Do not let "Wall Street" monopolize the financing of the war, and if you1 do, then do not blame "Wall Street," but admit that it is more patriotic and farsighted than you are. Roosevelt. Young Quakers Off to the Front Th rien&rture of four younsr men of the

Quaker church to train for hospital service, suggests that members of the denomination are making good their promise that they will not be found wanting when the hour for service calls. It takes a degree of heroism that is not small to be attached to a hospital unit that gets under fire whenever an engagement is fought. If members of an ambulance corps are faithful they will be right behind the boys that are falling in the battle. ; An old soldier of the Civil war said the other day that he preferred fighting in the front line in his days to detail work in carrying the wounded back of the line, for there, was more danger there than where the action was hottest. Modern warfare .differs from the battles fought fifty years ago, but the fact remains that a member of a hospital corps is running risks that do not make him a preferred applicant for life insurance.

The Boy Gardeners Civic Gardner Murphy is supervising the cultivation of gardens and the training of the boys. The Richmond Garden Club which he proposes to organize has a double virtue. It will teach the boys useful work, making them producers at an early age, and at the same time keep their minds engrossed during the vacation season. We hope the boys enjoy the club and the

A Chance to Volunteer Dispatches from Washington say that responses to the President's call for volunteers are slow. Two reasons may be assigned: First, because .many men of military age believe that they will be called in due season; secondly, the full extent of the war and of the sacrifices demanded are not understood and appreciated by the American public. - The work of the government in arousing enthusiasm, for volunteer service has been ably seconded by the press and by the recruiting sergeants who are stationed all over the country. The full understanding of the gigantic nature of the conflict will come, we fear, only after thousands of our men have been killed on European battlefields. Young men will be doing their country a service by enlisting now.

Girls That Disappear '

. The whole country has been shocked by the startling disclosures made in New York in connection with the finding of the body of Ruth Cruger. The white slave problem and the question of the disappearance of girls lured into the walks of vice and shame have again come to the front for discussion. Mothers have a tremendous duty and obligation in the training of their daughters. We cannot conceive of a mother who purposely would permit her daughter to err. Some mothers contribute to the downfall of their children by failing to admonish and train them correctly. They do not supervice the hours the daughters spend away from home, and are willing to let them be gone for hours after nightfall, seemingly without a concern as to the places they visit and the company they keep. Perhaps some mothers, and fortunately only a few belong to the class, arevto be blamed more than their daughters. Most of them do their full duty.

GOVERNMENT STILL SEEKS TO PREVENT SHIP YARDS STRIKE NEW YORK. June 28. Officials of the department of labor today continued their efforts to prevent a general strike in the ship building plants in the New York district. Rowland B. Mahany, a mediator of the -department, was expected to arrive today from Washington in an effort to adjust the differences. About 12,000 men would be affected by a strike. Should the strike be called next Monday the government's, shipbuilding program will be materially interfered with, according to officials of the Marine Trades Council, at whose offices it was said twenty-one of the larger shipbuilding and corporations received the council's ultimatum yesterday. The men ask $4.50 a day for ma- , chlnists, an increase of fifty cents a day over the prevailing rate, and similar increases for boiler makers, pat- . tern makers, coppersmiths and other . marine trade workers.

FORMER RICHMOND MEN WRITE FOR CHURCH PAPER

. Two articles of interest to Richmond Quakers appear in the latest number of the American Friend, out today. Clarence M. Case, pastor of the South Eighth Street Friends meeting several years ago, takes up "The Training of Ministers." Case thinks that ministers are not sufficiently prepared, especially in the social sciences and pedagogy, and that too much stress is put upon the formal theological side of their preparation. ' Charles E. Tebbetts, formerly of Richmond and now living in California, gives en interesting description of a trip recently made 'by him into Mexico. Tebbetts attended a conference of missionaries in Mexico City.

PALLADIUM WANT ADS PAY

GREAT LAKES, 111., June 28. There are naval yarns to be spun and nautical jokes to be cracked among youthful tars at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station here, but circulation by word of mouth all right perhaps for the narrow confines of a man-o'war is too ""slow in the midst of hundreds of acres and 9,000 men. That is why The Great Lakes Recruit, edited by Ensign J. C. Waldron, flourishes as the purveyor of all those neat sayings of which exuberant youths are guilty, but for which otherwise they would have only a limited audience. Sketches illustrate many of the wheezes, and in a recent issue of the Recruit, one shows a new man addressing his superior in front of a building labeled "Radio Station," over which stretch the antennae of the wireless plant, 400 feet in the air. - Desires to Know "Say, officer, how do you expect a fellow to hang his washing up there?" the puzzled landsman desires to know. An echo of one of the sham battles staged on the bluffs overlooking Lake Michigan is seen in another contribution: Rookie "Why does this gun kick so hard?" Chief Petty Officer "Probably you overcharged It!" Then, theie is the verbatim guar

Chesty Youth Shown The healthy superiority of the American boy is pictured in a chesty youth, who is talking to a mate: "Did you know that Commandant Moffett is under me?" 'How's ttat?" "I'm tower watch in the Administration building." Given three months at the station and the boys on parade look like Olympic athletes In their splendid carriage.

