Describes Pitiful
Scenes in France
"Modern Florence Nightingale" Tells
of Conditions Among Men Blind-
ed by War
New Haven, Conn., May 29.-From
the Yale News comes an article by
Miss Mable Davison telling of the
conditions in France today. Miss Dav-
ison who is known throughout the
hospitals of France as the "Modern
Florence Nightingale", stressed the
conditions among the men blinded in
the war.
According to Miss Davison there is
an utter lack of hope in the hearts of
the blind men when they realize for
the first time that their sight has beenj
taken from them. It is the duty of
those who can see to lend their eyes
to the less fortunate ones. This is
done by acquainting the men with the
feeling of certain familiar objects. The
education to the sense of touch is
the most important one and for this
reason the teaching of pottery making
is of so much value. The ability to
create with the hands something con-
crete means a return of confidence in
their independence and facility.
Miss Davison feels that it is the
duty of the women of the country to
marry these men and take care of
them. In this lies the only hope for the
blind men of any country.
"So life holds future possibilities for
these men," said Miss Davison, "and the
work of re-establishing them in some
useful career, and helping them keep
their little families is one of the first,
steps in the rebuilding of France. The
least that America can do is to make,
this possible for those who have stood
in the trenches."

$2,5QO,000 Cut Is Made in Appropria-
tions Approved by the
House
Washington, May 29.-After knock-
ing off an appropriation of $2,500,000
of the appropriations approved by the
house, the senate agricultural commit-
tee today reported the food products
bill, passed by the house yesterday,
and recommended that it be substi-
tuted for the senate bill. This was
done in order to hasten the passage
of the measure in the upper branch.
The appropriation of $5,778,000 by
the house to buy seeds for distribution
to farmers at cost was cut to $2,500,-
000 by the senate committee. This
section was later adopted by the sen-
ate as a whole.
The clause authorizing the com-
mandeering of all seeds necessary, was
also eliminated from the house meas-
ure.
The senate increased from $547,000
to $1,200,000 the appropriation for con-
ducting a food survey throughout' the
nation.
The Poindexter amendment to pro-
hibit the hoarding of food stuffs in or-
der to create a shortage or enhance'
prices was added to the house bill by
the senate committee, after being
amended so as to exclude farmers and.
other producers.

"STAY IN SCHOOL IF UNDER
AGE," SAYS SENATOR REED
New Haven, Conn., May 29.-"The
best thing that a young man under age
can do now is to remain in college and
take the military training there," said
Senator Reed of Missouri to a repre-
sentative of the Yale News recently.
"I should not advise anyone to enlist
before he is needed, for we must not
use up all of our strength at once-if
this is exhausted we should have lit-
tle to fall back on," stated Senator
Reed. "I know of no more beneficial
experience to a college man than a
good hard summer's work on a farm,
and especially the big wheat ranches
of the West."

PRESCRIBE UNIFORM
FOR HOME (GUARDS
Rifles Are Not Available at Present;
Are Being Held in Case of
Emergency
Lansing, May 29.-A uniform which
is distinctive and military has been
prescribed for the Michigan state
troops, home guard department. It
does not conflict with the provisions
of the law against unauthorized use
of the uniform of the army. It con-
sists of a gray campaign hat, an olive
drab cotton blouse, olive drab cotton
riding breeches, laced at the knee,
canvas leggins and russet army shoes.
All buttons will be dull bronze and
will bear the seal of the state.
The orders have been issued for the
above from the office of the com-
mander of the home guard, who also
announces that rifles are not available
at the present. He has appealed to
the government for Krag rifles and
has been refused, as the Krags are
held for an emergency. It is prom-
ised that full information will be sent
home guard companies of legislation
pending in congress to equip com-
panies with rifles.
Home guardsmen are advised to
borrow sporting rifles or to have the
communities buy them. They are
warned not to get high power rifles,
which are dangerous for city use be-
cause of the great velocity of the am-
munition. "Get rifles using lead bul-
lets with black powder," advises the
circular.
The names of Michigan houses sup-
plying uniformsi and shoes are given
in the circular. A Knumber of the home
guard companies are preparing to buy
uniforms, arms and equipment.

Benny Leonard
By H. C. Hamilton
(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
New York, May 29.- Lightweight
champion Benny Leonard and feather-
weight champion Johnny Kilbane are
going to find out which one of them is
champion of champions.
They are going to meet within a
very short time, and the bout will un-
doubtedly be under the direction of
the famous Cleveland referee and pro-
moter, Matt Hinkel. Arrangements for
the bout were practically agreed tc
today when Dunn, manager of Kilbane,
and Billy Gibson, manager of Leonard,
and Hinkel met here.
Hinkel threatens to retire from the
promoting game when he has landed
the greatest of all present day match-
es. Just this bout, he promised and
he will quit.
At the Manhattan Athletic club,
where Freddie Welch lost his title
last night, it was stated today that the
receipts were $13,149. Of this Leon-
ard was given $4,000 and Welch ap-
propriated $5,000.
Leonard spent nearly all day with
his mother today. She was the first
person away from the ringside to hear
of his victory over Welch. The new
champion came down town this aft-
ernoon.

AT THE MAJESTIC
Winston Churchill's great novel,
"The Crisis," now being run in a
photo-play at the Majestic has two
prominent characterizations which
impress all who have seen the pro-
duction. George Fawcett, who takes
the role of Judge Silas Whipple, and
Matt B. Snyder, who impersonates Col-
onel Carvel, stand out pre-eminently
in this picture of the great American
crisis. Tonight will be th last time
this film will be shown in Ann Arbor.
AT THE MAJESTIC
"Enlighten Thy Daughter," the great
seven-reel cinema drama which comes
to the Majestic tomorrow f r a three
days' run, presents the vital facts of
life in a manner which carries con-
viction to the heart of everyone. The
plot shows a contrast between two
ways of bringing up young girls in
present-day life, one girl being allow-
ed to grow up in ignorance which fin-
ally results in her ruin and death,
and her cousin being shielded from
danger by the wisdom of a watchful
mother. The well balanced cast com-
posed of Frank Sheridan, James Mor-
rison, Zena Keefe, Arthur Donaldson,
Rubye de Remer, Katharine Iaelred
and others brings out the lesson so
strikingly that it cannot fail to be of
value to everyone who sees it. It was
written and directed by Ivan Abram-
son.
