PILOT PLANT PUTS
ON NIGHT FORCE

The Pilot Motor car company will
begin on Monday night to use a night
force which will be put on three nights
each week, Monday, Wednesday and
Friday.
This extra force has been necessitat-
ed by the large orders for cars.
George Seidel, president Of the com.
pany, said Monday that there is a
great demand for cars all over the
country. There is no apparent reason
for this, said Mr.. Seidel, except that
during the war many automobile fac
tories were working on munitions and
other war necessities and the manufac-
ture of cars was not normal. Sud
denly there has come a great rush
and many factories are not yet back
to normal production.
Mr.. Seidel said that the night force
will be continued until the company
gets caught up with its work.

City's Oldest Odd Fellcw Recalls
Corn Field on Westcott Hotel Site

remember one day a woman and
walked from Centerville to Richmond
because it was such bumpy and diff
cult riding in the stage.
"Oh. yes, stage coaches were all the
vogue and the price of an omnibus
ride to Cincinnati by way OF Boston
was fifty cents. That was on account
of strong stage coach competition. The
stage coach ran through Eaton and
on down to Cincinnati.
Flour at ST Per 100
"The first flour l bought in Rich.
mond cost me 81 hundred pounds,
smiled Mr. Bells. But, OF course,
everything was low priced. A woman
was well dressed in those days when
she had calico dress. But now"
Mr. Bells was first employed, after
leaving the tailoring business few
years following his arrival in Rich.
mond, as bookkeeper and Office man
ager at the Forkner, Scott & Elmer
Wholesale Grocery company. The
building occupied by this company
stood where the Arlington hotel now
stands.
Later Mr. Bells went over to the
l. R. Howard whole sale grocery, where
he even yet occasionally helps out. .
He has been lifelong and devout
member of the Friends church, and
is the oldest Odd Fellow in Rich
mond.

RED CROSS STILL HAS
MUCH WORK TO DO

Refugee garment sewing and home
service department work are the
main interests of Richmond chapter
OF the American Red Cross this spring
1t is altogether probable that these
two interests will continue for several
months, according to officials. Secre-
tary of War Baker has said that all
the American Expeditionary Force
men can not get back before October,
and after that there still will be a
great deal of work facing the home
service department for wounded, gas
sed, tubercular and unemployed men
must all come in for their share of
help IL they do not get home until a
year from next October, Miss Flora
Mae Green explained today.
Provision for the returning service
men in getting them reinstated as
civilians, assistance for families of
men who have not yet returned, and
routine details is the work now cal
ling the attention of the home service
department; while the refugee gar
ment work which has been taken up
speedily by organizations OF the
county is occupying the hands of
many Richmond and county women.
1.-THE person who has an idea that
the career of the Red Cross is about
finished has another and bigger
thought coming to him." said a Red
Cross worker today. Most emphat
ically, the Red Cross has not closed
it's doors, nor is it lowering in a
shadow of that prospect"

RICHMOND EXCLUDED
FROM STATE DEBATE

Richmond High school has been ex-
cluded from the state High school dis
cussion contest, according to word re-
ceived by High school authorities this
morning William Haberkern, repre-
sentative of Wayne county for the dis
trict contest, was not informed that
the district contest would be held in
the afternoon on Friday, April IL, and
did not arrive at Fortville, Ind, the
place of the contest until o'clock that
afternoon. Fern Copeland of Corners
vile was the winner and therefore
would be the representative at the
state contest from the sixth district.
An objection was registered by
Shannon Neff, head of the debating
department of the High school with
the authorities at Bloomington. A let
ter was received this morning by B.
w. Kelly, principal of the High school,
from Mrs. Bittner, in charge at Bloom
ington. The letter stated that she
had put the matter up to Connersville,
the home of the winner of the district
contest as to whether Haberkern
should enter the state contest with
Miss Copeland or have a contest with
her before the state contest on April
-
not consider Richmond at all, but that
it did not wish the matter to be set
tied by Connersville, but by the state
authorities. Mrs. Bittner then asked
that Richmond say. whether or not
Haberkern would enter with Miss
Copeland from the sixth district. Rich
mond did not wish to make the de-
cision and the matter was left to the
state authorities, who decided that
Richmond should be excluded from
the state contest.
Principal Kelly said Tuesday morn
ing that he thought Richmond should
drop from the contests for year or
two. Benjamin Null, who had charge
of the debating department in the
Richmond High school last year, felt
that Richmond was not treated fairly
then, and Richmond authorities feel
that Richmond has been treated IN
fairly this year.
No date has been set for Fl. Wayne
debate; in fact it is probable there
will be no debate, Mr.. Neff said Tues
day. The calendar for the remainder
of the school year is full and no date
can be set that would be convenient
for Fl Wayne and Richmond both.
