That the large and valuable estate
of L. r. Willard. former president o.
the Marshall Oil Company, will be
fought for in court was indicated by
documents fled late Friday for the
trustees. and executors, C. c. 81. Ciair,
G. II. Ruth, and w. II. kalbach, in
resistance to the contest to have the
will set aside, filed by the heirs, and
the election of Mrs. Jennie A. Willard.
the widow. to accept her distributive
share in lieu OF her share under the
WILL All the petitions. applications and
elections filed for the heirs and Mrs.
Willard are met by demurrer, answers
and resistances.
The five daughters Joined in a petit
ton to have the will set aside, and to
have the estate distributed as tho there
had been no will. Mrs. Willard petit
toned the court for her dstributive
share Of one-third Of the estate. elect
ing to take that share rather than TO
accept the provisions Of the will which
provided her a maximum income OF
5000 year for her support. She also
petitioned to be awarded outright the
exempt property, which is the home
on West Main street Mrs. Willard
also petitioned for an increase OF al
lowance to 5000 for the first year
since her husbands death.
Executors Demur to Petition.
The proposed proceedings for Mrs.
Willard and her daughters are at
tackled by the trustees who were placed
in charge Of the entire estate to keep
it intact. by a demurrer which raises
legal questions involved In this de-
murrer 1t is alleged that the election
of the widow does not nullify the will
nor its trust provisions. or that an
agreement betweel>ehe widow and the
children can not terminate the trust
or nullify the provisions Of the will
nor provisions made for grandchildren
yet unborn" Whether Mrs. Willard
accepts the provisions Of the will or
takes her distributive share under the
statute, does not void the will or rem
der it imperative, the demurrer furth-
er sets out.
Trustees File Answers.
In the answers and resistances Of
the executors to the election and petit
tlCn OF MIS- " iaIO 10 ssihe HeE o!S-
tributive share, it is set out that such
election is contrary to the terms Of the
viii. and that the application was made
too late Averment is made that there
is no obligation Of the estate or APP
plicant to support daughters OF legal
age and married daughters with hus-
bands" The statement Is made that
$500 a year allowance is adequate
for a widow. with no legal dependents.
1t is pointed out in the resistance to
the applicants petition for exempt
property that Mrs. Willard has. by her
acceptance, elected to accept the pro-
visions OF the will. and that she is now
stopped from claiming her stetuatory
rights and in any manner disturbing
the provisions Of the will.

Another war emergency order comes
to the T.-R today from the war indus
trie. board at Washington 1t reads
as follows:
! effective until further notice special
editions will not be prohibited, but no
special allowance will be made for
reading matter contained therein.i
1.-THE space devoted to rea ding matter
must be reported, and the average for
the month must show the required re-
dlction as compared to the average
consumption for the first six months OF

Under a previous rule publishers OF

a further reduction OF reading matter
equal to the amount published in an
extra war news edition. The necessity
Of reducing the amount of white paper

Secret Of Longevity Of
Indian Is That He Lives H.,
In Open, Eats Plain Food

Chief Manitoweg white Wings), an
Indian evangelist of the Siwash tribe,
who has been preaching in churches in
Harlem and in New Jersey, told his
auditors Of the good health and longev-
ity of the Indian.

his native state on the reservation at
tains an age that few members of the
white race would believe possible. !

coming extinct, but this is because SO

eyesight, and can run ten miles before
breakfast without an effort. was
preaching recently at church in New
ark, N. j., and after the service man
of thirty-four came to me and asked
why it was that SO many Indians had
thick. hair and were not afflicted with
badness. He remarked that he had
never seen baldheaded Indian. This
man himself was as bald as billiard
ball.
"I will tell you, my FRIEND I told
him, 1T is the truth, although you will
probably not believe me. When the In
dian goes to bed he at once goes to
sleep; it is different with the white
man, who takes his troubles to bed
with him, and always has something
on his mind"

An Important Difference.

The gasoline situation in this coun.
try is not to be compared with that in
Europe. England and France are al
most entirely dependent upon imports
of petroleum products and the ability
to import is limited by lack of ships.
1t is for this reason that the use Of
motorcars for private use has had to
be suspended except for the most ur-
gent requirements. America, on the
contrary, Is the worlds largest oil
producing country and is unable to ex-
port more than one-quarter of Its gaso-
line production. To the extent that
gasoline, kerosene and fuel oil are used
for power purposes the supply Of coal
Is conserved.

Magnetic Storms Interfere

One of the many explanations that

fact that migrating birds are able to
