ELMER L.. COFFEEN DEAD.
Former Superintendent DEBORAH Pub.
lie Schools Passed Away
Sunday.

Elmer Lampher CoffeeI PASSED
away at his home in Westboro, Mass,
last Sunday, May 6, after long ill
ness, death being due to Bright's
disease. He had been sick for about
two years, his illness starting from
ulcers of the stomach, and grip,
which left him with the disease that
caused his death. During this time
he had two attacks of nervous pros
tration, and suffered a stroke of par
alysis on Christmas day.
The deceased was born Feb. /,
1869, in Fond du Lac county, Wis
consin, coming to DEBORAH with his
parents when little boy. He attend
ed the DEBORAH public schools and
graduated in 1884. Later he took a
course at the John Slack Business
College and also at Valparaiso, Ind.
He became a teacher, and his first
work in this line was performed with
his father, the late Prof. II, l.. COT
feen at Freeport in 1886. The fol-
lowing year he was elected superin-
tendent OF the schools at Leroy,
Mimi, and was successful in bring
ing the schools up to high standard,
remaining there two years. In 1889
he entered Carleton College at
Mortified, Mimi, graduating in
1898, and during that period taught
one year at the DEBORAH Institute. In
September 1898 he was elected SUI
perintendent of the schools of Wau-
kon, and that same year was united
in marriage to Miss Mabel Roy, at
Leroy, MINI, and two children
were born to the union, Carl Roy and
Catharine Whitford. While at Wauk-
on he was associated with Editor
Book on the Waukon Republican.
Afterwards he was superintendent
of schools in DEBORAH for four years,
at Mason City two years and Mar
shalltown one year. Since that time
he had been Superintendent of the
Lyman School, for Boys at Westboro
Mass, at which place he made high
record for himself and the school
bringing it to high standard. The
many old friends here of this well
known educator will be sorry to hear
of his death He was man who
stood high in social and educatio1a'
circles, and he was man of high
principles, whose success had beer
entirely builded upon industry and
honesty. The sympathy of many
friends is extended to the bereaved
widow, children and other relatives
in their loss.

Pen Up Your Chickens.

Some complaints are being regis
tered by people who have put in gar
uens, that their work is being des
'troyed by neighbors chickens. This
year, particularly, people should see
to it that they keep their chickens
penned up. We need the chickens
and we need the gardens, both are
very important, but chickens are poor
garden workers, and they should be
kept in their coops, and must, ac-
cOrding to law.

Wore Mismated Shoes.

a Washington woman was about
to retire one evening when she casu-
ally glanced at her feet and was per-
fectly Mortified to find she had been
wearing one button and one laced
shoe all afternoon. She had been on
the street all afternoon and her
dresses were not long either. Anoth-
er dressed for party in a rush, put
on her beautiful SO shoes in rush
and started. When she reached the
street, she thought: For goodness
sake do / have bunions, and not
know it," Somehow her feet didn't
seem to track right and she discov-
cred that she was wearing the right
shoe on the left foot and vice versa.
She was very late to the card party,
and she didn't have the nerve to eX-
plain Washington Democrat.

the boards which examine them
but of these, only $500 may attend.
Accordingly, the DEBORAH men who
are selected will, upon receipt of no
tice from the Camp Commander,
start for camp.
Some of the local applicants have
not yet been examined, and there
will, no doubt, be more names to be
added to the above list.

Want Doctors fer Medical Depart
Dnpnt

DR.. A. ]. Swezey, of this city,
chairman Of the auxiliary medical de-
partment committee of Winneshiek
county, received a letter yesterday
from the National Department, re-
questing him to call medical meet
ing and get every doctor to sign up.
Recently Drs. Swezey, Thomas, Hex
ON, Jewell, of DEBORAH, and Hennes-
sey, of Calmar, signed up. The doc
tors held meeting at the Winneshiek
last Wednesday evening, and the
matter was discussed, but no others
have enlisted as yet. A great many
doctors seem to object on account of
going to France. Any doctor, who
wishes to enlist, in this part of North
eastern Iowa, should send his name
to DR.. A. j. Swezey at once. All
these doctors become medical Off
crs, if accepted.

Hebrew HOLIDAYS.

Farmers who ship cattle know that
some markets are better than others,
and hope to reach a good market.
The best market for poultry for the
month is that when chickens are
most in demand Probably no other
holidays affect the city trade as do
the Hebrew holidays. Farmers who
have chickens to sell should try and
sell on these markets. The Hebrew
holidays just passed this year
are: Passover, April 18th and Sth,
when turkeys, heavy fowls, fat ducks
and geese are in demand, and the
Last Passover, April 18th and 14th,
when all kinds of good poultry are
wanted. The Feast of Weeks
comes May 9th, and all kinds of
good fowls are wanted also for this
holiday.
Poultry should be shipped to reach
the market three to four days before
the holiday. Make a note of these
days, and fatten chickens prepara-
tory to shipping or selling.
