COMMUNITY HOUSE
PLANS DISCUSSED

, A meeting of business men
and women was held in the Har-
din Hut, Thursday evening, to
hear Miss Florence Frederick
son, of st. Louis, a Red Cross
worker, discuss plans for a
Community House here.
Miss Frederickson made it
plain that the money to build
such a house would have to be
raised locally. That the Red
Cross and other organizations of
a public character could rent
quarters in the building and thus
assist in it's maintenance but
otherwise could not be active in
financing it.
She made a splendid address
on the needs for such a building
here and in any community.
There were a large number of in
terested listeners present. No
definite action was taken at the
meeting.

Or. MANCHESTER
MAY Be EDITOR

DR.. A. L. Manchester, Dean of
the Musical Department of Har-
din College, may be made the
editor of a musical magazine
which probably will be published
in the near future. He has just
returned home from a conven-
ton in Chicago where plans were
discussed.
During the months of June
and July the musical world has
its conventions. Last week DR..
Manchester attended the annual
meeting of the Missouri Music
Teachers Association. Later he
attended the convention of the
Association of Presidents in
Chicago.
The latter organization is in
terested in all matters of nation
al interest in the musical world.
Foremost among these is the
standardization of music teach
ing. 1t is the purpose of the or
ganization to establish a musical
magazine as the official organ of
the state organizations and to
discuss topics of national inter-
est. 1t proposes to make Dr..
Manchester editor-in-chief as his
long experience as editor of the
Etude, the Musician, and the
Messenger makes this apoint-
ment eminently fitting.
While in Chicago, he was as
socited with David Bisham, a
noted American baritone and
music teacher; Walter Spry,
head of the Columbia school of
music; John j. Hattstedt, direc-
tor of the Chicago College of
Music, and David A. Clippinger,
one of Chicago's most influential
music teachers.
At the Association of Presi-
dents Convention Mr.. Manches-
ter, who has been the secretary
treasurer for the past term, was
reelected. He will soon issue
the proceedings for the last
three years.

AMERICAN LEGION MEETS.
James BledsOe Post to Stage
Campaign for Members.

The James Bledsoe Post of the
American Legion met and the
'Elks Home for the third of their
meetings since being organized.
As yet the membership of I
Legion is not up to what it
expected to be and a campai,
will soon be put on for me
members.
AT the present time the Posi-
has only 1876 members out of all
the men who went from Audrain
County into the service. Out of
the 934 who were in it from Aud
rain this is only a small part and
efforts are to be made for at least
five hundred members by next
Christmas. This number was
placed as the minimum for which
they would work for.
The membership committee
composed of Roy Greasy, chair
man; Garrett Barnes, Marvin
Carter, Charley Martin and Gale
Johnson, decided on a plan of
campaign for the remaining
members.
The constitution and bylaws
which are being framed by Wal
lace Fry will soon be ready for
the Legion. The time of Il
next meeting has not been c
cided on but it is thought it v
be in the near future.

CLOUDBURST VISITS
COUNTY FRIDAY

One of the hardest rains the
county has experienced this year
struck the county and Mexico
shortly before noon Friday. The
day dawned with the sun shin
ing but about nine o'clock clouds
began to appear in the north
west, until finally the entire sky
was overcast and the storm
broke.
A high wind and thunder
storm accompanied the cloud
burst and for over an hour it
ragged in and near Mexico. Bus
mess all over the city was par
alyzed for the time of the temp
est.
Some of the old weather
prophets down town were the
first to notice the clouds on the
horizon and they reported that
Their would soon be rain. Later
the masses of clouds that con-
tinued to pile up from the north
west overcast the entire sky un-
til the bright sunshine was COM
pletely blotted out. From a deep
grey the clouds nearer the earth
turned to a grayish green. The
lowermost clouds seemed to be
only a few feet above the dome
on the Court House as they
scudded across the sky with a
mazing rapidity driven by a high
wind that was at first not not
iced so much at this lower level,
but which made itself evident at
the beginning of the storm.
Reports indicate that although
all of the creeks in the county
are full they are still in their
banks except in places where the
creek-bed was unusually shallow.
The length of the rain was not
sufficient to. overflow the banks.
In some places in Mexico, a few
cellars were slightly flooded on
account of the sudden downfall
of water. No great damage was
done however in the city.
1t is thought the rain did not
do much harm through the coun.
ty as most of the wheat has beer
shocked. The rain was badly
needed on the other hand in
some sections for other crops
and no doubt were beneficial to
the farmer.
According to Mrs. Abbey
Snoddy, official weather obser.
VIZ about one and one-quartel
inch of rain fell in a little more
than forty-five minutes. Up tt
two-thirty Friday afternoon IA;
inches of rain had fallen, from
the time it started raining short
ly before elevn o'clock.

