POLISH UPRISING
IN UPPER SILESIA
League Troop Prepare Cam-
paign Against Poles on
Two Fronts.
Berlin.—The league of nations army
Which was surprised everywhere by
the Polish uprising in Upper Silesia,
being dispersed and defeated in fight-
ing in and around many towns, is now
concentrating preparatory to launching
a double attack against the insurgents.

calls for a campaign on two fronts.
On the first front the interallied army
will operate between Rosenberg and

the Poles into Poland and of prevent-
ing the entry of the regular Polish
army. On the second it will operate
between Pless and Ratibor, marching

graphed against accepting the Ger-
mans, but General Martino, „jof the
Italian army, who is acting comman-
der in General Lerond’s absence, de-
cided to retain the Germans on ac-
count of the seriousness of the situa-
tion.

German soldiers are fighting shoulder
to shoulder as they would have done
during the great war had Italy remain-
ed in the triple alliance.

he stressed the necessity for them to
get their education in Texas. He de-
clared that the comradeship and friend-
ships made in college are an integral
part of education. The governor de-
clared there is no excuse o.r reason for
Texas youths to leave their state, as

standing to educate them at home.

ed this season.

ing week due to good export demand,

LEGISLATURE WILL
BE CALLED JULY 11
Governor Neff Says He Has in
Mind to Call Session on
That Date.
Austin, Tex.—Governor Neff Wed-
nesday announced that it his “pres-
ent thought to reconvene the legisla-
ture on Monday, July 11,’’ in special
session. He said:
“I have reached the conclusion that
about July 11 will perhaps suit the con-
venience of a greater number of the
legislators than any other date,” said
the governor. The statement is ad-
dressed to the members of the legisla-
ture, and is as follows:
“This is not an authentic proclama-
tion for the convening of the legisla-
ture, but feeling that the members
should be advised of the probable date
of the special session, in order that
they may arrange their business af-
fairs in accordance therewith, I de-
sife to say that my present thought is
to reconvene the legislature on Mon-
day, the eleventh of July.
“There are reasons why the session
should be earlier and there are rea-
son's why it should be later than the
date suggested. Considering the mat-
ter, however, from all angles, I have
reached the conclusion that about Jhly
11 will perhaps suit the convenience
of a greater number of the legislators
than any other date.
“I make this announcement to you
through the press in order that all in-
terested parties may make their plans
accordingly.”
LIST OF DRAFT EVADERS
NEARLY READY TO PUBLISH
Washington.—A final appeal to for-
mer service men to assure themselves
that their names were not'carried on
the army’s life of draft evaders and
deserters to be made public this week
has been issued by the war depart-
ment.
“Men who are not actually desert-
ers, but who believe themselves
charged with desertion upon the rec-
ords,” the appeal said, “should com-
municate immediately with this office
(the adjutant general), setting forth
all the facts in their cases. Those in
doubt of their status should follow the
same course. There is still opportu-
nity to escape the odium that will at-
tend the publication of the names if
action is taken promptly.”
The final ,,lists of deserters were
checked against the army, navy and
marine corps records and by 3374
local draft boards out of 4251. Com-
pleted lists are now going out daily to
the various corps area commanders
for publication.

citizenship. Information has been re-
ceived that a joint resolution to permit
them to remain here has been ap-
proved by the senate committee.
One of the pleas advanced in their
behalf is made by General Pershing
and army officers here have also ask-
ed that they be permitted to remain
as a reward for their efficient work in
camps during the war when labor was
scarce.
Cherokee Intervention Refused.
Washington.—The supreme court re-
fused Monday to permit John M. Tay-
lor, as representative of the eastern
emigrant Cherokees, to intervene in
the Red River oil land case. Taylor
claimed that large tracts of the ter-
ritory in dispute was the property of
his clients by reason of the 14,000,000-
acre grant made by President Van
Buren.
Will Pay Warrants Promptly.
Austin, Tex.—State Treasurer John
W. Baker announced Saturday that
hereafter all state warrants sent di-

rants except for collection.

WHY MRS. LOT LOOKED BACK PLEA FOR PERSONAL PRONOUN
Reason Explained, but Today It Is the
Man Who Usually Does
the Turning.
The mystery of why Lot’s wife
turned around, womanlike, after being
warned specifically not to, was ex-
plained by Alexander Black, novelist,
at a dinner of the Society of Arts and
Science, New York.
Mr. Black said Mrs. Lot merely
wanted to see if she was being fol-
lowed by a man.
The subject of profound debate was
“Marriage Is a Success. Yes? No?”
It was discussed with lights turned
low under red shades.
Mr. Black said it is now the1'man
who does the turning around and look-
ing back, “usually slightly down.
“Over their faces pome curiously
mingled expressions of bewilderment
and amazement.
“I have seen them turned into cyn-
ics or into poets. I have seen them
turned from their direction and struck
by automobiles.”
Naming the Birds.
Orville Wright said at a Dayton
banquet:
“Flying ‘becomes more popular
every day among our wealthy young
men. Certain newspaper humorists,
in fact, are trying to invent a suitable
name for the new fad.
“I have seen it called ‘flyphoid
fever,’ ‘inflewenza,’ and ‘aerosipelas,’
but my own suggestion would be
‘skyatica.’ ”
Argument of Humane Education So-
ciety Relating to School Chil-
dren and Animals.
The Humane Education society of
Pennsylvania is seeking to have the-
school children taught to speak of ani-
mals with personal instead of imper-
sonal pronouns. The society fears-
that if children say “it” and “which”
and “that” for their ' pets they wll
regard them as they do the lifeless-
train of cars, the soulless box of
blocks, the witless ball or drum or
sailboat. They will regard a tender
little animal as though “it” were-
stuffed with invulnerable leather or
sawdust; they will drag “it” about
and bully-rag and maul “it” as though-
“it” had no feeliAgs; they will de-
grade the animate creature to the
level of the mere automaton started
with a key and active only till the-
cogs run down.—Phladelphia Ledger.
The Advantage.
“Medicine,” said the professor, “te

heal the sick, we pore weary houra

ity, we—”
“Yeah,” said the student, “but what
I like about it is that we write all1
our prescriptions in Latin and can get
away with such a lot of bunk.”—Rich-
mond Times-Dispatch.
