NEARLY ALL ASK
TO BE EXEMPTED
FROM JURY DUTY

At a late hour today a circuit
court jury panel had not been COM
pleted, although over a score have
been examined since jurors were
called to report yesterday after
noon at ? O'Clock.
Nearly all called yesterday were
excused by Judge w. 7. Church on
account of necessary farm and
munition work which each gave as
a claim for exemption from jury
duty. At noon today only four of
the new panel had been sworn.
With the impaneling Of a jury
the wheels of justice will once
more begin to turn in circuit court
after Y weeks luII due to the infiu-
enza epidemic.
The first case to be tried will be
that Of the people versus Herman
Reeder, charged with selling intox-
icating liquor in anti-saIoon terri
tory. This case is a prelude to
the resuming of the long list of
liquor cases yet TO be tried In cir
cult court.

Mrs John McEniry, Rock Island
county chairman of the women
committee Of the council of nation
al defense has mailed letters con-
tanning the plans for the work of
the committee. to all her chairmen.

work Of the women during the pres
eut epidemic. Her letter in part is
as follows. AN c. \. D. work is
being pushed aside to help stem
the prevailing epidemic. Your ser
vices as chairmen are absolutely
necessary to secure volunteers for
this work, as the need is unlimited.
When the women's committee, G. N.
D., called upon all patriotic women
to register for whatever emergency
may arise, none knew what that
emergency would be. Today we
do know. What haveayou done to
assist? You have a record of every
womas in your unit in your regis
tration sic Consult this file at
once and secure as many volun-
teers as offered, so that they may
assist in the homes of the sick or
in the Red Cross emergency hos
pital There is a crying need for
trained nurses. practical nurses
and for women who are willing to
do whatever service is necessary
for the care of patients The Wom-
an who volunteers facilitates the
work of the trained nurse immeas-
urably. l certainly hope that you
will lay especial stress on the ne
cessity of immediate action in
whatever manner necessary to al
leviate the suffering IN your local
ity" Mrs McEniry speaks also OF
the community sings that are to be
held all over the country on
Thanksgiving day. She says:
You are urged when conditions
are such that it is possible to ar
range for a victory sing on Thanks
giving day, at 4 p. N. If you are
unable to serve as chairman of such
committee, appoint a chairman
at once to make the necessary ar
engagements. It has been proposed
10 use the following songs for d
part Of the program, SO that each
community may unite with the rest
Of the whole country in a comrade-
ship of melody. The songs pro-
posed are. The Star Spangled
Banner" Come Thou Almighty
King" Holy City; God OF Ali Ma
tons" Song of Liberty" Keep
the Home Fires Burning" The
