The near tragedy occurred at about

Both had arisen and We're preparing

in the midst of their toilet and went
into the bathroom to wash After

heard the report OF a pistol and, rush
ing back into the bathroom, he found
his brother lying on the floor with IL

been supplied with weekly Chautau-
qua program, they may obtain one by
calling at The True Northerner Office.
Season tickets can be purchased at
any one of the Paw Paw business
places. 1t will be economy to buy a
season ticket, even if you cannot at
jtend but part of the week. One war
tax will be good for the week on a
season ticket, while on single ad-
missions, there is tax on every
ticket.
Rev. C. H. Heaton will finish his
training course this week, and is ex-

Rev. Heaton will speak at the Union

service will be held in the Big Chau-
tauqua tent, providing that seats
have been put in place in time. The
tent man will arrive Saturday morn
ing, and it is hoped that the tent can
be erected and seats put in place
Iduring the day.
The True Northerner carries a full
page Chautauqua ad in this issue.
Scan the lines of the page carefully
and note the long list of attractive
features for the week. The war
features of the program will be es-
pecially interesting and should make
standing room in the big tent at a
premium. This is the year of all
years that the people Of this COM
munity should give their enthusiastic
support to the Chautauqua. More
season tickets must be sold than ever
before. The Midland Chautauqua
Management has enough confidence
in the people of this community. that
no guarantee was asked. For that
reason, if for no other, every person
should make an extra effort to make
good this year.
The ladies of the Coterie and their
families to the number of nearly a
hundred enjoyed a midsummer pic
mic at the beautiful country home of
Mrs. Louise Thayer last Friday. The
tables were spread under the trees
near the house and looked very pretty
with the flower decorations and the
many good things to eat. Owing to
the extreme dry and hot conditions Of
the weather, the manager of the
"White Socks" from "Rumpus Ridge"
was overcome with the lock jaw,
while the pitcher for the "Black
Socks" from Peaceful Valley" was
stricken with a severe case of Brain
storm. Consequently this, the big
game of the season had to be called
off much to the disappointment of
the men rooters present. 1t did not
however affect their appetites and all
declared it one jolly good time, thanks
to the committee in charge and the
good cooks of the Coterie.

SURGICAL DRESSING NOTES

The August quota came too late to
get our opening dates well advertised,
but the response to our as. o. s."
has been most gratifying, during the
heat.
The shop opened Monday, August
18th, at / 80 p. Nj. and we arranged
to run both afternoons and evenings
during that week in order to rush
the quota through and close up for
Chautauqua. so that people might at
tend the latter with clear con-
science.
= Good gauze was assured us and we
are certain the work would go fast If
we could only have plenty of work
ers, even if it is very hot. Through
the courtesy of the Masonic lodge we
have two large electric fans, and Mr..
Harvey Sherman and Mr.. Bert Dun
combe have also each donated a fan,
so that through their kindness we are
cooler making dressings than you are
"slackerizing" at home. Besides, the
bows in the trenches don't stop for
the heat, and they don't have any
fans. either.
Please bring your time cards with
you when you come to the Shop. II
YOU have no card, apply to the Super
visor and she will see that you have
one. All hours of work are checked
up this way IN earning crosses, for
service rendered.
Please wear your crosses. Women
who have earned them are requested
not to forget the crosses they have
won. The crosses show that the
wearer has been more than a spas
modic worker, and it is a Just credit
to our Shop in the eyes of visitors
to have most of the women wearing
crosses. 1t shows that we are work
ers. The Shop is trying to do efficient
work. It is your place to wear YOUR
cross and show that we have workers
who spend definite time making these
dressings.

My Dear Grandad:
There is no special news to write.
A letter from Ralph tells me that he
is feeling fine, but | cannot find out
whether | am near him or not.
The Boches came alive yesterday,
lust to let us know there were some
of them cover there, but we got in
to our holes in plenty of time. A
210 M. going over our heads surely
binds great respect in a fellow though
I have been in the first line trench
es and also in an o. p. observation
post) in no-man's land for the pur-
pose of observing our fire for one day
and I had chance to conduct the
fire for little while. This surely is
an interesting game.
We are having great weather and
good time, most of the time.
Love to you all
Oran.
Ralph is his brother.
