now has one of the biggest and up to-

One of the big road oiling trucks
that hauled the road tar to the pike
last week, caught on fire last Friday
morning. No particular damage was
done, the oil and tar on the machinery
burned off and the fire was extinguish-

Mr.. and Mrs. M. Leatherman were
in River Styx Sunday
Ralph Moore, one of our local boys
has answered the call for service In
the U. S, army. He left here last
Saturday for training camp.
It certainly does seem to be getting
rather serious, when a perfectly hale
and hearty man can not lie down on
his own front porch and take nice
peaceful "snooze" after a big meal,
without having the undertaken come
along with the hearse and then walt
with his outfit in the street, while he
hires another man to go in and see
if the party in question is really
dead or alive. Well this was the case
with one of our own local citizens.
He happened to be taking nap while
the undertaken was out drumming up
trade.
C. w. Carlton went to Wooster Fri
day to have his arm treated. 1t has
been getting along very nicely since
he had it broken a few weeks ago.
Norma and Norean Carlton are
spending a week visiting with their
uncle, w. Carlton up. at Northwest

ports:
"The Canadians feel deeply the
original mistake made in not hold

more responsible work. They feel
that multitudes Of their strongest

Of Canadian Universities the joint

ties across the seas we have nothing

Part as God has given them the light
to see it. The contemplate persons

sought to escape the responsibilities
and sacrifices of German citizenship
by coming to this land of the free
and who now continue TIE coward s
part by writing anonymous letters to
this and other newspapers denounc-
ing those of us who are true to our
own country. and who remain ready
to serve it. The pity is that more of
their type did not remain where they
or their fathers were born and that
their places in this country are not
occupied by the brave men who nave
died or who continue to follow the
flag of the country they claim as
their own.
Those who have died for their
Kaiser and those who continue wiling
to sacrifice life under his banner
would, we are sure, be better citr-

no reasonable effort has been spared
NV tho government to avoid its awful
consequences.
No sane. man OF woman ever invites
trouble, Intentionally at least, ana
vet, when it comes, it must be oeal'
with. To that end let every true
American do his duty, and do it with
ont hesitation or reserve. We may
all be called upon to make sacrlllces
in one way or another. Let US make
them cheerfully. Let there be no
shirkers. 1t may, and doubtless will
mean that the lives of many of our
brave soldiers and sailors will have to
be given up to the cause of libe0y
and Justice. But it will not be the
first time that American blood has
been shed for that high purpose.
There will be duties for all. those
