The War Department wants
this state to furnish 800 men of
military age, II to 81 years, who
can qualify as telegraphers in the
Signal Corps of the u. ). Army.
The nature of this selective SER
vice calls for men of good charac-
ter and ability. OEly u few weeks
of honest study will equip the
everage person to pass in the Sig
nal Corps service. Schools in te-
legraphy are now being opened
where, at slight expense, you can
secure competent Instruction.

Notice to Subscribers.

After January 1st the price of
the Independent will be $500.
The publisher now sees that it is
impossible to run the paper at
S150 a year, not alone to make it
pay at that price, but to make
ends meet. 1t is either $500 a
year or cease publication, and we
will try the increase in price.
Those who pay up before January
1st will pay the old price of $l.5O,
but after January 1st the price
will be $500. Everything that
one needs in the shop and home
has more than doubled in price
and if the publisher should want
to come out as formerly, the price
of his paper would have to be not
$500, but at least So. 90. per year.
Every newspaper in this state as
we'll as other states. has raised the
price. We urge our subscribers
to take advantage of the old price
before January 1st.

Dear Folks
Did you ever hear about Grand
mother Gray! She is the dearest
little grandmother In the whole
world. She lives on a quiet little
street with o big elm In front Of
her picket gate, and so many BUSH
es in the big yard that you hardly
can see the brick cottage that has
been hers ever since She and
Grandfather Gray were married.
Summer and winter she is just the
same busily working about the
house and yard with her white
apron on, except on Sundays when
she goes to church wearing her lit
tie bonnet with big white strings.
Last Saturday. when little Jean
and Jimmie G. stopped in, they
thought they would surprise her. so
they pulled up the old latch on the
gate real easy 80 It wouldn't
squeak, and tip-toed around to the
back porch and hid behind the hon.

little Grandmother Gray 60 over to
the stove; and they just whooped
in on her. She was taking out the
last pan full Of cookies when those
bad youngsters scared her so she
dropped the hot cookies all over the
floor. But you just guess they
