MAN POWER

We read much of man power these
days; human power is a better term, be-
cause it emphasizes the fact that the wo-
men and children also constitute great
factor in this war. In the final victory
every man, woman and child in America
can and should have a part.
In comparing the man power of Ger
many with that Of the United States it
must be borne in mind that 9 much larg-,
err proportion Of the manual labor Of the
man power Of the nation is performed, is
exerted by the German women than by
the women of America. It is said that in
peace times the women constituted AZ per
cent of the agricultural and industrial la
Or Of Germany They work in the fields
in the factories, in the mines, at the very
hardest and most laborious tasks, doing
the work only done by men in this coun-
try. With a great proportion of the err
man men in the army, it is not improbable
that women now constitute by far the
larger half of German manual labor.
The women of the United States are
nobly, unselfishly, manfully, one may say,
bearing their share ofthe burdens of war.
BY the grace Of God and the power and
courage Of America the fate Of the Ger
man women is not and never will be
theirs. But it will be with their assist
ance and cooperation and their full as
sumption Of the burdens and duties of the
day that the United tSates is to exert its
full power in riddin CHE world Of that in
tolerable German kultur which makes
brute soldiers Of the men and slaves of
the women. ,sW aA

TO TURN CLOCKS BACK
HOUR, SUNDAY, OCT. 27

Regular trains on all railroads un-
der federal administration will lay
over in stations one hour during the
night of Saturday, Oct. 26, waiting for
their regular schedules to catch up
with them. For at 2 a. M, October
27 the country goes off the daylight
saving plan and works back to regu-
lar standard time. The Director Gen
eral of Railroads has issued an order
that all railroad clocks and watches
should be turned back one hour at 2
a. M, October 27, and that regular
trains then must be held to conform
to schedules after the change in time
By moving the nations clocks aheac
one hour 1,250,O00 tons of coal have
been saved in seven months, the fue
administration announced last Mon
day.
Figures on the savings were deter
mined by keeping close watch on the
operation of the plan in various com
munities. Definite facts were gath
cred in a city of about one million POI
ulation, in which it was shown tina
the consumption of coal under th'
plan was seventeen and half tom
less per 1000 population during th'
seven months than the consumption
during like period of previous years
These figures were checked agains
records obtained from other commun
tiles in widely separated districts hav
ing the same relative conditions.

STRUCK BY B. & 0. TRAIN;
LODI MAN IS KILLED

Wheeler Robinette, Of Lodi, suffered
an accident that resulted fatally when
he drove over the B. 4 O. tracks near
the Garden Isle onion fields late Tues
day afternoon.
The onion topper was making such
noise that he did not hear the ap-
proach Of the evening train from Woos
ter. The latter hit the team and front
part of the wagon squarely, carrying
both more than a hundred yards be-
fore the train could be stopped. Both
horses were killed. Robinette was SO
badly injured that he was taken to
the Lodi hospital, but besides his other
injuries, his skull was fractured and
nothing availed to save his life. lie
died early Wednesday morning
Wheeler Robinette was employed as
teamster by the Horr-Warner Co..
and lived in one of the company houses
This accident is inexpressibly sad since
wife and six children, the youngest
of which is only two weeks old, are
left without support.
This is the second fatality that
has occurred within two weeks at tht
same place, the first one being tht
death Of Clayton McDermott, who wa'
killed by lightning while driving II
with a load of onions.

at least in Medina county, is that there
has been a very great increase in the
number of buyers, noticeable in each
successive loan since the first. This
would indicate that the people gener-
ally now understand the exact nature
of bond; the fact that they are not
donating their money, but are merely
loaning it at a liberal rate of interest,
under the strongest safeguard in the
world.
In promoting the fourth loan in this
county, the latter was equipped with a
mighty strong organization, each. town
ship having band of workers who
subordinated their own business to
that of their governments, with but
the one aim in view. The result Of
their efforts is best told in the cold
figures ait the head Of this column. II

