SALE
Being ARRANGED

H. w Gilbert, federal food admin
istrator for Wayne county attended
conference held by DR.. H. e. Barnard
federal food administrator for Indi-
ana, and 1t was made a matter OF
publicity that Mr.. Irwin of the grain
division of the federal food admins
tration, is endeavoring to arrange
some way to dispose of the substitutes
which were used and are now in the
hands of those handling flour. These
substitutes will have to be sold in car
load lots and II there is grocer who
has small amount it will be neces-
sary for him to get in touch with 9TH
er grocers and pool their amounts TO
make up car lots. In a short time a
plan will be perfected and dealers in
flour who have substitute on hand
can get the necessary Information at
the Wayne county federal food admin
istrators office. In order to facilitate
matters it would be well for the grOc-
ers and dealers in flour and substitute
to take an inventory of their substi-
tutes and get ready for the distribu-
ton II they care to do SO.
1t was also announced at the con-
ference for volunteer food workers at
Indianapolis Thursday that 1t is no
longer necessary for grocers to make
sugar report. but that he will have
to devise some plan to keen check
on the sugar that he is selling to the
consumer, from the fact that when
the sugar certificates have been cash
ed and he runs out of sugar before
the next certificates are sent him
there will be no more sugar for him
until it is time for the next allotment.
Therefore it was given out at the con-
ference that it would be necessary
for the grocers to keep strict ac-
count of the sugar given out to the
consumer.

ANOTHER LINDBERGH TOPPLE

An Associated Press bulletin from
Washington yesterday said: "The
War Industries board today announc-
ed tht Charles A. Lindbergh of Min
nesota will not be given a position
with the board, although he has been
under consideration"
That tells lot. 1t indicates be-
yond question that if the loyal peo-
pie of Minnesota had not made them
selves heard in Washington Lindbergh
would have been given war board
position. But the burst of indigna-
ton from Minnesota was so quick and
so strong that those who would have
perpetrated this utrage were unable
to "put it over.
1t does not appear beyond question
who tried to get this fellow, so late
ly repudiated for disloyalty by the
people of Minnesota, into a govern
ment job, but it has been intimated
that George Creel is to blame for
the effort. The suspicion is not un-
reasonable and will probably stick
unless Creel can prove on "alibi".
And while it lasts it serves to in
crease the mystery which covers the
fact of CreePs retention in a position
where he is a constant handicap to
the administration.
But the conviction Of Creel on this
suspicion would not acquit others on
whom he would have to bring influ-
ence to bear to secure consideration
of the appointment. Nobody in high

crawled. We got all the "sniping" we
wanted at his machine gunners and

way they used to fight in the Boer

In one place we were crawling

were held up by machine gun fire.
Well his six and eight inch guns be-

move a muscle for an hour or more.
Just lay there and take it. At last we
located his machine guns and rushed
them, putting the gunners out of bu-

On one occasion in the early morn

up holler and told that crew a few
things regarding their intelligence.
Quite a number Of the prisoners
spoke English and we found out that
they have been fed an awful line
regarding their victories and our de-
feats etc. A lot of them surrendered
with loaf of bread under their arm
as they had been told that we were
short of grub and thought we would
MT be able to feed them. They never
knew the Canadians we're opposite

they found out they just lost all heart
