One day last summer l was sitting
on the bench under the apple tree at
the bottom of the Golden Girls gar
den in her big back yard. No; you
don't know her; in fact, she doesn't
live in this town. She is, indeed, a
golden girl" She has a great mass
of shining deep-gold hair, that girl,
and eyes Of velVety brown shot thru
with gold in a mixture Of dusk and
sunlight. And she has heart OF
gold, too. The Soldier Boy said that,
and he called her his Golden Girl.
But to begin again, at the begin

CHECK-OFF FIRST ON
COAL MINERS DEMANDS
Shorter Day and Increase in
Pay Included.

! Wilkes-Barre, Pa, Aug. 2l.-Untted
Mine Workers Of America, when their
contract with the anthracite operators
expires next April, will have three
chief demands, according to William
Green, international secretary-treas-
11rer. who addressed - the delegates
from districts Nos. 1, z and 9 in their
tri-district convention.
The principal demands, as Green
outlined them, are:
First-The check-off.
Second-A shorter work day.
+! Third-A substantial increase in
wages. .....
There will be other demands, but,
while important, they will neverthe-
less be considered as minor.
Green declared that of the three de-
mands the check-off is the most i'm
Dortant, because if won it will mean
that every man employed in and about
the coal mines will be compelled to
belong to the union and will be forced
to pay his dues.
1--WE must have a closed shop" he
said. every man must stand up and
say to the operators that the United
Mine Workers of America have de-
cided to take a positive position in
the next meeting between operators
and miners, and that we will insist
upon the closed shop in the anthra-
cite field"

AMERICANS REPORT PROGRESS
A Brother of Villa is Said to Be Op-
Grating in the Same Regien--AIr'
u;ane in Battle With Outlaws.

Marta, Tex, Aug. 2l.-An airplane
brought this message from the Amer
lean troops in Mexico:
still following trail
Heavy winds and rain prevail In
the area covered by the pursuit OF the
| bandits who captured Lieutenants
! Peterson and Davis, and held them
for ransom.
The Mexican consul at Presidio,
Texas, reported that General Prune-
da. with a column of CarranZa caval-
rv had gone to Cuchillo Parade, forty
miles up the Conchos river from Ojin-
aga, in search for bandits in the OJin-
aga district, where the American
troops are operating.
Reports from the field in Mexico
told how the Americans spent the
night in the Mexican mountains. The
troopers slept in canyons on trails,
wherever they happened to be when
it grew TOO dark to continue their pur-
suit. SentrieS were stationed at en-
frances TO canyons, and at high points
OH the trails, to prevent an ambush
or surprise attack.
No fires were permitted, the men
eating a cold supper of field ratlons
Horses were picketed in hollow
SQUARES. and the men, rolled in blank
els, slept beside their mounts with
rifles and pistols at their sides. Pick
cts patroled the temporary camps.
Pack mules were unDurdened for
the night and the field wireless set
was rugged for making reports to
headonarters. Before dark airplanes
swooped low over the camps, dropping
orders. Officers were in conference
during the night, discussing orders
| and planning the days operations.
The troops resumed the pursuit OF
! the bandits before dawn in an effort
to pick up the trails lost in the storm
and darkness.
Hipoita Villa, brother of Francis
co villa, is believed to be in hiding
| in the mountains near where the
American columns are working. Hip
olito is said to have small body
guard and to be seriously i'll. Army
officers said it was possible American
troops might get in touch with these
| Villa bands while searching for the
bandits who held the American avl-
| ators. Many bandits in the Ojinaga
district are attached nOminally to VII
las command and also operate In the
country through which the American
| troops are passing.
| A report was received from Lieu
tenant Estill, pilot, and Lieutenant
Cooper, observer, dated Presidio,
Texas, giving details of firing on their
biplane by Mexican bandits. While
flying over a Mexican mountain trail,
the American aviators observed three
lMexicans, mounted, riding south. The
plane swept low to investigate. 8
The bandits opened fire with rifle,
bullets puncturing the wings of the
American machine. Observer Cooper
returned the fire and saw one horse
| and rider fall. A short time after
ward the horse was observed stand
ing without a rider. The third horse
man dismounted and, climbing up the
side of the mountain, disappeared.
Aeither aviator was hit.

