Grafinite. which is a specially pre-

unique and wonderful qualities. It is

adhere to each other nor do they stick
to other substances OF surfaces with
which they come In contact
The many invaluable properties of
crafinitc suggested its use as . coat
ing for automobile inner tubes. Tubes
coated with grafinite are absolutely
protected from light which is one of
the chief things that detcliorate rub
Der. Sticking and friction is also elm
mated by the use Of grafiHitc coating.
II there is any friction between an in
ner tube and the casing containing It
or if the tube sticks to the casing, it
is bound to be short lived Friction is
ordinarily reduced by the use of soap
stone. 1t is absolutely prevented by a
coating of Grafinite and the use OF
powders and soap stone is therefore
rendered entirely unnecessary.

Strenuous Life for Our Soldier Boys

Strenuous Life for Our Soldier Boys.
Capt. Gross of Co. D informs the In
dependent that he can accept a few
more good men. The Company's ros-
ter is nearly filled but few men will
possibly be weeded out.
The Captain is drilling his men
three hours a day. He is not giving
them as strenuous work as they would
receive if their army shoes and other
equipment had arrived. The recruits
feet are tender and it is easy to put a
new man out of commission. During
the three hours, two in the forenoon
and one in the afternoon, the men
march about nine miles. On regular
army hike they march about three
miles in an hour, but occasionally
march four miles an hour for a short
time.
When Co. D took part in the maneu-
vers on the border last summer, they
marched 10 miles in one day and in the
II IL days marched 100 miles.
The following is the days program
for the members of Co. D:
Call-6:3O a. m.
Reville-6:40 a. m.
Assembly-6:45 a. m.
Breakfast-7:00 a. m.
Drills to 10 a. m.

Beatrice, the slX-year-oId daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. A. F. Bacon, was so
severely injured Sunday when her fin
ger ring caught on clothes line, that
the third finger of the left hand had to
be amputated The little girl was on

line. This caused her finger to carry
the entire weight of her body and the
ring stripped the flesh from the bone,
which was so badly mangled that am
