PETITIONS PROTEST
 DISMISSAL OF SIX
 TEACHERS IF MESA

MESA, May S.-As a result of meeting of mothers Of pupils of the Mesa schools held Friday night, peti- lions were circulated generally among the citizens of the town yesterday, pro- testing the action Of the superintendent of schools and the high school board in their dismissal of the six of the teachers and urging that they be re- lnstated. The petitions were ad- dressed to the Mesa union high school board and will be officially presented 10 that body as soon as they are signed up.
 The mothers meeting, called at late hour Friday by interested parties. was attended by more than a hundred women of the town and keen interest was manifested over the situation. Two of the members Of the grammar school board were present ard during the discussion they were asked point blank why Miss Anne Merriam and Miss Elizabeth Parkinson, now teach ing in the grade schools. were not re- elected for the coming year. Reply was made that il was understood that the former had been offered a better posi- ton elsewhere and that 1t was not yet determined whether the new school building would be completed and whether Miss Parkinson would be of fered the principalship there. Both Miss Merriam and Miss Parkinson made application for schools here next year. and are the only ones who applied that have not been reelected so far.
 The situation at the high school, where six teachers were let out and keen protest to it made by the students a swhole, was considered at length tn the mothers meeting. While no vote was taken. it was indicated that a great majority of the mothers favored the reinstatement of the entire six. and the petitions were yesterday put into cir rulation urging the trustees to recon sider the matter.
 No action has been taken by the high school board so far. but it's chair man has said that Q meeting will be held with the citizens to discuss the matter if it is desired.

 Despite the fact the drive came in the midst of many local campaigns, the results attained by leaders and workers have been most gratifying Mir. Sexson said last night. This is true not only from the monetary view point but also because the response indicates the achievement of the greater aim of the interchurch world movement, the promotion of a lasting and ever increasing spirit of close CO., operation among the various Protest ant denominations.
 For the excellent showing in this state the largest share of the credit is given to the members and friends of the Protestant churches. Many who do not belong to any church were active in supporting this movement and are showing great interest in the broad program outlined by the inter church survey.

SAGE TEA DARKENS HAIR ID ANY SHADE Don't Stay Gray! Here's an Old-time Recipe That Anybody Can Ap- ply

The use of Sage and Sulphur for restoring faded, gray hair to it's nat ural color dates back to grand mothers time. She used it to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and attractive. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked ap- pearance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect.
 But brewing at home is mussy and out of date. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for a bottle of ..Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Com pound" you will get this famous old preparation, improved by the addi- ton of other ingredients, which can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair.
 A we'll known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply damp en a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this throug.. your hair, taking one strand at 2 time. By morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two it becomes beautifully dark and glossy.

demands for more wages, shorter hours and better conditions The British walters case is that the owners of the hotels and restaurants should pay them rather than the public.
 The walters earnings are made up mainly of tips. Why does he object? IL is popular belief in London, at any rate, that the waiter is one of the new rich. Wonderful stories have been told of his windfalls and his wealth. A really good man, it has been said, can be sure of earning about e10 ($50) a week and get his food for nothing.
 This is how this estimate is made. A waiter can serve 12 lunches and l2 din ners a day. His average tip should be a shilling. That makes 24 (about Sel a day or $52 for a seven-day week. Add to this his wages of, roughly, S.5o. and you get the 50. Isolated cases exist of super-waiters whose income is twice this amount.
 FThe fabulous sums walters are said to earn'-I am quoting the president of the union-"are a myth" It is admitted that in one or two rare cases big sums may be earned but the average is by no means high. On such question 1t IS not easy to arrive at the facts.
 A recent case throws some light on the mystery, A British waiter in a Chinese cafe in oxford street sued his Chinese emuloyer for G6 (about S3O) u lieu of notice This sum was said to be his average weekly takings in tips. His wages less board. he said were just over sl.
 This corresponds to some extent with the experience of the general secretary of the union, Mir. Cam, who has him. self been a waiter. He told me that tips vary with the position of the tables. A waiter with a good position might do yell but if he were serving tables in

Regulars Bag Most Prisoners

According to the Home Sector, the ex- soldiers magazine conducted by the for mer editorial council of the Stars and Stripes, the seven regular army divisions in France during the war captured 4l per cent of all German prisoners taken by the Americans. The seven divisions who had such high prisoner average consti- tuted less than % per cent of the whole combat force. The total of the divisional claims given below comes to considerably more prisoners than the American expedi- tionary forces turned back to Germany. Most of the difference can be accounted for by the fact that many of the prisoners taken by American troops filtered back into French cages in the confusion of battle. Hence they became devitalized
