UNIT K MEN MAY Be
ORDERED OUT SOON
Harry w. Melton Of This City Is
A Member Of Hospital Unit
X OF Council bluffs.

All enlisted men of Hospital Unit
x who are now out of the state have
been ordered by wire to return to the
state at once and all officers of the
unit scattered at various training
camps over the country, have been
notified to be ready to proceed on a
moments notice to Camp Ethan AL
len, VT.
The above action was taken Sun
day by Captain Earl Billinger in
obedience to Geographic orders re-
ceived from Major Donald Macrae,
director of the unit, who is now in
Philadelphia. Major Macrae also
ordered that all of the equipment for
the unit which is stored here be re-
checked preparatory to shipment.
No other word than the above
orders was received from Major Ma
craze. but they are taken to mean that
mobilization orders for the unit may
come in the not distant future.
Some time ago Major Macrae adj
vised by the war department that it
was purposed to call out the unit
about November l for service over
seas. 1t is believed Sundays orders
are prelude to the mobilization
order which may come at any time.

JOHNSON WAS MURDERED
IN TEXAS SUNDAY

word reached Audubon last week
of the sudden death of Sam johnson.
a brother of w. J. Johnson. of Ham,
lin. The body was expected to ar
rive in this city Friday for burial.
On account of no word reaching Tex
as in time, the body was buried at
Mission. Texas.
w. ]. Johnson received long let
ter from ]. A. Card. of Mission,
Texas, a personal friend Of Sans. in
which he states that Sam johnson
was shot and killed by an old Mex
lean on Sunday afternoon a week
ago. The deceased and Mr.. Card
had been together until after dinner
when Mr.. johnson said he was going
to his bunk to read the Sunday pa
per- While reading he must have
fallen asleep. The old Mexican en-
tered the room where Mr.. Johnson
was sleeping and with shot gun
killed him instantly. He was ar
rested and said he knew nothing
about the crime other than he had
been drunk since Saturday night and
did the act while in an intoxicated
condition. The old man frequently
sold eggs to Mr.. Johnson. His son
was also employed by Mr.. Johnson
in the gravel pit which he had Oper-
ated for three years or more. This
is indeed sad news for his relatives
and many old friends.

AN OLD SETTLER
WAS BURIED TUESDAY

Sunday afternoon Mrs. Mike Nc
CURE died at her home in Audubon.
She had been in very poor health for
many years and her death came as
a relief from the suffering she had
undergone. OF late. she failed very
rapidly and her death was expected
by her remaining relatives.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mcclure came to this
country when young and among the
earliest settlers in this section. They
lived on the farm for several years
till they moved to the city. At all
times Mrs. MCGUIRE was very much
loved by her neighbors and friends
and was always ready to lend help
ing hand to one in need or distress.
She was cared for by her husband
and daughter, Minnie. The greater
part of her care falling to the daugh-
ter as her husband has been quite
feeble. The funetal was held Tues
day morning at the Catholic church.

ABOUT CAMP DODGE

A wonderful city at Camp Dodge.
It's so big one can hardly comprehend
it. No place is there a crowded con-
dition apparently. Streets are laid
off, some of them paved, the main
one having pavement for five miles.
About $4,000 men there now and
more coming. 1t is expected the
total number will be $4,000 after the
distribution to other camps which are
being made. There is good order,
no drinking of any kind, in fact a
model city. When a policeman out
there gives a command it is obeyed.
No questions asked. 1t looks good
to see one place on this continent
where authority is obeyed without
question and without fault finding.
The roads leading to the camp are
frightful, bunny, full of holes and in
a disgraceful condition from every
point of view. Dragging is needed
badly and what an improvement
could be made that way. It's the
duty of Des Moines to see to it that
there is better road service, as well
as that the interurban gives i'm
proved service. The regular high
ways tho are travelled by thousands
all of the time by auto and should
be kept in better shape. The dust
is unbearable. That is 4 matter for
the government to attend to. All
the streets should be oiled INN ediate-
ly before the coming of the fall rains
that we are almost sure to have.

their twenty fifth wedding anniver-
sary. The house was beautiful de-
corated in the National Colors-ReG,

The evening hours were spent in
happy "reminiscences of childhood
days, playing childhood games. listen
ing to music and readings from many
members. The entire evening was
very much enjoyed by all as Mr..
and Mrs. Clark are well known peo-
pie turnout Audubon county and it
was great pleasure to the neighbors
to help them celebrate their anniver-
sary.
Mr.. and Mrs. Clark were we'll re-
membered by their friends in the
form of many useful gifts. consisting
mostly of silver ware. The high re-
gard and esteem of the community
for these people was very we'll ex-
tended by the gifts presented and
as the friends departed. they wished
the happy couple many more happy
anniversaries Of their wedding day.

