Boys Working Reserve-Ai the

recommendation of the State De-
fense Council, Director r.. X.
Bliss was recently appointed Fed
eral State Director OF the Boys
Working Reserve, operating un-
der the supervision Of the U. S.
Department of Labor.
Tho Boys Working Reserve is
being organized on a nationwide
basis from boys not eligible to
the National army, between the
ages Of Is and 81 years. The
purpose of the Reserve is TO es-
lablish reserve of labor for
farm and other work from which
may he drawn workers not ordin-
arily available to care for the
emcrgent shortage of labor which
is steadily becoming more acute.
Plans for a Harrison county or
ganization of the Boys Working
Reserve arc now under way. III is
hoped that these may be an
nounced in an early issue.

STEVEN MOORE,

Probably the oldest man in
Harrison county died at his home
near Woodbine, Monday, January
"a, in his 9th year. He was
born in New York state December
2i, 1924. There he lived the life
OF a farmer till about 1868, when
he came west with his sons, To-
eating on farm in the Pigeon
Valley, east of Woodbine, which
has since been his home He was
twice married. His first wife
bore him two sons and three
daughters. His second gave him
two more sons. These, his chill
dren, are all living, with the re-
scendants down to the fourth gen
Grafton. Mr.. Moore was typical
pioneer. always rugged and never
ill. He enjoyed life and health to
the limit and did his own work to
the last. G. b. Moore of the
Busy Bee cafe, is ne phew. The
funeral and burial was in Wood
bins Wednesday.

THE DEVIL.

The Devil sat by the lake of fire
On a pile of sulphur kegs;
His head was bowed upon his
breast,
His tail between his legs.
"A look of shame was on his face,
The sparks dropped from his
eyes.
He sent his resignation
To the throne up in the skies.
Tim down and out, the Devil said
And he said it with a sob;
There are others now who have
me beat
And want to quit my job.
He'll isn't in it any more
With the land along the Rhine
I'm a has-been and a piLer,
Therefore | resign.
One ammunition maker
With his bloody shot and she'll,
Knows more about damnation
Than all the imps in He'll.
Give the job TO The kaiser,
The author OF this war,
He understands il better,
A million times by far.
1 hate TO leave the old home,
The spot | love so we'll,
But feel that I'm not up to date
I'm the art Of running He'll.

COAL SITUATION SERIOUS.

IHe coal Sllu1IlOn IN HARRISON
county is becoming serious. Mo-
dale and Mondamin are reported
to be about out of coal. while
Woodbine and Dunlap are now
asking for help. Missouri Valley
has been Very fortunate so far,
Dut now long our supplies will
list is problematical. The coal
dealers report enough coal on
hand for immediate needs, but no
surplus to furnish other towns.
While the merchants are trying
to find ways and means of con-
serving coal by closing earlier
and turning off their radiators.
we believe the churches and
schools could join i'm the CAM
paisn to good advantage.
Wouldn't it be possible for all
the protestant churches to unite
their Thursday and Sunday eve
ming services for the next two
months, and avoid heating the
various buildings in the evening? I?
1t might take some little figuring
to work this plan out, but they
arc doing it in other places and
it could be worked here.
Another thing that would ma
terially help conserve fuel would
be to close the schools during the
month of February and then dis
pense with the vacation during
Easter and hold school as much
longer i'm June as is necessary to
complete the school year. Satur-
days, too, could be given over to
school work and the months va
cation made up by June list.
These are but suggestions
which, if acted on now, will place
Missouri Valley in the list of
towns that arc doing all in their
power to whip the kaiser, hut if
we wait until we are compelled to
do these things, we become one
of tho don't care towns.

GOODWIN PERKINS DIES.

Goodwin Perkins, fifteen years
ago one OF the most deservedly
popular young men in Missouri
Valley. but since then engaged in
Y. NJ. C. A. work in the suburbs
OF Chicago. died suddenly there
Monday morning. He was aged
some so years and a widower.
The wife he married there twelve
years ago bore him one son and
died. His sister Clara has since
been his housekeeper and COM
panion.
His father, B. P. Perkins, and
his brother Bert left for Chicago
Monday evening. His mother died
many years ago.
Goodwin had risen in his work
as a Y. NJ. C. A. secretary till he
sat in council with the leaders of
that beneficent organization and
often refused promotion to larger
fields of labor that he might be
with his chosen flock in La
Grange.
That he should be taken at this
time when the call for such mon
as he is so urgent is indeed
strange. yet he had lived and la
bored long enough as one of
score of Harrison county boys
who have made good in Chicago,
to deserve a high place on the
roll of honor, warm place in the
hearts of all who knew him and
an enduring name among those
who gave their lives for the good
of their fellowmen in the militant
ranks of a militant age.

cord,
When love has bound tlN heart.
'Tis hard. so hard to speak thy
words,
We must forever part.
Dearest love, we must lay thee,
In thy peaceful graves en-
brace;
But thy memory will be cher.
Till we see thy tender face.
Thy gentle voice now is hushed
Thy warm true heart is still.
And on thy old and gentle brow
Is resting deaths cold chill.
Thy hands are clasped upon thy
breast,
We have kissed thy loving
brow,
And in our aching hearts we know
We have no loved one now.
Call not hack thy dear departed,
Anchored safe where storms
are DER,
On thy border land we left her,
Soon TO meet and part,no more.

On the spurious article, the en-
