To the Citizens Of Mishawaka

Accommodations for boarderS, roomerS,
and for families who may wish to do light
housekeeping must be provided in MiSha-
waka at once
A large number of additional employees
are being brought here to work in the
various factories operated by this COM
pany, largely upon work required in con-
nection with the National Defense pro-
duCtion.
This work must be expedited in every
way possible and men who are now en-
ployed in industries not considered eS-
Sential to the winning of the war are de-
SirouS of taking up work elsewhere Many
of these men are willing and anxious to
come to MiShawaka if suitable accomno-
dationS can be provided.
In other communities, patriotic people
are setting aside rooms for newcomers in
their cities and many are also providing
board with the rooms. They are realz-
ing the importance of getting supplies to
the ShipyardS and other government de-
pots to the extent that they are willing to
double up on their own rooms, thus al
lowing them to rent portions of their
homes to others for light housekeeping
Others have found it both advisable
and profitable to erect small additions to
their houses and thus make two houses
for temporary use.
LII this emergency we invite the COOP
Grafton of the people of MiShawaka to as
SiSt in taking care of these people who
will be brought here, many of whom will
no doubt become permanent residents
and require permanent homes.
All those who feel that they can thus
periodically and to their own profit serve
the community and the Nation in this
hour of need are urged to write us fully
just what they are able to offer along
these liueS.
In your letter state name and address.
particulars of the rooms, rent expected
and when ready for occupancy. If YOU
feel that you would like to be of service
TO your country and to your home town
in this manner and yet feel that there
may be additional expense in getting
your property ready for occupancy
which, you do not feel at this time as
sumo, tell us frankly in your letter the
circumstance and we may be able to as
assist you in the matter.
Please think this over and let us hear
from you at once.

Sim went in, shut the door and

where they had been hiding showing
great distress. One by one they

When Sim died the cowboy who
watched beside him in his last hours

THE Germans are now saying that a
league Of nations wouldn't be a
bad idea. Realizing that they are on
the toboggan. they are grabbing at
the league of nations with the hope
it Will offer them a way out. When
the Germans began their big often
sives in the spring, Won Hertling,
speaking for the war party, declared
that league of nations to enforce
peace was impossible Because the
Germans were winning, he ridiculed
the plan. But now we are told by
Count Czernin, former Austrian min
lister of foreign affairs, that the au-
thoritative factors in the Berlin cab
met today openly favor the proposal
of league of nations. Will the Ger
mans reap the full harvest of the
whirlwind they created or will they
be permitted to make peace that
will head off their fatherland being
devastated by invading armies and
given dose of the same medicine
they gave to Belgium and France and
Russia and Serbia and the other ma
tons they have attempted to crush?
1t is no secret that Great Britain,
France and the United States would
seriously have considered the league
proposal few months ago. But Will
they now? There is very strong
sentiment that Germany must be

TALES OF TOWN
WHEN THE SHELL STICKS.
When the ducks are flynn in

When the ducks are flynn in
And you're out behind the tuie.
With thought of roasted teal
Kind O. stealing through your soul,
What can make a man more angry,
More inclined to snort and swear
Than to have she'll get stuck
While the ducks are in the air?
When the mallards start a-quackin'
AS they circle near the lake,
And in fancy you can see EN-
AS you put 'em in to bake,
What can mar the whole days pleas
ure,
Put damper on your fun,
Like wet or swollen shell
When it sticks inside the gun?
With the teal and mallards settled
And the canvasbacks in sight,
And the flocks a-coming faster
Just as day is turnin' night,
What on earth can be more veXin'.
What can put all smiles to rout,
Like a pesky 12-guage shell
That gets stuck and won't conc