U. S. Agents Seized 14,45o Pounds OF
Chickens and 81 Dressed Calves in
Philadelphia.
Washington, Aug. 21.-Proposed
amendments to the food control act,
which would authorize the president
to fix wholesale and retail prices OF
certain commodities, were strongly
opposed by Attorney General Palmer.
Appearing before the house agricul1
ture committee to urge speedy enact'
ment of additional laws to reduce the
cost of living. the attorney general
said such executive power would be
too drastic. It would provoke so much
debate in congress, he added, as to
delay passage of other amendments
suggested by the department OF just
ice.
The department has recommended
that provisions of the food control
act be made applicable to wearing ap'
parel, fuel and fertilizer, with heavy
penalties for profteering.
Armed with an anti-profteering law,
Mr.. Palmer told the committee the
department could obtain specific In
dictments on various cities, (which
would make unnecessary far-reach'
ing fight against high prices"
Mr.. Palmer contended the president
could not fix prices without the food
administration, reorganization OF
which would be too slow and expen'
sive. .,szss,l :
"An anti-profiteering law, imposing
fine of $4,000 and two years impris'
onment for violations is the best meth
cd of combating high living costs, "
he said.
Exemption from prosecution under
the food control act Of any retailer
was opposed by the attorney general
He also asserted that penalties should
be imposed for proflteering on pro-
ducers' organizations conducted for
profit. .-. b..
SIS it your desire to reach every
retailer directly" asked Representa-
tive Mclaughlin, Republican, Michi-
gan.
"Yes, SIR" answered Mr.. Palmer,
emphatically. while most retailers
are fair, there are black sheep among
them. If we exempt the merchant do
ing less than 100000 business a year
we fail to reach many gougers."
Attorney General Palmer has sub
mitted his estimates to congress. He
asks for $2,470,649.27, the bulk of
| which is to be used to make investi-
cations and proceed against violators
| of the food and antitrust acts. OF
this amount $1,000,000 is asked for
the prosecution of crimes. This
amount will be asked by special agents
in their investigation and subsequent
prosecutions against violators Of the
/ food control law.

ssrVations.
Washington, Aug. 21.-Four reser-
vatJOns on the league of nations cove
nant are embodied in a separate reso-
luton introduced III the senate by
Senator Pittman, Nevada, a Demo-
cratic member of the foreign relations
committee.
Senator Pittman said the resolution
was in line with the suggestion made
to the foreign relations committee by
President Wilson that If reservations
are to be made they should be embodi-
ed In a separate resolution and not in
the resolution of ratification, which
might make new negotiations neces-
Sary.
Senator pfttman said the reserva-
tions had not been submitted to the
president. They are similar to those
proposed by a group of seven Repub-
lican senators and deal with the right
Gf withdrawal from the league, article
len, domestic questions and the Mon
roe Doctrine.
Members of the McNary group of
Republicans, the sO-called mild reser-
Vationists, indicated they would not
accept any plan which fell short of
including the reservations in the rati-
ficatiOns itself.

DAYLIGHT REPEAL
NOW LAW over VETO
Senate Follows House in Re-
passing Bill >.

Washington, Aug. 21.-Repeal OF
the daylight saving act was accom-
pliShed.
The senate voted to sustain the
house in passing the repeal measure
over President Wilson's veto. The
vote was 81 to 10.
The house vote was 223 to 101. Vot-
ing to overrule the veto in the house
were 116 Republicans and 108 Demo
Gratis, and to sustain the president
"a Republicans, 48 Democrats and one
Independent.
The repeal of the law, which takes
place among the very few which have
been passed over a presidential veto,
become effective after the clocks are
turned back to normal in October.
The act will go down in legislative
history as one Of the few measures
which have been vetoed twice by j
president and have become law after
all by the vote Of more than two
thirds in both houses of congress.
Agitation for repeal of the daylight
saving law first came from farmers,
but was backed by labor unions,
clubs, rural school authorities and
many other interests.
Loss in time in farm labor was the
principal objection raised to the law.
Farmers said that with the clock ad-
vanced an hour, work could not begin
as early in the morning as under the
normal time schedule and must close
an hour earlier. This was because
the dew on the ground in the early
morning prevents farm labor.
Farm hands, it was contended,
would not work after six P. NJ, clock
time, or at most seven O'Clock.
Mothers objections to the daylight
law were based upon confusion of
conditions in the home and, funda-
mentally, loss of sleep by children.
Protests against the law from labor
unions and workingmen were based
upon the requirement for earlier ris-
ing. Wives of workingmen, it was
said, often were compelled to prepare
breakfast by artificial light.
