RETSEY ROSS GIRLS

One of the effective, efficient, and
altogether worth while organizations
that have come into existence in Wau
seon during the war is the organiza
ton of young ladies who have adopt
ed the suggestive name, "The Betsey
Ross Girls" Under the direction of
Mrs. M. E. Read and Mrs. w. c. Fink
these girls have accomplished a work
for their country that would make
the original patriotic Betsey Ross,
who fashioned with her needle, the
first stars and stripes, proud Of her
namesakes.
The organization was effected last
June when a group of Camp Fire
Girls known as the Wacafgi, merged
themselves into this patriotic organi-
zation for the purpose of helping the
nation to win the war for Democracy.
Since that time they have earned
and given to the Red Cross chapter
$50; have made and passed in to the
Red Cross "a sweaters, % pairs of
socks, and % pairs of wristlets. There
are "a members and they are now
working on necessary articles fol-
French and Belgian babies who are
destitute. Inasmuch as the organiza-
ton is without funds, donations OF
materials suitable for baby garments
would be very acceptable. On account
of this shortage of funds, the girls are
being asked for a regular contribu
ton Of 25c per month, but this will be
only temporary arrangement in or
der to secure funds for needed ma
terials. The Betsey Ross Girls havt
certainly proven their patriotism ant
worthiness to receive donations o.
money or materials for their work.

NOT SUBJECT TO REFERENDUM
Action of Ohio Legislature on Ma
tionaI Prohibition Is Final

Action of Ohio Legislature on Ma
tionaI Prohibition Is Final
Columbus, Ohio.-The impression is
given out by the liquor press of Ohio
that if the state legislature ratifes
the National Prohibition amendment,
its action will be made the subject of
statewide referendum and that
should the legislature ratify the
amendment and a statewide vote
should oppose Prohibition, the action
Of the legislature would be void. This
claim is made on the theory that any
action of the Ohio legislature may be
made the subject of the referendum.
It is apparent this position is wrong.
The Constitution Of Ohio cannot in
fringe on the Constitution of the
United States, and the Federal Con-
stitution expressly says that amend
ments to this Constitution
shall be valid to all intents and pur-
poses as part of this Constitution
when ratified by the legislatures of
three-fourths of the several states."
Hon. W. B. Wheeler. General Coun-
sci for the Anti-Saloon League of
America, quoted the above from the
Constitution Of the United States, and
asserts that any action taken through
a referendum after the legislature has
ratified the amendment would be void

SNAKES IN IRELAND

U. S. Marine Training Camp.-That
st. Patrick never saw any snakes in
Ireland, let alone drive them out, is
the claim of Patrick Murphy, native
of Ireland and sergeant in the Ma
rine Corps here.
Snakes, declares Murphy, were un-
known to the sons of Erin until one
DR.. Guithers, in 1773, imported two
small reptiles, then considered curl
osity.
'The first man to really see snakes
in Ireland" says Sergeant Murphy,
twas friend Of DIR Guithers. This
occurred one night when the man, an
habitual drinker, awakened out of a
drunken sleep and saw the doctors
pets crawling over the floor of his
home. DIR. Guithers, after that,
claimed snakes to be positive cure
for drunkenness, but St. Patrick p
why, he never saw one."

HE'S GOT TO HAVE
CARPET SLIPPERS

"To get 100 per cent fighting eff
cheney out of John Parsons you've got
to give him his old carpet slippers af-
ter hard days work IN the trenches.
A good cigar and piece of apple
pie to round it out and you've got
satisfied man that will do anything
you tell him. I've lived with him for
ten years and know"
This note, addressed to Marine
Corps headquarters by Mrs. John
Parsons, also contained an inquiry as
to whether there was any embargo
on carpet slippers, Betsey Lees, and
apple pie going to fighting Marines
in France.
It's big question, and while the
Marine Corps maintains no time
study or welfare departments, it is
felt that if his old carpet slippers
will enhance John Parsons fighting
qualities, he'll just have to have
them, that's all.

RAISE YOUR OWN SUGAR BEETs

The Literary Digest, in its issue
of February 2, refers to an article in
the Des Moines (Iowa) Capital in
which Professor Holden, the noted ag-
ricultural expert, advises dwellers IN
country and village to plant sugar
beets in their gardens next summer.
Professor Holden gives it as his
opinion that the average family can
reduce it's annual sugar bill 80 per
cent if it raises even one 20-foot row
of sugar beets.
"The beauty about the whole thing
is that every home can be it's own
refinery. One fair-sized sugar beet
when soaked in water 20 minutes and
boiled on the kitchen stove, will make
cup of thick sirup which can be used
in cooking, for seasoning and sweet
ening,"

FIRE DESTROYS FARM HOUSE

The house on the H. A. Lee farm,
six miles north and one mile east If
Wauseon, was destroyed by fire last
Tuesday evening. The house was oc-
cupied by C. B. Hine and family, who
expected soon to move from the farm
to the S. A. Boynton farm, east of
Ottokee. Most of Mr.. Hines house
hold goods were destroyed by fire,
only an organ, few chairs and the
family supply of pork being saved
There had been sale on the farm
Tuesday, and the fire is thought to
have originated from the kitchen
stove

Drunkenness anc Insanity.

London. - Especial. )-Insanity de-
creases as drunkenness decreases.
This is true in the United States and
it is also true in other countries. Off
cial figures show that England is be-
coming more sane as she becomes
more sober. In 1916 convictions for
drunkenness were the lowest recorded
for nearly SO years. Last year these
convictions totaled 84,191 against
135, 1928 in 1915.
The number of insane persons in
England and Wales last year was also
the lowest for SO years, showing a de-
crease of 3,159 compared with the
number in 1915.
