Coles Issues Statement
In announcing the committee Mr..
Coles made this statement:
THE committee is made up Of repre-
sentative men and women from every
section of the city. The suggestions of
names came from many different sources
and every suggestion was given careful
consideration. Many other names were
offered of men and women whose advice
and counsel We would have been glad to
have: but many of them either are out
of the city now or intend to be in n
short time. and it was felt that only
those who could and would give all the
time necessary to the serious obliga tions
to which the committee is pledged should
be placed thereon.
Every man and woman on the com
mittee was selected because 1t was be-
lieved that he or she reflects the real
sentiment of hisor her district, and we
believe that the personnel is of itself
sufficient guarantee of the patriotism
and integrity with which the committee
now will proceed to its business of
studying and ultimately recommending
available candidates for the Offices to be
filed this fall

DISCUSS PLANS TO
BRING FOOD HERE

A called meeting was held last
Thursday evening at which represen-
tatives of Medina's largest employ
ers were present, to discuss Mayor
Dimmock's plan of obtaining a carload
of canned goods from the surplus
which is now being disposed of thru
the war department. Those present
at the conference were Scott Bennett
H. H. Root, r. w. Boyden, Dallas
Warner and Frank Sedgwick.
The question Of a method to be
used in disposing of the goods came
up for consideration and showed q
diversity of opinion, several believing
that the goods could best be handled
thru the grocers, while others helC
that if the exact price of the goods
and the time of arrival be ascertainec
in advance this method would be the
better.
Settlement of the question was
postponed pending reply toa letter
sent the war department in which in
formation was asked for as to wheth
er the contents of the car could b.
specified or whether the town vii
have to accept just what the govern
ment allots it.
Upon receipt Of this information
the committee will meet again ant
formulate more definite plans.

HE WILL PROBABLY BUY
NUMBERS NEXT TIME

c. E. Bailey, Of near Chippewa
Lake, was arraigned Monday before
Justice OF the Peace Ainsworth charg-
ed with operating motor vehicle
with numbers belonging to another
machine.
Bailey, it seems, had confscated a
number from a neighbor's car, each
party using but one number. When
arralgned ne plead guilty and was
tlned $500 and costs, amounting to
$3.50. \
The enormity of the fine was due to
the fact that the statute on this OF
tense prescribes but one amount--$25.
While serving the warrant Deputy
Sheriff Hange discovered a dog also
the property of Bailey, which had a
collar and tag belonging to its pre-
viouS owner.
When advised to procure new tag
for the animal Bailey declared that he
would shoot the dog first, but when
told that tag would be necessary in
either case, he acquiesced and put up
the necessary dollar.

BURNED
BUT WILL RECOVER

John Urban, the nine year old lad
who was severely burned in a gaso-
line explosion near the A. l. Root Co.,
last Thursday evening, has fight
ing chance to recover, providing blood
poisoning doesn't set in. c
Urban and two other lads were
playing near the B. &. O. tracks last
Thursday evening about Z o'clock
when one Of the boys suggested that
John hold lighted match over the
top of gasoline tank car
which stood on siding. Action fol-
lowed the suggestion and the explo-
sion which followed very nearly cost
the Urban lad his life. He was ter
ribly burned about the face, and his
right side, both front and rear was
badly scorched by the flame, as well
as his hair and eyebrows.
The boy ran from the scene Of the
accident to his home with his clothing
still on fire. He was unable to talk
for some time afterwards and it was
feared that he had inhaled the flame.
Later, however, he conversed freely
and gave his version of the accident.
Unless blood poisoning should set
in the doctor in charge Of the case
states that the boy will recover.
Following the explosion the fire
alarm was turned in and the depart
ment responded quickly. Upon its
arrival, however, members found that
the lid Of the car had been closed
which smothered the flame before any
damage was done.

NEW HEATING PLANT
FOR HIGH SCHOOL

Members of the Medina village
school board at their meeting Friday
night decided to 60 ahead and install
a new heating system in the old high
school building. Bonds totalling
$9,400 will be sold next month and
it is planned to sell like amount the

tects, were present and submitted
plans which call for the freproofing of
the cellar, new furnaces, new Chin
ney, new flues and blowers, the work
to conform to the present school code.
Fireproofng of the cellar, the build
ing of a new chimney and the install
lation Of new furnaces will be COM
pleted before fall, while the remand
er of the work will be held over until
after school is dismissed next sum-
mer.
The old heating system is practi-
cally useless, while the fues at pres
ent are on the outside in direct vio-
lation of state health requirements.
Estimates of the total cost Of the
improvements contemplated run be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000.

BAN ONLY PARTIALLY
LIFTED ON TRAVEL

County Clerk L. J. Flickinger has
been advised by the state depart
ment at Washington that while the
ban on transatlantic travel for
American citizens has been lifted,
the lifting was only conditional and
every one who wants to cross the
ocean cannot do it, just yet Per-
sons having legitimate business
abroad, and who can produce proof
of necessity, can obtain passports.
Citizens who seek passports to visit
relatives, aged parents sRhe are III,
persons in distress, ETC., may obtain
them if they can show letters from
the folks abroad supporting their
claims that the contemplated trip is
necessary or advisable. But persons
just planning a sightseeing TOUR of a
vacation must "see America first
Dr. again, If already seen, until such
time as the ban on ocean travel is

ALL SET FOR
cHAUTAUQUA drive
EXCELLENT PROGRAM FOR
THE FULL SEVEN DAYS
Fifty Women Will Formulate Ticket
Selling Campaign Friday
Evening.

The committee in charge have been
busily engaged this week in round
ing Off the rough edges on their plan
to make this Chautauqua which will
be held August 1920 inclusive, the
one best bet of the season.
At a meeting Of the executive COM
mittee held Monday evening it was de-
cided that all the proceeds which may
accrue to the hackers of this enter
tainment, will be turned over to the
committee which was appointed by
the Board Of Trade a year or so ago,
to arrange for the erection of a mon
ument in commemoration of those
Medina county boys who gave their
all in the World War. l.. H. Randall
is chairman of this committee.
The Redpath Co. is guaranteed
$500. Half of the amount above these
hgures 60 to the patrons and it is
hoped that this sum will be large
enough this year to form substan-
tial nucleus for the monument fund.
A meeting has been called for Fri
day evening at 7:30 o'clock in the
Mcdowell block, when campaign of
personal solicitation to aid the sale
of tickets, will be mapped out. 1t is
hoped to have at least fifty women
who will devote their energies to the
sale of tickets.
The tent will be located this year
as in. past seasons, on the school
grounds. Banners and the other adver-
tising features will be put up within
fa week. 1t is probable that a parade
will also be arranged for, just pre-
vious to the event.

been arranged for as Mrs. Norman

CITIZENS MEETING TO
DISCUSS HOME LOOMING

The committee appointed by council
at its last meeting to arrange for a
homecoming celebration in honor Of
Medina county's soldier lads met with
representatives of the Medina Board
of Trade last week and discussed the
matter from various angles.
The concensus of opinion among
business men and citizens in general
is that some sort of a celebration
should be held, but the method of
starting it is open to question.
Members Of the board of trade feel
that the movement should have the
backing of the entire town, and sup
port from outlying districts will be
appreciated. 1t is the purpose at
present to make the day-the tenta-
tive date Of which has been set for
Labor day-a holiday and close the
town up tight, with the exceptions of
restaurants, and clubrooms, etc.
Dallas Warner, who is chairman of
the committee appointed by council,
stated Wednesday evening that he
would issue a call for citizens meet
ing to be held early next week, when
more definite plans will be arranged
for.
