BIDS FOR W. VA. TOWN.

So far three bids have been submit
ted for the purchase of Nitro, w. Va.
a city built during the war and in
tended as a smokeless powder manu-
featuring plant The highest bid was
$5,S0O,OOO from New York con-
Germ. 1t is estimated that the con-
structive work in the town cost
around $7O,OOO,O0O. The property
includes huge power plant, various
other Industrial units erected to pre-
pare the ingredients necessary in pow
der making and the civic community
in which about 10000 people live.
Experts who have gone over the prop
erty declare that the plants may read
lily be converted into establishments
for chemical manufacture or cotton
and wood pulp paper making. The
bids were sent TO Washington for
consideration but were turned down.

RADICALISM IN CHURCHES.

The churches are having their trou-
bles now in meeting the issues which
are agitating the people. Some of
them of late have developed a tenden-
cy to pander to the radical and So
cialistic elements, while others are
showing their conservatism by taking
firm stand against these elements.
A considerable realignment is taking
place in the religious field, just as in
the political field. Quite a number
of ministers and members are leaving
certain churches and identifying
themselves with others which more
nearly fulfill their aspirations. This
is agreedto be a critical time for the
churches; some will emerge much
stronger than before the war while
others are making errors which will
prove very costly 10 them.

Americans, both at the bar and the
sums from their privileges.
Very few Americans attempt to
smuggle "a bottle" back with them,
for they realize that the American
customs guards are always on the
lookout and search all persons who
cross from the Mexican to the Amer
lean side of the Rio Grande-except
those who smuggle themselves across
the river by swimming or in skiff
under cover of darkness. An Ameri-
can official said Mexican officials
have been caught in the act of aiding
Mexican smugglers in their work
along the Rio Grande.

IN QUEST OF FLU GERM.

Washington. Oct. 2O-7-In order that
there may not be recurrence of such
another influenza epidemic as caused
$50, 900 deaths in the United States
last year. Senator France. of Mary
land, chairman of the Senate Com
mittee on Public Health and National
Quarantine, has reported a joint res
olution providing for thorough in
vestigation of this and allied diseases.
Hence one milalion dollars is to be
made available for research work on
the part of all universities and col
leges of medicine and otherwise in
order that the dread germ which
caused all the trouble may be found.
In addition all of the agencies of the
Public Health Service and the medical
departments of the army and navy
are giving their assistance in the
quest. II is felt by the Republican
leaders of the Senate that If the pana-
cea for tuberculosis be found, that
for the flu may be also.

Contrasting this attitude with that
of many careless parents. the Public
Health Service gives the following
reasons why Baby's birth should be
registered.
!. To establish identity.
3. To prove nationality.
3. To prove legitimacy.
4. To show when the child has a

5. To show when the child has the

8. To establish the right to vote.
g. To qualify to hold title to, and
