Citizens Have A Build
 ing Responsibility

Cooperation between Government and private agnecies in furnishing employment to returned soldiers Is declared to be essential by economists. They agree with the statement of Gov. Lister, of the State of Washington, who said:
 "AlI of the responsibility for furn- ishing employment should not be shov- ed over upon governmental agencies. It Is true that the Nation, State, coun- les, municipalities, and oher political subdivisions can assist greatly In han ding the problem. But it Is equally true that investors who had contem- plated the erection of business build ing. the individual who desired to erect new residence, the nanufac- turer who intended making improve meats in his factory, all of whose plans were delayed by war conditions, ought now quickly to arrange their af- fairs so that they may proceed and thus aid in providing employment for those who desire and need it."
 In conference with the Information and Education Service, United States Department of Labor, representatives of national organizations engaged in the building and construction indus try emphasized the fact that immediate building activities must depend to a great extent on the willingness of owners of private property to resume without delay work suspended or post poned during the war. The impera- tive demand that time should not be lost in providing employment for sol dters is urged, for although many Gov ernment projeets are under way. they may not be ready for active work In tiue- to prevent a growing number of unemployed men as the demohilzation os the Army proceeds.

Limitation of Armaments.


"The first of the four great steps TAX
en- by the league during the maintenance
of peace is the limitation of armament
provided for in the eighth article. The
council is to consider all world arma-
ments, and with the aid OF military
commission is to determine plan for q
general reduction Of ornaments and fix
the limit for each nation, member of the
league in that plan The plan is then
submitted to the several nations for dis
enssion and agreement. When the ma
tions have agreed to a plan, or to such
amendments of it as they require, they
covenant to keep within the limit fixed
and agreed upon for a period of ten
years unless the council increases the
limit in view of changed conditions.
"The Importance of this provision can.
not be oyerstated in securing peace The
chief factor in bringing the world into
this great war was the competitive race
of ornaments between the nations. After

formed by Bismarck on policy of blood

preparation for war, in strategic rail
ways, small arms ammunition and all
possible military equipment, was entered

similar course.
For national safety France and Rus

great plans of CONSUMPTION and military
preparation, to defend themselves
against the possible aggression of Ger

er on, there was similar race between
Germany and Great Britain in naval
matters Such enormous ornaments had
four evil results. One was the burden

The second was the removal from the

years, by conseription, all the young men

WENT BLIND IN ONE EYE

A peculiar thing happened to
Will Robertson one day last week.
He went to bed at night apparent
ly in as good health as he had
ever enjoyed in his life and woke
up the next morning totally blind
in one eye. No pain accompanied
the loss of sight and local physi-
clans were unable to solve the
mystery. Will took his wife and
baby daughter to Oklahoma City to
consult specialist, but the special
list was unable to account for the
blindness, never having had case
of a similar nature before. Will
was treated for few days while
Mrs. Robertson took in the State
Fair and visited at the home of
Mrs. D. P. Miller. Will could see
slightly out of the eye when he
left Sunday. He expects to return
to the specialist in the near future
unless his sight is fully restored
