SUGGESTION FOR DRAFT CHANGES MADE IN SENATE

Extension of Age Limit Discussed May Prohibit All Volunteering. WASHINGTON. July 30. Changes' In the selective servtce act were discussed briefly at Monday's semi-weekly meeting of the senate, but the house held only a five-minute routine session. The presiding officers of the senate and house signed and sent to the president the resolution repealing the federal charter of the National GermanAmerican Alliance whose members have been charged with pro-Germaa ' activities. A resolution introduced by Senator Sterling of South Dakota and referred to the Senate Military Committee, asking the secretary of war whetlier men who tried to volunteer for the army but were rejected for physical disability and have since been drafted may be transferred to volunteer organizations, was the vehicle of senate debate. Senator Sterling said it was unjust to have men rejected as volunteers and then forced into draft organizations after a change in the physical standard. Senator Johnson of California said that in the new law being considered to extend the draft ages, which would be before congress within thirty days, the question of prohibiting all volunteering is being disputed. Draft Boards Blamed. Senator Nelson of Minnesota said the action of local draft boards, rather than the draft law, had been responsible for discrimination and sometimes favoritism. Senator Nelson said it has been his experience that most of the men of draft age who have sought to volunteer have been looking for some "soft snap" to keep out of the firing line. In discussing extension of the draft ages, Senator Nelson called attention to the praise by Secretary Daniels of the marines between 18 and 21 who have been In the recent fighting In France and declared youths of these ages make the best soldiers. Opposing reduction of the minimum draft ages, Senator Kirby said he believed the draft age should and will be extended, not because the country's manpower within the draft ages is insufficient, but because men above 31 without dependents should be made to serve. Status of College Men. The military status of the college man in the ranks of the students' army training corps and his relation to the draft were defined today in a war department order. The student soldier is enlisted in the military service of the nation, but upon reaching draft age' he becomes subject to registration whenever the president directs. He the nis placed in Class 5 D, and will not be inducted as long as he remains in the students' army training corps. On the day the order number of the student soldier is reached the fact is reported to the college president, to the commanding officer and to the adjutant general. A report upon the man's record as a student soldier and ns a scholar is Dut before the war de partment's committee on education. and special training with the recom mendatlon that he be called at once to an officers' training camp, to an army camp or be permitted to complete college training by transfer to the enlisted reserve corps. $600 RAISED FOR BELGIAN BABIES The five thousand bouquets of forget, me-nots which were to have been sold for the Belgian children's relief fund Saturday, were delivered at the Commercial club rooms late Monday afternoon. Although Mr. L'llman, secretary of the club, and instigator of the campaign, has not definitely decided upon a plan for disposing of them, he stated Tuesday morning that they probably will be held for another sale within the next few weeks in order that the fund may be raised to at least one thousand dollars. Practically all the citys which have sold the "Belgian Baby" forget-me-nots have turned in to Washington amounts ranging from three to seventy-five thousand dollars, and since the Richmond children made such a tremendous successful sale with the scraps of anything and everything which they hastily gathered together, it is scarcely fair to the reputation of the city to turn in six hundred dollars when the real boquets are here waiting to be sold. Although complete reports even yet. have not been' made, $fi"1.00 was deposited In a local bank Monday, and as poon as the bills, amounting to $66.19 can be checked out. the money will be forwarded to Major leon Osterreith, the Belgian Military Minister in .Washington, who sends it directly to the Belgian queen. The winners of the prizes, which will be silk Belgian flags, have not yet been decided but will be announced later this week.

"Germans Steadily Losing" Writes Local Boy "on Very Active Front"

In a letter to his sister, Mrs. Goldie Porter, Eugene Hart tells of a clash between fourteen French and seven Boche planes. Hart is a chauffeur with headquarters company. The letter follows: "I expect you will no doubt wonder why I haven't written for a few weeks. Well. I have been very busy and at last I found time to write you on this beautiful Sunday evening. "Things have changed since I wrote you the last time. We are now on a very active front. It is fine business up here, plenty of life and excitement. You always ask me if I am where I can hear the noise of battle. Well, every day up here is like the 4th of July at home, only much louder. "We are gradually driving the Boches back mile after mile. They are steadily losing ground. Sees Air Battle. "I saw an air battle a few days ago. Three Boche planes came over our lines looking for trouble and found it. They picked on two French planes and 'thought they had them scared, but the French were luring them back to get help. Pretty soon the Boche planes went back and got four more planes. So the French got 11 more "OWED" TO The world is indebted to you Bill, For a. helluva lot of things; And be not afraid When your cards are played, You'll be handsomely paid, But not in the coinage of kings. A few won't give credit to you Bill, For beginning this hellabelloo. The Devil they claim Is the fellow to blame, But what's In a name, For who but the Devil are you! The world feels indebted to you Bill, For revealing the state of your mind. The half that's completed Seems much overheated. Of the rest you are cheated Mother Nature had sausage to grind. And the world is indebted to you Bill, For another magnanimous work; Your Kultur we've seen, Like a vulture unclean, You may keep it between Yourself and your playmate the Turk. But when the .big reckoning comes, Bill, And you're marking time on your knees; Each useful thing done To your credit we'll sum, Are there many? Just one, With an odor of limburger cheese. The world is forgiving and patient, Bill, When a man degrades only himself, But you ere a clown. With a tailor made crown. Over millions bowed down, While you gamble their blood and their wealth. And the wonder will grow with the years, Bill, Why they patiently toadied to you; With a body infirm. And the soul of a worm, No doubt they will wonder some too. Yes the world Is indebted to you Bill, Buenos Aires Organizes For Trade Interests (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, July 30 An allied chamber of commerce has been organized in Buenos Aires for the purpose of unifying and promoting the commercial and trade interests of the nations at war with the central powers, according to official dispatches received here today. It will be governed by delegates from the American commercial club, and the British, French, Italian and Belgian chambers of commerce, each of which will name three men.

