Night With Bad Booze
Ended In Death Alone
from rtiday's Bslry.

From rriday's ualiy.
Fairmont, Mimi, July "a .1"Acute
alcoholism and exposure" was the
cause of death. is the report OF Cor
oner Brodt after investigating the
tragic ending Of ivan Anderson sof
Cedar, whose lifeiess remains were
found in the haymow of the barn on
the farm Of hts brother. Robert, ear
~ Wednesday morning. An Inquest
was not considered necessary. s
For thirteen years Anderson had
worked as farm hand in the vIciri.
fly Of Triumph and Monterey. He
was good worker and not a ban
man. His one great falling was his
uncomfortable appetite for strong
drink. He was not a steady drinker
but from time to time would yield
to his weakness and go on spree
for several days at a time. The
Triumph saloons were a constant,
convenient and Irresistible Invitation
to fall from grace Some years ago,
through the efforts OF friends and
relatives, he took a liquor cure but
soon lapsed into his former habits
Was In Hobo Camp.
Last Saturday Anderson left his
brothers place and went to Triumph
Although HIS habits were well known
to all in that town he had no trouble
in getting liquor and speedily became
almost helplessly intoxicated. He APP
pears to have stopped with camp
o. hoboes near the town. ~
.on Monday Anderson's brother
went to town and had Ivan placed on
the blacklist. After that he visited
the saloons and demanded drink; but
was refused. He declared that n
made no difference, he would get II
anyway-and he did. II is supposed
that the hoboes procured liquor with
Anderson's money and brought It to
their camp where all drank freely. The
liquor supply consisted Of pure alec.
hoL 49,
Walked Distance 5arefooted.
Tuesday night there was a heavy
rainstorm and Anderson left the hobo
camp to seek shelter in his brothers
barn several miles away. His tracks
show that he walked the distance
barefooted. He reached the barn
soaking wet, weak from his debauch
and probably in state of complete
exhaustion as he ate little or nothing
while on one Of his debauches. He
lay down in the hay and sank into a
sleep that knows no waking. When
his brother came to the barn to do
the morning chores the lifeless body
was discovered. 4
The hoboes scattered when Ander-
sons death became known. They had
taken from him everything Of value,
his money, his watch. and even his
shoes. - s.l sea-

South Bend Club Women Are
Planning to Join Movement
Back to Cotton" for Dresses

and growing demand our manufac-
turers will undoubtedly gain incentive
TO do great things with cotton which
We cannot now fOresee or imagine"
Mrs. George Phillips of the Thurs
day club, which only recently Joined
the safe federation, expressed herself
in favor Of the movement as a prin-
ciple but added that In the average
family the purchase of a considerabl bic
amount of cotton goods is enforced
and therefore the movement cannot
touch them TO any marked extent, or
rather, 1t will not change their mode
of living. OF course. il is different
with people OF wealth and fashion for
whom the use OF a great deal of cot
ton would be an innovation Perhaps
they viii be able 20 accomplish the
good they hope TO do"
Indiana Women Join Move.
The cotton movement among wom-
en- is the outgrowth of the "buy-a-
DaleOf-cottOn" movement among
men. It was first suggested by Miss
Genevieve Clark. daughter of the
speaker of the house, and was quick
~ taken up by certain smart sets I'm
the east. Then it was endorsed by
Mrs. Percy V. Pennybacker, president
of the National Federation OF Wom-
ems clubs and finally was taken up
by the club women of individual
states
Among Indiana club women Mrs.
Felix T. McWhirter, past president of
the State Federation, and well known
and admired by South Bend club
women. is enthusiastic over the idea,
for she is OF southern birth and under
stands what the movement will mean
10 the south.
The club women of this state are
so closely allied TO the women of the
southern states" said Mrs McWhir-
ter, that L am sure we will all re-
JOice in being able to help our south
ern sisters III this, their hour of need.
The movement Will mean a return to
the more sanitary apparel for chill
dren. Schoolgirls would enjoy the
chance if the fashion was set. II
would carry with it the advantage of
bringing the country at large into
greater resourcefulness and self-reli-
ance. The fact also of good fellow
ship on account of incidentally aiding
the south would bring a closer friend

the south would more than balance
the inconvenience and sacrifices TO
fashion which might result from a
general movement for the use of cot

furnishings. The artistic effects are
