0 CAN'T ESCAPE.

THE small town resident who has
been the subject of some disturbing
gossip longs for the solitude Of tie
city and its lack of such verbal mud.
The resident of the apartment build
ing in some elestic metropolis aches
for a chance to live in the country
where there is plenty Of room and the
neighbors do not take an undue in
terest in the affairs Of the family

There is no satisfactory solitude.
Even if you establish a lonely resi-
dence on a forgotten island in the
South Seas you would be the prey Ct
your own thoughts.
You simply cannot escape. The best
plan is to live so you establish no
basis for gossip and when the tattling
takers start their tongues clacking

their own houses clean or attend to

THEY WERE UNSUNG
HEROINES OF WAR

WASHINGTON, Oct. I7.-That
army nurses who served overseas dug
ing the war shared the suffering, IS
shown in a final report by Miss julia
{. Stimson, who headed the nursing
service abroad. Between May s, 1917,
and May 81. 1919, 1925 nurses on: Of
1850 enlisted saw service overseas.
Three were wounded in action ard PCS
died on duty.
The first six detachmen:s Of nurses
sent 10 France replaced nurses in BIZ.
;sh hospitals.
The real work Of the American wo-
men began July IS, 1918. when the
final German attack was stemmed and
the Allied offensive started.
From July Il TO November II the
work was such that no praise would 5a
grea, enough" Miss Stinson says. "a:
was not uncommon FOR nurses to work
fourteen to eighteen hours a dag for
weeks"
One hospital had FIVE thousand pa

MINERS STRIKE WILL
CLOSE INDUSTRIES

"If thethreatened coal miners strike
goes into effect November l, you, l,
and everybody else will be out Of bus
mess in ten days" said E. P. Locke Of
the Mexico Power and Light Company
this morning.
There is practically no surplus Of
oi!uminous coal in Mexico and over
nine-tenths Of the Goa! consumed here
IS Of that type. The power plant viii
have enough on hand 70 last perhaps
ten days and if transportation were
not interrupted could probably keep up
light and water pressure longer than
mat. However, the heat would have
70 be shut off and there are strong
possibilities that the railroads woulI
De forced to stop running, as an enor-
10 quantity Of bitumiouus coal is
consumed by the various systems.
The A. P. Green brick plant could
run perhaps three weeks in case the
4tr!ke went into effect, according to a
statement made from the office today.
Considerable coal is On hand but when
that is used up there will be small
chance Of securing more,
The colleges, stove lining works,
shoe companies and in fact almost all
the industries Of Mexico, would in all
probability share the fate of those in a
larger cities and be forced to shut
down operations until a settlement Of
the strike could be reached.
A great deal of suffering would be
occasioned through the shutdown Of
the central heating plant, as many
householders and business concerns arc
u~nprepared to supply their own heat,
and the strike is scheduled to occur at
the beginning Of severe weather.
st. Louis and Kansas City are PROB
ably as well prepared as any points in
the country, having enough on hand
to last about thirty days.
Il is thought that q supply sufficient
for two or three weeks WI be enough,
as publ. sentiment will be 50 str>ay
against the strike that the miners Will
lie forced to return to work.
1t is said that miners are well paid
during the busy season and that the
dissatisfaction occurs during the sum-
mer when they are able to put in only
a few days a week. If the demands
Of the strikers should be granted it
would be necessary for the coal dealers
TO boost the price Of coal fully 70 per
cent.
