ELKS' MEMORIAL
ATTRACTS MANY

That the enlightened philosophy on
death does not regard the departure
of the soul as one of the depressing
realities of life, but views this event
merely as a departure into more
sublime life, was the eloquently ex-
pressed theme of the memorial ad-
dres delivered Sunday afternoon by
the Rev. J. ]. Rae, pastor of the First
Presbyterian church, at the annual
Elke lodge memorial services.
1t Is the duty of each man to gener-
ate in his life time the greatest influ-
ence for good which done one enters
after death the greatest life rendering
death devoid of it's sting.
The memorial services were largely
attended by members of the lodge and
their families and all were charmed
with the wholesome sentiments ex-
pressed by Dr. Rae and by H. L. Mon
arch a member of the lodge who de-
livered the eulogy on these brothers
who have answered Deaths call.
Music was rendered by an orchestra
composed of Frederick Hicks, violin
list, Royden Park, flute, and Miss
Helen Hadley, pianist. Mrs. F:.J. Bar.
tel was the soloist.

GUN CREW FIGHT
LOCKED IN TuRRET
OF ARMORED AUTO

CHALONS. France, Dec. 6 mail to
New York)-"When we have taken
you out before we have shown you
trenches" said a French officer.
This time we are going to show you
a field OF victory-lines of trenches
which we took from the Germans"
Not all the spoil had yet been re-
moved from that section fifteen miles
long and from one to five In breadth,
where on September Is and rs the
French had broken back the siege line
Of the Germans with the concentration
of infantry and the expenditure of a
million shells.
AS we approached the field what
looked like a man Of war turret on
wheels was being drawn along the
road. The cupola Of riveted armor was
denied by shell fragments. It had an
opening for the swing of a small gun
and a door for the exit and entrance
Of the crew which could be fastened
by bolt and heavy chain.
Three men were found inside
locked in," said an officer. "The tur-
ret was set in the parapet of q trench
at an important point of the line. All
the German soldiers in the neighbor-
hood had either been killed or buried
alive. We had to break the lock to
take the crew out. All three were
alive, but stunned. They had gone on
firing their gun as long as they could"
Freely the correspondent moved be-
tween the old first line French and
German trenches, which for many
months has been a zone of death for
whoever showed himself. In front Of
the first line trench the Germans had
barbed wire entanglements five or six
feet broad A rabbit could not have
gone through without being caught.

All able-bodied men Of fairly good
health are now accepted and sent to

1t Ought to be Used on Roads

The auditors license records
show there are 4, 500 more auto
mobiles in the state than there
were in 1914. This not only in
dicates a satisfactory state of
business, but also means an in
crease of S45,O 600 in state reve-
nues. In urging the necessity
for higher taxation, the tax brig
ade refrained from figuring pro-
bable increases in the already
established items of revenue. So
this extra S45, 600 is so much vel
vet over and above the liberal
estimates Of expenditures. 1t is
enough to pave four miles of
road, but it won't be used for
such a purpose. 1t will be need
ed for other things. For in
stance, the Charleston Gazette
tells of a nice trip to the San
Francisco Exposition taken by
Vernon E. Johnson, speaker of
the House Of Delegates. Mr..
Vernon went as the personal
representative of the governor, Z"
and read an address prepared by
latter at the West Virginia day
exercises. The trip cost $685..
Al and the little old state of
West Virginia paid the bill. Ev-
idence of this is found in a draft,
dated September Z, 1915, drawn
by the governor on the state au-
ditor and honored by the state
treasurer, the voucher being in
scribed For expenses from
Berkeley Springs to the Panama
Exposition as representative of
Governor for West Virginia
Day."
The Gazette says the expense
was equivalent to the state tax
of Ia cents on SIS, 900. The Ga
zette is wrong there. 1t is exag-
gerating backwards, a misrepre-
sentation with the reverse Eng
lish. The fact is Mr.. Johnson's
expense is the equivalent of the
state tax OF Ia cents on $500, 600.

dollars worth of property gone
