BAccALAUREATE SERMON AT
THE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH

Sunday morning at the First Rap
fist church the Baccalaureate sermon
tor the graduating class of the Fitz-
gerald High School was delivered by
Rev. Walter Hendricks, of the Gray
mont Primitive Baptists church. /.
The class of twenty-six was usher
ed into the building by Miss Rosa
Lee Patterson and Mr. Theodore JUS
tiee, president and vice-president of
the Junior class. After several songs
and announcements the speaker was
introduced by Supt. J. E. Ricketson.
Rev. Hendricks informed his con-
gregation at the outset that they
possibly might not like his sermon but
rnat if it pleased God he was enrlrery
satisfied. Although his sermon was
as he said, different from the usual
commencement sermon, it was one
which everyone enjoyed. His text
was from Romans 1:16: "For I am
not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ.
was carried to the hearts and deep in
to the mind of every one. And we
feel sure that the graduates will re-
member this sermon far more because
of its simplicity than had it been 9TH

DOCTORS TO REGISTER

The local physicians have received
requests from the Council of National
Defense for registration for such
service as they may be fitted for,
either for active duty at the front,
duty in training camps or to be reg
istered for strictly home service. In
either case they will receive proper in
sigma, so that they may be known to
which class they belong. The letter
states:
Every physician in the United
States is to be placed in one of three
classes, namely: Medical Reserve
Corps, Volunteer Medical Service
Corps, or those unwilling to do their
patriotic duty.
(A) He must first offer his serv-
ices to the government by applying
for entrance into the Medical Reserve
Corps.
OBJ If he is found disqualified for
active service on account of health
age, civic necessities, or dependents
he is then eligible for the Volunteer
Medical Service Corps, and his rank
will be designated by badge from
the War Department.
(C) Those who do not belong to
either of the above classes will be
known by the lack of uniform or in
sigma.

send through the mails free of post
age notice informing a client that an
installment payment on account of
Liberty Loan Bonds purchased mt the
banks is due; that this is a private
transaction between the bank and its

nish banks with franked cards or en-
velopes for use in sending such no.

All Male Inhabitants Shot.

"a shell burst near the Eleventh

three very severely. At five o'clock we
were ordered by the officer in com
mand of the regiment to shoot all the
male inhabitants of Nomeny. because
the population was foolishly attempt
ing to stay the advance of the German
troops by force of arms. We broke into
the houses, and seized all who resisted
in order to execute them according to
martial law. The houses which had
not been already destroyed by the
French artillery and our own We're set
on fire by us, so that nearly the whole
town was reduced TO ashes. 1t Is ter

ARTISAN WATER
IN CEDAR VALLEY
Messrs. Clakes & Reincr. Two Cali
fornia Well Men, Successful in
Obtaining Good Wells.

Messrs. Clakes & Reiner, two Cal
ifornia we'll men, who have home
steads in this county, have purchased
well rig and have engaged in well
drilling in the Cedar Valley, with CON
siderable success
They have just completed the bor-
ing Of four wells for J. II. Arthur on
his claim about six miles northwest
from this city, and about one mile
north Of the Frank Webster home
stead. One Of the wells was rased
with inch pipe, and at depth of
1870 feet good quantity of water was
struck, which has been pumped at the
rate Of rs gallons per minute for four
hours without diminishing the sup
ply.
Two of the other wells on Mr.. Ar
thurs claim are cased with three inch
pipe, and at about the same depth as
the one above mentioned, produce with
the aid of the pump about 42h gal
Ions each per minute.
The fourth well was driven with
81 inch pipe. The same water STRAIT
UNI was encountered AT about 100 feet
but it was driven on to depth of 1886
feet, where another water stratum
was encountered, but not appearing
any stronger than the one nearer the
surface, the pipe was "shot" at the
upper stratum, and is capable of pro-
ducing about so gallons per minute.
Messrs. Clakes and Reiner have
also recently drilled well for Mr..
Joseph Foster on his farm one mile
east Of the Arthur wells. 21a inch
casing was used in this well and at
depth of 1877 feet a small flow Of
about 10 gallons per minute, was
struck The water from this well al
so rose in a pipe to height of more
than 10 feet above the surface of the
ground. By pumping the output of
this well can undoubtedly be mater
tally increased, if, indeed, it does not
increase of it's own volition in time.
The drillers say that there is big
supply of underground water in the
Cedar Valley, and that it is quite
feasible to irrigate large farms with
subterranean water, with the aid of
pumps.
This being the case it is going to
have wonderfully stimulating effect
upon agricultural pursuits in this sec
ton of the country. For even with
the assurance of getting at small ex-
pense an abundant supply of culinary
water upon the farms throughout the
valley, there will be a great many
more people move onto their land, and
cultivate it in more efficient and
thorough manner.

Too Many Servants in Britain.

Duncan Miller asked the minister of
national service, says the London
Times, whether his attention has been
called to the number of advertisements
for servants in households of one, two
or three persons, where seven to ten
indoor servants are already kept and
whether he proposes to limit the num-
Der of indoor servants employed In
each household. The minister of ma
tional service replied that he had al
ready pointed out how essential II Is,
in the national interest, that no per-
son should employ more servants than
are absolutely necessary. The min.
lister trusts that the awakened CON
sciences of those who have in this
respect failed to appreciate their duty
will provide an immediate and suffi-
Client remedy. If not, he will tell his
plan in the general statement ON man
power.
