IRATE WIVES WANT THEIR
LAZY HUSBANDS DRAFTED,
News and ObserYer.l

Along with a mass of heavy routine
and the necessary tedious work of ar
ranging for the second registration,
the Office of Adjutant General Young
is being daily besieged with letters
from irate spouses urging that their
husbands be drafted into the army.
Most of the letters charge abuse of
deferred classification and most of
them, General Young says, have been
investigated and found to be correct.
When inquiry by local boards con-
firms the statements made in the let
tiers, the registrants is recIassifed
and indicted Immediately into mill
tary service.
The general run of the complaints
reaching the Adjutant General come
from wives Of registrants who have
been given deferred classification be-
cause of dependent families. These,
largely, aver that the registrant is
not supporting his family and, in
short, is a nuisance and much better
suited for the army than Hanging
around"
These are not all, however. Every
mail brings to General Young a cues
ton like this: eve, the UNDERSIGNED,
who have dependent mothers or sis
ters, wives or other relation, are in
class one and we would like to know
why -, whose mother has
enough property to amply support
her sometimes the right for indus
trial classification is challenged), is
in class 80"
The letters are investigated and,
where charges of unfair classification
are substantiated, class one gets an
other recruit.

COUNTY FAIR
PLANS SHAPING
SATISFACTORILY
| Officers Are Elected and Meetings
of All School Districts Called for
Making Fair Plans on June 8.

At a meeting of fair enthusiasts at
the court house last Saturday morn
ing further plans were entered into
for the county fair to be held next
fall.
John Ewbank presented the report
of the steering committee and this
was adopted as presented by Mr.. Ew-
bank, Frank Cathey and Frank
Fleming.
G. F. Bland was elected president
and H. F. Stewart secretary.
following are directors: Frank Pace,
Tom Osborne, j. o. Bell, Frank
Brown.
It was decided to call a meeting to
be held at all the school houses IN
the county on Saturday night, June
8, at 8 o'clock.
Each school district will be re-
ouested to contribute toward n
financial success of the fair. 1t Will
be necessary to raise $500 for the
fair to be distributed in prizes M
expenses. The State Board of Agrl-
culture will give 500 and it is hoped
| that the county commissioners Will
renew their old promise of 500.
Miss Anna Mary Baker, the home
demonstration agent, has written to
the school officials of each district,
requesting them to attend the meet
ing on June 8 and take charge of the
work.
The directors have been instructed
to name three helpers in their respec-
tive districts so as to make the fair
as representative as possible. These
are to name sub committees for the
various departments of the fair.
w. A. Smith has offered the use of
Laurel Park casino for fair purposes
and it is understood that Miss Flor
ence Jordan will offer the lower part
OF Laurel Park Villa for the depart
ment for women. If these offers are
accepted little expense will be en-
tailed in the way OF building houses
for the exhibits.
Those at the meeting Saturday
were determined upon having a good
fair, representative of all sections of
the county and an event in which
the people would take pride-a fair
with nothing of a questionable nature
in the way of amusements.

BUS SERVICE
ARRANGED FOR
LAUREL PARK
MIR. Smith Arranges for TransPOrta-
tion Service to Laurel Park by
Florida Machines Rather Than
Street Cars.

w. A. Smith reports two facts OF
much Importance.
One is that the Laurel Park street
car cannot operate this season, and
why.
The other is, the park will be serV-
ed by up-to-date jitney service.
The city is understood to have
made an order prohibiting the Laurel
Park Street Railway company from
repairing the pavement Of its street
car track on Fifth avenue, except by
the use of bitulithic pavement and
construction, such as has been used
on the other parts of the street. Mr..
Smith says that an investigation will
show that bitulithic pavement of the
kind prescribed cannot be used on
street car tracks, and therefore, the
order of the board has the effect of
prohibiting the repairing of the track
and that the bad, rotten condition of
the track as heretofore paved, pro-
hibits the operation without repairs.
Until the road can be repaired the
cars cannot be operated. An effort
to get the commissioners to modify
this order having failed, he put to
work to prevent temporary disaster
with the success that he has made a
contract with the White Star Auto
company, of Fl. Lauderdale, Fla, to
furnish their large type cars in suffi-
cient number to operate a fifteen
minute schedule, and in a way to take
care of all the work that a heavy sea-
son may produce.
The White Star Auto company peo-
pie have a reputation in Florida and
one here from their service / n past
seasons from He~ndersonville to Ashe-
vile for doing things and doing them
we'll that makes a guarantee that the
bus line from the city to Laurel Park
will be all that a fastidious and pleas
ure loving people can require.
1t is a matter of congratulation
that Hendersonville's play ground,
Laurel Park-claimed to be the
"Most Beautiful Natural Park in
| America"-will be opened and oper-
ated this year under splendid traffic
arrangements and that the amuse-
ments and entertainments at the
park, under the management of Nc
Allister and Gerow, will be ideal, with
many new features under splendid
management.

