into the hall, passing from portrait TO

she asked. But you wouldn't know
that she was !, would you? Look.
She thrust her old head out until II

inspection was urged.
A resol tion was adopted asking fol-
law placing bonds on the tax dupli-
cate at the point of issue. It was
urged that by such law there would
be no getting away with the goods
and dodging taxation Equality in
taxation is grange doctrine.
A resolution was adopted urging the
prohibition of the manufacture and
sale of cigarettes.
The grange endorsed a resolution
providing that any rural credit sys-
tenn to be effective must be under con-
troll, of the government, SO as to pre-
vent manipulation by private inter
ests. 1t was urged that higher rates
of interest be offered for postal saw
ings deposits so that more money
would be available and that postal
savings money be 1oaned to farmers
at reasonable rates.
A resolution was adopted providing
that mortgaged property to the extent
of the mortgage be exempt from tax
alton. The grange urged that in
stead of trip to Washington, short
course in agriculture or domestic sci
ence at the o. S. U. be offered as a re-
ward for corn contests to Buckeye
boys and girls.
Past Master F.s A. Derthick was
authorized to prepare summary of
the oranges work and position on
school improvement during the regent
past.
There are 600 active oranges in
Ohio and there are 1900 other rural
communities that should be enjoying
the teachings of the grange. The
farmer should organize for social and
educational benefits. All other pro-
fessions are organized. Why not the
farmer?

CIVIC LEAGUE
Engage in Christmas Activities
Rummage Sale Held Saturday, Well
Supported and Patronized-C Christ
mas Cheer to Children and Homes
That Might Miss It.

The ladies of the Civic League have
won the praise of every right minded
citizen by the action they have taken
in the way of inaugurating COM
munity Christmas. The ladies were
q little late in starting the plan for
q community Christmas; the various
churches had already perfected
their plans for Christmas and
it was hardly possible for them
to make radical changes, but the
movement has been initiated and we
hope that by another year it will
have advanced so far that the village
of Wauseon will present the spectacle
Of a people united, all churches. coop
Grating to take Christmas cheer and
good win into every home and to
every soul in the community.
We can imagine no better or more
effective exemplification of the true
Christmas spirit than this and the
effect among the people and men,
bers of the churches could be no 9TH
er than the bonds of human brother
er than strengthening the bonds Of
human brotherhood and the answer
ing Of the prayer of The Elder Bro
ther, "That they all may be one".

very successful rummage sale, plan
ming first to hold the sale in the
basement of the library building, but
the response to their appeal for ma
terial was SO much larger than they
had anticipated that they were COM
PEELED to change to the council
chamber. The plan carried out was
to make the prices merely nominal
on articles of clothing and necessar-
les In the home and in cases where
there was not even little money that
could be spared for articles that
were really needed there was no price
charged. Even with this method the
receipts Of the sale were $500 and
this money will be used to furnish
necessaries, such as fuel and food
where there is absolute need.
Another plan that the ladies will
carry out, Is that no child in this
community shall be overlooked by
aSanta Claus; there will be toys and
appropriate Christmas gifts for every
child and no home will be left with
out some portion Of Christmas COM
fort and cheer, thanks to the efforts
Of the Civic League who are certain
ly proving their right to all OF the
privileges Of citizenship by their
works as citizens.

Special River Bulletin

Louisville. KY, March 29.-The local
weather bureau issued a SPECIAL river bull
letin tonight In which It Is declared that
the crest of the flood reached Parkers-
burg, w Va. Friday night, with a stage
of 59.2 feet and that the river is falling
as far down as Pomeroy. o. The stage at
Catlettsburg. Ky. says the bulletin was
one foot below the crest of 1884.
The gauge here tonight at o'clock
showed 4l.9 feet with the river rising at
the rate of one-tenth of q foot an hour.
A stage of 43 feet by { sr 8 o'clock to-
morrow and a crest of Is feet is predicted
for this point by the local bureau This
l. only one and oile-half feet below the
crest of the flood in 1884. which, reached
stage of 465 feet at this point.
Louisville and Nashville trains entering
the east end of the city tonight plowed
through several feet of water which came
up to the floor of the cars.
River traffic with upstream points has
been suspended.
The Pennsylvania, Big Four and Chesa-
peake and Ohio railroads already have
begun to experience trouble and the serv-
ice on these three lines today was ir-
regular The Southern has lost its line
to st. Louis and the Louisville, Hender-
son and st. Louis is in danger of inter-
Iuption because of the high water at
Hawsville.
Dispatches from all parts OF the state
tell of swollen streams, inundated dis
tricts and damage to property. From
Owensboro, Paducah and Henderson ad-
vices report that the people in the low
lands are taking refuge on higher ground
carrying their live stock and effects with
them.
Today 60 inmates of the Indiana state
ieformatory at Jeffersonville, across the
river from Louisville, were put to work
strengthening the levee.

SERIOUS FLOOD
is ANTICIPATED

Louisville. March 29.-With the Ohio
river showing rise Of only one tenth
of foot an hour and no developments
between Louisville and Cincinnati to
indicate anything higher than the orig
inal prediction of a crest at Louisville
of 45 feet, the only disconcerting re-
ports received here today were those
from Parkersburg, W. Va, telling of
a stage of 81 feet. As forecasts on
the crest had been based prior to that
time on the stages between here and
Catlettsburg together with the state
ment that the river was falling at
Pittsburg all estimates were upset and
all feared much more serious flood
than had been anticipated. Reassuring
advices from Washington, where flood
experts in the weather bureau said
that "a feet at Parkersburg had been
probably misunderstood as 64 served
to revive confidence in the situation.
Reports received today and tonight
from points between Louisville and
Cincinnati on the east, and Louisville
and the Mississippi on the west, all
told of the greatest precautions hav-
ing been taken to prevent any loss of
life when the highest stages are
reached in the Ohio.
The property damage reported had
long been regarded as inevitable and
was not unexpected.
The river at Louisville registered Ala
at noon, 41.5 at l o'clock, 41.6 at
o'clock and continued to show the Same
increase throughout the remainder of
the day.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-03-30
LIVE STOCK CARRIED
TO THE HIGHLANDS

Live stock of all kinds has been car
ried to the highlands except at sew
era1 points both up and down the
river, where cattle kept at distilleries
to fatten on the by-products of the
plants, were caught in the rapidly ris-
ing waters before they could be un-
tethered and driven to points of safety.
Such situa ations are being carefully
watched by the health authorities who
will take suitable precautions to de-
stroy all carcasses as soon as 1t Is
possible as precaution against dis
ease. In some instances efforts are
still being made to get these cattle
out of the flood.
Funds were inaugurated today to
care for the refugees, most of whom
already are driven out of their homes
when the lowlands in and around
Louisville were flooded several days
ago.
Announcement was made tonight that
it was not believed the power plants
would be flooded. Fears had been en-
tertained that electric railway service
in this city, as well as southern In.
diana, would stop on this account.
