GIVE OUT SUGAR
CARDS FOR AUGUST

EATON, O., Aug. 3-Preble county
is now operating under sugar card
system The system was placed in
operation Friday afternoon in Eaton,
when the first cards were distributed
Cards were in the hands of all mer-
chants throughout the county Satur-
day. The cards cover sugar distribu-
ton for the month of August. 1t was
expected the cards would be issued
by the county food administration but
1t was decided that for the present
Eaton merchants, at least, would dis
tribute the cards to their customers.
At other points in the county it will
be optional with the food administra-
ton representa- tive whether he dis
tributes the cards or the merchants
distribute them, under the present ar
rangement.
The food administration cautions
holders Of sugar cards to guard
against destruction or loss of cards, as
, In no case will duplicate cards be is
sued. This means that if a card is
lost or destroyed the holder cannot
get his sugar ration for the month, or
that portion OF it coming to him or
her. The allowance is two pounds per
person per month.
Attached to the sugar card is a
stub or coupon bearing the same num-
Der as the card, the cards and cou-
pons being numbered ccS.secutively.
When merchant fills in and issues
a card he makes the same notations
on the stub and sends 1t into the food
administration. When the card is ex-
hausted the merchant takes it up and
files it with the food administration
for comparison with the stub pre-
viously filed The food administra-
ton will keep card-index record,
which will make reference to any ca Sc
an easy matter. Stubs are to be sent
into the administration at least once
week. Regardless of what merchant
issues the card it will be good for
sugar purchases at any store. 1t
will be absolutely necessary for a per-
son to present a card for sugar pur-
chases, says the administration. The
administra ton believes that it's re-
cord system will provide an easy
means Of detecting violations AS a
penalty for violations, the allowance
OF the violator for the succeeding
month will be cut off.

Rumely Denies Enemy Own

jury Charge is Absurd.

NEW YORK, Aug. 8 The German
government sank" an aggregate OF
$1.431. 700 in it's attempt to influence
section Of American public opinion
through purchase or the New York
Evening Mail. Alfred l.. Becker. dep

nounced Friday night.
After the arraignment Friday of DR..
Edward A. Rumely, former publisher
Of the Mail. and S. Walter Kaufman,
a former director of the Mail and Ex-
press company, and one time counsel
OF the German Embassy in the United
States, on Federal indictments grow
ing out OF the Mail purchase. Mr..
Becker made additional disclosures
regarding his investigation of the case
for the Department of Justice.
Mr.. Becker stated that evidence
would be submitted to contradict the
claim Of DR.. Rumely that the funds
with which he purchased the Mail
were advanced by Herman Sielcken, a
wealthy New York coffee merchant,
who died in Germany in October, 1917,
prior to the date OF Rumelys state
ment of ownership of the Mail, as
made to the alien property custodian.
In this statement Rumely listed a note
for 100000 held by Sielcken as the
only enemy interest in the newspaper.
The deputy attorney general charg.

THE charge that the Evening Mail
was owned by the German government
Is absurd. 1t was mine-absolutely
mine-and was subject to my sole
editorial control" declared DR.. Rune

land then announced his candidacy
for attorney general.
He challenged examination of the
news and editorial columns Of the
Mail, which he said have vigorously
supported the national policies since
Americas entrance into the war. He
declared his absolute and aggressive
loyalty to the land of my birth and
said that he had assisted by every
means in my power the vigorous pro-
secution of the war and the defeat of

LYRIC

The popular Poli Players, headed by Warda Howard and Dudley Ayers, will present this week, beginning with matinee today, one of George Cohan's greatest successes, Captain Kidd, Jr." The play comes to the Lyric direct from Broadway, this be- ing the first time that it has ever been played in stock and the advance in formation points to the play as being one of the best farces that this noted writer has conceived.
 There is not dull moment in Cap tain Kidd Jr." It is filled with laughs from the opening curtain, yet is not without the love theme that is so vital to a play of the melodramatic type.
 The entire cast of the Poli Players are admirably suited for the parts that have been assigned to them and will undoubtedly give the finished performance that is so characteristic . of them. You will enjoy Captain Kidd Jr."

