Soldiers Willing
 To Risk Lives For
 Small Amounts Now

London, Nov. 3.-(By the Asso- ciated Press. )-Some of the soldiers who served in the great war are find ing the humdrum life of the civilian too monotonous to endure and offer ing to risk their lives in campaigns anywhere or in any adventure to es, cape the tedium of office or shop life. An example is shown in the following advertisement which ap- peared in the London paper the oth- CT day:
 Young ex-soldier, three times wounded, will risk life for 200, tired of life and all alone, write"-etc.
 Inquiry disclosed that the adver- tiser was formerly a stretcher bear CT in the royal army medical corps, who won the military medal at Mart inpich and later at Ypres won bar to the medal. After his discharge he obtained employment as civilian clerk in the royal air force.
 "I am paid lbs week." he told an interviewer, "but I am ashamed to take it. For weeks have not done a stroke of work. Doing nothing all day is getting on my nerves. l cannot stand it. l want action. Per haps some cinema fir might want somebody for particularly risky job."
 Recently four officers advertised themselves as ready to enlist in any capacity in any campaign for any country, provided there was "some fighting to be done."

 Manifest willingness to obey the law and the honesty of the average American are portrayed in most of the letters, but in none better than the one replying to formal inquiry whether the mother of certain sol dier who asked a government allow ance for her, had any support. She conscientiously replied:

Washington, Nov. 3.-Much of the humor and some of the tragedy of the war are poured daily into the bureau of war risk insurance, which has the enormous task of administer ing the insurance and allotments ac- counts of all men in the military ser vice.
 At the first of each month the let ters arrive at the rate of 10000 l day, later falling to 10000, or 50,- GOO. Between 75,000 and 100000 pieces of mail are sent our daily. Remittances for insurance premiums numbered 1,203,792 between July II and October 7, having value of $9,- 784,186.
 Handling such a tremendous quau- tity of mail, dealing with men whose names in scores of instances are iden- tical, necessitates the most punctil- ious accuracy, to assure that the proper account is credited One mother who wrote to ask about an allotment made by her son Jim was asked to be more specific in identi- flying the soldier. She wrote back, somewhat indignant in her mothefly pride:
 You must have noticed Jim, be- cause he's six feet tall"

WOMEN OF ARMENIA
 APPEAL TO AMERICAN
 SISTERS FOR SUPPORT
Protection from Turk Is Plea Sent Back by Young
 Girl.

Geneva, Switzerland, Nov. 3.-An appeal of the women of Armenia to the women of America to help them and protect them from the Turks has been forwarded from this city by an Armenian girl, Nelly de Warhram- off, for distribution in the United States. In note accompanying It, the girl says that her appeal has the approval of Antony Kraft Bonnard of Geneva, secretary general of the federation of Swiss committees of friends of Armenians. The plea reads:
 ITO you, our sisters, women of the United States, we cry out Tn our an- guish.
 From our mountains, our plains, from the desert, as well as from your own hospitable country, we, women from Armenia, we all raise our voic- es. Listen to our appeal. Who bet ter than we could speak? Our men are dead. Yours also have fallen, but as soldiers on the field of honor. Ours have been cowardly pursued and murdered. The children that we pressed on our breasts have peen torn away rom us Dy tHouSdHuS, our young girls are lamenting in harems.
 Have pity on us. Who else could protect us? Shall we be left in our despair? No, that is not pos sible. If our hearts are bleeding, yours will blend over. our wounds.
 Hold out your hands to us. We only ask for the right to live and to love; but to obtain that, Turkish do- imitation must be done away with. Tell to your government so. We must obtain complete and final re- lease.
 Beware of Turkish intrigues.
 ''Do not believe those who islander us!
 Our peoples only crime is to be Armenians, that is: Christians.
 "Our wish is to rebuild our coun- try and our homes filth the survivors who have been spared us.
 Do help Us, women of the United States!
 Help us, we women of Armenia, who are weeping but still hoping, for we trust in Gods love-"

LOndOn's Patrons of Theatres Have
 Row With Actors

London, Oct 30 Correspondence of the Associated Press. )-Theatre goers in London are demanding that the war restrictions prohibiting the sale of candy after o'clock in the evening be withdrawn and have in volved themselves i'll a controversy with some of the actors. The actors do not want candy sold in the thea tres and they wish the serving of tea and coffee could be eliminated during the performance.
 After the first act of matinee nearly everyone who does not go to the bar, has tea. By the end of the second act the bar is closed by war restriction and nearly everyone who did not have the tea after the first act has it then. The same situation obtains at the evening performance except that the excuse for numerous maids edging their way between rows of spectators with trays, is coffee not tea.
 Actors aver that many quiet sit uation is ruined by someone drop ping a spoon into tea-cup or drop ping the cup itself. Before the can- dy restrictions went into effect the actors were further irritated by the noise caused by crumpling of paper in which the candy is wrapped. They say they could not hope to destroy the aged tea and coffee habit but hope their protests against Iaandy may result in it's total banishment.
 But the crumpling of little bits of paper doesn't really hurt a show, does it?" an actor was acked.
 Some night during quiet situa- tion just take your mind off the piece for a moment and listen to the confusion caused by candy one way or another he said, adding that's my answer.'
