PLEAS MADE FOR
NATIONAL GUARD
Militia Officers OF Tri.Cities Boost for
Organization at Press Club
Meeting.
REAL COOPERATION is SOUGHT
Major Edward Dunavin Says Rock Is
land May Lose Its Company
Aledo Wants 1t.

Pleas for larger recognition OF the
national guard and for more cordial
attitude of the public toward it, were
made at the monthly meeting Of the
Tri-Citv Press club last evening at the
Rock Island house by Major Edward
Dunavin, Rock Island; Captain Arthur
NJ. Compton, Battery B, Davenport,
and Captain R. E. Willis, Company F,
Moline.
What we want is cooperation and
actual support and you know without
this, preparedness legislation proposed
by the congress of the United States
will not accomplish results stated
Major Dunavin. How many Of the
heads of manufacturing establish
ments and business houses in Rock
Island, Moline and Davenport actually
take this preparedness issue and
study it out or even think what 1t
means. Too many of them think that
it only means additional appropriation
from the government for buildings,
factories and ammunition plants
which would bring more people to this
community. To me preparedness
means that each and every American
citizen should in some way do his in
dividual part toward Strengthening
this country's defenses
Should Encourage Enlistment
Too many want one thing or anoth-
err Some want ammunition factories,
and others a big army and no nation
al guard or ammunition. But what ]
want to talk about is the national
guard and it's possibilities. Any guard
bill that may be passed only gives the
country legal sanction for the creation
of military force worthy of the name
and to create this force requires years
of hard work and will demand the uni
ted effort Of all. Young men eligible
for service must be encouraged in
stead Of discouraged by older men
and employees. One writer estimates
that should each state furnish its pro
portionate quota, Illinois would have
to have $4,000 militiamen. This would
be an increase of 10000 and surely &c
accomplish this would mean united
effort
THE newspapers are the sole means
Of reaching the people with these
facts and can do mountains of goOC

their efforts. Figuring that the off

BIG OVATION.
COMPANY HI AND BAND. ARRIVED HOME
AMID CHEERS AND .MUSIC---SEVERAL
THOUSAND PEOPLE WERE OF. HAND
TO GREET THEM-CITY DECORATED

Several thousand people stood in a
drizzling rain for about two hours at
the railroad, this city, Saturday even
! ing to greet Company Fl and the First
Regiment Band as they came in from
Baltimore, after an absence OF four
and one-half months on the border.
Concerts were given by the Boy Scout
and Carrollton Bands before the spec1-
al came rolling in. The music put
life in the crowd and kept them keyed
up to the highest pitch, when the word
was given out at 6 o'clock that the
train was coming into the station the
bells of the Westminster Fire Com
pany and Grace Lutheran church were
rung, while the crowd WhOoped 1t up
for Vengeance The cheering could be
heard from one end of the town to the
other.
When the train stopped the Company
and Band came from the coaches on
West Main street side where they
formed a line. When the word was
given to march the band struck up the
popular march, The Old Gray Mare"
and marched up West Main street,
followed by Company H, Boy Scout
Band, Westminster Fire Company,
Junior Order Drum Corps, Carrollton
Band and several hundred citizens to
the Forks of the Road, where they
turned and marched back to the
Armory, and were dismissed after an
address of welcome by Mr.. John Mil
ton Reifsnider.
There were never more happier mo-
ments, when the fathers, mothers, sis
tiers, brothers and sweethearts met
their loved ones in the company and
band. Such a reception was never our
experience. 1t made one feel sorry
that he was not soldier boy. 1t
made the heart of every person present
jump for joy to have our boys at home
again, after that sad goodbye when
they departed for the border.
Every member of the Company and
Band have brought home souvenirs
from Mexico as a remembrance OF
their trip. One soldier boy said: Il
don't need any souvenir to remember
my visit to Mexico" Nearly every
one said they were pleased with the
trip and experience but they want no
more of it.
Cheer after cheer was given the
men in line by the crowd that lined
the side walks as they marched by.
Many business places and residences
were decorated, which made the city
look like when a carnival was held.

Feed Vegetables Several Times

For years hundreds of successful
truck-growers have been making one,
two or even more applications of fer
tlizer on crops each year with profit.
The method gains favor because it is
a money-maker. Sweet corn, beans,
cabbage, tomatoes and host of other
crops benefit greatly by this practice
Apply with cultivator attachment,
five-hole grain drill or fertilizer bugle.
If crops are slow in starting use a
fertilizer containing more than l to 2
per cent ammonia To hasten matur-
ity and to improve quality, use a fer
tilizer containing s to Il per cent
phosp horic acid. If soil is muck, or if
for root crop, apply fertilizer con-
tanning more than 2 per cent potash.

Minor Hurts Ouickly..Relieved
by Sloan'S Liniment.

1t is the very nature of children to
hurt themselves-to come crying to
mother with little fingers bruised, with
heads bumped, with sprained ankles
and wrists.
They are painful hurts, too. But
their pain and sting cans survive the
gentle use of this liniment. A single
application of Sloan's Liniment and
the little fellows bravely kept back
tears give way to smiles. His hurt is
relieved.
In every home where there are chill
dren a bottle of Sloan's Liniment is
necessity.
Aching muscles, rheumatism, lum-
bago, stiff neck, backache, chilblains,
ETC., can be effectively relieved with
Sloan's Liniment. Cleaner than mus
sy ointments or plasters.
Sloan's Liniment can be obtained at
all drug stores, Csc, SOC. and $1.00.
