We have just held great naval and
military meet at Madison square Gar

this remarkable unit, which has sailed
10 do such valuable work in France.
Every person in il, even to the plumb
ers and mechanics, are women, and
they volunteered for dangerous service.
Other branches Of our war service
have been an intensive food conserya-
ton campaign and the War-Sayings
Stamps campaign. In all this active
fbafrf6tic work we teel Inspired with
Mrs. Norman der Whitehouse, abroad
on an important government mission
and many others of the rank and file

Another interesting branch of our
work is the great university extension
of citizenship. Schools are being held
throughout the state under our Educa-
tinDai Committee.
Intelligence Committee. which lists Of
Gcials of all political parties and all
men In every township and county in
the state who have run or are to run
for Office. 1t is believed this commit
zee will become extremely intelligent
rs time goes on, and its intelligence
will react on the civic welfare of the
state most tellingly.
Our AmericanizatlOn Committee has
issued some very effective and educa-
tional literature and is organizing in
every center and community where
here are foreign groups.
Maintaining Morale.
We realize that great part of ma
lions war time efli"ieicy is in keeping
life normal and efficient at home. H.
the last analysis that nation which
keeps most nearly steady and norual
in it's Industrial and domestic life will
maintain that morale which will win
the war for il.
The work of the Rural Problems
Committee perhaps is Of particular in
tercst In this publication which is be
ing sent out by the National Security
League. Very few people In the coun-
try have stopped to realize how in our
body polite the rural committees are
Disseminated against IN the matter Of
socializing forces. Our great cities
have their amusements. their mun.ci-
pal halls and baths, their community
kitchens. their public libraries ard lee
ture courses and innumerable settle
mpnts and clubs where people are
drawn together and stimulated men
tally and spiritually. We feel that
some of these advantages should be
brought to the country districts.

WANTS BOARD OF TRADE TO
ACT ON TIME CHANGE

Concerning the question of changing
time in the village next Sunday, Mr.
A. L. Boyden of the A. ]. Root Co.
sent the following letter to L. F. Gar
yer secretary of the Board of Trade
suggesting that possibly that organ
ization might desire to take some &C
ton herewith:
October %, 1918.
Mr.. L. F. Carver,
Medina, o.
Dear Sir:
presume you remember my
preference for Eastern time. Nat
urally then you will understand
nv interest when / read in yes
terday's Cleveland papers that
Cleveland will retain Eastern time
on account of the decision of the
Interstate Commerce Commission,
placing it in the Eastern time
zone.
whether we so regard it, Me-
dina is practically a Cleveland
suburb. Perhaps, our Board OF
Trade should give immediate con-
sideration to the question as to
whether Medina will have the
same time as Cleveland or not. OF
course, it is too bad to discuss the
old question of time, but in as
much as Cleveland will have fast
time from now on, it seems in
evitable that the subject must be
discussed and if we could get in
line with Cleveland right now, 1T
might put the discussion out OF
the way perhaps for years.
Very truly yours,
A. l.. Boyden.
Secretary Carver announced Thurs
day afternoon that he was undeclde
about calling meeting Of the Boar
at this time on account of the infiu
enza epidemic, altho he might con
clude to do so before Sunday.
