URGENT NEED OF MEN
FOR THE U. S. NAVY

Now is the time to enlist in the
navy and stand by Old Glory, as there
is an urgent need OF men TO do duty
on submarine chasers, converted
transports and new ships nearing
completion and soon to be commits
stoned. The following branches of the
service are open: Apprentice seamen,
firemen, machinists, musicians, cop
persmiths, wireless operators. Will
accept telegraph operators without
knowledge of radio work Enlistment
ages from 18 to 50. We are also in
structed TO enlist few more coIored
men as walters, $37 70 SAL a month,
ages Is to 80.
The navy pay is equal to any In
civil life. What have you left at the
end of the month, if work is slack,
out of a job, strikes going on, sick
ness in the house with doctor bills to
pay, personal expenses piling up,
which will take months to clear, and
worry. Sit down and think it over,
for if you are in the navy, you travel
to all parts of the world, at the ex-
|pense of the government; if you are
sick, your pay goes on just the same !;
no worrie sabout lay-offs- and strikes.
The men offers you better induce
ments than you can get in civil life.
After sixteen, twenty an dthiry years
you can retire with a good pension.
How many places can you find in civil
life that will do this? When you are
old, out you go; a young man takes
your place. In the navy it is the OPP
posite.

lost sight of it's patriotic duty, which
is the main inspiration Of its work.
Notes Local Conditions.
1.-THE commission has always kept
in mind some of the problems that
have presented themselves in Be-
midi and the county and will take
every precaution to see that disturb
ances of any character will receive
prompt and effective attention when
ever occasion requires. A lively and
aggressive public sentiment against
anything disloyal or unpatriotic is
the best means of curbing such in
f1uences, but the professional agita-
tor and petty politician who seeks
to take advantage of war conditions
to further his own end must be kept
on the run, until he is without a
place to lay his head. Every means
for the enforcement of law and order
will be used to strangle anti-Ameri-
can feeling whenever and wherever
it manifests ITSELF"
Mr.. Henke will make an effort to
meet as many of our local people as
possible while he is in the city and
hopes to be able to send in some ex
cellent reports as to local conditions
as result.

ington of West Philadelphia holds the
record as the champion ivory beater
of the world. The title was accorded
to him at 5:15 o'clock Sunday morn
ing when he dropped over at piano
which he had been ceaselessly pound
ing cor 65 hours and IL minutes, drum
ming out symphony in X fiat.
Huntingdon and j. M. Waterbury of
Emporia, Kan. started a musical mar
athon on Thursday at noon at Fifty
second and Ranstead streets. Water
bury up to that time was the worlds
champion, having a record of 65 hours
and minutes.
From Thursday until Sunday at
SOB a. M, the pair kept up the con-
test. Then Waterbury went out, and
Huntingdon was left to pound away
on the keys alone.
He insisted that he was goin, to
distance Waterbury and he did, but
when he was seven minutes beyond
the Emporia mans record he faded
away and had to be carried off where
he could get little sleep.
While the contest was on the play
ers had to keep their fingers going
ceaselessly. They were fed thru a
hose. Their fingers were padded with
little pieces of felt and tn, keys were
covered with talcum powder. This
assuaged in great measure the
effect of the constant playing upon
their fingers.
In the last hours, as he was near
the record of his rival, Huntingdon
showed signs of nodding to sleep, but
the crowd around the place in which
he was playing kept up an uproar of
cheering so that he would remain
