IN MEMORY OF
CLAUD GREEN

1 William Claud Green was born
Dec. II. 1876 in Parker County,
Texas, and died Oct. IL. 1918.
At the age Of fourteen he moved
with his fathers family to the plains
At eighteen he became a Christian
and his life Of active service attests
his sincerity Always was he found
on Lords day at the place Of wor-
ship, an attentive, faithful worker in
all church work. Truly can it be
said of him that he was mot hear
er only"
Claud. as he was affectionately
called. during his long period of res
idence among us, by his cheerful dis
position endeared himself TO many
hearts. He loved to sing the old sa-
cred songs being his choice. Often
was he found busy at work, with
song in his heart.
Happy is the man who thinks the
most interesting thoughts, Is the mot
TO Of a great man Perhaps this is
why "Claud' could see the better
side though clouds sometimes came
his way. He could think kindly of
,he better part Of things.
He was member Of the Church
- Christ. Here he'll be missed from
his accustomed place, not only by
those who knew and loved him best,
hi by the entire membership

INQUIRE FOR LOST AND FOUND ARTICLES
AT ZION BANK

Zion Bank would very much appreciate it if
persons who have lost articles of any description
would promptly call there and inquire for them.
For years, Zion Bank has conducted lost and
found department, and hundreds of articles are
turned in there constantly Occasionally the space
gets filled up and it becomes necessary to carry
load into another part of the building and dump
it in heap.
There are at present, between three and four
hundred pairs of spectacles held for persons who
have never taken the trouble to inquire for them.
There are pocket-books by the score; also large
numbers of Bibles, hymn books, school books, UNI
brellas, hats, caps Shoes gloves, mittens, wraps,
furs chicken feeders and every other kind of con-
ceivabe and inconceivable article imaginable. 1t
requires very little effort to stop at the bank win
dow when shopping in Zion Stores and make
inquiry.
REMEMBER, LOST AND FOUND AR
TICLES ARE LEFT AT ZION BANK.

HOW ABOUT SEED CORN FOR 1919?

Every farmer in Lake County should remember
the seed corn situation of 1918 and govern him
self accordingly. Last spring southern grown
seed corn sold locally for as much as $500 per
bushel. There was but very little home grown
seed available We have no seed corn reserve, so
let us not be caught again. Sufficient seed corn
can be saved in Lake County during the next two
weeks to more than plant our entire crop in 1919.
Save enough seed now for both 1919 and
1920.

Seed should be saved from varieties adapted to
our conditions.

Seed corn should be stored in dry, yell 9ent'I-

MARKED GROWTH OF ZION INSTITUTIONS
AND INDUSTRIES

The General Overseer on last Lords Day. in
speaking of the splendid showing made by Zion
institutions and Industries in the last six months,
said:
I'VE will not have to grow very much more
until we will be doing an annual business of two
million dollars We haven't been at it very long.
Just few years ago we began with an investment
of ten dollars, and that is the way thing should
start - begin small and build up.
Under Gods guidance and protection, it takes
three things to build up an organization - mind
money and muscle Don't let the man who works
only with his muscle think that the fellow who sits
in an office has little to do. Anyone who has
tried it knows that the man who plans, governs and
directs has far harder task than the one who
works only with his hands. He it is who carries
the burdens and upon him the responsibility rests.

Early selected seed corn often contains 5000
Of moisture so when seed ears are stored the corn
itself should not touch anything else until properly

When moisture is reduced to 1870 or less, the

ANALYSIS OF THE VOTE

The Wamkegan Sun Of September II, analysed
the recent primary election in Lake County, as
follows
An analysis of the vote on county candidates in
Waukegan and Zion City shows an interesting
situation. In Waukegan it is noticed that Roy
Bracher received majority in all of the IA pre-
cincts. In Zion City Rosing received majority
in each of the five precincts.
The vote in Waukegan on the county candi-
dates follows:

County next year"

grown seed had to be shipped into Lake County

was about $50. In the county treasureship fight
the results are especially interesting for all can
didates had waged an intensive campaign in,
Waukegan Despite the fact that he had an
nounced his withdrawal from the campaign Yeo-
man received 1874 votes in Waukegan alone.
Rosing, who had been supported by States At
torney WEIGH and his organization, received 2o3
votes in the entire city The fact that Morse
received but GOA votes in the city came as a sur
prise for it was figured he would run much
stronger here The fact that Bracher piled up a
total of 1888 votes in Waukegan alone winning
in every precinct, came as a surprise to even
Bracher himself. He had waged consistent
campaign, but had not looked for such crafty
ing results. His popularity in Waukegan how
ever, was reflected throughout the country
In Zion City
The effect of Volivas endorsement is shown
plainly in the Zion City vote. Hendee, Green
and Rosng who received Voiva's endorsement
all ran far ahead Of their opponents. Voliva de-
livered over 500 votes to each of the candidates
he endorsed.
The totals in Zion City are interesting because
they show Voliva's ability to deliver the entire
voting strength Of his faction whenever he de-
sires. They are as follows:

M'LEAN TAKES PAIR
OUT OF THREE RACES

Saranac Lake, N. Y, Feb. S.-Bobby
Mclean OF Chicago cleared up two of
the three races on the card yesterday
in the two-day match against Edmund
Lamy of Saranac Lake for the world s
championship. Mclean won the go
yard dash and the one-mile pursuit.
Lamy got the two-nile pursuit.
Mclean appeared to be in better
condition than his opponent. He has
worlds of confidence and declared he
will win the 440-yard, half-mile pur-
suit and three-mile pursuit tomor-
row.
In the 220-yard event today Lamy
drew the pole and led for about fifty
feet, when Mclean caught up with
come the lead. Lamy did not seem to
back stretch and led the Saranac Lake
skater by 80 feet at the finish. The
time was 0:20.
In the one-mile pursuit Mclean
gained quarter of lap early in the
race and Lamy was not able to over
come the lead. Yamy did not seem to
be skating with his old-time strength,
and at times appeared to be worried
Mclean WOE by seven feet. The time
was 6:55h.
Lamy extended himself more in the
two-mile pursuit, although the race
was very even throughout. The long
e- distance appeared to favor Lamy,
but the finish was close, as Mclean
sprinted Tor the last lap and cut
Lamy's lead down at the finish to five
feet. The time was els.

TWO SIGN UP and
ONE LEAVES CLUB
DOME Bush and Bill James Are Both
Satisfied With Salary-Ncither
Reported Cut.

Detroit. Feb. S.-Two more mem-
bers of the Detroit Americans have
signed their contracts and another OF
Manager Jennings recruits has quit
baseball to serve his country.
DOME Bush. shortstop, and Bill
James, the big right hand twirler,
came to Detroit from their homes in
Indianapolis and Ann ArbOr respec-
lively, and attached their signatures
to the 1918 papers. Each player said
he was well satisfied with his salary
and this fact has caused super-keen
students of baseball to believe that
neither man sustained much OF a cut
in pay. 1t is doubtful if Bush has
his salary reduced at all as he had a
remarkable season in 1917. He hit
about thirty points above his normal
speed and fielded like grey ghost.
With the signing Of James, it be-
came known that he made two at
tempts this winter to join the army
while on the Pacific coast. He was
rejected because of defective eyesight
James is eligible for the selective
draft and may be called for military
service before the baseball season
! opens.
George Maisel, brother Of Fritz, has
been drafted in Maryland. Maisel is
the property of the Detroit club and
as an outfielder and hitter made a
fine record last season with the Sar
Francisco team.
