DETERMINE NEEDS OF YEAR
v Conferences between draft officials
and representatives of the general
staff We! been held in' the last few
days to determine just how many men
will be needed this year as a result
of change in plans and to determine
when they will be needed.
i There sxi now almost 1.000.000 men
in the training camps in "the United
Mates, amiut was the original plan
to send approximately 800,000 of these
to France thisVyear, replacing them
as they left week by week with in
crements of newly drafted men, equal
to the number of 'froops .taken away
irpm mei camps.
Even this schedule, calling for the
sending of something like.66,000 men
a-month to the front, was in exces!
vof what ,' the military authorities
thought could be sent to France with
out a radical improvement in the ship
ping situation.
200,000 Per Month. .
Under'the new plan of speeding up
. it. is understood, that a major part of
the l.QpOyOOO men in this country will
.leave the country by August 1, mak
'ing it necessary to , send Something
like 200,000 men a month or more if
the schedule is to be carried out.
This will make necessary the radical
change in plans for drafting men this
i year, which the' provost marshal gen
eral's department is now considering,
the object is to keep the army camps,
accommodating about 1,2QO,000 men,
as full as possible, and to that end it
mav be necessary,- to send approxi
mately 800ff00 drafted men to camp
by August 1.
This; will mean an average of 200,-

since the present clan calls for a
much less number, the provost mar

,-. Washington, April 3. America can
become a ''composite and .purposeful
nation and impose no authority other
than the compelling influence '.of af-
ifection, sympathy,uuderstandiag and
education, Secretary Lane declared
today- in aa address, which sounded
the keynote -of a conference called
to plan the, Americanization of manj
millions of foreign born
The secretary spoke to an assem
blage of staf; governors, chairmen of
state defense councils, heads of civk
organizations, industrial leaders and
business msrt; gathered at tho invita
tion of the Department hi Interior. ,
A federal legislative program which
calls foi an appropriation to the
bureau of education is to be fully-considered
and Americanization deall
with as. a war measure, toounterajjt
the anti-Ameiican propaganda among
aliens. v
A Great Experiment.
"We are trying a great experiment
in the United Mates, he asserted.
"Can we. gather together from, the
ends of, The earth people of different
races, creed?, conditions ndv aspira
tions, who an be merged into oner
If we cannot (do this we will fail. If
we do '.this we vll produce the great
est of all"nations tmd a new race that
will long lioid a compelling place in
the world. . 1 i
"There is n such .. thing as an
Amefcan race,' excepting the Indian.
Wet are fashioning a new people". In
this sense we are all internationalists
"We have a great body cf our own
'people, -5,500,000, who cannot read or
write the languagev of this country,
said Secretary Lane.. "That language
is English.- And these are not aH of
foreign birth. . A million and a half
are native horn. .'. .
"V are drafting into our army men
who canntft understand "The ; orders
thjt are givin them to read. Our
man power is deficient because oflr
education is deficient." ,
In-f hi pica . for the education of
aliens and American, illiterates alike,
Secretary jarie alluded ' to the
crumpling of Russia." x

Cocoahut Oil Fine
- For Washing Hair
If you want to keep your hair In
good condition, be careful what you
wash i$ with. v -
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsified
cocoanut oil (which is pure and en
tirely gfeaseless), lisTnuchJ better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use for shampoo-
ping, as this can't possibly injure the
hair. . '
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two tea-
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and
excessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves it fine and
silky-j bright, fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. It is very
cheap, and a few ounces-is enough to
last everyone, in the family ior
months. Advertisement.-

' ' High Lights on Plaster Job
This is not a photograph taken from an aeroplane. ' It is a picture of
the plastering that is being' put on at the annex ol the county hospital. It
shows the metal lath sticking out and looks like a skimmer perforated with
holes ranging in size from a dime to a quarter. The specifications for the
contract call for plastering put on in a thorough and workman-like manner.

The addition to the hosoital. which is intended to relieve the overcrowd.
ing in the basement, provides for a""cme-story frame and a stucco building,
42x168 feet. The contract is let to Moore Brothers, under' plans and speci
fications drawn by Architect J. M. Nachtigall. The first contract calls for
something over $10,000 and several thousand dqllars more will be necessary
to complete the building for occupancy. s
On the plastering the only provision in the specifications calls for -three
coats of plaster to be do,ne "in" a thorough andworkmanlike manner."
It is the first coat which is already on and which soon will be covered
up, when the condvcoat is put on previous to the finishing coat. This
plastering is n the interior walls. ,
The outside walls are to be o stucco board, covered with two coats Qf
cement, the thickness of the cement-plastering being specified as five-eighths
of an inch thick for the first and one-fourth of an incbfor the second. The
outside stucco work, however, -has not yet begun. '
