record of every man who answei'su
the country's call from this city will
be had in complete form. This reg

be of greater Importance as the years

Along with the record of the en-

the Cyco Studio will take the pic

It is to be hoped that all the boys
returning from service will register
at once or before they leave the dis

leave here for other parts of the
country. Register at once and thus
help out in the work of getting a

YOUR PLEDGES.

In signing pledges to take your
fair share of War Savings Stamps
and in signing subscription cards for
your fair share of Liberty Bonds,
you have performed your first duty
to your Government and backed up
your boys cover there"
In signing these pledges and sub
scriptions you have obligated your
self to do certain things; you have
made valid contract. Nothing can
be done that will relieve you of this
obligationu or cancel this contract
except the complete fulflment of it.
We regret to state that some
people have regarded these pledges
and subscriptions lightly. They
have acted as though they felt their
duty was performed when they
pledged or subscribed, and by doing
this initial act, they had squared
themselves with their conscience and
insured their standing in the com
munity.
A campaign is now being carried
on by the War Savings organizations
of the various states to secure the
fulflment of these pledges. 1t is
the duty of every honorable and pat.
| riotic citizen not only to live up tc
his pledge, but to make it his business
to see that his neighbors and friends
do their parts. If every one of YOU
who reads these words will consider
himself committee of one to bring
about the desired results, there viii
be no question but what each of these
states will retain it's position in ths
forefront of the commonwealth who
are financing the Government.
The Liberty Bond subscription
| cards are enforceable contracts be
tween the signer and the banl

It should not be necessary in any case
to institute civil action to enforce
these contracts, but if it is neces
sary banks have the legal ability to
collect from the signer the amount
signed for and undoubtedly they viii

FOUND FROZEN
BY SEARCHERS.
BODY OF MRS. ANDREW ELM is
FOUND THREE MILES FROM
TOWN LATE WEDNESDAY
EVENING.
UNFORTUNATE WOMAN HAD
BECOME DERANGED AND
WANDERED AWAY.

The citizens were considerably
shocked Wednesday morning when
it was learned that Mrs. Andrew
Elm, well known here, was missing
and that although the police and a
posse of men had put in the night be-
fore in thorough search, no trace
of the missing woman was found.
The thermometer that night had
registered Is below zero and as the
missing woman was not clad to with
stand such temperature, the worst
was feared.
Places she was wont to visit were
thoroughly searched by the police
and posse and the pits and places at
and near the mines were combed but
no trace could be found. Wednes-
day afternoon, Capt. w. A. McCurdy
of Company D, called out all mem
bers of the guard that could be
reached, and divided into squads a
thorough search of the city was be-
gun.
Mrs Elm was subject to fits and
had spells of mental arrangement
and it was the opinion that she had
fallen somewhere and dragged her
self away into some clubhouse or
woodpile The guards visited every
house in town and it was five o'clock
that evening when the first clue was
discovered. Every shed, clubhouse,
and any possible place of conceal
ment was looked sinto.
Mr.. and Mrs. Elm had left their
home on Chandler street at about 30
to go to Fortin's store where Mrs. Elm
purchased a dress. AS there were
some alterations to be made in the.
garment, she decided to go home and
get supper while her husband re-
manned to bring home the dress
Mr.. Elm accompanied her out on the:
street and asked her if she could
find the way home. She answered

KEEPING UP RECORD.

An account of the football game
played on Thanksgiving in which
John Gianotti participated, taken
from the ely Paper" published by
the aviation section of the Expe-
dictionary Forces has the following
regarding the game, which clearly
shows that John is keeping up his
record for sport. The ely Paper
says:
"Gianotti and Richert are a pair
of ends that are hard to beat. Both
boys worked like demons in the turk
ey day affair and many nice little
plays of the Nantes bunch were upset
by these boys. Fast, clean sports

