Presbyterians To Have
Sunday School Building

A building especially adapted for
Sunday school purposes will be erected
this spring by the Presbyterian church
on the church property on the north
adjoining the main building The esti.
mated cost is between $4,000 and $4,000.
This was decided at the annual meeting
held last evening.
The report of the financial commit
tee was more like that of a prosperous
corporation rather than that of a
church organization from the fact that
the church has $500 in the treasury, the
Ladies Aid society of the church re-
ports $ll00 on hand and the treasurer
reports that the church does not owe
a dollar. During the past year the
church has raised $500. OF this am
cunt $500 is for congregational ex-
penses. The policy Of the church diff
fers materially from others from the
fact that the church never goes in debt
for any building and at present owes
nothing.
At the meeting last evening the
Adelphian class of boys numbering SO
presented the church with two silver
cups won at the Boys State Conference
for having the best attendance during
the year and for the largest increase
in membership.
Three elders, c. D. Purdy t. A.
Rinehart and A. 0. Condit were re.
elected The new elders for the coming
year are DR.. Samuel Bowman, O. +.
Hogue and Ellis Purvine. Glenn Niles
was elected deacon and w. II. Steusloff
succeeds himself as trustee.
The membership of the church now
is GAL. During the past year the mem
bership has increased 81.

The latest style in the way of a sur

prise party is to take the party who is
to be surprised to her home, bound and
gagged. This amount of movie picture
stuff is not necessary if the party to
be surprised will 60 home peacefully.
But in case the surprisee refuses to be
surprised by the surprisors, then the
movie picture stuff becomes nece-
ssity. What we intended to say was
that last evening about 6;15 o'clock,
Miss Alice Lnpton, department man
ager Of the Meyers store, was bound
and gagged by the young ladies of the
store, placed in high-powered ear,
and whirled to her home, where the
surprisors were duly waiting. 1t seems
that Miss Lupton wasn' It quite ready
to 90 home, and the surprise party
couldn't be carried out as she was the
one TO be surprised the prime movers
found it necessary to put on the movie
stunt, with Miss Lupton as the unwill-
ing heroine. Like all exciting movie
films, the party passed off lovely and
Miss Lupton has forgiven and forgot
ten the first reel Of the eveniI-s Is en-
tertainment.

U-BOATS DEFEATED
 IN TWO SEA FIGHTS
AMERICAN NAVAL GUNNERS DROVE OFF ONE SUBMARINE
 BRITISH SANK THE SECOND.

An Atlantic Port-Members of the crew of a British steamer which ar rived here reported having sunk an attacking German submarine The British vessel sent shell into the submarines magazine, causing an eX- plosion which parted the undersea boat about midships. Each end sank separately. The British steamer was uninjured
 The submarine was five miles dis tant and running away after having attacked the Britisher nearly 400 miles off the coast of Ireland.
 According to the story told by a gunner of the British steamer, the submarine was first seen when she sent shell at the steamer from a distance of about 5000 yards Is fell short and the steamer immediately was swung around so that her stern was toward the U-boat, getting the naNaI gun at work Eleven shots were fired in rapid succession and each struck very close to the German.
 "The Germans were using their two guns, fore and aft. while we had only one, but the shells were falling short and he started to run, said the Brit ish gunner. q followed him with shell and the twelfth struck just abaft the periseope
 "We could all see the boat break in half and go down. disappearing within a few minutes. I sent four more shots into the water at the spot where she disappeared.
 At the same time our battle was going on the wireless operator picked up the call of Gan American vessel that arrived at an Atlantic por0 and also caught message that another American ship had been torpedoed and was sinking. The message said that the German was firing on the life boats That vessel was about 30 miles to the south of us and I do not know how they made out.
 The steamers captain and other of ficers would not discuss the battle, but confirmation of the gunner's story was obtained from other members of the crew.

USE OF F0ODSTUFFS
 FOR LIQUOR BARRED
ACTION IS TAKEN BY HOUSE IN COMMITTEE OF WHoLE-oP-
 PONENTS FIGHT TO END.

Washington.-Pro regula- tions of sweeping character were written into the administration food control bill by the House.
 After several hours of parliamen- tary sparring, during which the pro hibitory proposals were thrown out repeatedly on points of order, the pro- hibition element got the upper hand and forced adoption of amendments which would forbid the use of any foodstuffs during the war for making intoxicants and would give the presi- dent authority to take over, in hls discretion, all stocks of distilled li- quors.
 Then the House settled down to a long night session, with the prospect that final vote on the bill might be taken some time between midnight and morning. The leaders were de- termined to vote before adjournment.
 Action on the prohibition amend ments was taken in committee of the whole, and opponents of the proposals immediately began mastering their forces for a reconsideration when the bill comes up for final discussion in the House proper.
 Should the proposals finally survive in the House, a fight will be made on them in the Senate, although much prohibition sentiment has been appar- ent there, and equally farreaching amendments are pending.
 The amendment designed to cut off manufacture of liquors was adopted, 132 to 114 It was submitted by Rep resentative Barkley of Kentucky (Democrat), and would provide that no food, food material or feed could be used during the war for the manu- fracture of alcohol or alcoholic beyer- ages except for governmental, indus trial, scientific, medicinal or sacra- mental purposes.
 It is provided that any person who wilfully violates the section shall, upon conviction thereof, be punished by a fine not exceeding $5,OOO or by imprisonment for not more than two years, or both.