No humbug! Any corn, whether hard, soft or between the toes, will loosen right up and lift out, without a particle of pain or soreness. Wonderful discovery by Cincinnati man This remarkable drug is called freezone and is a compound of ether discovered by a Cincinnati man. . Ask at any drug store for a small bottle' of freezone, which will cost but trifle, but is sufficient to rid one's feet of every corn or callus. Put a few drops directly upon any tender, aching corn or callus. Instantly the soreness disappears and shortly the cor or callus

will loosen and ean be lifted right off with the fingers. Freezone doesn't eat out the corns or calluses but shrivels or rather loosens them without even irritating the surrounding skis. Just think 1 No pain at all ; no soreness or smarting when applying it or afterwards. Try a little and see for yourself . It is surprising. Few drops stop : corn-pain Take soreness from any corn or callus Instantly Women should keep freezone on their dressers and never let a corn ache twice. If a corn starts hurting just apply a drop.

The next sketch specifies "Raw Recruit" as one of the characters, indicating that if the artist had happened along a day later the new man would not have been floundering in the lake,

while a perplexed officer and a mirthful squad occupied the bank. Questions the Order "Say, Jones, what are you doing in the water?" asks the officer. "Sir, didn't you order us to fall in?" Through all the contributions runs an unquenchable strain of humor, with every now and . then a dash of sentimentality which just couldn't help creeping in as the writer thought of those he left behind. Germany and the U-boats necessarily draw the fire

of men Impatient to be up and at them. Typical of the spirit of the station, as of the jokes on these subjects. Is one which tells of two lads arguing about the translation of "Deutschland TJbur Alles." ' "It mean it's all over with Germany," was one'6 explanation which still remains unchallenged. Reports of athletic events at the station and articles - by officers . on naval history and ship life give a more serious touch to the magazine.

HELPLESS INVALIDS TELL HOW THEY RECOVERED FROM CHRONIC RHEUMATISM Remarkable Photographs Show What Simple Preparation Is Doing For Sufferers From Terrible Disease.

Only those who suffer x from the terrible tortures of chronic rheumatism can understand these pictures. Only those whose Joints are stsiff and painful, whose every hour is constant torture can realize what it means to be well again, to be free from pain and enjoy life once more. The top right-hand photograph shows Mr. Hiram Whiting of Avon, Mass. Mr. Whiting is seventy-eight years old. He was confined to his bed for one year, unable to turn or helf himself in any manner. In constant pain day and night, every move would bring on a paroxysm. Five doctors who attended him failed to relieve his suffering and he was very much discouraged when he started to take Var-ne-sis. Shortly after starting on Var-ne-sis he noticed the pain and stiffness was notably less, gradually he was able to use his hands, the hips became better so that he was able to sit up. The soreness left his knees sand he began to take a few steps, slowly at first, but gradually gaining strength until he was able to go about as well as ever.- Last winter he shoveled snow from his sidewalk and is wonderfully active for a man of his age. The center picture at the bottom is Mrs. L. McMasters .of 312 Humphrey street, Lowell, Mass. Mrs. McMasters said:

"The pain and stiffness has left my JointB, but I will never forget my experience in a wheel chair. For seven years I had not known a day that I did not have pain. Trunk straps were fastened around my body to get me upstairs. On the top step I was laid on a rug and dragged to the bed. The fingers of the right hand were drawn into the palm and the hand drawn to the body. I had to be fed and dressed like a child. I am overjoyed at my recovery and must give Var-ne-sis all the credit." The upper centre photograph shows Mrs. It. Northrop of 43 Hildreth street, : Lowell, Mass. - Mrs. Northrop saidr - ' : i "It was a terrible .experience, but now that I am well I want to tell everyone about Varne-sis. I suffered

from chronic - rheumatism for Ave years. I was in bed for nine months, helpless as a child, unable to move. Every Joint in my body ached and pained me. Even the vibration of the teams passing the house would make me cry out from the pain. "Var-ne-sis was recommended, and gradually I was able to obtain some rest at night. The pais and stiffness left me so that I could leave my bed. and by persisting in the Var-ne-ela treatment every ache and pain left me. I would never know I had rheumatism. It is wonderful to he tree from such a terrible disease." The upper left-hand picture shows Mrs. W. B. Eounseville of 11 Cook street, Lynn, Mass. She said: Tor twelve years I suffered ft seemed a lifetime. Gradually almost every Joint in my body became afflicted, so that I would have to have someone assist me. I was unable to bend my knees and finally had to go to bed. Var-ne-sis was recommended and after taking the medicine some time every sign and symptom left me. To see ma now no one would believe I ever had rheumatism." - Unlike other, anti-rheumatism preparations Var-ne-sis tends to held the stomach. Send to W. A. Varney, Lynn.
