal corps has recently adj
dressed letter to presidents Of col
leges and universities, asking their co
operation in a plan of instruction fol

piers. Six thousand young men are

NEW MONSTER U-BOATS
NOISELESS, SAYS SWISS

A Swiss newspaper corre-
spondent who recently visited
Kiel says the German subma-
rines Of the latest type are
cruisers of 1000 or more tons,
with a radius Of action of thou
sands Of miles. At least four
of these new U-cruisers have
already been built, and several
others will be completed this
, summer.
The submersible cruisers
have several batteries of six
inch guns and three torpedo
tubes. Their speed Is said to
be over 20 knots per hour on
. the surface and II knots sub
merged. Each one Of the YES
. sells has crew Of more than
100 men.
. An important feature Of the
!. new monster submarines is that
I they have noiseless motors. At

presence cannot be detected by
an enemy ship even with the
: finest instruments.
