sation. II had to overcome the effect of .
two years war embargo on commercial tele-
phone construction, replace the reserves used
up during the.war and build to meet the great
est demand for new service in its history. And
II had to do these things while handling the
greatest volume of telephone traffic ever orig
mated in the city of New York.
New workers, new buildings, new switch
boards, new relays, new distributing boards.
new eOnduitS, new cables, new pole lines, new

these things were demanded by every other

Football, as it is played in Japan, is quite unlike the sport in America or England. The ball, some seven or eight Japanese inches in diameter is made of leather and blown up with air the, same. as in the. occident, but the eight players, dressed in white kimonos with hakama, or long, shirtiiSe troG- sers,' treat ie m quite another fashion. The color of llakama and the stockings vary, the color of the mans stockings denoting his rank as a player. All wear round toed shoes to facilitate kicking.
 As for the points in the game, the ball is put into play with the hand. dropped on the instep and then kicked vertically into the air with the toe. In this way it is kicked around the play CTS. in accordance with the rules.
 Football was played in Japan as early as thu year 794 of the present era. China played football long before Japan, so long ago that the football was stuffed with hair until the fifth century, when some ingenious Chinese thought of initiating it.

CONGRESS- CLASHES
 ON WAR ESTIMATES
SHARP CONFLICTS DEVELOP BE. TWEEN CONGRESS AND WAR
 DEPARTMENT.

Washington. Sharp conflicts be- ment over the amount of money to be appropriated for the military estab- lishment developed at the first meet ing of the House Finance Subcommit- tee to draft the 1922 army appropria- tion bill
 Representative Anthony of Kansas, chairman of the subcommittee, pre- dicted that the army appropriation for the coming fiscal year will be re- duced approximately to $30O 100000. He advocated restriction of the army to 175000 enlisted men, abandonment of half the army camps and immed- fate sale of the army's surplus sup plies.
 Secretary Baker and Major General March urged appropriation this year of approximately s700 900, GOO for army expenses. The War Department was allowed s392 900, 900 for the present year.
 Secretary Baker estimated that the War Department will incur a deficit of $60 GOO, 900 during the present year. Of this amount, he said, $3S,000, ,000 will be needed to pay enlisted men. Chairman Anthony, however, said members of the committee are con yineed the War Departments def ciency will total at least $l00 900 900.
 The secretary was asked to submit a report showing what camps are be- ing maintained and for what purpose they are being used.
 Tt has been shown 1t posts much more to maintain camps on the Mexi- can border than at centralized posts, said Mir. Anthon. 'The committee. for the sake of economy, intends to pro- vide withdrawal of many of the troops on the border"
 Another policy of the committee, he indicated, will be to provide for the full strength maintenance of only two divisions instead of nine, as the War Department favors. The remaining dt- visions would be maintained in skele L oniZed form and would be increased in full strength only in emergencies.
 Secretary Baker said the army now consists of approximately 2l6,000 en- listed men and 14,000 officers.

 Readers of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women have kidney or bladder trouble and never suspect 1t.
 Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease.
 If the kidneys are not in a healthy con dition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased.
 You may suffer pain in the back, head ache and loss of ambition.
 Poor health makes you nervous, irrita- ble and may be Respondent; it makes any one so.
 But hundreds of women claim that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring health to the kidneys, proved to be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions.
 Many send for sample bottle to see what Swamp-Root, the great kidney liver and bladder medicine, will do for them. By enclosing ten cents to Df Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N Y, you may receive sample size bottle by Parcel Post. You can purchase medium and large size bottles at all drug stores-Adv.

Washington. - Plans of the West ern Union Telegraph Company to out wit the State Department in connect ing with the British cable and the ef- forts of France to deprive the United States of any share in the former Ger man cables were revealed
 Newcomb H. Carlton, president of the Western Union, told the Senate Interstate Commerce Committee that the companys Barbadoes cable, which the government prevented being land ed at Miami, Fla, would be landed instead in Cuba and connected at Ha- yana with the Western Union cables running from Miami This will estab- fish connection between the United States and Baaadoes where the new cable is joined with the line of the British Western Company leading to Brazil and other South American poidnts.
 "The State Department can tear up the cables between Havana and Mia mi if it wants to-" said MT. Carlton. but we propose to go ahead and will be ready to send messages within d short time"
 He added that the three cables now being operated between Miami and Havana are the chief means of com munieation between the United States and Cuba and that the results would be serious if the State Department should tear up the lines. Two of these cables were landed under per mission granted by special act of Con- gress, so that the State Department ts only means of interrupting communi- cation would be the use of force, he said.
 Elihu Root Jr., attorney for All America Cables, Inc, which owns ca bles to the west coast of South Amer ica. charged that the landing of the Brazil Barbadoes-M Miami cable lis a step in plan to preserve for Great Britain a monopoly of cable communi- cation on the vast and wealthy east. ern coast of South America.'