planes and then they met again. The Boches had seven planes and French 14 planes, ours outnumbered then 2 to 1. The Germans looked for trouble and got it all right for the French downed 3 Boche planes and scared the rest away. I have a few souvenirs, nuch as a Qerman shell, a German cap, shrapnel, etc. "Now don't worry about me for I am back a safe distance and I don't thing the Boches have enough iron in their blood to drive us Yanks back. Our own division has already made an excellent name for itself. Some have been decorated for bravery with the Croix de Guerre and our division has been congratulated by General Pershing for its work. "Well,, on the Fourth of June I was made a chauffeur. A chauffeur has the rank of corporal and draws the pay of a sergeant, which is $51.20 a month in France. So fifty-one bucks looks good to me and it is a better job than a sergeant for I will draw a sergeant's pay and I have not. the responsibility of a sergeant, for he has to look after his men and all, and has too much on his hands. What I have to look after is a Ford, and it is always running."

FRECKLES AND TAN SOON FADE AWAY A freckle is merely a discolored, "rusty" spot lodged in the skin itself. Some skins are peculiarly sensitive to the effect of sun and wind. If your skin is of that kind, here's good news for you. A chemist, whose freckles used to embarrass him -juite a bit, one day found out that danthol tetrate was a simple and pleasant way of treating this trouble. The skin seems to absorb it quite promptly, and the way it gets after those rusty freckle spots Is really wonderful. Get an ounce of danthol tetrate from any well known druggist, and apply It with the finger tips twice a day for a few days, and note the result This is also an excellent way of removing tan and similar discolorations of the skin. It costs very little and is not a bit unpleasant to use. Adv.

WILSON URGED AS ARBITER OF IRISH QUESTION House of Commons Asked to Refer Home Rule to Decision of President. LONDON, July 30 In the debate in the house of commons Monday on his motion regarding Ireland, John Dillon, the Nationalist leader, proposed the reference of the question of President WilsonHerbert H. Asquith, former prime minister, also made an appeal to the government in the interests of the country, the empire and the entente allies to try again, even at the

eleventh hour, to find a settlement of the Irish question. Discussing his resolution which expresses the view that the "true solution of the Irish question is to put into operation without delay in regard to Ireland the principles laid down by President Wilson," Mr. Dillon admitted that the Nationalist party was in difficulty, but, he added, "we are because we have struggled to save the constitutional position and bring Ireland into the war, while the government has done everything in its power to drive us out of the war." The Nationalist leader declared the question of Ireland was a war question and that was why he brought it up at the present time. How could Great Britain, he asked, put before the world as one of her objects of the war the freeing of small nationalities when there was Ireland lying at her back door "under the unhappy tyranny of a military government?" Replying to Mr. Dillon's speech, Edward Short, secretary for Irelan, said the government had been compelled to take strong action in Ireland because there was a complete military system in southwest Ireland, worked out with considerable skill and knowledge. Instructions were given, the secretary declared, as to how to cut railways and destroy bridges and communications, while explosives had been secretly imported.

Companies Ordered to Give Up Use of Premiums (By Associated lress? WASHINGTON. July 30 C. F. Bonser & Co., of Philadelphia, Pa., J and the Grocers' Coffe Co., of Indianapolis, Ind., were ordered today by the federal trade commission to discontinue the distribution of premium coupons redeemable for articles of unequal value based on chance in packages of coffee and tea. The practice, which was admitted by the companies, was held to contravene anti-lottery laws and to be an unfair method of competition by the commission. But we have no history of any race of men who didn't know about fire. The earliest Bible records speak of fire.

Liberty Business Men Complain of Mail Service LIBERTY, Ind., July 30. The Commercial Club will send delegates to Indianapolis Wednesday to confer with railroad officials ,in an effort, to secure better railroad service through this town. Mall service has been extremely unsatisfactory during the last month. Passenger service has also been very bad as only two out of the three trains which pass through here to Cincinnati have stopped here and schedules have been very inconvenient. The delegates sent to Indianapolis from here will be joined by others from various other towns along the line.

Strain lemon juice well before mixing and massage face, neck, arms, hands. Here is told how to prepare an inexpensive lemon lotion which can be used to bring back to any skin the sweet freshness of which it has beenj robbed by trying atmospheric condi-1 tions. Wind-chafe, roughness, tan and ! redness are warded off and those tell- j tale lines of care or of age are softened away. The juice of two fresh lemons strained into a bottle containing three ounces of orchard white makes a whole quarter pint of the most remarkable lemon skin beautifier at about the cost one must pay for a small jar of the ordinary cold creams. Care should be taken to strain the lemon juice through a fine cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then this lotion will keep fresh for months. Every woman knows that lemon juice is used to bleach and remove such blemishes as freckles, eallowness and tan, and is the ideal skil softener, smoothener and beautifier. Just try it! Get three ounces of orchard white at any pharmacy and two lemons from the grocer and make up a quarter pint of this sweetly fragrant lemon lotion and massage it daily into the face, neck, arms and hands, and see for yourself.
