FOR Sheriff

To the voters of Cook County, Min
nesota:
At the urgent request of many
leading citizens in different parts of
the county have finally decided 70
become a candidate for the office of
sheriff and, although I have not
heretofore sought any public office
l feel as if I am not stranger here,
having lived, within the county for
the past fifteen years and have been
a taxpayer the greater part Of the
time.
My name will not appear on the
official ballot for the reason that l
had not given the matter considera-
tion before the time for filing ex-
pired, but I assure you that will
be thankful for your vote and sup
port, and, if elected to this very i'm
portant office I will endeavor to do
my very best to render the county
all that is in me for a clean-cut ad-
mfnistration of the affairs of the
office without fear or favor of any
one.
Respectfully,

BETTER SHIP LOADING
HELPS OUR ALLIES

Economies of approximately 20 per
cent in shipping weight and so per
cent in shipping space have resulted
from improved methods of packing
merchandise for overseas practiced
by the Army Quartermaster Corps.
This is equivalent to about $500 tons
space per month.
For the shipment Of clothing and
equipment, including such items as
blankets, barrack bags, towels, shell
ter tent halves, bedding, and other
dry goods, in addition to wearing
apparel, baling has been substituted
for boxing and The weight of the
lumber has been saved. The bales
average 80 to Is by Is inches and
weigh 80 pounds. They are bound
with not less than four cold rolled
unannealed steel bands. Burlap is
used to cover the bales, and there
are two "ears" on either ends of the
bale for handling.
Women are stevedorers on the
docks i'm France. There is law they
shall not be required to carry pack
ages weighing more than 70 pounds.
packages shipped to the American
Expiditionary Forces are standard
lied so they shall not weigh more
than 20 pounds for handling by one
woman carrier or more than 14O
pounds by two women carriers. Men
handle the heavier packages and box
es that must be used instead Of
bales.
The Quartermaster Corps recon-
mends to manufacturers supplying
the army many similar economics in
packing and shipping which will ce-
suit in even more pronounced space
and. weight saving: Round cans. and
containers entail a waste in space of
% per cent Square containers are
urged. 1t is estimated that every
inch saved through bale compression
is worth 65 cents in ship space II.

Death in Camp.

James Lyon Herring died at Camp
Funston, Kans., after an illness of
influenza, which was prevalent there
for some time. Deceased was the son
of Mr. and Mrs. ]. w. Herring, of
Commerce, Mo-, formerly citizens of
this county near Union City. The
young man was born March 8, 1894.
At the age of sixteen his parents
moved to Missouri, and from that
State two sons were called to the
colors. James entered the navy July
6, 1918, and was assigned to the
aviation unit. He leaves a mother,
father, sister and brother. The lat
ter is stationed at Camp Funston, be-
ing advanced in service to corporal
for his loyalty and obedience.
A tribute to the boys was paid by
the minister conducting the funeral,
Rev. ]. Randall Farris, and those
who knew them to the effect that
nothing too good can be said of
these boys, who were true and loyal
in their home life and duly and af-
fectionately thoughtful of the loved
ones.
Sixteen years ago on the 9th of
September this home was darkened
by the death of baby sister, and
again on this same date, which was
the birthday of his grandmother,
Mrs. McAlister, death came and car
ried James away. He loved God and
had the most profound respect for
all the work of the church, but had
never publicly committed himself to
God. He had intended doing so when
he was prepared to live the life of
a Christian.
The remains were brought to I'm
ion City, accompanied by the parents,
and taken to the residence of Mr..
Chas. Herring and service held there
on Monday, Sept. 80, at o'clock
Interment took place at the Turner
Cemetery.

Wont you buy Liberty Bond
For the love of q khaki-lad,
Who has gone to fight for you and me
And given up ell he had?
And while he is facing that battle
hell
Determined to win the game,
That boy is giving his very best
And we must be doing the same.
Wont you buy Liberty Bond,
Lend dollars to help our men,
Wont you keep them fed as they
travel along
On the road to old Berlin? -
They are on the way and hitting hard
With victory soon in view,
The trust deep down in each lads
heart
That we will hit hard too.
Wont you buy Liberty Bond,
Wont you think of the new made
graves;
Where boys who fell in freedoms
cause
Now sleep the sleep of braves?
They bravely died at duty's post,
In glorious honor rest,
And for love of men who gave so
much
We all must give our best.
