SIX LOCAL BOYS CALLED
TO NEXT OFFICERS CAMP

Mt. Sterling Jared well in the next
Officers Reserve Camp, which starts
at Fort Benjamin Harrison Monday,
Aug. 9th. Five local boys, c. T.
Coleman, H. w. Lockridge, S. d,
Gay, Tom Hamilton and Ollie Nc
Clure have received calls to report
on the above mentioned date. Mr..
Ratliff H. Lane received an alter
nate call and he is almost sure to
get in the camp also. The gentle
men are all high class young fellows
in every particular and represent
the flower of Montgomery's young
manhood, and we predict and con-
fidently believe, they will all make
an enviable record.

NO CONTESTS
TO Be FILED
Report of Contemplated Contests
Prove Unfounded, as Time
Has Elapsed.

Since the recent primary reports
have been IN circulation to the eff
feet that one or more contests might
be filed, such action being predicted
on the part of Mr.. Richard p. VIM,
defeated candidate for Sheriff, and
limited at in one other race.
Under the law any person desiring
to file contest must serve notice
of contest upon the successful can
didate within five days from the
time the Election Commissioners
shall have awarded the certificate
of nomination to such successful
candidate. The Commissioners met
last Tuesday as was required by the
statute and issued certificates to the
winners. 1t will therefore be seen
that the time in which a contest
can be filed has expired.

MISS DUTY BECOMES BRIDE

Miss Mary Lyle Duty, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Bruce p. Duty, of
this city, surprised her many friends
and relatives here Saturday when
she was married to Mr.. George
Stapleton, the wedding ceremony be-
ing performed at the Methodist
church parsonage in the Clark
county capital. Mr.. Phelps Renick,
Mrs. Scott Renick and young niece,
Princie Maphet, and Mrs. G.. w.
Banks were present for the cere-
mony.
The bride wore stylish blue
tailored suit, with stunning hat to
iurmonize, and made a dainty and
attractive appearance. She is a
twin sister of Mrs. Phelps Renick,
of Winchester and is one of the most
attractive and charming girls in the
Bluegrass and has host of friends
here who will be interested to learn
of her marriage, and who will join
us in extending hearty congratula-
tons and best wishes.
Mr.. Stapleton is the only son of
DIR. and Mrs. J. w. Stapleton, of
Winchester, and is a member Of a
prominent family. He has a pleas
ing personality, and is popular with
everybody.
After the ceremony, Mr.. and Mrs,
Stapleton left in a motor car for
Louisville, being accompanied by
Mr. Phelps Renick, to see the
brides sister, Mrs. Renick, who is
ill in hospital there. They will re-
turn to Winchester Tuesday, and
will make their home in that city.

Frank o. MacNeill, of Winchester,
who was engaged to teach in the
City High School, has been accept
ed for the second Officers Training
Camp at Fort Benjamin Harrison
and has notified Superintendent Hop
per of that fact. His successor has
not yet been chosen.

LOCAL BOYS GET
COMMISSIONS
All Four Of Mt. SterIlng's Repre-.
sentatives at Fl. Benz. Harrison
Receive Commissions.

The Mt. Sterling boys at Fort
Benjamin Harrison who attended
the first officers training camp, GER
tainly did themselves proud and
were recognized by the military au-
thorities in charge as being young
men Of superior qualifications, and
of the four who attended from this
city every one received a commits
sion. Mr.. William French, son of
Judge and Mrs. III. Il. French, who
has been engaged in a bank at
Frankfort for the past several
years, headed the list of local
candidates and was commissioned a
First Lieutenant in the National
Army. Mr. Thomas Grubbs, son Of
Hon. and Mrs. Chas. D. Grubbs, who
has been attending the University of
Kentucky at Lexington for the past
several years, was named Second
Lieutenant in the Infantry. Mr..
Stanley Brown, son of Mrs. Martin
Brown, was commissioned Second
Lieutenant in the Quartermasters'
Department, and was sent to Chica-
go, where he will take another
months training, and at the end of
such time it is quite likely he will
receive a higher commission. Mr..
Samuel Mccormick, son of Judge
and Mrs. G. A. Mccormick, who
has been engaged in the lumber
business in Lexington for the past
several years, was also given
Second Lieutenancy. Mr.. L. V.
Morrell, a tobacco man from North
Carolina, was the only man register
ed from this city who failed to re-
ceive commission.
Mt. Sterling and Montgomery
county are indeed proud of the
splendid record made by her de-
serving sons, and the Advocate
takes this opportunity to congratu-
late each one, and we desire them
to know their future records will he
watched with much interest.

FINGER ACCIDENTALLY
SHOT OFF

Walter Curtis, son Of Joel Curtis,
had. his initial finger on his right
hand shot off while hunting squirrels
at his home near Judy Sunday morn
ing. The wound was dressed by DIR.
J. f. Lockhart and the young man
is getting along nicely. Just how
the accident occurred is not def
nitely known-but the rumor that
the occurrence was Intentional is
without foundation.

Clearwater Company

G. w. Suppiger received word today
from Boise that the supreme court had
offirmed the decision of Judge Steele
of the district court, quieting the
title in Julia McKeehan, plaintiff in
the case of McKeehan VS.. Vollmer-

plaintiff alleging that her. husband
bod confessed judgment in favor of the
Vollmer-Clearwater company without
her knowledge, and further declared
that the property was her own sep
arate property, bought by her own
money. Manager F. NJ Green of the
VollmerClearwate company was al
legged to have attached the land on a
second claim, later advertising the
land for sale under the first judgment.
The case has been in the courts for
four years and has been closely con-
tested. Mrs. Mckeehan was repre-
sented by G. w. Suppigers and Marion
T. Curry of this city, who at the time
of the institution of the suit were in
legal partnership.

THIS GERMAN READY
TO SHOULDER HIS GUN
Native of Germany Listed as an Alien
Enemy and Yet He is Ready to
Fight for America

SPOKANE-Henry w. F. Homeyer,
round-faced native of Germany, is
willing to fight against his own kin.
He registered under the selective
service act and did not claim ex-
emption.
He has taken out his first citizen
ship papers and maintains he is an
American first, a German second.
Yet, Homeyer today is registered
as an alien enemy at the courthouse
here and carried permit so that he
may go within the barred zone which
has been created around arnEories,
forts and other federal reservations.
Homeyer's case is one of dozens in
which Spokane Germans have been
forced to get these federal permits
although their loyalty is unquestion-
ed
Such is the law and they submit
without complaint
