Call for Reconstruction
; Of Public Health Service
'. When the operation of the draft
law revealed the fact that a distress
ingly large percentage of the young
men of America was physically un
fit for military service, America
;woke up with a start from her com
placent self-satisfaction. What is
the matter? Are we a decadent na
tion and are we deteriorating phy
sically? ' American boys who went
overseas surely proved their metal,
but the fact remains that there has
been something wrong with the old
system of body, care and health
building. Defective eyes, weak hearts
and a host of other physical imper
fections surely lends force .to the
statement of the drugless physicians
that the old school of medicine ha
not justified its claim of efficiency
and superiority. When one realizes
that all public health work, school
inspection and the like has been
monopolized by medical doctors the
jindictment is plain,
i Dr. Lee W. Edwards says one of
i the most important things to be ac
. complished in the reconstruction
period is to take the medical profes-
. ciAti and nlar it in th lianrla rtf
isanitary engineers, who will put the
'emphasis on sanitation and hygiene,
leaving the matter of treatment to
ithe free choice of the patient who
certainly should have sorhe right in
the matter. The chiropractors are
willing to risk the judgment cf the
American public when it comes to
choosing between the changing the
ory of medical practice and the sim
ple mechanically exact theory of
chiropractic. The modern chiroprac
tor does not need to argue the pos
sibility of spinal subluxation cutting
off life power to the various parts
,of the body. The impartial scientific
X-Ray has settled that mooted ques
tion. -The X-Ray locates the trouble
and the chiropractor removes it.
Fly Paper in Stock.
A man who seemed to have hazy
ideas, of what he wanted entered a
shop. He looked at playing cards
and he looked at pencils. He in
quired the price of this magazine and
that, and examined the postcards
and the books.
i The young woman who was in
charge of thr counter became rather
wearied answering questions without
making a sale. At last the prospec
tive customer asked:
"Have you any flypaper?"
' ' "Yes, sir," was the prompt reply.

Showing Herself.
At a Wshington rtception a lady
said to Senator Nelson in a shocked
voice:
girl. I never saw such a decollete
blouse, such a short skirt and such
transparent stockings,' I'm aston
ished, for I always thought her a
yery quiet creature."
if- "Perhaps," laughed Senator Nel
son, "she's the sort that believes in
the old saying that young girls
should be seen and not heard."

Attempt to Work Get-Rich-
Quick Scheme at Capital
Nebraska Girls in Washington Discover Scheme
Which Rivals Famous Wallingford Stories; Rep
resentative Reavis Turns Evidence Over to Postal
Authorities for Investigation.
. Washington Bureau Omaha Bee.
Washington, April 19. What
looks like a well developed case of
Get-Rich-Quick Wallingford was
called to the attention of Congress
man Reavis this week, and after full
consideration the congressman
turned the case over to the Postof
fice department for investigation.
During the past winter the girl
workers from Nebraska, to assist in
entertaining the soldiers from the
home state who happened to be lo
cated in or about the national capi
tal, organized "The Ak-Sar-Ben"
club, of which Miss Wetherald of
Lincoln is president and Miss
Hazel Norris, daughter of Senator
Norris, secretary. The club has been
giving a series of monthly dances
at the Wilson Normal Community
center, and their social affairs have
attracted a great number of the
soldier boys. The expenses for the
entertainments have been borne
by the girls themselves, in some
cases real sacrifices having been
made by the members of the club.
Receives Letter.
Last week one of the soldier boys
received a letter from a man who
had attended one of the dances and
who persuaded the president to give
him a list of the Nebraska boys lo
cated hereabouts. The letter follows,
the name of the writer being with
held until the Postoffice department
makes its report on the alleged
fraudulant use of the mails to ex
ploit an organization that has no
existence:
- "Upon receipt of $3.30 we prom
ise to notify you of the dance and
reception given the first Saturday
in each month by the Ak-Sar-Ben
club under Mrs. Congressman
Norris; to furnish upon request
lists of all Nebraskans, 450, in
Washington; to promote social
and theatrical parties for Nebras
kans, such as the Belasco theater
dance; and aid in any manner that
a secretary might who is a mem
ber of- the George Washington
law university, and who is from
Omaha.
"Have an office at 102 Continen
tal Trust building, where appoint
ments can be made by that power
ful agency, the mails, for obtain
ing Nebraska stuff. General Persh
ing is a graduate of the Univer
sity of Nebraska, '93, law college,

