C. A. STROMBERG
MOLINE RESIDENT
FOR FIFTY YEARS
Especial Moline service)

Fifty years ago today at the c.,
r. I. & P union depot In Moline.
which still stands, Charles A.
Stromberg, now 70 years old, 1903
Seventh avenue, Moline, stepped
from the train.
Today Mr.. Stromberg, who has
since that day lived in the third
ward of the Pillow City, is celebrat-
ing his fiftieth anniversary as q
resident here. In those years the
aged pioneer has seen Moline grow
from a burg where only some fac
tories stood, until today it is a town
of nearly $4,000 population, one of
the greatest Industrial centers of
the Mississippi valley.
Stromberg remembers the story
of July 10, 1869, when he landed
in Moline, as clearly as If he were
going through the day again.
NJ landed in the c., r. l. & P.
union depot" said Mr.. Stromberg.
1T was the only depot in Moline.
1t is still standing at Fourth ave-
nue. and Thirteenth street. The
first man to meet me was Andrew
Bratt. He died Dec. 8, 1917, so he
can't help me celebrate July 10,
1919, the fiftieth anniversary of my
life in Moline.
I'VE took a walk east on Third
avenue, past the John Deere Plow
shop and Mr.. Bratt told me that
John Deere had 800 men at work
in that shop. I remember telling
Mr.. Bratt for two years had read
in the Swedish papers about the
John Deere plows and factories.
Then we went to my brothers
place, Victor, who is now dead, and
got a boarding house"
Mr.. Stromberg was employed in
the shops of John Deere and COM
pany for 35 years. He started as
a pillow filter in October of the
year of his arrival in Moline. He
was made a foreman in 1875 and
held that position until 1904, when
failing health compelled him to re-
tire.

N-54 DOCKS IN
SPENCER PARK
FOR WEEK STAY
Recruiting Ship on Land Cruise
Pauses at Rock Island for
Naval Demonstration.

The good ship N-54 steamed into
this port from Kewanee today, via
the roadway route and pitched
anchor on the lee side of Spencer
Square. Her commander reports a
the entire trip. That was natural
for the four perfectly good wheels
which at once propel and support
the craft are fitted with seryiceable
tires, and her skipper is a land
navigator of the first class.
For let it be known that the crew
Of five who are easing the N-54
along middle western roads are
with us for a purpose. Not only do
they SILVER their timbers, but they
provide Johnny on the spot enlist
ment Office for all who desire to
cast their lot with the best service
on earth-Uncle Sans navy. It is
nothing other than a clever idea
for soliciting recruits to the sea
service.
The crew of the N-54 is as fol-
lows:
Chief Petty onicer Ralph r. Wal
ters, (skipper.)
Jeschke engineer officer.)
Petty Office First Class Arthur
J. Macdonald (medicaI officer.)
Petty Officer Third Class Ray
Heinsen asst. engineer and gun
ner.)
Bugler 1st class, Glen o. Darby
(bugler)
Skipper Walters and his crew of
intrepid sea-dogs will remain in
Rock Island all of next week, and
longer still if the stay that far is
successful. Headquarters during the
day will be in Reservoir Park, and
at any time those who would learn
of what the navy is doing, or what
it has to offer to enlisted men, or
terms of enlistment and rates OF
pay, will be welcome in the cabin
of the N-54. Every evening the ship
will patrol the downtown district,
giving exhibitions of various kinds,
and at this time will operate from
Spencer Square as it's base. Here
recruits or inquiries will also be
welcome.
Special Short Terms.
The ages for enlistment are II to
35 years. All trades are open FOR
enlistment. Pay ranges from $3.50
to $145 per month for first enlist
ment. Every year 100 men are sent
to Annapolis from the ranks. A
feature of the modern service,
which will be explained gladly by
any of the N-54's crew is the spec
ial short-term enlistments for two,
three or four years. Longer terms
of service may likewise be signed
up for.
Just ask any of the tars aboard
the good ship anything you want to
about the service. Twenty-six
young men did in Kewanee-they
thought well of what they heard,
and are now signed up for terms of
naval service. Certainly in these
days of h. c. |. man might do
worse, Just considering the PROPOSE
ton from a selfish and personal
point of view.

RESIDENTS SEEK
BETTER SERVICE
IN NEW DISTRICT
Especial Moline service)


The organization formed by resi-
dents living in the Moline site of
the housing corporation and in ter
ritory surrounding that district
Thursday evening will hold anoth-
er session in the Logan school
house next Thursday evening.
The community organization will
be more fully effected at the meet
ing next week Arthur Hummer is
temporary chairman and Daniel S.
Hanen is acting secretary. Aim of
the organization is to solve prob
lens which confront the people in
the southeast part of the city. Two
of the problems facing those resi-
dents today are:
1. Extension of the Twenty-sev-
enth street car line from Fifteenth
to TWenty-third avenue.
2. Adequate telephone service.
These two questions will receive
first attention, due to the many
complaints of residents declaring
that they do not have adequate
telephone and street car service.
Assistant Manager Sherman of the
United States Housing corporation
was present at Thursdays meeting
and pledged full support to the or
ganization.
Election of officers probably will
be held at the next meeting. Resi-
dents of Moline, outside of this dis
trict, are also eligible to member
ship.
