WAR DEPARTMENT OFFICE
HALTS BUILDING CAMPAIGN
VIII Turn Energies to Placing Pro-
fessional and Technical Men In
Civilian Jobs.

THE War Department has today
decided to stop the campaign for pub
lie building throughout the United
States, 1t Is today announced by Col
onel Arthur Woods, Assistant to the
Secretary Of War.
This decision was taken because the
decrease of unemployment in many
localities has been so marked that
some difficulty is reported in obtain
ing soldier labor for the normal In
dustrial operations. 1t Is therefore
considered that the further stimula-
ton of public building at this time
would be inadvisable.
The energies devoted in the past
to the stimulation of public building
It was further decided, will now be
turned particularly into assisting pro-
fesslonal and technical men In finding
ioibs. The work of placing this class
of e-soldiers presents unusual difhcui'
tics because the demand for the high
grade of ability possessed by these
men is not at present in such grea
demand as ordinary labor. An active
campaign, however, is being conducted
to secure information from trade as
sociations, technical societies, profes
sional societies and large emplayer
with a view to finding all possible OPP
portunities for discharged army mel
who qualify in this way.

When Christ gave the this command
all the world was heather, except the
Jews. Through obedience to this COM
mand half the world today Is Chris

rope and America is the result of mis-
sionary effort. Every argument
against sending missionaries to heath

support of ministers Of the gospel in
Europe and America. The gospel has

those that are being written Of the

Pacific many fierce tribes have been
changed from wild avages to peaceful
happy citizens of we'll regulated gov
ernments. This mighty movement is
gathering strength at every step
Thousands of schools, and hospitals
and churches are being erected every
wear. in the very heart Of the heather
lands, and thousands of the best In
tellect and culture are recruiting the
mighty army of aggression that Is
conouering the world for Christ. The
Macedonian cry that comes from all
parts of the heather world Is pathetic,
and is arousing the church at home
from her long sleep of Indifference
II Christian missions have been
failure then Christian civilization Is
failure. and the world would be better
off to turn the shadow back on the
dial of the centuries two thousand
wears. It is time for men to stop their
opposition to foreign missions or to
prove that the preaching Of the gos-
| mel of Jesus Christ has made the
| world worse instead Of better. II the
gospel has been blessing to what are
now Christian lands 1t Will be the
same blessing to heather lands. God
is using the great war to open the
eyes and str the consciences OF the
Christian world to the duty and OPP
portunity of Christlon Missions. AS

United States have recently pledged
one hundred and sixty-fiee million
dollars (s165,OOO,OOO) for the enlarge

QUIT MEAT IF YOUR

Take Tcaspoonful of Salts If Back

We are a nation of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid. says
a well-known authority, who warns US
to be constantly on guard against kid
ney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork; they
get sluggish; the eliminative tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained In
the blood to poison the entire system.
When your Kidneys ache and fees
like Jumps of lead, and you have sting
ing pains in the back or the urine l.
cloudy, fun of sediment. or the blad-
der is irritable, obliging YOU to seek
relief during the night: when you have
severe headaches, nervous and dizzN
spells, sleeplessness. acid stomach or
rheumatism in bad weather. get from
your pharmacist about four ounces of
lad Salts: take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast each
morning and in few days your kid

no longer a source of irritation, thus
ending urinary and bladder disorders

It has been the fate of Eugene
| O'Brien, the Selznick star, who is al
| the Alta theatre today in his second
| Selznick Picture, Sealed Hearts" to
be cast for hero roles ever since he's
been in the movies. But O'Brien has
no use for the soft pedal hero stuff
in daily life. and here is his own en-
phatic assertion on the subject.
Just because an actor fits into the
hero parts of picture, and is sue
cessful in them.' says Eugene O'Brien
that is no reason for jumping to the
conclusion that he goes incoming thru
all his days. In reality, the two things
long for most in life are good flap
jacks and good friends
While some screen celebrities might
enjoy the sensation of being lionized,
this is decidedly not the case with
o'Brien. This Selznick star is and
wants to be known as a plain mortal
with his feet planted firmly on solid
ground.
Although he has been on the stage
since his graduation from the Uni
yersity of Colorado. his consistent sue
cess both behind the foot lights and
on the screen mas in no wise turned
his head. He is the same whole-soul-
ed, iii<eable chap with firm hand
clasp and a steady look in his eye.
Furthermore, he treats women In
