Ralph W. Tyler Named to Report Military Happenings on Western Front in France—United States Agrees to Loan $5,000,000 to Aid Republic of Liberia. VOL. XXIV. FIRST NEGRO W PONDENT AND TWO NOTABLE ADDITIONS TO CREDIT OF RECENT CON EDITORS AT V Ralph W. Tyler Named to Report Front in France—United State to Aid Republ Washington, D. C., Sept. 16.—Two notable additions have been made within the past few days to the list of big achievements that may be justly credited to the influence of the recent conference of colored editors and leaders in Washington. One of the direct requests of the Editors' Conference in June was that a reliable colored news-writer be sent to France to report the doings of the colored troops on the western front in France, for the information of the anxious millions of colored Americans in this country and to the end that the correct story of the valor and patriotic devotion of their brethren might be told fully and in a sympathetic vein by one of their own blood and kindred. In compliance with this request, the Committee on Public Information has designated Ralph W. Tyler of Columbus, Ohio, former auditor for the Navy Department at Washington, as a regularly-commissioned war correspondent, to specialize on the conditions surrounding the colored troops in France and to make daily reports of the activities and engagements in which the colored soldiers are prominent. He will be on the staff of General Pershing, commander-in-chief of the American Expeditionary Forces overseas. Every facility has been provided by Mr. George Creel, director of the Committee on Public Information, for the prompt and accurate gathering of all facts that may be of interest to the colored people. First Negro to Be Named as a War Correspondent. Mr. Tyler is the first colored man to be named as a regular war correspondent by any government in the world. He is a native of Ohio. For seventeen years he served in various departments on the Columbus Evening Dispatch and the Ohio State Journal, which gave him experience in the technique of the newspaper craft and afforded him opportunity for association with many influential newspaper men. This intimate contact with such forces will be invaluable to him in his labors as a war correspondent. The fact that he has a wide acquaintance with correspondents now at the front will make it possible for him to get news concerning colored troops which, perhaps, no other colored correspondent could secure. The claims of a number of men were fully considered in connection with this important assignment, but Mr. Tyler was finally selected as the most efficient of those available. Immediately after war was declared by the United States on Germany, Mr. Tyler wrote the President, tendering his services in any capacity. He has three sons, all of whom are at the front in France. $5,000,000 Loan to Liberian Republic. The second of this series of editorial conference achievements is the authorization by the government of a loan of $5,000,000 to the Republic of Liberia, in line with the request of the conference. This fund is allotted to aid in the rehabilitation of that countrys' public finances, which have been reduced to a dangerously low ebb by the cessation of trade, and to develop production of rice and other foodstuffs for the allies, as well as to place on the market many of the greatly-needed products with which the little overseas republic abounds. Much of Liberia's commerce was with Germany, and this has been totally cut off since the former's declaration of war against the Teutons. The granting of this $5,000,000 credit through the United States Treasury had its inception several months ago when Dr. Ernest Lyon, the Liberian Consul-General, made application on behalf of his Government for same, and was helped forward quite perceptibly by a meeting at the White House later, when a committee laid before the President the peculiar needs of Liberia and made plain the faithfulness of her people to the cause of the allies, emphasizing the fact that Liberia is the natural ward of this powerful Government and that its welfare must be safeguarded by America in her hour of peril. The members of the committee, who joined in the appeal to the President were Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal of the famous Tuskegee Institute; Emmett J. Scott, Secretary of Tuskegee Institute, now serving as Special Assistant to the Secretary of War; Dr. Ernest Lyon, former United States Minister to Liberia and now Liberian Consul-General in this country; Dr. James H. Dillard, of the Slater and Jesnes Fund Boards; Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, of the United States Bureau of Education and Hon. William H. Lewis, former Assistant Attorney-General of the United States. Prove Efficient Workers, Though Northern-born Women Have More Endurance Than Those from South. Negro women are leaving the kitchen and laundry for the workshop and factory. They are now employed in New Jersey, according to William M. Ashby, executive secretary of the State Negro Welfare League. In Newark 1,000 are employed in places made vacant by the shifting of Hungarian, Italian, and Jewish girls to the munitions plants, which have not yet taken the colored women workers to any great extent. "At first the colored women were paid $4 to $5 a week, the usual beginners' wages," said Mr. Ashby, "but when they were trained they obtained advances in wages. On the whole, employers regard the experiment as successful." Foremen report that northern-born women have more endurance than those from the South. NEGRO WOMEN ENTER INDUSTRY.

