Member of 16Sth Regiment Has Been
Made Good After Being Shot to

BODY PENETRATED EY
PIECE OF SHRAPNEL
Passed Entirely Thru Body, Cutting

Remarkable Work of Army
and Navy Surgeons Puts
Him N Condition For
Long and Useful
Life

Council Bluffs: Private Clarence L..
Johnson, member of Company l.,
16Sth infantry, now at home on a
ifurlough, is regarded with amaze
ment by friends an surgeons when
acquainted with tue extent aud NJ
ture Of the injuries he sustained in
the battle on the Ourcq river. but he
says the fact that he is alive and We'll
on The road to- complete recovery to-
day is due to the wonderful skill of
the army and navy surgeons and to
, the care which he received.
Clarence was hit in the right side
! by shell, one of the exploding kind
which the Huns used. The shell cut
, thru his intestines, cut off a piece Of
his liver and striking the backbone
exploded and tore another hole in his
, side and back where the she'll passed
out, or the greater part of it did, the
rest being extracted by the surgeons.
The wounded lad--he is now but
p years of age-had already passed
thru experiences that tloOred many
others, having been for seventy-two
hours without water, twelve hours of
which time he laid more than half
submerged in a running stream the
water of which he dared not drink
because it was poisoned yet the sight
of which nearly drove him crazy.
Laid in Open Ten Hours.
For more than ten hours young
Johnson laid in the open field after
being wounded, gradually losing
strength from the gaping wound in
his side and back. Stretcher bearers
were unable, because of the terrific
sheNing of the enemy, to remove him.
Clarence says that that night when
he was finally taken to field hos
.pital, his first treatment was by a
naval surgeon, one Of the most skill
ed men engaged in the war. Later he
was operated upon several times by.
surgeons in the base hospitals and
after many weeks he was brought to,
Cape May, N. j., upon a stretcher
and there was given further expert
treatment. Meantime as result Of
the injury to his spine his right leg
was paralyzed. Now he is able, with
the aid of a cane, to get about finely.
He is to return to the hospital at
Cape May early in February and is
confident that in time he will re
cover the full use of his leg. Since re-
turning home young Johnson has
submitted to examination by local
doctors and surgeons and all agree
that the lads recovery is. another

tribute to the wonderful skill of the
army and navy surgeons and to the
army hospitals.
Clarence takes occasion to render
tribute to the Red Cross. He says in
France and everywhere since he was
wounded some of the members have
been at his side and that when he was
granted a furlough from Cape May
they purchased his transportation
and even made reservations in the
dining cars for him enroute home.
He is now the picture of health and
until he starts to walk does not dis
close the fact that he is wounded.

SERVE success. Let us illus
trate.
Recently an old man i'll a
Western town died and i'll the
last hours of his semiconsclous-
ness he kept repeating IN
TEREST, INTEREST, IN
TEREST. He owned houses
and bonds and mortgages i'll
abundance. But he was hated
by his neighbors and despised
by his debtors. He died with
out a friend or mourner. Even
his relatives we're glad he was
gone so they could get his
money. This man, since early
youth. had been DETERMINED
TO SUCCEED.
That same town has in it
another man who has more of
the wealth of this earth than
he can possibly use. He owns
big mill that is operated by
men and women who sing at
their work; who are well fed
and we'll clothed: who are glad
to see the BOSS drive home in
his automobile.
Employees, neighbors and
friends by the hundreds are
glad OF Williams success be-
cause he DESERVES TO sue
CEED.
Yes. there is quite differ
ence between the two methods: :
the difference between greed
and generosity; hate and love;
friends and enemies; selfish
ness and unselhshness.
We ardently hope that in our
growth and development we
may EVER offer merchandise
and service; and SO treat our
fellow workers that we WILL
DESERVE TO SUCCEED.

SIMPLE NAME IS
SUGGESTED FOR
!. wayne LEGION

Owen Scancy, Of Fountain City, sug-
gests that the local post, American
legion, be known simply as Wayne
American Legion" or Wayne County
Legion"
Every man. woman and child" says
Scancy, knows and rejoices at the
bravery, the patriotism, the gallantry,
the knighthood and the loyalty OF the
American soldiers, sailors and mar
ines. They don't like to be showered
with names that they associate with
royalty. These simple words will
bring the same thought of greatness
and of simplicity"
Conquerors Of Prussianfsm.
'Wayne's Conquerors of Prussian-
ISM" is the suggestion made for the
local post by Mrs. V. e. Miller, New
Paris, Ohio. 81 suggest this name be-
cause they helped conquer Prussian-
ism and made the world safe for de-
mocracy," says Mrs. Miller.
Mrs. S. T. Voorhees,, 2O18 Main
street, suggests for the past the name
of Wayne's Renowned Winners" en-
bodying the initials of William Rooney
who offers the prize for the best
name.
Mrs. E. w Doddridge, Of Browns.
vile. suggests the name of Wayne
Permanent Peace Winners" because
they fought for lasting peace.

