F. Guffey, the defeated gubernatorial
candidate. This announcement was
made after Judge Bonniwell returned
from the western end of the state.
The Philadelphia Record says: 1T
is understood that Judge Bonniwell
has put forward the names of Fred
ericks and Gross as the type of DEM
ocrat he desires to head the state
committee. Fredericks. it was ex-
planned, has been county chairman in
Lehigh several terms and his record
for leading his party to victory is de-
clared to be exceptionally good. Gross
has been city solicitor at Allentown
for about eight years and he is con-
sidered one of the best of the Lehigh
county Democratic leaders. Although
it is known that Guffey will not be
candidate for the office of state
chairman, several of the so-called
state leaders are opposing the plan to
put an active man at the head of the
state organization. Judge Bonniwell
| is insistent, however, upon the selec-
ton of chairman who will repre-
sent the rank and file of the Demo-
Gratis of the state and one who is
known as a vote-getter. 1t is pointed
out that in recent years the chairman
of the Democratic state committee
have not been very active in waging
| state campaigns"

Thrift in Youth

At the state meeting. of the Daugh.
ters of the Revolution in GAINESVILLE,
in November, Mrs. John Mcmillan,
Milwaukee chapter chairman of war
economy, asked the representatives
from the thirty or more chapters to
write letters. The first answer came
from Mrs. Warren Scott Rundell Of
Beloit, who wrote on Thrift in Youth.
1t follows:
During the campaigns for the
last two Liberty Loans, l tried to
help out little by talking to the
children in the public schools and l
was truly surprised at the thrift
found in the little flock. | believe
their desire to help the great cause
and their JOY in our victory, has
been a great factor in the home, the
fire and courage of youth has in
many cases stirred the lukewarm
elders in the home, especially in
those homes where mothers, foreign
born. were perhaps little slow to
understand that even their mite
counted and that it was duty and a
privilege to give.
"The teachers have planted the
seed in the minds of our children in
the public schools and the American
desire to go ahead needs little urg-
ing | found with the children, as
with their elders, nothing succeeds
like success, and when one school
room went lover the top the chill
dren in all the other schooIrooms
worked like tigers, until they too,
could shout, We're over the top"
| said in one room: Il wonder
how many would be willing to give
/ up chewing gum for the present
and the pennies used for gum be
used for buying thrift stamps" One
boy in the front seat, frantically
waving his hand, said, "No, I amt
chewed gum for long time and I
get more thrift stamps than whole
lot of fellers | know" Then said,
"Who is willing to wear old clothes
and patched shoes" and the whole
class began frantically waving hands
and then pointing to patches on
shoes. coats and dresses. One little
girl kept her hand persistently wav-
ing. / asked her what she wanted
to say and she told me she washed
and ironed her own hair ribbons and
made them last long time and that
she had lots Of thrift stamps.
"And so it was, the same enthusi-
asm and joy in giving as ! went from
room to room and | said to myself,
verify we may learn from the
children, seIf-sacrifce and the joy of
giving, and never doubt the thrift
in young people"

OBITUARY

; Tyrus Jay Lunger was born
March 9th, 1887, on the Cornish
farm just east of town. His early
life was spent on the home farm
FIVE miles east of River Falls. In
May, 1898, he moved with his par
ents to their home on the West
Side. Jay had always been lover
of nature and country life appealed
to him and so he was restless until
he found his way back again to the
farm; for eleven years he divided
his time between the two Taylor
farms just west of town, where he
was so we'll thought of that he was
counted as one of the family. Early
in the summer of 1915 he came back
to town and since that time has
made his home with his parents.
October 3rd, 1917, he was called
to the colors and though it was
hard for him to leave home where
he was SO much needed on account
of his fathers severe accident he
set himself resoluteIy to the task
and for three months faithfully per.
formed the tasks assigned him in
the service of his country.
He was first cook of Company D
341st Infantry stationed at Camp
Grant. The last of December, 1917,
he received an honorable discharge
and came home to assume the re-
spons;bilities of the head of the
family all of which he faithfully
discharged till the time of his de-
cease.
He was taken sick with the Span
ish Influenza Nov. 81 and this was
afterward complicated by meningi-
tbs; he died-at 5:45 p. m. Dec.5 aged
81 years, eight months and twenty
six days.
He was member of the Forest
ers Lodge and until recently of the
Modern Woodmen lodge. He leaves
to mourn his loss besides his par
ents, three brothers, Henry, Ray
and Glen, and three sisters, Mrs.
Arthur Muckenhausen of Saltwater,