State House REPUBLICAN NE RADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, CO Italian Negro Pa ADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO, SAT SUCCEESS OF NEXT LOAN DRIVE WITHOUT RESPECT TO POLITIGS NATION'S BIG TASK, SAYS HAYS. New York, Sept. 25.—Chairman William H. Hays of the Republican national committee, tonight issued a statement, directed to state, district and county chairmen and all Republican workers saying that "the success of the fourth Liberty loan shall be the Republican party's supreme motive of thought and action until that objective is attained." He pledged the Republican party workers to the policy of "no geography, political or physical, in the patriotism of this country," and declared that everything else than making certain the oversubscription of the loan "is chores." Chairman Hays' statement follows: "To Republican state chairmen, district chairmen, county chairmen and all Republican workers: "The mission of America is about to be accomplished." "American soldiers in France are at this moment demonstrating to the world the reason for America and the stuff of which the republic is made. "Their complete success and the consequent eternal establishment everywhere in the world to the integrity of American rights, interests and honor and the right of men to govern themselves, are all assured with the proper performance of the plainest duty of the citizenry at home. "The fourth Liberty loan is our next objective. "There is no geography, political or physical, in the patriotism of this country. Democrats and Republicans alike love their flag, and are ready to die for it. We continually insist for all parties that the war be kept out of partisan politics, and that partisanship be kept out of the war." "Just as in Congress the Republicans led the fight that made possible the passage of the great war measures, so now the party membership and organization has an immediate, definite war task in the accomplishment of which it can fully function. I repeat, let there be no contest in this country as to anything that touches the war except that contest—who best can serve, who most can give. "The success of the fourth Liberty loan shall be the Republican party's supreme motive of thought and action until that objective is attained. "Wherever Republicans are together, by two or two thousand, it shall be a win-the-war meeting. Just as the Republican party's every action at all times has been and shall be determined solely by how we can contribute most to the war's success, so now our every thought and action shall be determined entirely by how we can make certain the quick over-subscription of the fourth Liberty loan.

HAYS, "Chairman Republican National Committee." --- NEGROES CONTRIBUTE ABOUT 1-5 TO BALTIMORE REGISTRATION. Baltimore, Md.—About one-fifth of the total number of men between 18 to 45 years in yesterday's patriotic registration for Baltimore were colored. It can be truly said that each negro loyally answered the call of Uncle Sam, as he has always done. Won $10 by Being First to Register. The registrants in the colored districts began to gather early; as early as 6 o'clock. Around 9 o'clock long lines were seen at the majority of the registration places. The first man to register at the 14th precinct of the 15th ward was a colored man, who had made a bet with a friend that he would do so and for fear of losing a gold note, he was out at 2 a.m., thinking he would hang around until 6. He said that he had to explain his presence on the corner of Patterson avenue and Calhoun street to several of the blue coated, nickel-badged keepers of the laws, and each and every one believed him—not, and he was forced to do a continuous walk during the wee hours of the morning; but he said that he had never made $5 per hour in any work that he had ever done and it was worth it. THE NEGRO IN WAR WORK. Issued from the Office of Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant to the Secretary of War. Washington, D. C., Sept. 25—In the "drive" for the Third Liberty Loan the colored citizens of Jacksonville, Fla., were asked to raise $50,000. When the returns were all in it was found that he energetic colored citizens had that energetic colored citizens had subscribed for bonds to the value of $250,000—a quarter of a million dollars' worth and five time the amount requested of them. The executive committee in charge of the work among the colored people was headed by Charles H. Anderson, treasurer of the National Negro Business League, and senior member of the firm of Anderson and Company, bankers. In recognition of this splendid showing the general committee awarded an "honor flag" to the colored citizens of Florida's metropolis, and at a monster mass meeting the flag was formally accepted, with Dr. N. W. Collier, president of the Florida Normal and Industrial Institute, St. Augustine, Fla., as spokesman of the occasion. The hostess house for the colored troops at Camp Gordon, which has been in process of erection for several weeks, is now ready for occupancy. The Atlanta Constitution says: "The house is a b uilding complete in its expansion of beauty and comfort, the same attention being given to the details of harmonious and artistic equipment that characterizes all the hostess houses that have been and are still being erected at nearly every cantonment in the country, and is designed along the same lines of the hostess houses for white soldiers." The structure was provided through the efforts of the National War Work Council of the Y. W. C. A., the headquarters of which is in New York City. This fills a long-felt want, as there was great need for the colored soldiers at Camp Gordon to have a suitable place where they might meet their relatives and friends who had come from a distance to visit them. Mrs. Alice Dunbar Nelson, the newly-appointed field worker to mobilize the "woman-power" of the colored people of the nation, has just concluded a successful tour of the Southern States and has formed many new organizations through which the women of the race may aid in winning the war, and stimulated to a marked degree all of the units she found in existence in the cities and towns. Her itinerary covered more than 5,000 miles. She was greeted most cordially by the State Councils of Defense and these organizations throughout the South evinced a disposition to cooperate in every possible way with the patriotic colored women of that section. RACENEWS Gathered From Various Sources RACENEWS Gathered From Various Sources New York.—The B. M. C., of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, in session in this city at Manhattan Casino, hesitated during the regular business session long enough to raise a sum of money to assist LeRoy Bundy to make the great fight for the race that is to take place in the courts of Illinois.

