This is war of machinery and the
United States should at least be pre-
pared In this respect.

the staunchness, the efficiency and
the capacity of the German people. We

lieve the United States flag should

I'VE must back the president and
congress in every preparedness meas
ure which is proposed. Our fighting
equipment is deplorably inadequate
and incomplete"
DR.. Hamilton gave many interesting
sidelights on the ruthlessness of the
war waged by the German nation.
With this country, he stated, the main
thing is to get results no matter how
many lives are lost in attaining these.
Men are sent into battle without re-
gard for their lives if an end is in
view.
AS an illustration of the tremendous
preparedness of the Teutons, DR.. Ham
ilton cited the fact that, in the Ger
man-Russian struggle, the former ma
ton sent one high-powered shell into
the Russian line for every 10 men
contained in the latter.
Many anecdotes and experiences
were brought forth by DR.. Hamilton
for the benefit of an audience which
enjoyed his talk, punctuated as it was
by natural wit and humor, to the
highest degree.
DR. n. r. Eastman, who secured DR.
Hamilton for the evening, made the
speech of Introduction.

ISN'T IT nice
TO BE so UNSELFISH AS THIS
BUTLER MAN?

Says the Butler correspondent OF
the Mansfield Shield:
An effort is being put forth by the
business men of our neighboring viii
lage to induce one of our best manu-
featuring plants to move to THAT
place. Great pressure is being brought
to bear, and all kinds of flattering Of
fers are being made to attract the
enterprise, and should, the factory ac-
cept the tempting offers, which is
probable, Butler stands to lose eight
families of the men employed there.
Bellville has been on the lookout for
some time for factory of some kind,
and, not having single industry en-
ploying men except saw-mill, the
foundry now under construction will
liven up the village to some extent
What is Buffers loss is Bellville's
gain. Butler still has some factories
employing men, and should not be
selfish with her Industries, when our
neighbor so badly needs something
of the kind, which she is in a fair
way to secure.

Kenyon Students, At Mid

A Little
DRAW UP A MEMORIAL
Claim Three-Fourths OF College Al.
fllcted With CoIds-Decide Fin.
ally To Negotiate With
Authorities Through
Proper Committee

Gambler, Jan. 1S-1t may be all
right for the girls in some of the east
ern schools to do all of their studying
out-of-doors, even in the coolest win
ter, but the same cant be done in the
institution of learning located in these
parts, according to Kenyon college
students who, on the verge of an
open rebellion and strike for several
days, have finally entered into nego-
tiations with the college authorities.
through their assembly committee
the dormitory-to supply little more
heat for the buildings in which they
are forced to sit while attempting 70
drink in little knowledge.
Recently the college ordered all
heat shut off at II o'clock at night.
Students, some of them, grumbled but
the situation was not deemed sufFic-
iently serious to take any decided &C.
J tion-
Within the past week. the heat has
been turned off, not at II o'clock, 5Gt
between 9 O'clock and $50.
Result-Three-fou of the stu.
dent body is afflicted with colds, some
of which have developed into the
grip.
Studying is made impossible after
10 o'clock at night on account of the
exceedingly frigid state of the rooms.
In the morning, it is also impos-
sible-at least for several hours-as
the heat is not turned on until a. m.
/ and circulates slowly.
Near the midnight hour Tuesday, a
! shivering group of students gathered
in Philo hall. Some of the more ey-
citable were for declaring a state of
war, journeying to Mt. Vernon and
throwing up trenches there; all were
| for immediate relief.
The gathering was thoroughly rep
resentative and, when calmness had
been restored, serious consideration
was given to the problem of how best
! to secure heat
The more sober-minded recognized
that, although the action of the col
lege authorities was merely to re-
trench, at the same time its applica-
tion was positive harm to the health
of the students, as we'll as an impair
ment to their scholastic work.
Drastic measures were deemed nee,
essary.
A memorial was drawn up, outlin-
ing the demands of the students for
heat and 1t was agreed to present the
same to President Peirce immediate
ly after chapel services yesterday
morning
DR.. Peirce was forced to go to Co
lumbus and announced that he could
not see the students until the even
ing.
Again the radical wing of students
urged an immediate strike, journey
to Mt Vernon and-heat. Again this
group was subdued and an agreement
made to meet DR.. Peirce last night
at Z O'clock.
further complaint of the students
is that they are subjected to a fine
of 25 cents a night if lights are left
burning in the rooms. Formerly these
lights-which furnish a good bit OF
heat-could be burned all night.

Thirty-three physicians of the coun-
ty, together with especally-inrited
friends, dined together Wednesday ev-
ening at the Hotel Curtis, casting aside
pill-cases for a night of social inter
course and mutual enjoyment.
A splendid dinner was served under
the personal supervision of Landlord
Warner during which a spirit of in
formality and joviality reigned. The
following were registered: DIR. j, II.
Norrick, Charles Fink DR.. w. H. East
man, and DR.. e. V. Alderman of Fred
ericktown, DR.. John r. Claypool, DR..
j. NJ. Pumphrey, DR.. H. w. Blair, DR.,

Blake, DIR. L. B. Walton and Prof. G. F.
Weida of Gambler, DR.. j. w. Kelly of
Bellville and DR.. Edwin A. Hamilton of
Columbus.
Following the repast, number of
citizens entered the banquet hall and,
in company with the physicians and
their guests, enjoyed thoroughly a
most edifying and enlightening ad-
dress by DR.. Edwin A. Hamilton, army
surgeon in Germany, France and on
the Mexican border.
! Beneath all that DR.. Hamilton said,
there was a note of warning which
contained in it a message to the Unit
| ed States to prepare for a possible
conflict. DIR. Hamilton is intimately
acquainted with war conditions and
although not venturing prediction
that this country would be drawn into
what has become almost worldwide
war, at the same time left the impress
sion that such was more than possible.
DR.. Hamilton went to Germany with
the American Red Cross as field sur.
geon. His experiences there were
most vivid. He was situated in south
eastern part of Prussia near the Rus
sian border. His work brought him
into cantact with soldiers wounded in
the great drives of Won Mackensen
and Hindenberg on the Russian front
during the summer of 1915.
The work of the American Red
Cross is held in high esteem by the
Germans according to DR. Hamilton
This work knows no partisanship as
two units of service have been sent
to every nation engaged in the war
1t is a proud chapter in American
history that such service has beer
rendered.
DR.. Hamilton said in part:
"The ambitions of Germany arr
worldwide. They know no confines
The nation has catholic conception
of its duty to humanity. Its aspira
tions are not confined by any CONT
nent or hemisphere, but are universal
"In view of this, Americans shoul'
cease to trust feather-dusters, ball
bats or brick-bats. Our military pre-
paredness is a matter for the serious
consideration of every American citi
zen who desires to see democracy pei
petuated.
