High Honors
LEWIS BUss FIRST ON WHEAT
Charles Powell, Walter Weiss and
MorelIe Houlihan Win Silver
Cup on Oats

I, At the stock and grain Judging con-
test held at Ames on Monday and
Tuesday of this week Denison and
Crawford county carried away the
high honors. For Denison Professor
Stanfield had selected Charles Pow
ell Walter Weiss and Morelle Houli-
han, with Lewis Finnegan as alter
nate, to represent Denison from the
agricultural department of the school.
These contentants were awarded first
place in the judging of oats and re-
ceived silver cup. AS we go to press
the awards for the stock judging had
not been made known. For Dow City,
Lewis Buss, son of Fred Buss, was
awarded first prize on wheat and the
Dow City contestants were awarded
a silver cup on barley judging,
The result of the contest speaks
very highly for Crawford county, her
students and the professors who have
had charge of the students. The con-
test was state affair, and the fact
that Crawford was awrded the best
prizes is record to be proud Of.

MAKING PLANS
FOR LAST DRIVE
County chairan M. e. Jones and n. c.
Finnern, Chairman Publicity Com.
mistee, Attend Chicago Meeting
BONDS At A HIGHER INTEREST
Same Township Workers Will Have
Charge Of Coming Campaign-At.
tractive Features About Loan

M. E. Jones, county chairman of the
Liberty loan committee, and H. C.
Finnern, chairman of the publicity
committee. were in Chicago Friday
attending the meeting of the Liberty
loan workers of the seventh federal
reserve district The meeting was
largely attended and plans were for.
mulated for the campaign to be
launched April 21st and which will
continue for three weeks.
In an interview with a Review re-
porter yesterday Mr.. Jones stated
that practically the same plan used
in former bond drives will be used
again. Secretary of the Treasury
Glass was in attendance at the meet
ing. He stated that the issue would
be for five billion or more dollars and
ably be higher than that of the last
issue The taxation features of this
bond will be attractive to purchasers
and the fact that the bonds are to be
taken up in five years will make them
attractive. Secretary Glass stated
that this would be the last bond drive
put on by the government and is to
take care of the expenses of demobili-
cation
Mr.. Jones and George McHenry are
already formulating plans for the
drive in Crawford county. The same
township workers will have charge of
the campaign that have helped to put
the former drives over in Crawford
county They expect to devote one
day for the drive and if possible take
care of the county's entire quota on
that day. Our quota for this drive
will be somewhat smaller than that
of the last drive.
Every loyal and patriotic citizen in
the county can be depended upon to
do his duty in this drive. Crawford
county has made an enviable record
in every undertaking during the war
and it is not expected that we will fall
down in this the last war drive,

MAKES WAR ON RATS
Mrs. Leonard johnson Has Method by
Which She Is DISCRIMINATING Rats
.....- in Large Numbers

Those Of our people who are both
cred with rat pests may profit by the
experience of Mrs. Leonard Johnson,
who lives just west of the court house.
During the past winter the barn on
their place has been overrun with
rats of all sizes and ages. The ro-
dents have eaten enough feed to keep
dozens of chickens all the year, and
the Johnsons have spent considerable
money in buying rat poison, only to
see the number of pests increase. Mrs.
Johnson finally solved the problem
by taking an ordinary milk can, of
five gallon capacity, and sinking it in
the ground so that about half of the
can was exposed. She then placed
some boards or runway up to the
can and filled the can half full Of wa
ter and scattered attractive food upon
the water. The rats, anxious for the
food, would climb upon the runway
and jump into the can, only to be
drowned in the water. The first eight
nights Mrs: Johnson took 80 rats from
the can, and in one night caught 10.

CITY ENCOUNTERS
DOUBLE TROUBLE
Motor Used to Run the Big Pump
With Which Water From Deep
Well Is Taken Burns Out
RESERVE MOTOR FOLLOWS SUIT
City Without Water for Two Days
While Repairs Are Being Made
Will Install Reserve Power

The city council has been having
it's share of trouble the past few days
and the city has been without water
since Sunday. The big motor that
runs the pump with which water is
taken from the deep well, burned out
last Friday and all efforts to replace
or repair it have been in vain The city
has a reserve pumping outfit from
which they pump water from the shall
low wells, and on Friday afternoon
this was started working, while Mr..
Binkley, the superintendent, rushed to
Omaha in search of new motor for
the big pump. For some reason, how
ever, the coils In this smaller motor
burned out and left the city power
less as far as the two motors were
concerned.
After all efforts to locate motor
had failed experts were brought up
from Omaha to rewind the smaller mo-
tor, but after an all nights siege on
Monday, the job was found to be i'm
possible. Late Tuesday a line shaft
had been built and the motor that
runs the condenser connected with
the deep we'll pump and about four
inches Of water were pumped, when
the betting and wooden pulley went
to pieces In the meantime a new
belt and pulleyi had been ordered from
Omaha and arrived this morning. BY
this means it is expected to pump the
water until the large motor, which has
been expressed to Omaha, is repaired
and returned. 1t will take about three
days to repair this motor.
Mr.. Binkley and his force have been
working night and day, doing all in
their power to relieve the situation,
and the crew had no rest or sleep from
Saturday until Tuesday night when
they had to quit and get rest In the
meantime our citizens, for the most
part, have been patient and have put
up with the inconvenience unavoid-
ably made.
We understand that steps will at
once be taken to install double sys-
tenn at the pumping station so that a
reserve power will be available at all
times. This will cause some extra
expense, but the business interests
Of the city must be protected, and an
experience such as has just been en-
countered eliminated.
A motor was secured at Lincoln,
Neb, this afternoon and will be ship
ped out by express this evening. and
tomorrow there ought to be sufficient

