Marshall County Red
Cross Ear of Corn Is
in Washington Museum

During the corn picking season late
last fall an ear of calico corn was
picked by Carl A. Miller. on a farm
just north of Lamoille. The ear was
a freak. for on one side of it red kerr
nels had grown in the form of very
good red cross similar to the emblem
of the Red Cross. Mr.. F. c. Let's, OF
Chicago. but now attached to the ma
tional headquarters of the Red Cross
at Washington as director of supplies,
was in the city at the time. The car
was presented to him.
In order that the ear might be pre-
served, Mr.. Let's has turned it over
to the national museum Of the Red
Cross at Washington. Miss Elizabeth
A. McF'adden, in charge of the Red
Cross museum, acknowledged receipt
of the ear of corn and it's history,
which Mr.. Let's sent with it. in the
following letter to Mr.. Let's
'sThe Red Cross ear of corn which
you were good enough to send to the
Red Cross museum has been delivered
to me together with your letter Of de-
scription.
eve are delighted to have this and
feel it will be an extremely Interesting
part Of our exhibit. Please accept my
thanks for not only this most accept
able addition to our collection but also
for your thoughtfulness."

MAYOR REFUSES ISSUANCE or
LICENSES TO DANCE
PROMOTERS.
"sAiNpl6S" HELD TO De
ENTIRELY TOO ROUGH"
Played Game too Strong In Recent
Weeks, Outside Promoters Failing TO
Maintain Orderly Plsoss-lnvitation
Dances Without Licenses No Sub
tsrfues.

The ban has been put on the public
dance In Marshalltown. Mayor j. J.
Wilson issued an order Monday pro-
hibiting further issuance Of licenses
to dance promoters. The cause was
said to be the failure of the promoters
to keep the dance halls orderly and
that In some Instances the dances were
too rough"
As u result of the order the dance
adv ertised for Monday evening at
American hall was not given, the pro-
moter being refused a license. the
promoter, a non resident, has been
very active in the local field recently
and 1t is felt by municipal officers
that the time mas come to put an END
to the visiting dance manager and his
orchestra, VINO have only the receipts
in mind when a dance Ia promoted.
It was said at the city offices that
4 dance given at the American hafi
Saturday night was too strong ana
could not be repeated. There were &C

appeared with the discharge papers,
which will presumably be used in an
endeavor to collect back pay coming
to these boys. or for the purpose of
evidence that the pretended soldier
unlawfully using them is in fact a
former army man.
In Louisville, KY. the want columns
of daily papers were also used to ad-
vertise for soldiers seeking employ
ment. In this case. the soldiers were
required to appear in uniform. w. III.
Riehl, secretary of the vigilance COM
mittee of the Louisville Adertising
Club. having Just received his dis
charge. donned his uniform and ap-
piled. He was told by the employment
agent that they had the ''niftiest" lrtle
graft" ever put over, that a soldier
could sell anything If he did not ask
more than a dollar. end that the en-
ployment agent would furnish Riehl
with a supply of pictures and other
cheap articles costing about 10 cents
each which Riehl was to sell for as
much as he could get, up to a dollar
and they would divide the profits.
After he had ell the details, Riehl
revealed his identity and advised the
agent that he had better beat it out
of town" within an hour. The agent"
still has some time coming to him.
The vigilance committee in a Cali
fornia city estimates that 1t saved the
citizens at least $1,000 by exposing a
similar graft.
From several eastern points come re-
ports Of men in uniform taking sub
scriptions for unknown papers and
magazines with patriotic sounding
names. The subscription price is only
a dollar a year. and the impression is
usually given that the profit from the
publication is used for the benefit of
returned soldiers.
The subscriber receives card as a
receipt and this is to be mailed to the
publisher of the paper. In one instance.
the paper Is purported to be published
in New Jersey but the printed address
on the mailing card is town in Ohio
Many who buy such subscriptions
never mail the cards, says the bulletin
from the associaton-but, it adds
they may be fortunate after all, for
after reviewing one issue Of such a
publication recently, the vigilance
committee believes the subscriber
would better save the time required
to look it over.
This form Of graft is made all the
easier because Of the reports in circu-
letion that SO many returned soldiers
are unable to find work. Sympathetic
citizens are not inclined to hesitate at
handing a dollar to a soldier out of
work, even tho they know that the
article they are purchasing. or the
subscription they are giving, is of little
value Nine times out of ten, says the
bulletin from the committee, they are
helping a CRATER who was Stacker
during the war and one who is either
using purchased uniform and stolen
discharge papers. or. If the man really
is discharged soldier, he is one whom
his fellow soldiers would be the FIRST
to condemn for bringing dishonor upon
them and the uniform they wore by
forwarding a scheme OF "Jobber' who
employs uniformed men for such pur-
poses H..