BOY SCOUTS SPEND EVEN.
ING ROUND CAMP FIRE

Under the supervision of their new
Scout Master, Rev. Proctor, 80 of the
Boy Scouts of Audubon went on a
hike Tuesday to the woods down
by the County Poor Farm to have a
good time, drill and become more
proficient in the tactics of the scout
work.
They left town shortly after the
close of school, accompanied by Mr..
Roseman, Mr.. Lashewski and Supt.
Mclntire. The boys took with them
a lunch consisting of bread, butter,
weanies, ham and many other good
les that could persuade their moth
ers- to permit them to take. The
forepart of the evening they spent
in doing athletic 'stunts" such as
running, jumping, wrestling, cow
walking and many forms of muscular
activity.
After the darkness fell. they built
fire. roasted their weanies and sat
down to G most enjoyable luncheon.
While so engaged they snapped
stories of merriment. past expert
ences, fiction, truth-in fact every
form of good wholesome stories.
But the boys grown tall were as full
of fun as the younger scouts. The
professors and the Scout Master had
as good a time and were as big cut
ups as any of the boys who went
with them. The scouts are hoping
the time may soon come when they
may again go on another of these
chases thru the woods.
Monday it is the expectation of the
Scouts to make a trip to Camp
Dodge to visit the soldiers city and
see and hear many things of real
camp life that they will never forget.
They expect to make the trip in cars
II the weather is not inclement--to
leave here early in the morning and
return that evening. 1t will be a
trip that they will remember all their
lives and one that is most education
al in nature. Supt. McIntire very
readily gave his consent to excuse
all the boys from school work who
go with the Scout Master on this big
hike" All the scouts who can,
should go.

REV. EITTLETON. FORMER
CHRISTIAN PASTOR DIES

Word was received last Monday
by Mrs. F. NJ. Herndon announcing
the death of Rev. c. II. Littleton. at
his home in Des Moines Friday.
His sickness lasted few days till
he was called to the great beyond.
His body was taken to his childhood
home in eastern Illinois for inter-
ment and final resting place.
Many friends of his church here
are sorrowed to learn of his death
as he was very we'll liked by all who
knew him and especially by the peo-
pie of his congregation. The last
time Rev. Littleton visited Audu-
bon since he moved from this charge
was three years ago when he ad-
dressed the people who attended the
M. w. A. log rolling and celebration.
Coincidence and sympathy are extend
ed to the relatives by the many
friends in this community.

A CHILD DIED

The other day a child was born on
a farm six miles from town. Ii
lived three days and died. The
mother who bore it is lying in a
critical condition. as she is low in
vitality and is making very little eff
fort to recover. This piece of news
brings a touch of sadness to our
hearts, even though we do not know
the mother personally. We do know
that in that home is silence, drawn
blinds. sadness, and on the part of
a husband and father terrible fear
and dread. What if the wife of his
bosom should be lost to him? Was
it not enough that his child should
die? We pity the rough, unemo-
tional, but tortured father
And when we stop to think that
this one case which has come to our
attention is multiplied 100000 times
in year in our nation, we are stun
ned with the tragedy of it. The wo-
man who lies at deaths door after
extreme suffering-no soldier torn
and bleeding on the battlefield suf-
fers more-might have been saved
much of her pain. The child she
bore in agony might have been saw

