brief life Here little Annie grew up,
learned to be very helpful in the work
of the household. and endeared her
self to everyone in the neighborhood.
From this home, she went back and
forth to the Dudley Corner school,
where she received instruction from
Mrs, Della Sandford. When fourteen
years of age, Annie became a member

Food Administration Notes
SUGAR

SUGAR
The allowance for December is four
pounds. But people should be pa
tient in calling for the same until the
merchants obtain the sugar on their
certificates which may not be for a
week or ten days after the first day
of the month when the rule goes into
effect
CONSERVATION
Do not forget that we still have a
duty to save all kinds OF food if we
would help the suffering people of
Europe. the victims of German auto
cracy. Because we can have more
-four and sugar. only means that those
articles are not the ones now so par
ticularly needed across the seas Food
of all kinds necessary to sustain life
is in great demand BY using more
-four and sugar we may be able to
spare more meat for which the call is
urgent over there
PRICES
The Food Administration is now
giving particular attention to the mat
ter of undue profits charged by mer-
chants. Any reader learning of un-
due advantage being taken along this
line should Immediately notify some

JEDEDIAH STRONG SMITH, THE
AMERICAN ULYSSES
g. Western Newspaper Un

This Is story Of q modern Ulysses,
frontier hero Of many wanderinSs,
who died without receiving the fame
which was his due, q man whose serv.
ice to America has been but lately
appreciated by his countrymen. Jede-
diah Strong Smith was his name, and
his contribution to history was tho
first accurate mapping Of The great
West.
Smith was born In New York In
1899. AS boy he played with the
young Seneca Indians Of Chief Corn
planters tribe, and learned their lore.
He became an expert with the bow
and arrow, which he afterward car
ried on all of his expeditions Once
he brought down q hawk flying about
75 yards above him, and he could
drive q shaft to the heart Of q buf-
falo as skillfully as any Indian hunter.
In years Of wandering Smith
crossed the western country on the
south from the Colorado river to the
Pacific; he crossed It midway from
the Rockies to the Pacific, and he
traversed 1t on the north from Cali
fornia to the Rockies. He visited all
the important streams from Arizona
to the Yellowstone country, and he
made accurate notes Of all he saw.
This information was used in correct
ing the unreliable maps Of TIA day
| and proved Of inestimablo value to
later explorers.
Smiths death was heroic. In 1881
he was puidinp n wagon train over
the Santa Fe trail. The train had tax.
| ell short cut around the head Of the
Cimarron river and soon was lost In
a desert country. Water must bS
found at once. Smith set out In search
Of stream, and finally reached one
While drinking, he was surrounded BY
q band Of Comanches, who determined
to have the white mans gun.
| The Indians signaled peace, and AZ
ter talking In the sign Language for q
while, they succeeded In f1ghtenin1
Smiths horse. Az 1t turned, they sho,
at the scout with arrows, woundins
him IN the arm. Smith wheeled about
shQt the chief dead with his rife an<
killed two moro savages WITH his pis
toas. Then grssping his AZ, the seou,
dashed into their midst. They cu
him down with their lances, but whel
they approached to scalp him, Smitl
rose up again and stabbed three o.
them with his knife. Then he droppe,
