GIRL AND JOY
RIDE EXPENSIVE
Verne Moody, Il Farm Hand who
Works on Little Farm South Of
City, Stole Ford Car
for Joy Ride.
s BOUND OVER BY JUSTICE
Took Lady Friend and Another
Couple out for a Ride-lAp.
pretended Later.

Verne Moody, a young farm hand
employed on the Little farm south OF
this city, came to Webster City yes
terday afternoon with firm desire
in his mind for the company Of a
lady friend and a joy ride. He got
both, but the latter desire will prob
ably cost him trial in the district
court, for he was bound over in JUS
tice fuckers court this morning on
the charge of stealing an automobile.
Arriving in the city yesterday at
ternoon he looked about for car
and found one easily-a Ford belong
ing to E. e. Cheever. Next he located
his lady friend and told her he had
hired the car at a garage. The car
has two seats and so Moody, who has
very generous heart, located a
friend, Leo Olmstead, and the latter,
together with his lady friend, Joined
the party. They drove north of the
city and in the meantime Cheever
had missed his car and had reported
it to the police.
Along about II o'clock; Moody and
his party came back and were driv-
ing the car through the business dis
trict of the city when Mr.. Cheever
recognized his car and stopped them.
Moody claimed to have bought the
car, but this morning confessed that
he had taken it. Justice Tucker plac-
ed him under 800 bonds to await
the action of the next grand jury.
TAXING an auto is a serious matter,
s'1rishable by a fine of as much as
$500 or year in the penitentiary.
No charge was preferred against Ohm
stead, as he had no knowledge that
the car had been stolen.

Miss Florence Watkins, Home Demon
stratiOn Agent, Gives Talk on
: Baby Foods to the
Mothers.
WAS IN ROSE GROVE TOWNSHIP
Saws Cows MIX More Dangerous Than
Either Dirt Of Flies Unless
Pasteurized.

Miss Florence Watkins, Hamilton
county's home demonstration agent
talked to the mothers of Rose Grove
township at meeting in the Rose
Grove Center school Thursday after
noon. Infant feeding was the subject
under discussion and was especially
timely, owing to the present campaign
of child welfare workers to secure the
normal physical development of every
child in the county.
The Importance of knowing some
thing concerning the digestiveness OF
food taken into the body was one of
the points brought out by Miss Wat
kins. Food is important from the very
beginning of child's life. Milk, be-
ing the only food of the child for at
least the first eight or nine months
of it's life, the real value of pasteuri-
zation OF milk was brought out. BY
pasteurization is meant the process
preventing or checking fermentation
in the fluid, through exposure to GER
tain temperature.
Cows Milk Dangerous.
1t has been shown, Miss Watkins
declared, that cows milk is a more
dangerous enemy to the child than
either dirt or flies. Pasteurized milk
is the food recommended, as it can be
prepared at home. Cows milk, When
ever fed to child during the first few
months of its life, must be modified, as
it differs in composition from human
milk. A baby should be fed with
human milk if at all possible.
An experiment has been conducted
where $4,000 babies, born in the city
of Berlin, were registered and at the
end Of the first year it was found that
cne-fourth were dead, one in two being
bottle-fed and one in every thirteen
being given human milk
School Lunches.
A child's body and brain grows more
in the first year of its life, in proper
ton, than in any other. Therefore,
emphasis must be placed on food as
well as cleanliness, etc.
Various phases of children's food
requirements were discussed. School
lunches were touched upon and the
value of the warm dish at the noon
hour was considered 1t is a recognize
ed fact that child can do better ply
steal and mental work If his body and
mind are we'll nourished.

STOCkYARD WORKERS
Claim They Are Both
Underpaid and Over
work. ed

Chicago. ILL., Feb. l2-Testifying
that employees of the packing compa :
MES We're both overworked and under
paid. Albert Peterson. an official of
the stationary Engineers Union. took
the stand today in the hearing before
Federal Judge Samuel -Alschuler, to
settle wage and working disputes be
tween the packers and employers. Pc
terson said stationary engineers were
working l. hours daily and that the
average wage scale was A. IL cents
an hour. This. he said. was much low
Ell than that paid union engineers in
practically every other industry.
He said that if an engineer, pecom-
ing dissatisfied with conditions, sought
employment elsewhere, he found it diff
ficult TO do so because. he believed, the
packers exerted their influence against
all union men and were able to hold
their men because of the fear implant-
ed in them that they could secure no
work elsewhere. Appetizer reason. he
added, was the belief that conditions
at the stock yards We're to be greatly
improved provided all employees should
unite in making their demands.
Testimony was given by electrical
workers, copper. blacksmiths and 9TH
CT employees. and by $. G. Frazee, su
perintendent of the Wilson and Co
plant Nj. i'razee said the average
rate OF wages paid was y cents an
hour
Albert Peterson Of the steam operat-
ing engineers union and a former
packing house employee, said:
The stockyards are the dumping
ground for the men of our craft who
are temporarily without WORK and in
most cases they remain only long
enough to save up carfare and leave
Chicago"
Girl workers and women with ba
bies in their arms We're present to
give evidence concerning conditions,
particularly long hours, which the
unions claim prevail at the stock
yards.
