SPEED NEEDED TO FILL DRAFT ?
DEMANDS, SAYS CROWDER h
ti
Washington, Aug. 5.?The man- t,]
power bill which places the draft
ages at 18 to 4.r> years inclusive, and f
which is intended to add millions of j,
men to America's military strength, was
introduced in both Houses of
Congress to-day. Senator Chamberh.in
and Representative Dent, chair- *'
men of the two Military Committees,
put in the bill. Under their agree- 0
>1 muni 10 i ran sari no uusinoss, ttie lion- . * _
, ate anil the House adjourned almost 11
immediately after assembling. 1
Already because of the heavy ad- v
' ministration pressure back of the bill
and the necessity for the legislation, (
emphasized in a letter from Major n
General Enoch H. Crowder, the Pro-1
vast Marshal General, plans are beI]
' 'ng made to call the Senate back inv
to regular session, perhans by the ^
beginning of next week.
The Provost Marshal General recommends
weekly registrations for
men becoming 21 since June f>,
so that the immediate deficiency can
. be in some manner made up.
r NTIRE BATTALION A
WIPED OUT BY OUR FIRE U
O
With the American Army on the
Aisne-Marne Front, Aug. G (By the
Associated Press) .-American machine
' gunners, protecting a location of the
esle, west of Fismes, wiped out an
entire hattallion of German infantry ^
i.ten and machine gunners today.
he Germans at this time were get':11g
into position to attack a group 1
if American bridge builders who were
approaching the locality.
Some bridge materials already had
L been moved near the south bank of
he Vesle and the Germans, appar- ?
ntly discovering this fac?, had sent
i battalion to hill position to pre- '3
vent the Americans from carrying l'
ut their plan. A detachment of 11
crack American machine gunners, P
however, previously had taken an do- U
; atod position commanding the loca
tion and opened lire when the Ger s<
.nans appeared. '
Observers reported that they did a
not see a single German get away '
from tin- leaden hail, and, according
o the last accounts, not even enemy d
stretcher bearers approached the C
cene. The Germans replied so fe< b- 'i
ly with their fire, because of the sur- '.\
i prise, that there were no American p
> casualties. li

TO WIPE OUT ILLITERACY
The Illiteracy Conimisison has issued
the following statement:
1. The Illiteracy commission of j
South Carolina was appointed, by the |
lovernor at the request of the State
federation of Women's Clubs.
II. Principles.
. .1. Stale Fride. The shame of bong
the most laggard of all the States
n literacy should sting the decent
self respect of every South Carolinian
into vigorous action.
2. The Future. The terrific test
.0 which our political fitness and in-,
dustrinl competence will be put in 1
-he fierce after-war strmwrlo domamltl I
niversu! education as a condition of
elf-prescrvation.
3. A V/ar-Monsure of tlje First
Magnitude. Since the success of the
war depends mainly on the wholehearted
devotion of the people, the
first duty of patriotism is to .see that
no citizen remain insulated from the
currents of the Nation's mind.
1. To save the world, the elTicieney
of rapacity must be over-r.iatchcd '
i>y 'in- <'iiieic<iey of democrat>e intelligence.
a. '1'e deny to any of our people
the c ha nee even to read the word of
'.nd i-> t> violate the very spirit of
Christianity.
G. It is pathetic and intolerable
that hundreds of worthy people cannot
read or write the letters between !
themselves and their boys in can p j [
and trench. ,
III. ibv Work of the Commission.
1. The Commission is to work under
lim leadership of the l)o-' I
partment of Kducution and as air: ii-j
ury t ? it.
'J. It purposes to do all in its pov.-j j
( r to eo-operate with, encourage, and 1
..id aii persons, organize.Tons, and !
other agencies that are stli for | ,
the eradication of illiteracy from the j
State.
3. It will endeavor:
'l o work for such legislation ns is
necessary for the success of the
cause; To use all legitimate means'
of prop ,grar.?ia and agitation; To j
become a center for gathering and
exchange of information and for cor- |
relation of all agencies in the Slate |
working toward the name ends To1 !
ssist, as far as possible, in actual ; {
, execution; To raise the money that !
may he necessary for the above nam-' I
, e<! en>ls. j
:
To meet the growing demand for ,
, Rod Cross and Y. M. C. A. workers
mi Kuropo the War department lias
, clecided to modify the rcguations ,
v.hich govern the granting of pass-.
, ports to the women reatives of men !
in ihi' United States service so that f
he s st'-rs of soldiers may he enrolled ,
foreig . service if certain condi-J
, . i< rs ;>r" r:g: ily observed.
The first of these is that any sister
to go across must be a duly accredited '
member of one of the reguar author,
ir.ed organization which .arc doing
work in F.urope. She must also be q
particularly qualified by training for
. the.position which she is to fill and, '

IS SKIN WHITENER
How to Make Creamy Beauty Lotion (1
For a Few Cent*.
The juice of two fresh lemons
strained into a bottle containing three
ounces of orchard white makes a
whole quarter pint of the most remarkable
lemon skin beautifier at
about the cost one must pay for a
small jar of the ordinary cold creams.
Care should be taken to strain the
lemon juice through a fine cloth so
no lenu>n pulp pets in, then this lotion
will keep fresh for months. Kve- ,.]
ry woman knows that lemon juice is lT]
used to bleach and remove such blemisho$
as freckles, sallowncss and tan p
and is the ideal skin softener, white- _
ner and beautifier. (
Just try it.. Get three ounces of (
orchard white at any drup store and
iwo irmons from the grocur and make
up a quarter pint of this sweetly fra- '
grant lemon lotion and massage it '
daily into the face, neck, arms and I
hands. Adv. 1. I