The gun will likely be placed on the
Court House lawn upon its arrival,
1t was captured by American troops
when they were fighting the Huns on

Quite a number of citizens were fav-

part in the war and the splendid rec
ord of our fighting men. Just when

BEWARE OF ARMY WORMS.
County Agent Warns Farmers to
Watch.
fulton SUM-


County Agent Schowengerdt has
received word that outbreaks Of the
army worms have occurred in several
counties in Missouri. AS all farmers
know, this pest is widely d~estructible
but fortunately we have means Of
control that are one hundred per-
cent efficient. The following formu--
la, when properly prepared and ap-
piled, has given splendid results in
other counties. Should the army worm
appear in Galloway County, farmers
are urged to call up the County Agent
at once and he will be glad to help
them get rid of the pest as quickly as
possible. The receipt recommended
by the Department Of Entomology
and by the County Agent follows:
20 pounds bran
l pound white arsenic or Paris
Green.
A to 6 lemons or oranges
2 quarts syrup
8 gallons water.
Thoroughly mix the dry ingredients
and the wet ingredients ' separately
and then combine the whole mass.
| The amount of water given will pro-
duce a mash of a consistency that is
Just right to scatter broadcast. This
! amount of material will v from 8
to 5 acres. In Ease it is %impractic-
| able to secure the poison bran mash,
recourse could be made to the meth
cd of running a deep furrow in adj
vance of the worms from time to time
dragging a log through this as the
worms collect in the furrow. Post
| poles in the bottom of the furrow will
also be effective in collecting the
: worms in masses where they could
be destroyed by the application of a
small amount of kerosene. This lat
ter method, of course, canot be used
where the worms are scattered over
wide areas, as in a wheat field or
alfalfa field. The poison bran mash
is applicable under almost all condi-
tions. .
The County Agent suggests that
this formula may be made rather eco
nomically by securing black strap mo-
iasses or stock molasses in place of
syrup, and by using partially decayed
oranges or lemons in place of good
ones. This will cheaper the cost Of
material, but not lesson its effective
ness.

HUN OFFICERS TAKE OWN LIVES
Suicides in Prussia Jumped 38 Per
Cent After News of Kaiser's Trial

GENEVA, July 10.-Suicides among
the German officers are increasing
alarmingly, especially in Prussia,
where the number of suicides is SO
per cent more than before it became
known that former Emperor William
was to be placed IN trial by the Allies,
according to Munich newspapers. The
wives of officers also are reported to
be taking their own lives. The in
crease in the number of suicides is at
tributed not only to patriotic despair,
but TO the loss of the officers past
social position.

UPHOLD BIRD TREATY ACT.
Judge Van Valkenburgh Decides New
Law is Constitutional.

The attorney general of Missouri
Frank W. McAllister, has been defeat
ed in the first round Of his court fight
in behalf of spring duck shooters of
the state to have the Migratory Bird
Treaty Act declared unconstitutional.
Judge Arba S, Van Valkenburgh Of
the federal court handed down an
opinion declaring the law constitu-
tional and refusing the application of
the attorney general to have Ray P,
Holland, United States game warden,
and his deputies restrained from en-
forcing the law against s~portsmen.
The attorney general announced
when he filed suit, several months ago
that he intended to carry the case to
the United States Supreme Court, if
defeated in the lower courts. He
maintained the law is an Infringement
on the states police powers and is in
violation of the federal constitution.