Malone, executive heads of the Poro College of Hair Culture, St. Louis, Mo. Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Malone have for a number of years manifested great interest in the work of Tuskegee and have on a number of occasions contributed to the work. The Poro College is one of the most successful business enterprises owned and operated by colored people. It is said that they employ nearly 100 young men and women at the St. Louis office and factory, and do an average annual business of $250,000. BLACKS FACE TO COMMIT AS SAULT ON WHITE WOMAN. Okmulgee, Okla., Sept. 20.—Convicted of attacking a young woman on a country road two miles east of this city on the night of July 23, Ira E.

Battle Creek, Mich., Sept. 9.—An Alabama Negro select is owner of what are said to be the largest pair of feet at Camp Custer. So large are his pedal extremities that a special pair of army shoes is now being "built" for them. When the shoes are finished, they will be the first he has ever worn. Asked what he did at home in cold weather to protect his feet, he replied that he "went into the house." At Camp Custer the Negro attracted attention when he arrived not only because he was barefooted, but because of the size of his feet. The largest pair of shoes at the quartermaster's depot was several sizes too small. The shoemaker measured the Negro's ankle as 13 inches but would not even estimate the size of the shoes being made. MEDICAL MEN IN CAMPAIGN AGAINST VENEREAL DISEASES Washington, D. C., Sept. 25.—Anouncement is made that a group of prominent colored physicians and surgeons have been appointed by the War Department to carrying a vigorous campaign of education, with a view of combatting the spread of venereal diseases in the camps and cantonments of the country, where colored soldiers are stationed in appreciable numbers. The physicans thus far selected for this vitally important work include: Dr. C. V. Roman of Nashville, Tenn., formerly editor of the Journal of the National Medical Association and author of numerous literary and medical productions; Dr. Algernon B. Jackson, surgeon-in-chief of -Mercy Hospital, Philadelphia, Pa.; Dr. Roscoe Brown of Richmond, Va., and Dr. Ralph A. Stewart of Washington, D. C. According to the plans adopted it is confidently expected that every colored soldier in the army will be reached by this educational work. The work of these physicians is to be supplemented by literature which has been prepared to meet the special needs of colored troops. This is now in press, and a pamphlet covering these subjects simply but thoroughly will be put into the hands of every colored soldier in the army who is able to read. It is hoped to reach those who cannot read by specially-prepared pictorial placards and stereopticon slides. The last mentioned work will be largely in the hands of a group of colored sergeants who are peculiarly adapted by education and training for this work. Fifteen $1000 Bonds WILL PROVIDE: One 155 mm.

Chinese troops negotiated the surrender of 3,000 Austro-Hungarians to a force of Czechs, near Kiakhita, when they mediated between the Czechs and 40,000 Austro-Hungarians who were fleeing. In both Macedonia and Palestine the entente allied forces are giving the already badly beaten Bulgarians, Germans and Turks no rest, while in France the British and French are continuing to draw their net more closely about St. Quentin and the remaining elements of the Hindenburg line in this immediate region, and the American troops repulsed hostile raids in the Vosges. Disaster has overtaken the Teuton army over all fields. In Palestine the Turks are all but absolutely crushed; in Macedonia the entente forces are harrying their foes and threatening them with similar disaster; in France the British and French troops slowly but surely are eating their way into the vitals of the German defensive positions, the collapse of which would result in important changes all along the western battle front, and in eastern Siberia the Japanese have made additional strides forward in the process of reclaiming that territory for the Russians. From north of Jerusalem to the sea of Galilee, in the territory lying between the River Jordan and the Mediterranean Sea, the Ottoman forces have been caught by the swift drive of the British armies and virtually annihilated.

At last accounts more than 25,000 of the sultan's soldiers and 260 guns and large quantities of war stores were in British hands. To add to the demoralization of the Turkish morale, allied aviators are carrying out successful bombing raids against Constantinople.

