LIVING COURT
 COMPLETES ITS
 ANNUAL SESSION
Taxes are Fixed and Alp propriations Made for
 Maintenance of Affairs.

With Judge L. E. Cheek presiding the levying court completed it's labors yesterday and adjourned until next year. The session was one G. the most harmonious ever held. Every measure brought before the CoI.. waa either rejected or pass ed unanimous. ly, with the exception of one which received only a small dissenting vo:s. This was in regard to the continu. ance of the work of tAe county farm agents, four justices being of the opinion that this work could bs dis continued without detriment to the county. The large majority, howev- CT, insisted that is was of the most important nature, and the approrrja- tion of $3,S40 was made to supple ment the $2,50o winch the govern. ment will donate.
 Buys Liberty Bonds.
 The appropriation, however which created the most enthusiasm was that of $2,o00 for the purchase of Liberty bonds. It seems that Senator Creed Caldwell, way back in 1899, caused an act to be passed whereby county funds could be invested in state CT government securities. Senator Cid we'll recalled this piece of legis,a,ion to the attention of the court. Iii @ moment the members saw which way the wind was blowing. The ccur:: lad on hand $2,000 belonging to :he cOOn ty railroad bond fund, and almost te' fore the motion could be made this reserve fund was by vote of the cour' invested in ihortv h0ndS
 The boys industria, school caine in for the anticipated appropriation of $5,000, and the Haygood industrial college for negroes received the sum of $400 to help pay the salary of an expert agriculturist. Thise appropria (tion vas made at the request and the earnest plea of Rev. P. R. Steel as sisted by Rev. w. J. E. Cox, J. D. Boyce and many others.
 Library Receives Help. The cause of the public library was led by Mrs. c. w. Pettigrew backed by a number of ladies. The court complied with the request oi these ladies, which was that $50 per month be given toward the mainten ance of the public library.
 Other appropriations were made, including $2,5O0 for the Davis hos pital.
 The following report of the appro- priations committee, of which J. E. Talbot was chairman, was adopted making appropriations for various ex- penses of the county and levyine taxes for the comming year:

Chicago Grain.

Chicago, Oct. 25.--Fresh upturns in the price of corn resulted today from scarcity of offerings and from efforts of shorts to escape further risks. There was no sign of any hurry on the part of farmers to sell, Pit traders seemed disposed to await hedging pressure before coming as. gressive on the bear side. Opening quotations, which ranged from S'Sc eff to hc advance with December s1.16 5-S to SLY and May $1.11 3-4 to .12, were followed by material gains all around.
 Unsettled weather and brisk de- mand from industries lead afterward to sharp additional gains. The close was strong 7-Sc to 3 3'Sc net higher at s1.19 3-4 to $1.20 December and $1.13 3-4 to $1.13 7-8 May.
 Persistent acquisition of oats for eastern account forced the oats mar ket up with corn.

U. s. TO COVER SEAS
WITH U-BOAT DESTROYERS

Preliminary steps toward providing
the navy with as many additional
destroyers as American plants can
turn out were taken up by Secretary
Daniels at a conference with more
than score of shipbuilders, engine
makers and representatives of other
industries.
Information was submitted by the
builders as to what they could do in
the way of expanded facilities. Navy
officials will study the reports and
suggest a definite plan for the ac-
complishment of their purpose, which
is to make the United States first in
destroyers, the archtenemy of the
submarine.
There are many building yards
which can install additional ways and
begin hull construction without de-
lay, but engines and equipment pre-
sent a greater problem.
Is U.Boat's Arch Enemy
The destroyer has proved itself by
experience the most efficient U-boa,
hunter, because of its speed and sea,
going qualities. The average under.
water speed of submarine is about
ten knots per hour. Steamers EN-,
ployed as troop ships make not less
than twelve knots per hour, so that
! they need not fear underwater at
tack from the rear and with destroy
er conveys to protect them ahead, vir
tually only chance encounters will
submersibles which lie directly il
/ their path are to be expected.

PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

1t is time to think of rallying the
forces of the church for the Fall and
Winter; looking forward TO the spec
ial Rally-Day on Sept. 3Oth.
This Sabbath, Sept. Goth will be
Communion Sabbath. and the last
Communion Season which the present
pastor and his family will have the
privilege of celebrating with this con-
gregation.
Let us seek to make it a day of
special blessing. Remember, then,
the Bible school on next Sabbath at
10 a. NJ; followed by the Service OF
Public Worship at IL o'clock. The
Theme for the Sermon:-The Secret
OF the Lord as to The Blessed Life.
The Secret" is revealed in the open
ing verses of the First Psalm; the
opening Song of the Bible Song Book,
His delight is in the law of the Lord
and in His law doth he mediate day
and night The church Stands for
all the fundamental elements upon
which depend the triumph of right
eousness and peace and blessedness
in these times upon which "all the
ends of the earth have met"
Il count life just a stuff to try the
souls strength on. said Browning

today. Thos. B. Greenlee. Pastor.

REGIMENT Is NOW
TO WAR STRENGTH

When taps sounded at the fair
grounds Monday night the Third
Iowa regiment, designated for service
in France, was recruited to full war
strength and 3,605 soldiers were in
camp. Movements of troops from all
parts of the state began early Monday
nearly every train poured its quota of
khaki clad men into Des Moines.
Special street cars conveyed their
loads of cheering soldiers to the Third
regiment camping grounds. Camp
Dodge was a scene of busy activity
First regiment men who were desig-
mated by lot to join the first oversee
division of national guards left the
cantoment at 10 o'clock. AS they
marched out of camp, to accompan-
cement on martial strains from the
regimental band, boys who were left
behind burst forth into wild cheering.
Special coaches had been provided by
the interurban company to transport
the troops to Des Moines and special
street cars were waiting for the re-
mainder of the trip to the fair
grounds.

SPLENDID PICTURE SALE

Bertel Wonsmos, the landscape ar
fist. who has been conducting picture
sales in various parts of the United
States, offered half the proceeds of a
sale in Audubon to the Red Cross
Society. The offer was accepted
and the sale held in the city park on
Saturday evening of last week. The
genial Miles Kness offered to donate
his services in auctioneering the pic
lures. A good sized crowd gathered
and were eager to buy the splendid
pictures. Half of the proceeds a.
mounted to $3.50 which was depos.
tied in the First National Bank to
the credit of the society. This was a
very generous offer on the part of Mr.
Wonsmos, and he has the thanks OF
the society and the people of the com.
munity for his generosity.

MUCH MAIL TO THE
SOLDIERS Is LOST

Mail Tor American soldiers in
France will not be forwarded unless
the addresses show the company and
regiment or the name of the separate
item to which the soldier belongs.
Postmaster General Burleson di-

to senders all mail not addressed in
that manner The American postal
agency in France has been swamped
with mail bearing such addressed as
Somewhere in France" care the
American eXpeditionary forces" etc
1t has been found impossible by the
postal authorities to undertake the
location of men to whom letters are
so addressed as commands are scat
tered and opportunities to exchange
mail between the units are limited.
Postal authorities in France. Eng
land and Canada have taken similar
action.
