To do any kind of work, or to play for
that matter, is next to impossible if you
are suffering from some form of female
trouble. It may cause your back or your
legs to ache, it may make you nervous
and irritable. You may be able to keep
up and around, but you do not feel good.

PLENTY OF HARVEST COAL
State VIII Insure Adequate Supply for
All Needs.

There is plenty of coal for harvest
use, according to a statement today
by Governor Allen, who reiterated for
mer declarations that the state would
insure adequate fuel supplies for all
needs. A special survey of the fuel
situation as affecting the farmer ac-
tivities began today under direction OF
the governor. It will be made by P. F.
Weeks. secretary of the Kansas Farm
bureau.
The governor expressed optimism
today regarding conditions as reported
to him from the Pittsburg field. Ac-
cording to reports $50 addition men
went back TO their jobs Thursday.
Reports from the conference of
southwest operators did not seem to
disturb the governor. He stated that
the operators and Kansas state off
cials had perfected their program and
that operations in this state would be
conducted according to the agreement
made several days ago.
Governor Allen stated that some fif-
teen cars of coal were sent to Wich-
ita today for use by threshing crews.
He said that the available supply in
Crawford and Cherokee counties
would enable prompt handling of all
requests for fuel If there should be
a shortage, he asserted that the state
would then be ready to act.

Noah s Ark Was a Pyramid,
Not a Ship, Explorer Says
Moras of Early Egypt Were Far Superior Present DAY
Models, Egyptoogist Says-Believes Pharaohs Merely
Repaired Pyramids, Didn't Build Them.

Los Angeles, June 16-Noah's ark,
built to save human and animal life
times. is still extant for all to see.
900 years after its construction.
This is the belief of DIR. E. G. Getz-
niger, Psychologist. now visiting here.
His conclusion is based. he declares.
on recent discoveries following thirty
five years of research work. some of
the results of which he described in
an address before the Friday morning
club of Los Angeles.
Doctor Getzinger is convinced that
the Ark of Noah was not a ship, that
it was the great pyramid of Cheops in
Egypt. Recent discoveries prove that
the pyramids were under the sea for
thousands of years, Doctor Getzinger
said
Near the top of each at the same
level is a high water line where deeD
niche has been cut into the rock by
the lashing of a long forgotten surf
the flood which inundated the ancient
biblical world, he declared
Doctor Getzinger said research
showed the inner passages of the
pyramids to be thickly crusted with
salt which chemical analysis proved
was sea salt.
Doctor Getsinger is convinced the
pyramids were built thousands of
years before the reign of Pharaohs.
The latter merely repaired them, he
said.
He is also convinced that the pyra-
mids stand today living monument
to an old and noble philosophy, a civ
iliZation greater than any the human
race has since attained. Obviously
since modern science cannot account
for the means used to transport and
place the great stone slabs used in
the construction of the pyramids. that
ancient race must have possessed
knowledge and power lost to us of the
present day, Doctor Getzinger argued
His explanation of the feat per-
formed by those ancient engineers is

that they were of a race infinitely
more spiritual than modern man, that
their power lay in greater understand
ing of the universe and its laws.
For instance, Doctor Getzinger said
his researches indicate tnat those an
clients prior to $4,000 years ago had
no language-needed no language.
They had the gift of transference OF
thought. higher. finer comprehen-
sion of what we call telepathy, and
as language was born into the world
for the use Of human beings, this spir-
ituality was gradually lost to u.s."
I'm like manner" Doctor Getzinger
continued, they understood the pow
er of light to lessen the weight of
mass obJects-a fact which modern
experiments are even now making
evident"
Going further into detail about his
research work in the pyramids, the
Psychologist stated there were three
chambers within the great pyramids
which conform to Gods directions
to Noah for the building of the ark,
and these three chambers, named for
the three sons of Noah, Shem, Ham
and Japhet, represent three strata of
life and intelligence.
The chamber of Shern, the lowest
sis symbolic of animals who have no
souls. The second chamber. that of
Ham, symbolizes human beings with
souls, but of lesser intellectual and
spiritual attainments.
THE highest champer, that of
Japhet, symbolizes the inspired teach
ers, the spiritual intellectuals.
''It already is known" Doctor Get
Finger continued. that the flood of
Noah's time did not submerge the
whole OF the present world, but in
cluded only the ancient lost continent
of Atlantis and Egypt. Atlantis has
never reappeared,'' he said. but
Egypt, after 1900 years under the
sea, arose as a beacon light to man
kind"

