GOOD PRICE FOR CRADLE
The Family Relic Brings 500 for the
Red Cross Fund in
Kansas.

Cottonwood Falls, kant is not
every man who has the satisfaction of
seeing the ~old-fashioned cradle in
which he was lulled to sleep more than
forty years ago sell at an auction sale
for the Red Cross for 500 cash by
way of finishing up its days Of useful
ness.
This, however, was the experience
of =. G. and A. T. Croker of this
county. extensive cattle men and large
land owners, the latter state senator
Of this district.
At the public auction of A. T. Fent,
u hatfield farmer, the m%uch-used and
~old-fashioned cradle, which had done
service for the Croker brothers., was
offered for sale. 1t was bid in many
times and was finally sold and retained
by N. Gosler, cashier of the hatfield
Green State bank, after it had brought
in receipts totaling 500.

SMUGGLING BY AIR
Powerful AirpIanes Being Used on
Mexican Border.
Authorities Say That contraband
Traffic Is Carried Across
Rio Grande.

Laredo, Text is the firm convic-
ton of Mexican customs officials On
the lower Rio Grande border that
systematic smuggling by mean of
powerful airplanes is being conducted
between that country and the United
States. The American authorities on
this side of the international boun-
dairy are not yet convinced that O
traband goods are being carried in
this n from one country to the
other, although they freely admit that
it is possible if not very probable that
this is being done.
If evasion of the export and import
duties by this means is not already
being carried on it is only u question
of time when the airplane will be
brought into service for that purpose,
it is predicted by custom officials here
and at other places on the Mexican
border.
It is with considerable circumstan-
tial detail that the story is told of
the aerial traffic by professional
s%mugglers. Jose Longoria, a Mexican
1--WE Suitiu SliliOlleu al oil lkluClO,
about sixty miles below Laredo, made
a report to his superior officer about
three. weeks ago that while on duty
late at night he saw moving lights
pass high above him and heard the
whirr of a motor. The object was
headed north and came from some
point to the south in Mexico. Similar
reports were made by other Mexicans
who asserted that they saw the
strange aerial machine go back and
forward across the Rio Grande on sew
eral different nights. UP to thiS<time
no confederation of the stories told by
the MeXicans have come from Ameri-
can river guards.
1t is recommended by the custom
authorities of both Mexico and the
United States who are on duty along
the Rio Grande that airplane control
service be established on both sides
of the river at the earliest possible
time.

After all France is not such a dis

they raise here is umbrellas and if

1.-THE Difference"
No more ham and eggs and grape
fruit,
When the bugle sounds for chow.
No more apple pie and dumplings,
For we are in the army now.
They feed us beans for breakfast
And at noon we have them to,
But at night they fill our dummies"
With a good old army stew.
No more fizz or fur or high balls,
When you have an awful thirst,
If you're thinking of enlisting
Get use to water first.
No more shirts of silk and linen,
We all wear o. D. stuff,
No more night shirts or pagamas,
For Jul pants are good enough.
No more feather ticks and pillows,
And we are glad and thank the
Lord,
That we have u coats and blankets,
When we might have just a board.
But, by jinks, we'll lick the kaiser
When the coaches teach us how,
But hang him, he's the reason
That we are in the army now.

DOMESTIC SERVICE
COURSES PLANNED
Trained Home. Maker Is to Have
an Eight Hour Day and Stand
ard Minimum Wage.

Courses for training home assist
ants, who will go into the home by the
day, hour or week and work on a
schedule of hours and fixed wages,
have been inaugurated by the Young
Women's Christian Association as a
means for meeting the problem Of do
nestle service.
The object of this course, now being
tried out in New York City, is to place
domestic service IN the same dignifed
basis as clerical work, trained nursing
or other professions open to women.
The home assistant will work eight
hours a day for a salary of SIS a week.
She will not live in the home Of her
employer or take her meals there: She
will have an hour for luncheon, when
she can go to a restaurant or, eat a
lunch which she has brought with her
just as she would were she employed
in a factory. The employer will not
address the home worker by her first
name. She will be Miss Smith or Mrs.
Brown, as the case may be.
Applicants for the course are care.
fully selected, and registrants are ap-
pearing in large numbers. With the
same independence as to recreation
hours, places Of eating and living as
the factory girl, house-work has a
greater appeal, as being a less monoto-
nous and more interesting work to the
average woman.
The course is a thorough n in plain
cooking, waiting on table and door,
chamber work. plain sewing, care of
children, making Of menus and the
washing and ironing Of light things.
Heavy work is to be done by outside
workers. On graduation the student
receives a certificate which proves her
qualification as a dependable home
worker capable Of attending to all ordi-
nary duties in a home.
The Young Women's Christian Asso-
citation has been interested in the prob
lem of domestic service both from the
standpoint Of the employee and from
tina of the employer for some years.
The first commission on Household
Employment made it's report at the
NTH national convention Of the Young
Women's Christian Association held in
Los Angeles, Cal, in May, 1915.
The difficulties of attracting capable
women in this field of work were laid
to the long hours, lack Of independence
IN arranging recreation hours, lack of
opportunities for growth and progress
and lack Of social standing.
Girls have acquired a distaste for
the conditions which govern household
work since the freedom they have ex-
perlenced in working in munition fac
tories. BY standardizing domestic sery-
Ice 1t is believed by the Young Wo-
mems Christian Association that a
higher type Of worker may be at.
tracted to the necessary work in homes.

 After very few days spent with groups of foreigners studying Eng fish. we stop wondering whether or not the foreigner wants to learn the language. The terrible pity of it is that we do not always realize in time just how much he wants to learn.
 Many examples of this ambition are seen among the men Of this were up for naturalization papers, A case in point is that of a sturdy young sIovak who looked as it he would make an ideal American; but the rt.er hewilderment and ignorance which he displayed when asked about congress made the court very im- patient. ''Why haven't you ,studied?" the judge asked. "You have been up here once before and failed" Then some one spoke up: He's rattled, your Honor; he did better than that for me coming up on the train" Thereupon, the young Slav took up his own case and pronounced an in- dietment against the native born: No one help me. Everybody too busy, money. l get book: nobody me teach"
 America is facing a peculiar prob lem. The ideal of liberty for which America stands has appealed to all humanity, and men from alt parts Of the world have responded. 1t hap pens that English is the language of the country. yet there are millions making their homes here who cannot speak English, and other millions who can neither read nor write it. The inability on the part of any per. son to speak English is a hindrance no. only to himself, but also to the liberty of every Enslish-speakine person, because the larger liberty oi the individual is reached eniy through greater degree of community co operation.
