CHURCH CREEK RAISES
QUOTA In QUICK time
Gets The Fifth Helmet-At Meeting
Held Last Night Quota of District
Was Raised in Record Time.

People below Cambridge do not
raise much noise about what they
do, but to use a slang expression,
they are "there with the goods.
The only districts thus far in the
Fifth or Victory Loan that have
gone over the top are the down the
county districts, starting with Ell
liott, then came Straits, then Taylor's
Island, then Madison, and last night
Church Creek, with the Neck prac-
tically up, making a total of six dis
tricts out of eight that have COM
pleted their quotas; of the two 9TH
ers, Lakes and Hooper's Island, it is
expected that both will complete
their quotas by the end of the week.
There will be meeting at Ebene-
zer Church, Crapo, tonight, at which
the Citizens Band Orchestra will
furnish music, and V. Calvin Trice,
Esq, will. make an address, and it is
confidently believed that Lakes will
complete its quota tonight. And the
good people of Hooper's Island are
not going to lag behind their sister
districts, making the eight lower dis
tricts right up TO the mark in back
ing up the government with their
men and money.

The Jonah

A great play, which was given in
Harper's Hall, Hurlock, Friday ev-
ening, May End. will be given at
East New Market, in the Parish
House, Friday evening, May 9Th. The
people of East New Market and VI
cinity will have an opportunity to
see one of the cleverest plays which
has been recently written.
"The Jonah is a comedy seldom
produced outside of the cities, where
it has been staged frequently by
dramatic clubs.
The following is the story of the
play:
A henpecked husband celebrates
the return of mis- son, who has been
away for three years, and the morn
ing after the trouble begins.
A down-and-out stranger arrives,
whom he has invited to visit him.
While at the celebration the night
before, 1.-The Jonah tells startling
stories of Johns younger days to
the wife. The son is confronted
with girl who supposed that she
had become engaged to him three
years previous. The complications
that arise are uproariously. funny.
The entire production is well cast
John Hildreth is played by Roltza
Hubbard, and the son, John Hildreth,
Jr., by Lemuel Hastings; Mrs. Hid
reth, Miss Catherine Harper; The
Jonah, Darcy Pitts; Misses Eunice
Todd, Odessa Rhue, Mildred Hast
ings and Annetla Twilley play Emily
Hildreth, Nataline Buskin, Miranda
Ann, Arabella McSnatch, while Nata-
lie finds "a proud Father in Courtney
Cummings.
Miss Zutavern has taken much
pains and has made this third of her
play series g.eat success, and
with ''The JONAH" gives very fine
musical sketch, "Over the Garden
Wall" She has selected the best
songs from the best musical shows,
and popular hits, and has woven
them into attractive choruses. In the
ten songs about thirty people are
used. Mr.. Lee Neal sings two of the
most popular melodies and plays the
accompaniment to Liza Jane on the
mandolin. Miss Virginia Hastings
sings when You Found Me-" and
Mr.. Waddel1 sings Beautiful Ohio. I"
The show does not lack its element
of comedy, which is supplied by"How
va Gonna Keep EN- Down on The
Farm" by Mary Virginia Wheatley
and Harrington Smith.
The Darktown Strutters Ball sung
by Mildred Hastings and Courtney
Cummings is an exceptional black
face number. -.
The curtain will rise at SIS, and
an evening of frst-class entertain
ment is assured. Admission, 35c.;

Wingate, Nd, May s. 1919.


Mr.. Editor:
We noticed in the columns of your
these: Elliott, the Baby District
of the county, with a population OF
around 250 inhabitants, gave more
sons to the service of our country
during the late war than any other
district"
We do not challenge any district;
we wish them all the enjoyment and
pride they can get for themselves
and their sons, but we kindly ask it
you will publish the enclosed list of
the sons of Straits district, who were
called to the colors. All did not
serve abroad, but not through any
fault of their own; yet we had some
sons who were at st. Mihiel, Mont
faucon, Verdun, Argonne, and we do
feel like rendering thanks to AL
mighty God every time we see one
of our boys returning home. for hav-
ing kept them and preserved their
lives. Yet, our hearts are filled with
sorrow and sympathy for the two
who will never 1eturn.y One died at
Camp Meade, and the other on the
battle fields of France, somewhere
near Montfaucon. Their memories
will ever live with us, and we ex-
tend sympathy to their bereayed pa
rents, but when we consider the
number who left home, and the loss
of only two, We do think it almost
miracle.
Our population during the war-was
about 500, and we gave Is to so
boys. We may have missed some
who served; if so, we hope they will
notify the Editor later. We do not
wish to leave anyone out Of the list,
and we ask that you publish the list
in order that other districts may
publish their lis. of sons who served
their country, and are yet living. !.

Straits district:
