Browning, postmaster, will , make a personal appeal to merchants, bankers, factory managers and otner large Industrial interests to make early ami frequent mailings. Postmas ters in all the larger cities of the Unit ed States will make similar appeals. "Because of the mail congestion due to war time activities, the quick trans mission of letters and other packages through the mails will be better as ) sured by early and frequent mailings," said Postmaster Browning. "If the merchants, bankers and heads of other big firms will mail their letters twice instead of. once a day, they will receive better service and will reduce the pos sibility of delay in transmission by at least 100 per cent. I shall personally call upon the larger firms and request that they make it a point to sign their letters at noon and in the afternoon or at such other hours as will cause a more frequent mailing." The postal authorities already have written letters to commercial clubs, fraternal organizations, trades and la bor headquarters and other organiza tions, urging the adoption of a similar r system. The idea is merely to prevent I the congestion of mail matters" which tend to delay the quickest possible I transmission.

Barbour, of tho American Red Cross, and Ralph Preston, of the American Relief Clearing house, have been decorated with the Legion of Honor by the French government. VARIETY OF WEATHER 0016 THE PAST 24 HOURS Rain, hail and traces of snow; bliz zardy wintry winds and soft easy, zep hyrouB spring-time breezes I That was tho mixture of atmospher ic bonmots handed out by tho woather man for Ogden during tho last twenty four hours. The temperature rangod from tho balmy heights of 55 degrees down to points below froezing. It began raining early last evening and continued until about 10:30 this morning, touching off tho grand finalo with a rather sovero hail storm.

AMSTERDAM, March 8. In reply to congratulations from Philip Hoine ken, director of tho North Gorman Lloyd Steamship lino, Emperor Will iam has sent tho following telegram: "Tho German sword is our best pro tection. With God's holp it will also bring us peace In tho west and indeed, the peace which after much distress and many troubles, tho German people need for a happy future." The emperor detailed his gratitude at greater length in a message to tho vice-president of the relchstag, sav ing: "The complete victory fills mo with gratitude It permits us to live again one of those great moments in which wo can reverently admire God's hand in history. What turns events havo taken is by tho disposition of God. "Tho heroic deeds of our troops, the successes of our great generals, and the wonderful achievements of those at homo have their effects in moral forces and tho categorical imporatlve which has been inculcated In our peo ple in a hard school. They will also carry us through in a decisive and final battle to victory. "In the great tasks upon which tho conclusion of peace re-construction and tho healing of the wounds of war will set us, I desire my people to rely on tho historical experience that unity means strength. May our people faco tho new timo and its tasks with a strong sense of tho realities, with un bending faith in itself and its mission and with strong, patriotic and proud joy in the fatherland bound to mo "and my houso by old and proved bonds of mutual trust. "I do not doubt that a rich, strong and happy people will arise out of the storms and sacrifices of this time." WHEAT STANDARDS TO BE REVISED WASHINGTON, March 8. Tenta tive revised standards for wheat under the grain standards act were announc ed today by tho secretary of agricul ture. The standards aro less exacting, especially with reference to moisture, mixtures of wheat of different classes, inseparably foreign material and rye mixtures than aro the present .stand ards. Before final action is taken upon the standards five public hearings will bo held to afford tho grain trade op portunity to discuss tho proposed standards. The hearings will be held as follows: March 14, Philadelphia; March 16, Indianapolis; March 18, Kansas City, Mo.; March 18, Spokae; March 21, Minneapolis. Change in the former standards is largely due to war conditions which havo brought about fixed prices for wheat and substantial elimination of competition in its marketing. Milling and baking industries havo been put upon a new basis. "Under present ab normal conditions mixtures of differ ent classes' of wheat, admixtures of rye and other factors do not play so Important a part in the marketing of wheat as underx pre-war conditions. nn " DUBOIS OF IDAHO' ON ORDNANCE BOARD WASHINGTON, March 7.

Beatty, state health commissioner, as he launched, in co-operation with federal census bureau officials, a campaign for enforcement of tho law. Dr. Beatty Bald the government is particularly anxious that tho records shall bo kept correctly during the per iod of tho war. His plan of campaign is first to say that the filings be made and then to take drastic action against persons who do not show a desire to comply with the request.

R, Heywood, chairman of tho city exemption board today, "as this is the best opportunity many of them will havo of getting into the service. The men of that age can get into tho service and get out while they aro still young and they will yet havo tho benefits of that splendid ex perience. Young men of Ogden .ought not to allow such an opportunity to slip by, as there is small prospect of another such offer during this war." The enlistment of men of these ages in tils unit, tho Utah light field artil lory, will place young men from this city in tho unit where there are more Ogden boys, probably, than anywhere else In the army. Company B of the l-15th Is essentially an Ogden organi zation and young fellows responding to this call will probably bo associated with their old friends, the judge said. oo THREE BOOTLEGGERS SHE CAUGHT BY THE POLICE Within tho last twenty-four hours, police officers have caught three al leged bootleggers and confiscated a to tal of 78 pints of liquor monetary value, retail bootlegging price $273. Tho contraband goods wero taken from Luke Wheat, darky, Edward Martin and F. W. Hallcy. Wheat's per son yielded 30 pints; Hallcy contribut ed 18 pints to the general total; and Martin 30 pints.