POLES

Four frolicsome and fascinating shows will dominate the attention of Bridgeport today at Polls theatre, where double bills of vaudeville and feature photopay will be shown at each performance.
 An engagement extraordinary in Bridgeport vaudeville is that of E. F. Give & Company, winners of the re- cent Friars F'rolic contest in New York, who appear today to present the winning playlet, entitled 'The Poor Stiff" An eminent cast of Broadway favorites will positively take part in the comic action of the hilarious farce-uUmedy.
 Of equal importance on the screen, and reproducing in Bridgeport scenes actually taken here, is "The Garden of Allah" the big ten-act presenta- tion of one of the greatest stories ever written. From the pen of Rob- ert Kitchens, this celebrated stage and literary success is portrayed by no less celebrity than Helen Ware, in her original state character, "Domini,' and by Thomas Santschi as Boris" " It is a pageant of life, panorama of passion in the burning desert-where men and women, too, may love more fervently than in any other place.
 Adding to the holiday spirit of the occasion other noted vaudeville ar lists have been booked by the Poi management as added attractions to the hedlining features.
 Walsh & Ingraham, foremost expo nents of the pianistic art and song- lands prime pep-mongers, will play and sing their way to first place ir Bridgeport'G hearts.
 One of the most daring and auda- cious of all animal acts is that o1 Pauline and her Leopards. In a fear less manner she commands her fero' cious beasts with a rule of iron and while ones hair stands on end, makes them do stunts with ease and grace which brings their sagacity almost tc the intelligence mark.
 Jay Raymond, autocrat of monolo- gy, brings all the latest talk and dec lamation from the Great White Way His way is winning and his art hys- terical in laughter.
 Animated News, always fresh, car ries the spectator into the midst o1 every great event.

 Miss Ruebens has come to be rec Ognized as one of America's most charming and most forceful Heads and her work in this delightful story of the day is an artistic and dramatic achievement.
 The vaudeville program is head lined by Suzanne Rocamora and com pany in their ludicrous farce entitled At the Ladies' Club" Here's a chance for you male folk to see just what goes on at the club that keeps your spouse from having hash ready when you return from your daily grind and you'd better be on hand to set a few tips.
 Noodles Pagan, for years known as 'The King of the Newsboys," and company of enteraoiners will appear in a singing and comedy offering that vii be a sure-fire hit. Noodles is popular in Bridgeport as he is in al- most every other part of the country and his reception will undoubtedly be an enthusiastic one.
 Pond Albright and Palmer, a triC of male songsters with voices that harmonize admirably and with a rep ertoire of song hits that will go over big have been booked for an impor- tant spot, while the Francetti Sisters aerial sensation should be one of the interesting reatutres of the bill.

CHICKENS

CHICKENS
 Chickins are 2 legged berds Wlch lay eggs and then set on them, and other chickins come out of them wen they get reddy. The last chickin that comes out is the youngest.
 Some chickins grow up to be hens and some grow up to be roosters, the roosters making the most noise but the hens doing most of the work, and both of them taisting so mutch alike you cant tell the diffrents. This proves that everybody is equal wen they're dead.
 Same people think the egg came before the chickin and some thinW the chickin came ferst, but it was sutch a long time ago that proberly nobody that was there is alive to prove it. A egg is mutch cheeper than a chickin and also mutch easier to eat, unless it is so soft you half to use bred. A spoon is the most usefill with a egg, vile a nife and fork is most usefill with a chickin, proving that the younger you are the easier it is to take advantage of you.
 Chickins eat corn wen sumbody throws it to them, and wen sumbody don't they dig up werms with their feet and eat them, proberly being a grate serprize to the Werms for little vile. Boosters crow with their voices, being how they wake themselves up.
