WOMEN WORKERS WILL ASSIST IN LOAN CAMPAIGN State Organization Interested in Effort of Wayne County to Put Through Drive.
"The county la well organized for the Fourth Liberty Loan campaign," said Mrs. Charles Drultt, county chair man of the Woman's section, Thursday. Mrs. Georg Eggemeyer is city chairman and Mrs. Edgar Hiatt is vice city chairman for the women's campaign. Mrs. Eggemeyer will use ' as many on the committee of the last campaign as possible. The township chairmen, most of whom served in the last campaign are working on their committees now. The woman's city committee and the men's city committee will meet next Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock in the Commercial Club rooms. This meeting will be held to establish a co-op eratlon between the two. So great Is the impetus already given the Fourth Liberty loan campaign that several of the township chairmen have been besieging the county committee with requests to begin their labors at once. The fact, however, that subscription blanks aro not yet ready to bo given out to the various committees prevents this advance work being done, but early next week the blanks will be in the hands of each township. . Will Get Quota First. The fact that Wayne county will endeavor to put the loan campaign over ' in three days September 25, 26 and 27, Is being watched with Interest by the State organization, which had urged all counties In the State to speed the work this time. Wayne county, however, was the first in the State to definitely announce to W. H. Wade, Indiana director of Sales, that a three day campaign had been settled on and that the organization work was well in hand. If the project is carried through to success, as now seems certain, Wayne county will have reached
Us entire Quota before many counties in the State will have begun their work. Such an achievement would
give the county a prominent place in the records of the Fourth Liberty loan and all members of the organization are anxiously awaiting the day that the actual solicitation begins. As In previous campaigns all banks in the county will receive subscriptions on the partial payment plan. Many thousands of dollars of these subscriptions were taken In previous loans and the indications now are that the coming campaign will bring even a greater number of them.

SAILORS DECLARE WAR AGAINST USE OF NAME 'JACKIE'
GREAT LAKES, 111., Aug. 2S. The word "Jackie" is doomrd. Officers and men of the Great Lakes Naval Station, tueir patience exhausted by piibllc use of the term in referr'ng to Bailors, have declared a new type . of warfare. A Instead of being a term of affectionate esteem as intended by the public, the title Is highly effimlnate and in no way describes the true Great Lakes bluejacket, officers declare. They add that the Great Lakes sailors r.re real men and real fighters not magazine cover idols. The Great Lakes Bulletin, official paper at the Stnllon, points out that the good meaning civilians who insisted on picturing the men as rosy cheeked youngsters who had joined the navy much as they would pick up a r.ew toy, must he supplied with new titles if "Jackie" is to be burled. So the paper offers these synonyms: Sailor. Gob, Tar, Jack, Bluejacket. "If any civilian called a sailor in this station a molly-coddle, there would be a grand fight," says the Bulletin. "Yet the sailorj stand for the appellation 'Jackie.' "

FRANCE SHOULD BE FIRST, 4-MINUTE SPEAKER SAYS
"There are a good many living In the United States today who ought to be dead," said Dr. J. J. Rae, tho fourminute speaker at the Chautauqua Wednesday evening, discussing the treason law which forbids giving aid to the enemies of the country. False reports have been circulated about the president of this country, and repeated by supposedly good citizens, he stated. They have been told about the conditions of soldiers and sailors, about the Red Cross and Red Cross workers, and most of all about Italy, Great Britain and our. Allies; and whenever repeated we have "helped the liar on his Job, said Dr. Rae. "Where did they get the facts?" asked the speaker. "If anyone had stopped to trace them down, all he would find at the bottom would be a black, traitorous falsehood." Quoting a friend who had said that his one great prayer in tho war was that American soldiers would be the first to put their foot on German soil, Dr. Rae maintained that should America, England, Italy, France and all the Allies to be drawn up along the border, ready to step across, that all the others should stand back and let France go first. "Let's be fair," he pleaded. "There are many kinds of fools in the world." said Dr. Rae in closing, "but. the biggest kind of a fool U a religious fool." In forceful terms he denounced the so called "conscientious objectors" as detriments to the country.

"We are all very well satisfied here," says Private Charles F. Grant, who is in France, in a letter written to his mother, Mrs. Fred Grant, 43 South Seventh street. Grant is In the engineers corps. His letter follows: "We are in an American camp now and it looks as though we aro going to be here awhile. It sure looks good
to us after being in some of the places we have been in. "This Is one of the prettiest places in France I have seen. We have fine water and everything nice and I never felt better in my life, and we are a long way from the front. I am as safe here as I was in Peru so don't worry about me. "Over here everything is so old and so far behind times. America Is ahead of them a hundred years in everything. Tho railroads are the biggest joke I havo ever seen. "Had a nice trip coming over. Had a fast boat and smooth sailing all the way. If we were in danger at any time, we did not know it There are lots of things I would like to toll you that I cannot, but we are very well satisfied here. Have had no hard times to speak of yet, and if wo never havo any owrse than this, it will be more of a pleasure trip than anything else." Grant sent his mother a copy of the letter which King George sent to the American soldiers on their arrival in England.
Songs of 15th Century Revived by Castle Court Singers
Quaint customs and songs of the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Centuries were revived y the Castle Court Singers Wednesday evening, when they represented a band of strolling musicians coming bfore the court of Queen Elizabeth. The company was Introduced in the evening by Mistress Joan Barr the pianist, "who was charmlnly costumed In rose color. The other members of the company including Miss Helen Wait, the soprano, Mrs. Sylvia Lewis, contralto; A Angel, tenor; and H. R. Hoffman, baritone, were also costumed in various colors, carrying staves tied with large bows. Although the afternoon concert was somewhat hampered by the equipment being misplaced, the .company was well received and the patriotic numbers called forth great applause. The director. H. R. Hoffman, gave a musical reading. "Not Understood," representing the English type of dramatic art which was quite novel to the Richmond audience. t "Nancy. My Yellow Rose," a negro melcdy, was repeated upon request In the evening program, and "When the Boys Come Home," sung by Mrs. Lewis In the afternoon was especially popular. The Richmond engagement closed the season's work of the company, which had begun in the eastern states, and often had been in connection with
Irvin Cobb's appearances or that of Lieut. Perigord of the French War
Commission, according to Mr. Hoffman. Within the next few weeks, Hoffman himself expects to enter an officer's training camp at Camp Taylor. . Hoffman's regular work has been wit hthe Hampton Court Singers, he stated, which is an organization similar to the Castle Court Singers, but which had been touring the country for several years, recently appearing at many of the military cantonments in the United States and in Canada. The company will be sent to Australia this winter.

MAKE CLOTHING FOR U.S. WAR PRISONERS fBy Associated Press t WASHINGTON, Aug. 29. Because American army and navy officers captured by the Germans frequently lose overcoats, blouses, and other clothing, the American Red Cross has established a tailor shop at Berne, Switzerland, to make new clothing to be sent to their prison camps. Shoes have even been taken from captured men, the leather being greatly coveted by the Germans, and their uniforms, if not taken entirely away, are frequently torn to pieces In the strenuous fighting that has preceded surrender. The Red Cross, finding forty officers in the prisoner list, purchased a complete tailor shop in Paris and moved it to the Berne base. Food, towels, toilet articles, and new clothing are blng supplied through the Red Cross to prisoners, the first mentioned articles being considered most important to supplement the prisoner, for which the Germans make officers prisoners pay in money. Receipts - for these articles . are signed by the men at the camp, in order to make sure that they reach their destination.
