AS 10 ROAD IMPROVEMENTS

The United Tax Payers League
called upon. Legislative candidates
at Guthrie Center recently for a state
ment of their position upon the road
question.
All of the candidates were opposed
to brick or cement pavements or their
equivalent. Senator Foster made a
speech of considerable length which
he summed up as follows:
/ am NOT advocating paved roads.
am NOT advocating any specific
kind of roads.
| am NOT advocating an increase
of Road Tax.
/ am NOT advocating a State Bond
Issue for road improvement--or for
any other purpose.
AM advocating BETTER
SPENDING of Iowa's present road
funds.
AM advocating that people be
permitted to spend their own money
as they please, and for such roads as
they want.
AM advocating that people may
upon proper petition, by vote deter,
mine the kind of road improvements
they want, or whether they want any
and by the same process that they
may determine how they will pay fol
them.
I stand for local self government

while Mrs. John Crees and daughter,
Nellie. aged 13 years, were leaving
their home place five miles east of
town, for visit at the home of her
daughter, Mrs. Earl Twist, four miles
north of town, the horse they were
driving became frightened at the
buggy top and started to run away.
Mrs. Crees was unable to manage the
horse. She and her daughter were
thrown to the ground and rendered
unconscious, in which condition they
remained for about an hour. With
the aid of physician and some neigh
bors they were brought to conscious
ness, and with the exception of few
bruises, they sustained no injuries.
The buggy was badly damaged and
the horse in its mad flight, jumped
over the fence into field. received
a badly sprained foot; which brought
it to a sudden halt. The animal fell
to the ground in helpless condition
and remained there until it was as
sisted.

DEBORAH BEATS Usage.
High School Football Team Wins
From Usage Seminary Monday.

The DEBORAH high school foot
ball team won victory over the
Usage Seminary team at the fair
grounds Monday afternoon by score
Of IA to 6. While the game proved
good one, still both teams were poor
on defense. The local team did not
play low enough to prevent the Usage
backs from making frequent good
gains through 1t.
The high school backfield led By
Capt. Schlatter played the most bril-
liant game SO far this season. Evans
played above the average at end,
catching seven difficult forward pas
SEES without failure. Anderson and
Glesne played the best game of any
in the line proper.
On account of Swezey's absence for
two or three weeks from an injured
tendon, coach Heller had to sudden
, ly shift McAndrcws to end, and he
played well there for his first game
in that position. The high school
boys were outweighed probable
average of fifteen pounds to a man.
Frances Marsh is steadily improv-
| ing with the passing end Of the game.
Next Friday West Union plays at
the fair grounds. They have played
close games with New Hampton, In.
dependence, Oelwein and Cresco and
SO hard game is expected. Coach
Heller is having a hard time filling
Swezey's and Storlas shoes, the lat

Admission 10 cents.

A very unusual appeal has been
made to the entire country by Presi-
dent Wilson, and he has made this
appeal at the request of Congress.
| No such appeal has been made before
during this war as the one for the
lArmenians. And this exceptional
call upon the charities of the nation
is justified by condition of poverty
and misery among the Armenians
and Syrians that is simply indescrib-
able. AT least 100000 Armenians
have already persisted through mas
sacre and their exile to the deserts
and the 1,250,000 remaining are
starving and dying under conditions
that would harrow up the soul OF
ANYONE at all conversant with the re-
alities. Selections from book CT
seven hundred pages, to be soon is
sued by Lord Bryce Of England, have
appeared In many of our dailies. The
following telegram was sent by him
to the committee in New York, who
have this matter in charge, a few
days ago:
'All civilized nations able to as
siSt Armenians today should know
need still extremely urgent. Several
hundred thousand exiles who surviv-
/ ed horrors of deportation now per-
ishing of exposure and starvation in

trail eye witnesses describe terrible
conditions. Sick people throwing
themselves into graves and begging

ents putting children out of misery,
digging own graves and awaiting
death. Future OF Armenian nation
