BURIED
Leg Caused Patient Much
Pain Until II Was Dug Up
(Mansfeld News.)

Theodore Spealman, who lives near
the plant of the Mansfield Clay Pro.

road, complained SO much that his
right leg (Which he lost several DAYS
ago. was cramped and panied him
This caused his relatives to djsinter
the limb and bring it to this city for
examination.
When Philip Wappner opened the
box to examine the leg which had
been taken off at the knee, he found
that the box was too short and that
the limb was cramped, just as Speal.

Mr.. Wappner says this is not the
first case of this kind he has had.
Several years ago he had to disinter

his toes being cramped 1t was found
that two of the toes were crossed.
After the toes were Strengthened, the

George |. MCNutt Lectures
On "The Hunger Clutch
And Gives Many Of His Per-
SOndl Experiences

A big dominating personality lay
behind the work of Alton G.. Packard,
cartoonist, who played Thursday to
the largest opening night audience
since the Chautauqua became an in
stitution in this city. The personality
OF one ripe in years and experience,
in character, judgment and insight
into human nature, made itself felt
so strongly Thursday evening that
had Packard merely drawn straight
line and then talked, the audience
would have applauded vigorously.
Droll, witty sayings were shot
forth by Packard in time to the rapid
and dextrous movements of his
chalk and kept the audience in a con-
stant state of mirth and uproar Com
edy that, in the hands of another and
lesser light, would have taken on the
cheap vaudeville and burlesque form,
assumed dignity yet without a whit
less of laugh-producing power, when
Packard put it across" and all be-
cause of the personality behind it.
Rapidly sketching the figure of one

Packard narrated events that brought
about the symbolization of this char
acter as representing the American
people. Uncle Sam" then proceeded
to introduce, through the adept fin
gers of Packard, the motley collection

ers of the world, actual sharing of
their joys, griefs and woes, actual
comprehension of their problems and
worries has given Rev. McNutt a
philosophic outlook on life, far more
comprehensive than the doctrinal pre-.
cepts of single church, though de-
cidedly wholesome and religious in
itself.
Although Rev. McNutt's announced
subject was "The Hunger Clutch" he
soon forget this in the excitement of
a broader and more universal sub

of people one finds in this country
who may be dubbed Americans. The
point emphasized by Packard was
that there are comparatively few
people who may really call them
selves Americans.
AS rest from chalk work, Packard
straddled the piano stool and sang
several original compositions with a
humping accompaniment, chief
among which was when You Get
What You Want, You Don't Want It"

mands from the audience for encores,

cd.
AS a final wind-up to the evenings
entertainment, Packard executed a
beautiful sketch in color, picturing an
aged couple wandering down the lane
from their farmhouse at sunset, de-
serted by children who have aban-
doned the old place for the call of the
city and anxiously awaiting the stern
summons of death. With appropriate
moralizing remarks, Packard took his
final bow amid applause mixed with a
tear here and there.

