LOCAL BOARDS MAY
REOPEN DRAFT CASES

Additional powers were conferred
upon local draft boards in the new
set of regulations announced by Pro-
vost Marshal General Crowder in
Washington Monday. Under these
lecal boards may. when
convinced that a man drawn for army
service has a logical cause for exemp-
tion, reopen the case on their own in
itiative and revoke the former action.
Under the old rules when mans
name was once certified to the district
board, the local boards had no further
discretion in the case but an appeal
had to be made to the district board.
If the drafted man had already enter
ed the service, he can be released on
orders Of the army adjutant general
on recommendation of the local draft
board.
Another ruling handed down provid-
es that thousands of aliens who reg
istered for the draft June 5 who since
that date have declared their inten-
tions to become citizens, are subject to
draft.

CHANGE PULPlTS ON
LAUNCHING SUNDAY

On October 21, to be known by the
All-Ohio Educational Jubilee as
Launching Sunday" every Methodist
pulpit in the state will be occupied by
pastor from some other church Of
the same denomination. Launching
Sunday" marks the inauguration Of
the campaign in this state to raise
$2,900,0O0 among the 100000 Metho-
dists Of Ohio, for application to Meth
odist educational funds.
The campaign closes Dec. 20. The
plan for an Interchange Of pulpits on
hLaunching Sunday has been evolved
by the Educational Jubilee on the
theory that there is something psyche
logical in new face; that it is more
difficult for a pastor to make an ap-
peal, the character Of this, to his own
flock than it would be for a strange
clergyman TO outline the same plan.
in cities, the pastor Of one Methodist
charge will take the pulpit Of one Of
the denomination's churches in his own
city. Country charges will be supplied
from the pulpit Of q church in the
Same county Or community.

PRESIDENT TO GREET
OHIO PRIZE WINNERS

President Wilson will receive the
1 200 youngsters and others who will
go to Washington on the Corn Boys
Special in December. Word to that
effect has been sent to Senator Pom
creme and forwarded to officials of the
College of Agriculture.
Although it has been the custom for
the president to meet the Ohio boys
and girls on their prize tour to Wash
ington and the great cities of the East
doubt has been expressed whether or
not the president would be willing to
pledge himself to do so this year. But
a letter to Senator Pomerene by Jas.
Tumulty, secretary to President Will
son, states the latter will be glad to re-
ceive the boys and girls at 2 o'clock
Tuesday afternoon, Dec. A at the ex-
ecutive offices.
Meeting the president will be the
high spot in the entire trip for every
boy and girl in the party who has not
met him before. They are lucky to
get his consent to see them at all in
these critical times when his time is SO
fully occupied with questions of grave
Importance to our beloved country.
The fact that the president will
meet the lads and lassies in the exc
cutive Offices gives the impression that
he expects to shake hands with every
member Of the party. The hand shak
ing. in the past has been one of the
most popular and long remembered in
cidents of the trips with the young
sters, and the prospect Of greeting the
president personally at this time is al
ready exciting keen interest among the
several hundred prize winners.

WILL CuRE NOT PUNISH

Alpheus Jarvis, %, of Wadsworth,
convicted last week in Probate Court
Of having contributed to the delinquen
cy Of Gladys Secor, IA. also Of Wads-
worth, and who was given nSindeter-
inmate sentence to the Mansfield re-
formatory, will probably spend time
at the home for ,epileptics at Gallipo-
lis, instead.
His infrmity was not known to the
authorities at the time Of his convic-
tion, in fact not until the following
night, when he threw a genuine fit in
his cell at the jail and nearly scared
the other inmates to death. Whenhe
recovered from the paroxysm, Jarvis
explained to Sheriff Gehman that he
was a victim Of the falling sickness,
and had been discharged from the
army on that account. He served
with the national army in the Mexi-
can border campaign. AS soon as
word is received that there is room for
Jarvis at the Gallipolis sanitariun, the
criminal charge against him will be
annulied and he will be transferred to
the latter institution.
The Secor grill, who confessed her
delinquency, was taken to the Girls
Industrial Home at Delaware by Sher.

SUDDEN DEATH OF
SYDNEY HERMAN

Cleveland papers Of Tuesday carried
a notice Of the sudden death on Mon

man Of 1927 Amesbury avenue.
Mr.. HERMAN served as superinten-
dent of the Medina schools from 1882
to 1885, being succeeded by J. r. Ken
nan. Those with whom we have con-
versed who remember Mr.. HERMAN
state that his work as superintendent
here was marked with efficiency, and
that as man he was held by the
school and community in the highest
esteem. When through with school
work in Medina he engaged in the in
Esurance business, with headquarters
here for more than year, when he
went to Cleveland, remaining there the
rest Of his life. He is survived by a
widow and two children. We under
stand that he has no relatives in Ne
dina, though Miss Mary Kinball is a
cousin of Mrs. Herman. The de-
ceased was about II years OF age.
Funeral was held fApm the home, and
burial will be made in Spring Grove
