Today's

FIRM UNDERTONE IN CORN TRADING CHICAGO, Aug, 30. There was a firm undertone in the corn trading today .and covering by shorts was apparent In the early transactions. Weather conditions were considered good throughout the belt. The volume of trading was light and offerings were not plentiful. The state report of Kansas showing an excess over the government estimate was virtually without effect on the market. Opening prices which ranged from cent lower to M cent higher with December at $1.08 to $108, and May at $1.05 to $1.05 were followed by slight rallies.. Subsequent fluctuations were within narrow limits. GRAIN QUOTATIONS CHICAGO, -Aug. 30.-The range of futures follows: Wheat Open. High. Low. Close. No trading.

WOMEN IN ARMY WORK IN FRANCE LIKE JOBS Letters Home Indicate They Find Duties and Pleasures Enjoyable.

HEADQUARTERS OF WOMEN'S AUXILIARY CORPS, BEHIND THE BRITISH LINES IN FRANCE, Aug. 30. (Correspondence of The Associated Press.) Women's labor as a part of the British army In France has now passed through its trial stage and won the approval of the army authorities In response to a question, "How do the young women themselves like active service?" the censors atv Women's I Headquarters have permitted The Asj sociated Press correspondence to take I extracts from a number of homeward Tin'infl lttar n-itnn kv wrtTYnan TlrtVV serving in France. One girl writes to her brother: "We are billeted in empty villages and everything is done for our comfort. Army blankets and no sheets seemed a little peculiar at first, but all idea of 6heeta has now vanished, from our minds and we are developing an affection for these warm army blankets as a covering. Allowed. More Liberty. "The restrictions are not at all formidable; in fact, we are allowed more liberty than I personally expected, which is saying a great deal. Army rations may be a Httl6 rougher than the food we have been used to, but the quality and quantity is. good, and hunger is the best of sauces. The work is interesting." Here is a girl's account of her daily routine: "We have breakfast at 7:30 and parade at 8:15. We march down to the offices and commence work at I 9. We leave again at 1:45 and finish at 5 for the day. We are the nearest, camp to the line, and the work at this base is therefore very important. We are free to go out from 5 until 9 o'clock roll-call. That gives us a delightfully long evening." The free time is well employed, as one girl writes: "We went out on Sunday and tried our French, which to our great surprise was understood by the Frenchwoman. We are now studying hard at it. and are also getting up a fehorthand speed class. The army Is developing us already." "Beautiful Scenery." A girl working in a coast village writes: "We are in the midst of beautiful scenery and the most glorious stretch of sea. With such advantages we feel we are absolutely in clover, because we had expected a lot of hardships, and instad we have only inconvenience. Our life in billets, being army, is of course very crude, and we have dispensed with such luxuries as tablecloths, but we have delicious white bread and white sugar. We get a lot of bully beef, and I haven't yet risked by teeth on the army biscuits. we are telegraph operators on night duty. We have a bathing parade at 6:30 every morning. It sounds like a summer holiday but it Is not all pleasure, and my advice to girls who think cf coming over here is 'Don't come out expecting a picnic, because you won't get it.' Whenever we feel inclined to grumble at certain things we think of the men In the trenches, and we feel that our grievances sink into insignificance by the side of the sacrifices they are making." Had to Scour Hotel. A girl recently arrived writes: "Our draft through some mistake had rather a sorry time on arrival, nothing having been prepared for us. We had to put up at a hotel that had not been opened for four years and the first day was spent scouring the place from top to bottom. To hear the girls talk, one would think it was a huge joke, and the way in which they made the best of the situation was splendid." A woman sent to a bases camp where a complete staff of men workers was displaced writes: "We were afraid we would be unpopular with the men on account of turning them out of their jobs, but nothing of the kind. They are very glad to see us and gave us a cheerful welcome. "They had Indeed provided every luxury you can conceive. They had put flowers in our mess and recreation rooms and everything was spotlessly clean. We feel almost swindled, inasmuch as we were definitely promised hardships but so far have been able to discover none." City Statistics Deaths and Funerals. DODRIDGE James M. Dodridge, seventy-seven years old, died at his home. 156 Bridge Avenue, Thursday morning. Bright's disease was the cause of death. A granddaughter, Mrs. Walter Brokamp, and a nephew, James Taylor, survive. There will be a short service at the home at 8 a. m.

Phonographs Used in War Airplanes

PARIS, Aug. 30. The phonograph is proving a useful adjunct to observation officers on duty in the air. These officers, forced to keep their fieldglasses continually on the positions they are observing, have found considerable difficulty in making notes of details as quickly as they see them. Observation airplanes are now fitted with a registering phonograph into which the officers speak through an acoustic tube. Thus all the points the airmen have noted are correctly recorded for future use.