County Chairman Blake Mcdowell
who says, (and we believe it), that
until last Saturday night he had moi
experienced decent nights sleep dur
ing the three weeks campaign, was or
the job early and late, and the sue
cess of the campaign is in no small
degree attributable to his direction
and untiring labor, albeit he was for

INFLUENZA SITUATION
remains ABOUT same

While there have been several new
cases of influenza in Medina and vicin-
ity the past week, and two deaths, in
the opinion Of the local physicians the
epidemic has gained no appreciable
headway, many Of those previously
ilit heinas
public meeting nlaces Still raitllairi
closed and Health Officer Harding
says he will not lift the ban until all
doubt of a recurrence of the disease
has disappeared. ..
The Red Cross has samples of the
gauze flu masks in the windows of the
Ziegler store, the Warner-Hemmeter
Co., and DeArmitt's Department store.
These masks may be made at home,
or the Red Cross will supply them on
request at the above mentioned stores.
| There is no occasion for panic, but
there is great necessity for every pre-
caution. Anyone caring for the sick,
or any one liable to exposure, should
wear the gauze mask.
Directions for the use of masks:
Tie mask securely above the ears and
under chin. Wear mask during the
| day, and change for fresh one at
night. Keep masks not in use, thoro
ly sterilized, and keep in an air-tight
receptacle. Always wear mask so
that the side with the black thread
comes on the outside, to avoid the side
saturated with germs coming in con-
tact with the mouth and nose.

ly every community in the state since
it's first appearance three weeks ago,

MRS. MARY LYNCH
DIES. AT 1O2 YEARS
RESIDENT OF MEDINA
COUNTY GA YEARS
I'll But a Few Weeks and Retained
Her Mental Faculties
Till the End

Mrs. Mary Lynch, oldest person in
Medina county and probably one of a
very few of similar age in the whole
country, died last Saturday afternoon,
at A o'clock, at the home of her daugh-
ter, Mrs. Benjamin Carlton, about six
miles south of Medina, in Guilford
township, at the extreme age of 102
years, 7 months and 21 days. Death
was due to hardening of the arteries,
the result of her advanced age.
The deceased was the widow of the
late Patrick Lynch, who died Sept. 18,
1902. She was a native Of Ireland,
where she was born June 10, 1915. Per
haps better idea of how long this
aged woman had been on earth may be
had by recalling that the United States
was under only its fourth presidential
administration at the time of her
birth, and that the capitol at Wash
ington had been burned by the British
but one year previous. With her par
ents she came to America when fifteen
years of age, and for sixty-four years
had resided in Guilford township, Me-
dina county. She became the mother
of four children, three daughters and
one son, all of whom preceded her in
death except one daughter, Mrs. Carl
ton, with whom her last years were
spent. She had always been an active
woman and enjoyed very good health
until a few weeks before her death,
when she was finally borne down by
weight of years, gradually failing, but
with clear mentality, until the end.
Funeral services we're held Tuesday
morning from the Carlton home, con-
Quoted by Rev. Ryan of st. Xavier's
Catholic church, Medina, and the body

Not only did old Medina county
mount over the top in the Fourth Lib

hurdled over to the extent of nearly
two hundred thousand dollars-$193,-
750, to be exact, 8,241 persons being
buyers of their nations notes.
4 Moreover, of the nineteen units into
which the county was divided, only
one, Guilford township (including Sc
vile village), failed in reaching its
quota. Of its quota Of $114,00O, only
$82, 900 had been subscribed when the

Jp toi the la,& week hut two 0l
three townships had reached their
quota, and indeed half dozen or
more had not done so until the last
day or two, when they began filing in
with their gladstone reports, two OF
three barely getting in before "time''
was called. Many workers were forced
to a double and in some cases triple
canvass of their territory for doub-
ling of subscriptions, in which they
were successful, and it should be stat
ed that the greater part of those SC
solicited bought more bonds cheerfully
in the proud desire of having theil