Earlham Favored by Young
Friends For 1920 Meeting
Was Ideal, Their Opinion

Despite invitations from Penn Col
lege, Oskaloosa, Iowa, for the 1920
Young Friends conference extended to
the Young Friends at Earlham last
week, sentiment favored Earlham.
No decision will be reached until the
executive board of Young Friends
meets next January.
Delegates said Earlham had been
ideal in a vast number of respects,
and aside from the lack of lake or
large river for swimming and boating,
offered nearly all the qualities for a
summer outing. Health conditions at
Earlham were admirable.
Final summing up of the finances
of the conference show that 31S per
sons were enrolled for the ten days
and that a large number of tran
scients from Richmond and other near
by towns attended sessions of the
conference. The treasury will break
even, it was said Tuesday
One hundred and sixteen meetings
and eighteen Yearly Meetings were
represented at the conference. while
five countries including England and
Canada, Cuba. Japan, Jamaica, and
Mexico were also represented.

C, g. 0, WORKERS
ARE STILL OUT; NO
FREICHTS RUNNING

Members of the Railway Workers
union. employed at the c. & O. rail
road shops at Boston, are still idle,
pending settlement of differences with
the officials Of the company and the
union heads.
The employees of the Boston shops,
numb ering between rs and 80 men,
walked out at $3.50 o'clock Saturday
night, and up to noon Tuesday had
not returned to work.
An employe of the Boston shops said
Tuesday that as yet no orders had
been received here for the men to re-
turn to work, and that the strike
would continue until a settlement OF
wages was made.
The union men are asking for an
increase of from 68 to IS cents an
hour, with time and half for overtime
The employees also ask for the pay
ment of back time since January l.
1919, with overtime pay since Janu
airy 2.
All Workers Are Out
According to information received
here, shop workers are out all along
the C. & o. road, including the shops
at Peru, which are the largest on the
line. Workmen are also idle at the
L. E. &, w. shops at Wa bash, Indiana
There have been no local freights or
the G. &, o. since the strike was de
clared Saturday night. and only one
through freight train has passed
through Richmond since that time.
Passenger trains are still running
but employees decla AIRED that this ser
vice would have to stop as soon al
the engines now in use on passenger
trains need OVerhauling, which will bt
very shortly.
Employees Of the Pennsylvania shop:
were still at work Tuesday afternoon
and as far as could be learned, hae
not received orders to stop work

IMEAT BOYCOTT
IS PLANNED AS
H. c. |. WEAPON
Would Have to be National in
, Scope, Declares Ohio At
torney General.

COLUMBUS, O.. Aug. 5.-Perhaps
the solution Of meat prices will be
found in a limited boycott on meat
and meat products, according to At
toxney- General John G. Price. This
method Of treatment would have to
be national in scope and directed from
a central point, he said.
Our Investigations now are under
way. We shall find whether the prices
are held up through natural causes or
by understandings and agreements in
violation OF the law.
III the prices are the result of COM
binattons we can break them up If evi-
dence can be gathered. Several rene
dies are afforded.
May Revise Conservation.
IF they are due to natural causes,
then a revival Of wartime conserva-
ton would appear to be the only
remedy.
But II the entire country should re-
frain for time from eating meat I
believe that the prices would tumble
without further regulation. The same
principle might be applied to other
commodities upon which ecesstve
prices now are charged.
THE club in the hands Of the public
might do more than all that the of:
f1c1als could do. The further plans
along this line must wait for the re-
suits of the inquiries now in pro-
gress."
Unlock Storages.
A third alternative, in the judgment
of the Attorney-General, will be ap-
proprtate action to cause all those who
have stored food for speculation to
disgorge. throwing it on the market
and letting the law of supply and de,
mand regulate the prices.
There is no national emergency
against which food must be stored"
Price explained. The Federal Govern.
ment Is setting the example and there
Is no reason why others should not
follow. The food storehouses must be
unlocked and the food brought out and
sold. When the food is available the
artificial prices will disappear"
The Attorney-General is keeping in
close touch with the SO Prosecuting
Attorneys and seeking to emphasize
the point that storing Of large quaint.
ties Of food at this time is wholly be-
yond all necessity. If the force OF
public opinion could not unlock the
warehouses, he added, other means
should be devised by the public. This
has been done in European countries
and the methods have not been of the
Sentlest.
