Primarily this move with it's echo
of hasty pudding as eulogized above
by Aunt Jerusha and Of early Colon
ial methods is mobilization of eff
fort to make most effective and prac-
ticable on the farms of the country
a conservation of wheat products by
means Of corn substitutions. But the
duty to conserve is as much an obi
cation with city folks.
Maybe you don't entirely agree
with Aunt Jerusha on some of her
receipts" Maybe you have learned
better ones from the food scientists
modern amendments to Aunt Jeru-
sha's original motion. But food ex
perts are quite in agreement with this
early champion that corn meal is one
Of the most wholesome foods and that
there is no important dietetic differ
ence between corn and wheat as
sources of body fuel And we're all
agreed that there is a patriotic obli-
cation to conserve food. So the duty
becomes plain, though, as the 'spe
cialists have pointed out, there need
be no sacrifice Of palatibility if corn
meal is properly made and served.
A new edition of Farmers Bulletin,
SOS, Corn Meal AS a Food and Ways
Of Using It," brings Aunt Jerusha's
recipes up to date. This bulletin,
which should be in the hands of
every housewife, will be sent to all
who apply for it,

ways in which farmers and commun-
tiles remotely situated as regards
grinding mills and fresh supplies of
good corn meal. can prepare and
utilize corn for food. We should be
able to give practicable directions
that would diminish transportation
and the repurchasing of corn in the
form of meal and other corn products
at prices many times that Of the corn
from which they are made. Econom-
ic conditions will cause considerable
substitution of corn for wheat as
food, making this the opportune time
to demonstrate that by prompt and
proper preparation of new corn, the
substitution causes no sacrifice, not
even of palatableness.

nesday, Lehman was brought to Wau-
seon by sheriff Boone and his wounds
examined by a number of physicians
he was also closely questioned in re-
gard to the details of his story of the
occurrences of Sunday night. At a
little after six o'clock Wednesday
evening an affidavit charging him
with the murder of his wife was filed
by the prosecuting attorney with JUS
tice L. H. Deyo who issued a warrant
for his arrest and Lehman was placed
in the county Jail for the night to be
brought before justice Deyo for hear
ing Thursday.
The examination of Lehman was
made at the instance of Coroner Bish-
op and Sheriff Boone; the officers hav-
ing found circumstantial evidence that
discredited Lehman's story. Sheriff
Boone having found % calibre re-
volver under the milk house on the
Lehman farm with bullets gone from
the chambers. An old knife was also
found with blood on one blade. The
doctors who examined Lehman's
wounds were of the opinion that the
abrasion on his forehead and the
scratches on his chest were made by a
knife or some sharp pointed instru-
ment. The doctors also were of the
opinion that the bullets entering the
arm and leg from in front though
Lehman had said he was shot while
running away from his assailants and

ing and there are more vacant places
in many homes all over the county;
also there are many homes where the
letters from the absent ones will be
anxiously waited for and those same
letters will be read with pride and
treasured among the keepsakes Of
the family.
The BOYS reported for duty at the
court house at a o'clock Tuesday after
noon and they were a fine group of
fellows; the whole county is proud of
them.
Harry G. Pilliod of Swanton and
Howard S. Dolf of Wauseon were de-
signated by the local Military Board
to act as leader and assistant respec-
lively for the trip to Chillicothe.
In Delta the business places and
shcools didnot open Wednesday morn
ing but instead all who possibly could
came to Wauseon to see the boys off.
Business places in Wauseon closed
at $3.50 Wednesday morning and re-
mained closed until after the train
bearing the second detachment of the
county's selected men was on its way
to Toledo.
Business men and citizens from
Archbold, Swanton, Fayette and in

COUNCIL NEE TING
Width of New Beech Street Pave
ment in QuestiOn-Signal Light
Posts at Street intersections on
Fulton-Sewers and Sidewalks.