The Panlages bill at the Lyceum this week is is well, It is an aver age, probably a little above the aver age vaudeville show. You will like it if your digestion is right; if not, you may like it anyway. Tho paid admissions last night gave the most vigorous approval to the ef forts of Finley & Hill, presenting "Vodvll a la Mode" and, as is custo mary, tho paid admissions were right. The number was not scintillatingly lu minous but it was refreshingly new, and therefore pleased. Paid admissions are not especially looking for any thing heavy in vaudeville they only want something out of the ordinary and Finloy & Hill gave it to themi They sang new gingery songs; had a line of'talk that was pleasing; and did some acting a la amusement sec tion of tho old time debating societies and passed on for tho next number. The next number also happened to be bell ringer in the genius of Jan Rubina, violinists, marked on tho pro gram as "the wonderful Swedish vio linist," and ho probably is. His work was about the same as other vaude ville violinists more than ordinarily good. It is suggested that his man ager advise him that it is unnecessary to shy at barbershops any longer merely becauso he Is a good fiddler tho time has passed when harmonies and long hairs go together. That is only an interpolation but it is be lieved a, tonsorialist would help the act George Primrose, the Tim Murphy of minstrelsy, of course was interest ing.. George Primrose has been Inter esting to millions for the last couple of generations. The littlo hop-step-and-jump 4hat he did last nlghP, how over, should not be mistaken by the youth- who might have been in the audience as entirely representative of George Primrose. He did that just to let tho spectators see him he is in semi -retirement Georgo Primrose is always welcome to any American theater attendance he has made more people happy than 90 per cent of the rest of actordom combined and reck oned in laughs he has Mark Twain, Georgo Ado and BUI Nye all backed off- the boards for totals.

It would be hard to find a more win some, charming or mlschovious bar barian than Vivian Martin, who Is ap pearing now at the Alhambra theater in "A Fair Barbarian." She is as charming as she is petite and sprightly but her "barbarism" was just a little too much for even the gallant but world weary captain who thought he would marry her. It took an Ameri can to appreciate Octavia and he didn't oven hesitate to get his face all muddled up in kissing her. Who would at least If he were an American? The English seem to stop on tho fun niest conventionalities and a little mud doesn't spoil a real kiss. Most everyone knows the story of the "Fair Barbarian," how an Ameri can girl goes from Bloody Gulch, Ne vada, to England and throws conster nation into the precise Cranfordlan so ciety which is the habitat of her aunt But most everyone ought to see Viv ian Martin act this little story to really appreciate it Even she could not dent the English society in which she found herself however, or make it think of her any thing except that she was a barbarian. So she gave up and came back to Am erica where a man can laugh if he wants to. It is an excellent bill and also has Fred Opper's animated cartoons. oo GOVERNOR DEPLORES IMMIGRATION FAULTS SALT LAKE, March 8. Governor Bamberger was the guest of honor yesterday at the regular weekly luncheon of the Lumbermen's associa tion. In a brief address, he spoke of the laxity of the immigration laws, permitting aliens to enter the United States wii no qualifications whatever to become citizens and exacting no pledge that they will be loyal to the country which has adopted them. He spoke of the many abuses of the privi lege of citizenship by many foreign born, and deplored the fact that more strenuous laws are not in effect to jwinish thpse who prove themselves disloyal to tho flag. The governor directed attention to Jho many outrages perpetrated by members of the Industrial Workers of the World, and ho declared no punish ment could be too harsh for men who deliberately destroy industries or enter into conspiracies to hinder the pur poses of the government at the pres ent time. He cautioned the lumber men ever to be on the alert for men who are members of organized effort to destroy forests and lumber mills and who willfully cripple the industry by acts of sabotage. . on REAL ESTATE NOTE.

TIM B PREVIOUS Marital relations in 1917 wore evi dently governed by a more favorable star than in 1916, according to Clerk Wllford O. Young at the court house, ' who has compiled a record of tho two years. He says that there were 135 j divorces in 1917, while there were 144 in 1916, a decrease of nine divorces or an increase of nine weddings, which ever way one cares to view it. Tlio critical position of America in enter ing the war in 1917 is also given some . credit for the decrease, as people are ; thought to have got something real to . I think about and consequently havo M forgotten their domestic worries. However, here's the figures: Divorces In 1916: January, 13; Feb ruary, 13; March, 9; April, 12; May, 6; June, 13; July, 8; August, 16; Sep tember, 13; October, 14; November, 9; and December, 9. Total, 144. ; Divorces for 1917: January, 14; February, 12; March, 10; April, 12; !, May, 8; June, 10; July, 16; August Hi J September, 11; October, 13; Novcni ber, 11, and December, 7.

ARE MORE MOPEFUl ; PARIS, Jan. 31. (Mail). French economists studying how the nation may raise the revenue necessary t d cany its debt burden and meet cur- J rent expenses on the basis of a budget of 17,000,000,000 francs annually, l the end of this year, have arrived at an estimate of 40,000.000,000 francs as ; -tho net annual revenue of the French I peoplo in 1914. Economists, who were f ' frightened at the end of the first year . . -of the war by the growing war debt, appear now to consider the solution ot ; the problem as less difficult than they had dared to hope, though there is still an uncertain element in their cai- culations arising from the effect the i war will have had upon the producing capacity of tho country. i The Famous In a Comedy Drama Worth While IVpw If ' Lionel Barrymore "THEMILLIONAIRE'S DOUBLE" rX-r fl
