STILL ZERO WEATHER
Winters Strangle Hold Fails
To Slip, and Result is All
in Its Favor.

With way below zero weather
facing us almost every day since
the first of the year, present
weather conditions do not point
to any relief in sight-even the
old timers are mum, declining to
be brought into conversation
when such thing is mentioned
IF this continued cold weather
keeps up there is grave danger
for the water system. Several
breaks are reported, but there
can not be any shutting down OF
the water works plant to make
repairs, on account of the dan
ger of mains freezing. One bad
break in the mains is reported in
front of the Draeger building on
Railroad street, but at present
it dare not be repaired.
The below zero days since last
weeks issue size up somewhat
like this:

TO EXEMPT BALD HEADS
Shiny Domes Make Too Easy
Targets for German Sharp
shooters and Cannot Stand
the Cold.

The obvious target that a bald
head offers to Teuton sharp
shooters has been assigned by an
army officer as vital rea
son why men minus hair on their
heads should be exempted from
military service unless they can
be used in some branch that
does not call for exposure to the
enemy.
Captain c. E. Jenkins, in
charge of an ambulance company
at Camp Funston, gave this ad-
vice when speaking to members
of local exemption boards.
"Bald-headed men are not al
together welcome" Captain
Jenkins said. They present a
shining target for the enemy and
besides they cannot withstand
cold. They would make admir-
able decoys but thus far we have
not felt the need of using hair
less heads for that purpose.
Futher advice offered by the
captain was that men with in
dex fingers missing or with as
MANY as two toes missing should
not, be accepted He explained
that it has already cost the gov
eminent thousands of dollars to
return men to their homes who
are thus physically unfit.

IN BUILD NEW GARAGE
Strong & Manley Purchased
Site Corner of Wall and
Railroad Streets-Work To
Start In Spring.

The firm of Strong & Manlev
this week purchased the corner
site at the intersection of Wall
and Railroad streets-the spot
long occupied by the ruins of the
Old O'Connor building which
was DESTROYED by fire in the
spring of 1910.
On the east portion of the site
the new owners will Immediate
" construct a modern, fire
proof garage. John Ulrich has
the contract which calls for a
tuo-story-and- basement build
ing of reinforced concrete.
Material is being hauled to
ground now and construction
will beg, as soon as the snow
goes. Later on a new building
will be erected adjoining the gar
age on the west, occupying the
corner. This will house the
firms hardware business.
The burned over vacant lot in
the heart of the village has long
been an eye-sore to the commun-
ty and the news of a new build
ing on the site is very gratifying.

GERMAN SOLDIERS ON BRITISH
SECTOR HAD MEAGER RATIONS

With the British American Armies
at the Front, Dec. German SOL
diers ON the British sector of the
western front evidently were not as
well off in the matter of food as their
brothers who fought in the French
and American sectors. The corre..-
pondent of the Associated Press found
at Valenciennes, for example, that the
soldiers food consisted largely OF
black bread, pork fat and raw turnips.
In the St. Mihiel sector, on the 9th
err hand, the Germans had biscuits
made of white -four, compressed beef,
butter and cheese. A part of these
rations had come from Russia, hav-
ing been sent originally to that coun-
try for the Russian army by the Unit
ed States. In the French sector from

And the warmest of welcomes are
now awaiting them, and the greatest

they get home-the brave boys that

Americans have the perfect house all
in the pink of order for their home
coming. Everything possible that we
can do for their supreme comfort will
confront our noble sons. OF course
we will have to see now great changes
in government matters. Everywhere
the war has changed conditions.
England will likely make a radical
change, possibly new parliament.
France, more liberal government,
and in Italy changes both in church
and state will take place, but here in
these United States it is not thought
that there will be any great change
other than what is in force today and
SO when the boys come home we
here can render an account of our

MAKE 1T 100 PER CENT

Of course everyone is getting ready
to participate in the great Red Cross
Christmas Roll Call. This does not
mean merely those who are already
members, and who of course are ev-
pected to renew such membership,
but it is the purpose, the hope, to en-
roll every American citizen as a
member in this, the greatest organi-
cation in the world the sole interest
of which is that of humanity-the
relief of suffering. This Is not a
drive for funds, the only thing ex.
pected being the membership fee of
$1.00 which, together with the other
funds that are and will be available,
due to the excellent finacial arrange
ments for which the Red Cross is
noted, will be ample for all future
needs, barring of course some unus-
ually great call. There is no organ
ization membership in which appeals
more to the people generally than
that in the Red Cross, and this is true
in the case Of all citizens, no matter
what the nationality. What a beau
tifui tribute to the important work
and scope Of that great organization
if it could boast a 100 per cent mem.
bership of the population of the
country.