THE COLORADO STATESMAN proved an active force in the last primary campaign, and it deserves the full confidence of our PARTY LEADERS. Now, let us turn again to the greater struggle YET TO COME. The present united condition must be maintained, and it can be maintained merely by encouraging evidences of appreciation. The high and capable work done by the colored people in the primaries just closed warrant their being kept in close touch with party managers as well as the general party organization. THE COLORADO STATESMAN hopes sincerely that the powers that BE will show their appreciation of our party fealty by giving us move consideration. THE FALL OPENINGS. As the time for fall openings draws near and the approach of autumn looms up, Denver stores take on a renaissance. Already these caravansaries of artistic dry goods and furs are dressing up in their most beautiful colors and showing evidence of new life and special activity. The fall styles and openings as seen in the advertisements of this paper, display the latest designs in newest things ever seen in Denver. Each year surpasses the preceding one, and this year is no exception. We call the attention of our many readers and ask them to glance at the display ads in this paper and see if we do not put you in touch with the very best dealers in the city, in every department of up-to-date goods. It is a feast to the eyes and a pleasure to the aesthetic tast of connoisseurs to see this display of tastely things exhibited to the public. The Colorado Statesman is anxious that its readers get the best in the market at the most reasonable prices. Hence, we advise you to patronize those who advertise with us and you will find it to your personal benefit. COMPETENT MEN AND WOMEN DESIRABLE. Never was there a time in the history of our race when thoroughly competent men and women were more desired. Has it never occurred to you when you look around for a qualified, strong, clean, reliable, intelligent man or woman that this kind of article is very scarce? Much of our trouble is lack of this kind of material. If you will just investigate for yourself and go into examination among the present list of so-called best people you will be surprised. It is strange that our young men and women cannot or do not learn this one valuable lesson—that position, pay and promotion lie open to those who will fit themselves thoroughly to take responsible places and fill them with credit and honor. Employments, offices, places, high honors, promotions and noble careers are waiting for men of character and brains right here in Denver. A man thoroughly competent to do good, rapid, exact, careful work, thoroughly honest, industrious, punctual and frugal, will rarely have to look far tor employment. Work and wages will surely find him out, and the laws of recompense and compensation will assuredly obtain in his favor. Men of affairs are constantly looking for the best, not a make-shift. The fault of incompetence may not have distressing effect in the case of ordinary labor, but it assumes the proportions of crime when it reaches higher and more responsible positions. A stenographer has no right to expect employment when his or her work is not reliable and their speed and execution dexterous and correct. A position as private secretary calls for exacting pains for detail and alertness in anticipating the needs of the employer. A clerical position in office or store or shop calls for thoughtfulness and exactness in computation and quick knowledge of figures and of buying and selling and operating cost. A clergyman or political leader has no right even to assume leadership in things spiritual or political when his life is steeped in ignorance and his mind uncultured by previous training, and so on through every profession and duty. The days of paid ignorance and incompetence are doomed in the land, and incompetent and unprepared, struggle as they may, must settle down to defeat. Even if their friends hold them up, those who require their services will object. The young men and women who would stem the current must make the preparation for the successful performance of duty. The age clearly and certainly calls for one hundred per cent men, who will carry their end of the burden, do their share of the world's work, hold their own in competition, excel in comparison, meet new exigencies and win in the struggle. If you cannot meet these serious, trying, taxing conditions, then do not wonder that you are distanced in the race.