"We expect to pay Caesar what

lowing federal revenue act of
1918:
"Section 819. That from and

levied, assessed and collected and
paid in lieu of the taxes imposed

after such date as dues or member

lect the amount of the tax im
posed by section 800 from the per
son so admitted.
"Beg of you to buy this bond of

Reavis Investigates.
Miss Wetherald, greatly exercised
over the "holdup" that was being at
tempted, at once called Representa
tive Reavis' attention to what has
every appearance of being a neat
piece of extortion, in view of the
fact that the "league" SRoken of has
no existence whatsoever and the
"secretary" being a self-appointed
officer to receive money.
Reavis wrote to the writer of the
letter and demanded that he bring
to the congressman's office assur
ances that all moneys collected had
been returned, otherwise he would
be compelled to put the matter in
the hands of those who are sug
gested by the character of the cor
respondence, and the writer of the
letter disavowed having made a
"touch" whatever, but Mr. Reavis.
in view of the sacrifices made bv
the Nebraska girls to give the Ne
braska boys wholesome social even
ings, reminiscent of home, turne.l
the correspondence over to the Post
office department for thorough in
vestigation. Mrs. Norris and Mrs.
Reavis have acted as chaperones at
all these social affairs and are as
greatly put out as are the girls of
the Ak-Sar-Ben club.

YANK DIVISION
HEARS ADDRESS
BY NAVAL HEAD
Secretary Daniels Tells Men
of Second Division He
Hopes to See Army
Back Home Soon.
Coblenz. April 19. (By The Asso
ciated Press.) Secretary of the
Navy Josephus Daniels, speaking to
the men of the Second division of
the American army of occupation,
today told his audience that he
hoped the army would be taken
home as soon as possible.
"As captain of the ferry boats
which brought the American army
to Europe," he said, "I wish to say
that I have under my command
70,000 American boys who also are
clamoring to return to their homes.
I have told those sailor boys they
would get home but that first they
must help get back to the United
States the boys who fought in
France and Belgium."
Want to Come Home.
Mr. Daniels contrasted today's
assemblage with that of the Ger
mans who stood on the same ground
in 1914 before beginning the war.
"Their chiefs," he said, "had
visions of conquering" the world, but
America entered the war without
desire for territorial gains."
The secretary's reference to the
soldiers' return home was answered
with cheers and shouts of "how
soon," were heard. When asked
for the dates when the men would
be taken back to America, the
secretary smiled but did not answer.
Confer War Crosses.
This morning during the review
of the division the Belgian Order of
the crown was conferred on Capt
Gaines Mosely and the order of
Leopold on Capt. Robert Balke.
Both are officers in the marine
corps. Thirjty-three distinguished
service crosses and 65 French war
crosses were presented officers and
men of the division.
On the reviewing stand with Sec
retary Daniels were Mrs. Daniels,
Maj. Gen. Joseph T. Dickman, com
mander of the Third armv: Mai
Gen. John A. Lejeune, commander
of the Second division; Brig. Gen.
John L. Hines, commander of the
Third corps, and naval and army of
ficers who are accompanying the
secretary on his trip.
Following the review. Secretary
and Mrs. Daniels were given a ride
across the fields to the speakers'
stand on a caterpillar tractor.
Mr. Daniels and his party will be
guests of General Mangin, com
mander of the French army of occu
pation at Mayence, today.
