(United Press Leased Wire.)

WASHINGTON, D. C, May 24.>—If the present peace is. kept up,the new national army will haveits equlpmenu awaiting it by thetime it begins to assemble at can-tonment points in September.

Already options have been se-cured on huge quantities of leath-er at prices much lower than thepresent quotations and in suffi-cient quantities to assure the newarmy an adequate supply.

The supply committee of thenational defense council is todaycompleting arrangements of anextensive system of co-operative

committees of teh leading repre-sentatives of th industries thatwill be called on for clothing ofall kinds, uniforms, bedding, quar-termaster's supplies, and every-thing that will be needed in thearmy's subsistence departments.

Through thees coo-operativecommittees almost all of whichhave been thoroughly organized!and statred to work, mills and fat-jtories throughout the countryhave been Induced to get itno themarket for government contracts.As far as is possible, all suchpiants have been standardized. I

While officials naturally aye

not explicit ir regard to the mu-ni! Ir.n supplies obtained and foCii-rnuiing, it is said that tbe workof supplying guns, bullets, pow-der and shells for the new armyhas kept pace with the great ta.kof arranging for other supplies ofall sorts.

|dH g^/c^U C_*»Ol/_r_fG£V 'n *^c *'ntro^uction9 SLn^v^ fi^ J* \o the book of in-

(fT >̂ ¥4-^'^^^^^' ttruction for Pullman employes occursthe phrase: "The most important feature

to be observed at all times is to satisfy and please passengers,**and again "the reputation of the service depends as much uponthe efficiency of employes as upon the facilities provided bythe Company for the comfort of its patrons."

Such personal service cannot be instantly developed; it canbe achieved only through years of experience and the closepersonal study of the wide range of requirements of twenty-sixmillion passengers.

To retain in the Pullman service experienced car employesof high personal qualifications, pensions are provided for theyears that follow their retirement from active service, provisionafforded for sick relief assistance and increases in pay aregiven at regular intervals with respect to the number of yearsof continuous and satisfactory employment

A further inducement in which civility and courtesy arecounted of great importance, is the award of an extra month'spay each year for an unblemished record. As a result, a largepercentage of Pullman conductors and porters are qualified bymany years of experience to render passengers the highesttype of personal service.

THREATEN R. R. STRIKE~

11'lilted Press la-iiscil Wire.)IAN FItAN'CISCt), May St.—A strike of railroad men mi the

Pacific COM) ir; feared as (lie result of meager reports drifting in onI lie strike vote now being taken by 8,000 employes of the SouthernPacific company,

J.. 1,. Sanliorn, general chairman of the Brotherhood of Loco-motive i'inducers staled today that early reports indicate the menwill support their organizations in the demands. The strike votehas linen in progress for nearly two weeks. All ballots will havebeen in by June 10, and an official announcement will be madeJune 15.

"The men nre asking BOUtlng new," Sanborn declared. "We areasking only Unit which the Southern Pacific ngreed to give usjn theagreement signed in ttlS. We ask official recognition, the rate ofpay that was agreed upon and other conditions.

"Of course), a strike will not necessarily follow the declarationof the men, but If the Southern Pacific refuses to negotiate after ithas learned the attitude of the men, it is llm logical move."

More than K.OOO Southern Pacific employes are voting. All aremembers of the four brotherhoods.

SPRY TOMMIES RILE WThe cheerful spirit of the British soldiers in battle is the thing

the Germans hate; und the French, for whom the war is a matterof life and death, cannot understand it.

Describing this spirit of the Dritii.li Tommies in the trenches,Capt. Lan Hay He-it li, late of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders,entertained an audience which packed the First CongregationalChurch to the doors Wednesday nlnht, when he lectured on "TheHuman Side of Trench Warfare." Capt. Beith enlisted at the bggte-ning of the war and was one of Uic first 100,000 of Kitchener's army.

".English soldiers taky the- war as a game," he said, "and thisis a deep shock to the methodical souls of their Uernian opponents,who consider each unseemly levity a real breach of Internationallaw. They regard our Scottish kiits as unmanly. Their sensitivefeelings are outraged time and again by our disrespectful attitudetoward the war.

"One regimcni of London cockneys made a trench charge sing-ing, 'We beat you at the Marne, we beat you at the Alsne, we gaveyou hell at N'etive Clmpelle and here we are again.' It is rude actionslike liiis that make ihe Germans feel they are superior In their"kultur.' "

SAVE THECHILDRENBY SA.MIIX <-OMPKBS,

Pi • -ib ii' American Federation of l.nl.in .No more indefensible demand can be made at this time than

that to relax federal and state chMd labor laws.The standards established to protect and conserve the health

and welfare of men, women and children are not privileges to hecast lightly aside at the first appearance of danger and new problems.

They are Inseparable from the very existence of the nation, tobe sacrificed only in the last supreme effort for pelf-defense.

Until by actual tests the men and women of the nation haveproved themselves unable to cope with the emergency, we ought notto attempt to shift our responsibilities upon the shoulders of the

children.

mitted to the council of national defense today created a sensationat lumber headquarters of the council, tho West Coast I-umliermen'sassociation figeres being considerably lower than those submittedfrom other producing regions.

It was estimated that fir for army cantonments, on the pricessubmitted, even figuring in the long transcontinental haul, couldsuccessfully compete with other regions as far east as Chicago. Thiswill give the fir manufacturers a considerable slice of the businessto be awarded soon.

The fir ship specifications were released yesterday by Gen. Goe-thals' office, calling for the best type of wooden vessel that has yetbeen designed—a vessel 280 feet between perpendiculars, and of3,500 tons.

Vacation-Time For a ChangeVacation days mean a change for the whole family—und espe-

cially for tho rhlldren.It does not seem fair to the little ones that they should spend

the entire sumtiicr enjoying the Hlg Out-01-lloots, when,indoors, in their mouths, are teeth tluil need straightening,filling, ('leaning. While they are Innocently having aglorious time in the open, there Is probably lielng storedup lots of trouble In their Jaws which a few hours in adental chair, with skilled specialist,**!, operating with pain-less nielliodH, might prevent. One afternoon's wadinggiven ii| > might save many days of wailing.

Teeth cannot be neglected nowadays. Only uncivilized peopleoverlook dentistry. Every parent, living In the TwentiethCentury, owes it to lilh children, as much as he owes themclothing and food and shelter, to ensure their possessing ahealthy, sound,-straight set of teeth. Good teeth meangood ennui-, and good eating, nine times out of ten, meansgood health.

Instead of spending all the vacation money on a frolic, layaside just a little for the molars of your boy or girl. Andit wouldn't be amiss if you laid a little more aside forfather and mother, who, like many others, probably needibis sort of vacation change quite as much as they needseaside or mountains.

The cost? Well, good dentistry is never dirt cheap. But gooddent'stry can he reasonably priced—and it Is when youpatronize a Painless Parker office, where the rule Is always <to charge a fuir figure for the work, that you will learnthe difference between Dental Trust prices and our own.

What a sensible investment it would be now, when the WorldWar Is fast demoralizing economic conditions in this coun-try, if you arranged for the entire family to have Its teethset right before the cost of labor and materials forced aserious increase In the price of dentistry?

Vacation means a change. Is there any more beneficial changethan the transforming of a troublesome set of teeth intoreliable ones?

And, if you hare had experience with a practitioner who lacareless, lacks pride in his work, charges all sorts of pricesand doesn't know how to operate painlessly, make anotherchange and visit one whom hundreds of thousands havefounded absolutely reliable—

Painless Parker, Dentist
