Sport In Haiti.

2 Boosters that crow night and day
and have no SENSE of proportion at ALL"
Is the way William Almon Wolff de-
scribes Haitl's only fowl of any i'm
portance, in an article in Golfers. In
addition he accuses them of not being
educated, like the mass of the popu.
lation," and of being ignorant of the
fact that cocks business is to let
an unobservant world which wouldn't
notice the phenomenon itself, know
that the sun has rlsen." "When II
comes to cock fighting in Haiti" Mr.
Wolff writes, "the rooster plays n very
Important role. Sunday afternoon is
the great time for that" he says, "and
all day Sunday you may see sporting
Haitians going about with a gamecock
or two under their arms. There are
two rings in Port au Prince; thousands
of men gather there every Sunday af-
ternoon and bet on their favorites.
Haitian cock6ghting is not very bru-(
tai affair; the birds aren't spurred. 1t
is the custom for the owner of the los
Ing rooster to cry quits before much
damage Is done"

order to allow men insured under
the act to elect whether their in
surance upon maturity will be paid
in installments or in one lump pay
ment.
The present form of War Risk in
surance is known as term insurance
and Is payable in monthly INSTALL
ments for a period Of 240 months.
This may be converted into ordinary
forms of insurance such as straight
life insurance, twenty or thirty year
paid-up life insurance and endow-
ment insurance. Except in the case
of matured endowment, these
forms Of insurance, under the pres
ent act, are payable only in Install
ments, extending over a twenty year
period, the amount of installments
depending upon the amount of in
surance.
Service men say that their bene-
ficiarles in many cases are too old
ever to realize any usefulness from
the Insurance If paid only in month
ly installments.

WHY SOCKS HAVE CLOCKS
They Were Originally Made, II 10 As
serted, to Hold the Seams
In Hosiery.

II Is surprising how much Of the past
still remains, more especially in regard
to the clothes we wear.
On the backs of most gloves will be
found three thin strips. These marks
correspond to the fourchette pieces
between the fingers. In earlier times
gloves were not made so neatly as
they are today, and the stitching of
the fingers was carried down part of
the way on to the back Of the glove,
braid being used to conceal the seams.
To a practically similar reason does
the clock on sock owe its origin, SAYS
London Answers. In the days when
stockings were made OF cloth the
seams occurred where the clocks are
now displayed, the decoration being
utilized to hide the seams.
The little bow which win invariably
be found in the leather band inside
mans hat is a survival OF the time
when hat was made by taking a
piece of leather boring two holes
through II and drawing 1t together with
piece of string.
Handkerchlefs were not always
square. At one time they were shaped
TO the users fancy. 1t Glanced that
this irregularlty displeased Queen Ma
rie Antoinette, who suggested one win
yer evening at Versailles that u uni
form shape would be an Indication of
good taste. The result was decree
by Louis XVI, issued in the early days
OF 1873, enacting that all pocket hand
kerchiefs should have rlght-angled
edges henceforward.

MOST GRADE ACCIDENTS
DUE TO AUTO DRIVERS

When running at maximum per-

track" said r. ]. Clancy. Assistant
to General Manager of Southern Pa
cicfic. Western Pacific, and Tidewat-
or Southern. "the average passenger
train obstructs a crossing less than
seven seconds, yet, Judging from
crossing accidents, there are many
drivers OF automobiles who misjudge
the speed of passenger trains or are
too impatient to wait that long and
as consequence run into or are
struck by trains, resulting in seri-
Gus injury or death.
During the first six months OF
1913, is people were killed, 81 In

In connection with the submission
of applicants and the approval there
of by the executive heads Of the re-
spectiye educational institutions OF
the state with which applications
may be filed, attention is invited
to the fact that the attorney-gen-
eral has construed the provisions OF

during the recent war with as in
cludipg only those who were actual

porarily residing and were sent
therefrom to mobilization camps by
the nearest local board.
Oregon Residence Required
The phrase, Those enlisted and
inducted men whose residence at the
time OF enlistment or registration

FOOD HOARDING IN STATE
TO BE INVESTIGATED

Food boarding In Oregon will be
Investigated by the department OF
justice agents, under direction of B.
F. Haney, United States attorney, in
the nationwide campaign to reduce
the high cost of living, says the Ore
gonian. The machinery was put in
motion yesterday by Mr.. Haney, on
instructions from the United States
attorney-general. Prosecutions, il
amy are brought, will come under
the Sherman antitrust act and the
food control act
While the food administration has
passed out of existence, the law
which the administration enforced
has not been repealed and boarding
is as great an offense now as 1t was
during the war.
"The excessive cost of living, in
connection with the approach OF
winter, makes 1t imperative that
nothing be overlooked in an attempt
to reduce the cost of foodstuffs," an
nounced Mr.. Haney It is the inten-
tlon Of the department of justice to
prosecute any individual, firm or
corporation deemed to be guilty OF
violation Of the Sherman act or the
food control act.

The Director of Air Service is ar
ranging a plan to provide an oppor-

Air Service to keep up flying prac-
tice so that they will be of value to
the government should an emer-
gency arise. Otherwise the country
will lose the experience these await
,rs have obtained and thus the mon
ey spent on their training would be
wasted
Many reserve officers have made
Known their desire to obtain flying
practice and the government is in
possession of quantities of flying
,quipment, planes Of all types, hang
RS. repair outfits, etc., which will
Inevitably be scrapped unless some
means is provided for their use by

he reserve.
1t is contemplated to organize re-
erve units within the different To-
alities. Reserve flying officers re-

Where the enlistment of the appl-

vice was in another state and the
applicant at the time of such enlist
ment or induction into the service

an affidavit setting forth fully and
completely the reasons for absence

such absence was not with the in
tention of taking up his residence in
