BAGLEY BOOTLEGGER
AGAIN AT OLD TRICKS

Fred Ready, charged with the il
legal transportation of liquor into
Iowa, was taken to Dubuque from
McGregor late Wednesday night by
A. P. Houston, deputy United States
Marshal, and locked up in the county
jail. Thursday morning he was ar
raigned before Commissioner Herbert
F. McCabe, waived preliminary hear
ing and was bound over to the federal
grand jury under a $500 bond. His
case will come up at the December
term of federal court in Dubuque, and
Ready will probably languish in Jail
until that time, as he is unable to fur
nish bond. According to the mar
shal's Office, Ready has been selling
liquor to residents of river towns
north of Dubuque. He owns launch
and, after obtaining supply of wet
goods at Prairie du Chen, it is al
legged that he would cross the river
and do fiourishing business. Ready
was arrested at McGregor by Deputy
Marshal Houston shortly after he had
been picked up by the sheriff there on
g state charge.
This is the same party who was
fined once and served a Jail sentence
at Lancaster during the past year for
bootlegging near Bagley.-Blooming

We had big barn raising at Up

and we had a bounteous feed. AS
there wasn't enough room in the
house we all took our seats around the

and big plenty with trimming of
bananas, oranges and ice cream and
about p. m. Grace and her two young
helpers came out with big cream
can Of lemonade also two boxes of
cigars and everybody thought they
had been treated to the limit and all
pitched in and did it up fine The
work was done by Fred Irwin. Then
Wednesday Fred blew over to likes
and by supper time his barn was up,
rafters, stock boards and some sheet

Then by the time the trimmings were
on supper was ready, then hurrah for
home to get ready for Jacks big barn

Jacques stood in the shadow of a
poplar by the long white road that
wound away from the village far ov-
er the hills to the north. From be-
hind those hills the little French boy
could hear the mutter of distant fir
ing.
1t was a year ago that Jacques had
waved his chubby hand at the broad
back of Papa swinging along the road
TO the North country. At the top of
the hill Papa had stopped to fling
back the cheeriest sort of au'voir so
that little Jacques would know very
we'll that soon Papa would soon be
coming home again.
Summer with it's panorama of sing
ing men marching north and broken
men dragging YEARLY southwark ;
Winter with snow where the white
dust lay; and now Spring again and
still Papa has not come.
To be sure, there was the letter in
the long envelope from Paris that
made Mama cry, but jacques knew in
his heart that Mama was mistaken
She had told him on that gray day
when the laundering beyond the hill
was very loud that he need not go
out to his poplar any more. But what
was a woman to know of such things
Had not Papa promised? And then
there was the boche helmet that JAG
ques was to have for his very own.
So the boy kept hopeful eyes upon
the blue hills and went regularly tC
mis- post by the poplar despite Mama's
tears and the statement of the kindly
sgray-haired official that soon jacques
must leave his home to go to live
with other little boys in a great in
stitutiOn.
Try as he would to be brave, how
ever, Jacques was troubled this af-
1ernoon. He would stand stiffly at
1ently by. AS they gravely acknow-
lodged the salute, some of the blue
clad men would turn to look back at
the little figure under the poplar. He
seemed to be shaken by sorrow that
such a child. should never know.
No, the world was not kind to
French boys whose fathers had gone
away to where the big guns were
quarreling. To be sure, the old man
had said that Mama was to have ten
cents a day from the government, but
that was so little to feed and clOthe
a family. And with Papa so long
away and Mama so sad and with very
little to eat and nothing at all to play
with, we can hardly blame little JAG
ques if his head dropped bit as he
trudged away from the poplar. For
the first time the awful thought that
all these older people might be right
and that Papa would never come again
singing down the hill, was having its
way with him.
On all the pOplar-lined roads OF
France today there are children look
ing to the north for fathers who will
never return We can do but little
10 make their vigils easier. They
have been made fatherless that the
world they are to live in may be free
but this they cannot understand. De-
spite the gentle sunlight of northern
France, these are black days for its
youth.

FatherLess Children of France.

But though we can never give JAG
ques' father back to the boy, there is
something we can do right here and
now in America where there is no
threat from the northern hills.
On July 4th we celebrate the birth
day of the nation that we love today
with a new passion And ten days
later in France Jacques and his little
friends will wave tri-colors and do
their bit to be happy because that is
the day the Bastille fell. On other
FOUrths you and the children have
shown that you are true Americans
by shooting off fire-crackers and say
ing "Ah" as the rockets spilled their
sparkle among the trees, which was
only right and proper. But this year
they are sending up rockets over No
Mans Land in Jacques country and
there is little feasting there even on
Bastille day.
So what you ando f0r Jacques is
this. Tell the children that instead
Of fire-crackers and rockets you are
going to give a child in France a
chance for life, that your children
have so abundantly. Tell them that
you are going to keep Jacques out of
that grim institution and let him stay
at home where he can run out and
talk to his poplar every now and then
and salute the soldiers that were Pa
pas friends.
1t is just another chance for you
and the children to show that you be-
lieve in your America that was born
in independence Hall. You can add
in the name of your children, to the
ten cents a day that the French gov
eminent gives to the Fatherless Chill
dren of France, an equal sum.
There is an American society called
"The Fatherless Children of France
that has made arrangements to take
your money and get it into the homes
where it is most needed. For a sum
as low as $3.50 year, you can keep
child safely at home under mothers
care. AS soon as you send the money
to the Society you will be given the
name of the child that you are car
ing for and some fine day you will re-
ceive a letter from that child telling
what your generosity has meant. That
letter will be more to you and the
ones you love than whole wagon loads
Of fire-crackers.
The "Fatherless Children of France
have National Headquarters in New
York City. A branch Of this society
is located in Lancaster and your sub
scriptiOn is earnestly solicited. You
may make your subscription for one
year or term Of years. The $3.50
need not all be paid at one time if not
convenient. You may arrange to make
semi-annual, quarterly or even month
ly payments. Call upon or write any
member Of the Lancaster committee
for particulars, or send $36.50 to Mr.

name of French child will be sent
you at once.
