Shortage Of Common and SKIN. Il
I'd Labor Exists.

The demand for labor, both skill
ed and unskilled, seems to be on
the increase. according to the week
ly report OF the Illinois free em-
ployment Office. The Office has 4
call for a large number Of skilled
workmen and the government pr0v-
ing grounds at Savanna is in need
of large number OF laborers for
general warehouse work.
1t is also noted the last few days
that calls for farm hands are nu-
merous. We have been able to
supply the latter. but there is y
shortage of labor for common work
and skilled shop work" said Su-
perintendent Rinck today.
There is a scarcity OF domestics
in the women's department. We
have a number of orders for do
mestics which we are unable TO
fill. There is still call for fac
tory workers and clerical workers.

Hand Grenade
Caused Most
War Wounds

WASHINGTON, Dec. s.-There
were &,249 deaths in action in the
U. S. army during the great war and
1881 died as the results of injuries
received in service. In all there were
224,O89 wounded in battle, exclusive
of Marines, in 1917 and 1918 accord
ing to'a report just issued by the war
department.
Putting the figures in another way,
the SurgeOnLGenera reports that of
the 2,039,929 men who arrived in
France, 100 out Of every 1000 were ad-
mitted to hospitals with wounds re-
ceived in battle. The infantry suffer-
ed the heaviest loss, with 215.66
wounded out of every 1000. The Sig
nal Corps was second with 1922.
At the close of the calendar year
1919, 576S military patients wounded
in Europe still remained in the army
hospitals in the United States.
Eleven soldiers lost both legs at
the thighs, one lost both legs at the
knee, nine both legs below the knee,
n both feet, and three one arm below
the elbow and n leg at the thigh.
In all, 4403 soldiers lost part of one
or more extremities.
Sixty-six men lost the sight of both
eyes, A lost partial sight of both eyes
and 644 lost the sight of one eye.
Partial or complete ankylosis of one
or more joints was suffered by 4790
soldiers.
Figures covering about $4,000 cases
of permanent disablement show that
the hand grenade was the most deadly
missile in the hands Of the enemy.
This weapon accounted for 24.20 cases
out of each 1000, shells caused 22.O4
injuries out of the same number, rifles
$3.50, shrapnel 1914, other gunshot
missile TAB.
Judged by the admissions to hos
plIaIS, the report says that the bay
onet and the saber were weapons of
Importance.
Gas proved to be a weapon Of great
potency in putting men out of action,
but was not nearly so fatal as gunshot
wounds.
The report shows that from the
138th (St, Louis) Infantry of the 35th
Division, 1928 men were admitted to
hospitals with battle wounds, and of
these n died. Admissions from the
Infantry, in which we're a large