Only One Road to Peace — America Must Go on With War Until It Is Won Only One Road to Peace — America Must Go on With War Until It Is Won By ROBERT LANSING, Secretary of State. Prussianism and the idea of enduring peace among nations can never be brought into harmony; compromise cannot even be considered. C. NAMI & ENDS It is a fact not generally known that within six weeks after the German government had, in the case of the Sussex, given this government its solemn promise that it would cease ruthless slaughter upon the high seas, Count Bernstorff, appreciating the worthlessness of the promise, asked the Berlin foreign office to advise him in ample time before the campaign of submarine murder was renewed, in order that he might notify the German merchant ships in American ports to destroy their machinery, because he expected that the renewal of that method of warfare would, in all probability, bring the United States into the war. How well the ambassador knew the character of his government and how perfectly frank he was. He asked for the information without apology or indirection. The very bluntness of his message shows he was sure his superiors would not take offense at the assumption that their word was valueless and had only been given to gain time and that, when an increase of Germany's submarine fleet warranted, the promise would be broken without hesitation or compunction. In view of this spirit of hypocrisy and bad faith, manifesting an entire lack of conscience, we ought not to be astonished that the Berlin foreign office never permitted a promise or a treaty agreement to stand in the way of a course of action which the German government deemed expedient. I need not cite as proof of this fact the flagrant violation of the treaty of Brest-Litovsk. This discreditable characteristic of German foreign policy was accepted by German diplomats as a matter of course and as a natural, if not a praiseworthy method of dealing with other governments. We must go on with the war. There is no other way. This task must not be left half done. We must not transmit to posterity a legacy of blood and misery. We may in this great conflict go down into the valley of shadows because our foe is powerful and inured to war. We must be prepared to meet disappointment and temporary reverse, but we must, with American spirit, rise above them; with courageous hearts we must go forward until this war is won. Eating Dessert First Would Be Direct Step Towards Malnutrition A scientist has advanced the theory that dessert eaten before instead of after the meal will diminish the desire for food. This probably is true, but would it ultimately be conservation? Would it not be a direct step toward malnutrition? A person may eat sweets and "spoil his dinner," as it is said, but a few hours after dinner he will be haunting a pantry. The sweets possibly will allay hunger, but they surely will not lessen it. We do not eat primarily to satisfy hunger. We eat to provide our bodies with material to build up the tissues broken down in the course of our daily actions. To build up muscles one must have a definite amount of protein and he cannot continue without it. It is known sweets and sugar, while very necessary along with the other food, contain practically no protein. To follow the plan the scientist proposes would be deceiving ourselves into believing we do not need food. The inevitable result would be we would awake a few hours later to the fact that "someone had been deceiving us." Americans Called Upon to Serve Their Country by Saving Pennies By G. H. CHADBOURNE A war savings campaign has been organized on a wide scale. The attention of every American of any age is called to the privilege, the duty, the necessity of serving themselves and the country by saving the pennies as we must save crumbs—enough pennies equal a valuable War Savings stamp or a Liberty bond, as enough crumbs equal in food value a loaf of bread. We buy too freely; we eat too much; we serve too large portions; we indulge our appetites and habits beyond good sense and good health; we sweep the crumbs into the fire; we burn "rubbish" that should be fuel—there's no end of our waste, and few of us wish to or can deny it. Let us not only begin the every-day and every-hour practice of saving in food and drink and fuel and clothing and of putting the saving into Liberty bonds and War Savings stamps, but let us take our own personal lives in hand and be cleaner, wiser, healthier, better citizens for having discarded habits of waste and adopted saving all along the line. Make Sacrifice for Education to Aid in Reconstruction After the War If thousands of parents must give up sons to make the world safe for democracy, shall not other thousands of parents give up sons and daughters to the high schools and colleges of the country, to prepare to do a great service during the remainder of the war and during the reconstruction period after the war? Never in the world's history have parents had a greater opportunity to aid in the world's betterment. Of course with your son or daughter kept from school or college, and thereby missing the opportunity for greater service, it would not make any great difference, but with thousands of parents deciding as you decide, with the same reasons, we might lose all that we are fighting for. Many parents this fall will make unusual sacrifices in order to send their sons and daughters to high school and college, but there will be great joy in the sacrifices Wonderfully Good Looking Exclusive models with the charm and chic of the smartest Paris and New York designing. —at surprisingly low prices. —meaning home hats. —or less expenditure. —or better appearance. 9.50 to 27.50 N.

TO SALVAGE ARMY CAST-OFFS. Great Southwestern Conference at Denver Next Week Will Extend Campaign to Provide for Thousands of Men Rejected or Discharged as Victims of Tuberculosis—Southwest Has a Double Problem to Solve. New York, Sept. 25.—How to solve the problem presented by the thousands of men rejected by draft boards or at camp, or discharged from the army on account of tuberculosis, will be the chief question taken up at the Southwestern Tuberculosis Conference to be held in Denver, Colo., October 4 and 5, according to announcement made today at New York by the National Tuberculosis Association, under whose auspices the conference will be held. The seven states of Arizona, California, Colorado, New Mexico, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas will be represented at this gathering, at which army officers, federal, state and local officials, and tuberculosis and Red Cross workers will lay out the concrete measures needed to restore these rejected and discharged men to health. self-support and usefulness. Work Now Under Way. The southwestern states, the announcement points out, must assume responsibility for the conditions of large numbers of these men. At present, boards of health, tuberculosis associations and the civilian division of the Red Cross in those states are receiving from the Surgeon General of the Army, through the medium of the National Tuberculosis Association, the names and addresses of all men rejected or discharged at camp as tuberculous. Following a cooperative plan, these several agencies are endeavoring to get into touch with all such men and to provide treatment for those who need it. Substantial progress is being made, but this tier of states, the association declares, has to face the additional problem of the indigent migratory consumptive. At the Spokane conference, the difficulties in the way will be considered and practical means of obtaining maximum results in future will be worked out. Prominent Speakers On This Subject.

