Columbus. - Especial Correspond
ence. Edwin Jones of Jackson, Ohio,
business man, is a candidate for the
Republican nomination for Governor.
He will make an active canvass for
the honor and shortly will open an
Ofiice in Columbus to further his can
didacy.
Some time ago, Mr.. Jones an
nounced his intention Of seeking the
nomination, but he has not been doing
campaign work because he is chair
man Of his local Liberty Loan and
War Stamp Committees and all of his
time has been devoted to those &C
tivities.
When Mr.. Jones announced his can
didacy, he gave out this statement:

ing confidence in the foresight, ability
and patriotism Of a properly cOnstitut-
ed convention for the adoption of a
platform that will represent true Re
publican principles and one that will
best protect the interests of the peo-
pie of our state.
eff nominated and elected, I will
conduct the affairs of the state in the
most economical and business-like
manner possible, consistent with good
government
II believe in the strict enforcement
Of all laws and that the majority shall

What His TOWnsmen Say
When Mr.. Jones made known his
intention of seeking the gubernatorial
nomination, the business men of jack
son endorsed his candidacy Every
banker and every manufacturer in
Jackson signed and made public this
tribute:

wives.
Fred C. Croxton, Federal Food Ad-
ministrat0r fer Ohio, answers the
question in announcing the plan for
meeting the needs Of the housewife,
who will require additional sugar for
preserving and canning.
A sugar certificate has been pre-
pared and supplied to retailers by the
County FOOd Administration Commit
tee. By signing one Of these certifi-
Gates, estimating the number of
pounds Of sugar needed for preserva-
tiOn and canning and guaranteeing to
return any surplus not used for this
purpose, the housewife may supply
her wants for the canning season.
If the grocer does not have a sup
ply Of certificates, write to the Fed
eral FOod Administration at Colum-
Gus, and certificates will be sent.
The Food Administration will again
this year encourage home canning and
preserving even to greater extent
than it did last year.
i To the end that housewives may
have an ample supply Of sugar, manu-
facturers using it for non-edible pro-
ducts have had their supply cut of
and less essential industries such as
confectiOneries and soft drink houses
have been put on limited ration. All
manufacturers using sugar are now
having their supply allotted to them by
the Food Administration. They can
cnly buy sugar on special certificates
issued by the Food Administration.
Household sugar certificates will be
cOuntersigned by the retailer who
sells sugar and turned in to the Food
Administration, where they will be
closely checked.
Housewives are placed on their
honor in this plan. Those who abuse
the system will be detected when the
Cancelled certificates are filed with the
Feed Administration and will be pros.

The French have had a naval

of the Lorraine sector for some
time, and the naval units have
made their part of the line as
shipshaLe as possible, with ev-
Ierything from big naval guns
down to sleeping hammOcks and
ships cats.
The American sol1iers bilieted

ernOr's Office of fOrceful, earnest and
tarslghted business man, rather than
a mere politician; and we feel that
Mr.. Jones, possessing as he does these
qualifications, is peculiarly fitted for
this office.
I'VE cannot speak too highly of his
ability, his sterling uprightness, his
universal fairness and sense of justice,
and his superb business qualities. AS
an employer of labor he always has
had the good will of his employees and
has established for himself an envia-
BILE reputation for fair dealing as be-
tween capital and labor.
His political acumen and organiz-
ing abilities were we'll displayed in
the service he rendered the Republi-
can party while acting as Chairman
of its State Executive Committee in
the campaign of 1914.
Speaking, as we believe we do, for
| all the financial and commercial in
terests OF Jackson, we heartily COM
mend Mr. Jones to the voters of Ohio,
as possessing in the highest degree all
the qualities necessary to enable him
to perform the duties of the Office in a
most satisfactory manner"
In common with every business
man, Mr.. Jones has devoted time and
energy to the upbuilding of his manu-
featuring interests and the production
of coal. His mines have been and are
under lease, so the recent mining con-
ditions have not affected him. Despite
the demands of business upon his
time he has taken the right kind of
interest in public affairs. He was
mayor of Jackson in 19OS-1909 and
served eight years in the Jackson
council. He has been on county. dis
trict and state Republican commit
tees; was chairman of the Republican
State Executive Committee in 1914 and
a delegate to the Republican National
Convention.
Edwin Jones' friends have recog-
nized his loyalty and patriotic activi-
ties by calling him "Old-Win- -the-War''
Jones. He is serving as chairman of
the Liberty Loan and War Stamp Com
mittees in his district He is proud of
the fact that his two sons. Donald and
Dwight, are in the Navy and partici-
pated in the capture of German Sub
marine U-52. The grandfather of these
boys-Mr. Jones father-was a cap-
tain in the Civil War
I Edwin Jones is 50 years of age, of
Welsh parentage, and affiliated with
the Presbyterian Church.

USE MORE MILK.

Milk is one of the most important
food sources the human race pos
sesses. For the proper nourishment
of the child it is absolutely indispen-
sable and it's use should be kept up
in the diet as long as possible. Not
only does it contain all the essential
food elements in the most available
form for ready digestion, but the re-
cent scientific discoveries show It to
be especially rich in certain peculiar
properties that alone render growth
possible. This essential quality
makes it also of special value in the
sick room. In hospitals it has also
been shown that the wounded recover
more rapidly when they have milk.
For the purpose of stimulating
growth, and especially in children,
butter fat and other constituents of
milk have no substitutes. Therefore,
every parent owes to himself, and to
his family the duty of providing re-
quisite amount of milk, butter, cheese
and other dairy products. During this
last winter when much agitation was
had in some of the larger cities over
the price of milk, which was advan-
ced from two to three cents per quart
by reason of the rapid rise in the
cost Of feed and labor, many families
among the poor were found giving
their children tea and coffee instead
OF milk. Such methods Of feeding fail
| toe nouriSh the child properly.
In spite of the shortage Of milk
IN Germany, that country has ct all
hazards maintained the milk ration of
The children and in the hospitals, even
though to do so meant that the adult
population has had to fOregO largely
its use. In a safety first" health
campaign it must be remembered that
It should be "children first" 4.
