Walter Herring left Tuesday
for Higginsville where he has
accepted a position as pharma.
cist for a big drug house of that
city. If he likes his new situa-
tion his family will join him and
they will make that city their
home. Perhaps there was no
more popular business man in
this city than Walter and his
reputation as a first class sales
man was fully established as
well as his ability as a pill mixer.
We feel sure that the entire CON-
munity will wish the jovial and
hospitable new citizen of Hig-
ginsville all the prosperity and
contentment that a hustler and
all round good fellow deserves.

Begin collecting your old wint-
er clothes now, for the campaign
will be held the week of March
"a to March 81.
Every kind of garment is need
ed. Piece goods as well, light
warm canton flannel and other
kinds of cloth from which to
make garments for wee babies.
Ticking, sheeting, and blankets;
woolen goods and shoes of every
size are asked for. Any scrap
leather can be advantageously
used for repairing footwear.
Since the clothes will get the
hardest kind of wear only strong
durable garments should be sent.

no use for ballet slippers or film
sy gowns! Make your gift prac-
tical. Garments, however, need
not be in perfect condition.
Thousands of destitute women
are eager to make a few francs
by repairing and adapting gift
clothing to their needs.
In this campaign the Red Cross

the time when the baled cloth.
ing is delivered to the ships OF
the European Relief Administra-
tion which will transport it tC
Europe. The minimum allot.

10000 tons of clothing and it is
hoped that much more than 10,
OO0 tons will be realized.
The allotment for Charlton
County is 5000 pounds and il
ought to be contributed easily.
Leave contributions at Red
Cross room or post office.

Wearing of the Green
Monday
The Shamrock Green

The Shamrock Green
A shamrock green from the isle
We love,
On the edge of the Irish Sea,
Where the Wicklow Mountains,
keeping guard,
Stand fast, unalterably.
Stand fast as the faith of an
Irishman
That his land by the inland sea
Shall some Gay lind the magic
That shall set his people free.
% shamrock green, an emblem
fair,
Of purpose high, confessed,
Of faith and love and endless
hope,
Of spirit ne'er oppressed.
They may take his lands, they
may bind his hands,
But his high heart never fears,
And the smile of an Irishman is
oft
Gay camoufage for tears.
Then wear the shamrock green
today,
st, Patrick's emblem true,
And vows of faith and love and
hope
For Ireland renew.

Safety Deposit + es.

The Bank of Keytesville has
been torn up from front to back
this week making improvements.
The big new vault door ordered
last May, came a few days ago
and the representative of the
purchaser of the big double
chested safe which has first and
last held millions of cash and the
old vault door came Monday and
began taking his purchases from
the big vault. The safety deposit
boxes or at least part of them
came a short time ago and have
been placed in the vault and can
be had by those wishing a place
fire proof for their private papers
at small rental per annum. The
remainder of the safety deposit
boxes will be on hand soon and
will be installed in the vault.
The exterior of the vault and the
interior of the big banking room
will be touched up and made to
harmonic with the fine vault
door, the big steal burglar proof
safe which rests in a front win
dow and the latest machines for
facilitating work on books.
Cashier Anderson has managed
to conduct the business of the
bank as usual despite the debris,
dust and indirect routes to vari-
GUS departments, but it has been
a task which he hopes to be clear
of in the future. The moderniz.

appreciative. Now for water

We could not get the particu-
lars of the death of Billy Nc
Campbell in time to give them
last week bat from Mr.. A. F.
SempIe we had this information.
Mr.. McCamrbell had sold his
farm property and moved to his
old home in the country about 4
miles southeast of Rothville. Sat-
urday they had moved all the
household goods from town and
piled them up in the big dwelling
expecting to renovate the interi-
or, beginning at the rear, The
work was heavy and the six big
loads that day had proved a SIRE
nuous undertaking for the man
who had hardly recovered from
influenza which followed a long
siege of heart trouble and to
make matters worse for him, his
hired man quit him when most
needed.
While he did not feel at all like
doing any more work that day,
milking had to be done, cattle,
hogs and horses fed and some
other necessary duties about the
place. Billy got the milk bucket
MIXED a cow, fed the hogs and
the last Mrs. McCampbell heard,
he vas calling a bunch of calves
to give them feed. For some
little time she waited for his ap.
pearance at the house and not
coming, she went in search, She
could not find him, She phoned
to a neighbor but he was on his
way to Rothville and another
neighbor, Mr.. A. F. Semple,
about two miles away, was called.
He at once phoned another party
and set out as fast as his riding
horse could go with him to as
sist in solving the mystery. Ar
rived there he and another who
had reached the place a little
ahead of him, searched the prem
ises closely and for some time
could not find him. Informed
that he was last heard calling
the calves, they went to a big
straw rick some distance from
the barn, after going all thru
that building several times, and
seated with one leg under the
other, was the victim of a blood
cIot on the brain. He was be.

Farm Bureau Notes.
By Sam Jordan.
Charlton County Discovered.

We have had so many ques-
tions coming to the office about
Charlton county land, that it has
led US to look the matter up a
bit. We have maintained all
along that Charlton county had
not been discovered, only that
some times we do have some
floods, and the bad always travels
fastest, but if there is any good,
it comes eve ltually tho slow some
times.
We have been trying to tell the
good in Charlton County think
ing the bad does not need to be
told.
We have told, though, that
Charlton county does not have
as much good live stock as it
ought to have. Also, that we do
not grow as many soybeans as
would pay to grow. We do not
feed down as many of cur field
crops as We ought to feed. We
do not grow as much alfalfa as
our land should grow, we burn
too many corn stalks, but we are
coming along very nicely on
these.
We do have a good deal of over
flow land, but a lot of thatis be-
ing drained, and levied so as to
make these places the finest pos
sible farm lands. We also have
an enormous amount of fine Sec
Ond bottom and upIands that are
as good as the sun shines on.
This county has been happy in
its prosperity letting the other
fellow worry, hence this county
has had little advertising except
the pad.
As a result, lands have been
cheaper, when quality and loca-
ton are considered then they
are in counties whose virtues
have been sung for many years.
We have told these good things
and we also told about our
great wheat crop, with a county
average of over 25 bushels per
acre, with our champion yield of
% l-3 bushels per acre of No |
wheat. We have been for years
very sure that the press is the
greatest power, for either good
or i'll as the case may be, on this
whole earth. We believe the
press is the best salesman in the
world, and since we always try
to have at least a little good will
to offer, we find we can get rid
of it best through the press, and
some way the more good will the
press gives away for US the more
we have left to give.
That's fine, too, isn't it?
Its the same way with politi-
ness, yes, and love too, the more
love one bestows, the more one
has left to bestow, and queer
though, we sometimes try to be-
stow some of ours on the wrong
party, but | am wandering now,
so let US get busy discovering
Charlton county and try to prove
it, by figures.
Some investigation shows thai
since year ago now more thar
81, ,000,0 900 worth of land in Cha,
riton County has changed hands,
and is still changing, and we
might say going up asst changes.
Two important meeting were held
since we were last heard from.
One was Short horn breeders
