G. =. Jones has SHE'D his sky piece
in the ring for the Republican nom
nation for Sheriff of Ohio county.
Mt. Jones is not without experience
in the Sheriff's office having served
as deputy during the term Of T. II.
Black, which serves to fit him for the
position which he seeks. Mr.. Jones
was born and reared in the Crom-
well vicinity and now resides in Beda
precinct. He is successful farmer
and a good business man, and prom
ises his opponents good clean fight
for first place in the coming primary.
Mr.. Rowan Holbrook. who was re-
Gently appointed deputy State Bank
ing Commissioner, stated yesterday
evening that he was undecided as to
whether or not he would accept the
appointment. The appointment of
Mr.. Holbrook to this important po-
sition is a recognition OF his efficient
services to his party that is well mer-
tied. Mr.. Holbrook is now Vice Pres
ident of the Bank OF Hartford and his
many friends in Ohio county, altho
they rejoice that he has been hon
ored, are urging that he decline to
accept because acceptance would
probably mean the moving of Mr..
Holbrook and his family to Frank
fort.

ny as weighman and clerk have add
ed to his qualifications for the Office
he asks for. Although he has al
ways been staunch Republican he
has never sought to hold an Office be-
fore. II the Republicans OF the.

their standard-bearers he will no
doubt be victorious In November.

American Section
At Front Next Week
Forty-hve College Men in
Newly Organized Ammuni-
ton Transport Corps

Paris. May With the entrance Of
the United States into the war, the
American Field Ambulance Corps,
which heretofore has confined its du-
ties TO ambulance work along the front,
has decided to develop two important
new branches Of its work. These are:
First: A military transport service
in which the Americans will have
charge Of the transportation of ammu-
milton and field supplies at main points
where ofensives are in progress.
Second: A military school at which
the Americans will receive special
trairing under French officers leading
20 appointment as officers Of the French
army after few weeks Of intensive
training.
Both these steps have been worked
out bv Professor A. Piatt Andrew, chief
inspector Of the American Ambulance
Corps. together with the French mill
tarv authorities, and the actual com
mencement Of both branches Will ocur
this week. =
The FIRST section Of the transport Of
.r,rrnition to the fighting front leaves
next Wednesday. 1t will be composed
Of fortv-fve Americans drawn from the
leading colleges, with twenty heavy am
munition trucks. 1t is expected that
one additional section will leave for the
front each week.
The school for Americans seeking
commissions in the French army will
be opened to-morrow at Meaux, where
extensive quarters have been assigned.
Fifteen Americans will compose the
first class and will be drawn from those
who previously have been operating
ambulanccs.
The development Of these TWO new
branches Of work probably will lead to
n change Of the name Of the American
Field Ambulance Corps to the Ameri-
can Field Service or American Volun-
tecr Corps.
