 Well, Fashion, you hold the tie in your left hand and your collar in the other.

Then drop beth hands, catch ing the left with the right and the other with the other. Reverse and, and pick up the loose ends with the nearest hand. Pull this end through stealing the right end with the other the loop with your unengaged hand, and squeeze.

QUITS COMMISSION.

Lit Q Rock, March 17.-There are only two members of the Arkansas tax commission. C. R. Cordell of Van Buren, who was appointed by Govern or Brough to fill a vacancy, turned over the keys to the office and his desk to the other members yesterday morning and departed for his home. The legislature did not confirm his appointment for the simple reason that it had not been reported for con firmation and according to the law, the office became vacant on the first Monday in February. It had been thought by some however that he would hold on until his successor might he appointed and qualified, but MT. Cordell evidently considered that he was automatically out of office and declined to hold further. He was chairman of the commission until February 1, since which time Mon roe Smith, whose term is the next tC expire, has been chairman.

III llfS 4>Cdi 14dot3 are volunteers serving with a high purpose, and they do not recognize hardship when they meet it.
 They have had their opportunity to withdraw with honor from the field of famine and desolation. They have re- fused to leave, because they know that their departure would mean death for tens of thousands of women and chill dren whom their efforts have kept alive and whom they are determined to save for a better future.
 A dozen cables are on my desk from various centers in Armenia, Anatolia, Cilicia and Syria pleading piteously for the lives of hundreds of thousands who are homeless: "Sixty-five thou sand refugees Constantinople alone j" Refugees 1ocking into Aleppo;" Twenty thousand refugees at Ismid j" "One hundred thousand people at Alexandropol will starve unless relief is provided ," Refugees arriving from Caucasus. escaping persecution. naked, destitutel Urgent need to save most of them from death;" "Two hundred tHouSauu SsHTNluR between harS ana Alexandropoll Severe winter adding to distress"
 Above all towers the mute appeal of the more than 100000 little children, orphaned, homeless, whom these Amer lean relief workers have saved and whom we here at home must sustain not only through the winter and spring, but through the summer and autumn as well. If we do not provide, they perish And with them dies the hope of a New Near East.
 The Easter season Is here-the sea son that commemorates the Great Sac rifice for mankind. America is known as Christian nation. She Is also the wealthiest nation that history has ever known.
 Can we really enjoy our wealth and claim the name of Christian If we turn a deaf ear to the appeal which General Leonard Wood in behalf of the Near East Relief, has sent forth broadcast for Lenten Sacrifice Offering to save these little children In Bible Lands7

tBy United Press)

Aurora, H., March 17.-If diversity of vocation and avocation, if excel lence in that which he has attempted, mean anything in this old world of smiles and tears, then Wilson G. Gros- hans, barber, checker champion, eugenics expert and master scientist, will be the next mayor of Aurora.
 Four aspire to the executice office the present mayor, Charles T. Town send, col. Charles Green, commanding officer of the 129th infantry, 33rd division, Fred B. Streeter and Gros- hans.
 Groshans hesitated to add politics to his long list of accomplishments, but upon the insistence of his friends he announced his candidacy and in a statement entitled "Who is this man Groshans and what has he ever done?" he tells why Aurora should name him mayor.
 Briefly he admits he is: One of the worlds foremost opponents of the brain game, checkers. Discoverer of eiiS NetuoS OI clIcI OI the scientific world in centuries of eff fort.

GERMANY PARTLY
 OPENED TO COTTON
lRY United Pressl

Washington, March 17.-Announce- ment of it's approval of an applica- tion of two American banking institu- tions for an advance to assist in fnan- cing the eXportation of about 15,000 bales of cotton to Germany and Czecho-Slovakia, was made today by the war finance corporation. The amount of the advance has not yet been determined.
 Approval of an application for financing exports to Germany is a complete reversal of the treasury's policy under former Secretary Hous- ton. MT. Houston took the position that while this country was technical ly at war with Germany the govern ment could not even indirectly assist the enemy with loans. No comment on this change of policy was made in the war finance corporations an- nouncement.
 Only small part of the cotton would go to Germany, Managing Di- rector Mclean explained, and the ad- vance could in no sense be regarded as loan to Germany.
 The advance is made, he said, to American bankers on absolutely ade- quate security to enable them to fi- nance the exports. The corporation, he added, considers all applications made to it but creates no precedent by it's action.
