BOOSTERS CLUB
Wauseon Boosters Club Fully Or
ganized Officers Elected-Co Commit
tee On Hand With Reports-Eight
New Members-Club to Give Wau-
seon Slogan.

There could be no doubt as to the
real live public spirit of Wauseon in
the mind of any one who looked in on
the second meeting of the newly
formed Wauseon Club last Monday
evening at Mantauk Club Hall, the
attendance was excellent. All the
members present and a few more.
The nominating committee reported
and the club elected the following Of
fcers: President, F. H. Reighard;
1st Vice President, o. C. Standish;
End Vice President, G. E. Howe; Sec
retary, Fred H. Wolfe; Treasurer, H.
F. Davis. Vice President G. E. Howe
presided at the meeting and reports
from thee ommittees appointed at the
last meeting were heard; the COM
mittee on band reported that they
had not yet secured a manager for
the band. The committee appointed
to investigate the proposition to es-
tablish an auto tire factory in Wau-
seon reported the findings of their in
vestigations which were decidedly
adverse to the proposition. Right
here the value of such an organiza-
tion as this club was apparent; the
organization that can direct an un-
predjudiced investigation of a propo-
sition that may look good to the pro-
moter and which it is the promoters
business to make look good to the
possible investor, and then lay the
cold facts of such an investigation
before the people of community is
certainly in position to save the peo-
pie of that community a good many

appointment. F. R. Guilford sug-
gested that the club should formally
adopt some name and Roll Hoy sug-
gested the name "Wauseon Boosters
Club" After some discussion this
name was adopted without any dis
senting votes.
The matter of adopting a slogan
for Wauseon was brought up and
Mayor Hoy was appointed COM
mite to invite Mr.. Warren General
manager Of the Toledo and Indiana
Ry. Co., to attend the next meeting
in order that the club might confer
with him in regard to having the slo-
gan when adopted placed in an elec-
trio display sign in some prominent
place where all coming into or pass
inc through the town may see it. The
club voted to give a prize Of five dol
lars to the person submitting the
most acceptable slogan for Wauseon.
The chair appointed committee of
three consisting of F. E. Kenyon,
Chas. H. Jordan and w. B. Harris
to take entire charge of the mat
ter and report at the next meeting.
The time for the next meeting was
set for Monday evening Mav 8 in the
Montauk Club Hall.
The club now has a membership
of So and there is plenty of room for
more. Everybody who has a real
live interest in the progress and
prosnerity of Wauseon along any
line, socially, commercially or moral
ly, is invited to become member of
this club and help to boost. The pur-
pose of this club is to work along all
lines that make for the welfare of
Wauseon and its citizens.

MEXICAN SITUATION
From View Point of American Citiz-
ems Living on The Border. Inter-
esting Letter From o. E. M. How
ard of National City California to
His Mother Mrs. Mary Howard.
National City. April %, 1914.

National City, April 22, 1914.
Dear Mother:-I write and send
clipping fearing that you might be
needlessly alarmed about our situa-
ton here. We were at no time in
danger except from the apathy
amounting almost to imbecility OF our
governments both state and nation
al. An appeal has been heard and
troops both U. S. and state are
being rushed to the border and strong
guards are being placed about our
water reservoirs and other remark
able points. Our President seems to
think he is dealing with lot of un-
ruly freshmen who have been play
ing pranks on the faculty. He evil
IDENTIFY does not understand the situ-
alton or the people of Mexico. There
is no choice between the two factions
contending for supremacy there.
Their leaders and every one OF their
officers are bandit chiefs, as bloody
set of cutthroats and robbers as ever
led their followers to loot village.
Their followers are ignorant savages.
They never have owned land, or a
house, or slept in bed. They do
not know what patriotism means,
but they do know what it means to
pilliage town and gorge themselves
on what is left by the murdered oc-
cupants, and will follow the leader
who promise them the most of this
kind of booty. We will have war
with them and it will not be a short
one. Our government has allowed
them to arm and equip themselves
from our well stored warehouses and
factories. Today every man and boy
in service is armed, most OF them are
mounted and without commissary can
move rapidly from place to place sub
sisting on the cactus that covers the
mountain side, or killing wornout
horse and feasting on his carcus like
vultures.
The idea of treating these people
as YOU would civilized nation is pre-
porterous, force is all they know
and our government should call Tor
at least two hundred thousand men
at once. Every moments delay
means life. We do not want foot
of their land but do want them to re-
spect our flag, and the property
rights and lives of our citizens who
have been invited to do business
among them.
After a hot political campaign l
have been elected mayor of this city
so "old age never cools the Douglas
Blood" / do not propose to be side
tracked although "three score years
and ten" are behind me. / will
write frequently while these troub-
lous times endure.
Love to all-your son,
o. E. M. HOWARD.

that, this district is devoted entirely
to residences, that it would be a
source of constant annoyance and
that it would tend to greatly depre-
ciate the value of property in that To-
cality. The matter was referred to
the city solicitor and the building
committee.
The clerk reported the receipt of
the Lake Shore Ry. assessment on
Brunell street improvement amount
ing to narly $1,000.
While waiting for the councilmen to
gather, some one asked Marshal Can
telberry if his "hotep was closed for
the season and the marshal became
reminiscent in regard to the "strang-
ers" he had entertained during the
season past, he said that from jan
uary 5th to April 1st he had given
lodging to exactly 744 persons; this
is the "record breaker" so far as is
known for the town lookup and it
seems that Wauseon must be getting
reputation as Winter stopping
place among the followers of the
road.

If people saw the average Fulton

from Denver we could distinguish the

The light, clear air is responsible
for this. You have read the book

are 1877 miles from here, and you can
see them on clear day. But enough

stalks. In this way 1t settles in the
roots and is not washed away by the
rain, giving the celery a blue look.
However, even II the spray is prop

ture advises the consumer to break
the punches and wash and scrub the
stalks before they are eaten. Chem.

left by the spray and prevents injury

DON'T SUFFER WITH ITCHING

My. what relief!-The moment res
inol ointment touches any itching skin,
the itching stops and healing begins.
With the aid OF resinol soap, 1t quickly
removes all trace OF eczema, rash, tet-
ter, ringworm, pimples or other ugly,
tormenting eruption, and leaves the
skin clear and healthy. II is equally
effective for sunburn, insect bites,
sores, boils, burns, red, rough hands,
dandruff and falling hair.
You need never hesitate to use res
inol. It is a Doctors prescription that
has been used by other physicians for
the past 19 years in the treatment Of
most sorts OF skin affection. Unlike
many other remedies, It contains abso-
lutely nothing that could injure the
tenderest skin. Resinol ointment and
resinol soap are sold by all druggists.

One night he played the part in a
