" BRITISH TAKE (Continued from page one) FREE KINDERGARTEN NOT PROYIKG SUCCESS An Average of Only five Children Dauy Are Cared For The free kindergarten furnished by the Surgical Dressing department of the Red Cross is not proving a very successful experiment as there has. been hardly an average of five children a day to eare for and Wednesdav there was nous. In order to secure the heln of mothpra . . i. wno nave small children, this depart ment made arrangements whereby child ren snould be given kindergarten work free from the hours of 9:30 to noon and from 1:30 to 4:30 in tho afternon. The mothers were to bring their children to the postoffice where an automobile would convy them to the Garfield school. Unless there are more who wish to take advantage of this offer, the free kindergarten will be discontinued. According to Mrs. M. L. Meyers in charge of the surgical dressing work. the working girls who have been giving two evenings a week hav proven to be enthusiastic patriots and have done es pecially good work the past two weeks helping to get out the special quota of army dressings. Within a week or so, as -soon as this speeial work has been cared for, tho- women who are giving their time to this patriotic work will devote their time to sphagrum moss. While there is a lot of work for ad ditional workers, Mrs. Meyers says the women of Salem are to be eommended for tho interest taken in the surgieal dressing department and the way in which they have responded to the call from timo to time when headquarters has asked that the quota be largely in creased. Case of Disspondency Despondency is often caused by in digestion and constipation, and quickly disappears when Chamberlain's Tab- tots are taken. These tablets strength- mo aigesuon- ana move tne Dowels. Automobile Races Attraction at Tacoma Taoma, Wash., July 4.

Four Citizenship Applicants Failed Four applicants for citizenship fail ed1 of acceptance yusterdav in the 'court of Judge Bingham before tho tederai officers sent from Portland to question applicants. ; William. Francis Wall was rejected as he had not properly made out his declaration of intention, believing that a residence of a certain number of years made it unnecessary. The law regarding citizenship was changed a few years ago and he had not been in formed. In answer to the question as to why he had delayed his citizenship, Thomas ft Clark, iborn in England, said that ho thought that as his father had taken, uut uLu-Atuaump ijwpvrg, it was not nec essary for him to do so. His applica tion for citizenship was continued. Efidio Belli, born in Italy, nas not present as he happens to be serving ait Camp Lewis.

Faded with age, a curious old ad vertisement of singular interest to day, printed more than 100 years ago in the Salem, Mass., Gaxette, has just been rxought to light to remind us that one of our great war prob lems of the present time is almost identical with that confronting the country in 1798. America needed wooden ships a century past as. she does now. At Salem, "the witch town," there was building a frigate, or war vessel, "a noble structure to maintain our rights upon the seas." Knos Briggs, the contractor, found the work we iring because a sufficiency of timber was not promptly forthcoming. Soi M inserted an advertisement in the 1 Gazette, pictorial enlargement of which, framed, has iust been hung on the wall in the office of John H. Kirby, Lumber Administrator of the South, in New Orleans, History records that in response to this patriotic appeal the timbers needed wer nmmntl nkt.; i i --- r- ""u, una trie !alem frigate was successfully completed, afterward performing valiant service on the high seas. So too, is our wooden fleet of today rap idly materialising definite and im portant results.

Shipbuilding in the South is de clared by a government official to be' proceeding with "amazing" speed.' It is announced by the Southern Pine Association that all yards are now! pine fully stocked with Southern It is interesting to note thai, judg ing by the length of timbers wanted for the keel, the Salem frigate was little more than 150 feet in length.
