COLLECTION OF NUT SHELLS
 AND FRUIT PITS

A ation-wide campaign is being made for the collection of certain fruit stones, fruit pits and nut shells to be used for making carbon to manufacture gas masks for our sol diers overseas. The following are the kinds needed: Peach stones or seeds, apricot, prune, plum, olive and cherry pits, Brazil, walnut, hickory and butter-nut shells and date seeds. These stones and shells may be mixed and no matter how old, if sound. No other kinds are wanted except those mentioned above. 200 peach stones Will produce carbon sufficient to pro tect one soldier from German gas. and seven pounds of nut shells will do the same. You are urged to bring all you can this week to the Red Cross work room at Scott's hall
 This is an emergency matter. It is a question of saving the lives and health of our men overseas from German poison gas and every patrio- tic citizen in the whole county should be glad to collect all they possibly can.

BICYCLE COLLlUES
WITH AUTOMOBILE

Gordon Carter. a l6-year-old
youth, was slightly injured about the
race and arms " ednesday evening
when his bicycle colhded with an an
'ohoDlle driven by Joseph Dahmen.
The injured boy was coasting down
W est Main street when his brakes
save way, the cycle making the last
Dlock at terrific speed. He turned
the blcycie toward the curb at the
latlron building corner and a col
lislon with the automobile, which
Was gong west on Main street,
seemed imminent. In an effort to
avert the collision Dahmen turned
ans auto sharply TO the left and went
over the curbing onto the sidewalk
the bicycle striking the front of the
machine glancing blow. The lad
was thrown from his bicycle to the
paving, but his injuries were not seri-
GUS. Eyewitnesses to the accident
claim that no blame attaches to the
driver of the automobile, who did
every thing in his power to avert the
collision, and commend him for his
cool judgment and his willingness to
take chances himself in an effort to
save the youth.