CHRISTMAS PACKAGES TO CONFORM TO RULES Gifts for Soldiers Must Reach New York by October 15; Coupons from France Necessary for Consignments. Additional instructions with regard to the sending of Christmas packages to American soldiers and prisoners of war abroad were given out yesterday by John W. Morey, manager of the mountain division of the American Red Cross. Manager Morey calls attention to two points: That packages intended for American prisoners of war must reach New York not later than Oct. 15, and that packages for other soldiers may not be sent until the receipt of a label or coupon, which is given to the men and by them sent to their families or friends. Official Rules Given. Following is the official information, which the families of soldiers are asked to clip and file for reference: "Only one Christmas parcel may be sent to each American prisoner of war confined in German and Austrian prison camps, and in all cases preference will be given to packages sent by the family of the prisoner. These packages must be mailed or expressed directly to the warehouse of the Atlantic division, American Red Cross, 20 East Fifteenth street, New York City, N. Y., so that they will arrive prior to Oct. 15, 1918. "Christmas parcels may be sent to members of the American expeditionary force in allied countries only when accompanied by a label, also known as a coupon, which labels will be issued to the men and by them sent to their nearest of kin or some friend. Killess Soldiers Cared For. "In the event of the soldier having neither relative nor friend who would be able to send him a Christmas parcel, arrangements will be made by the American Red Cross to have parcels forwarded to such individuals. Relatives or friends receiving these coupons or labels will prepare the packet and deliver it to the nearest Red Cross chapter, where the packet will be inspected, in order to ascertain that no contraband articles are placed therein, and then will be placed in a Red Cross carton and shipped. Full details relative to the nature of the articles permitted, the weight of the package, etc., and the date upon which these parcels must be in the hands of local Red Cross chapters for forwarding, will be furnished the public as soon as the details have been worked out with the War Department and officers in charge of the American expeditionary forces. "There is no need for haste in this matter, as there is in the matter of Christmas parcels for prisoners of war in enemy countries, as it will be impossible for any family or friend to send a package until the coupon has been received from the individual for whom the Christmas parcel is intended."

What Time Is It? In order to release Labor and Equipment for the efficient handling of essential traffic, we must, beginning next Monday, September 30, at 12.01 o'clock in the morning, discontinue giving the time of day in response to such inquiries over the Telephone. We must also, at the same time, discontinue "Alarm Clock Calls"—the practice of calling people at certain hours in the morning—the telephone bell taking the place of the jangle of "Big Ben". IT IS TIME TO CONSERVE THE USE OF THE TELEPHONE It is time to conserve labor and equipment by the elimination of traffic which is outside the normal functions of a telephone exchange. In Our Mountain States System We Answer A Daily Average of 62533 Calls for the Time of Day This is equivalent to the work of over thirty operators every day in the year. Certainly this is not a service that should be demanded in these unusual times when every unit of labor and every unit of equipment is required for war service. It isn't a pleasure to withdraw privileges from our patrons, but sentiment finds no place in the grim necessities of war. May we hope for a cheerful acceptance of this very necessary action on our part? More calls for the time of day are made by children than by adults especially between 8 and 9 o'clock in the morning when the youngsters are getting ready for school. Will you please help us by informing your children of the discontinuance of this service. Are You WORTH Fighting For?

In all cities with organizations janitors receive 40 per cent more wages than unorganized ones. A few years ago plumbers received $3 per day. Now they receive $7, and just so with all organized trades and common labor. Unorganized labor is in keen competition with each other for a meager existence. Come, join, and let us help each other. Again the Government comes to the people of the country with the request that they lend their money, and lend it upon a more liberal scale than ever before, in order that the great war for the rights of America and the liberation of the world may be prosecuted with ever increasing vigor to a victorious conclusion. And it makes the appeal with the greatest confidence because it knows that every day it is becoming clearer and clearer to thinking men throughout the nation that the winning of the war is an essential investment. The money that is held back now will be of little use or value if the war is not won and the selfish master of Germany are permitted to dictate what America may and may not do. American America, besides, have from the first time now dedicated both their lives and their fortunes to the vindication and maintenance of the great principles and objects for which our Government was set up.

