The failure of the government committee to approve the $14,000 portion of the issue means that the work of paving Lafayette avenue. North Seventh street and North Thirteenth street will be held up. It is said that the government had not voted to disapprove the $14,000 end of the loan, bu that approval is being held up until information regarding the necessity of paving the three streets is placed is their hands.

A letter telling of the necessity of paving the streets mentioned has already been sent to the department at Washington, and the county council of defense has started making an investigation to determine whether the paving is essential as a war winning nteastire. Controller Shepherd is expected to return with the

biropractic As Practiced by Thomas and Thomas

The principle of Chiropractic (adjust the cause and the effect is eliminated), to right. Clinical observations of tens of thousands of cases, as far as can be learned every known condition of the human body is subject to, at The Palmer School of Chiropractic, Davenport, la., shows conclusively that this science is reaching all conditions and correcting the cause of disease, opening tlje way for Nature to cure. Chiropractic is not a theory any more, it is a science of facts and is doing for suffering humanity that which other sciences have been striving hard to accomplish for ages.

Chiropractic to unlike any other science purporting to relieve suffering. We do not use osteopathy, surgery or therapeutical agencies, we employ bo drugs, we do not treat, heal or cure. Our hands are our only tools, we merely remove the cause of disease. Nature does the healing. "We have weathered the storms of criticism and antagonism -of other sciences. But we have emerged triumphant.

No matter what yaw are suffering from, consult ua. Ceiling fans, comfortable /lounging rooms and rest couches Insure comfort. Our thirty years professional training have given us a deep understanding of the ills of the human body. Our science has furnished a way to combat these perils.

A CAMP FLIRTATION HAS BITTER CLIMAX

There's

Soldier Out at Rose Poly

Who Deserves Legion of Honor, Or Something.

Camp Rose Poly has a hero. His heroism has not been recognized with a cross of bronze, but his actions branded him as every inch a man and a soldier, worthy of wearing the uniform.

His was not the act of bravery under fire. He hasn't been "over there" yet, but he is of that stripe that will not fail to win the cross should the opportunity present itself.

He is a member of the new detachment that recently arrived at the training camp.

The other evening, as Is the Custom every evening,, the romance-seeking young girls waited outside the fence for the soldier boys off on leave. Among the gathering was a young girl still in her teens, that age of romance that oftime leads to disaster. She smiled at our young soldier. "Sure, she would take a walk." The soldier suggested that they go to her home, which they did, and found that the family had gone out for the evening. She suggested that they stay there, but the soldier suggested that they continue their walk and return when the family came home.

The family was home when they returned. It was after she had introduced her "beaux" to her mother that the romantic young miss grot the surprise of her life.

I am very glad to meet Miss mother," said the soldier. "I am a married man with a daughter about her age we met through a flirtation, and I would Suggest that you put her over your knee and give her a darned good spanking. I would appreciate it If anyone else would do the same for if he caught my daughter doing what youi* did this evening."

Keep the home fires burning.

Then a lull in the music, and from the next room the beds against the same wall—came Carrie's voice. '"Let me sleep on the outside-—it's stifling back here. Oh, what a narrow bed—we can hardly turn. Of course, they had to have the best room,—leave that to Helen. "Why she had nothing to do with it," refuted Lawrence. "But you noticed she didn't Insist on our taking it. She always—"

Helen's face scorched against the pillow. Was Warren awake? Had ho heard? There was no betraying change in his even breathing. "Now you let him pay for these rooms, too," Carrie was querulously insistent. "It's our car—H e a v e n knows what it'll cost us. They're getting off light'* A pause, then, "Is there any drinking water up here' That lemonade was too sweet—I'm thirstier than ever. Where's the bell?" "Oh, they wouldn't have bells here.
