Moore. "and / think 1t is due to
the growing tendency Of the peo-
pie to read literature of ali kinds
that Is being distributed by the
agencies in support of their ideas.
What we must do to bring about
better conditions is to face the
problems. am not one of those
who thinks that everything is all

"a VETERANS WILL
co TO CHAT TANOOGA

The Sol Meredith Post, No. SIS, of
the G. A. R. will be represented by
twenty-four veterans at the National
Encampment to be held at Chatta-
nooga, Tenn, September Is to 25, in
elusive.
This Is the largest number of Wayne
county Civil War veterans that have
attended a national encampment for
several years. Because of the proxim-
ity of Chattanooga and it's historical
surroundings the reunion this year
will be largely attended by middle
west and western veterans.
Though it was believed that the
Gettysburg reunion, recently held,
would detract from the number who
would otherwise attend the National
encampment, arrangements are being
made to accommodate more men than
have ever before attended a reunion
of this kind. Last year the encamp-
ment was held in Los Angeles and the
year before the event was held in
Rochester, New York
Many of the veterans who will at
tend from here, as we'll as others who
have not signified their intentions of
attending, saw active service in the
war of the rebellion in the vicinity of
Chattanooga. The following is the
list of local veterans who will attend:
d. w. Comstock, Indiana depart
ment commander; Daniel Hill, George
Fetta, John Caseley, Christ Vossler,

cieties are contemplating attending

the veterans who are planning to at
tend are Mrs. Jerome Jordan, Mrs

SEEK CLOTHES FOR
THE POOR k|OD|ES
Salvation Arn,s, on Eve of
School Opening, Issues
Appeal to Public.

Ensign Anthony Vaudeville, in
charge of the local Salvation Army
post, has issued an appeal for dona-
tions of clothing to be used in supply
ing the children of poor families in
the city who will soon enter school,
Shoes and complete outfits for boys,
and dresses for girls, between the ages
of five and twelve, are especially
sought.
Over 80 children have already been
furnished with clothing for school pur
poses by the Salvation Army and the
supply at the army headquarters in
Rhoda Temple, Is about exhausted.
! Every year clothing is furnished at the
beginning of school by the army to $50
children. The heavy demand for as
sistance of this kind is usually felt
during the first week of school. Ad-
ditional clothing is needed to meet
this demand.
Supply Was Exhausted
Yesterday two children out of fam
lily of six, the widowed mother of
whom does washing for living, ap-
pealed to the Salvation Army for shoes
and clothing. The officials supplied
one child with the required clothing,
but were compelled to send the other
one away because they were unable to
furnish the necessary garments.
Every case helped by the Salvation
Army receives a thorough investiga-
tion before assistance is given. Every
thing that is given out from this
source goes to place where it is both
| needed and appreciated.

receive any amount of good servicea-

SYSTEMATIC ROAD
PROJECT OUTLINED
Morton Park Will be the Cen.
ter of an Elaborate Net
work of Roads.

With the completion of the new Nor
ton lake, the directors are taking un-
der consideration convenient means
of access for the public into the new
park. Alexander Gordon, superintend-
ent of the street car company stated
today that a car extension into the
park Is assured at an early date next
year, although the route of the line
has not been decided upon.
A system of paved boulevards will
entirely surround the park and exten-
sive plans for new streets, covering
two years of work, have been made.
Inside the grounds of the park there
will be network of gravel roads, the
first year, which will be macadamized
as quickly the work can be done.
BY 1915, the park and the city will be
surrounded with paved roadways
which will be connected at all points,
making in all more than ten miles of
new paved streets. 1t is expected that
IL the plans are carried out, more than
$150,000 will be spent for paving
roads, including others than those in
the vicinity of the park.
What is expected to be the most
popular entrance aside from that of
the street car line, is North Nine
teenth street. This street will connect
at the Gaar road to a brick street,
which will extend from the New Paris
pike. The New Paris pike will also be
bricked to Twelfth street, connecting
there with a brick roadway, which
will be built late this year, from Tenth
and J streets out onto the Middleton
ough pike. At twelfth and streets,
plans are being considered for the
construction of brick roadway in
J street to Nineteenth street, connect
ing there with what will be circle of
brick streets, entirely around the park
grounds.
From Main street there will then be
a direct brick roadway for automobiles
and vehicles. Beginning at Eighth and
South H streets, there is at present
under construction brick roadways to
the hospital north of the city. Through
these thoroughfares, connections can
be made with the roads around Nor
ton park.
From the proposed street i'm
provement, a macadam road will con-
meet, one half square east of Seven
teenth street, running north across the
dam bridge and joining with the New
Paris brick street. From this macadam
road, the system of roads inside the
grounds will branch out.

Trains are Delayed

Passenger trains are badly behind
the schedule. says Station Master
Mayhem. The greater part of all pas
senger trains were from twenty min
utes to an hour late. This delay is
due to the heaviness of the trains,
each one being forced to carry several
extra coaches to accommodate the
large crowds of people who are de-
manding service of the railroads at
this time The trains from the north
