... WHO Weeks, and was so weakening,
and ray health was awful.
My mother bought me a bottle o!
Cardui, and I began to improve after
taking the first bottle, so kept it up till 1
took three... I gained, and was well
«nd strong, and I owe it all to Cardui.
I am married now and have 3 children
.. Have never had to have a doctor for
iemald'tfoubfe, and just resort to Cardui
f iledtt i tonic. I am glad to testify to
wbat it has done for me, so as to help
ithers.” '

Next Monday evening at 8:30 there
will be held a deferred meeting of
the board of directors of the Cham-
ber of Commerce. The meeting will
convene in the mayor’s office in the
city hall, and all citizens of Weath-
erford interested in the growth of the
city are invited and urged to be on
hand at the hour mentioned.
In addition to the regular business
before the board of directors, the
meeting will take up a proposition
which lias been put in the hands of
the officers of the Chamber of Com-
merce for the development of an oil
refinery here to be worth $125,000.
The proposal comes from a represen-
tative of a large oil eoinpahy now
operating and having potential hoi
ings in the Ranger field. This looks
like an opportunity to secure for
Weatherford an industry which is
really worth while and no citizen
should lose the opportunity to be
present and help.

sonnel which was made up of groups
recruited under the auspices of al-
most forty leading universities and
colleges of the country. There were
sections from the University of Wash-
ington, University of California and
Leland Stanford, on the west; Uni-
versity of Maine and Harvard on the
east; University of -Chicago and Ham-
line on the north and the University
of Texas in the soutti. There were
college boys of all classes and de-
scriptions; the leading athletes in
their institutions side by side with
the scholars.
Camp Crane, named after one of
the former surgeon generals of the
United Stales army, was established
ai Allentown, in May, 1917, by Colo-
nel Elbert E. Persons, to meet the
j urgent needs of the French, then
|hard pressed at Verdun. It was an
j entirely new service for the United
I States army. There were no forms
j or precedents, simply the general out-
I line of the French service, as describ-
I ed by Marshal Joffre.
One hundred sectidfc* were to be
tiained in the driving of ambulances,
carrying of litters and first aid to
the wounded.
Two score colleges were combed
for the pick ot men and more than
4,500 were soon on hand.
Units of bacteriologists were re-
cruited from among the chemists in
camp. Hospital units of various kinds
came here for training prior to de-
parture abroad.
Today the camp is strictly medical
and men are in training for all bran-
ches in this service. There are labo-
ratory units, whose work wilt be de-
signed to prevent disease or combat
it should new problems arise; field
hospital units, evacuation hospital
unjts and organizations to conduct
base hospitals far behind the lines.
The men now are being secured prin-
cipally from the medical camps at
Fort Ogelthorpe ,Ga., and Fort Riley,
Kansas. Most of them are draft
troops although considerable numbers
are still enlisting for this work, in-
cluding former hospital internes, col-
lege men who have specialized in
chemistry, and medical students from
the universities.
An Italian contingent went to Eu-
rope under the command of Colonel
Persons, founder of the camp, who
recently was the guest of King Vic-
tor Emamnuel on the fighting front.
Since then Camp Crane has been
commanded by Lieutenant Richard
Slee, who during the Spanish-Ameri-
can war had made serums for use in
the United States army and who was
widely recognized as an expert in
sanitation.

Austin, Texas, Aug. 17.—“I am a
friend of the Kaiser to hell with
America.” This inscription, written
with a lead pencil, has been found by
one of the capltol watchmen on the
wall of the corridor of the third floor
of the building. Efforts are being
made tp ascertain the identity of the
author of the inscription.

Washington, Aug. 16.—Like many
another war episode, the telling of the
full story of the creation of the Amer-
ican army ambulance corps must wait
for 1 peafce. In eighty sections, the
corps is serving behind French, Eng-
lish and Belgian lines between Switz-
erland and the sea, while thirty sec-
tions more of it have been strung out
behind the Italian trenches.
A few additional units are complet-
ing training at Allentown, Pa., but
with their departure, according to
present army arrangements, the job
will be done. Future ambulance driv-
ers will be picked out in the prosaic
but_efficient routine of the draft can-
tonments, and the special service,
unique in romance and effectiveness,
will eventually vanish.
The service ‘came into being be-
cause of the necessity for lending im-
mediate aid in some auxiliary fashion
to the fighting allies, and because
there were already at work privately
raised and financed automobile am-
bulence units with American person-
nel, which it could absorb and en-
large. Likewise there was a rush of
volunteering, and an equal rush 6f
equipment offers, from schools and
colleges and places all over the Unit-
ed States. So the sections, each one
consisting of 45 enlisted men, 12 au-
tomobile ambulances, and a lieuten-
ant or captain commanding, were rap-
idly built up. Today there are be-
tween, 9,000 and 10,000 men serving
in thb capacity. While the idea did
not exactly suit previous army plans,
which call for combining ambulances
with hospitals, in unified service, it
met emergency needs, and was adop-
ted because It was already in opera-
tion and working well.

Washington, Aug. 17.—The 42nd
(Rainbow) division particularly dis-
tinguished itself in the fighting east
of Rheims on July 15-16 when the Ger-
man offensive was launched on both
sides of that city only to be stopped
and the Germans later driven out of
the whole A'sne-Marne pocket. A gen-
eral order issued by General Naulin,
commanding the 21st army corps,
to which the American division was
attached in the French fourth army
under General Gouraud, commends
me 42nd for “its valor, ardor and its
spirit,” in the course of the battle
when the fourth army broke the Ger-
man offensive.
The text of the order issued on July
20 when the 42nd division was leaving
to join the 1st American army corps
in the drive to the Vesle as made
public today by the war department
follows:
“At the moment when the 42nd di-
vision is on the point of leaving the
21st army corps, I desire to express
my keen satisfaction and my sincere
thanks for the services which it has
rendered under all conditions.
“By its valor, ardor and its spirit
it has very particularly distinguished
itself on July 15 and 16 in the course
of the great battle where the fourth
army broke the German offensive on
the Champagne front.
“I am proud to have had it under
my orders during this period, and my
prayers accompany it in the great
struggle-engaged in for the liberty of
the world.

By Associated Press.
Cleveland, O., Aug. 16.—A big mem-
bership drive has been started here
by the Stip Society, which stands for
“Save Till It Pinches.’ Members who
are being recruited in factories, stores
and homes, pledge themselves to
eliminate waste and extravagance, to
spread the doctrine of thrift and
economy, to discourage use of non-
essentials that demand transportation
facilities and to “save till it pinches
so that Berlin may be captured a
month sooner.”
If you sit in a cool draft when you
are heated and get a stiff neck or
