"One man that I have had deal

that he had more help than he

IceleSs Refrigerator.

Refrigerators can be made to do
their part in conserving food this
summer. Preserving milk, butter,
and other supplies and keeping left
overs and unusued portions until
they are needed will be their serv-
ice. If ice is not obtainable, an ice
less refrigerator cooled by evapo-
ration, can be easily constructed.
Women demonstrators in extension
work south, of the United States
department Of agriculture, tell how
to make such a cooler at a small
cost.
This refrigerator consists of
wooden frame, covered with canton
hanel, burlap or heavy duck. 1t is
desirable that the frame be screened
although il is not necessary. Wicks
made of the same material as the
covering. resting in a pan of water
on top OF the cooler, conduct the
water over the sides and ends of the
pan and allow it to seeL down the
sides of the box. The evaporation
from this moistened covering causes
a lower temperature inside. On dry,

build it.:

ator is TO be used indoors, have the
whole thing standing in a large par
to catch any drip. The pans and
case may be painted white, allowed
to dry, and then enameled. A Gov
ering of white canton flannel should
be made TO fit the frame. Have the
smooth side out and button the Gov
ering on the frame with buggy OF

PROF. Cancer ELECTED SUPT

The trustees OF the Stanford High
and Graded School, at their meeting
Wednesday night, elected Prof. M. l..
Cancer, superintendent for the next
scholastic year to succeed Prof. w.
C. Wilson, who did not stand for re-
election. Prof. Cancer, who is now
teaching in the high school at Rich
mond, was superintendent of the
Lancaster High and Graded School
several years ago. He comes highly
recommended both as a teacher and
gentleman and will be welcomed
to Stanford. 1t is source of general
regret, however, that Prof. Wilson
will not be with the school again. His
work has been of high order and he
has made legion of friends during
his soiourn here. Wherever he and
Mrs. Wilson locate their good wishes
will be with them. Miss Ellen Ballou,
who has had charge of the instrument
tai music department of the school
for a long time, was elected again, to
the delight of everybody, and Miss
Elizabeth Higgins, who has taken
care of the vocal end, will serve in
that capacity again, patrons o.. the
school and her many friends will be
glad to know. The First National
Bank was elected treasurer of the
school, paying $125 for the privilege.
The Lincoln County National Banks
bid was $105.

FROM SON TO FATHER

The following letter was received
by Col. C. r. Coleman, of this city,
from his son, Harris Coleman, who
is a student at the University Of Viz
ginia. The letter is clipped from the
Courier-Journal:
My Dear Father: Excuse this pa
per as it is all have. am sorry that
you and mother are so stirred up, but
| am also myself. You misunderstood
Thomas letter entirely.
want to try to show you how
feel. In the first place, if there is GO
ing to be any conflict on the part of
this country, /. e., any tests at arms,
well / am going to be there. | know
full well how you feel about it, and
if had son / am sure | would feel
the same way. But there is my point.
Regardless of how we got into this
fight, that is immaterial, the fact
alone remains that we are in it, and
as a citizen who lives and cherishes
the glory and honor and liberty hand
ed down to us by our forefathers |
can to carry on these things which
they fought and died for, and come
down to the last analysis we are in
a way fighting for our liberty, for
sure as fate the ENABLED fist" had us
in line for the next victim when she
would have conquered Europe. So l
can't see that it is a question of per-
sonal convenience and safety. 1t is
far above that.
Secondly, as an enlightened youth
who ewes it to his education to set
the example to those not so FORUM
ate as he is, if he does not set such
an example where in the world is it
coming from?
Lastly, something is due posterity.
So when person grows older and
perhaps be so fortunate as to be the
father of children and they doubtless
would want to know if their parent
had fiinched when the trial came, and
picture the disappointment when
they should discover that he had
failed in an hour of trial. l should
think that a fellow had rather be
dead. will tell you if this thing
amounts to anything and a fellow
don't go he is going to be spending
the rest of his life telling why he did
not go.
So that's my situation now. What
| am planning now is this: think /
will take the regular army examina-
tons for first lieutenant. Situated
as | am, with college degree, | can
pass the examinations all right /
think. | have thought it out and think
this is the best thing to do. The ex-
are in July some time and
| will be able to see you and talk it
over with you before then, and by
that time | can tell what is going to
happen, for if there is going to be
peace it will be before July IS, ard
if not then there is not telling the du-
ration of the war.
Now please don't write and dis

HOP STANDS CLOSED UP

w. A. Harvey and Matt Martin,
proprietors of the soft drink houses
on Depot street. were tried before a
Jury in Judge r. l.. DavisOn's court
Tuesday afternoon on the charge Of
selling an Intoxicating decoction to
a young man named Afford from the
Southern End of the county. The
man claimed that he had taken
nothing stronger than the hops or
near-beer sold at those places, but
admitted that it had made him
drunk, and Judge Dawson and others
had seen him in drunken condition.
The jury hung, standing four to two
for conviction. The four were for
irving the soft drink men the limit
the other two were
willing to meet them with small
fine. No compromise could be effect
ed, however, and the jury was dis
charged. Both Messrs. Harvey and
Martin expressed surprise at their
drinks causing drunkenness and
euade a proposition to City Attorney
Ssiii that they would Quit selling
hops, or whatever the drink is, If the
cases were dropped and the money
they had paid for license were re-
funded to them. This was agreed to
and Mr.. Martin shut up shop at once
and Mr.. Harvey stopped the sale
forthwith. The latter's place will re-
main open as pool room and eat
ing house but no more of the near
beer stuff will be permitted to go
over the counter. This clears Stan
ford of such places and it is hoped
that officers will have better oppor-
tunity to apprehend the boOtleggers
and others who deal in the fluid that
the people have said in laundering
tones that they do not want sold in
Lincoln county. Martins license was
almost out and Harney's expires
about August l.

LATEST WAR NEWS

After their customary terrific ar
tiilery preparation, in which guns of
all calibers were used, the British
along the entire front surged for
ward in the early hours of the morn
ing and throughout Thursday in the
bright spring sunshine were at grips
with the enemy.
Nightfall found the British well in
possession of several points of van
tage, which they had captured in the
face of most stubborn resistance, and
held with whitening fire of machine
guns and rifles against powerful
counter attacks.
Berlin asserts that the British at
tempt to break through the German
line failed under heavy casualties.
The British War Office makes no
claim that the troops of Field Mar
shall Haig pierced the German front,
but it does assert that west of Quenat
the enemy lines were penetrated and
the village of Fresnoy taken.
That Germany's submarine arm,
not her military arm, is the menace
which for the moment is greatest for
the future welfare of the United
States and the Entente Allies is rec
ognized by the chancelleries of all
the Powers which are at war with
Germany.
The last days of April saw the I'M
derwater boats send to the bottom
hundreds of thousands of tons of
shipping, which means that huge
quantities of ammunition and food
stuffs, the receipt of which would
have greatly heartened Great Britain
and France, have been irretrievably
lost to them and made the pinch Of
want to those countries, their soldiers
and their people more acute.
Impetus is being given to the plans
to combat the menace by all the
countries at war with Germany, and
hopes are expressed that shortly
check may be put to the inroads of
the submarines into commerce.
Secretary Lane estimated the losses
of the past week at 100000 tons,
while the Shipping Board said 300,-
900 tons was nearer the correct fig
ure
The American steamer Rocking
ham was sunk by a German subma-
rine. One boat containing thirteen
men is missing. The steamer carried
a gun crew and cargo valued at
more than S2,000,000.
