Women Called to Service.

Just as 1t is necessary to have an
army Of men in France to win this
war, so it is necessary to have an
army Of women at home. This army
of women Is to be nurses; to care for
their own families in sickness, their
neighbors, the sick in our hospitals
and our wounded soldiers who will be
sent back to us.
The government Is calling for $4,000
young women to take the nurses
training and fill the places of the many
who have gone overseas and the many
more who will 60 in the near future.
1t should be the ambition Of more than
that number of young women in our
country to enter such a high and no.
BILE calling.
10 better prepare the women Of our
county to care for our sick during the
absence of our doctors and nurses, the
hcd Cross Chapter intends giving a
course in First Aid, beginning the first
OF Scptcmbcr. The course will be Civ
en- by Dr.. w. ID. Ferguson and will
consist Of ten lessons Of two classes a
week.
The women Of the county arc in
vitcd and urged to take the course.
The class is limited to twenty mem
harS. Those wishing TO Join the
class will please give their names. as
soon as possible to one Of the follow
ing committee.

Small Blaze in Advertiser Shop.

Saturday afternoon an explosion of
gasoline in the vicinity Of the linotype
in the composing room of The Adyer-
tiser caused small blaze which
was extinguished with small loss by
prompt work Of the fire department
and friends. The explosion occurred
when the linotype operator, Mr.. Rolf,
attempted to light the gasoline burn
cr Of the machine after 1t had gone out
for some reason or another. The
match ignited the accumulated gas
in the atmosphere and caused loud
explosion which surprised Mr.. Roff,
to say the least, and caused sudden
discomfltures in the editorial sane
tum.. For few moments 1t appeared
that The Advertiser would be issued
under difficulties this week, but ex-
cept for upsetting the mental equi!i-
brium of "staff", the wheels OF pro-
gress were not stayed to any appre-
cable extent.

RECEIVES APPOINTMENT.

Rev. c. S. Sparkes received a noti-

which appointed him as one of the
speakers for the Public Safety Com
missions Speakers Bureau. This
means that Mr.. Sparkes has been
chosen to represent this Commission
wherever in the state they may chose
to send him. 1t is purely an honorary
appointment as no salary is attached
and the speaker is expected to pay his
own expenses. 1t is indeed an honor,
however, both to Mr.. Sparkes and to
Sank Centre that he has heen chosen
and to the minds of those who know
his worth, it is an honor to the Safety
Commission that Mr.. Sparkes accepts.

ANOTHER CITIZEN CALLED.

After an illness of more than three
years duration, Henry Kurell of this
city died on Thursday, February Fl,
at the age of so years. Death was
due to cancer of the stomach. Burial
took place on Saturday afternoon at
half past two from the Methodist
church, the Rev. Francis Boone, Of
ficiating. Interment was at Green
wood cemetery.
Henry Kurell, the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Fred Kurell, long familiar citi-
zens in the city, was born near Sank
Centre and has spent his entire life
in this community. His passing is one
that is sincerely regretted, aside from
the intense suffering which death
spares, for although he was not a
prominent man either in business
way or socially his manifest Christian
influence was one which benefited all
those whose fortune it was to come in
contact with him. The deceased is
survived by his wife, his mother and
several grown children.

treasurer and 7rinket''
Day In Sank Centre,
Saturday, March 9th

Almost everybody has heard of the
Treasurer and Trinket Days" which
are feature in towns and cities all
over the country. The idea of observ-
ing such a day, was conceived here
recently. A committee composed of
Mrs. j. c. Cardinal, chairman, Mrs.
F. W. Sprague and Mrs. L. J. Irish
was appointed and made arrange
ments. Therefore, the day set is Sat-
urday, March 9. L. A. Walker has
kindly offered his store as a place
where the valuablea are to be taken.
Anyone who has odd bits of old
jewelry or old silver, anything that
will melt up into money" is requested
and urged to bring them to this
store any time Saturday. The hours
begin early in the morning and are
not over until the. store closes that
night. The material is all to be test
ed for its worth by Mr.. Walker and
then sent away to be melted up The
value of the goods will be paid in
check to the Sank Centre branch Of
the local Red Cross.
The committee has also made ar
fangements that the jewelry may be
sold to anyone desiring it, and the
money derived from the sale will be
turned over to the Red Cross. Rare
old bits may be brought in which
others will be unable to resist. If
they are willing to pay the price asked
the Red Cross gains thereby.
The school children are to have
their share in the event. Their offer
ings are to be brought to the school
house on the day before and then
will be presented to the fund" If
the boys and girls, go after this
movement as they have everything
else patriotic, the grown-ups will have
to get up before daylight to make a
better record.

triotism, safeguarding of moral and
spiritual forces, giving assistance to
Red Cross wherever possible. To
stand ready to serve the government
in any further new activity for which
it shall receive instructions from that
government from time to time.
All women's organizations are asked
to cooperate with the National Coun-
Gil as a matter of patriotic duty-thus
ensuring that the women of the Unit
ed States shall present united eff
ficient body of service to our common
country.
This is a tinle to forget all small
nesses all prejudices, all personal
feelings of unwillingness to work with
this or that woman, and to remember
only that we are women of America.

BANKS RAISE RATE.

The banks of Sank Centre have
raised the interest rate to be paid on
Time Certificates of Deposit for one
year from four to five per cent. This
raise takes effect on certificates is
sued on or after March 1, 1918.
These sound financial institutions
feel that present conditions justify
them in making this advance.
This is progressive move on the
part of our banks and is in keeping
with their liberal treatment of the
people of the community.
