Tho world discarded $4,000 tons of
automobile tires during 1916. Adding
to this the large number of bicycle tire
thrown away every year by their own
ers. it appears that the world spends
every year at least $500. 000, 900 for
pneumatic tires alone. Nearly 10000
automobiles are now in use i'm the
United States. To supply these with
tires nearly 10000 o of India rubber

which is worse than confusion. A
fact of much Importance Is that
there will be arrears of work which
it will take us years to make up,
even in manufacture. A great diff
ficulty will be raw material; where
10 get it and how to get it. Anoth.
er difficulty will be transport. ana
you will find that during the first
years of peace there will be diff
culties that will require eOnsidera-
tiOn of q totally different character
even from that which has been pre-
dicted in the very able speeches
which have been delivered here TO-
day. These questions will demand
the most careful consideration. You
will require the most complete un-
with our dOminiOns,
because it is important that you
should carry along with you the
people vino have contributed with
you to the common sacrifice.
Reconstruction of men disabled
in the service is another activity
carried on by the Red Cross over
seas. On an average of about 10
artificial limbs are distributed by
the organization every month, with
every effort being made to extend
this service. These artificial limbs,
with a period of care
full training, will enable the men to
take an active part in the indus
trial life of the country when they
return from abroad.

CANVASS ELECTION RETURNS.
Some Things Revealed by the OF.
ficial Count.

County Clerk Markham, assisted
by Judges Kirkpatrick and Fuller,
started the official canvass of the
vote of PrOwers county in the re-
cent election on Monday but owing
10 some OF the usual mistakes of
the judges which had to be recti-
fied could not announce the result
until today; too late for publication.
Very little change from the unOf-
licial figures published last week
was made. That the Register was
vindicated in claiming that Prov
ers county also had a twin" CAM
paign was proven by the voters
themselves who elected Messrs.
tshodes and Mayfield by exactly
the same majority, l50 each. In
the Lamar Justice precinct Judge
kirkpatrick and Deeter, and Con-
stables Watson and RhOdenbaugh
were reelected. Judge Thornton
Green made fine race, receiving
z59 votes.
All the initiated bills carried here
by large maj0rities, showing that
people voted for the high-sOunding
titles regardless Of contents. Even
the sO-called Merit-System, especial
ly designated to enable the men
who staid at home to hold their
Jobs against the returning soldier
boys, only had cOrporars guard
of votes against 1t, although the
county is supposed to have q large
and active Parents of Soldiers and
Sailors league. The "Bone-Dry" bill
carried by vote of 1891 to 573, and
Immediately all Of the latter and q
big per cent Of the former applied

lily as the printers joke.-Lamar

Treasury officials said Monday
that expenses of about $1.500, 100000

through the winter with another
war loan in the spring and that
the billions of dollars to be prOvid-

financing of the great task OF re
building war.tOrn sections of Eu-
rope is not yet formulated.
The governments financial agent
in many reconstruction measures
will be the war finance corporation,
whose powers congress will shortly
be asked to broaden to enable 1t
to advance funds to enterprises es-
santital for peace, the industries
converting from war to normal prod
uction and possibly even rebuilding
ventures abroad. Expenditures, ap-

MRS. A. G.. CARTER.

Mrs. A. c. Carter passed away at
her home in this city Tuesday morn
ing, February 26th, 1918, following
an extended illness. Over year ago
Mrs. Carter suffered stroke of par
alysis, and since that time she was in
a helpless condition, and was tender
ly cared for by her daughter, Mrs,
Miner. ....
Funeral services will be held at
the Methodist Episcopal church on
Thursday afternoon, at 2 o'clock.
The services will be in charge Of her
pastor, Rev. c. X. Hudson. Inter-
ment will be made in Oakland ceme-
terry.
Elizabeth Cleveland was born in
Danville, New York, December 2Sth,
1910. She came to Rockford, Illi-
noois in 1857, where she was united
in marriage with Mr.. A. c. Carter
on December 25th, 1861. Soon after
their marriage Mr.. Carter enlisted in
the army, and served until the close
of the war Following the close Of
the war they came to Manchester,
which has been their home since.
Mrs. Carter was a member Of the
I. O..G. T. from 1876 to 1879, the w.
r. c.; the w. c. T. U. and the Metho-
dist Episcopal church, and took a
prominent part in the activities of
all of the organizations to which she
belonged. She united with the Meth
odist church in 1868, and during these
many years she not only exemplitied
the teachings Of her church in words,
but in the many kindly deeds she
performed.
Her husband passed away on Febru-
ary 9th. 1917, and previous to his
death he too, lay on bed of sickness
for an entire year, after having suf-
fered stroke of paralysis.
Mrs. Carter is survived by one
daughter, Mrs. J. G. Miner, of this
city; one sister, Mrs. Helen Law
renee of Pasadena, California; one
brother, j. S. Cleveland, of San Diego,
California. She is also survived by
one granddaughter, Mrs. John l..
Bear, of Indianapolis, Indiana, and
other near relatives and host Of
intimate friends.
Those who mourn for Mrs. Carter
have the sincere sympathy of friends
in this hour of sorrow.

| FOrty-eight more Delaware county
boys marched away under "Old Glory
last Saturday morning. 1t was a most
impressive sight, especially when it
was remembered that throughout this
vast country similar squads were
marching away to add an immense
number, in the aggregate, to our fight
ing forces More than 200 boys have
gone from Delaware county into ac-
tive service of their country. This is
more than one per cent of our popu-
lation, taken from the best of our
young manhood. Is any argument
needed to justify the asking of one
per cent of our money to take care
of our boys?
The families which have given men,
bers to the service will not be back
ward about giving more than their
share to provide for their comforts
n health, in sickness and when wound
ed. Will those of us who areN not
called upon to give our sons allow
our neighbors to give their sons and
also give more money than we do?
The only fair basis is for each to
give an equal share accordingato his
ability and the sentiment expressed
generally throughout the county is

that it will be a great relief for the
contributor to be able to give def
mite amount to take care of all war
relief funds with the knowledge that
it is his share, is sufficient for the
needs, and will be wisely apporrioned
among the various organizations.
