HIS LABOR BUREAU JOB
GOES WHEN WAR CALLS.

A lot of folks think HERBERT
Cowan's Job as special agent OF the
government employment bureau
permanent one-but not for Herb.
Mr.. Cowan who has been rejected
twice for regular army service De-
cause Of physical requirements
has applied for special service ana
expects to get in soon. When the
government appointed him as en-
ployment agent he went to Kansas
CITY and refused the place. But ne
was told that IL he did another man
would be sent here and he was urged
because of his good service to keep
the position during the harvest rusn
until his call to service comes, which
is likely to be next month. He Is
doing good work for laborers ana
farmers and will do just as good
work in the army when he Is IN
Quoted into the service. Whetner
the office will be maintained wnen
he leaves is uncertain-but just now
it is busy place.

Two Hard Roads

petition but nothing has yet been
done. A number have wanted
concrete or brick road on the Golden
Belt but it was finally given up
A petition is being circulated for
a gravel road from Abilene to En-
terprise.
This is the start on hard surfaced
roads in this county and like paving
II will spread rapidly. The commits
sioners have shown a first class good
roads spirit and one that will gen
orally be approved.
Work ON the roads may either be
done by the commissioners or may
be let by contract. When the "orh
will be done is not yet decided.
The Old Trails road now runs from
Herinton south to Marion but a
meeting June 27 will decide whether
or not to change it through Dickin-
son over the approved route. The
gravel road may be easier to build
at this time owing to the difficulty OF
securing cement, rock and brick and
the roadbed has already been grad
ed at cost of nearly $4,000. The
matter will be decided at a later
meeting. The heavy travel over the
Golden Belt and it's bad condition
make the residents along that road
anxious to get the Improvement as
soon as possible.
The city will be asked to grave
from the city limits to the pavement
now and always is about as bac
condition as road can be and no
cause a riot.

Elmo Bank Is
Looted Of $4,000

The yeggs are supposed to have
come in motor car as no train
passes that could have been utilized
Likewise the quiet indicates that the
men were experts. Several banks
have been robbed in Marion county
recently and their robbers are yet at
large.
It is possible that the Liberty
Bonds may be traced sometime as
their numbers are in possession OF
the bank.
Sheriff Sherman was called this
morning and went to Elmo and the
representatives of the burgular IN
surance company in which the bank
was insured we're also there.
No clue has yet been found. A
motor car was heard to come into
town from the east about 2 O'CLOCK
but no one saw it clearly enough to
describe it.

Home News for the Soldiers

Many parents of soldiers in training camps ana
overseas have asked regarding the sending OF the
Reflector to their and especially regarding getting
it to them in France. We are able to announce that
we can deliver the Reflector to the boys over there
with the same regularity as here-thougn Oh course
subject to some delay in transit. We advise sending
the Weekly Reflector which contains the news OF the
county and CITY fully and will be a weekly letter from
home that will be appreciated. For the foreign mail
the papers are especially wrapped and few are lost
While an increase of postage goes into effect in July
on papers sent by publishers no increase will be added
to the papers to the soldiers. For $3.50 year we
will send the Weekly Reflector to soldier boys any
S where.