On Monday evening all councilmen
were on duty and discussion and dis
position of town affairs moved along
in normal order.
A petition from property owners
on Beech street that asked that the
new pavement be kept to 20 feet re-
vealed the fact that while the legisla-
ton on this improvement called for a
20 foot street on the Beech street i'm
provement, the engineer had made blue
prints and specifications for "a foot
pavement and had instructed the con-
tractor to order material for the last
named dimentions. Thel legislation
having been passed for 20 foot pave
ment the council decided that it was
not in their power to change the di-
mensions at this time and that no
action on the petition was necessary.
The clerk read proposal from the
Toledo & Indiana Railway Company
to furnish and place signal light posts
at the street intersections on Fulton
street from the Cherry street inter
section on the South to the Oak street
intersection on the North, and to fur
nish electric current for lighting
same. The council voted to accept
the proposal and to instruct the city
solicitor to draw up a contract be-
tween the village and the T. & I.
Railway company embodying the
terms of said proposal These posts
will be for the guidance of traffic and
will bear red signal lights at night.
The parking of autos, hitching rails
and other items relating to the proper
care of vehicles and people who visit
the town on market nights and other
special occasions were discussed and
plans concerning them made.
Sidewalk and grades for sidewalks
on Vine, Cherry and Jefferson streets
were considered and instructions is
sued.
A petition from property owners
for sanitary and storm water sewers
on Sycamore, Potter and other streets
in the Northwestern section of the
town was presented. to the council
After reviewing the sewage situation
in that section of the. town and the
conditions that prevail, the council
seemed to be of the opinion that the
sewer petitioned for should be con-
structed and while not taking any
definite action expressed itself as in
favor of going forward in this matter
Action will probably be taken at the
next meeting of the council.
A matter of temporary improve
ment of the West end OF East Chest
nut street was referred to the stree
committee; claim ordinance was pass.
ed and council adjourned, to meet
again October first.

SUCCESS AND APPRECIATION


Mr.. C. P. Grisier was a guest last
Saturday of c. D. Greenleaf and DR..

the occasion of the first Field Day of
the officers stockholders, employees
and their families of the C. G. Conn
Ltd. manufacturers of band instru-
ments, of which Mr.. C. D. Greenleaf
is president The event took place
in a park just back of the factory
building and bordering on the beau
tiful st. Joe River; the river at this
point being about 500 feet in width
furnished an ideal spot for the picnic;
pleasure boating, swimming contests
and boat racing were engaged in to-
gether with the field games making
the day big event.
The musical entertainment by the
c. G. Conn Band composed of thir-
ty people of the factory was enjoyed
by all. The c. G. Conn Orchestra at
the dancing pavilion made big hit.
The grounds were beautifully dec
GRATED with American flags brought
from the factory rooms and bought
by the employees.
Swings, teeter-boards etc, were pro
vided for the children. At II o'clock
just 1000 people partook of lunch
con, barbecue style, consisting of
sandwiches made from two we'll
cooked oxen, potato salad, celery,
olives, ice cream, cake and coffee; the
ice cream and lemonade ives an
"all-day-event" and as free as the
water in the St. Joe river.
The 500 employees took advantage
of the day to express their apprceia-
ton of what Mr. Greenleaf has done
for them by presenting to him a
beautiful diamond set Knight Templar
charm also very useful present in
the way of an auto lunch-kit. 1t
was certainly a pleasure to see the CO.

between employer and employees.

ly completed, through the courtesy of
his old friend DIR G. B. Tuthill, Mr..
Grisier visited the three very fine

abroad two years learning the meth

at the Paris Island, S. C. training
camp for the "Soldiers of the Navy.

quickly informed that their training
is not for splen3or on the parade
ground, but on the contrary, is for
the highest efficiency in actual war
fare. The recruit sea soldiers are
also being indoctrinated with the idea
that U. S. Marines must never fail

There are about twenty-five hun
dred Red Cross members in the county

Branches are all doing most excellent

The above are but a few of the

Many stories, such as the sale of
