of setting up a machine to examine
the applicants credentials. 1t also
weeds out those who pose as ex-sol-

need the stake.
When the letter is presented al
the Stake Bureau the bearer is given

all prospective employers. Below the

per cent refused to sign the paper
at first, but when they were ac
quainted with the pupose by the
Chicago newspapers, they gladly put
their names on the dotted line.
When the applicant returns to th'
bureau at night he is supposed tc
have each line filled with a name. In
few instances there have been EN-
PITY lines, but in the main they have
ben filled. Not all of the former

PETRIFIED MAN AT CARNIVAL
is AN EDUCATIONAL EXHIBIT

The petrified man on exhibit as
one of the attractions at the carni-

hibit in every sense of the word and
is worth seeing by every man, woman
and child. This fossil form is that of
a man of average size, being feet,
10 inches in height, but the stone
formation makes him weigh 365ibs.
He was found in the sands of the
Missouri river in Montana by Thorn
as Dunbar, trapper. His hair, fin
ger nails and teeth are perfect and
plain, and wound is in his head and
his hands strapped together across
his breast, evidently maving been tor
tured and killed by Indians.

The Salvation Army has no great
war chest with which to pay the

The war money was all spent lone

some money, and more will be found
some where for the Stake Bureau.