on us for job from an employee who
quit to fight for his country. Help
us to help our cripples be as proud of
their sacrifice as we are of them by
making their crippled condition no
economic drag to them"
This>is the gist of request made
to the Federal bureau for the physical
reconstruction of wounded soldiers
from a mining corporation of Min
nesota. The man who wrote the
letter states that he does not now
know whether any of his men will
need reconstruction service. But he
wants to be in position to give jobs
to those men who do.
"Your job awaits YOU"
That is the Peace Year message
Minnesota mining corporations al
most as unit are sending to former
employees now in the service of their
country. Hundreds of the officials
of the various companies listed them
selves in the engineer officers re-
serve and were among the first to
get into active service.
Exclusive of the miners and day
laborers who enlisted or were draft
ed, the Minnesota mines furnished
1 ,595 officers and enlisted men from
their executive Offices and technical
stats for military service. This is
approximately 71z per cent of the
total number of men of all classes
employed in the mines.
The mining companies of Min
nesota not only did not put any OBJ
staeles in the way of their men enter
ing the service, but on the contrary,
during the first year of the war most
of the companies paid half pay to the
men in the service and in the case of
men who went into the officers train
ing camps, paid full pay until they
received their commissions.

MURDER AND
SUICIDE,
JOHN LOBE SHOOTS HIS WIFE
AND THEN KILLS
HIMSELF.

Just as we are preparing to print
this issue of the paper, John Lobe,
aged 40, formerly on the police force.
went to the home of Frank Pucelj
where his wife was visiting this after
noon and after shooting and killing
her instantly, turned the gun on him
self and ended it all.
1t seems that the matrimonial
ventures of the Lobe family have not
been the most conjugal for some
time. Mrs. Lobe, it is claimed, was
afraid of her husband and spent
considerable time away from their
home and seven children. This after
noon the husband and wife visited
Attorney Merdink where some UNI
Outstanding was sought. Mrs. Lobe
then went to the Pucelj home.
The husband also visited the home
where Mrs. Lobe was and after ask
ing her if she was going home and
live with him and receiving the ans
wer that she was not and that she
was afraid he would kill her, he drew
an automatic revolver and fired two
shots at her seated in chair. One
of the shots took effect in her fore
head slightly in front of her left ear
and caused instant death. He then
turned the gun on himself and fired
two shots, the first missing and the
other taking effect under the chin
upwards. He also died instantly.
Mrs. Lobe was about 80 years of
age She was the stepdaughter of
John Markovich and has no relatives
in this city. Surviving are seven
children, the youngest two years of
age and the older twelve. Coroner
Parker and the police department are
in charge of affairs at present. More
details will probably come to light
at the coroner's inquest which will be
held tomorrow. John Lobe is sur
vived by his brother, Joseph. The
family resided in the Zenith Location
and are well known.

and have laid down and let some one
else do the selling. In this con-
nection it is safe to say that in the
trade territory of nearly every small
town, outside competition is doing
more advertising, twice over than the
local merchant. The only way the
country town can successfully meet
this competition is by using the same
tactics. In short the only remedy
for town that is going down hill is
modern merchandising, and scientific
systematic and persistent adver-
Using. This applies to Clarion. The
statement can be proved.
Modern merchandising is science
applied to the buying and selling of
goods. Advertising is the same
thing except that it has to do only
with the selling advertising is
printed salesmanship. It is the
science of psychology applied to
writing news about merchandise.
It is admitted that the country
merchant is handicapped in adyer-
tising, but that should make him all
the keener. His outside competition
has the advantage of expert adver-
Using men to prepare the adver-
tising copy or design the booklet or
catalog that is sent into the country
merchants territory. The business
of one country merchant is too small
for him to have an advertising man
of his own, but his town, as a whole,
is big business enterprise. This
is a situation that needs attention
in many towns and Clarion is in the
list. Clipper, Clarion, Iowa.

HOME GUARDS.

At the drill last week Of Company
D, Minnesota Home Guards, Adju-
tant Gallagher took occasion to cal
the attention of the company to the
fact that while the armistice was
signed, Company D had not been
mustered out and that the men were
still under strict military orders and
subject to arrest for not attending
drill and other attractions of the
military laws. Since the war is
over, many feel that missing drill
and otherwise showing laxity to-
wards the rules viii be overlooked
but the Adjutant and Captain say
that this is not the case and that
strict military rules will govern.

MERCHANTS AND ADVERTISING.

During the past ten years a great
many small towns have been on the
down grade from commercial
standpoint, owing to the inroads
made on their business interests by
the large cities, the mail order
houses, farmers unions and other
forms of outside competition. Many
a country merchant blames the auto
mobile for taking his business away
from him, but it is quite likely the
automobile could be made to bring
trade to him as readily as it is made
to take it elsewhere. The fact is
that the country merchant, like most
of US, viii blame everybody and
