Keokuk people who thought that

consulted the weather records in the

yesterday, August 4. 1918, that the
temperature reached the highest
mark 1t has attained in the history
of the Office, 1913 degrees. The only
other time that this bit Of torridness
has been reached was in 1901, when
on July 20, the mercury climbed 10

the rifle range and gas chambers

EUROPE AND WATER-DRINKING

Europeans as they become increasingly acquainted
with Americans are especially astonished at the amount
OF waerwe drink When ice is added to cool water their
astonishment verges stupefaction.
1t is true that Americans are water-drnkers; and
Americans take them masse are healthier than Euro
peans largely because they do drink more water.
The scant use of water in those foreign countries is
que manly to the fact that their water supplies are poor
and wells frequently infected with disease germs
Sanitation IS IN its infancy there as compared with
this country The European likes his light wine and beer

of course but he would be less devoted TO these if his
water was fit to drink
It is probable that advanced idea of sanitary
supply will be of the chief results of the long sav Of
our armies in Europe few years from now the source
oI will not be the amount of water we con-
sumo, but the fact that Europeans themselves ever
thought life possible with such slight and unsafe supplies
OF drinking water If this proves true it will be one of
the greatest gifts of America to the countries over the
sea. - --

GOVERNOR HARI REFUSES ID ASK
 TROOPS ID ACT

TACOMA, Dec. 26. - Governor Hart has refused the request of Wilkeson coal companies for troops to protect the non-union miners who have been employed by the compa- nies to take the places of their former employees who went out on strike and who were not permitted to return to their places.
 The governor explains that the county officers appear to have the situation well in hand and that the appearance of troops on the scene might have a tendency to aggravate conditions.
 The companies claim that their non-union employees are being beat en up at every opportunity by the union men, and they express the fear that serious trouble will result unless troops are sent to preserve order.
