Otto Schultz of Bristol, one of the
national army men called to the colors
last week, wanted some government
insurance. Like a sensible fellow, he
went to headquarters for information
as to how to get it. Director Kelsey
of the Home Service Section of the
Red Cross, explained the procedure
started to fill out his application, but
when the matter of beneficiaries came
up, there was trouble. Schultz mother
and father and every relative he had
in the world are in Germany, under
the thumb of the Kaiser. Naturally
Uncle Sam could not be expected to
send money to Germany, in case the
Unforeseen happened and the insur-
ance was needed.
Schultz was finally advised to have
the policy made to his ESTATE" and
all concerned trust that he will come
safely through the conflict.

SCHUMANN.HEINK SONG
PLEASES DIX SOLDIERS
Men Appreciate Entertain.
ment Given by 'Mother
of the Army

Madame Schumanr -Heink hay have
sung TO more critical and artistic audi.
ences but IT Is doubtful II she ever
found one more enthusiastic and ap-
preciative than the khaki-clad crowd or
first -nighters which thronged the concert
at the Y. NJ. c. A. open.air theater at
Camp Dix last evening, With rapt at
tention they listened to classical ariss,
were smilingly and sympathetically ap-
preciative of camp and folk songs, ana
deeply moved by THE Star Spangled
Banner" and THE Battle Hymn OF the
Republic" rendered in her own inimit-
able way.
Madame Schumann.Heinl< was delight
fully informal and the charm of her
personality was felt by all the soldiers
and their guests. When she said that
of all her honors and titles she valued
most the latest one--"Mother of the
Army"-enthusiasm rose to a white heat,
the singer was cheered again and again,
hats were tossed In the air and men
whistled and clapped their approval
Although Madame SchumannHeink
lent the dignity of the artist TO the oc-
caslon, local camp talent contributed
much to the concert, which was under
the direction OF STANLEY ttdWKlnS,
musical director of the camp. There
were selections by the 35Oth Field
Artillery Band and the band of the seth
Pioneer Regiment of Delaware. A
quartet from the 3osth Field Artillery
was greeted with much applause and
thu regimental mass singing of camp
songs gave every man personal in
terest in the concert and a share in it's
success. The competitive sing of the
350th Field Artillery and the 59th
Pioneer Regiment brought forth much
cheering and laughter No one yet
knows who won, for they both appeared
TO go over the top"
The open-air theater is the latest in.

sent out on delinquent accounts;
letters are being written by in
dividual merchants for the pur-
pose of collecting old accounts;
balances are being turned over
to attorneys by each merchant
at an expense to each equalling
not less than that for which all

The object of the merchants
in the establishment of this
agency is to reduce to a minimum
the cost of doing business, with
a corresponding reduction In the
price Of merchandise sold at re-
tail.
This agency will be of no less
service to the public than to the
merchants. Many things come
up in the daily life Of the aver
age person that must be placed
before or secured from all Of the
merchants, and it is the duty of
this agency to handle such mat
