TAKEN BY DEATH
Entire Family Wiped Out in a Few
Weeks.

Many people will remember the
jovial and good natured county clerk
Of some years ago, Adebert p. Lane
whom everyone hailed as Dell" and
who had for many years resided in
Ithaca, with his wife and only child.
Harry, now a young man of about
thirty years Of age. Dell was also
secretary Of the State Firemen's as
sociation for several years.
Some time ago, Mrs. Lane became
afflicted with cancer, and after two
operations. finally succumbed to the
malady, and died. Just about "a week
or ten days before her death. Dell"
was stricken with heart trouble.
which resulted fatally, he preceding
his wife into the great unknown.
Harry Lane, the son, who was "A
teacher Of manual training in the
cast. came home and buried both his
father and his mother and after get
ting the property matters adjusted
and settled up. returned to his work
in the east, where. a short time ago
he was taken down with influenza
which developed into pneumonia. and
Wednesday morning a telegram was
received stating he had died the night
previous Thus, the grim reaper,
death, has in a few short weeks
wiped out this entire family.

Three Alma college men went TO
Lansing Saturday 20 the VI. A. c.
intercollegiate track meet and won
seven points for the Maroon and
Cream, nosing out the representatives
of both Ypsilanti Normal and Hills

Anderson, who went into the
weights just naturally smashed the

sending out the stick l52 feet. His
mark is only three feet short of NJ.

possible that Anderson may smash
this record at the college meet next

A petition for the paving of Wright
avenue from the end Of the present
paving, north to Elwell street was
submitted TO the city commission on
Tuesday evening. The petition con-
tanned the names Of every property
owner affected with one exception
and it is said that this person was
away. The petition was accepted and
placed on file. AS the sewer on this
street must be repaired and water
connections made before a pavement
is laid, it will probably be another
year before a pavement can be put
down on this street.

What Are You Worth?
By FLORENCE B. COTNAM, Director Woman's Department Arkansas War Savings
 Organization.

How much more are you worth to- day physically, mentally, financially than you were ten years ago?
 The increase is the measure of your ability to successfully round out your life, and is based on self respect. Re spect for your body will have dsvel- oped and strengthened 1t If you are on the sunny side of fifty. and conserved 1t if you have started down the hill.
 Respect for your mind will have kept it free from trash ani filled 1t with useful knowledge gained through study and experience.
 Respect for your financial standing will have added steadily, consistently and honorably to your savings and tn- creased your safe investments, until you have gained the respect and ad- miration of other men and can look toward the future with a feeling of se- curity.
 A systematic investment in Thrift and War Savings Stamps will form the saving habit, without which no man can succeed financially

CALLS THRIFT IMPORTANT.
Head of Arkansas Public Schools Sys- tenn Is Ardent Advocate of w. 6. 6.
 Movement.

J. L. Bond Superintendent of Public Instruction for the State of Arkansas is another one of the educators of that state who has publicly gone on record as endorsing the War Savings Movement
 In letter to S. S. Brother. State Director of Schools for the War Say ings Organization, he said:
 T have had full opportunity to know of the operation and working out of the plan of teaching thrift to the chii- dren of the state through the schools, and 1 wish to add my hearty endorse ment of the movement
 We all recognize that the time ha. come when we must give more atten- tion to the forming of habits of say. ing. The old adage that what is to be put in the life of the next genera tien must be put in the schools of the presen. day is certainly true There. fore, the teaching of thrift in the pub lie schools is vitally important to the children of this generation and sue. ceeding ones
 "l heartily endorse the plan of or ganizing the War Savings Societies in every school room This is putting into practice the theory taught in the school and will make the home and school combine in the work of teach ing and practicing thrift"

RAILROAD EMPLOYES
 BECOME INTERESTED
Missouri Pacific War Savings OrganE zation Establishes Splendid
 Record.

So firmly has the thrift habit be- come established among the employees of the Missouri Pacific Railroad that even those who are unable, because of the nature of their employment to at- tend the meetings are cared for in special order issued by NJ. E. Baile, in charge If the Maintenance and Sup ply Department at Sedalia.
 Superintendent Baile in a bulletin addressed to the employees under his direction pointed out the value of the Thrift Campaign now being conducted by the United States Treasury De- partment and closes his communica- tion as follows:
 For your convenience, stamps are on sale at all times at storekeeper's office, or at postoffice. This is a cash proposition and not handled by the railways as was the Liberty Bonds Buy one now and then, double each pay day It's grand and glorious feeling to know yos have a little bunch of money that you can grab in hurry
 Reports filed with the Director of War Savings for the Eighth Federal Reserve District at St Louis, indicate that the Missouri Pacific employees of the Sedalia Division are making a showinS that compares favorably with that 0. any other railroad War Say ings Society iii the United States.

