City officials were forced Sat
urday to abandon their plans to

Nearly 100 persons living with

protest against the establishment
of a quarantine station for vice

City Health Officer DR.. e. A.

county commissioners Saturday
and asked them for permission to
establish a temporary quarantine
station in vacant rooms on the
fifth floor of the court house.
The commissioners refused to lis

After DIR. Layton had. told the
county commissioners of the gov

War Garden at Bears.

Ben Bears corner window has
been attracting much attention the
past week. Since the garden has
been started here the Civic Club has
been very active in getting all avail
able garden spots utilized. The
window was planned by Mrs. Curtin
of the Civic Club and Chris Qualley
of the Ben Bear Co. demonstrated
his ability in building the idea. A
fine lot was plated, with walks,
residence, etc. A nice lawn was
laid with sod and about the resi-
dence, which stands in the center
of the lot, fine garden was planted.
1t is not fake garden either, as
a lot of good black loan was util-
lied and radishes, onions, cabbages,
po.atoe1, and half dozen other
vegetables were planted, and they
are thriving too. 1t is a fine repre-
sentation Of a thrifty garden, and
shows what can be done hy every
body in the community with just a
little effort.

Death of MSS Gladys Kendrlck.

Miss Gladys Kendrick, neice o.
#. S. Kendrick, of this city passed
away April II at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. John Hall in Milwaukee.
She had been i'll for about eight
weeks with inhamatory rheuma-
Lism. She apparently recovered
from this, but it left her heart weak
and she suffered a relapse, and was
sick just week. She made brave
fight for life and everything that
loving hands could do was done to
save her. The deceased was born
at Bellows Falls, Vermont, July 2S,
1899, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Kendrick. She and her sis
ter were left orphans when small
children. Gladys went to Oklahoma
City when nine years of age, living
there four years with her uncle,
Charles Kendrick, then came to De-
corah and made her home with Mr..
and Mrs. f. S. Kendrick. She left
DEBORAH April s, 1917, for Milwau-
kee, passing away at 1872 Farwell
ave., at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Hall. the former being at the head
of the company where Gladys was
employed. The funeral services
were held in Milwaukee April 15.
and interment was in Forest Home
cemetery.
Gladys had an exceptionally bright
future before her; she had a sweet.
happy disposition, and brot sunshine
wherever she went. She was very
bright student and most earnest
worker at anything she undertook to
do; she had in the short time she
had been with this company, worked
herself up to where she was getting
a very good salary and was we'll
liked by all. She made friends east
ly and kept them always, and is sad
that she was taken just at this time
when everything looked so bright
for her. While in DEBORAH she had
Joined the Young Peoples's Bible
Class of the Congregational Sunday
school and was faithful to 1t while
here and was well liked by all in
the class.
Mrs. F.. s. Kendrick and Esther
were In attendance at the funeral.
The sympathy of Gladys friends in
DEBORAH go out to her relatives here
and her sister in Milwaukee.

True TO German History

But, considering the background OF German
history the story OF Nuremberg. with its iron
maiden and spiked collars, and knowing the ter
rible example set by the men of Bertha Krupp's
race during the present war, 1t is easy to believe
that no means, no matter how terrible, neg
lected by this secret tribunal SO long they
achieve the desired result.
While there have been many great and noble
women rulers. who, like Queen Elizabeth and
Queen Victoria, have proven that woman well
man. is capable of welding great power with
out abusing it. and for the advancement Of the
human race 1t is, nevertheless, a fact. proven by
history. that when this mitless power is placed
in the hands of a woman who has any tendency
10 be cruel by nature she can be thousand times
cruel than any man.
Many of the terrible pages OF ancient and
medieval history recount the horrors that re-
suited from the cruelty of women like Joanna OF
Naples, Bloody Mary" the Duchess of Ferrara
and others who welded just such powers as those
delegated by the Kaiser to Bertha Krupp
For many years past there has been a close
connection and community of interest between the
court at Berlin and the Krupp factories at Essen
The Kaiser and members of his family are
heavy private stockholders in the factory but
the connection is a closer one than mere finance
alone can make.
For years before the war many mysterious
stories were In circulation, both in Germany and In
the outside world, regarding the close community
of interests between the war lords and the Krupps.
One story. which every newspaper reader vii!
