Purpoae I Five-Fold
The officials of the local chapter
have issued a request to the nurse
emploving public, the medical profes
sion, institutions employing gradu
ate nurses and the community at
large, asking that they lend their ac
tive support, in the campaign. Six
nurses have already handed their
names to Mrß. James I. Chamberlain,
chairman for Red Cross service. Com
menting further on the situation. Mrs.
Chamberlain, this morning said, the
purpose of this campaign, which
closes on June 10, is five-fold, viz:
1. To urge the enrollment of every
eligible graduate nuse In the
Red Cross nursing service leading
up to assignment to duty in the Army
and Navy or to specialize in the Red
Cross.
2. To urge married nurses not en
gaged in nursing t.o come back into
the service for the period of the
need.
3. To bring this need fully before
the student nurses now In training so
that they may be prepared to enter
this service immediately l upon the
completion of their training.
4. To bring this great need and
opportunity to the attention of those
women now graduating from our
high schools and colleges, encourage
and urge them to enter the training
school for nurses, both military and
civilian, so as to till the gaps made
bv the enrollment of the graduate
nurses into the military service.
5. To create a public sentiment
that will bring about the release for
public service of graduate nurses
now employed privately.

GRAIN WASTED IN
MAKING BOOZE IS
NEEDEDJN BREAD:
Ex-Governor Hanly Declares j
Liquor Traffic Borders j
on Treason
While striking blow after blow at;
the booze Industry, the rum dls-1
pensers were severely arraigned and
their action characterized as treason
by ex-Governor Frank J. Hanly, of
Indiana, for he said, "what Is it but
giving aid and comfort to the 1
enemy,' as treason is defined in the
Federal Constitution, when the traf-,
11c uses enough food grain to make
11,000,000 loaves of bread a day." 1
Hanly, a former candidate for !
President of the United States, de- !
livered his address last evening un- i
der the auspices of the Flying
Squadron Foundation for national j
prohibition, in the Stevens Memorial
Methodist Church.
Little incidents of whrft the booze j
trade is doing to cause discomfort)
to the people of America were re- i
lated by the Rpeaker. Commenting I
on the fuel snortage of last winter,
he said the condition would have f
been alleviated had not the miners j
lost so much of their time because [
of regular debauches. In one Penn
sylvania miing town he told of I
how but one-half of the employes !
appeared for work each Monday. !
The traffic likewise plays a big part
in the freight and railroad conges
tion of the present time, he said,
for cars to the extent of 1,080.000 are
used annually to transport the raw
and finished product.
The liquor trade "is one institution
in this broad land of ours, which
has ignored all calls for conserva
tion. It demands 110.000,000 bushels
of grain food annually for its manu
facture and costs the nation $2,200,-
000.000 annually in money and in
addition to the countless amount of
woe," he affirmed.
Tracing the difference between
the autocratic government of Ger
many and the democratic govern
ments of the allied countries at the
start of his lecture, he foretold that
"when this war ends, God helping
I us, there'll be an end to king power
and autocracy."

HUNS NO MATCH
FOR THE YANKEES ;

trees of Belleau wood, but the
marines pushed their way through it 1
Towns Are Fired
Out in the open field artillery of- ,
ficers with glasses were directing the
supporting fire, while on the roof of
a nearby farm house a signal man
wig-wagged with his red and white
flag. On all sides the guns were flash
ing, some of them stationed right out
in the field, while others were hidden
in the woods. Looking down into the
valley, only a mile away, the village
of Bussaires could be seen on fire. As
the correspondent watched the scene,
the clouds of white shrapnel smoke
over the village of Torcy also became
brownish and flames appeared in that '
town.
The artillery fire that preceded the
attack lasted an hour and was of es
pecial intensity for five minutes
preceding the time when the marines
went over the top. French and Amer
ican batteries both took part in the
firing, putting down a rolling bar
rage and then shifting to the roads
'behind the German lines.
Forestalled Hun Attack
It appears that the marines 1n go
ing in forestalled an attack that the
Germans had planned. It was to
have been carried out by the Prus
sians who had been put into the line
for that purpose, and was to have
taken place either to-day or to-mor
row. These men had relieved the
Prussian guard division which was
literally chewed up in the fighting of
the last day or two.
The morale of the men is wonder
ful. They are willing to attempt any
thing and are talking with pride of
the heavy losses they inflicted upon
the Germans in their attack this
morning, while all the early reports
Indicated that the afternoon attack
ha,d been even more costly to the
enemy.
Men Ask For No Rest
This latter attack was undertaken
largely because of the splendind show
ing tlje marines made in the dom
ing, coupled w}th the discovery that
the morale of the Germans in the op
posite position was low, which'made
the going easier for the fiery soldiers
of the marine corps. The advance
was carried out by the same men
who attacked in the morning and
who had had no rest. They asked
nothing, however, but plenty of am
munlUon and hardly ate the food
that was brought up to them so ab
sorbed were they In the task of chas
ing the enemy as far as possible.
No one who saw the marines in ac
tion to-day did not thoroughly agree
with the exclamaUon of their com
mander, himself an "Army man,
when he said: "I just wish I had an
army corps of 'em here."

Food Conditions in

New York.—Food conditions in

Alkali in Soap
Bad For the Hair
Soap should be used very carefully.
If you want to keep your hair look
ing its best Most soaps and pre
pared shampoos contain too much
alkali. This dries the scalp, maken
the hair brittle, and ruins It.
The best thing for steady use is
Just ordinary mulslfted cocoanut oil
(which is pure and greaseless), and
is better than the most expensive
soap or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thor
oughly. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub It In. It makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
which rinses out easily, removing
every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and It leaves the
scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsifled cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and
a few ounces will supply every mem
bar of the family for month*.
CROWDER PLANS
TO PUT 500,000
MOREJN CLASS 1
Wires Governors to Probe
Small Registrations in
Top Rank
By Associated Press
WnnhlnKton, June 7.—A general re
vision of classifications under the se
lective service act was started to
day by Provost Marshal-General
Crowder. when he telegraphed to the
Governors of all the states ordering
investigations to determine the rea
son for the small number of regis
trants in Class 1 in some localities.
The lists of some boards 'show an
average far below the national aver
age of 28.7 per cent, registrants
Class 1. Some boards even have
fallen as low as ten per cent.
Thousands of men in Class 4
should be put in Classes 1 and 2, the
Provost Marshal said. The instruc
tions also ordered Investigations to
determine if any men have been er
roneously put in the upper classes
when they should have been placed
in those lower down.
It is expected that the rearrange
ment will bring into Class 1 more
than 500,000 men.
Cases where registrants were mar
ried after passage of the draft act
will be carefully considered, and, if
evidence warrants classification In
Class 1, boards will proceed to re
classify them. Married men whose
wives have sustaining incomes prob
ably will be reclassified.
General Crowder announced to-day
that the class of 1918 registrants will
not be allowed to enlist in the Navy'
or Marine Corps and that no volun
tary inductions will be granted until
order and serial numbers have been
assigned. After assigned, registrants
may enlist if they obtain certificates