And this might have been done by
provided at the right time. The
100000 infants who die under one
year of age in our country of pre-
ventable causes can also be saved
by the dissemination of knowledge
and care.
Every publication wants particu-
larly to call your attention to this
fact. 1t Is not necessary to explain
to you that human beings are So
ciety's most valuable asset. We do
not need to argue that children are
worth more than live stock. But
you do need to be urged. to exert
yourselves in behalf of the children.
because you have never thought of
doing it before. You have thought
that parents could do all there was
to be done for their children. Time
was when they could. because there
wasn't much to be done that the
home couldn't produce and do. But
today it is different question.
The home is no longer the center
of production, and parents can't al
ways go out and buy what they used,
many times they don't even know
what they need. So a central Bur
eau has been established, from which
all the needs of mothers and children
can be attended to--when the Bur-
eau has money enough in it's trea-
sury. This is the Children's Bur-
eau at Washington. The Bureau
needs 100000 in its treasury
RIGHT NOW. And If Congress
thought you really wanted it, ii
would proceed at once to vote this
100000 into the Bureau. 1t is
simple thing. once it really takes
possession of you-as it has taken
possession of thousands. If one
member out of each of the millions
of homes in the United States would
become possessed with the idea OF
getting this money for our mothers
and children the rest would be easy,
Congress soon would hand 1t over
to the Children's Bureau.

behind the enemy's danger line.
The goal kick succeeded and when
the score was counted the rooters
had to run their voices to high 32
and back to 0.
Audubon was again permitted to
practice the kick off. Manning
slumped as usual in the catch and
made no return. Bagley was taken
from the game by the coach because
of slight injury. Jensen from left
tackle, played left half for Bagley.
Edwards was taken from left guard
to play left tackle for Jensen. Spen-
Ger was subbed for Edwards position
at left guard. Following this
change, Manning succeeded in going
around the right end for a twenty
five yard gain and as the second
down was made. the whistle blew
and the quarter ended.
The fourth and last quarter open

During the first down, Manning lost

of the game which was of two or
three minutes duration was marked
by loosened and married by rough
ness on the part of Motter of Mann

fro mthe game by the referee. The
trouble was caused by the hot-hcad-

Foley made legal blocking of Mot

beautiful tumble as a result. When
he got up, he kicked at Foley, who
in self defense was ready to pro-
tect himself. The referee saw the
kick and thinking that Foley was in
some way responsible removed them
both. Bystanders unanimously
voiced the verdict that Foley had
played a clean, fair game thruout.
Shortly after the removal by the ref
cree, Audubon lost the ball on downs

CHARLES WHITE
RETURNS HOME

Charles White who went into
training at the officers training camp
at Fort Smelling. Mimi, August %,
returned to Audubon last Saturday
to remain and resume his law work
! with his partner II. j. Mantz.
Owing to the several changes in
the plan concerning the training of
Officers, many of the men have been
rejected from further service at the
camp and many more have been
granted discharges upon request.
At the end of the fourth week sew
eral OF the men were sent home be-
cause for some undesirable trait,
while those remaining were to con-
tinue training and receive commits
sions at the close on November goth.
During the sixth week er0thar
order from the department was re-
ceived by the commanding officer
stating that the size of each COM
pany must be reduced to 100 men.
At the close of the eighth week
another order was sent out by th2
department that only about half of
the men in training would receive
commissions and during the next
week restrictions were placed on all
departments except for the infantry.
OF the men then at the camp, there
was less than one chance in three
for any man to receive a commits
sion because more than 700 men
there had formerly held commissions
in the National Guards and Regular
army ard many OF them had seen
actual service in war.
AS a result. Mr.. White rendered the
government his resignation because
OF the altered plans Men of pre-
vious military experience were to be
chosen first and under those ciy-
cumstances he believed his services
would not be as valuable TO the gov
eminent as men of longer experience.
A short time after the acceptance of
of his resignation, he received his
honorable discharge from service
Many of the men who were in SINH
class with himself also resigned and
returned to their life work.

MISS ELLA HURD UNDER
GOES OPERATION

Miss Ella Hurd. who formerly
was a teacher in the city schools,
went to Des Moines the first of last
week to undergo an operation at the
Methodist hospital. Accordingly she
was operated upon last Friday and
soon revived from the effects of the
anaesthetic and the last reports re-
ceived here were to the effect that
she was improving rapidly and will
soon return to her friends much i'm
proved in health.