ALL IN A DAYS WORK.
Missouri Field Organizer BuehIer Has
 a Busy Day at Sedalla.

If anyone thinks that the grass is growing under the feet of the Missouri field workers of the War Loan Organi zation of the Eighth Federal Reserve District he will probably revise his opinion when he learns of P. W Buehler's work one day in the latter part of July.
 In his report to Director of Field Or ganization Dempsey at St. Louis hc told of organizing two War Savingg Societies in the railway shops at Se dalia with pledges of s87 and $94 each
 While he was not busy with his or ganization work he sold on the side S2,000 worth of the new Treasury Say ings Certificates. In addition to thi he did missionary work that will beai fruit in after days.

on airs an "sauced-up' tobaccos for the fellow that likes nut sundaes better than home made pie
 So says friend of ours named Velvet Joe. And he just about hits the nail on the head.
 Velvet is made for men who think there's no smoke like real tobacco. If you are that sort of man. listen:
 Velvet was born in old Kentucky, where more than one good thing comes from. It was raised as carefully as any other Kentucky thoroughbred But the real secret of Velvets friendly qualities is it's slow natural ageng in wooden hogsheads. Ageng in the wood never hurt anything-and least of all, tobacco.

State Fair

Never was there a fair in the west
ern portion of the United States pro-
vided with such a variety of high class
and expensive attractions as will be
seen at the coming Colorado Site
Fair. There are so many that it is
difficult to enumerate them all but
among them will be championship
series of automobile races, and in this
there have been entered already some
half dozen of the most noted speed
kings of this country and Europe, men
who have records for speed ard daring
cqualed by none.
A train is required to carry the out
fit and cars of famous auto-polo troupe
who will perform this exciting and
dangerous game for the entertainment
of fair visitors.
A famous balloon and parachute
artist is another attraction; woman
who has entertained millions of peo-
pie in other countries as well as this.
Then there will be two rival airplane
flicrs, each with secret stunts with
which he will endeavor to outline and
outdare the other.
A great fireworks company will de-
pict both day and evening a reproduc-
ton of the British navy capture of the
Hell Hole of the Huns" the Zee
brugge harbor This will be staged
in front of 30O-foot stage painted
in oil on steel. wood and iron. The
battleships, destroyers, submarines,
the heavy fort artillery, and all real
isms will be shown just as they were
when the Huns were blocked in their
famous retreat. Sights and sounds
terrific will thrill the viewers and
listeners.
Major Hendershott and son, Ameri-
cas- most noted fife and drum men.
with a drum used in the Civil War. will
be another daily attraction, and the
Original Dodge City-Pueblo Cow Boy
Band will furnish the music and show

Grou nd Glass Not Harmful

Experiments recently carried out by
the Army Medical Corps have entirely
disproven the popular belief that
ground glass is harmful to the digest
i've tract.
Glass was ground and sifted to Sc
cure varying degrees of fineness and
considerable quantities OF the material
were Incorporated in fresh meat the
same being fed to hungry dogs. This
was repeated in some instances ON a
number of days after which the dogs
were killed and the digestive tract ex-
amined both with the naked eye and
by the aid of the microscope and no
injury whatever was perceptible. Be
fore being killed the dogs apparently
suffered no inconvenience and appear
ed normal in every way.
These findings should eliminate for
all time the idea of glass being the
cause of death in animals maliciously
poisoned.-W. H. Feldman, Colorado
Agri. College, Fort Collins, Colo.
The publication of the above about
two years ago would have prevented
the country editors having to listen
patiently to many cases of people who
thought they were victims of attempt
ed murder on the part of German spies

TREES FOR THE FARM
HOME IN COLORADO

Recent studies of tree planting on
the unirrigated farms Of eastern Colo
RADIO CLEARLY show that it is readily pos
sible to make the farm homes of these
sections comparatively attractive in a
few years time by such means. No
matter how expensive the buildings
there is always u sense of baroness
and even cheerlessness about any place
that lacks the adornment of thrifty
growing trees. Even weather worn
house of cheap construction, on the
otherhand, may be given u homelike
and attractive quality when shaded and
protected by a suitable planting of
trees and shrlsbs.
Whilc 1t is true that many trees
nave been planted that did not survive,
numerous cases in which success has
been achieved along this line proves
that there is hardly any case in which
trees of some kind cannot be grown.
In many cases the rapid growing
species, such as cottonwood and pop
lar, have been planted but after a few
years these are apt to begin drying
and prove disappointing.
The most attractive and permanent
paintings examined, were those con-
sisting largely of honey locust, black
locust, elm, blackberry and ash. AL
though of slower growth these species
are able to withstand drought better
and the wood of all of them is of
superior quality. Then, too, the plant
ing of mixed species is more attractive
to the eye than where only one kind
is used.-B. o. Longyear, Colo. Agri
College, Fort Collins. Colo.
