it is more convenient TO make the sand

cold water. This cloth must never
be allowed to dry. When packed for
the luncheon the sandwiches should be
wrapped in a cloth that is slightly
moistened.

sible during the summer. For the wo-
man who is in the country this advice

ADAxs' STATEMENT

Mr.. Loney b. Adams wishes us
to state, that the story Of his at
tempted elopement with Miss Edna
Morrison is a fabrication, made out
OF whole cloth. The only founda-
ton for the story is the fact that
Miss Morrison had gone to spend the
night at the home OF her sister,
probably without the consent OF
her parents. No objection has ever
been made to the visits OF Mr..
Adams to the Morrison home. Mr.
Adams is attending the Business
College in this city, and states that
the whole story is entirely without
any foundation.

Crusade Which 10 Expected Ulti.
mately to Reach Marion Has
Been Started In Clev Gland.

The Ohio State Journal publishes
the following article which will be Of
interest in Marion, since several con-
Germs are using the emblem OF the
Red Cross society. S
Notice has been served by Charles
10. Hunter. vice president Of the
Ohio branch and president OF the Co
lumbus branch of the American Ma
tional Red Cross, that the various
firms and institutions using the red
cross as a trademark are doing so
illegally. In all cases these notified
have professed ignorance of the law
on this point and have generally sig
nified their willingness to cease the
use of the insignia
3'The law under which Judge Hunt
er acts is an act of congress passed
in January 1905. which makes the
use of the red cross by anyone not
having authority by virtue of connec-
tion with the association an offense
punishable by fine of from 81 to
$500 and Imprisonment for not more
than one year. or both.
During the last 1S months there
has been movement among the Red
Cross associations OF the various
states to abolish the use OF the sign
by business and other concerns, and
in this movement the local president
Is taking an active part.
"The sign of the Red Cross Is be-
ling cheapened by the different firms
and institutions using IT," said Judge
Hunter yesterday. ''and 1t is to pre-
vent this that the movement is under
way. There are Red Cross hospitals,
| ambulances, and even dentists. all
OF whom have no connection with the
society. In addition to this there Is
in Cincinnati a firm which makes
Red Cross shoes. Another concern
Is advertising Red Cross whisky.
| Il have talked with United States
Judge on the subject land he said
that he had sympathy with the Red
Cross association and that its insignia
must be respected. II 1t is not, he
said. those who violate the law must
take the consequences.
The vice president of the Ohio
branch said he did not believe II
would be necessary to resort to
limited States court proceedings.
Those who have not changed their
signs are merely waiting for a deci-
son on the retroactive effect OF the
law and when this Is made, II ad-
verse to them. their trademarks in all
probability will be changed"
AS yet notice has not been served
upon any of the business firms in
this city which are using tle III
cross but 1t has been expected or
isomf H~el that the red. sorssss yJe3ll
! RE- ordered removed wherever, ethaa
Tare used. S~sN' .
On local ambnlances at the local
hospitals the red cross sign Is in use.
The Cook Wagon company makes
large numbers OF ambulances and on
almost every one the red cross Is
placed. It is probable that It will be
necessary to use Maltese cross II an
effort is made to enforce the act Of
congress notwithstanding the fact
that most Of the local concerns were
using the cross before the act OF
congress was passed.
