RED CROSS Will
TURNOVER ROOM
Furnished By Mr.. w. r. Wheeler for
War Work. Only One VIII
Be Retained For Summer.

The two rooms generously donated
by W. w. r. Wheeler to the local
Red Cross for work during the recent
war will be turned back to him on
the first day of June.
These rooms are located on 18th
street near the corner of Main. One
is used for a sewing room and the
other for a packing and Office room.
The latter will be rented during the
,Asummer and still retained as Red
Cross Headquarters. This room will
also be used by Mrs. Dagg, secretary
of the Civilian Relief Committee, as
an efice, in the place of the room
nov fbeing used in the Pennyroyal
building.
Mr.. Wheeler offered the used of the
rooms for longer period if needed,
but the Red Cross decided that the
Sewing Room could easily be dis
pensed with, as any sewing yet to
be done, can be carried home by the
ladies doing the work and completed

WILL SIGN AFTER DELAYING AS
LONG AS POSSIBLE FOR
FUTURE EFFECT
SORENESS AND RAc-cHEwINc
Not Their Nature To Accept Defeat
Gracefully and Go to Work
To Pay.

Not alone has Count Won Brock
dorff- -Rantzau, chief Of the German
peace plenipotentiaries, returned to
Versailles from Spa, where he went
Saturday for conference but he
brought back with him Herr Langs-
burg and Herr Giesberts, two of the
main members of the German delega-
tion who had been in Berlin going
over the situation with the authori-
ties and also a large retinue of naval,
military and financial experts.
Thus, indications are that the Ger
mans intend to continue their eff
forts to come into agreement with
the allied and associated representa-
tives on peace terms that will be sat
isfactory to the German Government
and people.
Meanwhile reports continue to
emanate from Germany of dissatis-
faction over the terms laid down for
Germany to sign and a reiteration by
President Ebert that the Germans
will never affix their signatures to
the treaty as it stands and that for
eign countries will protest with Ger
many against this "peace enslave-
ment."
On the other hand Field Marshal
Won Hindenburg is reported to have
told the members of the German cab
met, representatives of the political
parties and other leaders in a meet
ing in Berlin Friday that resistance
was impossible and that the military
leaders considered it necessary to
seal the compact as desired by the
allies.
Germany will sign and appeal.
She realizes than humanity will in
a few short years forget about the
jusiee which demanded this treaty,
and will remember only the harshness
of it's terms. Hence Germany is now
trying to effect an entrance into the
league of nations and appeal to la
Dor, knowing that in the league will
be found strong neutral influences,
ana III laDor circles SLrong current
of internationalism.
The court of the worlds conscience
will be in the league of nations, and
the stronger labor is in the court, the
stronger chance will Germany have
to ameliorate the terms of the treaty
in few years.
At the end of the fifteen allotted
days the Germans will demand time
in which to take objections and an
swers to Weimar. This surely will
be granted them. The terms Of the
,reaty are too harsh to allow the al
les to force unconditional signing of
The treaty, because it is evident Ger
many is filing these daily objections
TO the treaty much as lawyer OBJ
iects and saves exceptions for record
IN appeal.

FAR BEHIND WITH CROPS AND
TOBACCO CROP is NOT
YET PLANTED
STRAWBERRIES ARE SUFFERING
Corn Cannot Be Plowed and Weeds
Are Not Waiting For
Dry Weather.

The repeated rains have made it
impossible for many farmers to COM
plete the preparation of their tobac-
co lands, and all sorts of expedients
are being resorted to in order to get
the overgrown plants set out. One
farmer is reported to have marked
off the ground by showing a wheel
barrow across his ground to make
the checks. Wherever possible drags
have been used and plants set out
in the mud. Wheeler Cayee is one
farmer who has finished planting his
crop of ten acres. j. T. Garnett has
set 20 of 100 acres and Howard
Giles 40 of 80 acres to be cultivated.
The farmers generally have out from
25 to so per cent of their crops.
Plants are plentiful and over
grown.
Another very hard rain fell Mon
day and yesterday was also rainy
day, in spite of the prediction of
clear and warmer weather.
The strawberry crop at Pembroke
is suffering greatly from the wet
season. The crop is ready to pick
and one or two car loads have already
been shipped.
The rain will work untold damage
unless there is speedy change to
clear weather.
Corn is getting foul with grass and
farming operations are greatly retard
ed.
And still it rains.

CONTEST
Western Kentucky High School Rep
resentatives Meet At Ovens
boro May %.

The Western Kentucky Oratorical
Contest will be held at the Grand
theatre in Owensboro on Friday ev-
ening, May 23, at S:15 o'clock. Daw-
son Springs and Princeton will not
have a representative in this years
contest. There will be separate con-
tests for boys and girls.
Hopkinsville will be represented by
Clarence Pearcey. His subject is
Kentucky" Early in the spring,
Princeton, at which place the con-
test was to be held, notified the other
schools that it would be impossible
to hold the contest there. The con-
test was then called off. Owensboro
then volunteered to have the contest
there. Hopkinsville had dropped all
preparations for the contest when it
was called off and the decision to
have the contest came too late to have
preliminary contest here. A vol
unteer was called for and thus Clar-
ence Pearcey goes as a volunteer for
the High School. He is an able young
speaker and it is hoped that he will
carry away first honors for the
Orange and Black.
The following are the schools,
speakers and subjects of speeches:
Henderson High School-Hen
Taylor, The Challenger of the Fu-
ture; Annett Minnie, The Mansion of
America.
Madisonville High School-Boy,
National Traditions; Girl, knowledge
Love and Friendship.
Owensboro High School-Max Ba-

SPORTS

SAN FRANCISCO-The Purple Sox the cognomen by which the Seattle team of the Pacific Coast baseball league is to be known, ig not going to take any chances with untried players according to the manager Bill Clymer. According to reports CIymer is backed by more available money than any other manager in the league and he has been given full discretion to spend it in acquir- ing men who make up a pennant-win ming combination. D
 Seattles list of players as at pres ent made up is composed almost entirely of veterans of the game whC have made their mark in one or more or the baseball leagues of the coun try. The roll contains such we'll known names as those of Moose Marshall, former Southern Leaguer. Grover Land, veteran of several of the leagues, Falkenburg and Mains, ex big leaguers; Bowman, an AA league player; Pat Easily, Marty kavanaugh and others.
 According to one of the veteran coast sport writers, indications are that with the present lineup of play CTS the Seattle team is going to be lacking in the hitting department notwithstanding it's array of tried tai ent. This critic goes so far as to say that there are not more than two or three of the men who will be able to land in the 300 class in which he includes Jimmy Walsh and Joe Wilhoit. Of the others he says: "It is doubtful if there is another man in the whole squad who will wallop the ball for anything like that figure. without taking away one bit from the worth of these twc splendid outfielders, the fact re mains that there are men equal to them in every way in every other Outfield in the league"

HE HAS 100 BULLET SCARS
Soldier Coming Back Minus a Hane

home. He was wounded the night OF
July 6 while leading scouting patrol
over No Mans Land. German out.
posts discovered the scouting party,
and in the glare of "fares" the party
made good targets for the enemy ma.
chine gunners. All of the party with
the exception Of Ciamacco were killed.
Ciamacco, as the attending physician
recorded him, was "shot full of holes"
He was barely alive when picked up,
almost every portion of his body hav-
ing been struck by machine-gun bull
lets. His right arm was so badly
shattered that amputation of the hand
was necessary. Virtually all the flesh
was shot from his right leg, and only
a delicate skin-grafting operation
saved it. For several days he fingered
between life and death, but finally he
gained sufficient strength to permit
his being sent home.
