BUYERS PREDICT FIFTEEN
DOLLAR HAY SOON
Large Amount Held BY Government
One Reason for Decline.

Hay buyers are predicting that
within a month hay will sell at SIS
ton. The present price is quoted
around $35 according to the quality.
Reasons advanced for the expected
cut are the fact that the government
has an immense quantity of old hay
purchased last year which it will be
forced to throw upon the market, to-
gether with an unusual crop this year
in Canada. -.
Buyers state that the maximum
price which win be offered next month
will be around $25 delivered. This
means that when the freight is paid
to market and the middleman gets his
commission that about ten dollars of
this amount will have have been ac-
counted for, leaving the farmer in the
neighborhood of SIS per ton.
This announcement comes at the
same time retailers in the grocery
business advise consumers that raise
is eminent in all grades Of soap. The
small cake of Ivory soap is scheduled
to retail for 10 cents per cake in the
near future. Coffee is another COM
modify which is due for another
boost.
The sugar shortage is this section
has been relieved somewhat in the
past week, and dealers state that by
next month a full supply will again be
on the market.

URGE QUICK ACTION
UNDER HUGHES ACT

= Each county seat in Ohio will be
the scene, in August, of a meeting of
mayors and township trustees chair
men to elect a preliminary organiza-
tion under the Hughes health district
act, it request of the State Depart
ment of Health in a letter now in the
hands of these local officials is COM
piled with.
This meeting, at which the mayors
and township chairmen will organize
themselves into a district advisory
council and will choose district
board of health for the county, can
not be held before August 10, the date
on which the Hughes Act becomes eff
fective. State health officials are urg-
ing immediate action after that date,
however, to prevent delays which may
leave the county without any health
protection after January l, 1920, when
the present municipal and township
health departments pass out of exis-
tence.
Such a result, it is pointed out
might be extremely serious if next
winter should be marked by a disease
outbreak even approximating that ot
last winter. =
Much additional organization worA
must be done by the district board o1

TAX COLLECTION
CLOSED MONDAY

County Treasurer Chas. Frank on
Monday closed the books to collection
of taxes due for the last six months
of 1918.
Following the months grace al
lowed by commissioners the county
treasurer kept the books open until
the Goth, but as this date fell on Sum
day, an extra day Of grace was al
lowed. Much money was collected in
on the last day.
The number of delinquents this
year will run higher than usual, ac-
cording to Mr.. Frank, who gives as a
reason that notwithstanding the un-
usual prosperity of the farmer class
during the past year or two, they
have been continually called upon for
contributions to this or that fund un-
til their available supply of cash has
dwindled.
1t was stated at the Office of the
treasurer that a full report of the
moneys received, ETC., would be avail
able for publication next week.

A MILLION DOLLARS
SPENCER COMPANY HAS
PUT VILLAGE ON THE MAP
viii Manufacture Toys of all De-
scriptions. Declare 20 Per
& Cent Dividend.

Not content with the record made
in the last five Liberty Loan cam
paigns the town of Spencer has once
more come into the limelight, this
time. with million dollar enterprise
which bids fair to put that section
second to none in the county, for at a
meeting Of the stockholders of the
Spencer Metal Products Co., held or
Monday the board of directors was
authorized to increase the capital
stock OF the company to one million
dollars.
This will be divided into equal parts
OF common and preferred stock, the
preferred bearing $50 guaranteed div
idends. Announcement was also made
at the same time that the company
would pay a 20 per cent dividend to
the present stockholders.
The Spencer Metal Products Co.
has completed plans to commence the
manufacture Of metal toys, designs
for which have been perfected. This
is q particularly opportune time for
an enterprise of this kind as the man
ufacture Of. toys in this county has
never been fully developed. In years
past the largest manufacturers have
been abroad, imports from Germany
alone amounting to over nine million
dollars annually previous to the world
war.
There is every indication that the
Spencer company has very promis-
ing future before it, as it has an en-
viable reputation for past accom-
plishments. The present line of auto
mobile parts and accessories will be
continued and enlarged and the repu-
tation which the company's products
have acquired, will be maintained
The firm now numbers among its Gus
TONERS, the largest hardware and au-
tonobile supply wholesale houses in
this country and Canada, all of whom
consider Spencer products as a stand
ard of quality.
The Sentinel feels paMicular in
terest in the expansion as this paper
predicted successful future. for the
company Wnen organized, about three
years ago.
successes of this corporation
are largely attributable to the ablt
management Of Mr.. G. G. Bouthinor
and Mr.. Geo. E. Roberts, who have
had the strong support of the boarc
Of directors, consisting of Mr.. G. F
Fenstemaker, president; Mr.. J. B
Firestone, treasurer; and Mr.. C. E
Bement, secretary, the other directors
being Mr.. N. J. Walters, Mr.. vii
Auble and Mr.. ]. A. Browand.
An enterprise Of this kind and siz'
means much to community lik,
Spencer as the developments in thu
village are bound to keep step will
the growth of the industry.
We wish both the company and tn,
village the best of success.

MEDINA Ar CAR
LOAD CAM GOODS
A SWAT AT THE
HIGH COZ LIVING
Mayor Will Appoint mmittee
to Distribute Goods at
Cost.

