Forty-fve per cent OF the men who
saw service in Europe are now ask
ing Government assistance is finding
work, according to canvass OF 5000
cards just received from overseas by
the United. States Employment Serv-
ice. This is 10 per cent higher than
the percentage among the silver

Ample provision has been made by
{ the Department of Labor in framing
its bin asking Congress to make per-
msnent the Employment Service for

ment needs of the soldiers before
they leave France. This information
is now sent back to their homes. so
that a job may be waiting for them

HEIGHT co. MUTUAL BENEFIT
ASSOCIATION GIVES DANCE

The annual Easter dance OF the
Hecht Company Mutual Benefit AS
sociation was held last night in the
Arcade ball room. Harold H. Levi,
general manager Of the company. was
among the several hundred who at
tended.
The evidences OF good fellowship
and cordiality which abounded gave
splendid vindication to the co-opera-
tive spirit which is dominating and
drawing into closer bonds of friend
ship the members OF the Mutual Ben
eft Association.
Music was furnished by KaminskTs
jazz orchestra. The reception COM
mittee was composed OF c. L. NARROW,
chairman; Milton Kaufman, S. 3. Love
less, Miss Mollie Johnson, and Mrs.
May McLearen. The committee on ar

man, chairman; G. M. Fix, c. p. Derby,
J. H. Davenport. Albert Spittel. Mrs.
L. Willamette, and Miss ]. r. Howe.

Refuse Bail to ShIfhett.

Attempts t ohave Herman Shiffet,
Morris young companion. charged
with aiding him to escape after the
killing OF the magistrate, released on
bail have failed.
Because OF the nature OF the case
and the fact that Morris. the princi-
pal in the tragedy. is still at liberty,
Judge John W. Fishburne has de-
clined to release the youth.
Shinlett will be placed on trial on
May 6. He will face two indictments.
One charges that he fired at and
sought to kill John Henry Morris, a
witness in the case against Edgar
Morris. The other charges him as an
accessory in the killing Of Magistrate
sullivan, and with aiding Norris to
escape.
Friends OF Edgar Morris today
held that he would not stay by and
see his companion suffer. Should the
court fear trouble on the day of the
trial, il is probable that the troops
from Charlottesville will again be
sent here.

Colt Race Followers
Begin To Take Stock
OF The Youngsters

New York, Dec. 27.-Uader the
rules of racing all of the foals Of 1917
will be three years old on January 1.
With the beginning of the new year,
every follower Of colt racing will be-
gin to take stock Of the youngsters.
Each will select the one which on
public form appears to have the best
chance of winning the big futurities,
that will he raced for in 1920.
While it is reasonable to expect
that the winners win come from
the group which was seen in front in
the two year old evints in 1919. they
have not always proved the leaders
as was shown byMolly knight this
year, Mary Putney in 1915, and The
Harvester in 1908. The returns for
the past few seasons, however. have
been on the side of those which were
raced freely in their two year old
form. The best evidence of this is
the careers of Periscope, Brusiloff.
Nella Dillon, The Real Lady, Miss
Bertha Dillon, Harvest Gale, Volga
and her brother Peter Volo.
At present. it looks as If the 1920
futurities would be another session of
Peter the Great against the world.
In the three year old division, the
Laurel Hall premier will have Day
star, Natalie the Great. The Great
Miss Morris, Evening Gale and Klio,
while of his sons. Peter Volo will be
represented by Voltage and Sunflash,
Azoff by the fleet filly Sister Azof,
Gar Peter by the Michigan stake
winner Alta Coast. and Peter Mozart
by Lady Mozart that won at Read.

Hockey Teams Are
Given Hard Training

Seattle. WASH, Dec. 27.-Hockey
clubs of Seattle. Vancouver and Vic
toria. the three cities of the Pacific
Coast Hockey association. have had
hard training for the 1919-20 season
which opens late this month. *
Seattle's team, the Metropolitans,
which won the championship last
season. will skate onto the ice this
year with almost the same lineup as
son, will be missing. Wilson has
signed with Toronto's club of the Ma
tional Hockey league. Bobby Rowe
will continue to act as captain. Frank
Foyston, Harry Holmes, ''Muzz''
Murray and the other Seattle men
are all on deck.
Cyclone Taylor, the bald headed
veteran of several Vancouver teams,
will again lead the Millionaires, as
the club from the British Columbia
capital is called. Taylor is consid-
cred one of the fastest men on west
ern ice. With the addition of several
new players signed by Vancouver, the
Millionaires promise to put up a very
strong fight for the pennant this year.
! One strong addition is DR.. Gordon
! Roberts, who has deserted his profess
sion for the ice. Gordon played sew
cral years ago in the eastern league
and was considered it's best goal get
| ter. Will Adams and Jack Adams,
two other new Vancouver men, are
/ expected to add strength.
The third team. Victoria, will not
show many changes. Eddie Oatman,
captain. will continue to lead the ag-
gregation. Moose Johnson will
again be the Victoria rover and prom
ises to bring the fans to their feet
again and again, as in the past, by his
dashing drives down the ice. Victoria
will be strong on defense.