LIFT YOUR CORNS
. OFF WITH FINGERS
Tells how to loosen a tender corn
or caIIus so it lifts out
without pain.

You reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once a week invited an awful
death from lockjaw or blood poison
are now told by a Cincinnati authority
to use a drug called freezone, which
the moment a few drops are applied
to any corn or callus the soreness is re-
lieved and soon the entire corn or cal
lus, root and all, lifts off with the fin
gers.
Freezone dries the moment it is ap-
piled, and simply shriveIs the corn or cal
lus without infaming or ever irritating
the surrounding tissue or skin. A small
bottle of freezone will cost very little
at any of the drug stores, but will posi-
lively rid ones feet of every hard or
soft corn or hardened callus. If your
druggist hasn't any freezone he can get
it at any wholesale drug house for you,

GIRLS! LEMON JUICE
( is A SKIN WHITENER
How to make a creamy beauty lotion
for a few cents.

The juice of two fresh lemons strained
into a bottle containing three ounces of
orchard white makes a whole quarter
pint of the most remarkable lemon skin
beautifier at about the cost one must
pay for a small jar of the ordinary cold
creams. Care should be taken to strain
the lemon juice through a fine cloth so
no kmon pulp gets in, then this lotion
will keep fresh for months. Every
woman knows that lemon juice is used

1reckles, s~allowness and tan and is
the ideal skin softener, whitener and
beautifer.
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any drug store and
two lemons from the grocer and make up
q quarter pint of this sweetly fragrant
lemon lotion and massage it daily into
&he face, neck, arms and hands.

MASONS MAKE
WAR APPEAL

In view of the increasing acuteness
of the food problem, and the desper-
ate Importance of finding some means
to relieve the situation the local
Masonic lodge has issued the follow
ing statement with the request that
it be published in the local papers:
Kedron Lodge, No. 387, A. F. &
A. NJ, urgently appeals to all of it's
members to use their utmost efforts,
/ by precept and still more by example,
to promote the increased production
and the most careful conservation of
food.
In Europe there is a terrible short
age of food caused by the depletion
of man power and the diversion of
the survivors from the fields to the
armies. Furthermore thousands of
tons of food have been destroyed by
submarines. In the past three and a
half years there have been millions of
deaths from hunger Or from diseases
caused or aggravated by hunger.
The shortage of farm labor is be-
ginning to be felt in this country and
will become more acute. And, at a
time when it is becoming increasing
ly difficult to feed ourselves, we are
| called upon to feed half of Europe.
And we must respond to the appeal.
We are impelled to do so by human
ity (for it is inhuman not to relieve
distress), by gratitude (for our allies
have for nearly four years sheltered
US behind the barrier of their bleed
ing and mangled bodies), and by self
interest (for we need our allies to
help US win the war, and they cannot
fight without food).
We must feed ourselves. We must
feed our soldiers in France. And We
must help feed our allies. In order
to accomplish this, it is necessary
1. To increase production. Practi-
cally everybody in our community
can help in this.
2. To eliminate waste. In the easy
prosperity which we have hitherto
enjoyed, about 80 per cent of our
food has been wasted. Under pres
ent conditions, waste is a sin against
God and man.
3. To economic in transportation.
This means to live as far as, possible,
on such food as can be produced in
our own community, thus relieving
railroad congestion.
i. To abstain as far as possible
from consuming exportable food, and
to use, in place thereof, such foods
as cannot easily be expected. This
means, among other things, to con-
fine our consumption of meat (in-
Guiding poultry to less than two
pounds per week per capita, and as
far as possible to abstain from wheat
until the next crop comes in. The
man OF oma who is unwilling to
undergo a little inconvenience in this
hour of crisis and agony, is not worth
fighting for.
Kedron Lodge calls upon all it's
members to take due notice of the
four points above mentioned and to
govern themselves accordingly. The
need is urgent; and a failure to face
the facts now will bring US to acute
privation in the near future.

Raising Funds For )
81 Crittenden Home

The Florence Crittenden Home
and training school at Fargo is about
$4,000 behind in their funds this year,
according to Miss Elizabeth c. Biggs,
national field secretary for the Flor
enc Crittenden mission, who is here
now on her annual tour of the state.
Owing to the many demands for
donations Of money and clothing in
other directions. the donations to the
Fargo institution have materially de-
creased this year. Miss Biggs stated
that she is looking for this section of
the state to help make up the shors-
age. A number of the young women
in the home are i'll al the present
time with influenza and pneumonia.
and the expenses are very heavy
there.
A GIVE and Get a Dollar Club"
was organized this summer in con-
nection with the raising Of funds for
the Crittenden mission. This clu5 is
composed of and the plan is
for a woman to give a dollar and get
a dollar from a friend, who in turn
gets a dollar, thus extending the cir
Gle. The aim is 100000 from the
women Of the state for the erection
of a nursery and a school. The nur-
Sery is needed for the care of chill
dren while their mothers are fitting
themselves for positions in which they
earn their living. The nursery and
school will be entirely taken care of
through this fund.
