DEISEL-WEMMER
Progressing Rapidly I'm
der Supervision of Manager Riehm
will Be Most Efficient Branch

The DIESEL Wemmer Co., are coming
to the close of their fourth week in op-
Grafton in this city, and officials of the
company visiting the factory last week
assert that the Celina branch is the most
up-to- date and progressive of any of the
branches.
The company now have employed near
ly two hundred women and girls and there
are openings for many more.
The factory has excellent sanitary
working conditions. and the majority of
the new beginners are progressing so fast
that their pay envelopes will be swelled
considerable within a few weeks.
The weekly output of cigars now av-
erage $4,000. of these 10000 are the IA
nous San Felice
Last weeks pay roll hit the thousand
dollar mark. and by the number of gold
pieces. which the company pay with, in
eminence, the merchants of the city no
doubt begin to realize the value of the
Deisel- Wemmer Co. to Celina and vicin-
ity.
Mr. Riehm, manager of the company's
factory here is man of rare intelligence
in the business, and the progressive steps
of this branch can be attributed to his
persistence efforts to make Celina's fac
tory the best of ALL. Anyone wishing to
inspect the plant will find Mr.. Riehm
most congenial young man.

FAIRVIEW FOLKS
Are Sure Up and Doing-Children's
Day Program SUGGESTIONS
munity Day Next

The Sunday school gave their en-
tertainment last Sunday evening to a
crowded house and then some who
stood on the ou tside, and heard as
best they could. The entertainment
was a success in every way. The pro-
gram committee surely showed their
ability at preparing programs, for the
exercises and drills were very select,
and splendidly given. Aside from
this a choir of twenty-five voices
helped make a good program.
The last Sunday in June (Review
Sunday has been set aside as a
special day for this Sunday School,
when Community Day will be observ-
ed. Instead of the regular review
lesson, a program will be given which
promises to be a good one and some
thing different On this day an eff
Ort will be made by the school to have
the entire community present. Not
a single soul is to have the Sunday
or to oversleep themselves,
or to stay home and cook for com
pany or to go visiting their aunts
and Uncles on the last Sunday in
June, round and about the Fairview
church. This is a new undertaking
for Fairview but under the superin-
tendency of Earl Poor assisted by
cabinet of efficient officers and teach
ers, a great success is predicted for
the attempt.

BIG DELEGATION
From Van Vert Arrived in Automo-
biles Yesterday for Annual Child
ren's Picnic at Edgewater Park

One hundred and forty eight automo-
biles, conveying probably one thousand
happy youngsters from our neighboring
city of Van Vert, visited this city yes
terday and enjoyed an outing and picnic
at Fdgewater Park. The heavy rain of
Wednesday afternoon made the roads
very pleasant for the automobile ride but
made the park grounds a bit wet, and
the air turned so ungraciously cold in the
afternoon that the trip was marred to
some extent.
The contingent was met at the Library
on North Main by Prof Vests Boys
Band, and escorted south to Warren
street and back to the City Hall from
where the machines continued on to
Edgewater Park.
1t was a great contingent and Celina
was proud to welcome them, regretting
that the heavy wind spoiled, boating,
bathing and fishing and cooled the air to
ungraciously low temperature for June
day
Here's hoping the crowd may return
next year and find the day more fit for
a picnic celebration.

new CHURCH
Building of the Chcrch of God In Ce-
lima is One Step Nearer
Realization

Rev. Turner has made up the
mailing list of prospective subscrib-
ers to the building fund and circu-
lar letter will be sent out to all on
the list. This will be followed by call
from the solicitor. The terms of the
subscription are-Two fifths when
the foundation is completed, two
fifths wren the roof is on, and one
fifths when the roof is on, and one
Tuesday was the first day for the So
licitor and good sum was subcrib-
ed, not one refusing to subscribe.
The plans for the building will
soon be in the hands of the contract
ors for estimates. All material for
the new building will be purchased,
as far as possible from local dealers,
and labor employed locally. The
church feel that they are justified in
asking for the support of the people
generally. The pastor and congre-
cation assure you of their highest ap-
probation Of all the help given.