of the ordinary existence Of mortal

capes had been installed after the dis
astrous Collingwood school fire in
Cleveland, and just as lake steamers
will be made safe in the future, after
the loss of 1000 odd lives on the
Eastland last week.
Rev. McNutt's closing plea was for
greater suffrage Of the people at the
voting polls and more Christian-like
spirit in ordinary life. AS the two
adiusters of social, economic and NOR
al conditions, Rev. McNutt strongly
advocated these.
A very delightful bit of both the
program of the afternoon and that of
the evening was an orchestra COM
posed of six young and pretty girls,
who styled themselves "The Military
Girls" Their offering consisted of
variety of things, running from solos,
vocal duets and vocal quartets to vio-
lin and piano solos and orchestral
numbers, interluded with several very
clever recitations. That their act was
decided hit was evidenced by the
loud applause that greeted every num-
Der. Attired in khaki uniform and
wearing puttees, they made very
striking appearance on the stage,
while their work on the snare drums
impaired a martial air to the pro-
ceedings, although several of their
songs were strong in their appeals for
peace.
Altogether the day was an auspic-
ious opening of what promises to be
an auspicious Chautauqua.
The Superintendent
The superintendent of this years
Chautauqua, Mr.. l. B. Gilbert of Grand
Rapids, Mich, has had seven years
experience in this branch of endeavor
and possesses above all an extremely
pleasing personality.
When Rev. Ira ]. Houston present
ed .Supt. Gilbert to Thursday after
Moons audience, he took occasion to
remark that he was associated with
him in college for three years-an
association which ripened into a true
and lasting friendship.
Supt. Gilbert attended the Univer-
sity of Michigan at Ann Arbor for
two years. He finished his academic
work at Olivet college, where he re-
ceived his bachelors degree and later,
masters degree. Pursuing post-grad-
uate work at Harvard, Supt Gilbert
received the degree of Doctor Of Phil
osophy.
For a large number OF years, Supt.
Gilbert has been principal Of Tech
nical high school in Grand Rapids,
Mich, where his record has been one
to be envied. Seven years ago he
adopted the superintendency of Chau-
tauquas as pleasant and remunerat-
i've summer vocation and has since
been a strong factor in determining
their success in the various cities and
towns he has visited.
Supt. Gilbert is York and Scottish
Rite Mason and has been an enthusi-
astic worker in the former rite for a
number of years, being past master
of the lodge, and having served for
several years on the committee for

HUNDREDS OF FARMS DYING
FROM TUBERCULOSIS, HE SAYS

Washington, Dec. 31.-Rural plan
ming which will do for the great
stretches of the open country what
city planning has done to preserve
and extend the beauties and COM
forts of urban communities, was ad-
vocated before the American Civic
society today by Prof. Frank A.
Waugh of the Massachusetts Agri-
cultural college.
Country people in every state, he
declared are living in uncomfortable
and inconvenient homes, using un-
slightly and inefficient roads and
schools and dying of tuberculosis be-
cause there has not been adequate
planning of country resources.
"Why should anyone care for n.y.
drangea paniculata grandiflora in the
front farm yard" he asked, "while
the side yard, where the family ought
to live, is strewn with rotting farm
machinery, the back yard reeks and
the pestilential we'll gives up water
succulent with the drainage from the
kitchen sink?"

WINFIELD SCOTT HAMMOND.

Every one will mourn the loss of
Minnesota's chief executive. His
public career is a heritage to all the
people Of the state. His death will
fall upon the people, not only as a
public loss, but a personal loss, for
Mr.. Hammond's long career has won
for him legion of personal friends
Governor Hammond was a high
minded man. He had an infinite
capacity for attention to details and
nothing passed through his office un-
til he knew it was absolutely right.
He had stern exterior and a cour-
age to do right at all times. Every
question that he decided was on the
basis as to whether it was right or
wrong, and not whether it was expe-
dient or advisable politically.
He was quiet, modest, unassum-
ing man, not given to advertising his
good deeds, and what impressed most
of his friends was his uniform cous-
tesy, his kind-hearted sympathy and
his absolute integrity.
He was charming conversation
alist and a public speaker Of rare
eloquence and unusual persuasive
power
The entire nation bows in grief for
his loss.

THE YEAR 1915.

Today is the end of a year Of
death.
Today the New Year, 1915, is ap-
preached with a feeling of sorrow
and sadness.
Today, when we should reEel in
the joy of living, we are consumed
with passion for our brothers who
are perishing in the blOod-soaked
trenches of Europe. We are weigh
ed down with sorrow for the unfor-
tunate men and women who must
bear the burdens Of the greatest and
most destructive human blight the
world has ever known. Our hearts
are saddened with regret and the
spirit Of the New Year is forgotten
in a wild and bloody carnage of death
and destruction.
AS we turn our faces to look at
the year 1915, the year that dies to-
night, in our visions we see the GRIM
son stained fields of Europe, the fam
inc ridden land of Mexico, the dying
race of the Christian Armenians, on
every hand the grim and terrible
spectre of harsh, violent, sudden and
agonizing death.
May we never see the like of such
a year of death again.
May the new year, 1916, bring Joy
and prosperity.
May the New Year bring peace
on earth, good will toward men,"
Happy New Year.
