Auto Smashed by Train

Henry Kraft's Ford car was
badly damaged when it was struck
by a train at the street crossing at
the southwest corner of the park
last Friday morning. Mr.. Kraft
was coming to town alone in the
car and stopped at the crossing to
let train pass going west. AS
soon as the crossing was clear be
drove on and just as he reached
the track the train backed up,
struck his car about center and
showed it along the track for three
rails length or more, smashing
two wheels and injuring the body
of the car so badly a new one is
necessary. Mr.. Kraft remained in
the car and was not hurt except a
few bruises and scratches. 1t was
lucky indeed that the train was
moving quite slowly and a more
serious accident aVerted.

SPEEDING UP the LOAN
Special Train Here SweIIed Sub
scriptiOns $13,OOO.OO

Almost the entire population oi
of Laclede, many from surround
ing country and large delegations
from Brookfield and Linneus were
here to see the war exhibit train
from 800 to 500 Wednesday af,
ternoon. The train was made up
of commissary car, diner, sleeper,
two exhibition coaches and three
fiat cars. On the train were sew
eraI American, Canadian, English
and French soldiers incapacitated
while at the front, and sew eral OF
whom related their experiences in
some of the fiercest engagements OF
the great war.
There were also on the train two
Liberty Loan speakers as we'll as
E. M. Iomax, county chairman OF
the Liberty Loan organization,
The two government speakers
made effective appeals during
which subscriptions for more than
$13, 100000 were taken.
On the fiat cars were cannons,
trench mortars, machine guns,
torpedos, and other death dealing
instruments, while the inside ex-
hibits were smaller trophies and
war relics from the battle fields.
The cars were thrown open and
all who cared to passed through
and got a glimpe of the exhibit.
The object of the train is to
speed up the bond sale which the
speakers declared to be dragging
at this time, and warned the people
of the danger to winning the war
if the fighters at the front are not
supplied with provisions, guns and
ammunition-the man power doing
its part, but funds must be pro-
Vided.