intended as a sop for France. but the

were meant as a hint that Holland,

The Russians refused to say whether

MOTORIST MUMBLINGS

Why the delay on the Eighth ave-
nue. west boulevard?
The appraisers have not made their
report, it is understood, and there
seems to be no reason for the post
ponement.
Meanwhile the street is becoming
more impossible. The strip paving is
wearing out, the car track paving is
disgraceful and not day passes that
tires and springs of hundreds of mo-
tor cars are not damaged to the
amount of at least 500.
All of which brings to mind To-
the west. All streets are paved, of
course, but motor car owners have
learned that there are very few routes
to be taken unless they anticipate
sending their cars to the repair shops.
The worst feature of the southwest
Topeka thorofares is the use by truck
drivers. West Eighth and Huntoon
streets are jammed with trucks at
all hours of the day. The drivers ex-
hibit no sense of courtesy-they hug
the middle of the strip paving and
force motor cars to the sides or the
badly paved street car right Of way.
The city should either prohlpit the
truck drivers from one of these
streets or should widen and repair
the strip paving. There are "a mo-
tor cars to one truck-and the mo-
tor car owners pay the taxes.
Incidentally, speed up the paving
on West Eleventh and the boule-
varding of West Eighth!

President of X. s. A. C. VIII
Wait for State Funds.
Money for New DOrmitOry To
Go to Other Schools.
WILL BUILD AT FOUR SCHOOLS
Funds Go to K. T., EmpOria,
Pittsburg and Hays.
Governor Allen Praises Head of
the Manhattan College.

President W. NJ. Jardine of the
State Agricultural college today saved
the dormitory program for four big
state schools, altho by his action he
crificed-temporari at least-the
new dormitory for the farm college.
President Jardine today told Governor
Allen and members OF the state board
of administration that his school
would waive it's present claim to dor
nitory funds in order that there
might be enough money to complete
building at other schools.
Under appropriations available there
was an insufficient fund for adequate
buildings at Kansas university and the
state Agricultural college. In order
TO insure the K. L. building and new
dormitories at the Emporia, PittsburS
and Hays normals, President Jardine
waived his own schools immediate
right to a fund of SIP, 800. The
money will be reapporuoned and dor
Imtories at four of the state schools
will be completed this year.
Funds TO Five Schools.
After a hard fight the 1921 legisla-
ture finally appropriated $500, 600 for
dormitory projects at state schools.
The board of administration decided
u give portions of the fund to each
of the five big state schools.
Investi cations showed it would not
he advisable to build dormitories
which would care for fewer than 100
girls. Such structures would cost
$165,O to S170,000. The agricul-
tural college was allotted $112, 500 and
the state university $15O,0O0. The re-
ma,nder was distributed among the
.hree state normal schools. Action by
President Jardine today made possible
completion of the four buildings, altho
x. S A. C.. must wait.
Governor Allen was enthusiastic to-
day in his praise of the spirit of Pres
ident Jardine and the state farmer
school in waving for the present its
claim to a new structure. There is
the school made today will be COM
pensated by the next legislature. Wo-
mems organizations are strongly be-
hind the dormitory movement and
with completion of buildings at four
state schools. there seems little doubt
that the Agricultural college will re-
ceive an adequate appropriation by
the 1928 legislature
Spirit of Cooperation.
"The action of President Jardine.
which meets with the approval of the
dean of women of the Agricultural
college, is a fine example of the spirit
of cooperation in the schools" said
Governor Allen today. while it de-
lays for a year the needed dormitory
at the Agricultural college, It insures
both to the Agricultural college in The
future and to the other institutions at
once suitable buildings of such size as
can be economically administered"
The dormitory fund is in a blanket
which was distributed
by the board of administration. Had
President Jardine not waived claim
for his school, tho, the building
project for all institutions might have
been held up or at least impaired.

Constantinople, June 16.-Further
tales of the persecution of American
relief workers in Asia minor by the
Turks are told by J. Herbert Knapp
and Bessy Bannerman Murdoch who
have arrived here from Arabakir.
Mr.. Knapp, director of the Arabalzir
unit of the American committee for
relief in the near east reported to the
American authorities that for eigh-
teen months he and Miss Murdock
virtually were prisoners in an Ameri-
can Orphange near Egin and were not
allowed to visit the village or to re-
ceive American visitors. He cited
further instances of the deportation
of Armenians and said the roads over
which they travelled are strewn with
bodies.
