Mr.. and Mrs. Ben Bear leave to-
night for Los Angeles, Cal, where
they will spend month visiting with
old friends. They will also visit San
Francisco and few other cities OF
interest on the coast. Mr.. Bear has
been in business in DEBORAH for for
ty years, and it has been very sell
dom that we have ever chronicled
his departure on pleasure trip, and
we believe it has been twenty-five
years since ne and Mrs. Bear left De-
corah on such trip, and that was
to Hohebach, Wurtemberg, Germany,
where Mr.. Bear was born, and the
trip was on visit to his parents, AMI
scenes of his boyhood days. But that
is not saying that Mr.. Bear has not
been out of the city in that length Of
time, as twice each year of the forty
years he has been in business here he
has made semi-annual buying trips
to New York city, and just returned
last week from his eiglty-second
trip. But those trips are purely
business. Likewise Mrs. Bear has
not made it point to make any ex-
tensiye trips, as she is homebody,
and loves her home. aud has lived to
make the heartstone place of cheer
and comfort for the husband and
children and her friends here, who
are legion. Consequently, we think
this we'll known couple are entitled
to a little recreation, and we bespeak
for them a pleasant trip to sunny
California, and a safe return home.

GEO. BAKER WINS HoNORs.
Given Third Position i'm State by
Lawn Tennis Ranking
Committee.

George A. Baker, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. G. F. Baker. of this city, is one
of Iowa's best lawn tennis players,
and the fact is ne is nearly on top OF
the list, as he drew third position in
the ranking, made by committee of
the Iowa Lawn Tennis Association,
which announced it's decisions last
week. Fred Bradley was placed at
No. 1 and Joe G. Van Ginkel, No.
2.
Geo. Baker and Paul G. White,
winners of the state doubles title are
placed at No. in the doubles rank
ing. with o. ]. Sweet and B. o. NJ.
Bonebrake second.
Bradley was given first honors in
the singles by general consent, not
withstanding his defeat by Van Gin
KEEL in the state meet because of his
fine showing at Grinnell, where he
won the championship in field IN
which nine of the 16 ranking play
ers of 1916 were entered.
Van Cinkels work in the state
meet in which he was defeated IN
the finals by William Adams of Oma-
ha, earned him No. 2. George Baker
who is third, was runner-up at the
Grinnell meet and was beaten in the
state tourney by Adams, who later
defeated Van Ginkel. Baker played
great tennis throughout both meets.
The Des Moines Register states
that Baker and White undoubtedly
deserve No. / in the doubles and the
committees finding will not be dis
puted by anyone who followed the

The Goodyear tire factory is the
most wonderful manufacturing plant

On inspecting the plant from one
end to the other-watching experts
making tires from the beginning to
the finished tire, it was easy for me
to believe, when told, that this il
the largest tire factory in the world.
but it was difficult to grasp the 8g
ures tossed at me by my friend Mr..
Bethel, who took me through; thir-
ty-five thousand finished tires a
day, and i don't dare tell you the
number of tubes, for you never
would believe me.
| have had a hand in the making
of few of these tires for several
days now, but will admit 1t is
thousand times easier to sell them
than to make them.
i find this work very interesting

Is it any wonder that in free
America we feel the awful response
bility resting upon our shoulders
the united effort we are making to
check the inhuman and needless
sacrifice. In the annals of ancient
nor modern history it has no equal,
but there will be an accounting for
all this. The price will be paid. A
just avenger, whose infinite wisdom
passes all understanding, has his
ever watchful eye on the kaiser and
the sultan and no man knoweth
when the son of man cometh, for
vengeance is mine" saith the Lord,
and I will repay. And swift and
sure retribution will follow in the
wake of the cruel and selfish insti-
gators of all this terrible calamity.