The Public Utilities Commission wired F. E. Clarity of the car service section of the Railway Administration at Chicago requesting the sending of more double-decked sheep cars for the Leadville, Gunnison and Mofaf road sections. Mr. Clarity replied that every possible effort will be made to divert cars to Colorado, but that extremely heavy loading of sheep is now going on in all the western states, resulting in a shortage of cars. Naval Training Starts. Boulder.—The University of Colorado has been made a naval training station. H. A. Kohlmeyer; a chief electrician, and Edward Griffin, boatswain's mate, have opened offices in the Woodbury building at the university. Lieut. Stanley Mitchell will arrive later and take charge of the station. THREE DIE OF INFLUENZA. Colorado Boys Succumb to New Epidemic at Camr Dix. Three Colorado boys died Sept. 25 at Camp Dix, New Jersey, of Spanish influenza, or its effects. The boys were Nathan Karchner of Denver, Albert S. Donovan of Fort Collins, and Lloyd Potts of Loveland. The death of these boys at the camp emphasizes the seriousness of the new malady and the necessity of guarding closely against the disease. THE KITCHEN CABINET Despise not thou small things, The soul that longs for wings To soar to some great height of sacrifice too off Forgets the daily round Where daily cares abound. And shakes off little duties, while she looks aloft. BANANA AS FOOD. ANANAS are a most wholesome, nourishing food. Being deficient in flavor itself, the banana absorbs Savors readily and presents a good medium by which such flavors may be brought into notice, thus afford- B National War Garden Commission which such flavors may be brought into notice, thus affording a great variety of combinations. Because of the lack of acid in its composition it should be a popular breakfast fruit. The cooked banana, even slightly cooked, is more easily digested than the raw fruit. Simply covering the ripe, thinly sliced fruit with hot cereal will cook it sufficiently. Banana Croquettes With Lamb Chops.—Remove the peeling and coarse threads from five firm bananas; cut the fruit in halves crosswise, trim off the ends to make the halves symmetrical at the ends; roll in egg which has been beaten with a tablespoonful of water, then roll in sifted crumbs and fry in deep fat until brown. Drain on soft paper. Two minutes will be long enough for cooking. Serve with broiled lamb chops. Compote of Bananas With Orange Sirup.—Remove the peel and coarse threads from six ripe bananas; let stand covered with boiling water a minute, then drain and pile in the form of a pyramid on a serving dish and pour over them a cupful of orange sirup. Orange Sirup.—Boil a cupful of the juice and pulp of orange, the juice of half a lemon, one cupful of sugar and one-quarter of a cupful of water six minutes or until slightly thickened. Baked Bananas.—Pull down a section of the skin of each banana, loosen the pulp, remove the coarse threads and return the pulp to the skin, lay the fruit thus prepared in a saucepan and bake in a hot oven until the skins are blackened. Remove the pulp from the skins, bend in a half circle and place on a serving dish. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and chopped nuts as a dessert; or pour over a jelly sauce. Melt half a cupful of currant jelly, add a half-cupful of sugar and cook five minutes, then stir in a teaspoonful of cornstarch, made smooth with a little water; cook five minutes and add a tablespoonful of butter and a teaspoonful of lemon juice. Fruit Cocktails.—To six tablespoonfuls of fruit juice add two tablespoonfuls of honey, the pulp of two oranges, three diced bananas, and four ripe peaches, diced. Divide into cocktail glasses and serve. This may be used also as a dessert. Sure they of many blessings should scatter blessings round. As laden boughs in autumn fling their ripe fruit to the ground. "TIS PICKLIN' TIME." O GREAT is the variety of relishes that she is indeed hard to suit who cannot find some which her family-can enjoy. Rational War Gards Commission National War Garden Commission Sliced Cucumber and Onion Pickle. Take three dozen large cucumbers, peel and slice thin and cover with a sprinkling of salt overnight. Peel and slice one dozen small onions and treat in the same way, but do not mix them. The next day drain and squeeze dry. Scald the vegetables in a pint each of water and vinegar, then drain dry again. Now take a quart of vinegar, one cup of sugar, one ounce of celery seed, three teaspoonfuls of mustard seed, two teaspoonfuls of white pepper; when boiling hot put in the vegetables. Just let them scald, but do not cook, then seal in jars while hot. Chutney.—Chop one dozen apples, two green peppers, one onion and one cup of raisins; add two cups of vinegar, one cup of sugar, the juice of one lemon and a half tablespoonful each of ginger and salt. Cook all together two hours. Marion Harland's Relish.—Cut the corn from twelve cobs; break into flowerets one head of cauliflower, cut into half-inch lengths one bunch of celery, seed and chop fine two green peppers, add three tablespoonfuls of salt, one and one-half pounds of brown sugar and three pints of vinegar. Add the sugar to the vinegar and when scalding hot pour over the vegetables. Now cover closely and cook ten minutes. Add a tablespoonful of mustard and seal in jar. Wrap in papers to keep the mixture a good color. Tomato Conserve.—Cook until thick five pounds of ripe tomatoes, three lemons, juice, pulp and rind; two pounds of sugar, one cup of shredded citron; when thick add one and one-half cupfuls of seeded raisins and one cupful of walnut ments. Ripe Cucumber Chowder.—Grate twelve large, ripe cucumbers and three onions; press the pulp dry, then add one chopped red pepper; salt and pepper to taste, with vinegar to make the mixture as thick as prepared horseradish. Seal for winter use. Nellie Maxwell Western Beef Co. ```markdown ``` Open Daily to 8:30 p. m.

