z MORE DAYS TO
OBTAIN QUOTA

An extension of time to midnight,
June 5, has been granted the Wayne
township thrift stamp organization in
which to raise the weeks thrift stam:
quota of $4,000. The quota was as
signed for the week ending Monday
night.
State Director Joseph D. Oliver
wired Joseph H. Mills, county chair

ion of time.

lieved that the two additional days

continuing to augment their sales,
Mr.. Mills announced, and are already
$4,000 over the quota of the town
ships outside. Most of the townships
will have their quotas oversold by

eff only the manufacturers, jobbers,
merchants and all organizations and
citizens financially able" the county
chairman said, would fall in right
now and handle the proposition on a
basis of an investment Of $1,000,
Wayne township and Wayne county
would be able to maintain credibly
the enviable standard she has hereto
fore maintained.
IAN urgent appeal is hereby made
to all the patriotism of Wayne county
to come to the rescue of the honor flag
which must be ours. The homes of
Wayne township will now have until
Wednesday to mail their subscrip-
tions to c. B. Beck, postmaster The
privilege to set the time for the deliv-
cry of these stamps by carrier has
been extended to July /, if desired, in
stead of June 5, as stated in the form
letter. This morning mail brought
many subscriptions to MIR. Beck, and
we are urging every patriotic home in
Wayne township to send in their sub
scriptions at once"

Many do little more than
throw the bundles together and
call it a shock. Often this is
done with the false notion that

There are several good
ways of making a shock. 1t is
important, first, to have a def

bundles in "any old place"
where there seems to be room;

DEAN WITHDRAWS

Atlanta, Ga, July with the

for the United States Senate, the re-
port is again current that William
Schley Howard may get out. Close
friends of Howard deny that he has
any such step in view, but it is known
that his candidacy has not developed
the strength which they have antici-
pated.
Colonel Dean, according to his for
NAL statement issued yesterday, quits
the race on account of his health and
on the advice of his physician, Prior
to his statement, he was compelled
TO call off his speaking tour and has
been confined to his bed for two

Conscientious Directors
Decide to Go
Into Fighting Branches

Conscientious objection to military
service may be brushed aside by
friendly argument and reason the
War Department learns through re-
ports from Maj. Richard c. Stoddard.
Judge Julian W. Mack, Chicago, and
Dean Harlan F. Stone, Columbia Uni
versity Law School, a board design
ed by Secretary of War Baker to con-
fer personally with such DIRECTORS at
the training camps.
At Camp Gordon, Atlanta, there
was an unusually large number OF
men segregated as DIRECTORS. Kindly
logic used by the special board result
ed in II of the number accepting non
combatant service, and II withdrew
objection or announced they had mis-
understood the original question.
The board accepted as sincere the
convictions of q members OF relig-
ious denominations opposed to any
form of military service and recon-
mended them for furlough at pri-
Yates pay. There was doubt in four
cases and the board recommended the
men be sent to Fort Leavenworth for
further examination.
Fifty-four men failed to convince
the board of their inability to take up
military service without violation Of
their consciences and must accept
service specified for them by the com
handing officer or stand court-mar-
tia1. Eight claimed to be citizens oil
enemy countries but had no way Of
substantiating their claims and it was
held should not be so classed. The
board failed to examine four other:
who were in hospital.

Medical Department
Has Mobile Apparatus
to Provide Fresh Water.

The American soldier in France
gets pure drinking water from mobile
water trains. The trains are under
the jurisdiction of the Army Medical
Department. They are miniature
water works. which chemically treat.
filter, and sterilize water, making it
fit for consumption. What municipal
water works do to insure healthful
water to the people of a city these
trains do for the soldiers.
A number of publication units with
attached motor-tank trucks constitute
a train. Each unit is a complete fit
ration plant including laboratory. Ar
irving at stream it sets hose into
the water and pumps the water
through pressure tank. Before the
water passes through sand filter it
is treated chemically to rid it of dis
ease germs. The pure water is pump
ed into tanks mounted on trucks,
which carry the water to the soldiers.
Each mobile water unit carries all
expert chemist, bacteriologist, and
pump man. There is a complete lab
oratory in the front of the machine
for the testing O. the water. Tests
are made every two hours or more
often when it is thought necessary.
The water is lifted into the filter by
gasoline pump engine, and COM
plcte supply of extra pipes and tools
are carried so that all repairs, either
from accident or shell fire, can be
made on the spot. The trucks are
equipped with electrict lights so that
the work can be carried on at night.
Many of the chemists and bacteriolo-
gists assigned to the mobile labora-
tories were formerly connected with
municipal water works and filtration
plants

Ensign Stephen Potter, United

in action with German planes April
Is last, was the first American naval
| aviator to shoot down and destroy a
German seaplane, according to navy
| department statement
The report states that on March
10, 1918 long-distance reconnaissance
of the German coast was made by
large American flying boats operating
from British Royal Air Force sta
ton. Ensign Potter was one of two
American naval aviators accompany
ing this expedition, and Potter was
successful i'll shooting down a German
seaplane which attacked the recon-
Nuisance formation. A second enemy
seaplane found safety in running
away.
Potter's death reflects credit on his
courage. He was killed in fight with
seven enemy single-seaters. He was
! second pilot to a British Air force
captain, who was with him when he
shot down the German plane in
March Two British planes had flown
to point miles from Hinder Light,
when two enemy planes headed to-
ward them. The British planes closed
on the nearest German and opened
fire. Two more hostile planes then
appeared overhead and attacked Wig
orously, while three other enemy
planes passed astern The two Brit
ish planes Owed and speeded west

appeared.

were attacking Potter. who fell be-
hind his companion and began to zig
gag. Potter lodged, but was broad

under their fire only so feet from the
water. His companion, $50 feet above
saw Potter's machine burst into flame
come down part of the way under

face OF the water amid flames, which
turned suddenly TO huge cloud of
