MANSFIELD. | FRANCE PREPARES 10 GREET PILGRIMS I Tender Welcome Planned for American Mothers Who Visit Graves. By the Associated Press | PARIS, April 1.—France has prepared | a tender welcome for the great pilgrim- | age of American Gold Star Mothers who | this Summer will visit the graves of | thelr slain and the battlefields over { which they fought. ! French government co-operation was | ! gladly offered, and many French wom- | | en’s organizations have joined with the | | United States Quartermaster’s Depart- | | ment, which has charge of the pilgrim- ! age, in completing plans for the com- fort of the women France regards as| distinguished guests. | In Paris, first point of visit for most of the mothers, two of the most luxuri- ous hotels have been reserved. In three of the six American cemeteries In France, Romagnes, Fere-en-Tardenois and St. Mihiel, stopping places have {been erected and arrangements made { for tea and other refreshments. French organizations have undertaken to deco- I rate the graves with fresh flowers and | | French and American flags. | Army Men in Charge, Col. Richard T. Ellis, chief of the American graves' registration service in | | Europe, has been placed in complete | charge of the pilgrimage, and will be assisted by 25 Regular Army officers. They will meet the mothers at the French ports and be with them con- stantly during their tours, The most competent guides have been provided and thoroughly trained in their duties, Luxurious motor coaches have been engaged for the entire tour. Special arrangements have been made for the comfort of colored mothers and Mrs. Ellis, wife of the colonel, will take them under her own charge. It 1s expected here that about 6,000 women will make the trip from America. They will arrive in parties of 300 and upon arrival in Paris be again divided into groups of 25 for the visit to the graves and the tours of the battle- fields. | Il First Party in May. Mothers who will visit the American Cemetery in Belgium will first come to Paris. Thoge bound for Brookfield Cemetery in England will land directly in_London. The first party, of Nebraska mothers, is expected to land at Cherbourg in May. Other parties will come at inter- vals until the end of August.

Assalling the prohibition poll being | conducted by the Literary Digest, Sen- ator Jones, Republican of Washington, | today In the Senate advised prohlhl-‘ tionists to refrain from participation in it. | The Senator read to the Senate let- | ters received from women in his State asserting that secret ballots were being | sent principally to men and to wets. “My perscnal judgment,” Jones con- cluded, “is that prohibition has nothing to gain and everything to lose by this poll and that those opposed to pro- hibition have everything to gain and nothing to lose by it and, therefore, I think it will be wise for those believing | in prohibition to take no part in it.” Senator Dill, Democrat, of Washing- ton joined in the discussion, asserting that he had received letters from wom- en in his State also complaining that they had not received ballots. Senator Jones said he had assumed that the “poll is being made in perfect | good faith and without bias or prejudice, but I have received letters which ind: cate differently.” Senator Dill said he had referred the letters to the editor of the Literary Di- gest, and had been informed that the | names for ballots were obtained in the same manner as the presidential polls were conducted.

USED IN CAPITAL Prof. Smith Makes State- ment in Addregs on Elec- tricity at Cosmos Club. One phase of development in the field of electrical engineering had its first practical application in the vicin- | ity of Washington, it was disclosed last night by Prof. Harold B. Smith, presi- dent of the American §nstitute of Elec- trical Engineering. ring an illus- trated lecture on high voltage prob- lems encountered in his more than 30 years' study of dielectrics he pointed out that the first insulator was used on a rallroad between Washington and Baltimore. Invented by the founder of Cornell University, the insulator was a make- shift device, strapgely dissimilar to the compact insulators of today that have been developed to offer protection against electrical force in thousands of amperes. Prof. 8mith, who is head of the en- gineering department at Worcester Polytechnic Institute and consulting engineer for the Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Co., addressed the Washington branch of the institute of the Catholic University and the Alumni Association of Worcester in the -Cos- mos Club. The lecture was his seven- tieth since last August to various branches of the institute. Speaking in reminiscent vein, Prof Smith recalled that it was Samuel Lang- ley’s successful experiments in the field of acronautics that diverted his atten- tion from that field to dielectrics, which is the study of substances that transmit electrical forces or effects by induction rather than by conduction. In 1906 he built a 120,000-volt trans- former in a single unit, and in 1909 directed his studles to oil as an insula- tor, a study that led to amusing as well as perplexing results. Thinking he had perfected a device that would provide insulation without having to increase the amount of oil beyond a fixed ratio, Prof. Smith applied for a patent in 1909. But when it was issued to him in 1911 he was thoroughly disgusted with the results, he said. Since then he has continued his studies in that direction. Noted Novelist in Hospital.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark., April 1. —The Arkansas Game and PFish Commission said today that it had received reports that “ex- tradition proceedings” might be instituted to bring back to Ar- killer named “Two ‘Toes.” “Two Toes,” king of Arkansas timber wolves and invader of many a herd of sheep, recently was_captured and incarcerated in the Memphis, Tenn., Zoo. The commission said that several Arkansans, believing the State should not suffer even a cham- pion wolf to be held in captivity in another State without a vig- orous protest, planned to take steps to have “Two Toes” extra- dited from Tennessee to the LlM.Ike Rock Zoo in the State Fair Park. C. F. Briggs, assistant director of predatory animal control for the Arkansas and Oklahoma dis- 4rict, said the wolf was removed from the State without approval of Federal authorities in charge of such matters.

Now that Spring and warm weather are on the way, there is renewed agi- tation among the man folks against the wearing of 8 or 10 pounds of wool cloth- ing in sweltering weather. There are days in our temperate zone Summers that are as hot, humid and de-energi ing as the tropics, yet because of con- vention the male population must con- tinue to carry around pounds of excess baggage.
