WILSON HOME LOOTED

The home OF J. #. Wilson was en-.
tered few days ago and everything
ransacked. Two boxes of matches were
setting ON the kitchen table and most
of these had been lighted and then
thrown on the floor In every room In
the house. In the pantry things had
been taken from the shelves and scat.
tered around. In the center of the
floor fire was started from maya
zines and other papers. A trunk had
been opened and great many things
Of Mrs. Wilson's had been added to the
fire. including some jewelry and keep.
sakes which were highly prized by the
family.
Mr.. Wilson went home n little early
and on entering the house smelled
smoke and discovered the fire In the
pantry, the only thing saving the
house from being destroyed was the
fact that the pantry door was closed
and the fire could get no air.
The same day two children, presum-
ably the same ones were caught In the
garage Of Mr.. G. +. Sage on 5. Granite,
with box of matches trying to set
fire to some things in there. They were
discovered just In time by Mrs. Sage
and the matches taken away from
them.
IL would seem that the truant Off
Ger ought to get busy and see why
these children are not In school.

The absence OF radical departures IN
manufacturing and design has made
possible the up-buildlng of the Buick
car as Thoroughly consistent whole

Convenience has been developed side

were being brought into service.
Always, Buick cars have been devel-

GOOD TIME FOR SOLDIER BOYS
WITH SALATION ARMY

The people OF our great country have
somehow accustomed themselves TO the
disappearing OF the Tambourine as n
medium OF contributing money 10 the
nble work of the Salvation Army. The
Home Service Campaign that have
been conducted all over the country
have been wonderfully successful.
The results from this new order Of
things are making themselves felt
now. Officers who under the old sys-
tenn spent half of their time solicit
ing funds are now enabled 10 put all
their time In doing te work for which
they have been trained. The results
are, more people visited and greater
number Of folks helped.
At recent Conference OF Salvation
Army leaders held In Chicago. Illinois,
the fact was brought out that every
where friends are urging the SALIVA
tion Army TO continue the using Of the
"Chrlstmas kettles on the streets OF
the various cities and towns as dis
tinct feature OF the Holiday season.
Many folks who did not contribute OF
the Home Service fund have expressed
their desire TO assist In the work of
the Salvation Army through the fa-
miliar Christmas kettles. Arrange.
ments have been made accordingly,
and before very long the pepole OF
Deming will hear the familiar "Keep

BIG BASE HOSPITAL

PERSONNEL AND PATIENTS DUE
Rumored That Institution Will be at
Full Capacity Some Time in the
Future, But Nothing Definite

According to Major w. A. Korn, NJ.
c., the big base hospital Is now ready
TO receive patients as fast as they are
ordered here. However, none have as
yet arrived and 1t is probable that lit.
tie advance information will be avail.
able until shortly before they begin ar.
irving. Major Korn has had some
trouble In securing help. There has
also been great deal Of detail to at.
tend to In the way of renovating the
buildings, securing supplies and equip,
ment.
SO far only two additional members
Of the staff have arrived, though addi
ti0nal personnel Is known to be under
orders or en- route. So far DIR. II. j
Butzke Of the reserve corps and Miss
Trotsky Of the nursing staff have ar.
rived
There have been rumors to te effect
that other hospitals are to be closed
and tis one run 10 full capacity, which
is about 800 patients, but Maj. Korn
had no information as to that.
Deming Is very fayorably impressed
with the buslness-like methods of Mai
Korn, who Is the present commanding
officer Of the hospital. Everything
that 1t is possible to do to make his
stay here pleasant, and for the rest OF
the personnel and the patients, will
be cheerfully performed by the citi
zens of Deming; this goes without say
ing. Camp Cody was almost a knock
out for Deming, but the hospital will
not 30 overtax local facilities and hos
pitality. Another thing is that IL will
not bring in the grafters and specula
tors. Deming can feel that here is an
institution that il can call its own and
to which II owes its best service and
consideration.
