Commissioner Fosdick says "On
the Mexican border last summer /
can remember that in some of those
lonely camps, as the train stopped at
the watering tank, the soldiers would
come through, asking If we had any
even newspaper. They were abso-
lutely without anything to read, and
often had nothing to do.
"A situation like that must never
happen again, and l do not believe
that it will occur again; believe the
old days are past"
The million dollars that is being
raised for Soldiers and Sailors Libra
ries is going to make the recurrence
of such a situation an impossibility;
but in order to have the million dol
lars every one must give.
For each dollar given there will be
a book plate bearing the donors

that is purchased.

rising to the occasion but every man.

FREMONT WINNER:
FOOTBALL TEAM BEATS o. n. S.
IN OPENING GAME.

There are gobs of JOY in Fremont
To-day. Fremont high schools vet

winning from Oskaloosa high schools
green grid-iron machine Oska-
loosa's opening game of the 1917
Schedule, 6 to 0. Fremont was more
surprised by the unexpected victory
than, was Oskaloosa.
Unable to defeat the stalwart in
vading team the Oskaloosa High Ma
rooms fought fiercely to make the
Fremont victory as costly as possible.
The Maroons' defensive playing was
strong enough, but the locals lacked
the punch to score when within strik-
ing distance of their opponents goal
Coach Jones Fremont delegation
was a heavy and an experienced team,
almost the same that has represented
the southeastern Mahaska county
school for the past several years.
Weight was Fremont's greatest asset
and was used to a good advantage.
Oskaloosa Highs team was composed
almost entirely of inexperienced and
light men, and has been welded to-
gether within the past few weeks,
Fremont's lone touchdown came in
the first quarter of the contest when
Edison scooped up a Maroon tumble
in mid-field and raced about thirty
yards. Line-bucks carried the ball
near the Maroon goal. A wide run
by Baker gave the visitors their
score. The goal-kick failed, the
sphere falling several feet short OF
the cross-bar.
That lone touchdown means much
to Fremont. For the first time in
years Fremont was not only able to
score against the Maroons, but was
also able to defeat team represent
ing high school that last year was
a state title contender.
In the third quarter local fans were
given a taste of last seasons playing.
The Maroons in brilliant attack
pounded their way across the field to
the Fremont two yard line, where
weight won the decision and Fremont
gained the ball on downs.

CaiderWood Makes Address.
The only formal speech before the
meeting was delivered by w. G. Cald-
erwood of New York, executive secre-
tary of the National association for
war time prohibition. Mr.. Calderwood
presented the case of the liquor traffic
as unfair to all other lines Of legiti-
mate business.
Every business man is willing to
meet all fair competition but the
liquor traffic is unfair competition in
three respects, regarded, that is, pure
ly from an economic standpoint he
said.
First, the liquor traffic gets an TN
fair social grip on its customers who
are also the customers of other bust
nesses, grip that none of the other
businesses gets. defy anyone to

traffic gets the grip of appetite on
it's customers. The average man will
not starve for clothes nor go naked
for food nor do without furniture or
other necessities for either, but the
customer of the liquor traffic comes to
the point where he will do without
food, clothes, furniture and all of the
other wares of legitimate business for
the sake of drink.

ouor traffic is unfair to other business

money with which to patroniZe the

selves and makes them burden upon
legitimate business.
If you will adopt this amendment.
especially with arousing majority, 1t
will take the liquor traffic forever out
of the politics of this state and will en-
able the voters to select men to office
without having to pick them for their
right attitude on the liquor question
and in disregard of their capabilities
in every other feature of the duties to
which they are to be elected"

ADDITION To CITY
SUGGESTED IN THE REQUEST
FOR NEW STREET.

w. N. Hall, local real estate sales
man, submitted the suggestion to the
city council last night that the council
investigate proposition to open a
new public street or avenue, from
Market street west to ID street, one
blocl; south of Eighth avenue west.
The new avenue would be Ninth av-
enue west. Mr.. Hall asserts a new ad-
dition is about to be opened there and
that now land may be secured at a
reasonable price.
As to Health officer.
Dr.. J. G. Roberts, president of the
Oskaloosa Commercial Club, address
ed the council Monday evening on
the problem of securing city health
physician. 1t was the belief of the
doctor that the city must raise the
salary of its health physician before
1t can secure a capable man. The pres
ent salary of 800 a month is not
enough he contends. He suggests
that the annual pay be increased to
81, 500 or $1,000.
Rendering Plant.
Otis Taylor of this city has prop
osition to erect rendering plant here
and care for the city scavenger work
operating his plant at no expense to
the city. A representative of the Des

pany appeared in Mr.. Taylor's behalf
and explained the proposition. 1t was
his belief that the plant could soon be
enlarged to care for the garbage OF
the city. This proposal was turned
over to the Improvement committee o.
