fever germs of springtime are
lurking everywhere. So get
into your over-alls and get your
hoe and spade and come into the
backyard, a garden must be
made. Get your straw hat from
the attic, bring the seed that
Jouett sent, and plant a big war
garden, twill help to pay the
rent. Tis sweet to smell the
fragrance Of the upturned earthly
loan; 'tis fun to chase your
neighbor's hens and drive them
straightway home; | love to see
the turnips turn, and the rad
ishes blush red when potato eyes
peep at them before they're out
of bed; / love to see the succo-
tash suck nectar from the
ground, and watch the lettuce let
the beetS beat the eggplant all
around. In times like these we
ought to strive to raise all that
we can, and we should can all
that we raise to help the other
man. And by reading up on

than as stay at-home, and made
his decision accordingly.

Departed

The sad news of the death of
Leona Randolph, the 12-year-
old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Ora Randolph, at Dodge City,
on April 30th, was received with
deep regret by Meade people.
Leona had been in apparently
good health until about a week
before her death when she suf-
fered an attack of appendicitis.
She was taken to the hospital at
Dodge City Sunday, but it was
soon evident that it was not
within the power of human effort
to save her, and at 6 o'clock or
the morning Of the 30th, she
passed away.
She was born at Meade,
March 10, 1906, and died April
so, 1918. Funeral services were
held at the NJ. E. church WednGs-
day, May l. conducted by Rev.
George A. Kraft. Interment
was made in Graceland ceme-
terry.
The pallbearers were Little
Misses Velma Hartman, Pearl
Fletcher, Wilma Woodard, Pearl
Runkle, Elsie Roberts, and
Lucille Love.
Members of her Sunday school
class acted as honorary pail
bearers, and were: Little Misses
lola Cook, Annabelle Griggs,
Alice Griggs, Mildred Gibbons,
Miriam Brown, Kathleen Love,
Nora Jackson, and Ida Holde-
man.
Pupils of the Lake View school
which she attended were present
in a body to pay their last trib-
ute of respect and to scatter
flowers.
Leona had a pleasant, pleas
ing disposition, and was liked
by all who knew her. She leaves
to mourn her early death, her
parents, one brother, and one
sister. Her grandparents, Mr..
and Mrs. R. T. Worman, and a
large number of counsins, aunts,
and uncles.

an honor flag, which tells the
people of Meade that they have

to the loan.

Third Loan was $4,000, and al

ranks in wanting autocracy put
off the face of the earth.
Both the Meade banks have
had an active part in putting
Meade "over the top" and the
efforts of the women, who have
worked early and late are also
worthy of praise.

DUMMHEIT

You say "dummheit" by making harsh
noise down in your throat.
It sounds like human being trying to make
noise like very frightful beast that has made
up his mind to scare the daylight out of every
thing on earth.
Still dummheit is not really threat to raise
hsll-but it is raising hell.
Dummheit sank the Lusitania.
Dummheit bombs London babies.
Dummheit shoots the long range gun that
destroys churches in Paris on holy days.
Dummheit assassinated Belgium; obliterated
Montenegro; wrecked Serbia cruciied Rumania;
seduced silly Russia; made Turkey even worse
than Turkey normally is and tried to induce Mex
leo and Japan to commit suicide.
Dummheit is German for stupidity, wooden
medicines and from it kultur was born.
l. Dummheit is the dumbest sort of plain block
headedness that ever inflicted itself upon this
world-and the deuce of it is, the only way to
get it out of the Teutonc head is to shoot it OUT
Thanks to Johnny Bull Les Poilus, the YAM

By assigning two or three a day we

have later discussions, and when a
conclusion is finally reached the Opin-