An announcement of more than
usual interest-at least to those who
have been spending much of their
leisure time lately figuring out how
TO make their pay envelope reach all
the way around was made on We'd
nesday Of this week, when word was
received from the war department
that Medina can obtain a car load of
canned goods from the reserve gov-
ernment stock at Chicago.
The offer came as the result Of
foresight shown by Mayor Dimmock,
who several weeks ago, got in touch
with the department which is dispos-
ing OF the huge supply of goods left
on the governments hands when peace
was declared. The mayor on his o wn
initiative, took the II. G. L. bull by the
horns, SO as to speak, and after much
correspondence, was rewarded We'd
nesday by the receipt of letter
which briefly stated that Medina vii
lage was in line for carload Of
goods, if the desire for them still ex-
listed.
The goods consist of canned meats
Of all kinds, canned beans and other
kinds of canned vegetables. The gov
ernnent price is from is to 40 per
cent lower than charged by retailers.
The plan to be evolved here has to do
with selling limited number to each
purchaser for cash at cost plus the ac-
tual expense incurred in handling.
The mayor has called upon several
representative employers Of the vii
lage and they were to meet last even
ing to make arrangemnts for the ad-
vance payment for the goods, the sell
ing methods to be used and other de-
tails connected with the distribution.
Those who have studied the propo-
sition are confident that an immense
saving can be made and that the SELL
ing period would require no more than
q day.

IT CERTAINLY WAS
SOME TURN OUT
ADULT BIBLE CLASS
SHOWING A SURPRISE
But FOrerunner to the Times That
Are Booked at State
Conference Meet.

A crowd, sufficiently large to salts
fly even the most enthusiastic worker,
was on hand in Medina Monday even
ing when the parade of the various
Adult Bible classes of the different
denominations passed around the park
in review. To say that the turnout
exceeded expectations is putting it
mildly, as conservative estimates
place the number in line at about
1000. The march was made in. COL
umns Of fours and reached exactly
half way around the park.
Headed by Mayor Dimmock, on a
beautiful cream colored horse, follow
ed by the band, the parade started at
the southwest corner of the square.
First in line behind the band was
the different classes of the M. E. Sun
day school. The procession moved
east and at the library corner was
joined by the classes of the Christian
church. Proceeding north on the east
side of the square the numbers were
augmented by the Congregational
Sunday school classes, and at the next
corner the number was again swelled
by the various adult classes from the
Baptist church. Directly following
these were classes from all parts Of
the county, Seville, Poe, River Styx,
Granger, Hinckley, Hinckley Ridge,
Brunswick, Beebetown, York, Chat
ham, Lafayette and Chippewa Lake
being some Of the larger outside dele
cations in line.
After encircling the park twice the
procession moved to the Methodist
church where large number were un-
able to obtain admission owing to lack
of seating capacity.
Here L. B. Edgar, state superin-
tendent of Adult Bible classes, ad-
dressed the gathering. His talk dwelt
largely on the work of the Sunday
school organizations. w. H. Courtney,
Of Lodi. was also scheduled for an ad-
dress, but failed to put in appearance.
A. I. Root substituted and delivered a
very interesting address on the recent
peace. DR.. G. H. Smith, county presi-
dent of the Adult Bible classes pre-
sided at the meeting and introduced
the speakers.
! The silk flag offered by the A. I.
Root Co., to the Sunday school class
having the largest percentage Of it's
members in line was awarded to Mrs.
Harry Clark's class of the Congrega-
tional church, which was 100 per
cent unit, the entire % members be-
ing in line. Other classes also had
excellent records a few having as
high as SO or 60 in the line of march
out of possible representation Of 65.
This gathering of Adult Bible
classes Of the county was but fore
runner of the crowds expected at a
meeting Of the state federation which
will be held here this coming fall,
when it is expected about 400 dele
gates from all over the state will be
in attendance. :.
Miss Graham, of Columbus, state
organizer, will spend three weeks in
Medina previous to this meeting, the
date of which has not been decided.
Besides being favored with the
state federation meeting Medina coun-
ty has the unique distinction of being
the only county in the state which
has county organization of Adult BIZ
BILE classes.

GUN ToTER NOT FOUND

Steef Gruich. one Of the seven men
arrested several weeks ago for moon
shine operations in this vicinity, and
for whom a warrant charging him
with carrying concealed weapons was
issued last week, has not been ap-
pretended.
When first arrested Gruich was car
rying a huge pistol. He was turned
over to the federal authorities who
took him to Cleveland for a hearing,
following which Gruich and three
others were released.
Last week the prosecuting attorney
swore out a warrant charging him
with carrying concealed weapons, but
the mans present whereabouts cannot
be located. I. n 4.

STREET COMMISSIONER
is THE GOAT

The recent agitation brought up in
council pertaining to the refusal Of
several residents to lay walks as or
dered has developed nothing during
the past week. Joe Ault, who it was
reported, had openly defied council to
force him to comply with their order,
is still in possession of the village
fathers nanny. Proper notice has
been served, according to the solicitor,
and all that remains to be done is
to 60 ahead and build the walk and
charge it up to the owner. The rub
comes in however, where the ordi-
nance specifies that the work shall be
done by the street commissioner. The
latter official can hardly be expected
to go ahead and do the work per-
sonally, SO nothing has been done.
The old saying that "what is every
body's business is nobody's business
certainly applies in this case.

COUNTY POSTMASTERS
GET REAPPOINTMENTs

Dispatches from Washington this
week conveyed the news that three
Medina county postmasters were
among a list of seventy who were ap-
pointed by President Wilson last Fri
day. The appointees in this county are
Mary X. Long, for Medina, w. A. Ault
of Wadsworth. and Fred Taylor, Of
Seville. All three are reappointments,
as the first terms in each case had
been started previous to the presi-
DENTAL order placing all postmasters
under civil service.
No official notice of the above ae-
ton has ben received yet, and it is
said that commissions now fead for
four years despite the order placing
them under civil service.