SCHOOL BOARD
SELECT TEACHERS
Board Holds Meeting Monday Eve.
/ ming and Selects Teachers for
the Ensuing Year
RAISE IN SALARIES GRANTED
Some Vacancies Still Remain but Will
BE Filled Before the September
Term of School Opens

The school board held a meeting
on Monday evening of this week, at
which time they elected teachers for
the coming school year. Most of the
teachers now employed applied for
reelection and the board acted favor
ably upon all of these applications.
Many of the teachers asked for sub
stantial increases in salary and these
were granted by the board. There
are still several vacancies for the
coming year but the board believes
that these will be filled before the
opening Of school in September.
Denison is indeed fortunate in Sc
curing competent teachers for its
public schools which is accounted for
in the fact that the board pays good
salaries. Surrounding cities and towns
report a scarcity of competent teach
ers and in some cases school work
has been hampered on account of not
being able to secure teachers at all
Here in Crawford county, several of
the rural schools have been closed for
several months owing to the fact that
teachers are not available.
The teachers elected by the board
on Monday evening are as follows: G.
E. Humphrey, superintendent of
schools; Miss Fanny Hayes, English;
Miss Himena Hoffman, normal train
ing and history; Miss Leona Mclean,
commercial; w. w. Stanfield, agricul-
ture; Miss Geraldine Rendleman,
mathematics; Miss Helen Wright,
girls athletics and physical training;
Charles Helsley, boys athletics and
physical training; Miss Anna Hart
domestic science; Miss Anna Solin-
ger, English: Miss Flora Waterbury,
chemistry and mathematics; Miss
Winifred Wright, music; Miss Selma
Knoche, English; Miss Augusta. Lam
genbuch, Office secretary.
The grade teachers elected were:
Miss Mabel PAUL, grade supervisor;
Miss Nellie Hoffman, school nurse;
Miss Lillian Olson, Miss Helga Lar
son, Miss Mabel Kelly! Miss Emma
Nielsen, Miss Jenna Strahan, Miss
Marion Johnson, Miss Edith Jacob
sen, Miss Susie Craft, Miss Harriet

CLOCKS TURNED
AHEAD one HOUR
Last Sunday in March, at,2 O'Clock
A. Nj, Time Set by Congress for
= Setting Clocks Ahead
CONGRESS MAKES NO CHANGE
I 100000 Tons of Coal Saved Last
Year by Adhereing to the Day
liaht Saving Law

Two weeks ago we called attention
of our readers that beginning at 2
O'Clock a. m. on the last Sunday in
March the clock must be turned ahead
one hour, as congress had failed to
change the law adopted at previous
session. The congress in the spring
of 1918 provided that daylight saw.
ing would be in effect leach year. III
the following words:
"That at 2 o'clock ante-meridian OF
the last Sunday in March of each year
the standard time of each zone shall
be advanced one hour and at 2 O'Clock
ante-meridian of the last Sunday IN
October in each year the standard
time of each zone shall. by the retard-S
ing of one hour, be returned to the
mean astronomical time of the degree
of longitude governing said zone. =
Those responsible for the law claim
that the extra hour of daylight. is an
enjoyment and benefit to everybody
1t gives the opportunity to get out in
to the open and revel in the sunlight
and the fresh air during the best part
of the day. 1t makes both health and
wealth. OF course the average farm
er works from sunlight until sunset,
and the change of time does not, to
his way of thinking, benefit him very
much, but to the city man, the factory
man, the clerk and the employees in
stores and offices the change is most
welcome.
The United States fuel administra-
ton estimated that the law saved l.
100000 tons of coal for us. and sure
ly that seems worth while, for experts
say the coal is not going to last for
ever. and it must be conserved for the
coming generation.
On account of the millions to be fed
in Europe and all over the world this
year, of course, much Importance
ought to be attached to the value OF
daylight saving because Of what can
be done in the way of greater food
production. NO one has ever been
able to dispute the wisdom of old Ben
Franklin when he said, in one OF his
Poor Richard proverbs:
early to bed and early to rise, .S
Makes man healthy, wealthy and
0 wise"