UNDERWOOD & UNDERWOOD Black frocks embroidered in gray yarns and black embroidered in silver are among the foremost successes in the season's showings of new ideas. It is a sedate combination even when the embroidery is elaborate and in a bold pattern, and it proves to be as effective when very dark blue—called night blue—is used instead of black. The lovely gown shown in the picture above employs this deep blue in a dress that is rich enough for the opera and quiet enough for anything else. Costumers are giving much attention to gowns of this type, for their task is to achieve designs that couple distinction with quiet colors. In the gown pictured there is an underbodice and a skirt of night blue satin with a bodice of georgette draped to simulate a belted coat and waistcoat, over it. There is a soft girdle of the georgette and, at the left side, an unexpected and pretty touch in two long ends each of narrow moire ribbon. Much of the embroidery, which is an important feature on this season's dresses, is done in long stitches and easily worked. The effect is good Novel Wraps and Coats THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY THE FASHION OF THE TRENCH COAT Only a few of the coats and wraps for fall and winter lay claim to novel designing. For one thing, designers restrict the amount of materials to be used to definite lengths that do not allow anything for merely decorative additions to these wraps, and for another—simplicity is the fash'on; the public generally likes it. One exception to the rule that allows a scant measure of goods for a coat appears in the handsome model shown at the right in the illustration above. This is a heavy, castor-colored garment, of pom pom cloth, with a shawl collar and deep cuffs of otter. It is made with the approved doublebreast, fastening to the left, near the waistline, with handsome buttons. These are square and match the coat in color, with rims in the dark shade of the fur. Four of them are set on each sleeve and one on each pocket. The coat is straight, but is drawn to the figure at the waistline by a soft girdle of the cloth. The designer might have considered the coat complete if nothing more had been added to it; but there was the temptation to add the charm of the straight panel and the smart suggestion of a military cape all at one and the same time—and it was done. Therefore there is a long, narrow cape, banded with fur finished with buttons, which puts --- and the work goes quickly, but the wide bands on the handsome gown pictured are not embroidered in this way. Many of the stitches are short and set close together. This pattern is striking and exactly suited to the yarn used for working it out. The dress is simple in design, and needs to be, since the things to be emphasized in it are the lovely color combination and the bold and rich embroidery. A dress of this kind calls for a hat that will play up to it, and a broad-brimmed model, in velvet, or velvet and georgette, of the same dark blue, can hardly be too simply trimmed. Such a hat is shown in the picture and might be in black with as good results. The pumps are of black patent leather. Satins Will Be Favored. Satins promise to be the greatest favorites among silks for fall. Separate skirts have hems of contracting material and color. A this extravagant and beautiful coat in a class where it has few rivals. For mild climates, or fall wear, there are some scarfs and capes suited to between-seasons that are often clever combinations of two accessories in one garment. The cape shown in the figure at the left of the picture contrives to extend itself into a broad girdle with sash ends that are finished with a handsome yarn fringe. Fringe is a much coveted decoration these days and these sash ends are further enriched by embroidered dragons that match it. Capes Are Stylish. Capes are very desirable and very stylish. But if a girl can have but one wrap outside of the regular raincoat, a warm wool coat is the best choice. Those for this season are, for the most part, belted, double breasted, having patch pockets, collars which can be rolled high and the coat reaches the edge of the dress at the bottom. Materials are much the same as they have been in the last two seasons; wool velours, duvetyn or other woolly surfaces. Bolivia is a beautiful material, but its wearing qualities are somewhat doubtful. J. R. CONTEE, Pres. and Mgr. Phone Main 6123—Day or Night, Residence Phone York 7992 The V. V.