LENNARTZ
Denies Allegations in Toledo
NeWs-Bee Story
And Says He Is Proud TO Be An
American Citizen, and Ready TO
Defend the Flag Anywhere
Toledo News-Beel

Alleged declarations of wealthy
Celina banker as to the relative mer-
its of President Wilson and the kais-
er and Of the American and German
governments may be investigated by
the federal grand jury which meets
on Friday.
When the flying squad from Tole-
do consisting of Frank Chaplin, Eu-
gene Rheinfrank, Lee Moon and two
or three other Toledo men, went to
Celina, when subscriptions to the Lib
erty Loan had been coming very
slowly they met with theSbankers.
1t is reported that during this con-
ference Henry Lennartz, cashier OF
the Citizens Banking Co., of Celina,
expressed the opinion that "the kais-
er is more beloved by his people than
is President Wilson and has done
more for them" also that "the Ger
man government is a better govern
mnt than the American government"
and that he did not want to hear any
more talk against the kaiser.
The Toledo visitors on their return
remarked of the incident and it has
reached the federal authorities. Len
nartz who is about so, is one of the
influential men of the community.
He left Germany when ten years old.

And Let Federal Authorities
Understand Public Welfare
Deserves Consideration

Over two hundred interested
business men and farmers from
all points along the G. II. & D.
between Dayton and -Delphos
are Assem- bled at the City Opera
house here to- day to organize to
prevent the junking of this
branch by Joseph & Joseph,
Cincinnati junk dealers, who
last week purchased the road
at a sale in the Federal Court.
Every town along the line is
represented at the meeting,
which is presided over by
Joseph Alexander, of Osgood,
one of the wealthiest and most
influential grain men of Darke
County, and owner of a big ele-
vator on the CHI. cd. at that
place. F. M. Longnaker, of the
stone and gravel firm of Long
maker & Hines, of Pleasant
Hill, is secretary. Committees
are being appointed to perfect a
permanent organization, and
legal counsel will be chosen
looking toward the purchase of
the road if necessary.
Ex-Congressman TouVelle, of this
city, representing himself and the
people along the line, Wednesday
succeeded in having the Federal
Court Withhold, until some action can
be instituted, the issuance of the or
der of sale to the junk buyers.
Many towns would be virtually |
ruined by the junking of the road.
Many large elevators and flour mills
besides other business concerns would |
be bankrupted Mendon. Chickasaw
and Montezuma in this county would
be the worst sufferers. Mendon and |
Montezuma both have large elevators,
and Chickasaw has one of the largest
elevators and Touring mills, The
Chickasaw Grain & Milling Co., in
this section of the state.
In this city the Buckland Milling
Co., The Model Milling Co., The Kel-
ley Coal Co., The E. E. Stephenson
Lumber Co., and the local light and
water plant would be most affected.

Material sufficient to complete the Sec

corporation line to the c. H. sd. railroad,
will be on the ground next week if the
railroads do not slip cog. Mr.. Burnett,
one of the contractors on this work, yes

COLDWATER
Likely TO Enjoy Free Delivery Soon
--Ft. Recovery Not Far From
That Goal

Through the efforts of Congress-
man B F. Welty, four more commun-
tiles in the Fourth Ohio District may
have free city mail delivery within a
short time. Bluffton, Covington,
Coldwater and Versailles are the for
tunate towns. Inspectors sent by the
posGoffice department at the request
of Col. Welty have recommended the
establishment of this service in these
communities, and Fourth Assistant
Postmaster General Blakslee has ap-
proved the reports.
Covington is already assured of the
free delivery service, as the final au-
thority-the postmaster general-has
approved the carrier service for the
miami county town. In the cases of
Versailles, Coldwater and Bluffton,
the action of Mr.. Burleson will be an
nounced within a week
Two carriers will be required for
Covington, and it is probable that the
other towns will also require more
than one mail carrier. In no case
will free delivery be established be-
fore August l, on account of the time
needed for working out details.
The securing of carrier delivery for
all towns entitled to the service was
the first project undertaken by Col
Welty after he assumed the duties of
Congressman March 4. All of the
above-named communities earn more
than $4,000 for their postoffices, this
being the amount required before car
riers will be allowed. During the
prosecution of the proposition for
these offices, Congressman Welty
found that New Bremen is also entit-
led to the service, and as a result he
has inaugurated a movement to land
it for the Auglaize county town. Ft. |
Recovery, earning $4912 last year
will probably enter the eligible class
next year, while Rockford, where the
postoftice brings Uncle Sam $4147, |
will have to buy more stamps before
the postmen will bring letters to the
doors.
