WAR SAVINGS

4 good start has been made to over
come the poor record for March.
More workers are needed. More pa
triotic savers. More doing something
every day to win the war. Spend
what is necessary but avoid unneces-
sary expenditures. When in doubt buy
thrift or savings stamps. In this way
you spend your money but still have
lit. The stamp is good any time and
anywhere. Some day you will doubt
less be glad you bought these stamps.
War savers should be very busy
this week as there will be some in
activity along this line next week on
account Of the Third Liberty Loan
campaign.
Ilenty Of blue cards at the office Of
the chairman. Get them for your
selves and for your neighbors.
Our fair assistant at the .postoffico
has promised to lick all the stamps
you will buy. 1t is worth sixteen

FOUND ON
THE FIRING LINE
Continued from Page -

May 1.--In front of the defending pc.
sitions gray uniformed men lay in
great numbers today, representing the
awful price paid by the Germans in
their attack.
This morning the allied lines in
Flanders were to all intents the same
as when the Germans surged forward
yesterday.
AT one time yesterday the Germans
appeared actually to have had some
men on the lower slopes of both Mont
Rouge and the Scherpenberg after
they had succeeded in driving small
wedge into the French lines between
these two elevations Things looked
critical, but the French counter at
tackled determinedly and re-establish.
ed virtually all the old positions.

SELECT DID NOT co TO CAMP
He is Alleaed to Have Stolen a Cop.
per Gable and Sold II to Junk
Yard.

Centeryille, May Harry f. Ram.
sey one of the Appanoose county Sc
lective soldiers, and who was expect
ed to accompany the contingent leav-
ing here yesterday to Camp Dodge, is
not going, this time at least. Instead
he is covering berth in the county
Jail on rather serious charge.
Several days ago the New Oriental
Mining Co., at Brazil, suffered the loss
of large amount of their heavy cop
per cable, which supplies current to
the mining machines. The wire was
and six hundred dollars. Later it was
found at junk yard, cut into small
pieces, the insulation all torn away
and apparently had been placed in the
fire to give it the appearance of old
copper. The mine had only been using
it short time.
Ramsey was suspected as having
had hand in the theft, and was ar
rested late in the week and brought to
Jail A question arose as to whether
or not he should be released to go
with his contingent to camp. Judge
Anderson ruled that he should be kept
in Jail until hearing could be arrang-
ed, and if guilty he will be given SEN
tence, and if found not guilty he can
accompany the next contingent into
camp. A hearing will be arranged for
an early date. 1t has been reported
that he probably committed the theft
to avoid military service, but this is
only rumor.
