Colonel Gilbert Van d. Wilkes, a
native of Mason county, was yester-
day named commander of Camp Shell

bly, the youngest cantonment com
mander in the United States being but
thirty-one years of age and so far as
is known he is the youngest officer
holding such responsible position.
Col. Wilkes is a West Pointer. He
was elevated to the rank of Colonel
from that of Captain only a few
months ago. He is a native of Wash
ington, this county, a son of Mrs. Sal
lie Wilkes, of that place and Col.

CITY IS IN A VERY
SANITARY CONDITION
Influenza Epidemic Has Cleaned Up
the City Better Than II Has Been
Cleaned For Quite a While.

The city of Maysville is at present
in one of the most sanitary conditions
1t has been in for months and 1t is all
due to the Spanish influenza epidemic
and the order of the City Board of
Health that everything should be
cleaned up thoroughly.
The street cleaning department has
given the streets thorough cleaning
with the fire hose. They had been
kept very clean heretofore with the
sprinkling cart but the fire hose got
into all of the cracks and crevaces and
got out all of the filth and germs.
The sewers have been thoroughly
flushed and crude carbolic acid placed
in the catch basins have cleared them
of all germs. The air on the streets
now is very free from disease and
Maysville is one of the cleanest cities
in the whole state.
Without influenza epidemics to spur
us on there should be such a general
cleaning up of the streets. sewers and
catch basins every few months and II
would certainly be noticeable in the
health of the community.

BEAUTIFUL new CEMETERY
ENTRANCE ABOUT COMPLETED
New Stone Entrance Being Erected at
the Maysville Cemetery WIN BE
Completed within the Next
Two Weeks-0ne Of the $
Most Beautiful In
the State.

Messrs. Murray & Thomas, local
stone and granite workers, have been
engaged for the past several days in
erecting the beautiful new entrance
to the Maysville cemetery and they
expect to have the work completed
within the next two weeks.
The entrance and adjoining walls
are made of Bedford stone and the
arch when completed will be one Of
the most beautiful to be found at any
cemetery in the state. When entire
ly completed the job will cost the
Maysville Cemetery Company in the
neighborhood of $4,000.
The need of an attractive entrance
at this place has been felt for some
time and when this is completed the
two cemeteries adjoining will both
have very attractive entrances.

IS ANSWERED BY MANY
In One Day the Loyal People Of Mays
vile Contribute n Large Number

The young ladies of the local chap
ter of the American Red Cross reports
that the appeal made to the good peo-

tioles were donated: 430 face towels,
$40 hand towels, 600 napkins, las

Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Com

Dollars Worth Of Liberty
Bonds Through Local
Agent.

Mason county's Liberty Loan total
was swelled considerably today by the

Elgin. This same company purchased
a large block of the third loan in this

Tomorrow all of the banks will be
closed because of Columbus Day but
there will be members of the County
Liberty Loan committee all day at the
Chamber of Commerce where they can
be consulted by any of the workers or
where any information can be obtain
ed. Because it is Columbus Day there
is no reason why the purchase of
bonds should be stopped.
At the close of business this after
noon the banks report $4,000, sold
during the day bringing the total for
the county up to $645.O5O.
The various precincts stand as fol-

TOBACCO DISTRICT IS
CONSIDERED UNPROTECTED
Kentucky Acturial Bureau Manager
Asks That Tobacco District BE
Brought Within Fire PrOtec.
tlOn of the City.

Sometime ago there was consider
able discussion in the city about
granting to the tobacco district locat-
ed just outside of the city fire protec-
tion. At that time the Ways and
Means Committee recommended that
such protection be given the district
but there has been nothing done by
Council as a whole.
Local Fire Insurance agents have
this afternoon received the following
letter from the Kentucky Actuarial
Bureau at Louisville:
There has been some little discus
sion regarding the tobacco district of
your city, which is outside of the city
limits In our re-rating work, which
we expect to take UP soon in Mays
Vile. this district will necessarily
have to be treated as unprotected on
account of its being outside of the
city limits.
81 am going to ask your kind ad-
vises as to the possibility of securing
action on the part of your City Ad-
ministration to bring this district
within fire protection, so that we may
be able in our re-rating to place il
on the same basis as the remainder OF
| Maysville.
MAY we ask your kind advices in
the matter.
yours very truly,
&c. II. PARKER, Manager.

CLASSIFICATION OF
REGISTRANTS BEGUN
Mason County Exemption Board Re-
celyed Master List Last Night and
Has Begun Work Of Classify
ing Large Army of Mason
County Registered
Men,

The Mason County Exemption
Board last night received from Wash
ington the official copy of the Master
List which determines the liability po-
sition of every registered man in Ma
son county,
The board has already begun the
work of classifying the large army OF
registered men in the county having
received all of the questionnaires
properly filled out and they will likely
finish this work within a very few
days. Every man in the county who
registered in the last registration will
receive from the board a card stating
the class into which he has been
placed and a pocket card which he Is
expected to carry.
1t is understood that despite the
fact that many of the men registering
in the last registration were married
and had dependents, the board will
secure quite a number of Glass One
men although the majority of the men
now being classified will be in defer
red classes.
Every man is urged when he re-
ceives his pocket card to guard 1t
carefully and carry it with him at all
times as any officer can demand that
the card be shown and if the card
cannot be shown the man is liable to
arrest and detention until it is estab-
lished he has been properly register
ed. To avoid embarrassment and
trouble carry your pocket card with
you at all times and wherever you go.

IN NEW COUNTY FARM
AGENT

Much interest is being taken in Ma
son county in the selection of Coun-
ty Agent. Many farmers who know
the advantage of a county agent had
feared that with the resignation of Mr..
Boyd as county agent there would be
no one selected to succeed him. 1t is
more than likely that at a meeting Of
the commissioners and the members
of the Agricultural Board on next
Monday a new County Agent will be
selected.

JUDGE PUWNELL SAYS
ALL ABLE-BODlED
men MUST WORK
State Vagrancy Law VIII BE Strictly
Enforced In This County and Men
who WIN Not Work Here
May Be Drafted For Work
at Camp Taylor.

Camp Knox, Stithon, KY. is in need
of a great many men. 1t appears that
unless the necessary labor is secured
within a short time the state of Ken
lucky may lose this camp which
would be nothing less than calamity
for this state.
County Judge II. p. Purnell, who is
chairman of the U. S. Public Service
Reserve in this county, has just re-
ceived the following telegram:
Judge H. p. Purnell, Maysville.
Put forth every effort to secure the
maximum number of men as many
more as possible to take to Camp
Knox, Stithton, Ky, on Tuesday, Oc-
tober Is. l want every county in my
district represented. Let us make
Central district banner district on
this day and save the camp.
WALLACE NJ. PARKER,
District Organizer.
Judge Purnell says that he has in
formation that there are a number of
men over the county who are not ac-
tually engaged in necessary work. The
Judge has received a list of the es-
sential war industries in Maysville
and Mason county and announces that
unless these loafers find employment
in some of the necessary war indus
tries In this county within the next
few days, he will enforce the state
vagrancy law and will draft men for
work on government plants.
Mason county is said to be short of
labor but there are many men about
Maysville and in various parts of Ma
son county who are not engaged in
necessary war work and who should
answer this call for high priced la
borers for Camp Knox and help save
the camp for the state of Kentucky
All who desire to volunteer to go to
Camp Knox should see Judge Purnell
or some member, of the U. S. Public
Service Reserve in this county and
register for call at once.
