are an American barber's chair, an
American bootblack stand and a pan

The barbers chair was discovered
"somewhere in England" after a long,
patient search and was bought for ISO.
When the Y. M. C A. people hear the
American soldier, as ha '.retches out
in It, say "Ah-h, that's the stuff." they
know they made a good investment.

In England when an American wants
to have his shoes shlned he looks in
vain for the familiar permanent chair
stands that he was accustomed to find
in his home city. Here he encounters
only an Itinerant sidewalk knight of
the shoebrush equipped with a small
box. No seat 1 provided for the cus

American shoe company presented the

CHICAGO, 111, Aug. 4. (Special.)
The threat of a Nation-wide strike of
telegraphers has been made. Officials
of the Commercial Telegraphers' Union
charge that the "Western Union Com
pany, which they say is still in charge
of the operations of the telegraph, is
discharging members of their organisa
tion In an attempt to discredit Govern
ment control.
They say that approximately 100 men
have been discharged alnce August 1.

others In Cincinnati. Atlanta, San An

"I wired Postmaster Burleson yes

received a wire in reply. Aa a result I
shsll leave for Washington at once.
On Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock I
shall have a conference with Mr. Burle

Mr. Konenkamp said later that he
thought the threatening operators
would take no action pending the re
sult of the conference.
The following telegram was sent to
Vr. Burleson by a committee appointed
behalf of yesterday's meeting, con
sisting of Wade C Worrell. W. V. Bibb.

London was searched from end to end,
and at last a plate was found. But
after the cooker had been constructed,
another problem presented itself. What
were the cakes to be made of? Enter
the wheat-ration-question. The Y. M.
C. A. cooks had one idea as to the
amount of wheat that should be used
for she batter; the British government
had another one quite different. The
cooks had to capitulate to war'a neces
sities and they mixed enough corn
meal and potato flour with the wheat
to conform to the government's views.
To be "In on the first batch" of
cakes, soldiers formed a queue in the
but canteen extending all around the
room. They ate so many cases tne
first week that, according to one of
the hut's secretaries, they used up all
the maple syrup In England. A big
supply of syrup is now on the way
from home, also a consignment oi
buckwheat, the arrival of which will
mean other queues.
The introduction at the camp re
cently of what is euphulstlcally known
as ice cream, caused the quick forma

pancake queue. The average afternoon

the bathroom, he saw the big fellow

soldier greeted him, "I believe you can

The soldiers and sailors ask for all
kinds of things at the Eagle Hut, and
rarely are they disappointed. On ar
ticle in great demand is advice, which
is constantly on tap at the information
window.
A lad in khaki will hang about until
the window is clear. Then he will edge
up to It and In a whisper say:
"Do you think it would be all right
if I married an English girl?"
Before the puzzled official can for
mulate an answer, another soldier will
dash up breathlessly and demand to
know how he can get out of the Cana
dian army Into the American. Still
another will press forward for Infor

Much Ammnnltion Foand.
In the forests of Nesles and Dole
ammunition worth about a million dol
lars was found, the Germans having
failed to explode it. The Germans
made every effort possible to destroy
the great supplies of ammunition in
the vicinity of Fere-en-Tardenols, hav
Ing that village and its vicinity under
long-range fire for three days.
Little trapa left here and there by
the Germans served to annoy but not
to delay the Americans. An officer
lifted the wire which was laying In a
roadway. He pulled a wire and a chain
of three mines exploded. No one .was
near enough to be injured. Among the
score of villages redeemed not one is
tenable. Deserted and in ruins, they

Lorralner. Are Friendly.
The few Inhabitants of Vlller Moy-
enne found friends in the enemy sol
diers from Lorraine. They say the
Germans refused to feed them, but that
the men from Lorraine divided rations
with them, encouraged them and pro
fessed delight at the news of French
successes.
From various villages come reports
that thousands of Germans are march
ing northward In the great retreat.

Tomorrow every man, woman
and child who may be in Multno
mah County will have a chance to
do his or her bit for the boys
fighting "over there." It will be
Red Cross day at Oaks Amusement
Park and every penny that may be
spent at the gate or on the grounds
will be donated to the Red Cross.
No large amount is asked of any
one, but everyone is asked to take
a small part in the benefit. Cumu
lative participation of this nature
will result in a large enough sum
being raised to give relief to more
than one weary or wounded soldier
on his intrepid dash toward the
Rhine.
As your hand foys with jingling
silver, think of our unselfish youths
on their rude pallets as Prussian
missies of death shriek through the
smoke-laden air of blood-carpeted
Flanders and Picardy. They are
thinking of you in their rush to
stop the iron man from trampling
out the innocence of France. To
their home-sick hearts the spend
ing of a few paltry dimes may
bring great cheer. Spend these
dimes tomorrow, and the echo of
such spending will reach Northern
France in the heavenly guiss of
Red Cross relief, s
