and officers in the army. The
clergy are aroused at the fact
that army ckaplains do not have
the same opportunity for advance

In the Medical, Dental and Vete-
rinarian Corps.
The clergy are protesting strongly
Z against the number of army posts,
some of which have more than
1000 men, that are without the
services of a chaplain. Other large
posts, with 1000 or 5000 men,
have only one chaplain. They
are especially indignant that three
OF the five general hospitals are
without chaplains and two others
nave only one, while each should
have two chaplains.
Churches Back Bill.
Various communions have sent
representatives to the joint hear
ing today by subcommittee of
the Senate and the House. The
bill was introduced at the re-
quest of the General Committee
on Army and Navy Chaplains. 1t
has the support of practically all
Protestant bodies, Roman Catholics
and Jews. Bishop Charles H.
Brent, chief chaplain of the A.
p. F. in France, will represent
not only the Episcopalians,- but
also the churches in general.
DIR. Charles S.. mcfarland, gen.
eral secretary of the Federal Coun-
Gil of Churches, and a chaplain
with the rank of major in the
Officers Reserve Corps, in ex-
planning, the bill today said:
The churches are not asking
much for. the chaplains. They
simply request that all discrim-
nations against chaplains he re-
moved and that there be an ade-
Quate chaplain ministry FOR enlisted
men and officers of the army.
Posts Without ChapIains.
Eat present there are 25 large
posts with garrisons ranging from
100 to 1924 men that are without
chaplains. Some of these posts,
like the Aberdeen Proving Grounds,
Md, are 35 miles from the nearest
town. Three are on. the water. In
addition to this, 100 army posts like
Camp Meade, Md; Fort Riley, Kan;
the Preside of San Francisco, Calf,
have only one chaplain when they
sshould have two or three each
These posts, which shoVld have q
minimum of 80 chaplains, have
only %.
Eat each of the five general hos
pitfalls there should be two chaplains
--one Roman Catholic, and ona
Protestant. At present there are
only two chaplains for all the five
hospitals. In the Army and Navy
General Hospital, Beaumont General
Hospital, and the Letterman Gell
eral Hospital, at all of which men
are i'll, some dying, there are nc
chaplains."

The following statement is issued
by Collector of Internal Revenue of

tor of the estate. The executor or
administrator who makes n return
for a decedent is entitled to claim
for him his full personal exemption,
according to his status as a single or

TON DISTRICT

A recent issue of The Saratoga
Sun carried the following interest
ing article regarding the prospects
for the early construction of the
Saratoga Irrigation Project:
Mayor NJ. b. McKillip this week
received word from Chas. b. Duffy,
representative of the Healy-Vree-
land Company of Kansas City, to
the effect that a contract has been
ned for the purchase OF the bonds
of the irrigation district which that
company plans to form in connection
with the building of the East Side
project, near Saratoga, and is taken
to mean that the Company will now
be able to go ahead with active pc
parations for building the project.
Rumors about town to the effect
that excavation work will be In prog
ress during the month of March are
probably without foundation, but
this development indicates that n
of the most difficult of the prelim-
mary steps is now an accomplished
fact and the company will now go
ahead with its plans under the Carey
Act requirements.
The Hunt Engineering Company
of Kansas City represents the bond
purchasers, and the delays of the
past several months have been prin-
cipally due TO the time required by
that organization in making a tho
rough investigation of the project
lands and the scheme in general.

time ago and went over the project

port of this examiner was a very

TRIP REVEALS
GOLD AND FUR

While science toys with the rs di-
nosaur eggs brought back from the
interior of Mongolia by the Third
Asiatic Expedition, and wonders
about their relationship to the din
osaur skeletons now and then un-
earthed in America, industrial lead
ers are giving deep and serious
thought to the commercial phase of
the expeditions many remarkable
discoveries.
Numerous important mineral de-
posts were found, according to Roy
Chapman Andrews leader of the ex-
petition. and it is only a matter of
time until modern transportation
makes it accessible. The plains are
also inhabited by millions of fur
bearing animals, and fur traders are
already hot on the trail followed by
the Andrews party in its search for
fossils.
Mr.. Andrews demonstrated that it
was not necessary to rely on the
plodding camel in order to penetrate
the rich interior. His three Dodge
Brothers motor cars did what the
fur traders and others interested in
tn commercial development of Mon
golia had considered impossible. The
fur traders promptly bought up his
three cars. proved to their satisfac-
ton that it was in the car to do 1t
and not just luck-and are now
operating fleets of the same sturdy
American car in pursuit of the for
tunes that roam aimlessly IN the
plains. Trips hat formerly required
months are 10Y made in days. There
are no roads, but that seems to
make little difference when one Is
using n Dodge Brothers car.
Thus the fur trade already has
been given a definite impetus by the
Andrews expeditions revelations.
Information regarding the geologi-
cal discoveries. such as mineral de-
posits. was turned over to the Mon
golian government How soon ac-
tive development of these
will begin, depends largely on the
condition of state affairs and the in
terest of outside capital.
The Importance with which the
results of the expedition are view
ed by the press is reflected in the
countless editorials which followed
the travellers return. Typical of
the comments is the following, from
the Dallas Journal:
How many of us grubby folk
know that dinosaurs laid eggs? Who
among us could estimate the value
of dinosaur eggs? Biologists work
ing in the wilds of Mongolia under
thu auspices of the American Mu-
scum of Natural History have dis
covered Il whole nestful of dinosaur
c-GS. twenty-five of 'em. to be spe-
ciiic, and they say that the value of
the eggs is priceless. Their e%valua-
ton will not be challenged. For
these eggs are big rs moons. com
pared to those of the Industrious
hen of our own time. and they are
past the possibility of deterioration.

timated to be 10, 00O, OOO years old.
