South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1917-12-12

News that trickles from private
sources past the censors bears out
the information given from time 10
time through the regular news
channels that American gunners on
land and sea are more than a match
for any foe. The latest proof comes
from George J. Shively, son Of the
late Sen. Benjamin r. Shively, and
a former resident Of South Bend,
who is now "a chauffeur with the
american forces in France. A broth
er, John Shively, is in the navy and
has been assigned 10 a submarine
chaser. Both enlisted early last sum-
mer at Brookville, Pa, where their
mother. Mrs Laura j. Shively, has
made her home since the death of
her husband.
In a letter TO his mother. George
describes a thrilling sea battle that
took place about the transport on

Sammies were being taken 10
France.

The letter. which was written in
France on oct. Z. follows:
Dear Mother:
The letter from you. telling OF
Johns departure, came just a few
hours after I wrote my last note.
Everything is progressing finely over
here. and so far as I can see pros
poets of peace were never brighter.
X will not be a matter of days, GER
tainly. nor o. weeks, but / do not
believe it remains a question OF
years.
John may well be proud TO be on
one of the submarine-chasers They
are the neatest, feetest little boats
on the sea, and it's a JOY TO watch
them in action.

ed them in action-hot action, too.
We fought submarines for an hour
and a half, were very narrowly
missed by a torpedo, but came out
victorious, having sent a few subs
below. At the time we were forbid
den to mention the battle in letters,
and even now it may not pass. You
need not worry about Johns part.
however. as the destroyers are in
very little danger, for the sub is
looking for bigger game-trans-
ports, you know-and won't waste
tOrpedoes Moreover, the chaser can
dodge any torpedo. so speedy are
its engines. I saw that proved also.

ARGUE MILK CASE
IN CITY COURT
Corporation, Not Rogers,
Should be Defendant,
Defense Claim.

After listening for two hours to
the arguments of the attorneys in
the Alvin Rogers case in city court
Wednesday morning, Judge Ham
merschmidt took the case under ad-
visement, 70 investigate the point OF
law brought up by the defense.
It is the contention Of attorneys
for the defense that the affidavit is
incorrectly drawn. and that the
South Bend Sanitary Milk Co, and
not Rogers. should be the defendant
in the case. Rogers, who is pres
ident Of the company named. is but
its servant. they declare. and as such
can not be held responsible.
a number of cases were cited by
both attorneys, three cases especial
ly being of interest. Both attorneys
cited the same cases 10 prove their
respective sides. drawing different
conclusions from the findings i'm the
two cases.
No definite date has been set for
the judgment in the case. but il is
believed il Will be several days be
fore Judge HammerSchmidt will be
able 10 look into all the points
brought up.
Rogers was brought to trial in
September, charged with selling
milk below standard The affidavit
was signed by City Milk Inspector
Grippe, who alleged that a sample of
milk he had purchased from a South
Bend Sanitary Milk CO. wagon con-
tanned less than the legal amount
of butter fat. and also contained
visible dirt. The case was continued
to allow investigation as TO points

Postmaster Zinky stretched a point
Wednesday and announced that the
city mail carriers will also carry
thrift stamps and sell them to ap-
plicants, Notwithstanding the holiday
rush. il was first contemplated that
the city carriers would not carry the
stamps until after the holidays.
Rural carriers will also carry the
stamps.
Both city and rural carriers will
gladly explain the war savings plan
to patrons on their routes. This will
necessarily cause some delay in mail
service, but patrons are asked not to
be too critical Of this delay, remem-
bering that if they are slightly in
convenienced the boys in the trench
es are being put in the way Of hav-
ing furnished them the things with

consume any unnecessary time of the
postmen. Have your change ready

ONE RESTAURANT FAILS
TO KEEP MEATLESS DAY

But one restaurant keeper who re-
fused to observe meatless day Tues
day was discovered by DR.. II. +.
Vitou, assistant TO the state food ad-
ministrator. This was the "Old
Homestead" restaurant on South ST.
All other dealers. says DR.. Vitou,
observed the day.
Indications were that very little
trouble would be encountered, ac-
cording 10 DR.. VitoU. "As soon as
the restaurant operators learn that
they will have to observe the meat
less and wheatless days. there viii
be no difficulty" he declared. Some
Of them thought that if others were
not observing the days, they would
not either But with all Of them
doing alike. no one has any objec-
ton"

1t isn't very far to big desert. They
don't raise much down here but horn
ed toads and cactus. The ranchers

l guess for this time / had better
quit. With my best wishes to you
all.
