Flood in BELGIUM.

The very disastrous flood situation
in Belgium was checked by a sudden
drop of the temperature twenty
degrees which converted the rain
into a fierce blizzard. The snowfall
thruout Belgium was many inches
deep. Already the rivers have be-
gun falling The enormous losses
caused by the flood are now made
apparent. Thousands of houses are
covered with deep coating of mud.
Firemen are pumping out cellars
and spraying with disinfectants TO
prevent an epidemic. Miles of road
way have been washed out. The
machinery in many mills and fac
tories has been destroyed. This
means long period of suspension of
work and consequent loss of wages
and prospect of suffering among
the idle industrial population.
The snowfall has blocked traffic
by rail in parts of the country and
many telegraph lines are down.
Snow Troubles in Switzerland
A very heavy snowfall which
covered Switzerland few days
ago is now beginning to feel the
effects of the thaw, and there is
consequently much danger from
avalanches, which have swept away
different persons and in some in
stances cut thru the railroad lines,
causing the suspension of opera
lions on some of the roads. Lake
Constance is rising at dangerous
rate as result of the continuous
fall of rain and snow for several
DAYS.

of the world. II rests the father and
the mother to think of the things
outside their little valley.
And there is the money value. The
mother saves money because of the
things she gets from The Citizen.
The father makes money because OF
the things he gets from The Citizen.
And there is the education and the
religion of it. The nearby Sunday
School sometimes runs down, and
the preacher comes only once
month; but The Citizen comes every
week.
And the young folks are proflted
by the news, the stories, and the
bright things that are especially for
them. Do you wish your larger
boys and girls to be cOntented and
happy at home, then give them The
Citizen.
A family that does not have The
Citizen is sure to drop behind.

BADHAM WITH
 TURNER ELECTRIC co.

Robert J. Badham has accepted the position as city salesman for the Mar athon automobile tires. the southeast ern agency for which automobile ne- cessity was recently given to the Tur- ner Electric and Auto company. An an nouncement to this effect was made yesterday by the officials of the Tur- ner Electric and Auto company MT Radham Is son of Henry L. Badham president of the Bessener Coal, Iron and Land company. The work of sell ing goods is a natural power of MT Eadham and 1t is predicted that he will show wonderful results.
 The Marathon tire, which has only been recently announced here, has a place of great consideration among au- tomobile owners elsewhere. It Is be- lieved that with the selling power of Mir. sadham to push the tire, coupled with its well known staying qualities, will result in a wide distribution of the tires in this district.
 Oscar Turner, president of the com pany, said last night that he was very much pleased to have obtained the ser vices of Nil. Badham in the sales de- partment of the Marathon tires.

 Save These Losses
 Save the avoidable troubles. Get all the safety. strength and mileage that you can. Then you have the utmost in tire. That is what Goodyear gives you. In the five ways cited. no other maker offers what we give.
 The result is that Goodyear leads. No other tire commands such prestige or such sale.
 And our matchless output enables prices which few makers meet

He Skinned the Horse

From the Philadelphia Telegraph
 Here is one that was told by Represen- tative Charles D. Carter of Oklahoma, the other evening in demonstrat ting that 1t sometimes pays to be little more ex- plicit.
 Recently a man who lives In the west was notified over the telephone that a horse belonging to him had broken from the pasture and had been killed by the cars. Calling a farm hand. he told him to go to the meadows and skin the horse
 What's that! exclaimed the farnu hand wondering, Do you mean to say that Frank is dead?'
 What's that to your" imperiously de- manded the grouchy boss. "Go and do as tell you."
 The farm hand departed, and it wasn' until several hours later that he reap peared Of course, the boss demanded an explanation.
 ''I have been skinnin that hoss," an swered the farm hand in response to the boss question.
 "Sknnin' the horsel'' exclaimed the boss. heatedly. Do you mean to say that it took you five hours to do it?''
 No, sir,'' was the startling rejoinder of the farm hand. .I was nearly two hours ketchn' him..

The Canal and the War

From the Philadelphia Press
 The opening of the Panama canal to all vessels takes on added interest as result of the war and the conse- quent possibility that the great water way which splits two continents may play it's part in the mighty conflict now raging.
